Chapter 154: Harmonious and Loving Cultivation World
Qian Chen took advantage of the time before the Tao family arrived to test the power of the endless Yuan Magnet thunder light in the Yuan Magnet Earth Aperture. Now, walking out from the depths of the thunder light, he pulled hundreds of divine thunders. The thumb-thick thunder light struck the Heaven-Luo San, and the clear light was vigorous and did not shake in the slightest. The thunder light flickered, only able to be extinguished on it.
But no one present dared to underestimate that thunder.
These blue-purple thunderbolts each had the power of a cultivator at the Penetrating Law stage who had exhausted all their strength to summon heavenly thunder. On weekdays, the Daoist priests in the Daoist academy would eliminate demons and demons. If they could summon such a bolt of lightning, those demons and demons would basically have no luck!
Yan Yan Shixiong Gu from the Shenxiao Sect looked at the Heaven-Luo San that remained motionless in the ten thousand thunder lights, and his expression gradually became solemn.
He originally had no intention of getting involved in the affairs of these aristocratic families in the Central Lands. The Shenxiao Sect was mainly based on master-disciple inheritance. Although the Gu family he came from was also a cultivation family in the Shenxiao Sect, it was not big or small. But the master he worshipped was an elder with a different surname, and his daily practice was no different from other disciples.
As such, he had no self-awareness of an aristocratic family.
It was even more impossible for him to offend a fellow Daoist who was also a true disciple of the Daoist sect for the sake of the Tao Young Master who had entrusted him with a few words.
"Known as the number one defense in the world. The strongest defense among the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gangs—the Dry Sima Sima Qian Tian Yi Qi Qi Qing Gang!"
Yan Yan Shixiong Gu gasped secretly. He calculated the strongest thunder method he had mastered. Among the Shenxiao Thirty-Six Thunders, he had only refined the "Chua Chu Chu Huo Lei" and "Man Thunder," which already made him a true disciple.
But Yan Yan Shixiong Gu had no confidence in shaking this Dry Sima Sima Qian Tian Yi Qi Qi Qing Gang with either of these two thunder methods.
Both thunder methods were only lower-class among the Shenxiao Thirty-Six Thunder Methods, while the Dry Sima Sima Qian Tian Yi Qi Qi Qing Gang was the supreme grade among the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gangs, known as the Nine Heavens.
Let alone that he hadn't formed a core yet, even if a senior brother who had formed a Supreme Core and cultivated a higher-level thunder method came, he might not be able to break this magic treasure!
The Shenxiao Thirty-Six Thunder Methods were all thunder-method divine abilities.
Among them were the twelve types of Shenxiao Heavenly Mansion Thunders: first, Jade Pivot Thunder; second, Shenxiao Thunder; third, Great Cave Thunder; fourth, Immortal Capital Thunder; fifth, North Pole Thunder; sixth, Taiyi Thunder; seventh, Purple Mansion Thunder; eighth, Jade Morning Thunder; ninth, Great Heaven Thunder; tenth, Great Ultimate Thunder; eleventh, Heavenly Mansion Thunder; twelfth, Purple Heaven Thunder. All were thunder methods that could only be fully displayed by Primordial Spirit True Persons, known as the Heavenly Mansion True Transmission.
There were also twelve types of Divine Thunder Methods: Three Realms Divine Thunder, Great Might Divine Thunder, Great Man Divine Thunder, Great Brahma Divine Thunder, Dry Origin Divine Thunder, Five Elements Divine Thunder, Eight Trigrams Divine Thunder, Immortal-Slashing Divine Thunder, Primordial Divine Thunder, Unified Divine Thunder, Dragon Heaven Divine Thunder, and Two-Yi Divine Thunder.
Cultivating one would give one the hope of forming a First-Rank Core.
If one formed a core with this, one would be invincible among Core Formation cultivators, and it would be enough to show off one's power below the Primordial Spirit.
The lowest were the twelve Heavenly Thunder Methods. The Chua Chu Chu Huo Lei and Man Thunder cultivated by Yan Yan Shixiong Gu were both among them.
Shenxiao Sect disciples had to cultivate a thunder method into a divine ability before they could be promoted to true disciples.
