Chapter 475: Let’s Go See the Thunder Emperor

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhong Ao sensed the distinct nomological aura between Heaven and Earth. Not only was he merging his Principal Spirit and physical body, but his cultivation level was also rising. He had even forgotten that he was not upgrading his cultivation level but should be accelerating merging his Principal Spirit and body.

The surrounding dozens of high-grade immortal spirit meridians and the green spirit meridian were slowly used up.

Two huge Essence Energy whirlpools bound Di Jiu and Zhong Ao. Di Jiu’s cultivation level improved even faster. Fourth-stage Immortal Supremacy, fifth-stage Immortal Supremacy…

Even Black Fire, who was on the further end, felt his cultivation level rise rapidly at this moment. By the time Di Jiu reached the sixth-stage Immortal Supremacy, it had already gone up to the level-eight immortal demon Thunder Tribulation.

Black Fire’s level-eight immortal demon Thunder Tribulation awakened Zhong Ao. Zhong Ao was also worried at the moment. He had already woken up from his carefree, uninhibited cultivation. His Principal Spirit and physical body were almost done merging, and he could currently even sense the suppression of the Heaven Earth Law.

He could not go on like this. Otherwise, how would he still have the chance to help Di Jiu?

However, Zhong Ao very soon realized that he was unable to stop his cultivation level from rising rapidly at all. If this went on, he would not be helping Di Jiu. Instead, he would be crushed into scraps by the Heaven Earth Law.

“Brother Di Jiu, I’m going. We’ll meet in the future if there is a chance. Be careful when you find the Thunder Emperor. That bastard is even stronger than Ye Xi…” Zhong Ao could not wait any longer. Thus, he lifted his hand, wanting to tear apart the space. However, it was not easy to do that, even though his cultivation level surpassed an Immortal Emperor’s by far.

Boom! Boom! Boom! A few loud thunder streaks came rumbling down. Zhong Ao hurriedly made use of these thunder streaks to rip apart the Two-Realm Valley’s weak space. His body entered the space along with the Thunder Tribulation and he vanished.

Once Zhong Ao vanished, Di Jiu awakened from his cultivation and saw that the dozen-feet-long Green Essence Energy Meridian was only left with about five feet. 20 high-grade immortal spirit meridians had also mostly disintegrated into chunks.

“Black Fire, you’ve advanced into a level-eight immortal demon beast?” Di Jiu noticed that Black Fire’s surrounding aura had strengthened after the advancement.

Black Fire was no longer a black ball. His head and body were clearly separated, and his four claws kept becoming increasingly sharper. As he stood on the ground, he was about a meter tall and had a horn that had turned purple-red.

“Yes, Big Brother. When Old Zhong was merging his Principal Spirit and physical body just now, the Essence Energy on that Green Essence Energy Meridian was removed, making my cultivation speed particularly fast…”

Di Jiu then asked, “Black Fire, where’s Old Zhong?”

“Big Brother, when you entered deep reclusive cultivation just now, Old Zhong was suppressed by the Heaven Earth Law. He could only make use of the Thunder Tribulation to break open this void and enter another realm. That’s right. Before Old Zhong left, he asked you to be careful when you find the Thunder Emperor. He said he was more powerful than Ye Xi.”

“How long have we been here?” Di Jiu sighed silently. Zhong Ao had left, so he had to find the Thunder Emperor alone. The good news was that he had already become a seventh-stage Immortal Supremacy. He was at a completely different stage from his previous first-stage Immortal Supremacy.

However, despite being a seventh-stage Immortal Supremacy, he was still only an Immortal Supremacy.

“It’s been almost a year,” Black Fire answered.

Di Jiu sighed and said, “Let’s go see the Thunder Emperor.”

Time waited for no man. If Zhong Ao had not had to merge his physical body and Principal Spirit a year ago, he would have gone to find the Thunder Emperor.

If he could cultivate for another two or three years, he was certain he could make use of the remaining five-feet Green Essence Energy Meridian to become an Immortal Emperor.

When he managed to do that, he would go find the Thunder Emperor without any pressure whatsoever. However, if he went now, it would be fine if there was only one Thunder Emperor. If there were many people, he was afraid he was going to be injured. Di Jiu had not thought that the Thunder Emperor would get rid of him before. No Immortal Emperor in the Immortal World could catch up with his Spiritual Force escape technique. As long as he wanted to leave, nobody in the Immortal World could get rid of him.

He was afraid he would be unable to take Qu Hen and Chen Zishun away. One of them was a grade-nine Immortal Alchemy Emperor and the other was a grade-eight Immortal Alchemy Supremacy. As long as the Thunder Emperor was not stupid, he would not kill them under normal circumstances.

…

The Thunder Yang Sect, the Thunder Court Immortal Continent’s top sect, was the cultivation sacred ground with the richest Heaven Earth Essence Energy in the entire Thunder Court Immortal Continent. Every cultivator in the Thunder Court Immortal Continent naturally wanted to join the Thunder Yang Sect the most.

