Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Once the large cauldron was filled with lightning power, the approaching figures were very close.

Zhang Yuanjing didn't hesitate any longer and stepped onto the edge of the lightning pool. Infinite lightning power pressed down, a unique invasion of spiritual energy that triggered a violent reaction.

He quickly planted the Thunder Evil Bamboo, unleashing a tide of lightning power that surged in all directions.

The layers of lightning power in the lightning pool, when struck by the Thunder Evil power, immediately eased. Although there were conflicts, they were far less turbulent than at the beginning. This was because the lightning pool regarded the Thunder Evil Bamboo as part of itself, no longer concentrating its power on it, and returned to the previous chaotic impact.

However, this was only from the lightning pool's perspective. The thunderclouds in the sky were still fixed on Zhang Yuanjing, and lightning would strike every few breaths. At this time, he naturally couldn't move around to avoid lightning strikes as he could outside the lightning pool. He still held the large cauldron above his head to resist the lightning strikes, while simultaneously using the 'Point and Guide' technique to draw lightning power from the thunder into the Thunder Evil Bamboo to replenish its consumption.

At first, he was a bit clumsy, but after several attempts, he became extremely skilled. With every five magic power vortexes, he could draw out about three lightning strikes. Although this was still not enough to offset the Thunder Evil Bamboo's consumption, it could offset part of it.

By the time he had traveled a hundred zhang, he could hit the mark every five times. In this way, the Thunder Evil Bamboo's lightning power replenishment greatly increased, almost matching its consumption.

Zhang Yuanjing's heart was also greatly relieved, and he used the 'Point and Guide' technique more steadily, gradually gaining experience in controlling lightning power.

Halfway there, his divine soul suddenly trembled, and he felt his aura being locked onto by some high-level existence.

He turned his head to look at the core of the lightning pool. Near there, there was a hazy but exceptionally powerful aura undergoing some kind of evolution. The contained Dao rhythm was profound and obscure, spreading in all directions through the chaotic power of the lightning pool.

"Zhang San, is that high-level spiritual object near the center of the lightning pool?" Zhang Yuanjing sent a divine thought to the Yang Refining Umbrella in his storage bracelet.

Zhang San answered in a trembling voice, "Replying to Master, it's, it's right there."

Sure enough, that spiritual object had chosen a place where danger and opportunity coexisted. There, it could absorb the purest lightning power, and the dense lightning power, especially the essence of lightning power deposited in the lightning pool, was a natural barrier that could protect its safety. Not to mention Nascent Soul cultivators, even Transformation God cultivators would not dare to approach easily.

However, if it was slightly careless itself, or if the cultivators who came to pick it were not well prepared, it could trigger violent lightning, destroying everything in an instant.

Zhang Yuanjing was barely able to protect himself in this lightning pool, so he naturally didn't dare to provoke this powerful spiritual plant born from lightning. He slightly adjusted his route, moving a few zhang closer to the stone wall before continuing forward.

That spiritual plant already had some intelligence and understood his actions, quickly shifting its attention away from him.

Zhang Yuanjing secretly praised it. No wonder this spiritual plant had the potential to become earth-grade. Just this intelligence alone was extraordinary. Those two Nascent Soul True Men must not have entered the lightning pool to observe closely, otherwise they would never have temporarily abandoned it to look elsewhere.

Half an hour later, Zhang Yuanjing finally passed through the edge of the lightning pool and reached the opposite bank. This was also an area that had been tilted by lightning power for a long time, but near the lightning pool, there was a canyon where the frequency of lightning strikes was slightly lower. Zhang Yuanjing temporarily stood here, relying on Zhang San to sense the situation on the opposite side of the lightning pool.

Of course, there was also an entrance on the north side of the canyon, and it was hard to say that there wouldn't be great demons or Nascent Soul cultivators entering the valley from there. However, he still couldn't let go of that high-level spiritual object. Even if he couldn't snatch it, he wanted to see how this object would ultimately end up.

