The so-called Thunderfire Calamity is made by combining raw materials such as saltpeter and sulfur used to make gunpowder using weapon-making methods. Then, a master weapon maker inscribes forty-nine seals into a small gunpowder ball the size of a pigeon egg to increase its power after detonation, thus turning it into a deadly weapon capable of harming cultivators.

The Thunderfire Calamity was created by a great supernatural being in ancient times, and its power is astonishing. A Thunderfire Calamity the size of a pigeon egg can destroy everything within a radius of five miles, but corresponding to its power, the damage it leaves on the land is also extremely devastating.

The land destroyed by the lightning and fire calamity will be barren and devoid of vegetation. The spiritual energy that filled that world will be disturbed and become thinner, and this situation will continue for thousands of years before it slowly begins to recover.

Such a ferocious creature was truly against the will of Heaven. The people of the cultivation world did not want to destroy the Central Plains, the land where they lived, and were also afraid of divine punishment. Therefore, the Thunderfire Calamity was banned soon after it was developed, and the method of making it was gradually lost and rarely mentioned anymore.

After Liang Yihan finished speaking, he fell silent. Yuan Ling also remained silent. The two of them simply watched the thirty sect leaders chatting animatedly, their expressions quite fascinating.

On one hand, they considered themselves righteous and naturally did not want to use such a malevolent force that would harm the natural order. On the other hand, they also knew that if they were to use the Thunderfire Tribulation, it would ensure that their righteous side would win this war between good and evil without suffering too much damage to their own strength.

Embarrassingly, due to their painstaking efforts to maintain a respectable image, they talked for a long time, but no one was willing to take the lead in responding to the matter.

After a long while, the conversation in the hall gradually subsided, and the thirty sect leaders fell silent one after another. However, none of them spoke about the Thunderfire Tribulation; they simply lowered their heads and remained silent.

The hall fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Yuan Ling waited a moment, a mocking look flashing in his eyes. He lowered his head to hide the look in his eyes, coughed lightly, then raised his head and asked loudly, "I wonder how the sect leaders have discussed this? Should we use the Thunderfire Tribulation or not?"

After Yuan Ling said this, the hall remained completely silent.

Yuan Ling smiled faintly and added, "A few days ago, the demon race invaded, and my Yuan Dao Sect suffered heavy casualties. Although we wanted to do our part for the righteous people of the Central Plains, we were ultimately powerless. The disciples of my sect came up with this idea, and naturally, my Yuan Dao Sect should be responsible for refining the Thunderfire Tribulation. In this way, it can be considered that my Yuan Dao Sect has done its best for the war between the righteous and the demons. As for whether to use this method, it is up to your decision. I wonder what your thoughts are?"

All thirty sect leaders had their heads down, deep in thought, and remained completely unresponsive.

Yuan Ling then fell silent and waited quietly.

Time passed slowly in silence, and after a long silence, the leader of a Taoist sect finally spoke.

The first sect leader to speak appeared to be a middle-aged man, and his cultivation level was not high among the sect leaders, only at the late Nascent Soul stage. His Dao Sect should be a newly emerging sect.

The middle-aged man had a square face, thick eyebrows, large eyes, a straight nose, and a square mouth, exuding an aura of righteousness. After waiting for a long time and seeing no one answer, he finally lost his composure, frowning and saying in a deep voice, "What are you all hesitating about? This Thunderfire Tribulation must not be used! You are all aware of the harm it inflicts on heaven and earth. Moreover, if this malevolent force were to reappear in the world, it would be extremely difficult to prevent it, and who knows how many troubles it would cause! This thing must absolutely not be used!"

As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, the expressions on the faces of the sect leaders in the hall immediately became subtle. They exchanged glances in twos and threes, and exchanged tacit understandings with those they knew well.

The thirty sect leaders remained silent, waiting for someone to lose their composure and step forward first. If the first person agreed, they would hesitate for a moment, then agree as well. But if the first person disagreed, they would naturally refuse to agree.

In this way, whether it is the responsibility for the heavy losses or even the crushing defeat of the righteous disciples due to not using the Thunderfire Tribulation, or the responsibility for the terrible damage to the world caused after using the Thunderfire Tribulation, it will not fall on their shoulders, right?
