Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 412: Chapter 21: Chaotic Battle, Zhou Xun’s True Strength!

”Pssh!”

Without hesitation, Zhou Xun’s Extreme Blade pierced through Elder Zhao’s forehead and emerged from the back of his head.

At this moment, Elder Zhao also came to his senses.

The powerful vitality of Middle-Stage Core Formation prevented him from dying instantly,

As he sensed his life rapidly fading, a trace of unwillingness appeared in his eyes.

With extraordinary talent and a Thunder Attribute Spiritual Root of 71 points, his future promised great prospects. Although he was only a little over three hundred years old, he had already reached the Peak of Middle-Stage Core Formation Cultivation,

and had a fairly high probability of advancing to Nascent Soul.

Yet today, he was doomed to fall here; such unwillingness!

His eyes widened in disbelief, then blackness swallowed his vision, as his head tilted to the side, never to make a sound again.

Witnessing this scene, Madam Yao was rendered speechless.

The previously overpowering, arrogant Elder Zhao had so simply met his end.

This filled her heart with fear, and she cast a gaze full of terror towards Zhou Xun.

Even Elder Zhao had died so easily.

If Zhou Xun intended to harm her, she had no means of escaping.

While she was caught in a storm of uncertainty and dread, nearby Yuan Mountain abruptly roared in fury, then suddenly fell silent, making no sound thereafter.

Yuan Mountain had actually fallen!

Even Zhou Xun wore a face of surprise; among the four, Yuan Mountain’s cultivation was undoubtedly among the top, only a step away from Late-Stage.

Yet he fell so effortlessly at the hands of Master Yuanfeng.

Had Zhou Xun not seized the opportunity to assassinate Elder Zhao, they would have lost the qualification to confront their foes.

It turned out that while Master Yuanfeng temporarily suppressed the burly man surnamed Hu, he secretly took out a one-time Magical Treasure, ”God-Slaying Nail.”

Under the power of this treasure, Yuan Mountain’s Divine Sense turned white, causing him to lose consciousness briefly.

Taking advantage of this situation, Master Yuanfeng closed in swiftly, delivering a blow that killed Yuan Mountain.

Only then did he realize that his junior brother, Elder Zhao, had also been assassinated, causing him to be enraged.

”You killed our Dao Yu Sect cultivators; each of you will accompany him in death!”

With that, he pointed his finger, and a Spirit Light shot out, transforming into a ten-foot-long sword aura that struck the Array below.

Deprived of Yuan Mountain’s control, the Array lost much of its power.

Master Yuanfeng casually unleashed a Sword Qi, breaking the Array.

Within the Array, the originally attacking four Demon Spirits against the Thunder Flood Dragon vanished instantly at the moment of the Array’s destruction.

Without the entanglement of Demon Spirits, the Thunder Flood Dragon’s form surged, a flash of red light on its body instantly shattering Zhou Xun’s Thunderous Chain.

The Thunder Flood Dragon was free!

...

Seeing this scene, Madam Yao was utterly terrified.

She had presumed that among their collaborators, if she wasn’t the strongest, she was certainly the second.

As it turns out, she was the weakest!

Among the people before her, none were to be trifled with, and she couldn’t help but regret embarking on this mission to eliminate the flood dragon.

After her face changed several times, she finally gritted her teeth, her mana surging underneath her feet, transforming into a ray of white light that sped away into the distance.

She fled!

Having just gathered the spoils of war, Zhou Xun saw this scene and couldn’t help but sigh.

He had thought this treasure hunt would be flawlessly smooth, but it turned out otherwise.

Four cultivators, one had fallen, and one had escaped.

Now only he and the burly man surnamed Hu remained, and they still had to face the rampaging Thunder Flood Dragon and Master Yuanfeng, who had killed Yuan Mountain with a single strike.

Their current predicament was not even as good as it had been at the start.

Just then, another scream of agony echoed from afar; the Thunder Flood Dragon, after escaping, immediately transformed into lightning and targeted the flying Demon Zombie belonging to the burly man surnamed Hu.

