Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

The previous method only targeted a single-attribute thunder sea; now the Metal and Earth dual thunder seas have appeared, their power more than doubled. Xu Zhangqing knew deeply he could no longer continue counter-restraining like this. Immediately his mind moved, and the red flag and green flag atop his head lit up simultaneously.

The red flag governs ferocity, releasing blazing flames to "Fire restricts Metal," completely incinerating the sharp power of the Metal turbid thunder.

The green flag governs stillness, guiding Wood Spirit Qi to "Wood restricts Earth," dissolving the heavy power of the Earth turbid thunder layer by layer.

The Lingxi Belt switched its Fire and Wood spirit pearls; crimson spiritual light protected the Wood Spirit Root, pale green spiritual light protected the Water Spirit Root, the dual spiritual lights intertwining to form a sturdy defense.

Immediately after, the fire wall and wood wall of the Five Elements Thunder Control Array rose simultaneously.

The fire wall's flames churned, merging the sharp power of the golden thunder sea into nothingness; those splashing golden lightning bolts struck the fire wall and instantly turned into sparks and dissipated.

The wood wall's branches and leaves flourished, like countless trees breaking through the soil, propping apart the heavy power of the Earth turbid thunder; the earth mist began to disintegrate.

It wasn't over yet; the Thunder Spirit Guidance Array operated again, taking the opportunity to guide away three-tenths of the thunder power.

Plus the Qingdi Garden's restriction weakening three-tenths, this layer of thunder sea now retained only four-tenths of its power. Falling upon the dual defense of Fire restricting Metal and Wood restricting Earth, it was like striking stone with an egg, causing no damage whatsoever.

Xu Zhangqing took a deep breath: "Earth and Metal mutually generate, their power is great; the difficulty ahead will only get higher and higher."

The Eighth Layer Azure-Green Thunder Sea, at this moment, connected seamlessly.

It was like boundless swamp miasma; the Wood turbid thunder's entangling erosive power specially restrains the Earth Spirit Root, the Water turbid thunder's extreme cold freezing specially restrains the Fire Spirit Root.

When the thunder sea fell, the temperature plummeted; even the spirit mist in the Secret Realm turned into poison mist.

The two turbid thunders intertwined; the Earth Spirit Root's stability was dissolved, the Fire Spirit Root's blazing heat was frozen; Xu Zhangqing's Dual Spirit Roots were simultaneously bound.

Xu Zhangqing put down his tea cup, treating it seriously for the first time.

The white flag atop his head lit up with cold white light; sharp power burst forth along the flag, transforming into countless qi blades fine as hair strands.

Although the thunder sea's Wood restricts Earth, he used Metal restricts Wood, dissolving it from the source.

The red flag atop his head ignited flames; this time not a violent burning, but flowing along the Fire Spirit Root, and simultaneously guiding the Thunder Spirit Pearl in the Lingxi Belt; thunder light merged into the flames, both resisting the Water turbid thunder's extreme cold and borrowing the Thunder Fire's power to melt the chill.

Subsequently, the Five Elements Thunder Control Array activated, raising a gold wall and a fire wall.

The gold wall stood on the outside, severing all the Wood turbid thunder.

The fire wall coiled around his body, isolating the Water turbid thunder's cold Qi.

The Ten Thousand Wood Barrier Array's wood vines actively contracted, not to absorb the Wood turbid thunder, but to form a vine shield, blocking all the leaked residual might.

The Ice Crystal Face Armor's spiritual light flickered, both isolating the thunder sea's howling clamor and blocking the poison mist's erosion.

Even so, Xu Zhangqing still took out a Thunder Fire Avoid Tribulation Pill and swallowed it into his abdomen; the pill's Thunder Fire power circulated through his meridians, both neutralizing the Water turbid thunder's extreme cold and unblocking the Fire Spirit Root.

At the same time he activated a Ten Thousand Trees Return to Spring Talisman, attaching it to the vine shield, not only making the wood shield even tougher but also enabling it to automatically repair.

Then he urged the Su Ge Shield, making it hover before him; the shield's vortex naturally rotated, swallowing and transforming the remaining Azure-Green turbid thunder bit by bit.

This layer of thunder sea's power was four times the first layer; even after the Qingdi Garden restriction's weakening, its power remained astonishing.

Xu Zhangqing spoke no words, adjusting his defenses on one hand and recovering his consumption on the other.

As the tribulation clouds finished brewing, the Ninth Layer Purple-Red Thunder Sea descended.

It was like an erupting volcano, momentum vast, power astonishing.

The Fire turbid thunder explosively burned and melted, specially restraining the Metal Spirit Root.

