Free Web NovelChapter 625: Chapter 346: Five-Thunder Annihilation Hand Unleashes Its Power! (Part 2)
The Lifebound Demon Seed emitted a dazzling purple radiance as it flew out from his Dantian.
Then, it drew a straight line in the air before merging into the body of the Cyan Dragon.
The Lifebound Demon Seed emitted wisps of purple energy, like vines, connecting with the Essence Qi, Spirit, and mind of the Wooden Cyan Dragon.
The cultivation of the Wooden Cyan Dragon was inherently weaker than Su Que.
Su Que’s mastery of the Celestial Deformed Foot had reached the 12th Realm Unparalleled, extremely formidable.
Just a moment ago, that one kick nearly took half the life of this Cyan Dragon.
The Cyan Dragon was on its last breath, naturally unable to resist the connection between the Lifebound Demon Seed and its Essence Qi, Spirit, and mind.
Su Que used Telepathy and obtained the memories of the Wooden Cyan Dragon.
Shortly, the Lifebound Demon Seed connected with the Essence Qi, Spirit, and mind of the Wooden Cyan Dragon.
Su Que then operated the Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique, drawing out the Lifebound Demon Seed.
The Lifebound Demon Seed emerged carrying the Essence Qi, Spirit, and mind of the Cyan Dragon.
The dragon scales on the Cyan Dragon, which emitted cyan light, immediately dimmed.
Within every demon beast, there is a Demon Core.
However, because of Su Que’s Lifebound Demon Seed, it can extract the Essence Qi, Spirit, and mind of a cultivator.
It converted the Demon Core of this Cyan Dragon into energy, also extracting it.
Su Que retrieved the Lifebound Demon Seed back into his Dantian.
He then operated the Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique, integrating the Essence Qi, Spirit, and mind from the Lifebound Demon Seed into his own body.
A feeling of satisfaction surged in his heart.
Soon, the feeling of satisfaction dissipated.
Su Que’s heart stirred, and he summoned his Attributes.
Remaining lifespan: 123112
His lifespan increased by over two thousand years.
For a Divine Beast with the cultivation of the Merging Realm, extending his lifespan by over two thousand years was quite rare.
On one hand, perhaps because it was a Dragon, the life level of a Dragon is remarkable.
On the other hand, perhaps because this was a Wood Element Dragon, wood represents vitality, which can extend life.
However, Su Que felt that absorbing the Essence Qi, Spirit, and mind of a beast resulted in a relatively lesser increase in spiritual power compared to physical strength.
Su Que pondered while releasing a strand of Myriad Poison True Qi, obliterating the remnants of the dragon entirely.
The flesh and some parts of the beast are considered treasures to many cultivators.
However, the Essence Qi, Spirit, and mind of this dragon were completely absorbed by him.
The essence of the flesh and other substances was gone.
After retrieving the Myriad Poison True Qi, Su Que kicked off with his foot, soaring into the sky.
Though it might be faster to fly across the ground, it would leave many traces.
Flying in the sky instead wouldn’t leave traces; now he was returning to the Snow Mountain and didn’t want to give others a trail to follow.
...
In the cave of the Snow Mountain, there were about twenty cultivators lying in wait.
Although the legends of the Forbidden Snow Mountain and the Demon were widely spread in the surrounding hundreds of miles around the Snow Mountain.
Cultivators also knew the dangers of this place.
Since several waves of cultivators exploring this place mysteriously disappeared, there had been a long period when no one dared to come.
However, there were always some cultivators willing to take risks.
Wang Yan was among them.
He had cultivated for over nine thousand years, and his cultivation was at the eighteenth layer of the Merging Realm.
The lifespan of someone at the peak of the Nineteen Layers of Merging Realm is generally just over ten thousand years.
In other words, if he doesn’t break through the Merging Realm, he fears he’d soon reach the end of his lifespan.
Though he had several hundred years left until his ten-thousand-year limit.
For cultivators in the Upper Realm, hundreds of years are just a blink of an eye.
He had sequestered himself in meditation for five hundred years but could not break through even the eighteenth layer of the Merging Realm, causing him great anxiety.
Upon emerging from seclusion, he heard news of the Forbidden Snow Mountain.
He decided to explore here, hoping to find opportunities.
At that time, when he came to explore, Su Que happened to be out.
Thus, upon entering the cave and finding it empty, he had a thought.
He wished to ambush in this place, and once that formidable demon returned, he would strike.
In order to acquire that demon’s storage bag.
Compared to this Treasure Mountain composed of Profound Evil Ice Rock, he desired Su Que’s storage bag more. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Even though if this Snow Mountain were sold as Profound Evil Ice Rock, it could exchange for several Celestial Medicines.
