Master Qiao, Master Baidi Sect, and the other masters all stared blankly at the 'Thunder Cloud Technique' gathering in the sky.
Feelings of despair rose in the hearts of the great monks. They had not thought that they had paid a huge price to resist twenty attacks of the "Thunder Cloud Technique".
No matter the Taichu Sect's formation or their current state, they could no longer withstand the same twenty attacks of the 'Thunder Cloud Technique'.
But no one expected that Li Shiming did not perform twenty "Thunder Cloud Techniques", but a full forty "Thunder Cloud Techniques" were performed at the same time.
Sensing that any one of these 'Thunder Cloud Spells' is enough to kill any great cultivator here, such an attack should not appear in the Dongqi Continent. Even in the Zhongzhou Continent, only the top great cultivators can produce such powerful spells.
The eyes of the great monk of Baidi Sect flashed slightly. He secretly took out the life-saving jade talisman and activated it.
His body turned into yellow light and flew towards the gate of Taichu Sect.
He no longer wanted to stay. What did the life and death of Taichu Sect have to do with him?
After knowing that he could not resist Li Shiming's attack, he stayed only to accompany Taichu Sect to its destruction.
The life-saving jade talisman made by a powerful person of the Baidi Sect is an earth escape jade talisman. It has powerful earth escape rules and is difficult to track once it enters the earth.
However, the great monk of Baidi Sect was inside the mountain gate of Taichu Sect. The ground here was covered with a protective formation, so he could not use earth escape to travel through it. This forced him to rush out of the mountain gate of Taichu Sect before he could enter the earth.
His sudden departure made all the great monks of Taichu Sect angry. They despised such an act of deserting the battlefield.
But there was no way out. They couldn't tie up the great monk of Baidi Sect and let him die together with Taichu Sect.
Besides, they didn't have time to care about the great monk of Baidi Sect. The attack of "Thunder Cloud Technique" fell, and a greater crisis began.
Since Taichu Sect opened up the authority of the formation to the great cultivator of Baidi Sect, he was able to leave the Taichu Sect's formation without any hindrance.
Just as the yellow earth escape light he transformed into left the Taichu Sect's mountain gate and was entering the underground, a sword light appeared beside the yellow earth escape light, and then the 'Traceless Phantom Sword' with the 'Chaos Sword Intent' slashed at the earth escape light.
Li Shiming had already considered the possibility of the great monk from the Taichu Sect escaping, and had released the 'Traceless Phantom Sword' long ago.
As soon as the great monk of Baidi Sect made a move and took out the life-saving jade talisman, he observed it through his 'Divine Eyes'. That was why he was able to wait for the great monk of Baidi Sect outside the great formation in advance, since the great monk's earth escape could not be increased to the extreme speed because he was in the great formation of Taichu Sect.
It was also bad luck for the great monk of Baidi Sect, because the monks who had truly seen the 'Traceless Phantom Sword' were almost all dead, so there were very few monks who knew that he had a 'Traceless Phantom Sword' in his hand as his natal flying sword.
In particular, he had always revealed his identity as a thunder cultivator, so that all the other cultivators did not consider that he was also a sword cultivator.
Being able to master the rules in two directions at the same time is extremely unimaginable for most great monks.
Thunder cultivation and sword cultivation are both the professions with the strongest offensive power in the world of immortal cultivation. Even for ordinary cultivators, it is difficult to achieve any one of them, let alone achieve both of them.
The 'Traceless Phantom Sword' slashed at the earth escape light. Even though it was blessed by some of the powerful earth rules, under the effect of the 'Chaos Sword Intent', it still cut the Baidi Sect's great monk out of the earth escape state with one sword.
Although a part of the 'Chaos Sword Intent' was consumed in breaking the earth escape effect, the remaining 'Chaos Sword Intent' still invaded the body of the Baidi Sect's great cultivator and destroyed him crazily.
Li Shiming did not use the second sword. The 'Traceless Phantom Sword' disappeared again after just one strike.
The state of the great monk of the Baidi Sect is such that he does not need a second sword. Although he has not died yet, both his physical body and his Nascent Soul are constantly being eroded by the 'Chaos Sword Intent'. Death is only a matter of time.
Taichu Sect, one of the four major sects in Dongqi Continent, is a sect with a history of ten thousand years, but it is now suffering from a disaster of destruction.
Inside the Taichu Sect, after forty attacks of the 'Thunder Cloud Technique', the Taichu Sect's formation collapsed in just the first breath.
