Zhu Tian: Becoming a Sword Master from Martial Arts

Chapter 289

In the Thunder Emperor's Cave, Lin Dong, who had endured several months of endurance and had finally withstood a hundred thousand thunderbolts, had no idea that there were many people outside, waiting to watch his performance.

At this moment, Lin Dong felt his entire body numb. There were a total of 100,000 thunderbolts, each one stronger than the last, which directly numbed Lin Dong.

Fortunately, although the process was a bit embarrassing, the result is still quite satisfactory.

After refining the Thunder Ancestral Talisman, Lin Dong leaped directly from the peak of the Great Accomplishment of the Life Profound Realm to the realm of Half-Step Death Profound Realm, and was only half a step away from the Small Accomplishment of the Death Profound Realm.

Of course, compared to the breakthrough in his Yuan power, Lin Dong’s physical body is infinitely stronger. With just his Yuan power and physical body, Lin Dong is enough to crush many powerful men who have reached the minor success stage of the Death Profound Realm.

That punch had the power of 100,000 thunderbolts, which a normal Death Profound Realm minor success expert could not withstand at all.

Lin Dong’s mental strength also improved a lot, and he directly reached the realm of the Great Success of Immortal Talisman Master. Although he was only at the initial stage of the Great Success of Immortal Talisman Master, he was not someone that a strong man at the Small Success stage of the Death Profound Realm could contend with.

Coupled with the power of the two ancestral talismans, the Thunder Emperor's Scepter in his hand, and pure essence treasures such as the Burning Heaven Cauldron, Lin Dong's strength is more than enough to fight against a powerful person who has reached the perfection of the Death Profound Realm.

If he tried his best, with Lin Dong's current means and strength, even the strong men in the Wheel-Turning Realm would have a headache.

This is because, most geniuses like Lin Dong who fight above their level cannot withstand attacks from that realm. In other words, they can reach that realm purely because their attacks are extremely impressive even in the realm of the Wheel-Turning Realm.

The power of the Thunder Ancestral Talisman and the weirdness of the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, coupled with the power of a full-strength attack from the Great Desolate Sutra and the Blue Sky Dragon Art, are so great that even a strong man in the Wheel of Time is unwilling to take it head-on.

"Yes, you have finally escaped from the situation of an ant."

Yan's laughter echoed in Lin Dong's heart, making Lin Dong feel quite unconvinced. However, before Lin Dong could open his mouth, he heard Yan continue to speak.

"Now, facing the powerful Devil Prison, you are barely a grasshopper that can jump for a while. I guess, after you truly advance to the Wheel-Revolving Realm, Devil Prison will send out real strong men to deal with you. Come on, I'm rooting for you!"

Lin Dong was speechless upon hearing this, it was indeed as Yan said, now he was just a grasshopper that could barely jump in front of the Demon Prison. The Demon Prison had always dealt with him as a side job, and the real strong ones were sent to deal with the Sword Saint, Moro, Bo Xuan and others.

However, this is also a huge improvement. Now he is only one realm away from the real Wheel-Turning Realm, which is the Death Profound Realm.

At least, facing a force like Yuanmen, Lin Dong can be said to be no longer afraid and has the strength to fight.

Moreover, compared to these, Lin Dong has one more trump card, that is the Thunder Emperor.

With the help of Lin Xuan, the remnant soul of the Thunder Emperor has been temporarily stabilized. If he gets a treasure in the future, he can slowly repair it. Although it may take decades, it is not a big problem.

Although the current Thunder Emperor is unable to take action for the time being, he is already able to guide Lin Dong. To put it bluntly, he has a soul that possesses the combat awareness and insight of the Samsara Realm. Even when facing a strong man in the Wheel-Turning Realm, Lin Dong will not always be controlled by others.

Thunder Emperor is different from Yan. Although Yan is the spirit of the ancestral stone and can exert considerable power in his heyday, Yan relies on the power of the ancestral stone. To put it bluntly, he himself does not have many things such as perception that match the realm of reincarnation.

However, the Thunder Emperor is a genuine powerful person in the realm of reincarnation, and he is also the previous controller of the Thunder Ancestral Talisman.

If a critical moment really comes, Thunder Emperor can secretly guide Lin Dong in fighting. Even at the critical moment, Thunder Emperor can use his own residual soul to help Lin Dong activate the Thunder Ancestral Talisman and use the true power of the Ancestral Talisman.

"Senior Thunder Emperor, how do you feel?"

After thinking of the Thunder Emperor, Lin Dong couldn't help but sink his mind into the ancestral stone and asked softly. Soon, the voice of the Thunder Emperor also sounded in Lin Dong's mind.

"Haha, it feels good. I haven't felt this kind of soul power that won't dissipate for many years."

