"court death!"
The sound echoed in the void, and a terrifying aura rose up with it.
Faced with this powerful will, in an instant, the wind stopped, the clouds ceased, and the thunder ceased; only the overwhelming spirit that could sweep away everything impacted all directions.
"Who is this person?!"
At that instant, even the eyelids of the Thunder Venerable twitched wildly.
Although the original owner of this body, Lei Dong, was only a martial artist who had just stepped into the Martial Saint realm, he was a genuine Celestial Being.
What kind of people haven't I seen?
He had met more than one of the legendary martial gods.
However, at this moment, a chill ran through him.
The moment the other party opened its eyes and roared angrily, it was as if a god was enraged, or a Buddha was questioning its crimes. He could not see the source of its power at all, but could only feel its infinite power in that seemingly frail body.
It's completely unfathomable.
"But this aura is definitely not that of an ordinary person... Could it be that the other party has broken through to the Celestial Realm, and even received the favor of the Great Dao?"
The Heavenly Thunder Venerable's thoughts flashed rapidly.
Legend has it that those chosen ones, blessed by heaven, possess extraordinary physiques and exceptional talents, and upon breaking through to the next level, they may even receive blessings from the Great Dao.
Such prodigies are often found in the biographies of great emperors and god-kings.
Unexpectedly, he encountered the real person?
Before the thought could even cross his mind, a fist shimmering with golden light appeared before him, seemingly slow but actually incredibly fast.
"die!"
Li Ming didn't bother to say more. Given the extent of the commotion the other side had made, he already knew that two powerful Martial Saints were fighting. However, he was at a crucial stage of his breakthrough and it wasn't convenient for him to investigate further.
At that moment, he could tell at a glance that the person's primordial spirit and physical body were not in a completely compatible state.
It doesn't seem like the primordial spirit has been damaged.
It's just like a classic scene from a cultivation novel I read in my previous life.
Possession!
A martial artist who has reached this stage of cultivation does indeed have the opportunity to do such a thing.
However, the conditions for possession are harsh and the cost is extremely high, so many people are unwilling or have no opportunity to do it.
"ah!"
In an instant, everything went black before Heavenly Thunder Venerable's eyes, and his thoughts seemed to be forcibly stopped.
His powerful fist intent and strength left him no time to think.
It was as if a curtain of heaven had fallen, obscuring all light and perception.
A chill ran through him. Even before the force of the punch reached him, he knew he had to use all his strength to defend himself.
"Run!"
Without hesitation, he immediately used his celestial power to resist, and then lightning crackled beneath his feet as he turned to flee.
In an instant, a punch arrived, like the rising sun, its scalding heat rushing towards you.
It landed heavily on his chin from top to bottom, and then an unstoppable force instantly spread throughout his body.
Click!
A crisp, heart-stopping sound rang out, startling Wu Cheng, who had been staring in disbelief not far away, back to reality.
He looked back and saw blood splattering everywhere in the sky. The terrifying being who called himself the Heavenly Thunder Venerable had been knocked away and was lying on the ground, unable to get up.
Boom!
The thunder roared incessantly, as if the thunder god in the sky had been enraged. The once-hard ground was now cracking open inch by inch, like a spider web.
"He is..."
His body trembled, and as he gazed at the godlike figure, Wu Cheng's expression momentarily became dazed.
It was as if he had returned to many years ago, before he had become a Martial Saint, and met the Lord of the Sky Patrol Division.
Such was the majesty of the heavens and men.
But... this person in front of me seems somewhat familiar.
"ah!"
A mournful wail accompanied by a cloud of mud and sand shooting into the sky—it was the voice of the Thunder God, filled with both frustration and extreme rage.
"Your bones are quite hard, aren't they?"
As soon as the faint voice rang out, it instantly suppressed all the noise. The golden light dissipated, and dust filled the sky. Li Ming watched as the lightning swirling around the other party dissipated, and his aura became weaker and weaker.
Amidst the billowing dust, Li Ming's clothes fluttered in the wind, the dramatic changes he experienced during his breakthrough still ongoing.
He was getting stronger all the time, to the point that he almost had the illusion of being 'omnipotent'.
A quick glance at the system panel reveals text that keeps appearing and refreshing.

"Finally, I've almost broken through..."
Looking at the Thunder Venerable lying on his feet like mud, Li Ming wasn't too worried about the other party escaping. Instead, he focused on the changes within himself.
The unity of Dharma and form is a very important step on the path to becoming a Martial Saint.
At the same time, it is an "inhuman step" of restructuring one's own body.
It has been completely transformed; it is no longer fake.
Not only have martial arts techniques made great progress, but many terms have also quietly evolved.
In his perception, the essence of all things in the world can be quickly analyzed and understood by him.
Even without opening one's third eye, one can still perceive the interweaving of countless energies within sight.
The purple-level divine enlightenment allows the state of communion between heaven and man to reside permanently within one's body. Without deliberate effort, one can capture the residual information between heaven and earth and perfect one's inner world.
Meanwhile, his potential is being continuously explored, and many of his attributes are evolving autonomously.
These forces certainly don't arise from nothing.
It is not, as the Heavenly Thunder Venerable said, that the Great Dao favors them.
In fact, the effects of Tianyuan Liquid are astonishing.
After he completed his breakthrough, the Heavenly Essence Liquid was continuously refined, and boundless power surged from his body.
His bloodline and innate qualities are extraordinary, and under the powerful pressure of the union of Dharma and form, they are constantly stimulated.
This allows his qi and blood, and his true essence, to continuously become more refined.
In a very short time, it broke through to the third level.
Rapid progress.
Li Ming felt confident that he could even face a Celestial Realm expert.
Because after opening up their own inner world, they all developed some resistance to the realm of the celestial beings.
No longer did he feel completely helpless, just like he had when facing his cheap master before.
"ah……"
The roar of the Thunder God had become extremely weak.
Even though he realized that the person in front of him was distracted, he found that he still had no room to resist.
Every time he tried to use his supernatural powers to retaliate, he would be kicked hard. The powerful force was so strong that he could not resist it at all and could only cough up blood again.
This infuriated him to the extreme, and at the same time, he felt extremely frustrated.
He's a celestial being!
