Above the vast East Sea Ocean, the sea boiled and the sky turned upside down for a mont.
Within a certain range, the seawater, agitated by the great battle between Lei Jun and Qi Shuo, dispersed in all directions. This created an impression as if the sea had sunk, revealing the seabed below.
A large amount of seawater, heated by the scorching starlight or the gloomy Earthly Fire, evaporated into steam. This steam filled the air, forming a scene resembling a great fog.
Under the veil of rising steam, the view of this sea area twisted, becoming surreal.
Shangguan Sheng, a commander of the Great Tang Divine Strategy Army who had stopped in the distance, now doubted whether the scene before him was real. Qi Shuo, a High rit Elder from the Yellow Sky Sect, slain on the spot by Lei Jun, a Celestial Master Mansion High rit Elder who might not even be a fraction of his age!
Shangguan Sheng was sowhat familiar with Qi Shuo’s strength. The two had even co to blows before, more than once in fact.
Qi Shuo did not cultivate the Life Skill Human Script Talismans of the Taoist Talisman Sect, nor the Destiny Star God. However, under the joint empowernt of his various life-bound thods like the Golden City Talisman, Burning Wheel Talisman, and Circle Stars Array Fight, he did not fear close-quarters combat masters among his enemies.
Whether in terms of personal defense or movent speed, Qi Shuo was quite outstanding among cultivators of the sa realm.
Thus, even though his Yin Fire Tiger mainly inflicted damage with Nine Abyss True Fire from mid-range during attacks, he was confident in controlling the distance. This made it difficult for Martial Arts Experts who wanted to approach him to achieve their goal.
If soone did manage to get close to him, Qi Shuo, with his superior defenses, would disengage imdiately after contact, giving him a high margin for error.
However, he could not withstand Lei Jun, who was faster and more ferocious than him.
Lei Jun’s continuous and profound accumulation during his ti in the Middle Three Heavens allowed his Mana to unleash Divine Skills with power surpassing others of the sa realm.
Both Talismans originated from the Wind Riding Talisman. However, Lei Jun’s Heavenly Travel Talisman was even faster than Qi Shuo’s Burning Wheel Talisman.
More importantly, even though their Circle Stars Array Fights originated from the sa source and looked identical, Lei Jun’s proved stronger in a direct clash.
The Doumu Spiritual Officer Manifestation continuously broke through Qi Shuo’s Golden City Talisman and Yin Fire Tiger.
Moreover, in recent years, Lei Jun had been refining the Balance of Motion and Stillness he had acquired through ng Shaojie.
In monts of action and stillness, the variations were infinitely profound. Though seemingly unremarkable, they always managed to catch Qi Shuo at the most awkward positions and critical monts.
Qi Shuo, despite his extensive battle experience, could not keep up with Lei Jun’s rhythm. He had encountered an opponent who was stronger than him in every aspect.
Shangguan Sheng did not know the various details of Lei Jun’s previous cultivation. However, as a Martial Arts Expert who had observed the battle between Lei Jun and Qi Shuo, he keenly realized sothing. Lei Jun’s strikes, though seemingly violent and forceful, had rhythm changes between offense and defense, motion and stillness, that were extrely precise and superior to his opponent’s.
It was a well-deserved defeat for Qi Shuo!
This Lei Jun... what an exceptional martial prodigy!
At this mont, Shangguan Sheng’s feelings beca complex as he looked at Lei Jun, who was enveloped in the rising steam. This Elder from Dragon Tiger Mountain truly exemplifies the old saying: Skill need not always be displayed, but one must never be without it. Though he rarely engages in fights, this Elder Lei never fails to astound whenever he takes action. To be honest, I was sowhat ntally prepared for Lei Jun’s Cultivation Strength and his gifted talents. After all, not long after this Elder Lei reached the Seventh Layer of Heaven Realm, he successfully killed Lin Chi, a Lin Clan Elder from Jiangzhou. But in just a few short years, Elder Lei’s strength seems to have beco even more formidable... Shangguan Sheng thought.
After all, Lin Chi had been constrained by the spiritual energy of his ancestral land. This prevented him from exerting his full strength. Furthermore, besides his life-bound sword, all his other Body-protecting Magical Artifacts had been destroyed.
Today’s Qi Shuo, on the other hand, was completely different.
Even though the Yellow Sky Altar was destroyed, Qi Shuo was an Upper Three Heavens practitioner of the Talisman Sect. Unlike other Yellow Sky Dao followers whose strength might be affected, he could still perform to his full capabilities.
Moreover, he was assisted by Magical Treasures like the Nine Abyss Pill Fire Fan.
Yet Lei Jun, on the other side, was unard.
As a result, Lei Jun, indeed with just his pair of fists, literally blasted Qi Shuo apart!
This might be partly because Lei Jun’s strength far exceeded Qi Shuo’s expectations. This caused Qi Shuo to misjudge and engage in a direct confrontation, leading to his destruction. If he had focused solely on escape, Lei Jun would not have been able to defeat him so quickly, even though Qi Shuo’s speed was inferior. But even so, the gap between them was real and substantial.
Among the cultivators of the Seventh Heavenly Layer in the Great Tang today, few could match Lei Jun’s strength.
Wait a minute... Shangguan Sheng’s gaze suddenly sharpened as he thought of Qi Shuo’s Nine Abyss Pill Fire Fan, his expression becoming more serious.
What was the origin of that black lightning Lei Jun used to subdue Qi Shuo’s Magical Treasure? Although the Celestial Master Mansion is renowned for its Thunder thods, I have no recollection of such Mysterious Thunder. This Xuanxiao Divine Thunder is silent yet imnsely powerful, capable of eroding an opponent’s Magic Artifacts and Magical Treasures. Could it be unique to Lei Jun, sothing he created or researched himself?
Shangguan Sheng naturally thought of so precedents.
Tang Xiaotang and her Gold Lightning. Shen Qubing and his White Thunder. Now, Lei Jun and his Mysterious Thunder. Was it also derived from his intrinsic talent and Root Bone? It would explain why Master Lei’s cultivation had improved so rapidly before.
Today’s trip was truly worthwhile. Not only did we successfully crush the Yellow Sky Sect and uncover the connection between Zhou Peng and the others with them, but I also finally witnessed the true strength of Lei Chongyun from Dragon Tiger Mountain... Shangguan Sheng exhaled a long breath.
In so ways, this was a gain not inferior to breaking through the Yellow Sky Altar.
Lei Jun, a disciple of Yuan Mobai, is proficient in Corporeal Life Mastery cultivation and chose the Destiny Star God as his First Divine Faculty. When motionless, he is still; but once he moves, it is like a tsunami and mountains collapsing. His fighting style is fiercely violent, akin to that of a Martial Arts Expert.
