Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1528: Threatening Divinity Transformation, Planting a Nail
Previously on Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill...
The pitch-black passage concealed the surrounding scenery, and Li Yunjing used the “Five-Colored Divine Light” for protection, leading Zhao Qi and Su Muqing into the depths.
After a hundred breaths, the scene suddenly transformed, opening up to a world of ice and snow.
Feather-like snowflakes drifted from the sky while ice mountains towered in the distance, vaguely revealing an ice crystal palace.
“Is this the Profound Ice Secret Realm?”
Zhao Qi exclaimed in amazement, “Such rich ice element spiritual energy!”
“Let’s go! We need to ascend the mountain!”
The three continued to explore deeper into the secret realm, where the cold became increasingly intense, and even their breath instantly condensed into ice crystals.
“This chill is peculiar.”
Zhao Qi rubbed her arms, “My protective spiritual power is almost unable to withstand it.”
Li Yunjing retrieved two crimson jade pendants from the “Storage Ring”: “I got these Flame Sun Pendants from Hansong; wear them.”
Su Muqing took the pendants, instantly feeling a warm flow coursing through her limbs and bones.
“Fellow Daoist Li, these are too precious…”
She was surprised to find that the pendants were carved from rare “Earth Core Fire Jade,” highly valuable.
“In a secret realm full of crises, maintaining optimal condition is crucial.”
Li Yunjing waved his hand nonchalantly as he spoke.
Just then, there was a crisp “crack” sound ahead.
The three paused vigilantly, spotting countless fine cracks forming on the ice surface. An entirely crystalline ice wolf crawled out from the crevice, as large as ten feet!
“Tier Four Demon Beast, Profound Ice Demon Wolf!”
Zhao Qi gasped.
The “Profound Ice Demon Wolf” emitted an eerie blue cold light from its eyes and spat out a swift ice blade!
Li Yunjing had been prepared, slashing with the “Boundary-Breaking Sword” to sever the ice blade.
But more Tier Three ice wolves emerged from the crevices, forming a surrounding group of dozens in an instant.
“I didn’t expect to encounter such beings within the secret realm.”
Li Yunjing shouted lowly; the three stood back to back.
Su Muqing wielded the “Cold Moon Wheel,” its sharp wheel blades spinning toward the nearest ice wolf.
The ice wolf nimbly dodged but was ensnared by Zhao Qi’s Golden Light Bind Immortal Rope, and immediately sliced into two by the wheel blades.
Li Yunjing charged directly into the wolf pack; where the “Boundary-Breaking Sword” passed, ice wolves shattered one after another.
Yet strangely, those shattered ice pieces quickly wriggled and reformed!
“They can regenerate endlessly!”
Su Muqing’s face turned pale.
“These ice wolves are not living creatures but puppet mechanism beasts!”
Li Yunjing frowned, suddenly realizing something.
He sheathed his sword and formed seals with both hands, chanting, “Samadhi True Fire, burn the heavens and earth!”
A crimson fire column erupted from his palm, emitting piercing screams from the ice wolves as they turned into pools of ice water, unable to reform.
Zhao Qi, seeing this, also took out a stack of Fire Element Talismans to coordinate with Su Muqing’s “Flame Sun Art,” quickly clearing the remaining ice wolves.
Only the largest Wolf King remained on the mountain path!
Li Yunjing roared fiercely, transforming sword light into a Thunder Dragon that charged at the “Profound Ice Demon Wolf” with a roar.
Lightning collided with ice, erupting into deafening booms.
The “Profound Ice Demon Wolf” faltered several steps backward under the strike, with a deep fissure appearing on its body.
In anger, it waved its front limbs, unleashing sharp claws as numerous ice cones suddenly emerged from the ground!
Li Yunjing’s figure flickered like lightning, deftly weaving through the ice cones.
“Samadhi True Fire Talisman!”
An array plate suddenly flew out, transforming into a sky of flames and thick smoke, fully trapping the “Profound Ice Demon Wolf” within.
The “Profound Ice Demon Wolf’s” movements hesitated, and Li Yunjing seized the opportunity, leaping up with the “Boundary-Breaking Sword” shining brightly, directly stabbing into the “Profound Ice Demon Wolf’s” eye!
“Awoo…”
The “Profound Ice Demon Wolf” let out a mournful wail and its massive body crashed down, shattering into countless fragments of ice.
A fist-sized blue crystal nucleus tumbled out, appearing to circulate liquid inside, magnificently beautiful.
“Tier Four Profound Ice Essence!”
Zhao Qi exclaimed, “This is a priceless treasure!”
“There’s something inside these demon beasts.”
Using his sword tip, Li Yunjing uncovered a blue crystal nucleus embedded in the remains of a Tier Three ice wolf.
“Additionally, more Profound Ice Essence!”
Zhao Qi exclaimed in delight, “We’re going to be rich!”
“Everyone, start searching!”
Li Yunjing instructed, and the three scattered to quickly search, looking to see if any worthy items remained among the ice wolf remains.
The three rapidly collected the spoils, acquiring twelve crystal nuclei in total.
Li Yunjing evenly divided them, four per person.
As for more?
They had already turned to ashes.
Shortly after, the three appeared in front of an ice crystal palace.
“Is this the Profound Ice True Monarch’s Dao Field?”
Zhao Qi asked curiously.
“Possibly!”
Li Yunjing nodded, “The remnant souls we encountered earlier might belong to the Profound Ice True Monarch, that ancient being!”
“What!”
Su Muqing jumped in fright, “Divinity Transformation Realm True Monarch?”
“Let’s go closer and take a look!”
Li Yunjing sneered and shouted, “Profound Ice True Monarch, you decrepit creature, come out!”
Having confronted Divinity Transformation Realm True Monarchs several times, Li Yunjing’s courage had grown considerably.
He revered True Monarchs in their peak states.
Encounters with someone like the Profound Ice True Monarch, on the verge of death, elicited no politeness from Li Yunjing.
Moreover, what did this being claim?
To treat him as a sacrificial offering?
In Li Yunjing’s eyes, such a fate ensured they wouldn’t be of the same kind.
Anyway, he already had methods to deal with the remnants of Divinity Transformation Realm True Monarchs.
Profound Yin True Monarch served as a prior example!
“Alright!”
Seeing Li Yunjing’s audacity, Zhao Qi and Su Muqing were secretly amazed, but having come this far, they could only follow obediently, placing all their hope in Li Yunjing.
