People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 215 Ultimatum
Chen Xiao's consciousness gradually merged into the cultivation method of the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body. Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a morning had passed.

Under the blazing sun, Chen Xiao, who had been sitting quietly for two hours, finally moved his hand almost imperceptibly. When he slowly opened his eyes, there was still a hint of bewilderment in them.

The Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body is indeed the signature technique of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion. It is extremely exquisite. This technique has extremely strict requirements on the soul. If the soul power is insufficient, there is almost no chance of success in cultivating it.

"No wonder so few people in the Wind and Thunder Pavilion can master it. Not to mention the Spirit Realm Soul, at the very least one needs to be at the peak of the Mortal Realm to have any hope of mastering it."

After studying the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body technique for a whole morning, Chen Xiao gradually understood how to cultivate it.

Such high soul requirements are beyond the reach of ordinary people, except for those top experts with exceptional strength. Even if one's soul strength is sufficient, condensing a clone is by no means an easy task.

Like the Three Thousand Thunderclaps, even when it condenses into clones, it is divided into three levels.

To reach the subtle, to attain the highest level, to achieve great success!
These three levels directly determine the strength of the clone.

A clone at the Microscopic level has at most one-third of the combat power of the original body, while a clone at the Hall level has about two-thirds.

When one reaches the highest level, the clone can be just as powerful as the original body!
The more Chen Xiao looked at it, the more he felt that it was like a weakened version of the "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" technique from the Great Thousand Worlds.

"Control the form with the mind, let the soul remain in the shadow..."

With his mind focused, Chen Xiao slowly rose, muttering the key points recorded in the mental cultivation manual. A dazzling silver light emanated from the soles of his feet, and then his eyes sharpened as he suddenly stepped forward.

With this step, his figure appeared dozens of feet away like lightning, leaving four afterimages along the way.

Witnessing this scene firsthand, Yang Lei, who had been so confident, was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Ignoring his own predicament, Yang Lei exclaimed in surprise with wide eyes.

That's clearly a fragment of a scroll, how could one possibly use it to cultivate the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body!
Moreover, even a complete Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body Scroll cannot be mastered in just one morning!

He studied diligently for decades and only reached the level of microscopic perception. How could Chen Xiao achieve it so quickly?

In comparison, Yang Lei felt extremely insulted, as if someone was pointing their finger at him and yelling, "You're a piece of trash!"

Little do people know that the same level of difficulty can be perceived very differently by different people.

Chen Xiao is now a Dou Zun powerhouse, and with his soul power already at the Spirit Realm, the difficulty of the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body is not as terrifying as Yang Lei's eyes.

Ignoring Yang Lei's startled reaction, Chen Xiao turned to look at the afterimage he had left behind.

Of the four afterimages, three were like wisps of smoke, quickly dissipating in the gentle breeze.

The last afterimage dissipated much more slowly, lasting for almost three minutes before gradually fading into nothingness.

Moreover, Chen Xiao could sense a very faint soul fluctuation from this afterimage.

"Only by leaving a wisp of one's soul within the afterimage the instant it appears can one condense a clone. I was too fast just now, causing me to be a fraction of a second too slow in leaving my soul behind..."

Reflecting on his earlier mistake, Chen Xiao was not worried but rather pleased.

The most painful thing about practicing combat skills is having no clue what to do. As long as you have a clear idea and can understand the mistakes of the past, you can continuously improve.

"Come again!"

Chen Xiao focused his mind again and continued to unleash the Three Thousand Thunderbolts, leaving behind his soul as the afterimage appeared, thus condensing a clone.

Again and again, in an endless cycle.

The afterimage left behind, under the watchful eyes of Venerable Tianhuo and Yang Lei, could only be maintained for a longer period of time, becoming increasingly solid, but it still had subtle differences from the real clone.

Constantly activating the Three Thousand Thunder Movements consumes a great deal of internal fighting energy, which is one of the reasons why the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body is difficult to cultivate.

But for Chen Xiao, the consumption was negligible, which meant he had more opportunities to try and fail. Watching him keep trying, Yang Lei in the distance couldn't help but feel a little envious.

If he could cultivate without regard for the cost, he would probably have reached at least the advanced level by now.

Just as Chen Xiao was immersed in cultivation, a silver figure finally appeared in the distant sky.

It was difficult to discern the person's true age. His face appeared quite young, but his hair was somewhat white, hinting at an aged appearance.

What is most surprising is that he has a pair of extremely rare silver-white eyes, and when you look into them, you can't help but feel a chill.

He arrived without concealing himself, so the three people in the canyon spotted him immediately.

The difference was that Chen Xiao and Venerable Tianhuo didn't care at all, while Yang Lei was somewhat excited.

"Pavilion Master!"

Not daring to speak loudly, Yang Lei called out in a muffled voice.

In an instant, the visitor's identity was fully revealed.

This person is none other than Fei Tian, ​​the master of Fenglei North Pavilion, also known as Tianleizi!

Fei Tian glanced at Yang Lei casually, then looked away, lingering for a moment on Venerable Tianhuo and Chen Xiao.

He came because of the jade slip that Yang Lei crushed, but he didn't know any specific information about Chen Xiao and Venerable Tianhuo.

Upon closer inspection, Fei Tian could sense the extraordinary nature of Venerable Tianhuo. Even a mere soul form posed a threat to him, which was enough to prove that Venerable Tianhuo was currently capable of displaying the strength of a high-level Dou Zong, similar to his own.

No wonder Yang Lei was captured. With his strength as a four-star Dou Zong, it's perfectly reasonable for him to fall into the hands of Venerable Tianhuo.