The Thunder Attribute is inherently effective against zombies, much less when the Thunder Flood Dragon is in a berserk state, with its power exceeding its usual strength.

With a Tier position already one level higher, it bit down on the flying Demon Zombie, tearing off its wings.

Countless Thunder Lights then enveloped the flying Demon Zombie.

Cries of agony emitted one after another from the Demon Zombie, finally ceasing altogether.

All this occurred in an instant, and Zhou Xun’s side lost another crucial combat force!

The flying Demon Zombie was the External Incarnation of the burly man surnamed Hu, manipulated by his Divine Sense and Heart Spirit.

Its sudden demise rendered his mind blank and his Divine Sense stagnant, leaving him momentarily defenseless!

”Boom!”

Master Yuanfeng’s Nine Dragon Seal, jade-green in color, struck the burly man’s chest, slamming him heavily into the ground.

As a Late-Stage cultivator, the might of this strike was imaginable.

Had it not been for his fierce physique as a Body Cultivator, as robust as a typical Tier Three Middle-Grade Great Demon, he would have perished.

Nonetheless, he suffered severe injuries!

Subsequently, Master Yuanfeng again closed in swiftly, engaging in battle with the burly man.

...

Having destroyed the flying Demon Zombie, the Thunder Flood Dragon then turned its gaze toward Zhou Xun.

Moments ago, it recalled very clearly that Zhou Xun’s control of the Thunderous Chain had confined it temporarily, leading to Yuan Mountain’s use of the Jade Talisman to severely injure it thereafter.

It could be said that without Zhou Xun, it wouldn’t have ended up in such a pitiful state.

The Thunder Flood Dragon’s eyes gleamed with ferocity, its large mouth opening to emit a powerful male voice:

”You are also a Thunder Cultivator; today I’ll let you taste what true Thunder Skill is!”

With those words, a flash of light enveloped the Thunder Flood Dragon, and its massive form hurled toward Zhou Xun,

At the same time, dozens of Thunder Lights manifested above Zhou Xun’s head, thumb-thick bolts of lightning cascading from the sky, illuminating his surroundings brightly.

”Boom!”

Upon observing this, Zhou Xun neither dodged nor avoided, opening his mouth.

A square Thunder Pool flew out, expanding to over ten feet, positioned above his head.

Dozens of lightning bolts struck the Thunder Pool in succession, then oddly vanished within, wholly engulfed by the Thunder Pool.

For the Thunder Pool, this pure Thunder Power instead served as a supplement.

”Thunder Pool, you actually possess such a treasure!”

The Thunder Flood Dragon seemed to recognize the origin of Zhou Xun’s Lifebound Magical Treasure, its tone filled with delight and greed.

”This item, the flood dragon fancies!”

Immediately, the Thunder Flood Dragon’s tail whipped, striking heavily at Zhou Xun.

Naturally, Zhou Xun wouldn’t take it head-on, his spell changing.

The twenty-four Thunder Seeds all transformed into shields, stationed around him.

”Bang bang!”

The sound of shattering was continuous; each Thunder Shield was shattered by the dragon’s tail, ultimately halted after only three remained.

”Demonic scoundrel, where do you think you’re going!”

At that moment, Zhou Xun heard Master Yuanfeng’s angry shout,

Due to the destruction of his External Incarnation, the burly man surnamed Hu suffered damage to his Divine Sense and Heart Spirit, followed by being directly struck by the Nine Dragon Seal, sustaining serious injuries.

During his magical combat with Master Yuanfeng, he suffered several more attacks, giving rise to the thought of escape, and thus his spell changed, transforming into a blood light, darting away,

It was the Demonic Secret Technique—Blood Escape!

Exploiting his weakened state to take his life, Master Yuanfeng naturally wouldn’t let him escape easily, so he pursued him.

In no time, only Zhou Xun and the Thunder Flood Dragon were left in the field.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun’s mind stirred,

He slapped his right and left hands onto the Blood Demon Bag and Spirit Beast Bag on his waist respectively.
