I bear witness to immortality in the human world.

After a while.

Wu Ming and the Qingming Peak Master landed somewhere in the purple sea of ​​lightning.

The Azure Peak Master extended his soul sense to investigate the situation beneath the sea of ​​thunder, searching for the location where the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus was about to be born. Meanwhile, Wu Ming stood still, observing the shape of this thunder star, occasionally revealing a thoughtful expression.

"Thunder is both destruction and rebirth, punishing all things, yet also nurturing all things... Above this sea of ​​thunder, thunderclouds are dense, and the power of thunder is surging and boundless, making it difficult for living beings to survive. But beneath the sea of ​​thunder, although the lightning is still surging, it is constantly spreading, nourishing countless lives for this star."

Wu Ming is now a Nine-Refined Dao Saint, and his comprehension of the laws has improved significantly compared to when he was at the Eighth Refinement stage. He gained insights along the way from the Thunder Prison Abyss to this place, and he has gained even more insights here.

He only spared a small portion of his mind to control his body, following the movement of the Azure Nether Peak Master on the sea surface, while the rest of his mind was immersed in sensing and comprehending the sea of ​​thunder below, with flashes of inspiration from the depths of his mind regarding the mysteries of the laws of thunder.

in this way,

I don't know how much time passed.

A glint suddenly flashed in Wu Ming's eyes, and he abruptly woke up.

"It's coming!"

He stared at the sea of ​​thunder below.

Although this realization is far from touching the edge of the third step of the Thunder Law, it is a solid step forward on the path of comprehending the law. Now he can perceive some mysterious changes deep in the Thunder Sea through the law.

The Azure Nether Peak Master, who was standing to the side, was already on high alert.

Her strength may not be as great as Wu Ming's, but she has been studying the laws of thunder for thousands of years. She has a deeper understanding of the laws of thunder than Wu Ming, and her perception of the sea of ​​thunder is clearer. She has also noticed the changes long ago.

Deep within the sea of ​​lightning, streaks of purple lightning suddenly appeared, then spread in all directions. As the lightning surged, the entire sea of ​​lightning began to violently churn, with waves crashing and turbulent.

Rumble!!!
A colossal wave, accompanied by lightning and stirring up the wind and clouds, suddenly pressed down on Wu Ming and the Qingming Peak Master.

However, Wu Ming and the Qingming Peak Master were both Dao Saints, so they naturally didn't take such changes seriously. They didn't even move, but simply activated a protective Dao technique to block the surging thunderous waves.

Splash!

One thunderous wave after another crashed down, while beneath the sea, a large amount of bubbles began to bubble and gurgle. After nearly a quarter of an hour, a dazzling purple light finally emerged from the depths of the thunderous sea.

Upon closer inspection, it resembled a purple lotus of lightning, born from the deepest part of the sea of ​​lightning in some mysterious way, and then drifting towards the surface of the sea as the sea of ​​lightning boiled.

Whoosh!

With a flash of purple lightning, the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus, radiating light like crystal, suddenly broke through the sea surface and arrived in the sky. Countless fine purple lightning streamed across its surface, filled with an aura of destruction, yet its interior surged with rich vitality. Life and destruction coexisted, intertwining to create endless mysteries.

Just as the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus was about to break through the air and fly away, the Azure Nether Peak Master acted extremely quickly. With a command, a patch of azure lightning instantly spread out, sealing the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus within.

This Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus seemed to possess intelligence, struggling against the thunderous magic of the Azure Nether Peak Master, but it could not break free. Finally, it let out a mournful cry and was completely subdued by the Azure Nether Peak Master, ceasing to move.

"it is good!"

The Azure Peak Master held the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus in his hand, finally revealing a look of joy.

With this Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus in hand, she can refine her Daoist techniques, further enhance her thunder magic cultivation, and make it much easier for her to overcome the fourth thunder tribulation in the future, and also extend her life by another thousand years.

"Master, please come with me."

After seeing that the Azure Nether Peak Master had accepted the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus, Wu Ming nodded slightly to her, then turned his gaze to a certain direction in the distance, and then rode a beam of light, instantly disappearing into the void.

Seeing this, Peak Master Qingming knew what Wu Ming was going to do, so he immediately put away the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus and followed Wu Ming.

This trip to seize the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus seemed simple; they just randomly found a place where the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus was born and took it without even a fight. But in reality, it wasn't luck; it was entirely because of Wu Ming.

Wu Ming's previous move, a single lightning technique, unleashed strength comparable to a Seven Tribulation Dao Saint, which had already astonished many. Facing an extremely young, peerless Dao cultivator who had reached the strength of a Seven Tribulation Dao Saint in less than a thousand years of cultivation, everyone would have to think twice.

This is why, when the Azure Nether Peak Master led Wu Ming to search for the birthplace of the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus in the Thunder Sea, many people took the initiative to back down, unwilling to compete with Wu Ming.

Here, Dao Saints at the fourth and fifth tribulations only have a chance to compete for a Thunder Lotus if they join forces with others. Dao Saints at the sixth tribulation are usually able to protect one, while Dao Saints at the seventh tribulation can only steal others' lotuses.

