Chapter 427 Second Fragment of Thunderfire Map and Thunder Seed Information
One glare and it's damn!
This is what demonic cultivators are like.
With many battles over, even though the other Nascent Soul cultivators of the demonic path hadn't made a move, it still put immense pressure on "Purple Lightning," making him realize that he couldn't kill Wang Yu, who had offended him.
Even a complete retreat is virtually impossible.
Is it necessary to make drastic sacrifices?
Tian Du Lei Jun's face was gloomy. He pulled his hands up sharply, and thunderclouds that stretched for countless miles behind him became like a thunder prison, with purple lightning striking down from the sky.
The target... is those silver chains that seal off the void.
Seeing this, Wang Yu was determined not to let him succeed.
In the blink of an eye, the fearless Thunder Corpse suddenly rushed into the Thunder Prison, summoning thunder and lightning with all its might. Like a lightning rod, half of the lightning bolts reversed direction and surged into the Thunder Corpse.
Relying on his high lightning resistance, he targeted cultivators like Tiandu Leijun.
It's a perfect punching bag type of fighter, even more stubborn than Wang Yu, which is one of the reasons it exists!
The world was a blinding expanse of silvery white.
Just as "Purple Lightning" was about to retreat, he felt an invisible mountain pressing down on his body. He had sensed something was wrong before, but the power field generated by the Silver Moon Divine Power was invisible and intangible.
It was then covered by the Blood and Flesh Demon Sword, adding another layer of concealment.
It was only then that I realized that this newly promoted Demon Lord was actually a pure fourth-order body cultivator, which was different from the nominal body cultivators of Barbarian Ghost Peak.
It's a true case of cultivating two paths simultaneously, which is extremely troublesome.
It has no weaknesses.
Being restricted by the field of force, one feels as if they are in water, and every move is affected by the environment within the short ten-mile range of the Heavenly Lock.
His body felt as if it were enveloped in a viscous liquid, and his escape technique was weakened to an unbelievable degree. However, Wang Yu was like a dragon swimming in the sea, and since it was his home turf, he was naturally unaffected.
Therefore, the slightly outdated Aurora Escape Technique actually overwhelmed the "Purple Lightning" Thunder Escape Technique. With its increased speed, the terrifying offensive power of the Flesh and Blood Demon Sword became extremely deadly!
The sword light intertwined to form a dense sword net, leaving no room for dodge this time.
"Purple Lightning" stared at Wang Yu expressionlessly.
"I will personally take your life!"
He finished speaking.
The sword energy, imbued with spatial cutting properties, shredded Zi Dian's physical body into small, square pieces of flesh, while his nascent soul had just awakened from its dazed state.
Then he realized... his death was imminent!
Zidian was unaware of what had happened and had no time to react before being taken to the bottom of the Glazed Pagoda and directly suppressed into a coma.
The battle is over.
The last words of Tian Du Lei Jun did not have much impact on him, but they deepened his understanding of the person. If he remembered correctly, Zi Dian was the person's eldest son and also the one with the greatest potential.
He broke through to the Nascent Soul stage at such a young age; his future is limitless.
Now that he's dead, the enmity is there, but he doesn't care about offending him anymore, since he's not a member of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect anyway. The battle of Kuye City will end then.
They returned to Heishan Pass to provide support, and their pincer attack secured victory.
Once Black Mountain Pass is captured, this phase of the strategic objective will be complete, and he can naturally retreat to the mountain gate for a period of seclusion.
He carefully collected all the spoils of war, and even stored the Nascent Soul belonging to Liu Ying inside Lei's corpse into the Glazed Pagoda. This magical artifact of his had already suppressed four Nascent Souls, and its ferocious power was awe-inspiring.
It is foreseeable that he will become famous worldwide from today onwards.
Just like those well-known figures in the previous war between good and evil, they stole the spotlight.
He gathered with a group of colleagues.
