Born with immortal seed

Chapter 710 Thunder Magic Unleashed, Omniscience Takes Over

Dark clouds pressed down, making the top of Lankeshan Mountain pitch black, and the wind and rain stopped.

During his travels in the Central Region, Ge Cang inherited the ancient thunder magic and, with the help of the Great Dao True Mark, embarked on a path different from that of 99% of thunder cultivators in the cultivation world.

Just like the distinction between modern sword cultivators and ancient sword cultivators, they are both sword cultivators, but they are completely different cultivation modes.

No longer confined to specific thunder magic, but rather to comprehend the true meaning and directly activate it with ancient incantations.

In other words, whether it's the Qian Tian Yuan Yang Divine Thunder Net or the Xuan Ming Yi Qi Wu Xiang Divine Thunder, they are just techniques, and in his hands, they don't have much difference in power.

However, due to the unique characteristics of lightning magic, the manifested lightning magic has its own merits and different effects.

Ge Cang slowly raised his left hand, which seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. There was a clear flow of silvery-white lightning on his forearm, deep and intense.

His right hand, like a hook, dug into flesh and pulled out a lightning feather stained with blood, the terrifying aura of lightning punishment swirling around it.

"Thunder and marsh give birth to the divine, penetrating the most profound and subtle... Summon the Thunder God and Lightning Goddess to purify heaven and earth!"

The lightning feather that Ge Cang buried in his body was obtained from an ancient relic.

They initially planned to refine it into a magical artifact, but later discovered that it contained an extremely refined and powerful will that was difficult to control.

Even after refining it, placing it into the dantian (lower abdomen) is difficult.

He decided to merge into Lei Yu's body and spend every day with him, hoping to develop a stronger connection with him.

Currently, wielding the Thunder Feather can increase the damage of lightning magic by more than 50%.

With only three strikes of power, the Thunder Feather will dim and lose its spirit beyond that, requiring it to be nurtured from scratch.

His path was originally smooth and secure, progressing in tandem.

Although the two paths require twice the effort to comprehend their true meaning, it's not a big problem for someone of Ge Cang's aptitude.

After returning from the ancient ruins and obtaining the true trace of the Great Dao, the Dao of Thunder advanced by leaps and bounds, while the foundation of Wood, which gives birth to all things, lagged behind.

The simplest solution is to abandon the idea of ​​walking on two legs and focus on one thing.

With his talent, he could advance to the late Nascent Soul stage in a short time.

However, those who have reached this point and achieved such success are all ambitious and have strong self-confidence. How could they easily give up the unique path they embarked on by chance and return to a mediocre and ordinary life?

Ge Cang consulted ancient books and found a solution.

They took five pieces of ancient wood cores, set up an array, and planned to spend a hundred or even two hundred years improving the Great Dao of Wood.

Fortunately, the Plum Blossom Heavenly Star Pill sent by Bai Zichen solved this problem, saving him a lot of time and allowing him to break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm ahead of schedule.

At the same time, at the moment of breaking through the realm, the true meaning of "wood gives birth to all things" was elevated once again, and finally, both legs were able to move forward in harmony.

As the lightning feather was swung, the ancient tree behind him seemed to awaken and shook violently.

Nearly half of the branches scattered into specks of light, leaving only thunder, crimson, silver, and deep purple in this space...

Various kinds of heavenly lightning crowded together, and their power was far beyond what a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator could achieve.

Even the Great True Lord of September, wielding the Heavenly Treasure, wearing the Thunder Lord's robes and the Thunder God's crown, was no more than half as powerful as the Great True Lord of September during the war between humans and demons.

The two Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the Tianyu Sect couldn't even utter a cry for help; their magical treasures exploded one by one, and they were utterly overwhelmed by the sea of ​​lightning.

Even when facing a heavenly tribulation, there is always a chance for people to catch their breath.

At this moment, however, they used a saturation attack to directly destroy their opponent.

