Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 868 Escape
Liu Ying chuckled softly, then said solemnly, "Alright, I need to prepare to cast a spell to escape from this Hao Lei Tower. This will take some time, so I ask Fellow Daoist Ning to protect me."

Immediately, Liu Ying sat cross-legged in mid-air and began to perform complex hand seals. A burst of red light suddenly appeared around her, and a long string of crimson runes began to circulate.

Ningfa glanced at her, then looked at the five-flame lamp in the sky, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

An hour later.

Ning Fa played with a crimson-colored ancient lamp in his hand with a look of delight. It was the Five Flame Lamp, which had been completely restored. A terrifying spiritual pressure emanated from it, making people feel uneasy.

At this moment, Liu Ying's figure had become slightly ethereal, and she solemnly said, "Fellow Daoist Ning, it's time for us to leave."

Ning Fa nodded, and then a beam of crimson light enveloped the two of them. After the light dissipated, the two had disappeared without a trace.

Not long after, a flash of light appeared, revealing Yan Jingchen's figure.

He slowly surveyed the place, a look of reminiscence in his eyes, and then he slowly walked into the wooden house.

Looking at the empty room, he frowned deeply.

After a long while, a flash of crimson light appeared around him, and he disappeared again.

Meanwhile, in the second level of the Haolei Tower, fierce battles continued to rage.

Although True Monarch Tianxu had previously revealed his two spiritual treasures, their main power was concentrated in the Thunder Prison Mountain Lord.

The other Nascent Soul cultivators were also powerful, so although they were all seriously injured, none of them perished.

After Ning Fa and Yan Jingchen disappeared one after another, the two sides broke out into fierce fighting again.

This time, it seems that due to Tianxu's betrayal, Xuanpo and Qiao Sheng did not unite with him.

Instead, they focused their attack on the already sealed exit of the second level of the Thunder Tower, while Tianxu Zhenjun was besieged by several of the enemy, fighting like a trapped beast.

Just then, as the sound of wind and thunder rang out, a black and white lightning flashed in the space, and a figure appeared, none other than Yan Jingchen.

His sword-like eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if he were troubled by something.

Both of them were startled by his sudden appearance.

The people of Leiyu Mountain were overjoyed, while the three from Fuling Palace couldn't help but show despair, since Yan Jingchen was now virtually invincible.

Tianxu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "This time, we, the Fuling Palace, admit defeat. We will give you the Haolei Tower and let the three of us leave."

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Thunder Prison Mountain burst into laughter, glaring at him with hatred, and said, "What a joke! You are already doomed, yet you still have the audacity to negotiate with us. Today is your death day!"

At this moment, the mountain lord of Leiyu Mountain had lost most of his right arm, along with a large part of his arm, and there was a terrible wound on his abdomen.

After all, he had just endured most of the power of the self-destruction of two spiritual treasures, which severely injured him.

If he were to recover from his current level, it would take at least a hundred years, and he might even be permanently restored to his peak condition.

This means that his path to becoming a deity has been completely cut off, so how could he not hate Tianxu Zhenjun to the bone?

But then Yan Jingchen calmly said, "Okay, but the three of you need to be placed under my soul restriction and guarantee your eternal loyalty to me."

Xuanpo and Qiao Sheng, who were attacking the exit barrier not far away, also stopped their actions.

Xuanpo's eyes were devoid of emotion, while Qiao Sheng's gaze flickered.

Tianxu Zhenjun laughed in fury: "You really think you've got me cornered? If you continue fighting, I guarantee you'll regret it!"

At this moment, the Lord of Thunder Prison Mountain also looked at Yan Jingchen with shock and anger, and shouted, "Yan Jingchen! Don't act on your own! Xuanpo and Qiao Sheng are one thing, but Tianxu must die today!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, Yan Jingchen looked at him expressionlessly.

The Lord of Thunder Prison Mountain felt a chill in his heart, but before he could make a move, a whooshing sound rang out around him, and several crimson lightning chains appeared out of thin air, attacking him at an unimaginable speed.

The Lord of Leiyu Mountain was shocked and opened his mouth to offer up a treasure.

Just then, a special black and white lightning rune shot out from Yan Jingchen's forehead.

The next moment, the Lord of Thunder Prison Mountain was struck by lightning, his body motionless, and several lightning chains immediately bound him, emanating a powerful restrictive force.

Only then did the Lord of Thunder Prison Mountain realize that he could no longer use his magical power.

"Yan Jingchen! What do you want to do?!" The Lord of Leiyu Mountain shouted in shock and anger.

Before he could finish speaking, a flash of lightning appeared beside him, and Yan Jingchen suddenly appeared, his right hand striking out with lightning speed towards his abdomen.

When Yan Jingchen stretched out his right hand, he was already holding a nascent soul that was several inches in size.

With a flash of lightning in his hand, the nascent soul vanished.

The lord of Leiyu Mountain, who had dominated Kowloon Sea for hundreds of years, thus perished.

This sudden turn of events naturally stunned everyone else.

Another Nascent Soul elder from Leiyu Mountain looked incredulous, as did the aged-looking Sikong Yuanlie and the Nascent Soul elder from Qianhun Palace.

However, the two traitors from Fuling Hall, Wang Jinglong and Jin Feng, only showed slight changes in expression and did not seem too surprised.

"From this day forward, I shall be the Lord of Thunder Prison Mountain."

Yan Jingchen calmly made a statement.

"Greetings, Lord Mountain Lord." Another elder from Thunder Prison Mountain reacted quickly and immediately bowed.