The Fire Demon Old Demon said with a strange expression, "It seems you are truly unafraid of the Heavenly Thunder Lord. What are your plans now?"
"Of course, we should support Heishan Pass and take it down."
Minghu hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
He wasn't thinking about war strategies, but rather whether Wang Yu would give him a Nascent Soul, since without his full effort, neither Xiao Fulong nor Ziyun would stand a chance.
All of these will have a huge impact on the battle, and may even reverse today's situation, especially when fighting Xiao Fulong, the flames burned really painfully.
One wrong move and you could be killed by the opponent.
After all, he was only at the third level of the Nascent Soul stage, and only by fusing with the Yin Beast Nether Tiger could he barely fight against someone at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul stage. Xiao Fulong, on the other hand, was at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage, which shows how much pressure he was under.
The fact that they were able to hold them back suggests that the opponent wasn't using their full strength.
"Gather all the manpower back, collect as many valuable spiritual items as possible, retreat into the withered leaf swamp to rest for a day, and then set off for Black Mountain Pass."
Despite his seemingly brute appearance, the Demon Lord, as the nominal commander, is actually quite capable, being a member of the Wei clan.
No one had any objections to the arrangement.
After everyone dispersed, Wang Yu and Ming Hu huddled together. Although he felt a little sorry for Ming Hu, he knew that Ming Hu had indeed made a great contribution. Wang Yu then used the Glazed Pagoda to hand over Liu Ying's nascent soul to Ming Hu.
The little thing was encased in black ice, with sealing runes spreading throughout its body, completely isolating it from external perception, and its mind was also in a dormant state.
He has some experience in dealing with these things.
Wang Yu did indeed give him a Nascent Soul, and the Nether Tiger Demon Lord was overjoyed. He looked at Wang Yu as if he were a close brother, and his way of addressing him went even further.
"Thank you for the gift, Brother Wang. You are indeed the one I can trust."
Wang Yu smiled. Since he had given the gift, he had to be generous and do the right thing.
"There's no need for that. What I value most in my life is my reputation. I was at such a disadvantage in the battle between the two Zhuo brothers, and I did my best, but in the end, I was just one move behind."
"So since I promised Brother Minghu, I must keep my promise."
"Brother Wang, your righteousness is truly admirable!"
The Demon Lord of the Underworld Tiger was filled with awe and insisted on saying a few words of respect.
"I have also heard about the rivalry between the two Zhuo brothers, but it is because that person is incompetent and has nothing to do with my brother."
Once the battle at Black Mountain Pass is over, Minghu can use the spoils from these battles to exchange for resources to break through to the next realm. After a period of seclusion, he may very well have the cultivation level of the mid-Nascent Soul stage.
Wang Yu's foundation in the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect was too shallow, so he built his network step by step. Moreover, it was wartime now, and the Nether Tiger Demon Lord's strength also made him very valuable for commanding the war effort.
"By the way, speaking of which, I have never heard of which ancient demon the Yin Beast Dao cultivators inherited from, or where the seal is located."
Speaking of this, Minghu looked distressed.
"The [Ming] seal is located in the Mingshan Sect. We Yin Beast Dao cultivators are all subject to their control. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered to collect Nascent Souls."
"The key is to take advantage of the power of the Refining Heaven Demon Sect and forcibly exchange the from the Underworld Mountain Sect in order to have a chance to break through the bottleneck of the mid-stage Nascent Soul stage."
The so-called Netherworld Demon Stone and Frozen Demon Stone are actually the same thing. The latter is sealed in the Endless Ice Plains, where the Gatekeeper Tribe and the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect have been allied for generations.
Therefore, breakthrough-type resources are not lacking, but the Nether Tiger obviously does not have this treatment; everyone has their own problems.
"I see."
After chatting for a while, Qingyang, Yang Xiong, and the others, looking somewhat excited, came over and bowed to Wang Yu.
It was clear that we had a good haul, and we chatted briefly.
