Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1336 - 572: The Power of the Nascent Soul Realm
Previously on Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill...
Li Yunjing was surrounded by arcs of electricity that danced like dragons and snakes. The "Thunder Tribulation Divine Fist" roared out with the might of the nine heavens, and where the fist wind passed, the air produced a piercing explosion.
The entire altar was transformed into a thunder sea.
The rolling thunder power and the huge explosion sounds caused the silver zombie to let out painful howls.
It wanted to withdraw, but saw that the thunder light emitted from Li Yunjing’s fingertips wrapped around its ankles like chains, forcibly dragging it back.
"Boom!"
Thunder collided with the silver zombie, and silver bones sparked amidst the thunder light, with the stench of charred flesh permeating the altar.
The silver zombie emitted an inhuman howl, simultaneously swinging its sharp claws, with claw tips condensing into pitch-black corpse poison bone spikes.
Li Yunjing sidestepped to dodge, his fist technique changing to palm technique, and swiftly performed a grappling technique, gripping the sharp claw. With just a twist, a "crack" sound rang out, breaking the silver zombie’s claw.
"Purple Sky Divine Thunder!"
Li Yunjing shouted, the rolling thunder power followed his palm, striking the silver zombie’s chest, creating a bloody hole.
The silver zombie struggled frantically, the remaining ghostly blue light from the coffin fully surged into its body, trying to repair its injuries through corpse qi.
"Beast! You still dare to attempt rebellion!"
Li Yunjing wielded the "Yin Yang Five Elements Celestial Derivation Sword" and slashed down. A thunderous purple column as thick as a water tank crashed down.
The silver zombie writhed madly under the thunder punishment, its body shattered inch by inch from the thunder light; it raised its head and let out its final roar, containing a trace of unwillingness and relief.
When the thunder column dissipated, only a pile of scorched flesh remained on the ground.
"Dead is dead, trying to come back to life is simply laughable!"
Li Yunjing sneered coldly, his gaze falling on the ancient book tightly held in the zombie’s hand.
The surface of the ancient book was covered with traces of corpse poison erosion, yet faintly emitted a mystical aura.
Just as he reached out to grab it, the altar suddenly shook violently, the ghostly green flame in the bronze cauldron extinguished entirely, replaced by the black fog seeping from underground.
"What is this..."
Li Yunjing cautiously retreated, only to see the black fog coalesce into a human face resembling Yu Mozi.
"Li Yunjing, you think destroying the ’Demon Control Sect’ is enough?"
The phantom voice was full of resentment, "That ’Netherworld Corpse Scripture,’ you may take it, but might not be able to... keep it!"
Before the voice finished, the black fog exploded, and the top of the altar began to collapse.
Li Yunjing quickly stored the ancient book, his body transformed into a stream of light, rushing out of the altar.
Behind him came a series of booms, and when he turned back, the "Treasured Pavilion" along with the entire mountain belly was collapsing. After the dust settled, only a deep and bottomless pit remained.
With the ancient book slightly hot in his hand, his heart surged with killing intent: "Yu Mozi, no matter what else you have planned, I, Li Yunjing, will accompany you to the end!"
And at that moment, Master Lei Ze, Nine Netherworld Master, and Peak Master Alchemy Tripod, noticing the commotion, flew over to the scene.
"What happened?"
Seeing Li Yunjing unharmed, the three let out a sigh of relief, and Master Lei Ze asked.
Li Yunjing looked at the three Supreme Elders, just about to speak, when the "Netherworld Corpse Scripture" in his hand suddenly became intensely hot, the traces of corpse poison erosion on the surface of the ancient book squirming like living creatures.
Peak Master Alchemy Tripod’s eyes narrowed as he reached out to probe: "This aura is strange, could it be...?"
Before he finished, a hundred-zhang black banner surged up from the depths of the pit, the banner surface painted with thousands of vengeful spirits, claws waving. It was exactly Yu Mozi’s lifebound magical treasure, "Netherworld Blood River Banner"!
Originally, Yu Mozi had secretly concealed this banner beneath the altar when he escaped.
This silver zombie was of great use to him.
He only waited for the silver zombie to evolve into a golden armor zombie, then Yu Mozi would use evil technique to refine it into an external embodiment.
By then, with both a main body and embodiment at the Nascent Soul Realm level, his status in Demon Dao would be greatly enhanced, becoming a regional overlord.
Initially, Yu Mozi thought that the secret location was very hidden and wouldn’t be discovered by anyone.
Unexpectedly met Li Yunjing, who uncovered the secret, causing him tremendous loss.
This "Netherworld Blood River Banner" contained a wisp of Yu Mozi’s spiritual sense, knowing that escape was unlikely.
At this moment it swelled violently in the wind, blood waves entwined with corpse poison covered the sky, instantly enveloping the four of them.
Even before his lifebound magical treasure was destroyed, he wanted to show Li Yunjing and the others a tough challenge!
"Beware of corpse poison!"
Nine Netherworld Master hurriedly summoned "Nine Netherworld Magic Eye," the ghostly blue light collided with the blood waves, stirring up clouds of poison mist.
Master Lei Ze, surrounded by bursting thunder light, swung the Thunder Punishment Sword to cleave dozens of purple lightning bolts, but found that the blood waves could quickly heal after being split.
Li Yunjing grasped the "Netherworld Corpse Scripture," noticing the resonance between the ancient book and the Blood River Banner, the mystical aura faintly emitted from the book seemed to be guiding the blood waves.
"This Blood River Banner and the ancient book have something strange!"
Li Yunjing shouted loudly, "I’ll restrain the ’Netherworld Corpse Scripture,’ you all suppress the ’Netherworld Blood River Banner’!"
With that, his spirit entered the "Netherworld Corpse Scripture."
Within the "Netherworld Corpse Scripture," was a silhouette formed by black fog, shockingly resembling Yu Mozi once again.
"Li Yunjing, you truly know not death!"
"If you hand the ’Netherworld Corpse Scripture’ to the other three, I’d be finished."
"Unexpectedly, you act rashly seeking merit, daring to use spiritual power to enter my secret scripture, you’re dead!"
The spirit of the banner let out bizarre laughter, directly rushing to slay Li Yunjing’s spiritual body.
Outside, Peak Master Alchemy Tripod threw out the "Nine Apertures Pill Furnace," the furnace transformed into a gigantic cauldron, directly suppressing the "Netherworld Blood River Banner" within it.
"Thunder Prison Caging Heaven!"
Master Lei Ze made sealing gestures with both hands, dispersing the surrounding demonic qi, blood qi, evil qi, corpse poison.
