Just as Yu Jian was about to reach the Primordial Liquid, it suddenly exploded. A figure flew out of the water and landed by the side of the pool.

It was Ling Yun!

At this moment, Ling Yun's black hair was in disarray, his black eyes were like stars, and his handsome face was brimming with an unprecedented confidence.

Just now, with the huge amount of Essence Pool Essence Qi, Ling Yun had broken through to the third level of the Mortal Origin Stage!

His current cultivation base was at the fourth level of the Mortal Origin Stage.

"You … You actually broke through! "

Yu Jian found this hard to believe, his eyes wide open in shock. It was obvious that his heart was not at peace.

Even the greed and madness in his eyes receded.

"Humph, so what if you've broken through? My cultivation is still one level higher than yours. Today, you won't be able to escape death!"

Ling Yun said lightly: "Haha, if I hadn't broken through to the third level of the Mortal Origin Stage, it would be hard for me to win against you, but right now, who wins and who loses isn't certain!"

"Stop boasting, your Ling Family members are all trash who only know how to talk!"

Killing intent burst out of Yu Jian's eyes, as he charged towards Ling Yun.

"Barbarian Elephant Technique, Barbarian Elephant Heaven Trampling Technique!"

Yu Jian let out a loud roar, and thirty-four illusory flood dragons appeared behind him. Their imposing manner was like a true wild elephant, charging towards Ling Yun.

"The power of thirty-four Flood Dragons huh …"

Ling Yun took in a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, a bright light shot out.

"Thunder Shattering Saber Technique, Heavenly Thunder Slash Mountain!"

Ling Yun held onto his blade with both hands, and his entire body was like a huge bow that was brimming with energy, suddenly releasing a terrifying energy, and slashing towards Yu Jian's head.

With this slash, Ling Yun's explosive strength had already reached thirty-six Flood Dragons! Compared to Yu Jian, who was only at the fourth level of the Mortal Origin Stage, who had used a medium-grade human-step martial skill, the strength of two more flood dragons.

As the saying goes, a level one official could crush a person to death. It was the same when placed on the martial path.

In this kind of dangerous competition, the difference between the strength of two Flood Dragons could completely determine life or death in an instant.

A snow-white saber light lit up in the dark room, and instantly cleaved down. Following that, both of Yu Jian's arms were cut off by Ling Yun, and blood splattered!

Ah!

Yu Jian let out a sharp howl like a pig being butchered.

"How is this possible? He's only at the third step, but his strength is actually stronger than mine …"

Both of Yu Jian's arms were chopped off, and he was rolling back and forth on the ground in pain like a human club.

I will kill you! "AHH!" My hand! "How dare you cripple me, I will eat you alive!

Yu Jian's eyes were bloodshot, like those of a beast, filled with hatred and malice.

"Hmph, you're still trying to be fierce now that things have gotten to this point?"

Ling Yun's foot landed on Yu Jian's chest, and instantly, the sound of bones breaking rang out from Yu Jian's chest, causing Yu Jian to wail in pain.

"A greedy and ruthless person like you simply cannot be blamed for death."

Ling Yun raised the lightning blade in his hand high up, a bright light rolling on the blade.

"You … You … You dare to kill me? My brother won't let you go! My brother favors me the most! If he knows that you've killed me, he'll kill all your friends and relatives before killing you to avenge me … Do you know who my elder brother is? "Ahhh!"

Before Yu Jian could finish his threat, Lingyun chopped down with his blade, killing this fellow.

From Yu Jian's corpse, Ling Yun found a few items.

A low-grade human-step Natal Technique of the Ling Family.

It was a medium-grade human-step martial skill – Barbarian Elephant Technique. There was also an item bag filled with materials.

What Ling Yun did not lack the most right now was the Essence Arts. With the [Holy Thunder Crossing Disaster Technique], the other Natal Arts were not even close to his eyes. As a result, the Yu Family's Essence Arts were of little use to Ling Yun.

The Mighty Elephant Skill, a Middle Rank Martial Skill, was pretty good. It was quite powerful and could be used as a substitute for the Frenzied Bull Fist.

As for the materials, they gave Ling Yun a huge surprise.

These materials were actually used as supplementary materials for refining elemental armor.

"This Yu Jian should also be planning on coming to the Thunder Cave Mountain to refine his Yuan Armor, so he prepared so many precious supplementary ingredients. However, right now, he's taking advantage of me."

"In this Thunder Lizard Tomb, there are many top-grade Thunder Stones, and with so many precious supplementary materials, I can completely refine a medium-grade Essence Armor."

His heart was moved beyond action, Ling Yun immediately began to move.

Lingyun picked out a golden thunder stone of the highest quality from the tomb. This golden thunder stone could be used to refine high quality armor, but right now Lingyun does not lack lightning stones, so it did not matter if it was extravagant.

A broken set of Yuan Armor appeared from his Dantian. On the Yuan Armor, there were cracks like that of a spider web. It looked as if it would shatter at a touch.

If it were not for this pair of armor, Lingyun would have been killed by this despicable person, Ling Rong's, sneak attack.

A tyrannical wave of lightning essence gushed out from Lingyun's body. It wrapped around the top grade lightning stone and other precious supplementary materials and began to refine it.

Under the effects of the Thunder Yuan, all the ingredients continued to decompose, turning into liquid and fusing into the broken Essence Armor around Lingyun's body.

"..."

It took a full three days for Ling Yun to finish refining the top quality thunder stone and the other materials, and integrate them into the Essence Armor.

With a thought from Lingyun, a glittering set of Essence Armor materialized from his dantian and wrapped around his body.

At this moment, Lingyun was like a god in golden armor, looking magnificent!

"I've struck gold this time. Although the low-grade Essence Armor that I refined previously has been destroyed, the set of Essence Armor that I am currently refining now can be considered as top-notch quality even among the medium-grade Essence Armors."

"This pair of armor should be able to defend against attacks below fifty times the dragon's strength. However, even though the quality of this armor is good, it still requires a lot of soul force to use. With my current cultivation level, I can only use it once in a short period of time."

"A good life saving item!"

Lingyun put away his Essence Armor and began to look for another way out of the cave.

"..."

Outside of the Thunder Cave Mountain.

The two groups of people from the Ling and Yu Families gazed at the Thunder Cave Mountain from afar.

The two groups of people were in a sorry state, almost all of them injured. Not only that, both teams had fewer members, and they would most likely remain in the Thunder Cave Mountain for the rest of their lives.

"That beast is too despicable, it actually chased us for so long!"

"A few of us were bitten to death by this beast, sigh …"

"Yu Jian is stuck in that cave, he probably won't be able to return. If his brother asks, we won't be able to escape his wrath!" Big Brother Yu Yue, what should we do? "

"What do we care? Who told that bird man Yu Jian to be so greedy? A human's heart is not strong enough to swallow an elephant!" No matter how arrogant Yu Wenzhou is, he can't do anything to us. Let's go, there's a high chance that Yu Jian won't be able to come out. There's no need to wait any longer. "