As for Chen Xiao, who was focused on cultivating the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body, Fei Tian had a very peculiar feeling.

In his eyes, Chen Xiao at this moment was like a soul body. He couldn't sense Chen Xiao's specific strength, but he could feel the powerful soul force. "He really has some skill. No wonder he dared to suppress the elders of my Wind and Thunder Northern Pavilion in the Northern Lands. However, no matter how capable you are, cultivating the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body so recklessly is courting death!"

Fei Tian seemed to be making a declaration to Chen Xiao and Venerable Tianhuo, or perhaps he was talking to himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, without the slightest hesitation, a flash of lightning appeared beneath his feet, transforming him into a silver streak that appeared before Chen Xiao. He curled his fingers into a claw and reached for Chen Xiao's throat.

"Pavilion Master..."

Bang!
Yang Lei was extremely anxious and wanted to speak up to remind him.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was struck in the chest by Venerable Heavenly Fire, which interrupted his breathing, and he could no longer utter the rest of his words.

On the other side, noticing Fei Tian's actions, Chen Xiao remained calm and once again unleashed the Three Thousand Thunderbolts, instantly creating several afterimages and leaping back a hundred feet to dodge Fei Tian's claw.

Even if Chen Xiao had concealed some of his true abilities, the speed of the Three Thousand Thunderclaps was undeniable. With such agility, Fei Tian would have no chance of even touching a single hem of his clothes.

Unless, he uses the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body!
Clearly, Fei Tian was also aware of this.

Without hesitation, he instinctively activated his Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body. With a sway of his body, two identical silver figures flashed out from the left and right, forming a triangle to surround Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao noticed that Fei Tian was an eight-star Dou Zong, but these two clones only had the strength of a six-star Dou Zong.

In other words, Fei Tian's Three Thousand Thunder Illusionary Bodies were not yet fully developed; they were only at the entry-level stage.

With his gaze fixed on the two reference figures placed in front of him, Chen Xiao felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and finally understood why the afterimages he had created could not be maintained indefinitely.

He has revealed the truth within!

"Hahaha, I see, that's how it is!"

With a loud laugh, Chen Xiao took a step forward, leaving an afterimage behind him.

Unlike before, this time, there was only a fleeting afterimage.

The afterimage's posture was strange, maintaining Chen Xiao's stepping motion. From 'him', everyone in the arena could clearly feel a soul power emanating from him!
This spiritual power has a clear connection with Chen Xiao's true body, like a bond maintaining it, which is fundamentally different from the previous rootless duckweed.

He did it! He did it!

Gazing at the afterimage, Yang Lei closed his eyes, not wanting to watch any longer.

He never expected that the help he had been waiting for would actually become an aid to Chen Xiao's cultivation.

What a terrible teammate!

"The Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Bodies must never be possessed by outsiders!"

Fei Tian, ​​however, was still not clear about the current situation. When he saw Chen Xiao condense a clone, his face became even more gloomy. He unleashed the power of his two clones and launched a fierce attack.

His main body, however, went straight for Chen Xiao's clone, attempting to annihilate it in one fell swoop.

"The clone is complete, Fei Tian, ​​you're useless now."

After laughing heartily, Chen Xiao no longer concealed himself. Facing the two attacking clones of Fei Tian, ​​he advanced instead of retreating, and casually dropped two fingers in succession, blasting them into a pile of silver light spots.

Chen Xiao reached out and beckoned, drawing all the silver light spots into his hand.

As soon as these points of light came into his hand, they transformed into a stream of information, which rushed into Chen Xiao's mind along his palm.

After a brief sensing, Chen Xiao confirmed that this was indeed the complete cultivation method of the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body!

[Advance payment of 3,000 Thunder Illusion Bodies, to be completed later.]

Unsurprisingly, the advance information in my mind was immediately updated.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. After dealing with Fei Tian's clone, Chen Xiao had a thought, and the distant afterimage clone turned into an invisible point of light and flew back, finally entering Chen Xiao's brow.

This is just a clone seed, with only the strength of a Dou Huang.

However, the most difficult step in condensing the clone has been completed. From now on, Chen Xiao only needs to hone it, and his Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body can be truly used in actual combat!

Fei Tian's palm strike missed its mark, and he immediately realized that both of his clones had been destroyed.

In an instant, the gloom on his face was replaced by confusion. He looked at Chen Xiao, then at Venerable Tianhuo, and finally fixed his probing gaze on Yang Lei.

It's as if it's saying, "What on earth is going on?!"

Yang Lei continued to pretend to be dead with his eyes closed, unable to bear looking at him.

Just as Fei Tian was completely bewildered, Chen Xiao's voice rang out.

"Fei Tian, ​​your Fenglei Beige in Tianbei is really used to being domineering. Since you don't want to reason, that suits me just the way it is. My Zixiao Pavilion has taken a liking to Qifeng Mountain. I give your Fenglei Beige three days to move out."

"Three days from now, I will personally ascend Qifeng Mountain. If you have not moved by then, you will bear the consequences!"

The voice, imbued with fighting spirit, emerged from the Ten Thousand Snake Gorge and echoed endlessly across the desert.

For a moment, not only the two from Fenglei Beige, but also the caravans traveling nearby heard about it, and they all couldn't help but be solemn.

Fenglei Beige, Fei Tian, ​​Tian Leizi!
These names are renowned throughout Tianbei; everyone knows them.

And now, it seems that someone is issuing an ultimatum to this behemoth in the far north.

At this moment, everyone knew that something big was about to happen in Tianbei!
