Cultivating Immortality in the Winter Wasteland.

Chapter 865 Thunder Runes
Chen Wang benefited greatly from this insight, and his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds.

The most important thing is the improvement of his primordial spirit and physical body, both of which have become extremely solid.

Now that Chen Wang has survived the tribulation lightning, his primordial spirit can even withstand tribulations on its own after leaving his body. It's worth noting that he would have been severely injured by just one strike of that terrifying purple-gold tribulation lightning.
With just three strikes, Chen Wang wouldn't even have a chance to escape; he would be instantly killed!
Although Chen Wang's primordial spirit was resilient, it was still somewhat inferior to his physical body.

Now things are different. Chen Wang's primordial spirit is much stronger, and his cultivation has greatly increased. He can now activate several magic treasures more and more at will.

He felt a surge of joy and returned to the Thunder Swamp.

This time, Chen Wang appeared directly deep within the Great Swamp, the very place he had left before.

Chen Wang's heart stirred, and he subconsciously circulated his magic power to resist, but no lightning tribulation struck down.

The sky was filled with thick, heavy dark clouds, which made Chen Wang feel very oppressed.

However, Chen Wang felt a sense of familiarity upon arriving in this world entirely composed of lightning, perhaps because he had been struck by lightning so many times.

Suddenly, Chen Wang noticed a strong aura of ferocity. Behind him, two pairs of blood-moon-like eyes appeared, which were extremely terrifying.

Chen Wang turned his head and saw a world-destroying bolt of lightning strike him directly from behind.

Chen Wang was startled and tried his best to defend himself. His body was pushed backward by the impact, and his clothes were torn to shreds, leaving him naked and revealing his powerful muscles.

At this moment, Chen Wang's primordial spirit was also shaken, and his body was constantly being pushed back by the lightning!
In other words, since his physical body and primordial spirit had been enhanced previously, the lightning that was defended by his Dao power could not harm him.

Chen Wang was repeatedly thrown backward before he could finally see the giant beast clearly.

This is a Qilin, but its body is so enormous that it gives people a great sense of oppression when it lies on the ground.

Chen Wang was startled when he looked into its blood-moon-like eyes.

The thunderous beasts here are very realistic, but this one is a little different; it feels completely real.

At this moment, it suddenly opened its huge mouth, and another world-destroying bolt of lightning shot out.

Chen Wang summoned the Thirty-Three Heavens Golden Exquisite Pagoda. He knew that the ferocious beast in front of him was determined to kill him, and he also wanted to test the results of his cultivation during this period.

At this moment, Chen Wang summoned his magic weapon, the Thirty-Three Heavens Golden Exquisite Pagoda, which quickly grew to over a hundred feet tall and smashed down fiercely.

But now, this tower is nothing to this Qilin; it is extremely small.

However, after the Golden Exquisite Pagoda slammed down on it, the Qilin's head was immediately smashed open, and its Dao blood flowed out, crystal clear.

Chen Wang's gaze sharpened.
"This one seems quite different from the previous thunderous behemoth. Could it really be real?"

At this moment, Chen Wang once again summoned the Thirty-Three Heavens Exquisite Pagoda and smashed it down fiercely.

This time, flames filled the golden tower, instantly reducing the head of the thunderous beast to ashes, followed by its body.

At this moment, Chen Wang's magical power surged to its peak, instantly unleashing two more layers of power from the Thirty-Three Heavens Golden Exquisite Pagoda.

With only a 20% increase in power, it directly killed the terrifying behemoth that Chen Wang was previously unable to defeat!
Finally, its body shattered and returned to the world, transforming into the Great Path of Thunder.

"Um!?"

Chen Wang's heart stirred. He saw that the moment the giant beast shattered, a rune was contained within its body. Chen Wang couldn't describe the rune, but he felt that it contained endless lightning magic, which made people unconsciously become immersed in it.

Chen Wang wanted to memorize the terrifying thunder runes, but the runes seemed to have a life of their own, tearing apart his consciousness and erasing the memory.

Chen Wang coughed up blood repeatedly, his face pale, as if he had been hit hard with a sledgehammer.

