Immortality and Cultivation: This old man seeks enlightenment through mere survival.

Five days later, at Luolei Plain.

Lu Zaian guided the shuttle, which slowly came to a stop and landed on the ground.

Ahead lay a vast, open plain, interspersed with rolling hills and dense shrubs...

Boom——! !

The sky was filled with rolling thunderclouds, dark as ink, with flashes of lightning and booming sounds emanating from within the clouds.

"It is said that a powerful cultivator with lightning elemental power perished here in ancient times, which caused the anomaly."

It is often shrouded in dark clouds and thunderbolts strike from time to time.

Even Foundation Establishment cultivators dare not venture into the depths of the thunderclouds.

Thus it was named Thunderfall Plain..."

Lu Zaian gazed at the clouds on the horizon and murmured to himself.

He couldn't tell whether the rumor was true or false.

An existence whose mere demise can cause extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth that will not disappear for tens of millions of years.

This was beyond Lu Zaian's comprehension.

At least Lu Zaian knew that even Core Formation cultivators, or even Nascent Soul cultivators, could not achieve this.

There are also rumors that the founder of Zixiao Temple found his opportunity in this Luolei Plain and learned the Divine Thunder Technique.

This led to the establishment of the later Zixiao Temple...

Of course, some people say that this is a strange place that was formed naturally between heaven and earth.

The Yaoquan Hot Spring in Yaoquan Domain and the Wanfeng Forest in Fenghua Domain are like this... not caused by the fall of a powerful lightning-type expert.

There are many different opinions.

But there is one point that everyone agrees on.

That means if a cultivator were to fly high in the sky or in the clouds, they would definitely attract countless lightning strikes.

Even Foundation Establishment cultivators would find it difficult to withstand such a lightning strike.

Lu Zaian also heard that...

The Demon Spear Cult split up its forces to besiege Zixiao Temple.

When passing through the Thunderfall Plains, they only dared to summon their spirit ships to fly slowly close to the ground...

This allowed Zixiao Temple to catch its breath and some of its direct disciples to escape.

Now, these disciples have also joined the Demon-Slaying Alliance to participate in the revenge...

It can be said that Luolei Plain is a natural protective barrier behind Zixiao Temple.

Unfortunately, despite its advantageous location, Zixiao Temple ultimately failed to preserve its ancestral heritage...

"The news about the spiritual water came from the Haitian Chamber of Commerce."

Although it's unlikely that Pang Yun is lying to me, it's best to be cautious and investigate further myself.

"Passing through this Thunderstruck Plains will slow me down, and it will also make it easier for me to gather information..."

After pondering for a moment, Lu Zaian immediately transformed himself into an ordinary-looking mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator.

Once you enter Thunderfall Plains, you've reached the border between the Demon Spear Sect and the Chen family.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator would be too flashy, while a Qi Refining cultivator would be just right.

Moreover, according to Lu Zaian's understanding, there should still be quite a few Qi Refining cultivators loitering in Thunderfall Plains...

Sure enough, they only managed to travel a few dozen miles.

Lu Zaian then noticed fluctuations from a battle between Qi Refining cultivators ahead.

He didn't want to meddle in other people's business, and he didn't necessarily need to find this group of people to gather information.

However, a delicate shout rang out.

"Chen Zihao, do you think that changing your surname to Chen and joining the Chen family will make you rise to the top?"

The Chen family aided and abetted evil, acting as henchmen of the demonic path; they will be eradicated by the Demon-Slaying Alliance sooner or later!

Lu Zaian was taken aback. The Chen family? What a coincidence?

He immediately sped up and rushed over, while simultaneously extending his divine sense.

Four men were seen surrounding two injured women who had fallen to the ground.

The one who just shouted was one of the women who had fallen to the ground.

She was pretty with fair skin, and although she was injured, her slightly furrowed brows made her look more like a delicate white flower.

