Where did Wu Xian learn the Five Thunder Authentic Method?
Firstly, it is not because the reincarnated Wu Xian exchanged the cultivation secret of the "Five Thunder Authentic Method."
This thing, in the exchange within the Main God Space, is worth an entire B-class side quest just for the manual alone. In other words, its maximum level is S-class, and it's incredibly difficult to cultivate it through practice.
However, the power of the Lightning Method is indeed very strong, and it can be considered a dimensional assault for most worlds. It would be a waste not to cultivate it.
So, including Xue Zhong Wu Xian, they thought of taking a different approach. By delving deep into the [Tongtian Manual], they aimed to uncover the fundamental mysteries of the Five Thunder Symbols, thus bypassing the steps of drawing symbols and directly mastering the Five Lightning Authentic Method.
There is no doubt that this is not an easy task. Wu Xian and his companions initially only saw it as a research topic.
Until recently, when Xu Xian swallowed and Wu Xian understood a portion of the lightning field, and when the reincarnation of Wu Xian became increasingly skilled in minute techniques, this possibility turned into reality.
Of course, as [Tongtian Manual] is a Main God version, the Five Lightning Authentic Method Wu Xian learned through it is not traditional, but rather an independent creation of Wu Xian and his companions based on numerous relevant resources on Lightning Method cultivation.
Although it is not yet completely perfected, the power it can unleash is already quite impressive, being able to directly summon heavenly thunder attacks on enemies. The stronger the world's level, the more powerful the Lightning Method becomes.
Booming roar—
Dual thunder collide in mid-air, creating a scene like two heavenly hammers clashing, emitting waves of thunder and sea.
From afar, it looks like a prelude to the end of days, playing out the sounds of destruction. All living beings within a radius of several tens of li, any being swept by this wave of sound, are shattered with terror in their hearts and die instantly, turning the surroundings of Longhushan into a silent death zone.
Fortunately, this is Longhu Mountain's ancestral temple, sparsely populated, and the Three Supreme Sages have already activated the Mountain-defending formation. Otherwise, just the aftereffects alone would have buried countless lives today.
This is the battle at the level of Land Immortals. Even the might of their confrontation can extinguish life, and their godly powers are so vast that they far exceed what ordinary people can imagine.
At the same time, in the void that no one can see, the five-color thunder dragons, colliding with the heavenly thunder, roar in resentment, but eventually they break apart and disintegrate. The remaining thunder and electrical flames pour down like a glowing waterfall, crashing down onto Zhao Xuansu's body.
Zhi la! Zhi la!
Bright, dazzling electricity gushes into every inch of his body, indiscriminately charging ahead and colliding with everything in its path. It unleashes the devastating power of thunder in a unrestrained and exhilarating way.
But the crackling explosion sounds were incessant, and his body's acupoints were shattered one by one, with blood spurting out as if it cost nothing.
At this moment, a faint glimmer of light appeared from Zhao Xuanzu's sky-lotus, as if it was trying to escape from the sea of thunder.
But unexpectedly, a fair and slender hand, as if waiting for a long time, blocked the path of the milli light. It seized it with a fist and held it in the palm.
"Youngling! Do you dare!"
"You've said similar words many times already. Don't you think it's amusing?"
Wu Xian looked at the jadeling struggling in his hand and curled a malicious smile: "Don't worry, I won't kill you. After all, a living Dragon Tiger Mountain ancestor is much more valuable than a dead one."
After saying that, the palm began to emit a faintly azure glow, gradually invading the jadeling in his hand, making the blue on its surface more intense.
"You! What have you done! Let me go! Let me go!"
Feeling his willpower being invaded and altered, this elder ancestor of Longhushan finally started to panic, and his voice was shivering.
"Nothing much, just making you my lackey."
As he spoke, Wu Xian's eyes narrowed slightly.
In the original work, Longhushan and Linyang Dynasty collaborate to gather the heavenly qi across the realm. The symbol of this cooperation is the Qiyun Lotus in the spiritual pool at the back mountain.
Because Xu Xiao has not yet helped the Linyang Dynasty to unite the world, the Qiyun Lotus in the spiritual pool at the back mountain has not yet reached its peak. Even if Zhao Xuanzu is killed now, it can only take away a dozen or so of the lotus petals' qi, which is a waste.