In fact, Li Shiming's second round of attack had already caused considerable damage to the Taichu Sect's formation. The third round of 'Thunder Cloud Technique' attacks was too fierce, causing the Taichu Sect's formation to be unable to hold on any longer.
"Run, run as many as you can!" Monk Qiao shouted with red eyes.
He did not give up resistance, and wanted to use his own efforts to buy a glimmer of chance of survival for the other great monks.
But it was obvious that his hope was too slim, and Li Shiming had no intention of letting go of all the great monks.
It was too late for the great monks to escape at this time. Under the cover of forty "Thunder Cloud Techniques", they could not escape even if they wanted to.
Perhaps when they escaped together with the great monk of Baidi Sect before, Li Shiming might have no time to split himself, and it is possible that one of the great monks escaped.
But now, with the full force of the 'Thunder Cloud Technique' unleashed, any cultivator in this area, especially the great cultivators, will be the most targeted targets of thunder and lightning.
Master Qiao watched as a master monk next to him was struck by lightning. The life breath of his body was instantly extinguished, and the Nascent Soul in his body was directly killed by the lightning.
He wanted to scream, the thousand-year-old sect was wiped out in their generation. He wanted to cry, the one who died was his best friend who he had lived with for nearly a thousand years. He wanted to do something, but his eyes were filled with thunder and lightning that seemed to destroy the world.
These thunder and lightning reminded him of the thunder tribulation he had experienced when he was promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, except that the thunder tribulation only lasted three times, while they were facing an endless stream of thunder and lightning.
He even wondered whether any of the thunder tribulations would be as powerful as the one before him, even if a great cultivator was promoted to the Half-Step Mahayana stage.
"It's over!" Monk Qiao felt that the target of the lightning was himself. Only a thought flashed through his mind, and his body was covered by the lightning.
Li Shiming took a long breath and activated forty "Thunder Cloud Techniques" at the same time, which still made him feel a little tired. It seemed that this was his current limit.
This time, he used brute force to break the Taichu Sect's formation, and killing six great monks was just a matter of course.
The Taichu Sect's mountain gate did not need any additional attacks. After the Taichu Sect's formation collapsed, countless lightning strikes first killed all the Nascent Soul cultivators. As for those cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, they did not need the attack of the "Thunder Cloud Technique" at all. The aftermath of the lightning attack alone was enough to kill them.
Li Shiming waved his hand, and a total of seven bodies of great monks flew over, including the body of the great monk from the Baidi Sect outside the mountain gate of the Taichu Sect.
He intentionally preserved the bodies of the seven great monks, and they remained intact.
If all the forty lightning attacks of the "Thunder Cloud Technique" were to be directed at the great monks, I'm afraid the six great monks within the range of the "Thunder Cloud Technique" would be blasted into pieces by the lightning.
After collecting the corpses of the seven great monks, he flew into the mountain gate of Taichu Sect.
There is no need to say much about the Taichu Sect's mountain gate. It is almost impossible to find a intact part of the entire mountain gate.
Those spiritual fields that were sufficient to provide resources for thousands of monks to practice were all destroyed by his attack.
There is no way around it. Without the protection of a magic circle, this kind of spiritual field would be severely damaged even if it were hit by the aftermath of lightning, not to mention the indiscriminate attack of the 'Thunder Cloud Technique'.
Li Shiming knew that no matter how badly the Taichu Sect's mountain gate was destroyed, the most important things would be left behind.
That is the cave heaven, which is locked together with the mountain gate of Taichu Sect. It is impossible for him to destroy it by attacking from the outside.
His spiritual sense swept across the mountain gate of Taichu Sect and soon found the entrance to the cave buried under the ruins.
The hall above the cave entrance collapsed, and the ruins of the hall that came down blocked the space gate at the cave entrance. The remains of the hall that entered the range of the space gate were forcibly cut through space and teleported into the cave.
When Li Shiming's spiritual sense discovered the cave space gate, the space gate in the ruins was still standing there. The space where the space gate was located was cut out in the ruins, which looked particularly strange.
He looked at the door to the cave space but did not enter it.
Instead, he took out 108 Buddhist beads, threw them out, and transformed them into array bases, forming an array that surrounded the mountain gate of Taichu Sect.
Then he took out his identity jade disc and contacted Master Hu.
This was one of the rare times in the past decade that the Wan Beast Sect took the initiative to attack. What was even more bizarre was that even after the other two major sects knew that the Wan Beast Sect's cultivators had been dispatched, they did not take any action.