"Haha, Ning'er, you are so adorably innocent."

Does joining the Demon-Slaying Alliance guarantee success?

I studied under that eccentric old man Qi for several years...

Did he ever even look at me properly?

Have any resources been allocated to me?

Just because I'm not talented?

Just because I started learning late?

The young man at the head of the group, dressed in a brocade robe, had a sinister face and continued with a chilling laugh:

"As for what righteous path or demonic path I'm talking about, as long as it gives me spirit stones and makes me stronger, it's a good path!"

Ning'er, for the sake of our past as fellow disciples, I'll give you one last chance.

If you are willing to submit to me, help me lure out that old monster Qi...

"Then, when the time comes, take that old man's head to the Chen family to exchange for the reward, and you'll get a share too. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Liu Sining raised her eyebrows and glared angrily with her almond-shaped eyes:

"Pah! Chen Zihao, who do you think you are to dare insult Master?"

He saw through your wicked intentions long ago, which is why he was unwilling to teach you.

Now that I see it, I really did raise an ungrateful wretch. It's a disgrace to be from the same sect as you!

"Kill me or torture me, it's up to you. You want me to betray my master? Don't even think about it!"

Chen Zihao's face darkened, and he let out a strange laugh.

"Tsk tsk, good, you've got guts. Well then, my brothers and I will take turns with you first, and then we'll see if you're still so stubborn!"

The words fell.

The men next to Chen Zihao also burst into laughter, their eyes revealing lewd expressions.

"Exactly, let's see if she's stubborn or if we can just ignore her..."

"Haha, Brother Hao is so loyal, but I don't like her. How about I give the girl next to her to my little brother?"

The younger brother pointed at another injured woman next to him and leered.

She was also a beautiful woman.

She was just more voluptuous, and her clothes were torn in the battle, revealing a dazzling white patch.

Upon hearing their foul language, and imagining what was about to happen...

Liu Sining and Li Qian both trembled, their faces turning pale with despair.

They are now so badly injured that they cannot even attempt suicide.

Are we just left to be slaughtered?

Chen Zihao and his group approached step by step, about to reach out...

"Who's there? Show yourself!!"

Suddenly, Chen Zihao sensed an unfamiliar presence beside him, and the others quickly looked over.

A man with an ordinary appearance was slowly walking towards them.

"Sixth level of Qi Refining? Where did this brat come from? Get lost!"

Chen Zihao was in the middle of flirting with the two women when he saw someone interrupting him, so he scolded them without saying a word.

With three junior disciples at the sixth level of Qi Refining and himself at the seventh level of Qi Refining, he naturally had no fear of the newcomers.

"Heh, did you drive this road? Why are you telling me to get lost?"

To their surprise, the man not only didn't back down, but instead continued to approach them with a smile.

"Hmph, since you're looking for death, then so be it!"

Chen Zihao's face darkened. Thinking that this guy was rushing to play the hero and save the beauty, he immediately drew his knife and slashed at him!

"Ah, watch out!"

The two women lying on the ground thought they were saved when they saw other people appear.

Upon seeing that the other person's cultivation level was the same as theirs, their eyes dimmed, but they still kindly offered a reminder.

Lu Zaian grinned as he looked at the knife that was slashing at him at a snail's pace.

His current identity is only a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining, so he must hold back his performance.

Otherwise, he was afraid that a fart would kill the other side.

Lu Zaian dodged to the side, and at the same time, he brought his right hand together with five fingers, resembling a bird's beak, and pecked at Chen Zihao's wrist holding the knife.

"Ugh!!"

Chen Zihao cried out in pain, his long sword fell to the ground, and he quickly retreated.

When he looked down, he saw a bloody hole gushing blood from his wrist!

"Damn, a body cultivator? This is tricky, let's attack them all at once!"

Chen Zihao quickly took out the best hemostatic powder and sprinkled it on the wound before gritting his teeth and snarling.
