Chapter 579 - Thunder Stone

Even though the Mountain Monarch Seal was unable to fully utilize the true power of the “Sky Tremor Seal”, and it had coincidentally allowed Yang Junshan to release even more energy to control the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers that he had used the first time, the power of the top hundred divine ability on the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Ranking was still far beyond Yang Junshan’s expectations.

The carefully laid Five Elements Lightning Light had been completely destroyed, and the floor that was rich in metal had sunk down several meters into the ground. Furthermore, the bottom of the hole had formed a gentle slope, with dense cracks shooting out in all directions like spider webs.

Yang Junshan half knelt on the ground not far away from them. This was the first time he had used the “Sky Tremor Seal”, but he still could not completely control the power of the sacred art.

After swallowing two of the Spirit Dans that could be used to recover his True Essence and sensing the Essence in his body, Yang Junshan’s complexion became slightly better. He reached his hand out towards the bottom of the pit, and the Mountain Monarch Seal shrunk again as it flew back.

But when he looked at the life treasure in his hand, Yang Junshan’s heart ached. The current Mountain Monarch Seal had four shallow cracks running down its surface all the way to the bottom of the treasure, and the degree of damage had already surpassed that of the mountain cleaver, Yang Junshan suspected that if he used his abilities on it, it would break into four pieces.

Yang Junshan walked to the bottom of the pit. Originally, the place where the Mountain Monarch Seal had landed was not the corpse of the Cultivator Zi Mei, even if the strike from the Mountain Monarch Seal was too tyrannical, it was possible for the to smash the person to pieces. However, there should have been traces left behind, but there was nothing at the bottom of the pit.

Yang Junshan’s heart jumped, could it be that Cultivator Zi Mei was not hit and escaped at the last moment? Or could it be that this person also had the same earth escaping ability as Yang Junshan and finally escaped from underground?

With this thought in mind, a thunderous explosion suddenly occurred in the sky. Yang Junshan immediately felt his scalp go numb, and hastily leaped backwards, aay of lightning the size of an arm struck the bottom of the deep pit.

Yang Junshan watched in a daze as the lightning disappeared. However, the bottom of the pit suddenly emitted a blurry purple light.

Yang Junshan became even more vigilant. He remembered clearly that when he almost fell into Cultivator Zi Mei’s trap, he had also turned into a ball of purple lightning and was struck by the falling lightning.

Could it be that this fellow is still alive even after being struck by such a sacred art?

As another bolt of lightning descended from the sky, causing the purple light at the bottom of the crater to grow brighter and brighter, Yang Junshan was increasingly uncertain in his heart, but his curiosity had still caused him to carefully walk to the side of the crater. This time, he was able to see it clearly, the originally thin layer of soil at the bottom of the crater had been split open, revealing a purple glowing crystal, at the same time it had a purple oval-shaped crystal stone, which was about a foot long.

Both of Yang Junshan’s eyes were frosted over, and he could faintly see that there seemed to be purple markings on the inside of this crystal stone, and there seemed to be viscous liquid matter flowing within the markings, and the lightning scattered around the crystal stone seemed to be something that was extended from this liquid.

Could it be that there was some liquid thunder inside this crystal?

The liquid thunder, as its name implied, was naturally the liquid essence condensed from the lightning. It sounded outrageous, but sucreasure did exist in the cultivation world.

Yang Junshan’s heart skipped a beat. The most common treasure to condense thunder essence was naturally the Five Elements Lightning Light Gem, which Yang Junshan had previously obtained, and used it to lay down the protection array of the Five Elements Lightning Light Spirit Formation. It was just that at that time, the Five Elements Lightning Light Gem was only the size of an egg, and this purple crystal was of the same type as the Five Elements Lightning Light Gem.

Yang Junshan’s eyes had already started to shine. It was already enough to set up the complete Five Elements Lightning Light’s treasure array, and how long could such a large gem support the operation of the array for?

This thought flashed across Yang Junshan’s mind, and he was about to go to the bottom of the pit to put away the huge crystal, but once again, a ray of lightning struck down from the sky. In that instant, he saw clearly, the lightning landed on this purple elliptical crystal, and other than a portion that scattered in all directions, the rest of the lightning was absorbed into the purple crystal!

Just like this, Yang Junshan suddenly thought of the scene where the Cultivator Zi Mei transformed into a ball of lightning and was struck continuously by the lightning on a high ground. Could it be that this purple crystal was left behind after the Cultivator Zi Mei had fallen, or that this purple crystal was simply the Cultivator Zi Mei’s main body?

Yang Junshan’s eyes flickered as he looked at the large crystal stone. After a moment of lightning, he quickly approached the bottom of the pit, stomped his feet, and the crystal immediately flew up from the ground. With the opening of a spatial ring on Yang Junshan’s left hand, the purple crystal was immediately swallowed into his storage space.

