Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 300 Look! Two newbies!

Inside the wormhole.

Xiao Bai stood on the eighth-order space ship, surrounded by endless spatial turbulence, colorful yet extremely dangerous.

He frowned slightly. This was the second time he had entered a spatial wormhole, and that vague sense of crisis resurfaced, giving him a chilling feeling that made his hair stand on end.

"Let me do it. You go and rest. There are still five days left!"

A gentle voice sounded in his ear, and Little Fairy Doctor sensed that something was wrong with him, feeling slightly worried.

"good!"

After a moment's hesitation, Xiao Bai nodded, stepped aside from the control panel at the bow, and turned to walk towards the deck.

"noob."

After skillfully channeling a surge of powerful battle qi into the control panel, Little Fairy Doctor didn't turn around, but softly called out to the black-robed figure.

"Get some rest and don't overwork yourself. No matter what difficulties lie ahead, Xian'er will be by your side, facing them together!"

Xiao Bai paused slightly, and a warm smile unconsciously appeared on his lips as he turned away from Little Fairy Doctor.

He gave a soft "hmm" and didn't say anything more, but the inexplicable sense of oppression in his heart dissipated considerably.

Walking to the center of the deck, Xiao Bai sat cross-legged, his gaze falling on Feng Qing'er, who was also sitting quietly by the ship's side not far away.

This prodigy from the Wind and Thunder Pavilion was resting with his eyes closed, his long eyelashes casting a shadow on his face, making him appear less arrogant than before.

"Have you seen enough?" Feng Qing'er suddenly opened her eyes and said coldly.

Xiao Bai didn't take it seriously, instead asking, "Do you think the Wind and Thunder Pavilion might ambush me at this wormhole exit?"

"What, are you scared?" Feng Qing'er was taken aback, then her red lips curled into a mocking smile.

"I'm not afraid. As long as you're in my hands, even if the Pavilion Master of Fenglei Pavilion comes, he'll probably be wary!" Xiao Bai smiled and said casually.

"A pointless test!"

With a cold laugh, Feng Qing'er closed her eyes again, but the slightly clenched white fists showed that her heart was not as calm as it appeared.

Xiao Bai withdrew his gaze and looked at the end of the passage ahead. His eyes gradually deepened, and points of light flickered, as if countless thunderbolts were exploding.

"Fenglei Pavilion Ice River Valley."

Thinking of what he had seen through the thunder curtain—that people from both sides had appeared simultaneously in a cave near Tianmu Mountain—he felt a little uneasy.

After a while, Xiao Bai slowly closed his eyes and began to carefully examine the cultivation method of the 'Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body' in his mind.

In any case, improving one's own strength is the key; worrying too much will not help.

With his mind completely absorbed in the cultivation technique, time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a day had quietly passed.

At a certain moment, Xiao Bai, who had been sitting quietly cross-legged, trembled and stood up. Brilliant lightning surged on the soles of his feet, and his body shot out like a bolt of lightning, instantly reaching dozens of meters away.

Behind him, several afterimages appeared, then slowly vanished into nothingness. Faintly, a trace of extremely subtle soul fluctuation emanated from the afterimages.

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

Sensing the movement, Feng Qing'er suddenly opened her eyes, staring at the scene in disbelief, her red lips parting slightly as she murmured.

His gaze fell upon the thoughtful figure in black robes, and a wave of shock washed over him. The Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body was incredibly profound, and its cultivation conditions were extremely demanding.

Even within the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, very few people can successfully cultivate it. Apart from a few freaks, ordinary people, let alone anything else, would be one in ten thousand if they could cultivate the prerequisite technique, Three Thousand Thunder Movement, to the Three Thousand Thunder Realm.

"How could you be so fast?" Feng Qing'er's voice trembled slightly.

With Xiao Bai's talent, it's not surprising that she was able to master the basics of cultivation, but how long has it been since he obtained the cultivation technique?

Only a few days!

What can you accomplish in just a few days? Some people probably haven't even fully grasped the content of the techniques, let alone started practicing them.

Stopping in his tracks, Xiao Bai turned to look at her, a faint smile playing on his lips:

"What? Surprised?"

Feng Qing'er bit her lip, forcing herself to calm down, and turned her pretty face to the side.

"Don't be so smug. You've only just touched the threshold; you haven't even formed a clone yet. Besides, even if you did manage to form a clone, there are different levels: Subtle, Entering the Hall, and Great Completion!"

"The three levels represent the strength of the clone. The clone at the Microscopic level is at most one-third of the original body, the clone at the Advanced level is two-thirds, and the Great Completion level is the essence of this technique that can rival the Heavenly level, and is equivalent to the strength of the original body."

Despite the turmoil in her heart, Feng Qing'er couldn't stand his smug look and her face was full of disdain.

