Not far away, a few Chosen dressed in the robes of the Shan Hai Immortal Sect watched the situation from a distance, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. It was obvious they were used to the daily antics of their Eldest Senior Brother and his servant, yet they were utterly helpless to do anything about it.
BOOM!
A bolt of lightning suddenly descended, striking the pavilion.
BUZZ! BUZZ!
Instantly, countless dense ripples surged outside the pavilion as the light of innurable formations flared to life.
Zhuge Changsheng, the Saint Heir of the Shan Hai Immortal Sect, abruptly looked up. Out of habit, he would always set up a defensive Formation for himself first, no matter where he went. Although he had created this one casually, he was still very confident in it. Below the Nascent Soul Realm, no one could break through.
However, under the bombardnt of that lightning, the Formation was now buzzing incessantly, showing signs of imminent collapse.
BOOM!
Another bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, its power even more terrifying than before. The impregnable Formation was torn apart directly, and the roof of the pavilion instantly turned to dust.
"Fuck!" Zhuge Changsheng subconsciously cursed, hastily retrieving several array flags from his Space Ring.
While swiftly rearranging the Formation, he glanced toward the crowd.
What in the world are those two doing? he wondered.
「The scene shifts back to a mont earlier.」
The duel between Zhang Yuge and Ji Zidian had entered a white-hot stage. His expression was no longer as relaxed or confident as before; instead, it was filled with solemnity and concentration.
He had to admit he had underestimated Ji Zidian. He had also underestimated the Sanqing Thunder Art and the Innate Thunder Saint Body. It turned out that his pride in his own talent and control over the Thunder Technique was not his alone. The teenage girl across from him was in no way his inferior.
Most importantly, his Realm was clearly higher than Ji Zidian’s. Even though he had suppressed his Cultivation Level, his comprehension and control were still there. What does this imply? It ans that if Ji Zidian were at the sa Realm and Cultivation Level as , both at the Ninth Heaven of the Golden Core Realm, my own attainnts in the Thunder Technique... would most likely be utterly crushed by her!
This was sothing Zhang Yuge could not accept. In this duel, he could only win. A draw was not an option. A draw was as good as a loss! If he lost, the prestige the Longhu Immortal Sect had painstakingly built over the years would suffer an unimaginable blow.
So much for being the true lineage of the Thunder Technique. It would all be a joke!
...
"Five Thunder Spell!"
Zhang Yuge put away his Folding Fan. A purple light flashed in his pupils as his hand seals changed with blinding speed. The void behind him trembled, giving birth to streaks of five-colored lightning. They represented the Five Elents of heaven and earth. Wood begets Fire, Fire begets Earth, Earth begets tal, tal begets Water, and Water in turn begets Wood.
Five Elents Divine Thunder!
"Go!"
With the hand seal complete, he thrust it forward. A hundred-zhang-long five-colored Thunder Dragon erged from his hands and roared toward its target.
"Not good!"
"Scatter! Scatter, quickly!"
"Heavens, has Zhang Yuge gone mad?"
The crowd descended into chaos, a flicker of heart-stopping fear in the eyes of the many Chosen as they fled in all directions. The power of this attack was so imnse that even if they were caught in it, they’d be half-dead at best.
This is deadly!
The Longhu Immortal Sect was most famous for its Thunder Technique. But within the Thunder Technique, the most renowned arts weren’t the ones with long, flashy nas. It was the simplest of them all: the Five Thunder Technique!
There was a running joke in the cultivation world. If you got into a conflict with an ordinary disciple from the Longhu Immortal Sect and saw them use the Five Thunder Technique, you shouldn’t panic; just fight them. They were definitely trash. The Five Thunder Technique was the sect’s introductory spell.
However, if you encountered a true powerhouse from the Longhu Immortal Sect and saw them use the Five Thunder Technique, you had to run. Run as fast as you possibly could. Because this technique was the core foundation of the Longhu Immortal Sect. It was just that when their cultivation was still shallow, disciples were completely unable to grasp its true aning, so the power they could unleash was less than one ten-thousandth of its potential.
The higher one’s Realm, the deeper their understanding of the Five Thunder Technique beca.
Without a doubt, Zhang Yuge was certainly a powerhouse. The appearance of the Five Thunder Technique ant he was no longer holding anything back.
...
Ji Zidian gazed at the charging Thunder Dragon, her eyes betraying no fear. Instead, they burned with a surging, exuberant battle intent. She ford a seal with her hands, and the mark on her glabella began to shine with even greater brilliance.
"Ten Thousand Thunder Funeral!"
CRACKLE!
Hundreds upon hundreds of straight, destructive bolts of lightning descended from the Firmant. The two attacks collided, and devastating shockwaves spread out rapidly. The dazzling light illuminated the surrounding area, and in a silent instant, the streets and buildings on both sides were reduced to dust. The once clean, flat ground now looked as if it had been scorched for a thousand years, leaving it charred black and utterly ravaged.
Everyone had already retreated before the power of the clash had fully erupted. Staring at the scene of devastation, it was hard to believe that the two combatants had only displayed the strength of the Core Formation Stage.
Even more unbelievable was what they saw next.
On the ruined street, Zhang Yuge and Ji Zidian stood facing each other. Although they were covered in so dust and had a few scratches, it was clear their injuries were not serious. It was normal for Zhang Yuge to withstand such a terrifying blast of power. But why was Ji Zidian still standing?
Even after fighting to this point, Ji Zidian had not been defeated.
Could the Sacred Body truly be this powerful... to a completely unreasonable degree?
...
"Junior Sister Ji is truly remarkable! The Innate Thunder Saint Body certainly lives up to its reputation!" Qin Guangling exclaid with delighted admiration from a nearby rooftop where he watched the scene unfold.
Li Zuoyue was even more excited. "Junior Sister Ji is incredible! To think she can fight Zhang Yuge to a standstill... By that logic, doesn’t that an I’m on the sa level as Zhang Yuge now?"
Hearing this, Huang Yunchong shot him a strange look. "Junior Sister Ji is the one who’s impressive. What’s that got to do with you?"
