Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Zhou Tianbao didn't say a word, his face turning as red as a pig's liver. He was proud and conceited his whole life, and had never suffered such a loss. A ball of anger was simmering in his heart, but he couldn't vent it.

Without a doubt, the only one who could approach silently, restrain him in an instant, and leave him unable to resist was a Nascent Soul cultivator. Only such an existence would take things and then spare his life.

However, this cultivator also had some quirks. He took away the mid-grade spirit talisman and low-grade spirit stones, but didn't seem to care for his few high-grade and top-grade magical artifacts.

The Lin-surnamed cultivator beside him stood there dumbfounded, not daring to look around, not even daring to breathe loudly. Losing the Yin Lightning Fruit and many other items was certainly painful, but if he provoked this Senior Brother Zhou to lose his temper, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After a long while, Zhou Tianbao said with a gloomy face, "That True Person wouldn't have gone too far. Let's go to the Red Earth Ridge in the south and wait."

Zhang Yuanjing heard him clearly, knowing that Red Earth Ridge was more than 500,000 miles away to the south. It was a mountain range with abundant earth fire, extremely dangerous, but quite popular with fire-attribute demon beasts or cultivators who practiced fire techniques.

He didn't plan to follow them. He already had the two cauldron-shaped magical artifacts in hand, and he could take advantage of the Burning Sun Mountain cultivators going south to explore the Thunder Valley.

He traveled all the way to the entrance of Thunder Valley. Here, the ground was littered with broken limbs and pieces of flesh. Many charred demon beast corpses were lying scattered among the rocks. The stench of burning was pervasive, making people nauseous. There wasn't a single living demon beast to be seen here. He didn't know where the two transformed great demons had gone to fight with those two True Persons.

Only the wind howled, and the thunder rumbled.

Zhang Yuanjing first went to the mountains on the left, found a secluded place with dense forests, and took out the cauldron-shaped magical artifact to refine.

He didn't know the name of this thing. Its aura was very heavy, and its weight was quite large, like a small mountain. When it was sacrificed in the sky, it consumed a lot of his mana.

After half a day, he had initially refined both cauldron-shaped magical artifacts, and also explored the function of the magical artifacts. This cauldron was specially made to deal with thunder, and had no other use.

He didn't delay too much. He suspended the big cauldron above his head and walked into Thunder Valley.

Just as he was about to step into the valley entrance, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky, striking the big cauldron. In that instant, he instinctively wanted to dodge. Just as he took a step, the lightning had already crashed into the big cauldron.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound of lightning strike rang out in the cauldron, and the cauldron body clearly trembled, but quickly stabilized, unharmed. Not only that, but it also left a wisp of lightning power at the bottom of the cauldron, swirling and dancing like a游鱼.

His eyes narrowed immediately, and he had some hesitation about exploring the valley. The big cauldron could intercept lightning power, which he hadn't expected. This might be of great use, but for him, it was a hidden danger. When the cauldron no longer had space to accommodate lightning power, it would mean that it could no longer resist the invasion of lightning.

Previously, before the few from Burning Sun Mountain left Thunder Valley, they had released the lightning power in the cauldron to attack the enemy, but Zhang Yuanjing hadn't seen it. He had refined this magical artifact too hastily, and hadn't discovered this function.

However, he only hesitated for a moment before striding quickly into Thunder Valley.

The road in Thunder Valley was similar to the outside, with rugged rocks and many holes. Some places also accumulated a lot of lightning power. If you weren't careful, it would be easy to detonate it.

He held the remaining half of the black branch that the Core Formation Realm Great Perfection Gu Monkey had used in his hand, just in case. When he encountered rocks with electric snakes twitching, he carefully avoided them, sometimes walking quickly, sometimes stopping to observe, and soon walked hundreds of miles.

Along the way, in some stone crevices, he could see a touch of green, which were unknown spirit plants. Most of them were not of high grade, and occasionally there were Mysterious Grade three or four, but he didn't pick them. Since the Gu Monkey and the Burning Sun Mountain cultivators hadn't collected these spirit plants, it meant that they were not usable, or there was danger.

As he went deeper, Thunder Valley gradually became narrower. At the entrance of Thunder Valley, the two mountains were wide open, with a distance of three or four hundred feet in the middle. After traveling a thousand miles, the two mountains had squeezed together, with a distance of less than a hundred feet between them. The lightning that fell from the sky almost completely covered a section of the canyon.