About two incense sticks' time later, the destroyed Kuye City was completely looted, and the Taihu reinforcements who came with Zidian and the others did not arrive.
The demonic cultivators officially retreated into the withered leaf swamp.
Occupying the city of withered leaves would have been the best option to maximize profits, but unfortunately, the place has been destroyed. Apart from the underground spiritual veins, there are no protective measures whatsoever.
If we rashly occupy it, we will become the target of everyone's criticism, and we may also face attacks from the Heavenly Thunder Lord at any time. So we can't stay any longer.
Even if the best-case scenario wasn't achieved, accomplishing the secondary goal is still good.
Wang Yu and the others left not long after.
A bolt of lightning rushed from the sky, revealing a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe with lightning patterns. His hair and beard stood upside down in an eerie fashion, and countless floating lightning bolts swirled around him.
With just a cold snort, a thunderous roar resounded in the air.
"It is indeed the Thunder Lord of Heavenly Capital," he murmured softly.
"Well done, you Extreme Law Profound Pill Demon Lord, I will remember you."
…………
…………
They retreated back into the valley where they had temporarily taken refuge last time.
This time, because of the people brought by the Fire Demon, the valley was almost completely filled, and many people died in the Battle of Withered Leaf City.
Even in a game where you have a significant advantage.
There was also a casualty rate of nearly 50%, with the majority of the deaths being Qi Refining Demon Cultivators, which were not worth mentioning.
The main force, the Foundation Establishment and Core Formation cultivators, suffered very few casualties, with no more than twenty effective deaths or injuries, which was sufficient.
Speed is of the essence in war.
Before news of the Battle of Kuye City reached Heishan Pass, they had to cooperate with the Evil Soul Ancestor and the Nether Blade Demon Lord to attack Heishan Pass from both sides.
Therefore, there is only one day to recover mana.
However, beings like Tiandu Leijun and Yinyue Tonglao are all Nascent Soul Grand Perfection experts from Taihu Lake, and may possess advanced communication magic treasures in private.
Therefore, the plan to attack Heishan Pass from both sides was also an open strategy.
Otherwise, there would be no need to intercept the support team at the pass. As long as they wiped out their own men, with no one in charge of the defensive formation, Silver Moon Child Granny and Haoran Sword Master would be like fish deep into the enemy's belly.
Sooner or later it will be crushed, and the existence of the perilous pass will lose its meaning.
There's no need to hold on so stubbornly.
While the others rested and sent messages, Wang Yu circulated his cultivation technique to absorb the pure spiritual energy from the top-grade spirit stones to restore his demonic energy, and also used his divine sense to check the spoils of this battle.
Both Zidian and Liuying's storage rings are with him.
The latter's collection was unremarkable, but he was somewhat interested in a few of the inheritances belonging to the Wangyue Palace, since they also originated from the ancient Taiyin Sect.
He was extremely interested in this sect.
Unfortunately, it's not a core inheritance, so its wealth and resources are just average, on par with the two old men of Yougu. However, that Crescent Moon Scissors is quite nice.
"So poor."
As for Zidian's storage ring, strictly speaking, it was the second time he had managed to steal it. If the person hadn't already been sent away, there might have been a third time.
Zi Dian's storage ring didn't contain many items, perhaps because he hadn't had time to replenish it yet. It mainly contained miscellaneous items and daily necessities, as well as a variety of tokens.
After acquiring a batch of top-quality spirit stones, the most valuable item was a fragment of a map.
A map that Wang Yu once obtained, but which is difficult to match with the current cultivation world, is called the [Thunderfire Remnant Map]!
This thing is, strictly speaking, a treasure map.
When the first patriarch of Lei Huo Guan traveled through the Ice Prison Realm, he recorded the spiritual fires and special lightning he discovered in the map, which can only be understood by using it in conjunction with an ancient map.
Wang Yu was extremely interested in Lei Dao.
