"Sigh, this truly is the epito of dying for wealth!"
Yun Xiao, who had put the ambusher in a miserable state, finally saw his opponent's appearance at this mont. The person appeared to be a man around forty years old, with ridian Qi cultivation only at the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm.
In fact, after Yun Xiao had displayed those thods outside Thunder King Valley earlier, at least those cultivators below the Half-step Origin Seeking Realm level dared not attack him again.
Yet this man at the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm relied on his excellent ambush techniques and had an extre coveting for the Earth Rank Advanced Electric Silver Silk, thus he couldn't resist making a move.
The attack, which was initially bound to succeed, seed as though the opponent was imrsed in the excitent of acquiring the treasure, completely unguarded, but ultimately t with such a result. How could the ambusher be willing?
If he had known earlier that this black-clad youth's reaction and speed were also first-class, the ambusher might have employed a different approach.
Unfortunately, there is no 'if'. From the mont the ambusher made his move, his fate was already sealed. Yun Xiao naturally would not respond to the question of this failure but instead gently flicked his right hand, letting a blood-red fla fall, which in the blink of an eye turned the ambusher to ashes.
Tap tap tap!
While Yun Xiao was nonchalantly unfazed by this small mishap, footsteps again echoed from the hall's entrance, causing him to sigh, wondering why there was so much trouble.
"Haha, Xing, what a narrow road for enemies to et!"
Before Yun Xiao could speak, a figure in green clothing walking in from outside the hall paused slightly in surprise, then laughed before speaking. At this mont, Yun Xiao finally recognized him as none other than Li Qingran, the genius of Sky Thunder Valley, known as Five Thunder Child.
Earlier, outside, Yun Xiao and Li Qingran had so verbal disagreents, so Li Qingran remarked "narrow road for enemies," as in his view, this was truly a situation where enemies inevitably et.
Especially when Li Qingran saw the Silver Light Silk Net in Yun Xiao's hand, his eyes brightened instantly, recognizing it as a special weapon of Earth Rank Advanced.
Although Li Qingran was a renowned genius of Sky Thunder Valley, acquiring Earth Rank Advanced items still required a huge price, as such things were generally only of great use to those at the Earth Concealing Realm.
But the way of weapons is different. As long as one has the ability to possess and control, even a cultivator at the Mortal Realm Third Stage wielding a Holy-grade Weapon can unleash imnse power.
However, high-level weapons in the hands of low-level cultivators only result in the cri of possessing a coveted treasure. Without sufficient cultivation strength to match the weapon, one is bound to attract the envy of stronger foes, potentially losing their life.
At this mont, Yun Xiao in Li Qingran's eyes was undoubtedly like a child holding a gold ingot. How could he easily give up on such seemingly easy-to-grab treasures?
Previously, there wasn't enough to tempt Li Qingran into action, so he endured. However, now, the greed and fervor for the Electric Silver Silk, coupled with the disdain for the boy nad Xing, made him resolve to take action.
Li Qingran even contemplated that if he truly killed this boy nad Xing, not only would the Earth Rank Advanced net weapon be his, the exceptionally captivating sharp Wooden Sword would be his as well.
As a genius of Sky Thunder Valley at the Half-step Origin Seeking Realm, Li Qingran was full of confidence in himself. Even though Yun Xiao had easily slain a Peak of Qi Seeking Realm elder earlier, he considered it rely luck.
"Boy, if you know what's good for you, obediently hand over what you're holding and kowtow thrice, perhaps I'll spare your life!"
Li Qingran, full of pride, stared at the Silver Light Silk Net in Yun Xiao's hand, his words carrying a condescending tone. In his view, this was the last path he was offering the boy.
If the boy nad Xing knew better, he wouldn't mind truly sparing him, perhaps just crippling his Dantian.
"Are you so confident you can have your way with ?"
Regarding Li Qingran's words, Yun Xiao was completely unfazed. He knew his cultivation at the Late Stage of the Qi Seeking Realm was misleading. Hence, he decided to use this to deal with the annoying fellow.
As for the Five Thunder Child and the background of Sky Thunder Valley, Yun Xiao never regarded them. He dared to confront even the peak experts of the Spirit Fighting Comrce at the Peak of the Seeking Origin Realm, so how could he fear a half-step Origin Seeking Realm Five Thunder Child?
"Hmph, your little tricks can only scare those Qi Seeking Realm trash!"
Seeing this black-clad youth showing no awareness of being in dire straits, an inexplicable anger rose in Li Qingran's heart. In his mind, shouldn't these Qi Seeking Realm practitioners tremble upon seeing him?
"If you want to know whether it's just a small trick, try it yourself!"
Yun Xiao had no goodwill towards this inexplicably provocative guy. As his words fell, his figure was the first to move, and he did so with the montum of thunder.
