In the sky.
A violent thundercloud stretching for hundreds of miles, swept in from the distance!
At its center was a terrifying creature hundreds of meters tall!
Its entire body was composed of ice-blue crystals, their surfaces etched with mysterious patterns, and streaks of thunderous power coursed both inside and out; a pair of dark green crystal eyes revealed an air of lofty arrogance, and its gaze towards the group of human Cultivators gathered at the entrance of the Seven Stars Sect was filled with brutal killing intent.
Lei Mang had no intention of communicating with beings of the Mortal Realm.
Its massive stone arm smashed forward, and the violent thundercloud covering hundreds of miles around it, likewise smashed towards the Seven Stars Sect!
Lei Mang didn't even glance at the result of his attack, turning his head to fly into the sky, clearly believing this single strike was enough to annihilate the Seven Stars Sect!
The thundercloud, hundreds of miles wide, was incredibly violent, and smashed down by a mid-stage Void Refining Thunder Spirit, its power reached the limit of this world.
Lei Mang had already begun to accelerate, his body soaring into the sky.
But after flying for a while, the expected sound of thunder did not erupt, causing Lei Mang's departure action to pause.
He turned his head to look towards the Seven Stars Sect.
He saw a massive jade cauldron expanding to cover ten miles in circumference, and within the cauldron, a terrifying suction force seemed to erupt, furiously devouring the hundreds of miles of thundercloud!
The violent thunder before that jade cauldron seemed to turn into a docile kitten, showing no intention of resisting at all!
Old Qian laughed heartily, "After devouring the heavenly thunder, I gained the ability to transform into a thunder pool. I originally thought I could only condense a little thunder essence and that would be it, but I didn't expect to be able to restrain the power of thunder so much! All this thunder will become my nourishment!"
White-haired Su Qian was doing his best to control the Myriad Treasures Qiankun Cauldron to devour the hundreds of miles of thundercloud. At the bottom of the Qiankun Cauldron, a pool of thunder essence had already formed. The violent thundercloud had become the best raw material, and the refined thunder essence could be used for cultivation by a large number of Nascent Soul Cultivators!
Su Yuan was also helping to activate the Qiankun Cauldron, his magic power continuously refining the thunder. The hundreds of miles of thundercloud were successfully refined by the combined efforts of one person and one treasure in just over ten breaths!
The Myriad Treasures Qiankun Cauldron shrunk, returning to Su Yuan's hand.
A satisfied burp came from the mouth of the cauldron: "Burp, I'm full!"
Su Yuan looked at Lei Mang in the sky, cupped his hands, and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for the generous gift! Take care, no need to see you out!"
Lei Mang paused in mid-air. At this moment, he felt that he had lost Face!
He couldn't help but look up at the sky, then quickly lowered his head, looking grimly at Su Yuan. This human had made him lose Face in front of his chieftain. He wanted to extract this human's Soul and press it into the endless thunder prison to suffer ten thousand years of thunderous torture!
Meanwhile, Su Yuan was currently analyzing the creature before him.
Streaks of starlight descended from the sky, bringing him accurate analysis results.
Su Yuan gradually gained a general understanding of the creature before him.
He listed the main data in his mind.
[Name]: Lei Mou
[Race]: Thunder Spirit Giant
[Cultivation]: Mid-stage Void Refining
[Vital Point]: Thunder Source Core
[Law Comprehension]: Thunder Law: Just Entered (9/129600)
[Divine Abilities]: Thundercloud Descent, Thunder Escape, Gui Water Yin Thunder, Thunder Domain
[Weapon]: Hammer of Thunder (Seventh-tier Low Grade Spirit Treasure)
[Physical Strength]: Comparable to Seventh-tier Mid-grade Spirit Treasure
The opponent's information was gradually grasped by Su Yuan through slow analysis.
The opponent's cultivation was extremely high, and their physical defense was very strong. They also possessed a Seventh-tier Spirit Treasure and mastered powerful divine abilities. Only their comprehension of Laws was slightly weaker.
Just now, when he comprehended the Thunder Law, he perceived that the complete Thunder Law had a total of 129,600 profound mysteries. The opponent had comprehended nine profound mysteries, which belonged to the just-entered level.
As for Su Yuan, during the process of comprehending the Heavenly Downpour Thunder Sea just now, he specialized in the destructive properties of thunder, comprehending a total of 72 profound mysteries, which counted as stepping across the threshold of Laws.
His Physical Body was also extremely strong; a body with a lifespan of 120,000 years belonged to the category of super life forms and was no worse than the opponent's.
He also possessed Seventh-tier Spirit Treasures, and two of them. Although the Myriad Treasures Qiankun Cauldron had not yet recovered to the Seventh-tier, its essence was there.
The biggest difference should be in the quality of magic power. The magic power of a Peak Nascent Soul is two major Realms lower than that of a Peak Void Refining Cultivator. However, because his magic power is much higher in quality than those at the same Realm, what appears to be Peak Nascent Soul magic power is equivalent to the quality of mid-stage Spirit Transformation magic power, so in reality, it is only one major Realm difference.
He also didn't know if the comprehension of Laws could make up for the gap in magic power. If it could, it would prove one thing: the most important thing in cultivation is one's Dao foundation, and magic power is secondary.
All these thoughts occurred in just a moment.
After Lei Mang turned around, he was furious. A large hammer appeared out of thin air in his hand. He took a step, and with a flicker, he arrived outside the Seven Stars Sect.
"Die!"
With one hammer strike, thunder filled the sky.
Su Yuan let out a cold snort. The Myriad Treasures Qiankun Cauldron transformed into a Seven Stars Treasure Sword. Su Yuan used his own magic power to activate the Seven Stars Treasure Sword and unleashed his improved Divine Ability.