Unfortunately, it was too hard to join the Thunder Yang Sect. This was because of the Thunder Yang Sect’s high expectations, not because they only took in Thunder Spirit Root disciples.

The large arrays outside the Thunder Yang Sect had already been built into a huge military hall. Countless Thunder Court Immortal Continent cultivators had gathered there and established a cultivator army at the last moment to face those countless immortal demon beasts.

The immortal demon beasts that entered the Thunder Court Immortal Continent were not as reckless as before. After so many years of battles, these immortal demon beasts had already established their own territory in the Thunder Court Immortal Continent and were quite well-organized. These void immortal demon beasts set up arrays to draw a line between the Thunder Court Immortal Continent’s surviving cultivators.

Di Jiu saw that when he arrived with his Primeval Thunder Rock.

There were countless void immortal demon beasts on one side, and the Thunder Court Continent cultivators were blocked by the large arrays on the other side.

He and Black Fire were beside the void immortal demon beasts. It was no wonder that after he had killed Kong Xiangxin, nobody had found Zhong Ao and his cultivating place. It turned out that the territory they were all in had already been occupied by the immortal demon beasts.

Even though the immortal demon beasts and the Thunder Court Continent cultivators were hindered by the large arrays, the immortal demon beasts clearly did not know their place and kept attacking the large arrays. The Thunder Court Continent Array Master kept mending the large arrays. Occasionally, large arrays were ripped apart and when a big group of immortal demon beasts charged in, they were stopped by the numerous cultivators and entered a chaotic battle.

The space was filled with an aura that reeked of blood, which let Di Jiu know that countless cultivators and immortal demon beasts had died during this huge battle.

He sighed. The Thunder Court Immortal Continent did not seem any better than the Square Immortal Continent.

When the Square Immortal Continent had entered a sunset state, the cultivators had entered a chaotic battle. In the end, some seeds had been left due to his intervention. However, the cultivators and void immortal demon beasts were locked in a huge battle in the Thunder Court Immortal Continent. If these void immortal demon beasts were not killed, some seeds would not even be left behind.

Although this battle seemed to stem from a different origin, it would lead to the same ending eventually. All the cultivators of this immortal continent would ultimately perish.

In the Square Immortal Continent, Immortal Emperor Yi Mang had snatched the Square Immortal Cauldron that ensured the light from providence would shine in the Immortal World, which had led to a sunset state. What about the Thunder Court Immortal Continent?

If there was also a man-made cause in the Thunder Court Immortal Continent, then it would be somewhat strange.

Unless this bastard was crazy and had attracted the void Beast Tide over?

“Big Brother, my blue flame is already at the level-seven immortal flame peak. We can just go ahead and kill them.” Black Fire, who had just become a level-eight immortal demon beast, was eager to give it a try. He had only watched from the sidelines the previous Beast Tide in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, which had not been satisfying.

Di Jiu gestured with his hands. “If we do that, even if we don’t die, we will get injured. Did you think the void immortal demon beasts here would be the same as the Beast Tide outside the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City? That Beast Tide was attacked in the void and they fled in all directions.

The Beast Tide here has already formed to such an extent that there is nowhere to flee. They will frantically rush forth if they are attacked. Your level-seven immortal flame would probably be able to deal with one or two level-nine immortal demon beasts. This is a Beast Tide. Do you know how many peak immortal demon beasts there are? At least many more than those outside the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City. Besides, we still have to deal with the Thunder Court Immortal Continent’s Thunder Emperor. How many experts are by his side? It would be terrible for us if this happened.”

When Di Jiu had been outside the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, he had used the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City’s Strangulation Array and Confinement Killing Array.

“What should we do then?” Black Fire asked.

Di Jiu set up Nomological Array flags as he told him, “We will set up Confinement Killing Arrays and leave ourselves a way out first.”

Di Jiu set up Nomological Array flags one after another. After all, there were simply too many void immortal demon beasts here. The tide was endless while Di Jiu scanned it with his Spiritual Force.

Despite how careful he was, he and Black Fire were discovered by the demon beasts on the third day. These void immortal demon beasts had been facing the Thunder Court Immortal Continent cultivators there for years. Once they discovered Di Jiu, the frantic beast group charged towards Di Jiu in a swarm.

Di Jiu told Black Fire, who was by his side, “Let’s go. We can meet the Thunder Emperor.”

The Primeval Thunder Rock under Di Jiu’s feet transformed thunder streaks one after another. The thunder streaks flickered, and Di Jiu charged into the beast group with Black Fire.

They felt like dough twists being fried in a deep fryer. It crackled and rattled everywhere thanks to the Primeval Thunder Rock’s thunder streaks. The only difference was that this was a thunder explosion. Di Jiu had become a seventh-stage Immortal Supremacy, so even level-seven immortal demon beasts would be killed in one go.

Black Fire followed Di Jiu and also used his fire blade. He put away the void immortal demon beasts who did not die after one thunder explosion.

Their frantic actions finally attracted level-nine immortal demon beasts. About seven to eight level-nine peak immortal demon beasts charged towards Di Jiu.