First, their magical artifacts shattered, and then the spiritual light on their bodies dimmed, though it was obscured by the lightning and could not be clearly seen.

Having experienced countless battles, Lu Yuanjia decisively abandoned his physical body, and his nascent soul hid on a cloud banner, transforming into a white cloud to drift away.

However, he clearly underestimated the terrifying power of the divine lightning outside. The white cloud was torn to shreds by the lightning in less than ten breaths.

The Nascent Soul has no chance to escape into the void. The space is shrouded by ancient trees, and the roaring thunder will interrupt any attempt to open the void.

In the blink of an eye, the two Nascent Soul cultivators were completely annihilated, leaving no trace in the world to indicate that they had ever been there.

With only one target remaining, Ge Cang once again wielded the Thunder Feather, causing all the lightning to converge and envelop Fei Siyai more and more tightly.

"How can this person not feel tired? He hasn't even used up his true energy yet!"

Fei Siyi's face turned pale. The fifth-order jade talisman, which was said to be invincible below the Nascent Soul stage, had faded to the point that the color of the light shield was almost transparent.

He had intended to wear down his opponent until he was exhausted and gave up, but Ge Cang showed no signs of fatigue; instead, he himself was on the verge of collapse.

Despite employing various methods to resist and neutralize the lightning, and even when drawing upon the demonic energy of one's natal spirit beast, all efforts proved insufficient.

Click!

The pressure on the jade talisman's protective shield intensified, threatening to collapse at any moment. Fei Siya felt a death crisis looming over him.

The worst-case scenario I had considered was that we would be unable to break through Ge Cang's defenses and take Rotten Axe Mountain today.

Unexpectedly, the tone shifted to whether or not they could leave alive.

"We can't wait any longer, we must take the initiative to change! What if Ge Cangzhen is a freak like Bai Zichen, and he's not afraid of running out of true energy? I might really perish here..."

Fei Siyan had a bad feeling. Although the possibility was extremely low, the Qingfeng Sect had produced a heaven-defying sword cultivator who could not be regarded by common sense.

Previously, everyone thought that even if a Nascent Soul sword cultivator had a high level of swordsmanship, at most the power of a single sword strike was equivalent to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Even with numerous fifth-tier flying swords in hand, one still needs sufficient true essence to activate them.

Otherwise, what difference would there be between one fifth-tier flying sword and ten?

But as we have seen in the end, Bai Zichen not only has the strength to contend with the Nascent Soul stage, but he can also defeat opponents of higher levels.

This became the most exaggerated achievement in the cultivation world after the great changes that shattered the connection between heaven and earth.

Whether it was the Moral Sect, which had been the hegemon for hundreds of thousands of years, or the Taibai Sword Lord, who single-handedly changed the course of swordsmanship and created the Sword Sect's meteoric rise.

I searched through all the biographies of these people and found no one who could write such an exaggerated record at the Nascent Soul stage.

The most frequent praise that Master Jiuyuan had for Fei Siyai was his decisiveness and ruthlessness.

He had no relatives or friends, no teachers or clansmen in his heart, and even the inheritance of his sect did not rank very high in his eyes, let alone the common people and his moral beliefs.

There is only one very simple goal: to live a long and healthy life.

Master Fei Siya once praised him for discarding burdens and focusing on the Dao, saying that only in this way could one achieve the Great Dao.

His eyes turned cold, and he reached out to grab the raccoon on his shoulder. With a calm expression, he tore open the raccoon's chest and plunged three short daggers inside, without a single drop of blood seeping out.

The silver fox was his natal spirit beast, and its demonic power had been drained from it before, so how could it resist its master?

This fourth-tier high-grade spirit beast, which could be considered the nemesis of ground formations, never expected to die at the hands of its master who had been with it for hundreds of years.

"I follow the ancient method, to unravel the mystery of bloodlines and communicate with the netherworld... I pray to the ancestors of the heavens, who can see through the yin and yang and witness this utmost sincerity... The blood curse is complete, beyond the comprehension of gods and ghosts!"