He was somewhat shocked at this moment.
"There are some very subtle laws within this. Is this the Law of Thunder? But even ordinary Laws of Thunder shouldn't be this violent." Many thoughts flashed through Chen Wang's mind. There must be something in this great swamp with power beyond the Tribulation Transcending stage.

He took a deep breath, wanting to explore the place thoroughly.

Wind and fire wheels appeared beneath his feet, the Taiwei Palace appeared behind him, and he held the Thirty-Three Heavens Golden Exquisite Pagoda in his palm. The Yin-Yang Dao Book floated in front of him, and the Mirror God was on his shoulder.

He unleashed his five great weapons and became fully armed.

This time, Chen Wang did not find the purple tribulation lightning that could improve him as before.

Although that kind of tribulation lightning is terrifyingly destructive, and ordinary people in the tribulation stage would be struck dead if they were touched by it, as long as you can withstand it, the special Dao power contained in it can change your primordial spirit and physical body.

But now these things have no power other than destruction.

Chen Wang was surprised. Soon, he saw another giant thunderous beast, which seemed to have crawled out of the swamp.

It was surrounded by constant lightning, its eyes were purple, and its breath was accompanied by terrifying lightning.

Beneath it lies a vast swamp, formed from the fusion of thunder and lightning, within which countless bubbles rise and fall, resembling individual worlds.

As soon as the terrifying beast crawled out, an aura of unparalleled ferocity spread out, causing Chen Wang's heart to pound wildly.

"The deeper you go into the Thunder Swamp, the more realistic the thunderous beasts become, the stronger they are, and the more ferocious their aura becomes."

The previous one had already increased Chen Wang's pressure, but the one in front of him was even more imposing. Judging from its aura alone, Chen Wang found that it was comparable to the Lord of Yangtian and the Lord of Youdu, and even stronger.

Chen Wang was somewhat surprised.

Jiang Yu and Liu Dunhuang are not ordinary Tribulation Transcending stage experts; they are experts capable of besieging a Celestial Venerable.

The thunderous behemoth that appeared at this moment was a Pixiu.

At this moment, it opened its big mouth, and Chen Wang immediately activated the Yin-Yang Dao Book. The Yin-Yang Dao Book can interfere with the cause and effect of all living beings. At this moment, strands of silk spread out and finally gathered in the depths of Thunder Swamp!
The Yin-Yang Daoist Book discovered a terrifying existence deep within the Great Swamp, a discovery that caused even the Yin-Yang Daoist Book to tremble.

Immediately, two Tai Chi fish, one black and one white, appeared behind the Yin-Yang Dao Book, affecting the Pixiu in front of it.

At this moment, the Pixiu opened its big mouth and swallowed Chen Wang and the magic weapon into its belly!
Even with Chen Wang activating his Wind and Fire Wheels, he couldn't match its speed.

After being swallowed, Chen Wang saw nothing but terrifying lightning, with bolts of lightning laws surrounding him.

Chen Wang activated the Taiwei Palace to suppress the power of thunder, and then activated the Thirty-Three Heavens Golden Exquisite Pagoda, smashing it out fiercely.

However, this time, even the usually powerful and domineering Thirty-Three Heavens Golden Exquisite Pagoda failed to work.

The space seemed almost illusory. When the attack was thrown, it missed the enemy and landed in empty space. Instead, the recoil made Chen Wang feel a tightness in his chest.

Chen Wang was astonished: "What is this place?!" There must be another world inside this Pixiu.

At this moment, Chen Wang activated the Thirty-Three Heavens Exquisite Pagoda but did not get any effect, so he immediately put the pagoda away and then activated the Taiwei Palace.

Taiwei Palace possesses immense suppressive power, but this place is surrounded by terrifying lightning, so Taiwei Palace couldn't exert any effect.

Chen Wang reacted quickly, putting away the Taiwei Palace and the Wind and Fire Wheels, and activating the Yin-Yang Dao Book.

The Yin-Yang Daoist book does address this situation, with two Tai Chi fish, one black and one white, appearing.