"Seven Stars Five Elements Thunder Sword!"
As one sword was unleashed, six sword shadows followed. While the seven Flying Swords formed a sword array, countless streaks of thunder also spread within it, finally condensing into an enormous thunder sword!
The thunder essence stored within the Myriad Treasures Qiankun Cauldron provided energy support for this thunder sword, causing its power to rise rapidly.
The giant thunder hammer and the giant thunder sword collided in mid-air.
Boom boom boom!
Ten thousand streaks of thunder exploded the instant they touched. Both Spirit Treasures bounced back, and the violent power spread throughout a hundred-mile radius. A faint spatial crack was torn in the sky. The moment the crack appeared, an incredible suction force was generated, sucking all the exploded thunder into the spatial rift.
Even the giant thunder hammer and the Myriad Treasures Qiankun Cauldron were forced to fly towards the spatial crack.
Fortunately, the spatial crack only appeared for an instant, and neither of the two Spirit Treasures was sucked into it.
But it gave both Lei Mang and Su Yuan a fright.
Lei Mang quickly retreated dozens of miles.
As Su Yuan took back the Myriad Treasures Qiankun Cauldron, he heard Old Qian's terrified voice: "A spatial crack, that's a spatial crack, it scared me to death! If I were sucked into the spatial turbulence by a spatial crack, my life would be over!"
Su Yuan also hadn't expected a spatial crack to appear.
The attacks of the two had actually reached a level of equal strength.
Su Yuan had just now not borrowed the ability of any entries, relying purely on his own comprehension of Laws, and at a Realm lower than the opponent by one major Realm, he had fought the opponent to a standstill.
The bonus from comprehending Laws in battle was truly terrifying!
Lei Mang recovered his senses, and coldly snorted, "Lower Realm human, I was careless just now. This time I will condense my attack into one, you are dead for sure!"
In the blink of an eye, his body shrunk from five hundred meters to five meters. The Hammer of Thunder also shrunk in sync, but its power was even stronger!
The shrunk Lei Mang appeared more agile. With a thought, he continuously flickered in mid-air, rapidly approaching Su Yuan's side.
Lei Mang was skilled in close combat. The moment he closed in on Su Yuan, with him as the center, everything within five miles transformed into his exclusive Thunder Domain!
Under this Divine Ability, enemies would be suppressed by the Thunder Law of heaven and earth, and their movements would be extremely slow.
A flash of killing intent appeared in Lei Mang's eyes. Taking advantage of the opponent's impaired movement, he would deliver another thunderous strike!
The plan was perfect.
Then, the instant he approached Su Yuan.
Su Yuan, however, took a step back and stepped into a spatial portal.
"How can you still move?"
Lei Mang frowned. He realized that his Law Domain had not restricted the opponent.
However, he didn't pay too much attention.
"A Secret Realm gate? Trying to run?"
Lei Mang sneered and charged forward fearlessly.
In an instant, space shifted.
Su Yuan and Lei Mang, one after the other, entered the Seventh-tier Grotto-heaven Spirit Treasure.
"You actually dared to come in?" Su Yuan said in shock.
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Lei Mang replied.
But the moment he sensed his surroundings, his expression changed drastically: "Wait, this is inside a Spirit Treasure?"
"Bing Gou, you got it right! Looks like you were too lazy to even gather information! You didn't know I had a Grotto-heaven Spirit Treasure in my hand? Little Li, suppress him!"
"Alrighty!"
A silver fox appeared in mid-air. The fox's small Face was tense as it lightly shouted, "Suppress!"
Inside the Spirit Treasure, a large number of Restrictions appeared out of thin air, instantly forming a super Formation that fiercely suppressed Lei Mang.
In an instant, Lei Mang felt his strength being suppressed by thirty percent!
Lei Mang's expression darkened, but he still remained calm.
But Su Yuan's actions did not stop.
"[Posture of a Mighty Figure]!"
At this moment, a pressure that should have belonged to a mid-stage Body Integration Cultivator appeared on Su Yuan's body.
Su Yuan stared at Lei Mang, applying this pressure onto Lei Mang as well.
The pressure from his cultivation Realm, at close range, gave Lei Mang a show of strength!
Under the oppression of the Body Integration pressure, Lei Mang's strength was further weakened by thirty percent!
And at the same time, the Big Dipper in the sky lit up brightly. A large amount of starlight passed through the Spirit Treasure, enveloping Su Yuan. On this basis, Su Yuan's strength increased by seventy percent out of thin air!
All these changes were completed within a single breath.
It was at this moment that Su Yuan spoke to Lei Mang: "Now, we can have a fair fight!"
Lei Mang's Face was so gloomy it looked like water was dripping from it.
"Despicable!"
Su Yuan frowned: "You actually called me despicable?"
He controlled the Floating Void Pot to fly to the center of the Seven Stars Sect's Formation, and said to the Formation Spirit, "Activate the Formation!"
The Formation Spirit immediately responded!
From each of the Seven Stars Sect's seven Peaks, a beam of light shot straight into the sky. The seven beams of light converged in mid-air, forming a seven-colored ribbon that instantly passed through the Floating Void Pot and landed on Lei Mang.
Lei Mang's strength was suppressed by several more percent. The seven-colored ribbon turned into seven-colored chains, restraining Lei Mang's movements.
Lei Mang finally panicked. The strength he could exert was already less than ten or twenty percent of his Peak, while his opponent's strength was continuously increasing!
With one's strength decreasing while the other's increases, he was in danger!
"How could this be!" Lei Mang realized his current situation was very bad!
