Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 900 Support Arrives
Time flies like an abacus bead being manipulated; three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

No battle took place that day. Luofeng Mountain received reinforcements, led by Xuanxiao Zhenjun of Leiyin Pavilion and Qingyang Zhenjun of Lingxu Sect, both of whom were Nascent Soul Ninth Level cultivators.

The Phoenix Palace was filled with distinguished guests. Xuanxiao Zhenjun wore a towering crown and an ochre Taiji Bagua robe. His square face exuded an air of authority without anger.

The crown was embroidered with thunder patterns using five colors of silk: blue, red, yellow, white, and black, and its light flashed from time to time.

Qingyang Zhenjun looked like a thin, old man from the mortal world. His gray Taoist robe was merely a first-class ceremonial garment, and he was unkempt and looked somewhat slovenly.

Xuanxiao Zhenjun coughed and said:
"When the opinions of several fellow Daoists reached the rear, all the True Lords attached great importance to them. They all felt that since the decision to start the war had been made, they should show their strength and take down the enemy as soon as possible, so as not to delay and cause any unforeseen complications."

Fellow Daoist Hongyue led ten True Monarchs from the East Sea cultivation world to assist in the battle. Now I have brought more than thirty True Monarchs here, at your disposal.

Each sect has cleared out its inventory and produced over 1.2 million Yin Thunder Pearls, all of which are at least Tier 3, including over 100,000 Tier 4 Thunder Pearls. We need to produce results as soon as possible.”

His voice wasn't loud, but it was firm and menacing, reverberating through the hall with a thunderous impact.

Lei Yin Pavilion activated an ultra-long-distance teleportation array that spanned continents. He personally went to the cultivation world of the East Sea and persuaded them with reason and emotion. The East Sea agreed to contribute to the struggle between Taoism and Buddhism.

Another very important point is that this year, various forces have successively discovered that the Buddhist cultivators have used unknown methods to wreak havoc on the mortal community and low-level cultivators. This is an act of undermining the foundation of the cultivation world, which has aroused the wrath of all high-level cultivators.

Therefore, while the people's hearts were still at ease, support forces were quickly assembled.

Azure Dragon True Monarch wore a joyful smile, the corners of his mouth uncontrollably turning upwards:
"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Xuanxiao and Fellow Daoist Qingyang would be leading the team. Our strength is unprecedented, and we will surely be able to catch the enemy off guard. Perhaps we will be able to break through the first layer of the Buddhist formation in a few years."

He hadn't expected the support to be so substantial; the underlying interests were a difficult matter to coordinate, even more exhausting than the battle itself.

He believes that if the plan proceeds smoothly, there will be results within three to five years.

Qingyang Zhenjun scratched his head and pulled at his hair, then pouted and said:
"We don't have many years; we need to see results this year."

After doing the math, everyone discovered that the resources consumed over the past two years exceeded the budget by more than three times. The True Demon Tribulation had depleted the foundation of many sects, and two hundred years was simply not enough time to recover much.

As a result, many sects discovered that they simply could not afford a prolonged, high-intensity war of attrition.

His expression turned serious, and he transmitted his voice:

'If these sects can't play a role in the battle, they can only rely on us major sects for support. How can that be acceptable!'

Therefore, at least one layer of the Buddhist formation must be breached this year, otherwise the allied forces risk disintegration.

When necessary, all Nascent Soul Stage 9 cultivators, except for True Monarch Miaoyou, must be present to participate in the battle.

Qingyang Zhenjun sighed inwardly, "If such a decision had been made earlier, how could the Buddhist cultivators have grown so powerful!"

Unfortunately, there's no going back in life, and they now have to take responsibility for their past decisions.

If the power of the Buddhist sects continues to expand, the top sects will be the ones most affected, as their interests and security space will inevitably be infringed upon.

Azure Dragon True Lord nodded slightly, "This humble Taoist understands. Let us now make arrangements for the upcoming battles."

Then give everyone three days to rest and regroup, after which we'll launch a full-scale attack!

The Divine Wood Sect is not afraid of such losses, but as more and more allies become unable to continue, their situation will not be good either.

The group began to discuss how to proceed with the battle, and finally decided that Azure Dragon True Lord, Mysterious Cloud True Lord, and others would form another large army to attack Zhilan Temple, which was a thousand miles away.

After the tasks were assigned, True Lord Qingluan asked eagerly:
“Fellow True Lords, the spiritual veins of Falling Phoenix Mountain really cannot support so many high-level cultivators stationed here. If this continues, it will be inevitable that the grade of Xiao's spiritual vein will drop.”

Her voice trembled with a sob, and a barely suppressed anger rose within her. This was too much!
The spiritual veins were already under immense strain, and now with so many high-level cultivators arriving, the collapse of the spiritual veins will happen very quickly.

Qingyang Zhenjun grinned and said:

"Haha, of course we've considered this issue. We won't sit idly by and watch the grade of the spiritual vein drop."

The allied forces have found two mid-grade fourth-tier spiritual veins and have reached an agreement with the sects that possess them. The teleportation array is under construction and will be completed in as little as half a month or as quickly as seven or eight days.

However, for safety reasons, the teleportation array needs to be built inside your sect's gate and will be dismantled after the war ends.

"The spiritual veins of Luofeng Mountain should hold out for another half a month, right?"

The spiritual veins of the Nanhua Sect survived the True Demon Tribulation without any decline in their grade, and this time, they will not allow any damage to the spiritual veins.