His Wind and Thunder Secret Technique had been of great help to him, and he also possessed a Thunder Devouring Secret Technique, which could help him obtain a Thunder Spirit Root and wield the power of lightning.
In the long run, its potential is quite remarkable. The most famous supernatural power of Lei Huo Guan is called the "Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire Seal," which requires cultivation with spiritual flames and wondrous thunder, and its power is boundless.
It was even more famous than the series of bankrupt supernatural powers of the Yellow Springs Temple.
Although the two fragments of the map have different contents, they can be pieced together. It is normal for the terrain to change over time and with the vicissitudes of life.
However, some landmarks are unchanging even with the passage of time.
Such places often gather extraordinary forces from heaven and earth.
At the junction of the two fragments of the map, a flash of inspiration struck Wang Yu. He seemed to remember such a place, and after a moment of recollection, he suddenly realized what it meant.
"—Jilei Mountain?!"
This place is located in the southern part of Yunling Prefecture. After passing through the Three Thousand Li Reed Lake and the Yama Ghost City, it is located five thousand li further south, at the junction of the Dead Desert and Tao Prefecture.
Both places are under the jurisdiction of Huangquan Temple, but part of Jilei Mountain is also located in Yunling. At this time, the battle there is in full swing, so it is not suitable to go looking for any thunder seeds.
Therefore, Wang Yu only glanced at it briefly and put his thoughts on it aside for the time being.
Besides the strange lightning, the Thunderfire Remnant Map also contains spiritual flames nurtured by heaven and earth, with abundant origin and infinite potential. If one could obtain one or two of these flames, they could be used to nourish the Ice Dragon Pill Flame.
Feeling that this fire would advance to the fifth rank and have a truly feasible path, Wang Yu took this map very seriously and planned to return to his sect to find an ancient map for comparison.
One day later, the rest period ended.
The group rushed to Black Mountain Pass without stopping, discussing along the way what tactics to use, given the immense fame of Silver Moon Child Granny and Righteous Sword Master.
They were somewhat uneasy.
Especially regarding the matter of Tiandu Leijun, if he really arrives in Kuye City and makes contact with Heishan Pass, he is very likely to appear in this crucial battle.
However, once the enemy has an additional Nascent Soul Grand Perfection cultivator...
The situation could reverse in an instant. How to allocate high-end combat power to create an advantage in certain areas is something those Nascent Soul cultivators need to consider.
Apart from the Sword Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Other dominant forces do not actually have much control over late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators; they mostly offer suggestions and discussions rather than issuing orders.
This leads to a degree of randomness.
They may achieve unparalleled feats, or they may become clowns, their reputations ruined overnight. Beings with too much autonomy are actually not suitable for war.
To some extent, this is a distorted form of individual heroism; one step can lead to both heaven and hell.
Youmo Barbarian King: "Regarding the battle of Kuye City, I have already advised the Holy Sect and the Evil Soul Ancestor through the Lingxi Zhen. They will be wary of Tiandu Leijun, so there is no need to worry too much."
Fire Demon nodded in agreement, looking at Wang Yu's calm expression: "Look, even our fellow disciples who killed Tian Du's son are not afraid, so what do we have to fear?"
Wang Yu's eyes twitched upon hearing this.
Yin Yang said, "Fellow Daoist Huo Gui, why don't you think about the Sword Master Hao Ran? I heard that during the last battle between the righteous and the demonic, you captured his disciple and sold him to those lewd demons of the He Huan Sect."
The group fell silent. The Fire Demon rubbed his ugly face, his features melting away and rapidly transforming into a different appearance.
They don't care if they are ridiculed.
"Thank you for reminding me, Fellow Daoist Xuandan. I almost forgot to disguise myself."
at the same time.
In the camp outside Black Mountain Pass, the Evil Soul Ancestor looked satisfied after reading the intelligence sent back by the Nether Demon Barbarian King.
"Even the heavens are coming; are we confident we can succeed?"
