Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1517: Thunder Skill Slays Demons, Annihilates Nascent Soul

Li Yunjing urged them to leave, his gaze sweeping across the three of them, and added, “Why did you provoke that Tier Four Demon King?”

“To be honest, we came for the ‘Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow.’

Tie Zhan showed an embarrassed expression and said softly, “Of course, it was also for the Ice Soul Beast cub. Three days ago, we noticed some disturbances in the Ice Soul Valley and planned to sneak in while the Ice Soul Beast King was out…”

At this time, Tie Zhan also had no way to hide the truth.

He was certain that earlier, above, Li Yunjing and the others were definitely hiding in the shadows, overhearing their conversation, which is why they intervened to rescue them.

The purpose was clear, also for the ‘Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow.’

With life not guaranteed, Tie Zhan could only hope for some luck, relying on these strangers to ensure survival.

“And ended up being hunted instead?”

While sprinting deeper into the icy cavern, Zhao Qi couldn’t help but interject.

“That beast is more formidable than the rumors say.”

Tie Zhan nodded with a bitter smile, “Without the help of fellow cultivators, we… would likely be finished.”

“Alright.”

Li Yunjing interrupted him, “Now tell us about the ‘Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow.’

Tie Zhan and the others were Golden Core Realm cultivators, but their cultivation wasn’t high, not as formidable as Su Muqing, so Li Yunjing didn’t have the patience for their tricks and immediately pressed for information.

“This is the ‘Ice Marrow Detector’ we purchased at a high price. Within a ten-mile radius, it can sense the location of the ‘Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow.’

Tie Zhan hesitated for a moment and took out an ice-blue compass from his pocket: “According to the readings, the ice marrow is somewhere at the bottom of this valley.”

Li Yunjing took the compass, its needle spinning wildly before finally pointing towards a dark tunnel deep in the ice cavern.

“If you are interested, we are willing to serve you like loyal dogs.”

Tie Zhan said earnestly, “Just please spare us after the deed is done.”

“Lead the way then.”

Li Yunjing exchanged a glance with Zhao Qi, nodded, and said, “If we truly find the ice marrow, you’re guaranteed to live, perhaps even earning some benefits.”

“Thank you, fellow cultivator!”

Tie Zhan rejoiced, exchanged a glance with his two junior disciples, and rushed ahead to lead Li Yunjing, Zhao Qi, and Su Muqing.

At this point, Tie Zhan and the others had no other thoughts, just hoping to survive.

This mysterious young man could confront the Tier Four Demon King head-on, just from this alone, it’s clear he is a top Golden Core Realm expert, possibly even on the brink of entering the Nascent Soul Realm.

Killing them is as easy as crushing an ant for someone of this caliber.

How would Tie Zhan and the others dare to harbor any malicious intent?

The group proceeded along the tunnel.

The further they went, the colder it got, and even their breath would freeze instantly.

Tie Zhan’s two junior disciples’ lips had turned purple from the cold and had to circulate their energy to fend it off.

Suddenly, an ice path constructed with ice walls appeared ahead of them; the walls were covered with strange drawings, seemingly traces of a mysterious race’s history.

The group nervously followed him deeper into the tunnel.

After walking for about half an hour, a huge ice cave suddenly appeared before them.

In the center of the cave, a crystalline ice lotus quietly bloomed, with a droplet of azure liquid suspended at its heart, radiating a chilling aura that sent shivers down one’s spine.

“Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow!”

Zhao Qi’s voice trembled with excitement.

Just then, the entire ice cave suddenly shook violently!

The ice layer above cracked open with countless fissures as a colossal creature forcefully broke through from above.

The Ice Soul Beast had tracked them here!

“Not good!”

Tie Zhan exclaimed, “It’s going to destroy the ice cave!”

“Qi’Er, you go get the ice marrow, I’ll handle it!”

Li Yunjing’s eyes gleamed sharply, “This beast can’t harm you all!”

Before Li Yunjing’s words were finished, his figure shot up like an arrow released from a bowstring.

The “Yin Yang Five Elements Celestial Derivation Sword” burst forth with unprecedented brilliance in his hand, its runes seemingly alive, weaving a colorful light curtain in the void.

“You little thieves! How dare you try to steal my treasure!”

The Ice Soul Beast roared in fury, completely breaking through the ice layer, its massive body crashing down amidst a shower of icy debris.

Li Yunjing neither dodged nor avoided, his sword edge aimed directly at the Demon King’s heart!

“Clang…”

The sound of clashing metal echoed through the ice cave.

In that instant, the Ice Soul Beast suddenly wielded an ice divine sword!

The two swords collided, sparking dazzling embers.

Li Yunjing felt a tremendous force, his palm splitting instantly, and his entire body was knocked back, slamming heavily against the ice wall.

“Yunjing!”

Zhao Qi exclaimed in alarm, only to see Li Yunjing flip over and land steadily, blood trickling down his mouth, yet the battle intent in his eyes surged even stronger.

“Such great strength!”

Li Yunjing wiped away the blood and sneered, “Come again!”

This time, Li Yunjing played a clever trick; hidden in his sleeve, the “Boundary-Breaking Sword” was quietly ready. As the “Yin Yang Five Elements Celestial Derivation Sword” feigned an attack, at the moment of striking down, the two swords were swiftly swapped!

“Crack!”

This time, the Tier Five high-quality “Boundary-Breaking Sword” cut down, and the ice divine sword was directly split into two pieces from its blade!

The “Boundary-Breaking Sword,” capable of slicing through space, did not disappoint Li Yunjing.

“Ah… my treasure sword!”

The Ice Soul Beast was completely enraged; the broken ice divine sword was stowed away, and his palms struck his chest, causing thousands of ice cones to form around him, cascading like torrential rain!

“Hahahaha!”

Li Yunjing laughed aloud, changing his sword technique; the “Yin Yang Treasure Mirror” hovered above his head, its black and white energy forming a rapidly spinning Tai Chi pattern.

The attacking ice cones, once in contact with the light curtain, were immediately pulverized.

“Now’s the time!”

Catching the Demon King’s attack respite, with a thunderous “boom,” Li Yunjing suddenly executed the “Thunder Escape Technique,” his figure appearing like a ghost behind the Demon King.