The tone of Thunder Emperor was also quite emotional. Back then, when their Thunder Mansion was attacked by the alien demons from the Demon Prison, he was at the critical moment of breaking through to the Samsara Realm, resulting in almost all the people in the Thunder Mansion being slaughtered by that alien demon king.

The Thunder Emperor, in a rage, was determined to fight to the death with the alien demon king, and even forcibly closed the Thunder Palace.

In that battle, even if the Demon King really wiped out the Thunder Emperor completely, he would definitely be trapped in the Thunder Palace for a long time, and might even be wiped out by the countless thunder forces from the outside world.

To put it bluntly, before the war, the Thunder Emperor turned the entire Thunder Palace into an isolated dead world. Once he lost, no living creature would be able to set foot in this sea of ​​thunder. Even if they really went deep into the depths of the Thunder Sea and came to the outside of the Thunder Palace, they would not be able to open the Thunder Palace.

Unless the strength of the person coming is far superior to that of the Thunder Emperor, he can forcibly break the seal cast by the Thunder Emperor, and thus enter the Thunder Palace and rescue the alien demon king.

Otherwise, even if the Thunder Emperor did not suppress the Demon King, he would definitely make the Demon King half-dead and then trapped in the Thunder Palace. Moreover, because of the existence of thunder power and the power of the Thunder Ancestral Talisman, it would be impossible for the Demon King to recover from his injuries without thousands of years.

That is to say, Thunder Emperor won in the end, so he released the key and waited for the strong men from Tianxuan Continent to come and eliminate the alien demons. The residual soul that Thunder Emperor sealed himself could help and forcibly eliminate the alien demon king.

However, not long ago, everything that happened in the last thunder world made Thunder Emperor feel like a dream, and everything seemed so unreal.

The Demon Prison and the Alien Demons, who have always been known for their power and weirdness, were destroyed so easily. Moreover, the Demon Prison sent such powerful reinforcements, including a true king who had survived two reincarnation tribulations, a false king, and four Alien Demon Generals. However, with such a large-scale attack, not only did they fail to rescue the Alien Demon King, but they also almost wiped out the entire army.

Not only that, the Thunder Emperor, who was originally ready to dissipate, miraculously preserved his remaining soul and even had the possibility of resurrection. He only needed to wait for a few decades.

This made Thunder Emperor extremely emotional, and at the same time, a hint of sadness flashed through his heart.

He was lucky enough to survive, but all his old brothers had already...

The devil's prison, the alien demons, everything, is all because of this group of demon cubs full of destruction and evil!
"The Sword Saint's methods are truly extraordinary. He is worthy of being praised by the Spirit of the Ancestral Stone. He is the best person since ancient times!"

After suppressing all these thoughts one by one, Thunder Emperor couldn't help but sigh softly. That method was indeed unheard of, and it amazed even him.

"That guy's methods are indeed becoming more and more sophisticated, especially after the battle in the Demon City, he has become even more mysterious and unpredictable."

Not only was Thunder Emperor shocked, even Yan felt incredible. You know, for someone like Thunder Emperor, who only had a little bit of soul left, even Fu Zu, the Lord of Life and Death, or even the Eight Lords of the Ancients could not bring him back to life. But now, Lin Xuan actually did it. Although it was not a one-time cure, it would take a little longer, but it was also a method that shocked the world.

This can be said to be a true case of life and death. A person whose soul is about to dissipate can be said to be a truly dead person, but in the end he was rescued.

"By the way, the little girl from the Immortal Holy Whale Clan seems to have an unusual identity."

Thunder Emperor seemed to remember something and spoke again. After Thunder Emperor's reminder, Yan's expression became strange and he nodded slightly in response.

"Yes, Mu Lingshan also gave me a very strange feeling."

"No, it's not just Mu Lingshan that makes me feel weird. Even Sword Saint, Mu Feng and the others have a particularly weird attitude towards Mu Lingshan."

Yan said while stroking his chin and frowning, Lin Dong simply kept silent, these things were not topics that could be discussed by a little fellow like him who had not yet fully stepped into the Profound Death Realm.

Thunder Emperor frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke softly.

"For some reason, that little girl gave me the same feeling as when I first came into contact with the spirit of the Thunder Ancestral Talisman."

"The spirit of the ancestral talisman?"

Lin Dong was stunned for a moment, then shut up. He knew about the spirit of the ancestral talisman, but unfortunately, he was too weak now and could not come into contact with the spirit of the ancestral talisman at all, so he did not understand what this feeling was.

"The spirit of the ancestral talisman!"

Compared to Lin Dong, Yan's reaction was much greater. His eyes widened instantly and his expression was a little dazed. After a while, he showed a look of sudden enlightenment and muttered to himself.