Fei Siya directly sacrificed his natal spirit beast, and his aura also plummeted, as if a piece of his internal organs had been ripped out.

He was hunched over, coughing incessantly, his hands covered in blood and grime.

On the raccoon's body, blood-red lines lit up one after another, allowing the three daggers to absorb enough blood and become covered with a layer of blood film.

While coughing, he pulled out a dagger and sent it into the void.

A flash of blood, a blur of movement, and he forcibly fled a thousand feet away.

Without the slightest hesitation, he used the second dagger as well, and this time his figure appeared dozens of miles away.

"Once you leave the sea of ​​thunder, no matter how amazing your lightning escape technique is, you can't catch up with my specially enhanced Blood Shadow Escape... Let's go back to the Central Region first. No matter how good Rotten Axe Mountain is, let the Heavenly Desolate Sect take it themselves in the future. I won't take that risk again!"

Fei Siya sacrificed his natal spirit beast to obtain the Blood Shadow Secret Technique, which allowed him to escape at a speed approaching that of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

It can also ignore any restrictions and enter and exit freely. Even if it falls into a cave, it can still break through the boundary and escape back.

With the last dagger drawn, a flash of blood appeared, and without the restriction of Ge Cang's power, it was normal for him to escape over a thousand miles in one breath.

With a flash of blood, Fei Siya disappeared without a trace, having clearly escaped successfully.

Ten breaths later, a short-range teleportation array, which had been set up at the foot of the main peak of Rotten Axe Mountain at some unknown time, began to operate, emitting a buzzing sound.

A flash of white light appeared, and surprisingly, Fei Siyai, who should have already fled far away, appeared on the teleportation array.

He was clearly bewildered as well, and after spinning around twice, he realized he was back on Rotten Axe Mountain, and his expression changed drastically.

"Which fellow Daoist lent a helping hand?"

With a flash of lightning, Ge Cang had already reached the top of Fei Si Cliff, engulfing him once again in the sea of ​​lightning.

Now that they're on guard, it'll be much harder to repeat the same trick.

Furthermore, Fei Siya couldn't produce a second natal spirit beast of such a high level, so he could only open up the rudimentary form of his cave to resist the heavenly lightning.

"The three favors have been settled... If the Sword Lord returns, tell him to find me at the place where we first met if he needs anything... Remember to tell him that the great calamity has not yet ended, and we must not be careless... Even if the demonic scourge is over, the demonic calamity still exists!"

A black-robed cultivator suddenly appeared, seemingly appearing from nowhere.

He glanced at Ge Cang deeply, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Your chance of reaching the Nascent Soul stage is even greater than mine. I offer this bow in humility, hoping to borrow a wisp of your fortune. I hope you will not take offense."

He closed his mouth, took a few steps toward the horizon, turned into a wisp of green smoke, and disappeared into the distance.

"Evil Life Sect Mountain Knows!"

Ge Cang's seclusion does not mean he has no knowledge of the important figures in the cultivation world.

The Evil Life Sect Master Shan Zhi shone brightly in the great war between humans and demons. High-level cultivators all knew how much his Omniscient Dao had played a role. His calculations were flawless, and on the battlefield, it was as if he had a complete map.

The human race always gets advance notice of the demon race's movements.

Besides planting traitors and turning demons against the demon race, Shan Zhi's omniscient divination played a significant role.

Moreover, Shan Zhihuan and Bai Zichen have a good relationship and have collaborated several times. Ge Cang immediately associated him with Shan Zhihuan's appearance and demeanor.

In fact, Yamashita had foreseen this calamity at Rotten Axe Mountain, with no way to reverse it.

But he still went to the scene, thinking that if he could rescue Bai Zichen's successor, he could repay the favor he owed back then.

Unexpectedly, Ge Cang, a Great True Monarch who was not included in their calculations, suddenly arrived and reversed the situation, single-handedly killing Fei Siya and Tianyu Sect members, leaving them either dead or fleeing.