Moreover, he was also taking a gamble, that the north side of the Thunder Valley might have some dangers, so whether it was a transformed great demon or a Nascent Soul cultivator, they all chose to enter from the south side. At least, so far, there were no other demons or cultivators besides him in the north side of the Thunder Valley. Judging from the thunderclouds above the canyon, it didn't seem like anyone or any demon was coming in.

Half an hour later, thunder rumbled on the opposite side, obviously because the demons had reached the lightning pool.

The thought transmitted by Zhang San also confirmed this point: the previous two transformed great demons, Gu Hou and Yu Hu, were both on the opposite side. In addition, there were seventeen demon core realm demons.

Zhang Yuanjing wanted to see how these demons intended to take away the spiritual object in the lightning pool.

However, what he didn't expect was that the demons on the opposite side actually threw many unknown objects into the lightning pool, causing the entire lightning pool to shake. Violent lightning power shot out in all directions, scaring him into retreating quickly.

Although the two demon kings were strong, they didn't dare to compete with such lightning power, and they also retreated together.

"Zhang San, how is that spiritual object?"

"Replying to Master, it's still fine. However, the power in the entire lightning pool is chaotic, and its breakthrough has been interrupted."

Zhang Yuanjing was stunned, and then thought of something, and couldn't help but sigh with regret. In this cultivation world, the struggle between cultivators will also affect the competition of spiritual objects.

The change in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which triggers the change of spiritual objects, is not without limit, especially the birth of earth-grade spiritual objects, at most one or two. If the spiritual object in this lightning pool is improved, it means that other seventh-order spiritual objects lose the opportunity.

The Gu Hou great demon dared to destroy this spiritual object, obviously because he had also discovered a seventh-order spiritual object in other places, and compared to this spiritual plant, that one was obviously easier to pick, so he chose to destroy this one and keep the other.

However, this doesn't seem reasonable. After all, several major demon clans may discover seventh-order spiritual objects, and whoever discovers the more is more likely to obtain earth-grade spiritual objects. Wouldn't Gu Hou's destruction of this one give more opportunities to his opponents?

Zhang Yuanjing pondered for a long time, but couldn't grasp the key.

In the lightning pool, violent lightning was like snakes, moving around, causing sparks to fly from the mountain walls on both sides.

Zhang Yuanjing continued to retreat, retreating a full twenty miles. The demons on the opposite side, because they were the culprits of triggering the lightning power, became the primary target of the violent lightning power, and kept retreating until they were fifty miles away.

At this time, above the Thunder Valley behind the demons, the thunderclouds began to move, and dense lightning frequently descended.

Someone else is coming! Zhang Yuanjing's eyes narrowed, but hope rose in his heart. It would be best if those two Burning Sun Mountain True Men were there. With them fighting the transformed great demons, this spiritual object could be preserved. Moreover, they made a lightning-sealing cauldron, which could be said to be well prepared, and they were obviously very concerned about the spiritual object in the lightning pool.

However, the timing is a bit off. It hasn't been two days since the two Burning Sun Mountain True Men left the valley last time, and there hasn't been enough time to travel back and forth between Scarlet Earth Ridge and here. If it's really these two people, it can only be said that they didn't go to Scarlet Earth Ridge at all, but followed behind the Gu Hou and Yu Hu great demons and came here again.

The two transformed great demons obviously also noticed the movement behind them. They didn't wait for their opponents to attack, but took the initiative to meet them. They saw the thunderclouds in the sky gathering in one place, and several powerful lightning bolts struck down together, making a deafening roar.

With such lightning power, not to mention fighting in it, even withstanding the lightning strikes would be by no means easy.

Zhang Yuanjing didn't know how the four Nascent Soul level existences would fight in the lightning strikes.

He only saw that another thundercloud was moving towards the lightning pool, occasionally dropping a dozen or so weaker lightning bolts. This was obviously the dozen or so demon core realm demons, who were heading towards the lightning pool, intending to attack the lightning pool again.