"Greetings, Mountain Lord." Jin Feng and Wang Jinglong also bowed respectfully. Sikong Yuanlie and the Nascent Soul cultivator from the Thousand Souls Hall glanced at them and offered their congratulations, but their hearts were filled with turbulent waves.

On the other side, Tianxu Zhenjun's pupils shrank sharply.

He then let out a long sigh, knowing that his chances of survival were slim.

At this moment, a special gray feather suddenly appeared in his right hand. He gathered spiritual energy at his fingertips on it and wrote many characters in an instant.

The next moment, a flash of gray light appeared, and the gray feather disappeared into the void.

A look of relief appeared in Tianxu Zhenjun's eyes.

At the same time, another clattering sound rang out around him, and several more lightning chains bound him up.

He made no attempt to defend himself, allowing the other party to do as he pleased.

Yan Jingchen appeared before him, looking at him calmly: "I'll give you one more chance, will you agree?"

Tianxu Zhenjun laughed heartily: "The victor is king, the loser is villain. Even if I, Tianxu, die, I will never be enslaved by others!"
Anyway, I'll be satisfied as long as I can see Shen Ao die before me.

But before I die, I want to ask you a question.

How exactly did you persuade Wang Jinglong, Jin Feng, and others to secretly surrender to you, and how did you manage to hide it from the Register of All Spirits?

Yan Jingchen smiled and transmitted his voice with slightly moving lips: "Because as early as ten thousand years ago, when I was the Palace Master of Fuling Hall, I had already deciphered this Register of Ten Thousand Spirits."

Although I am now a reincarnated being, some of my previously awakened memories are related to this, which allows me to make some people's names bypass the monitoring of the Register of All Souls.

The reason those people were willing to come to me is because I have the means to elevate their spirits and their bloodlines.

Upon hearing this, even the Heavenly Ruins True Monarch, who had seen countless storms, was extremely shocked.

He immediately realized what was happening and exclaimed in astonishment, "You could be...?"

But before he could finish speaking, a black bead appeared in his hand, its surface covered with flashing black runes, and a terrifying spiritual pressure that seemed capable of destroying the world rose up.

Even Yan Jingchen's expression changed drastically, and he blurted out, "This is... the Immortal-Slaying Pearl!"

"Haha, whoever you are, you'll be buried with me, Tianxu!"

Tianxu Zhenjun laughed maniacally, and then a terrifying black halo erupted, engulfing the second level of the Thunder Tower.

……

On the other side, above a dense forest of flames in the Heavenly Melting Fire Marsh, a flash of crimson light appeared, and Ning Fa and Liu Ying suddenly appeared.

A look of relief appeared in Liu Ying's eyes as she smiled at Ning Fa and said, "Fellow Daoist Ning, I have fulfilled the three promises I made. Now I need your help."

Ning Fachong solemnly said to her, "Fellow Daoist, please rest assured, I will never break my promise!"

If it weren't for Liu Ying, he wouldn't have had such a great opportunity.

Liu Ying smiled at him and then said, "As a spirit, I cannot stay outside for long."

Therefore, I hope to stay in Fellow Daoist Ning's Five Flame Lamp Spirit Treasure, as its attributes are quite compatible with mine.

I may have to stay by Fellow Daoist Ning's side for a while, during which time I will recover some of my energy.

"Then, when Fellow Daoist Ning encounters a powerful enemy, I am also willing to lend a hand, and I believe I can significantly enhance the power of Fellow Daoist Ning's Five Flame Lamp."

Ning Fa's heart stirred, and he nodded with a smile.

The firefly transformed into a streak of light and flew into Ningfa's Five Flame Lamp.

Ning Fa put away the Five Flame Lamp, suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and first took out the identity token of the Fuling Palace, wanting to contact Murong Zhaoxue to see if the others had escaped.

They soon received a reply. Murong Zhaoxue said that they had escaped successfully and were now on their way to Tianque City.

Furthermore, she told Ningfa that it was best not to use this identity token anymore, since the betrayal of those elders in the hall had rendered it unreliable.

Hearing this, Ning Fa felt relieved and didn't take it too seriously.

In fact, he also knew that Yan Jingchen might awaken memories of the Primordial Bead at this time, which might lead to suspicion falling on him.

However, Ning Fa was not particularly afraid. Even though he was no match for Yan Jingchen at this moment, he was confident that Yan Jingchen would be helpless against him.

Ning Fa couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow. In his opinion, Tianxu Zhenjun, Xuanpo, Qiao Sheng, and the other people from Fuling Palace trapped in Haolei Tower were probably in grave danger.

After this battle, the Fuling Temple was practically defunct.

It is ironic that this force, which has existed in the Nine Dragons Sea for tens of thousands of years, may be on the verge of extinction because of Daoist Yanyuan, the former master of the Fuling Palace.

According to the records of Daoist Yanyuan, Ning Fa's lifelong pursuit was to achieve immortality and ascend to the upper realm. Everything else was illusory and could be sacrificed. It is unlikely that he would be moved by anything.

Ning Fa breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes flashing.

This trip to the Heavenly Melting Fire Swamp was a great success, but I'm still a bit short of my target third-tier Origin Points.

After all, his previous goal was to obtain 700 Tier 3 Origin Points to trace the Ancient Origin Thunder Scripture, the Nascent Soul cultivation techniques of the Moon Goddess Technique, and that Sword Soul Bead.

There are still 200 points short, which means that two more Nascent Soul cultivators from the Sea Clan need to be killed. Thinking of this, Ning Fa looked to the east.