Because both major sects had received the news that Li Shizhen, the new great monk who had returned from outside, was attacking the mountain gate of Taichu Sect.
The two major sects were waiting for news from the Taichu Sect's mountain gate. Before getting accurate information, they didn't dare to make any moves.
Li Shizhen's strength is too terrifying. Over the years, the number of great monks who have died in the Dongqi Continent is very limited. Even when the great monk from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect was attacked and killed, it was because a trap was set in advance and the great monk's numerical advantage was used to kill him.
And look at Li Shizhen, he fought one against two in a head-on manner, and even when the two great monks of the Baidi Sect had the advantage of the base formation, he still destroyed the base formation and killed the two great monks of the Baidi Sect and nearly a hundred early and middle Nascent Soul monks.
Li Shizhen's fighting power shocked the two major sects. When they got the news that Li Shizhen was going to attack the Taichu Sect's mountain gate again, they regarded this attack as a clearer judgment of Li Shiming's fighting power.
The news that the Taichu Sect's great formation had been broken and a total of seven great cultivators, including the Baidi Sect's great cultivator, had died spread back to the two major sects.
The two major sects, Lianhua Temple and Yanri Sect, could no longer sit still. Their thousand-year foundation could not be destroyed in their hands. They could no longer wait for Li Shiming to come and destroy the sect like the Taichu Sect did.
The two major sects did not even need to discuss it. They all sent a letter of surrender to Master Hu of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, and at the same time were willing to pay war compensation that would satisfy the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
The speed at which the two major sects surrendered was beyond the expectations of Master Hu.
Master Hu had just received the news from Li Shiming, and within a cup of tea, the surrender letters from the two major sects also arrived.
While rushing to Taichu Sect, Master Hu was thinking about how to reply to the two major sects.
He obtained authorization from other great monks of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and discussed with Li Shiming how to deal with the other two major sects.
Li Shiming's opinion is very important and can play a decisive role. This is recognized by all the great monks of the Wanshou Sect.
The reversal of the situation in the Wanshou Sect came from Li Shiming's fighting power.
And because of Li Shiming, the status of Master Hu, who already had great power in the sect, was once again elevated.
Master Hu flew at full speed and reached Taichu Sect at his fastest speed.
When he approached Taichu Sect, he was stunned by the scene before him.
This is the Taichu Sect that was like a fairyland. Now only ruins are left. The lightning energy left by the attack of the terrifying great monk Lei Xiu has caused lasting damage in this area.
Since the attack of Master Lei Xiu contained a trace of the rules of thunder and lightning, the thunder and lightning energy would not disappear in this area for at least thousands of years.
Master Hu did not sympathize with the Taichu Sect. He knew very well that if Li Shiming had not appeared, the gate of the Wanshou Sect would probably have the same consequence.
All he felt was gratitude, gratitude for accepting Li Shiming as his disciple, which helped the Wanshou Sect survive the most dangerous period.
"Master, you are here!" Li Shiming saw the great monk Hu and said as he created a gap in the formation.
"Shizhen, thank you for your hard work!" Master Hu entered the formation, feeling the steady aura of Li Shiming. He couldn't help but put aside the last bit of worry and said with a smile.
"It's not that hard. It just so happens that after I was promoted to a great cultivator, I also need an opponent to test my combat power!" Li Shiming said with a smile. He then introduced the situation of the Taichu Sect's mountain gate to Great Monk Hu: "I didn't enter the Taichu Sect's cave heaven, so the sect sent cultivators to explore it. I think after all these years, the sect should have some information about this cave heaven."
Li Shiming was very clear about his own destructive power. The Taichu Sect's cave heaven was of extremely high value. If they wanted to take over its entirety, it would be best if the Wanshou Sect did it.
If he explores, he will probably end up leaving a mess behind.
"The sect's intelligence on this cave has long been infiltrated and we have obtained a lot of information. I believe it won't be a big problem to accept it all!" Monk Hu said with surprise on his face as he looked at the space gate at the entrance of the cave.
Adding one more cave is equivalent to a large amount of additional resource output.
The caves left behind by powerful people, especially those that can be locked with the mountain gate, are all caves that can produce a large amount of cultivation resources.
Why is it that there are only so many great monks in the Wanshou Sect over the years? Isn’t it because they are unable to provide enough resources for the cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul?
With the addition of this cave, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect can have at least half more great cultivators.
Of course, this takes time, perhaps hundreds of years, but for a sect, hundreds of years is not too long.