However, truly precious Celestial Medicines that could help him break through his lifespan often do not appear in the market.
If any cultivator had such Celestial Medicine, they would surely consume it themselves.
Wang Yan heard the legends of the Snow Mountain Demon and felt that with the demon’s strength, it was highly likely that his storage bag contained precious Celestial Medicines.
Wang Yan knew the demon was powerful, and realized that relying solely on himself would certainly be insufficient to kill the demon.
He thus went to several Immortal Cities in the Unclaimed Land and gathered about twenty cultivators.
He was a cultivator skilled in the Path of Array.
After summoning about twenty cultivators, he began to set up an array in the cave that could conceal the aura.
Alongside the twenty cultivators, they quietly awaited the return of the demon.
Once the demon returned, they would immediately strike, delivering a fatal blow to the demon.
Wang Yan still harbored some thoughts.
The array he arranged in the cave was not only for concealing aura but also a hidden killing array.
He intended to claim the demon’s storage bag for himself.
Moreover, if there were any precious celestial medicines in that storage bag, other cultivators might compete with him.
Thus, he prepared this killing array, intending to use it to eliminate the other cultivators after killing the demon.
...
Su Que, upon seeing the snow mountain, released his spiritual power to spread towards it.
In an instant, he discovered the group of cultivators lying in wait for him.
Although Wang Yan’s array mastery was noteworthy, and the array indeed had the power to conceal aura.
Unfortunately, his strength was far inferior to Su Que’s.
This array was unable to block Su Que’s spirit.
...
Just as Su Que approached closer to the snow mountain, within the cave, Wang Yan crouched in the array, clenching a bronze short sword engraved with complex patterns, transmitting to everyone:
"That person is coming!"
Among the group of about twenty, he was the one with the highest cultivation.
Thus, he was the first to sense Su Que’s arrival.
He sensed that Su Que possessed the peak of the Nineteenth-Layer of the Realm of Merging strength.
’Unexpectedly, peak of the Nineteenth-Layer of the Realm of Merging, no wonder so many cultivators have previously been trapped here!’
Wang Yan tightened his grip on the bronze short sword, infusing mana into the sword, the veins on the sword emitting a faint glow.
He felt both nervous and fortunate.
Nervous because it was his first time facing a cultivator at the peak of the Merging Realm.
Fortunate because he knew the path of array and employed ambush tactics to confront this person.
Soon enough, they would surprise him, and even if this person’s cultivation was high, he would be caught off guard.
The other cultivators, upon hearing Wang Yan’s words, began to prepare.
Some cultivators took out their magical artifacts, some retrieved their weapons, and some pinched spells, channeling mana to their fingertips, readying themselves.
Tap!
Su Que landed on the platform in front of the cave entrance.
The cultivators inside the cave, hearing the sound, held their breaths involuntarily.
Although they were aware that they were within an array concealing aura and had no need to hold their breath.
But holding their breath before a battle was a habit they had since they began cultivation.
In subsequent years, it proved to be unchangeable.
Su Que seemed to be oblivious, stepping towards the cave’s interior.
"Attack!"
Wang Yan estimated that if Su Que took a few more steps, he would be able to sense their presence.
He immediately transmitted to the other cultivators.
Upon hearing Wang Yan’s transmission, the other cultivators struck simultaneously!
Wang Yan cast his bronze short sword forward.
The bronze short sword, upon leaving his hand, elongated immediately, transforming into a cyan sword shadow, brimming with killing intent, aiming at Su Que!
Suddenly, various magical artifacts and spells lit up with colorful mana glow, illuminating the cave immediately.
Converging into a torrent, it attacked Su Que.
’Five Thunders Annihilation Hand!’
Su Que merely spread the five fingers of his right hand wide, pressing forward.
A crackling sound arose, a massive rush of lightning poured out from his right hand.
Like a great net, it flew towards the incoming magical artifacts and spells.
In the next moment, the magical artifacts paused in mid-air, as if insects caught in a spider’s web, ensnared by Su Que’s lightning net.
While the spells were dissipated by the lightning on Su Que’s net.
Wang Yan, among others, was stunned by this scene.
The glow of the lightning reflecting on their terrified faces.
The few flesh body dao cultivators rushing towards Su Que, upon witnessing this scene, all hastily paused their steps and retreated.
But in the next moment, Su Que propelled True Qi.
The lightning on his right hand surged even more fiercely.
The entire lightning net emitted crackling sounds, surging towards Wang Yan and the others.
Crackling!
The cave suddenly brightened!
Several bolts of lightning struck Wang Yan and the others.
The twenty cultivators were instantly charred black.
Their bodies smoked as they fell to the ground.
