Ancient Thunder Dragon Spell Chapter 66

Chapter 66 - A World Without Day and Night

In the instant that the giant Ant Man formed, a monstrous amount of blood fiend Qi spread out in the air, and in the moment that the blood fiend Qi spread out, the huge Ant Man formed from the countless blood ants, suddenly punched towards Lei Yang at an extremely fast speed.

While Lei Yang was running at top speed, he suddenly felt a strong pressure coming from behind him, he could not help but turn and look behind him. When he looked, his mind buzzed, and all the cells in his body seemed to let out a scream at the same time.

"Oh my G.o.d, what the h.e.l.l is this!" Lei Yang looked at the giant Ant Man behind him and punched towards him. The powerful aura of the punch was so strong that it directly set off a giant storm in the sky and earth and the aura that was emitted from the punch was no longer Spiritual Source, but rather the Core Formation Qi which surpa.s.sed the Spiritual Source.

"Oh, h.e.l.l!" Lei Yang scolded in his heart. At the same time, a sense of danger that surpa.s.sed any previous life caused Lei Yang to not even need to think, as he released his aurasea with a boom, blasting the spa.r.s.e amount of spirit energy towards his legs. In an instant, he forcefully increased his speed yet again.

In an instant, he shot forward like an arrow, slicing through the air and almost towards the edge of the plains, with a sharp sound as if he was tearing through the air.

Just as the monstrous storm was about to hit Lei Yang, he finally rushed out of the plains with a whistle, and arrived at a relatively empty stretch of wasteland between the plains and mountains.

He did not even dare to turn his head. After running for a long distance, he realized that the danger to his life was gradually weakening. As he ran, he quickly turned his head to take a look at the situation behind him.

It turned out that the army of blood ants that chased relentlessly without any fear actually stopped at the edge of the plains and did not continue onward. It was as if there was a special boundary between the plains and the mountain ranges.

At this moment, they had already reverted to a red cloud that covered the sky and the earth. Seeing Lei Yang turning around and stopping there, they all let out furious roars, but no matter what, they were all willing to take half a step out of the plain.

After Lei Yang understood, he heaved a sigh of relief. In order to understand the situation, he even took out the congealed tobacco from his ring on his finger and waved it around, purposely testing the Golden Ant King.

This instantly provoked the wrath of the Golden Ant King, and the entire Blood Ant Army, to the extreme. They all let out furious roars.

The sound wave that roared out was so strong that it created another powerful storm in the air. However, no matter what, he did not dare to surpa.s.s the boundary that could not be seen, nor did he dare to surpa.s.s the Art that was formed.

In the end, Lei Yang provoked his for a while, and after feeling that he had vented her anger, he turned around and quickly ran forward. This plain was truly full of strange and dangerous things. He felt that it was better to stay away from it.

He continued on for a few more kilometers before finally stopping on the limestone beneath him.

As for the Blood Ant Army, they roared unwillingly as they watched Lei Yang get further and further away. However, they were still unable to cross the invisible boundary, and could only return to the depths of the plains under the Golden Ant King's lead.

… ….

On top of the cyan stone, Lei Yang sat crossed legged. Until now, his heart still had not completely calmed down. At this moment, he looked at the sky and let out a long breath. A strong sense of happiness rose in his heart.

The experiences he had experienced in the past few days made him feel as if he was in another world. This was the first time he had encountered such a clear and direct pursuit from a blood ant. It was an unrelenting madness that made him realize that his own strength was fundamental to his survival.

After a long while, he took out the congealed tobacco from his storage ring. When he saw the congealed tobacco, his heart was immediately filled with joy, and he instantly tossed that miserable experience to the back of his mind.

However, he suppressed his happiness right after it rose. He quickly corrected his own thoughts. It was really because he was too impulsive this time, which caused him to be in such danger. It almost made him lose his life. He did not know when he had become so greedy and bold. Now that he thought about it, it did not make any sense, even if he had succeeded.

