Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1515 - 631: Endless Icefield, Encountering Cultivators
Previously on Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill...
The power of the "Five Elements Divine Thunder" was transformed into "Binghuo Divine Thunder" under Li Yunjing’s control, scorching thunderfire swept across the entire canyon.
The ice spider swarm let out painful screams in the high temperature, even the shell of the spider queen was scorched red.
"Go!"
The three took the opportunity to break through the encirclement.
However, just a hundred zhang out, the ice surface ahead suddenly collapsed, and three spider queens of similar size broke through the ice!
"How is this possible?"
Zhao Qi’s face turned pale, "How can spider queens of this level live in groups?"
"A mere Tier Three Demon Beast dares to block my way?"
Li Yunjing snorted coldly at the sight, his eyes flashing with cold light.
"Go!"
He formed a seal with his right hand, the "Yin Yang Five Elements Celestial Derivation Sword" suddenly split into thousands, weaving a brilliant sword net in the air.
The seven-colored divine light erupted, the power of the Five Elements, and Yin Yang Qi pervaded, illuminating the nearby icefield as if it were daylight.
The three spider queens let out sharp screams and were reduced to ashes in the sword light and flames.
The remaining ice spiders couldn’t even scream before being pulverized by the shockwave.
"How is this possible?"
Su Muqing and Zhao Qi stared wide-eyed at the scene before them.
It should be known that all three spider queens had peak Golden Core Realm strength, combined with thousands of ice spiders, such a powerful force could almost flatten a second-tier sect.
Had they appeared in the "Great Ming Cultivation Realm," it would be considered a beast tide.
Yet Li Yunjing with a bit of true skill, in the span of a breath, the swarm that had just been so menacing was reduced to ashes, leaving not a single trace.
"Li... Fellow Daoist Li..."
Su Muqing’s voice trembled, "Your cultivation..."
"Me? Just the Golden Core Realm Fourth Heaven!"
Li Yunjing put away his magical treasure and said lightly, "Merely a few tricks. Let’s continue on our way."
"Uh..."
Zhao Qi was fine, after all, she knew her husband’s prowess and was mentally prepared, but Su Muqing was different, almost choked by Li Yunjing’s words.
She was a Golden Core Realm Sixth Layer cultivator, and when faced with these ice demonic beasts, she believed there was no option but to run.
But Li Yunjing was only a Golden Core Realm Fourth Layer, two small realms lower than her.
Why is he so freakish?
Could it be that people from the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" are more powerful than those from "Beidie Sect"?
But the fellow Daoists from "Shenxiao Dao Sect" have had contact with them; they’ve communicated too, and none were this freakish!
Even if "Shenxiao Dao Sect" held an advantage on the same level, it was always difficult to defeat "Beidie Sect’s" cultivators, never has anyone as abnormal as Li Yunjing appeared.
Could it be that the previous exchanges between "Shenxiao Dao Sect" and the two sects were a facade, deliberately misleading them "Beidie Sect"?
Countless thoughts emerged in Su Muqing’s mind.
Li Yunjing was unaware that this woman started overthinking.
Having dealt with the demon beasts, gathered some materials, the three continued onward, the cold wind over the icefield growing increasingly fierce.
Oddly enough, those demon beasts lurking in the shadows were all silent at this moment, seemingly sensing some terrifying presence.
"Ahead is the core area of the icefield."
Li Yunjing suddenly stopped, took out a jade scroll from his bosom, "According to the map, there should be... a great rift here."
Indeed, after a short while, a dark great rift obstructed their path.
"Woo woo woo..."
The biting cold wind howled like cutting knives, a white expanse covered the earth.
In the void, it seemed there were blades of space constantly slicing, the environment making Li Yunjing abandon the thought of passing through from above.
Li Yunjing supported a spiritual power shield of "Five-Colored Divine Light," enveloping Zhao Qi and Su Muqing, isolating the piercing cold outside.
"According to the map, three hundred li ahead is the ’Ice Soul Valley,’ where ice attribute demon beasts frequently appear."
Zhao Qi looked at the collected information, pointing toward the dark valley enshrouded by wind and snow ahead.
"Someone!"
Li Yunjing nodded, suddenly his expression tensed.
He swiftly pulled Zhao Qi, quickly took out three talismans, and formed seals to conceal their presence.
In a short time, the sound of snow crunching reached their ears, as five cultivators wrapped in heavy fur trudged along, three of whom were injured, blood stains starkly visible on the snow.
"Unsure where these cultivators are from."
Zhao Qi transmitted her voice, "Judging by their clothes, they shouldn’t be from the barbarian race."
"Damn it, we lost big this time!"
Those five stopped not far away, the leading middle-aged man spat bloody spit, "’Ice Soul Beast’ wasn’t caught, but lost two brothers instead!"
"Big brother, should we return?"
A young cultivator shivered, "I’ve heard there are Nascent Soul Stage demon beasts deeper in the ’Ice Soul Valley’..."
Li Yunjing’s gaze flickered, he lightly tapped with his fingertip, a trace of divine sense quietly attached to the middle-aged man.
With his current cultivation, the other side couldn’t sense a thing.
"Bullshit! If we go back, didn’t we come for nothing?"
The middle-aged leader was furious, "We spent so many spirit stones, prepared for so long, if we don’t go, it’ll be a huge loss, we won’t be able to make up for these resources even in a hundred years."
"Sigh..."
The other four listened and fell silent.
The big brother’s words made perfect sense!
They indeed paid a big price for this operation.
Now two people are dead, many treasures ruined, and the target "Ice Soul Beast" wasn’t caught, who can be satisfied?
"Big brother, I’ve heard there’s something unusual about the ’Ice Soul Valley’ lately, could it be the rumored ’Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow’ is about to appear?"
A sharp-nosed, monkey-faced cultivator lowered his voice.
"Shut up!"
The middle-aged man sternly reprimanded, "Can this matter be randomly mentioned?"