This time, Brother Gu heard the news of the Yuan Magnetic Earth Aperture and hurried over, hoping to utilize this rare Yuan Magnetic True Malevolent Qi to cultivate a remnant thunder method that is not among the Thirty-Six Thunder Methods of the Shenxiao Sect but possesses unique mysteries—the Two Forms Yuan Magnetic Divine Thunder.
The complete Two-Liang Liang Yi Yuan Ci Divine Thunder was a thunder method that could rival the Heavenly Mansion True Transmission.
But the Shenxiao Sect only had the inheritance of the Yin-level Yuan Magnet Divine Thunder. Yan Yan Shixiong Gu also wanted to use the inheritance of the Two-Yi Divine Thunder to complete it, and through this, cultivate the Two-Liang Liang Yi Yuan Ci Thunder Core. It was said that there was hope for a First-Rank Core, but that would require completing the complete thunder method of the Two-Liang Liang Yi Yuan Ci Divine Thunder.
If the inheritance was incomplete, one could only cultivate a Second-Rank Extreme Yin Yuan Magnet Thunder Core, and one would have to experience nine Yang Thunder tribulations in the future to have hope of proving the Primordial Spirit. If the foundation was even worse, and one only cultivated the Yin Magnetic Thunder Core, there was almost no hope of proving the Primordial Spirit.
But if, during the condensation of malevolent qi and refining of gang qi, one condenses the Qian Sima Sima Qian Tian Yi Qi Qi Qing Gang and then seeks a type of malevolent qi that harmonizes with it, such as the Five Directions True Malevolent Qi, one can refine the Gang-Malevolent Qi known as the "Membrane of Heaven and Earth," which has almost a ninety-nine percent chance of achieving a First Rank Core Formation. Moreover, this type of method can almost harmonize with any Daoist inheritance... Combined with the Shenxiao Sect's thunder method, one could cultivate the Qiankun Heavenly Capital Lei Dan or the Qiankun Taiyi Lei Dan.
Therefore, when Yan Yan Shixiong Gu saw that the clear light hanging from the Heaven-Luo San held by Qian Chen was the Dry Sima Sima Qian Tian Yi Qi Qi Qing Gang, he gave up the idea of intervening in this matter and even wanted to use Qian Chen's umbrella to go deeper into the Yuan Magnet Earth Aperture to practice magic.
In Yan Yan Shixiong Gu's eyes, Qian Chen holding the umbrella was like wearing a First-Rank Primordial Elixir on his head. And in Tao Kan's eyes, Qian Chen coming from the Yuan Magnet Earth Aperture was also mysterious and unpredictable, making people fearful.
Only the Tao family First Elder had a pill qi rising behind him, thick and heavy. The earth-yellow mysterious light condensed into a giant hand, which was surprisingly similar to the Innate One Qi Great Capture that Qian Chen had practiced but had been shelved because he hadn't found suitable malevolent qi to condense.
That giant hand was majestic, and with a stretch of five fingers, it was about the size of a mu, covering Qian Chen. The dense thunder was stimulated by the pill qi and intertwined. The blue-purple thunder light suddenly became dense, enveloping the giant hand. Countless thunder lights flickered on it, shaking the earth-yellow mysterious light. If it weren't for the Tao family First Elder forming a Third-Rank Core and his magic power being condensed, he would have been defeated by this thunder light.
The First Elder's pupils shrank slightly, knowing it was not good. The power of this lightning far exceeded his expectations. And what kind of power should the spirit light of the magic treasure that protected Qian Chen and remained motionless in this countless thunder be?
But Qian Chen didn't give him time to regret.
This Yuan Magnet True Malevolence essence was far more important than the messy matters of the Tao and Xin families in Qian Chen's eyes. He just wanted to refine pills well, and everything during this period was a forced move. Just as Qian Chen thought before, the aristocratic families in the Central Lands held the "reason," while Qian Chen followed another set of "reason."
When the two kinds of "reason" couldn't be talked about together, there was only—whoever has the bigger fist is the reason.
Qian Chen pressed his right hand on the handle of the Heaven-Luo San, and the seven Profound Heaven Star Stones emitted a bit of brilliance.
Only a light sound of "Clang" was heard, like a lover's whisper. Under the endless thunder light, the most dazzling point of electric light flickered, and the sword light was like a long rainbow startling the heavens, bursting out from Qian Chen's palm. The cold sword light shot out.
Qian Chen already had a long sword in his hand, two fingers wide, with a faint red light flowing on the sword body.