After saying that, he glanced sideways at Xiao Bai and pursed his lips:

"Even if you've grasped the basics, what good is it? The Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body is still a long way from being effective!"

"Heh. Just creating a clone!"

A confident smile curved his lips, and the lightning beneath Xiao Bai's feet surged once more before he vanished in an instant.

Looking at the handsome yet hateful face in front of her, Feng Qing'er's breath hitched.

"You, you."

Before he could even speak, a faint light surged between his brows, and a vast, invisible power suddenly spread out. The afterimage behind him, instead of remaining illusory, gradually solidified.

In the blink of an eye, the afterimage seemed to gain sentience and actually walked forward on its own.

"The clones just solidified like that?"

Feng Qing'er stared in shock at the two Xiao Bais in front of her, her mouth slightly agape.

Then, faced with two pairs of mocking dark eyes, she paused for a moment before realizing how close they were. She hurriedly took a few steps back, almost slipping and falling off the ship's side, and cried out in a flustered voice:

"Go, Nini!"

"Haha." Seeing Feng Qing'er's panicked appearance, Xiao Bai couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Hearing the commotion from the bow of the boat, Little Fairy Doctor turned around and laughed, "Little White, did you bully her again?"

Xiao Bai shrugged: "I'm just practicing a new technique."

Seeing this, Feng Qing'er's pretty face turned bright red, and she stomped her foot angrily, roaring, "You bastard, go to hell!"

After yelling, he walked angrily to the other side of the stern and sat down with his back to the two men.

Xiao Bai shook his head, preparing to continue refining the clone he had just condensed.

"Hey, hey, hey, Xian'er, don't move! My true form is petty and will kill me!"

Seeing the Little Fairy Doctor, who had somehow appeared and was now full of curiosity, excitedly pointing a jade finger at his arm, the clone quickly stepped back, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and said righteously:

"I've just been born and I want to see more of this beautiful world; I don't want to disappear so soon!"

"Little White! Look, there are two Little Whites!"

Upon hearing the clone speak, Little Fairy Doctor's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly grabbed Xiao Bai's arm and shook it.

"Xian'er, stop fooling around."

Ruffled Little Fairy Doctor's white hair, Xiao Bai's eyes were full of doting, "This is just an avatar."

The clone suddenly leaned closer, looking aggrieved:

"Original body, what you said is really hurtful. Even though I'm just an avatar, I still have my own dignity, you know?"

Little Fairy Doctor giggled, amused: "You two are really funny."

Hearing the commotion at the stern, Feng Qing'er couldn't help but peek back. Seeing the two Xiao Bais acting in unison, her lips twitched involuntarily.

"Neuropathy"

Is it meaningful to talk to yourself?

The clone can speak and think, and seems no different from a normal person, but it is ultimately forged from the soul power of the original body. It is not completely separated from the original body, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the two are the same person.

Therefore, in her eyes, Xiao Bai's actions were no different from those of a madman.

For the next while, the cabin deck was quite calm. Little Fairy Doctor controlled the space ship, while Xiao Bai sat cross-legged on the deck with his eyes closed, refining his clone.

Thunder rumbled in the sea of ​​consciousness.

At this moment, five-colored lightning filled the entire space, and countless bolts of lightning streaked across the sky above the sea, like giant five-colored pythons weaving through it.

Thunderclouds covered the sky overhead, and bolts of lightning as thick as an arm cascaded down like a waterfall, engulfing everything in their path.

The clone's body trembled and became increasingly illusory, then the soul power in its sea of ​​consciousness rose up and replenished it, solidifying it once more. Then, the lightning continued to temper it, making it illusory again, and the cycle repeated itself.

Xiao Bai focused intently on sensing the condition inside his clone and manipulating the lightning. This was an extremely demanding operation, requiring precise control of the heat to achieve the best results in the tempering process.

The original cultivation method of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion was to use the power of wind and thunder to temper the clone.

That thing cannot be obtained in large quantities without special methods; it can only be collected by nature.

Xiao Bai complained that the thing was too slow, and the tempering effect of wind and thunder power was nowhere near as good as his Five Elements Thunder.

If someone from the Wind and Thunder Pavilion were to cultivate the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body at this moment, they would be so astonished by Xiao Bai's tempering speed that their jaw would drop on the spot.

Compared to him, the tempering speed of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion was practically like a tortoise crawling.

"Fei Tian's clone has the strength of a six-star Dou Zong. It shouldn't be at the 'Entering the Subtle' stage, but rather the 'Ascending the Hall' stage. I heard from Feng Qing'er that this is the result of five years of tempering. At my speed, I can reach the 'Ascending the Hall' stage in at most half a month. Tsk tsk. If Fei Tian knew, wouldn't that guy be so angry that he'd vomit three liters of blood on the spot!"

Xiao Bai stroked his chin, a playful smile on his face.