Wu Ming intimidated everyone, allowing the Azure Nether Peak Master to easily obtain a Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus. However, his goal was naturally not limited to this. This Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus was incredibly profound, containing the essence of Purple Heaven Divine Thunder, where destruction and life coexisted. Now that he had the chance, he naturally wanted to obtain one for research and comprehension. Whoosh!
Wu Ming's escape light was as swift as lightning, extremely fast, and almost instantly streaked across the sky.

His gaze immediately locked onto a dark figure in the distance.

The dark figure was collecting a Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus. Its appearance was that of a gaunt old man who looked very unfamiliar, but its aura was quite familiar to Wu Ming. It was the Youmie Dao Saint who had attacked the Qingming Peak Master earlier!

"Give it to me."

Without saying a word, Wu Ming pointed from a distance and unleashed a surge of lightning.

When Youmian Dao Saint saw Wu Ming approaching, his face immediately turned ugly. But he had already obtained the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus, so how could he give it up so easily? Besides, he was also a dignified Six Tribulation Dao Saint. Although he was slightly inferior to Wu Ming in strength, he was not so desperate as to run away at the first sign of trouble.

With one hand, he released a ghostly light, forcibly seizing the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus. With the other hand, he made a hand seal, and instantly, a cold wind swept across the sea of ​​thunder, a gale arose, and a strange, pitch-black wind howled up and swept towards Wu Ming, engulfing the bolt of lightning that Wu Ming had released.

Sizzle!!

The lightning unleashed terrifying power, spreading continuously within the black wind, but its speed was noticeably slowed down.

Youmie Daosheng never expected to gain the upper hand in the battle of Dao techniques, nor did he intend to fight to a draw. He only hoped to block Wu Ming's Dao techniques for a brief moment, so that he could completely take the Purple Yuan Thunder Lotus into his possession and then escape with the treasure.

Even if Wu Ming possesses the power of the Seven Tribulations, once he starts chasing, he might not be able to do anything to him.

but,
These thoughts only flashed through my mind.

However, Wu Ming's eyes flashed with a dark light, and he suddenly pointed a finger from afar. An indescribable suppression descended and landed on Youmie Daosheng's primordial spirit, making his soul sense extremely stiff and sluggish, and his strength dropped by more than 40%.

The black wind magic he was manipulating was briefly interrupted before being torn apart by the lightning released by Wu Ming. Immediately afterwards, the lightning shot out from the void and struck the body of the Netherworld Dao Saint.

"Oops!"

The Dao Saint of the Netherworld was greatly alarmed.

He didn't know what methods Wu Ming had used to suppress his primordial spirit and soul from a distance, which greatly affected his Daoist techniques, but he knew that the situation was now extremely bad.

The power of lightning was swift, and the Netherworld Saint was caught off guard and had no time to dodge. He was directly struck by the lightning released by Wu Ming, and his entire physical body immediately shattered and exploded, even his blood evaporated in an instant.

"Nine Annihilation Soul Escape Technique!"

As an ancient Dao Saint who had traversed the world for thousands of years, Youmie Dao Saint knew from the situation that this physical body could not be protected. Therefore, he did not protect it at all, but directly abandoned the physical body and allowed Wu Ming's thunderous magic to hit him, thus gaining the opportunity to use his Dao magic in the gap.

The Daoist technique he used was not one to fight against Wu Ming, but a secret life-saving technique he had kept hidden!
Nine Annihilation Soul Escape Technique!
When this method is used, the primordial spirit will instantly shatter into nine parts, escaping in nine different directions at extremely high speeds. It can disregard all traces of its own presence, making it difficult to track. It is the ultimate life-saving method that abandons the physical body.

However, this method also has great drawbacks. The primordial spirit is divided into nine parts. Even if only one part is destroyed, it will suffer severe damage. If more than three parts are destroyed, it cannot heal itself and must be possessed and reincarnated. If more than five parts are lost, it may even be trapped in the mystery of the womb during the reincarnation process and unable to awaken its memories. If seven parts are lost, the primordial spirit will suffer irreversible damage, and even if it is possessed and reincarnated, it will be difficult to recover.

This was a secret technique reserved for life-or-death situations, but Youmie Daosheng used it without hesitation at this moment because his brief exchange with Wu Ming had already made him feel the threat of death!

"Ok?"

Wu Ming was slightly surprised by the decisiveness of the Netherworld Dao Saint.

Seeing that the opponent's primordial spirit split into nine, turning into nine gray shadows that instantly fled in nine directions, he immediately waved his right hand, and six bolts of lightning burst forth, chasing after them and striking six of the soul shadows in an instant.

"what!!!"

The six soul shadows all let out a shrill scream, and then turned into wisps of green smoke and disappeared.

The remaining three soul shadows vanished in that brief moment.

"So decisive, that's interesting. I'll let you off this time."

Wu Ming could naturally see the advantages and disadvantages of the Daoist technique of the Netherworld Dao Saint. He thought that these ancient Dao Saints who had lived for thousands of years were all arrogant people, but he did not expect them to be so decisive. They could abandon their physical bodies in an instant and not hesitate to severely damage their primordial spirits in order to use their most secret techniques to escape.

There's a reason why the other party was able to survive six periods of decline and live for over six thousand years. (End of Chapter)