Zhang Yuanjing had a cauldron-shaped magical artifact, so his head was fine, but the lightning that landed on both sides would occasionally strike at his feet. He didn't know how the Burning Sun Mountain cultivators dealt with it. Every time, he used the half of the tree branch to support the ground, standing in the air. Although this easily avoided the lightning, the tree branch became shorter with each lightning strike.

Seeing that the thunderclouds in the sky ahead were even denser, this method was obviously not sustainable. He couldn't help but think that if he had the Sky Thunder Halberd in his hand, he could completely absorb the lightning power, both accumulating the spirit treasure and eliminating danger.

As soon as he thought of this, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, that he might be able to rely on the Fiend Lightning Bamboo to deal with the lightning attacks. Although this thing was not as good as the Sky Thunder Halberd, it was originally a spirit object born in response to thunder, and it could naturally generate and accumulate lightning power.

The Sky Thunder Bamboo had been nourished by him with the power of thick earth, and had already sprouted new buds. He originally wanted to wait for the new buds to grow up before separating them. At this time, he couldn't care too much. He directly took off the new buds, planted them in a porcelain pot, and let them live and die on their own, while he threw the Fiend Lightning Bamboo into the cauldron-shaped magical artifact.

"Crack! Ba Ba Ba Ba!"

The sound of bamboo cracking and exploding was endless. The lightning power in the cauldron clashed, buzzing and ringing, as if it was about to burst out at any time.

Zhang Yuanjing's heart jumped, but seeing that the shape of the Fiend Lightning Bamboo was complete and not really cracked, he felt a little relieved.

After a few breaths, the lightning power in the cauldron began to decrease, the color of the Fiend Lightning Bamboo became deep, and its aura became more condensed.

Soon, the lightning power in the cauldron disappeared completely, leaving only a short black bamboo that seemed to have absorbed enough dew to appear fresh and full.

Zhang Yuanjing stretched out his hand and slowly held the lightning bamboo in the air in his hand, carefully observing it at close range. This bamboo was more than ten times stronger than before.

When he first obtained this section of lightning bamboo from Bao Xueyang, the lightning bamboo was already slightly dry, and the lightning power inside was not abundant. This was obviously because Bao Xueyang didn't understand the method of warming and nourishing it, and only relied on the lightning bamboo to recover on its own, so the accumulation of lightning power was quite slow, and it was not as fast as consumption.

Now, with the cauldron-shaped magical artifact intercepting lightning power, it was equivalent to providing the Fiend Lightning Bamboo with a small thunder pool for it to absorb lightning power, without having to worry about the lightning power being too strong and damaging its vitality.

In this way, when lightning struck from all around again, Zhang Yuanjing would insert the lightning bamboo into the ground to release the power of Fiend Lightning, colliding with the attacking lightning to eliminate danger. If the cauldron-shaped magical artifact above his head accumulated too much lightning power, he would throw the Fiend Lightning Bamboo into it to warm and absorb the lightning.

Traveling another thousand miles, the peaks on both sides pierced straight into the clouds, completely blocking the light above. The valley was as dark as night, only the lightning that struck down was as bright as day.

The giant rocks in the valley gradually decreased, revealing dark and hard soil. This soil was bombarded by lightning all year round, not only becoming as hard as iron, but also containing lightning power. Stepping on it, he felt a tingling sensation in the soles of his feet.

In the crevices of the stone walls on both sides, Zhang Yuanjing saw several Mysterious Grade Earth Grade Yin Lightning Fruit trees, with rather small fruits growing on them, far less than the fourth-grade fruit trees.

There were also some stone crevices with obvious traces of being stepped on and dug, which must have been left by the Burning Sun Mountain cultivators before.

He continued to move forward, the road began to slope downwards, and lightning rolled down from the stone walls on both sides from time to time. Sometimes he didn't have time to deal with it with the Fiend Lightning Bamboo, so he still avoided it with the black branch.

After traveling another twenty miles, a black pool with a radius of several hundred feet appeared in front of him. The water waves rippled, and lightning frequently fell into the pool from the sky, causing water waves like electric snakes to rise.

However, when he approached, he realized that what splashed up was not water waves at all, but extremely condensed lightning power.

This black pool was actually a terrifying thunder pool.