The Earth turbid thunder blocked and bound, specially restraining the Water Spirit Root.

The Metal Spirit Root fears melting, the Water Spirit Root fears blockage; dual restraint appeared again, even causing Xu Zhangqing's circulating mana to slow by half a beat.

Where the thunder sea passed, the ground melted into magma; for a time heat waves rolled.

The water vapor in the air was entirely evaporated; even the Spirit Spring dropped several feet; the Water Spirit Root was like being blocked by clods of earth, unable to circulate smoothly.

The Metal Spirit Root was under even more pressure; even the "Thunder Control Runes" on the Xuan Iron Arm Guards glowed red, as if about to melt.

Xu Zhangqing mobilized his Spirit Roots to complement each other, simultaneously activating his full set of defenses.

The green flag lit up with dense spiritual light; the Wood Spirit Root's vital power spread along the flag, transforming into layer upon layer of wood shields blocking the front.

Although Wood fears Fire, the vast amount of Wood Spirit Qi can continuously consume the flame power.

The yellow flag lit up with heavy earth-yellow spiritual light; the stabilizing power guided and diverted the thunder sea; this was not counter-restriction, but using the Earth Spirit Root's "stability" to resolve the Earth turbid thunder's "blockage."

The Five Elements Thunder Control Array's wood wall and earth wall rose simultaneously; the wood wall absorbed the magma's flame power, slowly carbonizing yet not cracking, continuously consuming the Fire turbid thunder.

The earth wall stood in front, forming multiple layers of defense, prepared for unforeseen needs.

The Thunder Spirit Guidance Array activated again; this time directly guiding away four-tenths of the thunder power.

As both Spirit Roots bore pressure simultaneously, Xu Zhangqing no longer conserved; the Juling Avoid Tribulation Wrist's gathering array operated, converging the surrounding Wood Spirit Qi, both replenishing the wood shield's consumption and forming a protective film adhering to all Magic Tools, thereby isolating the high temperature.

Just like that, both sides formed a tug-of-war; it was a matter of who couldn't endure first.

Xu Zhangqing took advantage of the interval to take out several Spirit Fruits: "Fire and Earth are dry and hot, quite suitable for roasting."

After they were cooked he ate them, both replenishing the consumed mana and recovering some stamina.

Unknown how long passed; the Purple-Red Thunder Sea finally dispersed, pressure plummeting.

However, the thunder seas came one layer after another, giving not the slightest chance to catch a breath.

The Tenth Layer Silver-White Thunder Sea fell with a piercing roaring sound.

The Metal turbid thunder "Sharpness Piercing," specially restraining the Wood Spirit Root.

The Thunder turbid thunder "Backlash Rampage," specially restraining the Thunder Spirit Root.

This is the first time the Thunder Spirit Root has appeared in the restraints, nearly causing Xu Zhangqing's mana to lose control.

When the thunder sea fell, everything was pierced full of holes.

The Thunder Spirit Root inside his body began to grow restless, as if about to break free of control.

Xu Zhangqing sat up straight, his expression calm, yet the power he mobilized was even greater.

He simultaneously activated his Earth Spirit Root and Water Spirit Root, pairing them with Spirit Talismans and Magic Treasures.

Within the Five-Colored Banner, the Yellow Flag lit up with heavy Spiritual Light, transforming into a Xuanhuang Shield.

The Golden Blades crashed into it, and although they pierced the surface layer, they were blocked and consumed layer by layer, utterly unable to touch Xu Zhangqing's Main Body.

Immediately after, the Black Flag lit up with a dim glow; the Flowing power circulated along the Flag, guiding any Thunder Power that drew near.

The Earth Spirit Pearl and Water Spirit Pearl of the Lingxi Belt activated; yellow earth Spiritual Light reinforced the Spiritual Shield, while dark blue Spiritual Light nourished the Spiritual Roots.

The Thunder Crystal Armor Set flickered, resonating with the Thunder Spirit Root locked inside his Ti Nei, slowly converting the backlashing thunder power into gentle Spiritual Energy, thereby feeding back the Thunder Spirit Root.

The Earth Wall and Water Wall of the Five Elements Thunder Control Array rose up; the Earth Wall stood on the outside, consuming the piercing force of the Metal-element Turbid Thunder, while the Water Wall coiled around his body, channeling the restless thunder power.

Xu Zhangqing's Fingertip formed a hand seal, consuming a Large Amount of magic power to drive the Thunder Spirit Guidance Array, erupting all the previously stored thunder power, condensing it into a giant Thunder Talisman suspended above his head, Ying Sheng bearing the terrifying pressure of this silver-white Thunder Sea!