Moreover, Longhushan and Tianren have a close relationship. Now is it wise to completely fall out with them? It would be better to take this opportunity to plant a high-ranking "mole" within them.
In this way, he can always gain insight into their movements and even collect more qi through Zhao Xuanzu, which is a win-win situation.
With this in mind, Wu Xian's blue light intensified, and his two hands exerted their full strength to cast a faster spell that turned Zhao Xuanzu's Jadeling into his own form.
...
About half an hour later, the violent lightning in the sky began to dissipate. Two figures flew out in different directions, one soaring into the sky and laughing joyfully: "The Five Thunder Authentic Method is indeed powerful. Wu has benefited greatly today, and I will definitely visit Longhu Mountain in the future to seek enlightenment from senior ancestors!"
Hearing this voice, the monks on Longhushan's head instantly jumped with anxiety. They saw the elderly Taoist, whose appearance exuded immortality, suspended in the air. His robe was stained with blood, and his qi was extremely weak, giving the impression of being grievously injured and on the verge of death.
"Ancestor!!"
The Three Supreme Sages turned into streaks of light, flying to the old monk's side, their faces looking extremely unpleasant.
Especially Zhao Xiwang and Zhao Danxia, who witnessed Zhao Danping die at the hands of Wu Xian's fists with their own eyes, felt inexplicable sorrow. Seeing the other party leave unscathed, they were so angry that they trembled all over their bodies.
"Ah..."
Zhao Xuanzu sighed heavily and said, "Although this boy's cultivation is only at the level of Heavenly Formation, his combat power is incredible, perhaps even stronger than Wang Xianchi. I was only able to drive him back with all my strength by using the Five Thunder Authentic Method. But it would be extremely difficult to stop him from leaving."
"But brother, can we just let it go like this?"
Zhao Danxia tightly gritted her teeth, recalling the sight of her brother's death just now. Her eyes turned red with anger: "If we activated the entire strength of Longhushan, we might be able to capture this beast!"
"And then what, Longhushan suffers heavy casualties and loses a large portion of its qi. Do you want to make the people on Wudang Mountain laugh?"
Zhao Xuanzu looked at him, his gaze cold, which instantly left the current abbot of Longhushan speechless. Zhao Xiwang beside him also looked bitter and shook his head at Zhao Danxia.
"At this point, there's no point in dwelling on it. Our top priority now is to ensure that the war goes smoothly. Only by doing so can we make up for the loss of qi lotus and even raise Longhushan's qi even higher..."
"Xiwang, as per the previous plan, it was supposed to be Danping who entered the Linyang imperial court to negotiate cooperation with the Zhao family. Since he is no longer available, this task falls on you."
"Additionally, I lost a considerable amount of cultivation in the battle just now, and my realm is unstable. I need to seclude myself to stabilize for a period. If there are any important matters, you can discuss them with Zhao Huangchao."
After saying that, Zhao Xuanzu transformed back into an embryo body and flew back to the depths of Longhushan, leaving the three Taoist masters staring at each other in confusion.
"Speaking of it, haven't you noticed a problem?"
Among the three, the Taoist named Zhao Xishen said with a strange expression, "Up to now, we still don't know the identity of that person. We don't even know his complete name."
The other two Taoist masters were startled by his words, and their expressions became even more bitter.
"I remember... He called himself Wu."
Zhao Danxia remembered something and said in a low voice.
"Last name Wu... The top martial artist in the martial arts world with the surname Wu is from the Wu Family Sword Tomb. But a month ago, it was reported that the Wu Family Sword Tomb had been destroyed."
"Is it possible that this person is the illegitimate son of Wu Family Sword Tomb, known as the Sword Demon? If I'm not mistaken, his name should be Wu Xian, meaning 'envy' or 'desire.'"
"Most likely, considering he single-handedly destroyed the Wu Family Sword Tomb, his cultivation and combat power are extraordinary, so it's reasonable to expect."
"Sword Demon Wu Xian... Very good! We Longhushan will remember this grudge! Someday, you will pay it back many times over!"