"This is not a good sign. No, we can't do this again!" Lei Yang looked at the congealed tobacco in his hand and said to himself ruthlessly in his heart. However, he still couldn't bear to let go of the cigarette in his hand. Thus, the corner of his mouth once again raised up with that bashful and iconic smile. "Hehehe …" "Hehehe … heheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheyou …"

Although there were a few popular saying amongst cultivators, saying, "If one was not crazy, one would never become an immortal!" and "There were always risks to becoming rich", Lei Yang understood that all of these had to be established under the condition of being able to preserve one's own life.

Of course, in a situation where he could preserve his life, if there was a good treasure, he would still have to fight for it.

While admiring the congealed tobacco, only after a long while did Lei Yang put away the congealed tobacco in satisfaction.

He did not hastily consume the Spirit Gra.s.s. Although this place did not feel any danger from the plains, it was too s.p.a.cious and he needed a more secretive place to cultivate.

After a few days, Lei Yang discovered that although this large tomb was a world of its own, there was no distinction between night and day. The sky seemed to forever be covered by a layer of dusky fog, and that faintly discernable dark red blood moon had also never changed.

Even more outrageous was that although it seemed like the spiritual energy in this world was extremely dense, in reality, these spiritual energy couldn't be absorbed by cultivators at all. This was because there was a type of death energy that couldn't be separated from them.

The aura of death was originally impossible to see, but after absorbing the sea of cultivation morale and entering the body of a cultivator, it quickly corroded their life force, causing them to age even faster.

This world was getting more and more mysterious, and the danger within had probably long surpa.s.sed the description given by Floating Cloud Pavilion Elder w.a.n.g Hua Tian. Thus, Lei Yang became even more cautious in his heart.

After resting for a while, Lei Yang felt that he had recovered some of his energy. After standing up, he did not stop and went straight to the gigantic mountain range ahead.

The vegetation in this mountain range was even more lush and verdant. At a glance, one could tell that there were even more demonic beasts or unknown dangers lurking on the plains.

Lei Yang carefully approached the mountain range and entered its depths. Only then did he realise that this seemingly dangerous mountain range was actually much safer than the plains.

The plains seemed peaceful, but they were actually filled with hidden murderous intent. Although this mountain range seemed dangerous, it was actually a pure land. Although there were many demon beasts among them, most of them were alone and not too brutal.

Along the way, Lei Yang carefully killed many spirit beast at the eighth level of Qi, and harvested many beast cores. It was a grey coloured, mutated demonic rabbit. Although it had a cultivation level of 8, its intelligence was very low. It seemed to be a special reward for cultivators.

On this day, Lei Yang was about to reach the summit of a mountain when he saw a decent cave. He immediately decided to close up and see if he could still raise his cultivation a little bit more.

Because he couldn't replenish the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth from the outside world, he had used up most of his Spiritual Qi. Moreover, it was already difficult to completely recover by relying on his own circulation, so he had to find a place to replenish himself.

It was a very secretive cave on the cliff, the inside of the cave was rather s.p.a.cious, and it was dry, Lei Yang was very satisfied.

Without any hesitation, he took out the stalk of Condensed Tobacco and swallowed it in one gulp.

The Spirit Gra.s.s was indeed strange. As soon as it entered his mouth, it turned into a wisp of misty cloud. Then, with a burst of boundless spiritual energy, it directly rushed towards the Qi Sea.

If it was anyone else seeing a spirit herb being eaten by Lei Yang, they would definitely cry out in pain. Other cultivators would have to slowly refine this kind of spirit medicine, and they would need to refine it many times before being able to refine one of these rare and superior spirit herbs, while Lei Yang was like a cow chewing on a peony.

After his many experiments, Lei Yang had long understood the power of his Astral Sea. No matter what heaven and earth treasure that contained spirit energy, he could directly consume them, and his Astral Sea would expel the remaining waste gas from his body through strong repulsive force. Furthermore, he never had to worry about his Qi Sea exploding due to the pressure of the spirit energy.

This was the mystery of the sea of stars!

This congealing tobacco was indeed extraordinary. It seemed to only have a few leaves, but the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth contained within them was the power of the Spiritual Essence of Heaven and Earth that had been condensing over the years.

The moment the boundless spirit energy rushed into the Qi Sea, the long-dormant golden whirlpool in the middle of Lei Yang's Qi Sea started to spin very quickly. As it spun, the purest form of spirit energy entered the Qi Sea from the center of the golden whirlpool, causing the Qi Sea to be filled up in an instant.