If the purple crystal was really alive, then it would be impossible for it to be kept in his spatial ring. In other words, even if the purple crystal was alive, it could only be a dead object if it were to enter the spatial ring.

After putting away the purple crystal, Yang Junshan purposely stayed near the deep pit for a while, but in the sky, there were no more lightning strikes.

After killing the Cultivator Zi Mei and obtaining the purple crystal stone that looked like the actual body of the Cultivator Zi Mei, Yang Junshan didn’t know how to walk out of this dream-like space. Unexpectedly, when he raised his head, he discovered that he didn’t know when it started, but the thick lead clouds that covered the sky had already started to dissipate.

However, what was revealed behind the clouds was not the sunlight that he hadn’t seen for a long time, but a deep space passage.

It was only now that Yang Junshan realized that perhaps the Cultivator Zi Mei was not some kind of Alien Cultivator, but ratheest formed in this illusion space. And the method to pass the test was obviously to kill the Cultivator Zi Mei.

However, what kind of treasure was that purple crystal?

When he thought about the Five Elements Lightning Light Gem he had obtained in the Sunset abode, he realized that this small piece waare high grade spirit material. Whether it was the purple crystal or the lightning essence it contained, it was many times more powerful than the Five Elements Lightning Light Gem.

No matter what, it could still be considered a high-grade precious rank spirit material, right?

Thinking about it, Yang Junshan could not help but console himself, it seemed that his luck was not too bad, a high grade treasure spirit material, was at least better than the few cultivators who obtained low and middle grade spirit artifacts from the Illusory Mist Dimension. Furthermore, with this treasure at the base of the formation, the village protection formation of the Xishan Village would be able to be fully upgraded to a Five Elements Lightning Light Treasure Formation.

In the entire Yuzhou’s cultivation world, only Jade Sword Sect, Yuxiao Sect, Tan Xi Sect and a few others could talk about how the great protective formation of several sects wareasure grade formation, and it could only be considered average in a treasure grade formation. However, even if the Five Elements Lightning Light’s formation was located in a treasure grade formation, it could still be considered one of the top few formations, and it seemed that only the sect’s protective formation of the Heaven-Shaking Peak could compare to it.

Of course, the array’s power was not only based on the grade of the array, but also on the methods and tools used to set it up. Not to mention the background of the Heaven-Shaken Sect back then, even the other sects in the cultivation world of the Yuzhou would not be able to make up for it with jusrecious array.

The passage to the illusionary space had already been opened. Yang Junshan held the Fantasy Spirit Stone that was placed on his waist in his hands, and his entire body was immediately pulled out of the illusionary space, returning to the illusionary mist.

Just as Yang Junshan was about to once again look around at the illusionary space that flickered likorse lamp, a light suddenly lit up in front of him. Yang Junshan immediately focused his attention on the rapidly expanding speck of light, and at this time, the Fantasy Spirit Stone in his hands suddenly emitted a faint light, and Yang Junshan suddenly felt as if his entire body was pulled by a rope. He couldn’t help but stagger two steps forward, and the illusion around him suddenly changed, as he was out of the illusionary mist, and returned to the cool jade mountain range.

Yang Junshan immediately looked at the Fantasy Spirit Stone in his hand, only to see that it was still perfectly in his hand. Although it looked exactly the same as before, he still felt that there was something missing in the Fantasy Spirit Stone’s hand.

Just then, a series of spiritual senses locked onto Yang Junshan from different directions.

Yang Junshan was startled, at the same time, he flipped his palm and kept the Fantasy Spirit Stone. At the same time, he looked around and discovered that he was not at a familiar place, and the surrounding area were probably the ambushed cultivators from various powers and races. When they saw him create the illusionary mist, they naturally swarmed over to snatch the treasure that he had brought out from the illusionary mist space.

Just as Yang Junshan was in a daze, numerous divine abilities had already surged towards him from different directions.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yang Junshan leaped forward with the intention to plunge into the ground, preparing to use the Earth Disappearing Spirit Art to escape.

“You want to escape? It won’t be that easy!”

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the woods beside him, “Curse, Stone!”

The soil within three meters of Yang Junshan instantly congealed intuge rock. Even though Yang Junshan’s Earth Escape Technique was profound, he had not reached the stage where he could cultivate it to the petrified state.

Yang Junshan was extremely shocked. He knew that the witch cultivators from the tribe in the rear were casting the curse, and this witch’s cultivation was at least at the late stage of the Blood Witch Realm.

Initially, Yang Junshan had planned to go his separate ways with the people of Heaven-Shaken Sect when he was exploring the illusion, because he relied on the Earth Escape Spirit Art. For this reason, even though he had the Spirit Rhino Rune in his hand, Yang Junshan did not even ask Lao Yang to come over to support him, let alone the scene in front of him, where Lao Yang was only at the peak of the Astral Transformation Realm.

Since the Earth Disappearing Spirit Art had lost its use, Yang Junshan naturally could not just sit still and wait for death.