With a thought, he saw that Fei Siya would use a secret technique to escape to a place 3,300 miles away.

Shan Zhi had already laid an ambush in advance, setting up a teleportation array at the calculated location, with the teleportation point being the main peak of Lankeshan.

That short-distance teleportation array was originally set up by him in Rotten Axe Mountain, with the intention of using it to take away the disciples of the Time Sword Lord's lineage.

Now that the plan has changed, it's a perfect trap, waiting for Fei Siyan to fall into it willingly.

This triggered teleportation array is harmless and has a short range, so many detection spells will simply ignore it.

However, in certain situations, it can play a crucial role.

Of course, this is also thanks to Shan Zhi's omniscient supernatural powers, which concealed the secrets of heaven from Fei Siyuan.

That's why, after dispelling the Blood Shadow Escape, he was in a daze and voluntarily stepped into the teleportation array.

Under normal circumstances, even if Fei Siyan is careless, the probability of him getting infected will not exceed 10%.

Shan Zhi did not linger, as it was indeed inappropriate for someone of his status to get involved.

The Evil Life Sect has always been aloof from the world, but it has many reservations when facing the Datong Army.

It was fortunate that the Grand True Monarch of the Nine Yuan Sect returned this time; if it had been some hidden sect, they would have retreated long ago.

It's all because that family and the Evil Life Sect came from the same lineage, but they wanted to take different paths and practice different philosophies, so they eventually parted ways.

A once-happy sect split into two branches, each keeping to itself and embarking on completely different paths.

"Feisi, your death is near!"

Ge Cang roared, and the ancient tree in the nascent cave, which had originally towered into the clouds, was now shorter.

But he still wouldn't stop; he wanted to add more fuel to the fire.

With a wave of his hand, the ancient tree sank downwards again, and the lightning in the Divine Thunder Net was reduced to pure black.

Despite his best efforts, Fei Siya could not stop himself from sliding deeper and deeper into the abyss, sinking ever deeper into the sea of ​​lightning.

The blood sacrifice to his natal spirit beast had been successful, but then he was inexplicably sent back via the teleportation array. This blow was too great.

They originally had the resources to overdraw their strength for a protracted war, but now they can no longer do so.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Fei Siya's physical body was completely destroyed by the heavenly lightning.

Ge Cang even tried to capture his nascent soul and interrogate him, but before he could do anything, the nascent soul expanded and exploded with a devastating wave.

The ancient tree protected Ge Cang, and only after the storm subsided and the thunder dissipated did they see that the peak had been ground down by a hundred feet.

If Fei Si Cliff hadn't been no longer at its peak, and if most of its power hadn't been blocked by the endless sea of ​​lightning, this final strike should have caused several peaks to disappear simultaneously.

Right now, all that remains of the towering ancient tree behind Ge Cang is a bare stump covered in scorch marks.

Green shoots are slowly growing on the tree stump, but it is unknown how long it will take for them to return to their previous state.

……

Rotten Axe Mountain.

Ge Cang took the list from the weak-looking Ma Ruoxi. The list was filled with names, many of which he had heard of.

When disciples were initially selected to go to the Eastern Region, only the most outstanding members of the Qingfeng Sect had the opportunity.

After reading it, I sighed inwardly and closed the list.

The Qingfeng Sect suffered heavy losses in this battle, with more than 700 disciples killed, including four Core Formation Realm cultivators.

Among them was the former sect leader, Weidao.

He stood guard at the pass, fighting to the death with several Core Formation cultivators from the Tianyu Sect, refusing to retreat even a single step.

This battle was undoubtedly the one in which the Qingfeng Sect suffered the greatest losses since its rise to power.

If Ge Cang had arrived any later, everyone would have been killed.

After the great battle, the fluctuations in energy returned to normal, the air temperature changed drastically, and the wind and snow came unexpectedly, covering Rotten Axe Mountain with a layer of silver in the blink of an eye.