This combat technique requires rigorous soul cultivation, but luckily his soul power is quite good; it needs to be tempered with the power of wind and thunder, but he has a better option.

It was practically tailor-made for him.

Suddenly, he felt his body being touched. He glanced at his clone, withdrew the boundless lightning, and vanished from his sea of ​​consciousness.

Slowly opening her eyes, a pair of beautiful gray-purple eyes came into view.

"Little White, we should be getting out of the passage soon!" Seeing that he had regained consciousness, Little Fairy Doctor's eyes flashed, and her pretty face became a little serious.

Xiao Bai nodded slightly, took a deep breath, slowly stood up, walked to the bow of the ship, and looked at the huge halo that was faintly visible in front of him.

"Heh. You really think highly of me. One Dou Zun, two high-level Dou Zong, and four mid-level Dou Zong."

A moment later, Xiao Bai withdrew his gaze, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

"What should we do? We have the advantage in terms of Dou Zong combat strength, so we shouldn't underestimate them, but Tian Shuangzi is a bit of a problem!"

Little Fairy Doctor came to the bow of the boat, stood beside him, and gently held his hand, her fingertips slightly cool.

"No, we can't confront them head-on this time. Judging from their actions, they clearly intend to wipe us out completely and leave no future trouble."

Xiao Bai gently shook his head, his eyes flashing with thought, and pondered:

"What we can see outside is only what's on the surface. There may be Dou Zun hidden in the shadows that I'm not aware of. If either the Ice River Valley Master or the Wind and Thunder Pavilion Master appears, we'll be in big trouble, and we might even get trapped."

"Therefore, we can't take this risk!"

In this situation, even with Feng Qing'er by his side, it's no longer safe. At most, she can only make Fenglei Pavilion wary.

However, this Central Region is the main base of the Ice River Valley, so they don't have as many taboos about doing things here as they do in the Northern Region.

"Xiao Bai, think of something quick! It seems they sensed you just now. Tian Shuangzi is setting up a spatial lock at the outer exit. Once you rush out of the light circle, you'll fall in, and that will be really troublesome!"

Yao Tianhuo's voice suddenly rang out, his tone urgent.

Xiao Bai's eyes sharpened, and he immediately made a decision: "Elder Yao, keep watch for their attack! Xian'er, prepare to control the spaceship; we'll forcibly change course in a moment!"

"Are you trying to forcibly create an exit passage through this spatial wormhole?"

Yao Tianhuo was shocked. If even the slightest accident occurred, it would cause the entire spatial wormhole to collapse, triggering a powerful spatial storm. Even a Dou Zun would consider this an incredibly crazy thing.

"That's right. Once we get out of their encirclement, we'll have a lot more options. We can fight and run!" Xiao Bai nodded.

"So what are you going to do?"

Yao Tianhuo's aged voice was solemn. Even with his hundreds of years of experience, this was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing. However, with his understanding of space, he analyzed the difficulty in the blink of an eye.

"Creating an exit in the passage wall is no easy task. If the commotion is too great, the spatial wormhole will collapse instantly, and a spatial storm will appear in the blink of an eye. We won't even need them to intervene; we'll be swept into the storm and certain death. But if the commotion is too small, the spatial wall will crumble too slowly, and we'll be left behind by the spaceship in the blink of an eye. There won't be enough time to reopen the passage. It's a delicate balance to strike!"

"Don't worry, I wouldn't use such a tactic if I wasn't absolutely certain!"

As the silver light circle drew ever closer to the exit, Xiao Bai gently touched his brow, and a beam of light appeared—it was the clone he had been tempering these past few days.

"Sigh, I finally got born, and before I could even enjoy myself, I'm going to make a heroic sacrifice!"

With a sigh, the clone stood at the bow of the ship, arms outstretched, eyes closed, and murmured:

"Come on, my true form, show me no mercy!"

".!" Yao Tianhuo.

"!" Feng Qing'er.

"(；一_一)" Little Fairy Doctor.

Xiao Bai glared at him. If it was to tease Xian'er before, it definitely wasn't now.

He felt that this clone was somewhat strange after being tempered, and wondered if the tempering was too drastic and that being struck by lightning had damaged its brain!

With a flick of his finger, a wisp of dark red lightning surged forth and entered the clone's body. In an instant, the entire clone changed color, its body wreathed in dark red lightning.

"It's up to you now. First, sense the situation of the spatial barrier, then control the force yourself!" Xiao Bai withdrew his finger and said softly.

"Don't worry, it's just a mere spatial barrier!"

He leaped from the bow of the ship, his clone rushing straight towards the wormhole passage ahead, attaching itself to the silvery, shimmering passage wall.

The ghostly light flickered for a moment, and the clone seemed to have confirmed something. It turned around, waved its hand, and then began to swell.

"Boom!"