"Courting death indeed!"
Seeing this young man in black dare to strike first, Li Qingran couldn't help but snort coldly. Then, a trace of silvery electric light flashed in his eyes. The next mont, he cupped his hands, and a Thunder Pearl, imbued with the power of thunder and lightning, appeared between his palms.
This Thunder Pearl was about the size of an egg, surrounded by lightning, looking extrely mystical. It ford very quickly, and just as Yun Xiao lunged forward, Li Qingran harshly threw it out, its target being Yun Xiao's chest, right at his vital spot.
"A Thunder Attribute ridian Technique, huh?"
Seeing this, Yun Xiao's eyes slightly narrowed. He thought to himself that this Li Qingran must have co from Sky Thunder Valley and seed to have received so special lineage. At the very least, attacks from Thunder Attribute ridian Techniques were rare even after his rebirth.
The power of thunder and lightning has extrely strong attack power and, if hit, would cause a paralyzing effect. Although temporary, a battle between experts is decided in an instant, and with this brief paralysis, the outco of this fight might well be concluded.
However, this always-invincible Thunder Pearl from Li Qingran faced Yun Xiao this ti. Though the power of the Thunderbolt Ancestral Vein on Yun Xiao's back hadn't reached its zenith, the Thunder Pearl attack from this half-step Origin Seeking Realm cultivator couldn't hurt Yun Xiao at all.
Instead, because the Thunder Attribute was so intense, it beca the nourishnt for Yun Xiao to enhance his Thunderbolt Ancestral Vein. After the power of thunder and lightning from those Thunder Pearls raged through his body, Li Qingran found that it seed to have not had much effect on Yun Xiao.
Li Qingran had originally been preparing his next attack. Once Yun Xiao showed signs of daze or rigidity, his attack would follow one after another, crushing the boy who dared to challenge him.
But at this mont, Yun Xiao's response took Li Qingran by surprise. Not only did the imagined scene of the opponent being blasted to bits by the Thunder Pearl not appear, but it also seed that the paralyzing power of the lightning had no effect on this boy nad Xingchen.
Nevertheless, Li Qingran's second attack had to be launched like an arrow on the string. Even if the opponent wasn't significantly affected by the Thunder Pearl, he was confident that under this second attack, he could truly defeat his opponent.
Or rather, this second attack was Li Qingran's true killing move. The initial Thunder Pearl attack was rely an embellishnt to make things easier for himself. He hadn't ruled out the possibility of this boy having so unforeseen thods to resolve the attack.
"Thunder Heart Break!"
A low, deep shout ca from Li Qingran's mouth. Imdiately afterward, Yun Xiao felt the silver light raging, and there appeared sothing akin to a human heart in Li Qingran's palm.
However, this heart had no flesh; the slowly pulsing Thunder Heart only had thunderpower. It bore so resemblance to the Thunder Pearl from earlier.
At this mont, what Li Qingran was displaying was a genuine Earth Rank Middle Level ridian Technique, activated by a special thod of their Sky Thunder Valley. The power it could unleash was such that even so true Origin Seeking Realm Early Stage practitioners might not dare to face it head-on.
Boom!
As Li Qingran's hands changed in seals, the pulsing Thunder Heart suddenly launched a wave of Thunder Power, striking Yun Xiao with the speed of lightning.
At this ti, the Thunder Heart seed truly alive. As it throbbed continuously, silvery thunderbolts erupted from it, just like a real heart pumping blood throughout the body.
Seeing the opponent struck by the Thunder Heart, Li Qingran couldn't help but reveal a hint of satisfaction on his face. He believed that while this boy might have so ans to deal with thunderpower, the Thunder Heart Burst attack was vastly different from the Thunder Pearl's previous raging onslaught.
In fact, when Yun Xiao was struck by the thunderpower of the Thunder Heart Burst, his body indeed stiffened slightly. However, a unique force within him imdiately erupted, absorbing the thunderpower once more into the Thunder Attribute Ancestral Vein on his back.
The waves of thunderpower striking Yun Xiao's body, unbeknownst to Li Qingran, turned entirely into nourishnt for enhancing Yun Xiao's Thunder Attribute Ancestral Vein. If the Five Thunder Child of Sky Thunder Valley knew this, who knows how he would feel?
Unfortunately, Li Qingran wasn't aware of any of this. He only knew that being hit by so much energy from his Thunder Heart Break, Yun Xiao's insides must have been ravaged by the thunderpower and utterly ruined. Now was the perfect ti to strike.
"Boy, rember in your next life, this is the consequence of not recognizing the situation!"
A voice filled with supre confidence emanated from Li Qingran. The next mont, the genius Five Thunder Child of Sky Thunder Valley lunged forward. He believed that just one light palm strike would be enough to kill this boy he detested so much.