It was "Sentient."
This person was not worthy of him using his natal flying sword.
Xin Shisan Niang exclaimed. It wasn't that Qian Chen's sword light wasn't sharp, but that this sound of gold and iron could not be used in the Yuan Magnet Thunder Layer with magic treasures made of gold and iron. Qian Chen was perhaps handy with the sword light, but this time it was extremely unwise.
The surrounding countless thunders were triggered by this sword, and the Yuan Magnet malevolent qi released fine electric rays, instantly silver snakes and golden snakes of thunder light ran around, converging toward Qian Chen's sword, hitting the spiritual light hanging down from the Heaven-Luo San, and then turning into fine thunder light.
Qian Chen let go of his left hand, abandoned the Heaven-Luo San, stepped out of that spiritual light, and stepped into the thunder that made people's souls shake.
The First Elder was stunned, not knowing what the situation was? Abandoning the protective magic treasure, using his flesh body to top the thunder light, and stepping into the Yuan Magnet True Malevolence... Isn't this looking for death?
Could it be that this person was blinded by the tribulation, or did he want to use his hand to "corpse-release"?
"Just want to try the sword method and thunder method I have been refining for this period of time..." Qian Chen thought lightly. He bathed in the thunder light, but the power of those thunder rays was guided by the Five-Qi Lei Guang in his chest, intertwined on the "Sentient" sword. Based on the various sword methods recorded in the "Hunyuan Sword Scripture," he integrated the thunder method he had bitter-cultivated, using the sword to guide the thunder light, and the thunder to assist the sword's momentum.
The sword light rose like a startled swan, instantly dimming this countless thunder light.
In that dazzling thunder light, this sword light took away all the essence of the thunder light, pierced through the Yuan Magnet True Malevolence, and when it broke through the air, it was heart-stirring. The First Elder facing this sword couldn't describe one ten-thousandth of its charm.
He only saw that the giant hand condensed from earth-yellow mysterious light was instantly slashed open.
The sword light came to the Tao family First Elder's eyebrows. Without touching any of his protective magic power, it lightly plucked off one of his eyebrows. Then the sword light passed over the First Elder. Tao Kan's expression was solemn, and he held a cup of condensed clear light tightly in his hand, in which there seemed to be the sound of a tsunami. But Qian Chen's sword light only swept past him. The Tao family's two principals didn't move, and how could a group of cultivators block Qian Chen even half a bit? The sword light slashed through all the obstacles of everyone in an instant and came to Tao Third Young Master.
Yan Yan Shixiong Gu from the Shenxiao Sect was slightly conflicted, not knowing whether he should make a move.
If he didn't make a move, letting Tao Third Young Master be killed in front of him seemed a bit unreasonable. But if he made a move? He didn't seem to be an opponent either.
Tao Third Young Master saw the sword light come to his face and couldn't maintain it anymore. He knew Qian Chen's fierce reputation! His eyes swept over his father, whose face was gloomy and ugly, and he thought in despair: "If I had known it was this fierce person, why did I come here? He wants to kill me, and my father really can't stop him... Why say such big words!"
He exclaimed in his mouth: "Brother Qian!"
But the scene of the sword light falling and his neck cooling didn't happen.
His right hand tightened, but it was Qian Chen who grabbed his arm. Qian Chen revealed a kind smile and said: "Brother Tao, why did you come so late? I have been waiting for a long time!"
Qian Chen killed through the Tao family with one sword, pulled Tao Third Young Master back, and laughed as he introduced him to Xin Shisan Niang: "Previously, it was Tao Young Master who invited me to explore the secret realm. I didn't agree at the time, but I have always remembered it. Later, by chance, Lady Xin, you came to visit because of the two lost monsters and invited me to explore the secret realm."
"At that time, I said: I should pull Brother Tao along."
"Now it is a coincidence that we bumped into each other. We should explore this Yuan Magnet Earth Aperture together to fulfill this opportunity."
Qian Chen returned to the Heaven-Luo San as if no one was around, and said to Xin Shisan Niang and Tao Young Master on his left and right: "What do you say?"
How could Xin Shisan Niang say anything else? She could only force a smile: "Indeed."
Tao Young Master had been scared out of his wits before, and now that he had escaped with his life, he was already rejoicing. He hurriedly said: "Brother Qian is right, truly a man of faith!"