In just an instant, not only did Lei Yang's cultivation recover, he even went from being at the late stage of the seventh level to reaching the peak. Immediately after, he felt a familiar kacha sound coming from his body.

His cultivation had risen rapidly, breaking through to the eighth level in one go. He continued to increase until he reached the middle of the eighth level. Only then did he finally stop.

Inside the cave, Lei Yang took a few breaths to stabilize his body before suddenly opening his eyes. In that moment, two pairs of eyes, that were like two sharp swords, flashed with an astonis.h.i.+ng sharpness!

"Hahaha, I finally broke through again!" Lei Yang laughed heartily.

This feeling of having broken through, which he hadn't felt in a long time, made him more and more confident. It was as if he could already see the hope to save his mother.

"This is indeed a good treasure!" Lei Yang felt the Cultivation Power that was surging in his Qi Sea, and thought that he would need more of it in the future. Only with this kind of thing, would he be able to improve even faster, and the dangerous experience in his heart had long been thrown to the back of his mind.

Lei Yang carefully examined his own cultivation, he realised that this time, not only was his cultivation close to the middle of the eighth level of Qi only a little bit away from the late stage, his spirit sense had also astonis.h.i.+ngly grown, and when it spread out, it actually reached an area of one hundred and eighty meters.

Not only that, but the strength of his body had also increased. Even though he was already behind in terms of cultivation, he had already reached the early stage of the eighth level of spiritual energy.

Lei Yang could also feel it. The last time he had fought with Lei Chengfeng, he had used the Earth Dragon Pellet to forcefully break through into the next realm.

However, what shocked him the most was that the spiritual energy in his aura sea started to turn a faint gold color as he broke through to the eighth level of spiritual energy.

"Golden spiritual energy!" Lei Yang had never heard of it before, but he could feel the same kind of majestic power from the golden light dots that was condensed into a golden dragon pattern before. However, compared to that kind of power, it was inferior.

Lei Yang roughly estimated his current fighting strength. If he met someone at the Spiritual Qi great circle, he would be able to handle it easily.

Lei Yang stepped out of the cave, and the sky outside was still the same gray as ever. In order to check his surroundings and experience the powerful Spiritual Awareness, he suddenly spread it out. He discovered that there was a slight cultivation fluctuation coming from the peak of the mountain not far from here.

Lei Yang was immediately like a cheetah, carefully sneaking up from the other side of the mountain.

At the moment, Lei Yang felt the Qi undulations ahead of him getting stronger and stronger, he could not bother to look at the surrounding plains, and slowly headed towards the direction of the Qi undulations.

The mountain peak's area was unexpectedly huge. Lei Yang followed the direction of the cultivation undulations for a period of time before a valley suddenly appeared in front of him.

The valley was surrounded by small mountains, making it difficult to see the situation inside. However, based on the terrain, it should be a small valley. This was, after all, a mountain peak, so it was impossible for there to be too big of a valley.

Right at this moment, the valley suddenly resounded with a m.u.f.fled sound of powerful spells colliding. It was clear that there was an intense battle.

Lei Yang's heart immediately moved, because after observing the tomb's secret realm for a few days, he concluded that any place where there was a battle would have treasures appearing, because only by fighting over the treasures, would there be conflicts among cultivators, causing an intense battle.

He didn't rush into the valley, but slowly climbed up a short mountain and looked down. Suddenly, the entire scene in the valley entered his eyes.

This valley was just as Lei Yang had expected, not very big. At the bottom of the valley was a flat piece of land devoid of any gra.s.s. At the center of the valley, ten cultivators were engaged in an intense battle.

It was a very chaotic scene, and the fighting was also very fierce. There were even quite a few cultivators who fell around the desert. Some were heavily injured, some had already died, and the scene was b.l.o.o.d.y and tragic.

But from the way they were fighting each other, it seemed as if they were both trying so hard not to let each other get too close to the center of the sand.

And at the center of the desert, when Lei Yang looked over, he saw a group of blood red light.

The light continued to s.h.i.+ne, and the surrounding cultivators continued to weave their sword techniques. Their shadows swayed, making it difficult for him to see what exactly was within the blood-red light.