"I understand, I understand!"

"Yan, what do you understand?"

Lin Dong looked at Yan who was making riddles, and couldn't help but ask curiously. A special look flashed across Thunder Emperor's face, as if he had thought of something, but it quickly flashed away. He wanted to catch it, but couldn't.

“Lin Dong, do you remember that you once told me that when you first met Mu Lingshan, the Devouring Ancestral Talisman in your body had a slight movement?”

Yan did not answer Lin Dong's question immediately, but asked Lin Dong a question in return. Lin Dong nodded subconsciously when he heard it. Lin Dong still remembered this matter. After all, it involved the ancestral talisman, so Lin Dong specifically told Yan about it at that time.

"That's right. You should have heard that the Lord of Life and Death came from the Immortal Holy Whale Clan, right? And you should also know the relationship between the Life and Death Ancestral Talisman and the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, right?"

Facing Yan's question, Lin Dong became more and more confused, and nodded slightly in reply.

"Of course I know this. The Life and Death Ancestral Talisman is the last of the eight ancestral talismans to be born. It was the Devouring Ancestral Talisman that took it into its body and devoured its energy to help the Life and Death Ancestral Talisman grow."

When Lei Di heard this, his eyes widened and he couldn't help but reveal an interested expression, his ears pricked up quietly, he really didn't know much about this kind of ancient gossip.

"That's right. So, there is an induction between the Devouring Ancestral Talisman and the Life and Death Ancestral Talisman. To be precise, there is an induction between the eight ancestral talismans, but the induction between the Life and Death Ancestral Talisman and the Devouring Ancestral Talisman is the strongest, and it is also the easiest to affect the controller of the ancestral talisman."

As Yan spoke, he couldn't help but chuckle twice. Lin Dong immediately widened his eyes and said.

"So, in ancient times, the unclear relationship between the Lord of Devouring and the Lord of Life and Death was due to the special connection between the Ancestral Symbols?"

Thunder Emperor didn't say a word, but he looked very interested. Oh, it was the love story between the eight ancient masters. It was interesting, very interesting.

"Ahem, I guess so. Anyway, the Devouring Ancestral Talisman is very closely connected to the Life and Death Ancestral Talisman. So, at that time, you almost subconsciously believed Mu Lingshan, because she is very likely the real body of the Life and Death Ancestral Talisman!"

"The true form of the Ancestral Talisman of Life and Death!"

"How can this be!"

The exclamations of Thunder Emperor and Lin Dong were heard one after another, while Yan showed an unfathomable expression and chuckled.

"Of course it's possible, because that is the Ancestral Talisman of Life and Death, the Ancestral Talisman that is most proficient in the power of life and death. Moreover, before the Lord of Life and Death escaped into reincarnation, he specially returned to the ancestral land."

"Also, don't forget that the coffin lid of life and death in Mu Lingshan's hand is a divine object. Even if it is just a coffin lid, not everyone can easily control it. But Mu Lingshan has obviously not refined it, but she can control it as if it were her own arm. Don't you think there is a problem?"

After hearing Yan's words, Lin Dong also realized that something was wrong. Yes, divine objects like the Xiang Zushi and the Coffin of Life and Death were not something that anyone could control. One had to either get the approval of the divine object or refine it.

Lin Dong was able to control the ancestral stone because he accidentally refined it. Lin Xuan, on the other hand, was an extremely gifted person who had been recognized by the divine creature.

Mu Lingshan has not refined the Coffin of Life and Death, but she can control the lid of the coffin. There must be only one reason for this: she has been recognized by the Coffin of Life and Death. However, she is not a peerless evildoer like Lin Xuan. There is only one possibility for her to be recognized by the lid of the coffin of life and death: she is related to the Lord of Life and Death.

The Lord of Life and Death passed away in the Immortal Holy Whale Clan and left the Ancestral Talisman of Life and Death in the Immortal Holy Whale Clan. In addition, Mu Feng and others valued Mu Lingshan, and Lin Xuan and others treated Mu Lingshan with great attitude.

"Hiss! Lingshan is actually the incarnation of the ancestral talisman? This..."

Lin Dong felt extremely surprised that the Ancestral Talisman, a divine object of heaven and earth, could actually transform into a human form. No, not into a human form, but into a real living being!

Yes, a real living being. After being in contact with her for such a long time, Lin Dong can be sure that Mu Lingshan definitely has the flesh and blood of a living being. She is a real, ancient immortal holy whale with extremely pure bloodline!

It is true that Mu Lingshan is the flesh and blood of the Lord of Life and Death, a living being transformed by the ancestral symbol of life and death. Her bloodline is naturally extremely noble. Although it is not as good as that of the Lord of Life and Death, it is definitely a top bloodline.