Yan Yan Shixiong Gu saw the beginning of swords drawn and bows bent, but it developed into this step, and he was also confused. But seeing that Tao Young Master seemed to know Qian Chen and had an appointment in advance, he was relieved in his heart and didn't need to be conflicted. Tao Kan's face couldn't see joy or anger, and he only nodded slightly to Tao Third Young Master: "Since you young people have an appointment, I, as an elder, am also happy to see it happen!"
"You go! Let the young people gain experience, we have people to guard!"
Tao Third Young Master felt despair in his heart: "I was pulled to be a hostage, and my father has given up on me. What should I do?" He didn't even dare to reveal a look of "life is loveless" on his face, fearing that if this fierce person beside him saw it, he would just finish him off.
This turn of events came too fast, and the Tao family was a bit confused.
They only knew that their young master really knew how to play, even having such friends who loved to invite people with swords.
The Tao family First Elder caught his own eyebrow, and nine-tenths of his spirit was gone. Looking at Qian Chen, he didn't even dare to get angry, and could only suppress his anger: "Old Three, what is going on with you? Why are you hanging there?"
Qian Chen laughed: "Third Elder borrowed a magic treasure from me, hanging there to temper his primordial elixir and purify his magic power."
Tao Third Elder, who was tied to the top of the cave, said muffledly: "Boss, I had nothing to do, and seeing that this little Daoist friend had a magic treasure that was very suitable for me to temper my primordial elixir, I borrowed it! Now I am guiding the thunder to temper my body! No need to worry..." As he said this, he shook his hair, raised his head, and revealed an expression of "everything is under my control."
The Tao family disciples below were discussing, all discussing Tao Third Elder's practice, which was truly a hardship that people couldn't endure.
Truly worthy of being a Core Formation elder.
A few others vaguely mentioned Tao Third Elder's unknown hobbies.
The atmosphere was harmonious and warm, and the previous tension was swept away. The Tao family looked at Qian Chen and the others, as if it were a normal exploration of the secret realm by the Xin and Tao families. The previous misunderstandings were naturally not mentioned. Qian Chen saw that everyone was so sensible, so he put away the Ice Soul Divine Thunder sword light that was brewing on the sword and ready to "persuade" everyone.
Yan Yan Shixiong Gu hurried up and said: "Can you take me along, fellow Daoists?"
Qian Chen asked: "Are you a Daoist friend from the Shenxiao Sect?" Hearing Yan Yan Shixiong Gu's answer, his smile became even brighter. Pulling another Shenxiao Sect true disciple, this entry into the Yuan Magnet Earth Aperture would definitely be incomparably "peaceful," and no one would ever destroy the Yuan Magnet essence he was thinking about again.
Sure enough... this world is still reasonable.
How could anyone refuse such a win-win thing?
The Xin and Tao families were at odds, and there were some misunderstandings with the Tao family before, but under Qian Chen's efforts, weren't these all solved?
Holding the Heaven-Luo San, Qian Chen led everyone to slowly go deep into the Yuan Magnet Earth Aperture, leaving the crowd behind. Tao Young Master secretly looked back, his eyes very desperate, but seeing his father's gloomy and ugly expression, completely without the intention of stopping this fierce person from taking him away, he could only follow step by step and enter the Yuan Magnet Earth Malevolence in sorrow.
The Xin family two women were entangled, always feeling that something was wrong. Only Yan Yan Shixiong Gu from the Shenxiao Sect was full of interest and took the initiative to come in. ===== CHAPTER 155 =====
With such a mutually beneficial matter, how could anyone refuse?
The Xin and Tao families are at odds, and there were some misunderstandings with the Tao family previously, but under Qian Chen's efforts, haven't these all been resolved?
Bearing the Heavenly Luo San, Qian Chen led the group to slowly penetrate deep into the Yuan Magnetic Earth Aperture, leaving the others behind. Young Master Tao secretly looked back, his eyes full of despair, but seeing his father's expression still in that uncertain state, with no intention of stopping this fierce man from kidnapping him, he could only follow step by step, entering the Yuan Magnetic Earth Malevolent Qi with a desolate heart.
The two women of the Xin family were conflicted, always feeling that something was wrong; only Brother Gu of the Shenxiao Sect was full of enthusiasm and took the initiative to come in.