"Supporting for half a month is no problem, but..."

Azure Phoenix True Lord changed the subject and tentatively asked:

"What should we do if the teleportation array is still not built in half a month?"

Long-distance teleportation arrays must be built on high-level spiritual vein nodes for more stable operation, so she can accept that the teleportation array is built at the mountain gate.

She cannot accept it if the teleportation array is not built within the specified time.

Qingyang Zhenjun smiled and said:
"Starting tomorrow, regardless of whether the teleportation array is completed within half a month, two-thirds of the cultivators are prohibited from cultivating within the area of ​​your sect's protective array. So, now that I've said this in front of so many fellow cultivators, you can rest assured, right?"

Azure Phoenix True Lord nodded and let out a long sigh of relief:

"I feel much more at ease."

The next day, Ji An was cultivating under the Gathering Yuan Tree when Da Huang, who was guarding outside, entered the small world and said:
“Master, several cultivators have come to visit outside the cave. They concealed their aura very well, and I cannot detect their level.”

One of them introduced himself as 'True Lord Azure Dragon,' so I immediately ran in to report."

Ji An slowly finished his practice and said:

"Okay, I'll go greet them."

He rode a cloud away from the small world and welcomed the guests to his cave.

Several other Nascent Soul Stage 9 cultivators arrived, and after exchanging pleasantries, everyone took their seats.

Xuanxiao Zhenjun cupped his hands and said politely:
"I recently had the opportunity to see your magical imprint, and I felt the five elements intertwined in a balanced and harmonious manner. It was truly admirable!"

As a True Lord who cultivates thunder magic, he dreamed of perfecting the Chaos Five Elements Thunder, but unfortunately, due to his own limitations, his understanding of the power of the wood element stagnated.

Ji An smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you flatter me."

The other party's politeness made him feel comfortable, but he knew very well that all of this was due to his own strength.

Qingyang Zhenjun's eyes were full of curiosity. He also obtained the jade slip to examine the magic imprint and was able to glimpse the power system within it, which contained all five elements and yin and yang.

For cultivators, such talent is too astonishing, meaning that there are no weaknesses, and any magic weapon of the five elements can be used to their advantage.

After a brief conversation, True Lord Xuanxiao said in a deep voice:
"I have a favor to ask. Fellow Daoist, could you please satisfy our curiosity and let us see the full power of the Chaos Five Elements Thunder?"

The strongest spell that cultivators can master is the Chaos Five Elements Thunder, a spell that is difficult to learn and master.

Only with a profound understanding of the power of the Five Elements and a clear grasp of the Yin-Yang transformations within magic can one master magic to a high level.

Ji An nodded, "Of course, please follow me outside."

Promoting his own reputation was one of his original goals, so he certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity to showcase himself.

As the group emerged from the cave, he activated his magic power and began casting spells. The spells flowed rapidly through his immortal veins, causing the light and shadow to shift within the Dao, and five-colored light bloomed in the nearby sky.

This time, he did not use the Five Directions Flags spiritual treasure to create resonance, but used eight-tenths of his normal power.

Xuanxiao Zhenjun stared wide-eyed, letting the bright light sting his eyes, and two lines of hot tears streamed down his face.

His purpose in doing this was to carefully observe how the power of the five elements would change when thunder magic was released in an instant.

Earth generates metal, but Ji Earth (己土) exhibits more of the characteristics of generating metal and draining fire, while Wu Earth (戊土) exhibits more of the ability to restrain water and deplete wood.

In the Chaotic Five Elements Thunder, one of the five elements does not exist in isolation; it connects with other five elements through the transformation of Yin and Yang.

Qingyang Zhenjun felt the energy fluctuations transmitted from the void, and his whole body felt like it was being pricked with needles.

This is his unique ability; when faced with a force that threatens his life, he will instinctively produce a physiological reaction to issue a warning.

Qingyang Zhenjun understood that if a cultivator activated their Dharma form while simultaneously releasing a spell, the spell's power would be further enhanced.

If he hadn't dodged the attack immediately and hadn't protected his entire body with his magical artifact, just one such attack would have been enough to severely injure him.

After a long silence, True Lord Xuanxiao shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying:
"The Yin-Yang changes when the Chaos Five Elements Thunder is released are too numerous for me to understand."

Previously, I was quite proud of my thunder magic, but now I finally understand that there are always people more skilled than me, and heavens beyond heavens.

The Chaotic Five Elements Thunder is like releasing the Five Elements Divine Thunders such as Geng Metal Divine Thunder and Gui Water Divine Thunder at the same time, but the different thunder techniques still form a deeper level of change, allowing the magical energy to burst out in a more violent form.

Seeing his proud and arrogant fellow Daoist yield, Juque Zhenjun was filled with emotion.

"I am unworthy of such praise from you, fellow Daoist. I will continue my efforts and explore even more potential."

Ji An gave a polite smile, but his true thoughts were:
'I like hearing that; please say it more often.'

Xuanxiao Zhenjun's pupils constricted, and he said incredulously:
"Can such powerful lightning magic be improved further?"

"Probably so."

Ji An answered somewhat uncertainly, but he was actually quite certain that the power of Lei Fa could be further enhanced.

Of the five Dao Seeds he currently possesses, only the Earth and Fire Dao Seeds (戊己土 and 丙丁火) have reached the Earth Rank, so there is considerable room for improvement in his Thunder Techniques.