The surrounding lightning seemed to have solidified, ceasing its flow!

Chen Wang tried to discern the laws contained within this lightning, but to no avail.
A terrifying burst of lightning suddenly erupted, even stinging Chen Wang's eyes and bringing tears to his eyes.

Chen Wang was startled.

In that brief moment, he seemed to have observed some kind of thunder rune, which was slightly different from the previous one. The Mirror God, standing to the side, felt a chill run down his spine. He always put Chen Wang first, and since Chen Wang couldn't break through the current situation, he didn't have any good solutions either.

Chen Wang activated the Yin-Yang Dao Book again, but at the same time, he also activated two divine and demonic masks, and the divine and demonic energies converged behind him.

After activating the Yin-Yang Dao Book, the terrifying thunder runes reappeared. This time, the two divine and demonic faces behind him twisted violently, but Chen Wang finally grasped the mystery of these runes and memorized them deeply.

The Yin-Yang Daoist book flipped through its pages rapidly, the Yin-Yang fish spinning continuously, finally transforming into a stream of light that whooshed back into Chen Wang's sea of ​​consciousness, where it began to operate quietly, clearly indicating that it had been injured.

Chen Wang was surprised.

"What exactly is this rune? Why is it so terrifying?"

Later, even the two divine and demonic faces couldn't withstand it. Without the Yin-Yang Dao Book to suppress them, these thunderous runes were extremely domineering and directly destroyed the divine and demonic energies behind his head.

Fortunately, Chen Wang had already deeply imprinted the appearance of that rune into his mind.

This time, he wasn't erased by that coercive force. Unfortunately, he didn't last long. Chen Wang tried hard to recall, but he still couldn't remember.

Chen Wang sighed somewhat.

"Isn't this kind of rune something I can currently control?"

At this moment, Chen Wang felt a terrifying force of annihilation assail him, carrying destructive power.
Chen Wang's heart sank.
"Am I going to be reduced to ashes by entering the belly of this thunderous behemoth?"

He took a deep breath and looked at the Mirror God, saying, "Stop the surrounding lightning, I'll find a way to break the formation."

Upon receiving the instruction, the Mirror God shouted and activated its full power, acting like a master undergoing tribulation, able to do as it pleased without Chen Wang needing to mobilize his magic.
At this moment, the Mirror God blazed with white light, directly suppressing the surrounding lightning.

It couldn't have done this before, but like Chen Wang, it has undergone a baptism and is now even more powerful.

Chen Wang didn't need to focus on controlling the Mirror God. At this moment, he fully activated the Divine and Demonic Qi, which transformed into a giant pair of scissors, indestructible and capable of cutting through anything. With a sudden snap, the scissors were blocked by the void, leaving the Thunder Dao unharmed.

Chen Wang sighed.

There was nothing they could do; they had exhausted all means, but still couldn't subdue this thunderous behemoth.

With a thought, Chen Wang activated the bronze door.

The bronze door had a remarkable effect on this; in a flash, Chen Wang vanished without a trace.

The thunderous behemoth suddenly stopped.

Chen Wang quickly turned back, returning from the depths of winter to the Thunder Swamp, and reappeared at the previous location.
He could sense a terrifying aura rushing toward him from afar, its sound like thunder, its momentum startling Lei Ze.

Within the Thunder Swamp, divine sense cannot see very far. As far as Chen Wang could see, he discovered that the Pixiu from before was attacking him again.

This time, the Pixiu opened its huge mouth, and Chen Wang activated the Wind and Fire Wheels with all his might. With the help of this magic weapon, he barely managed to stay on the edge of being swallowed up and finally escaped that terrifying suction force.

Chen Wang finally escaped; the power of that swallow was truly astounding!
Chen Wang was also feeling a chill run down his spine. He wanted to explore this place, but if he couldn't get rid of this giant beast, he would be swallowed by it sooner or later, and once swallowed, he would have to start all over again.

Chen Wang was speechless, feeling like he had encountered an invincible boss and could only keep reloading and starting over.

Chen Wang thought to himself, "It can't be hurt inside, but what about outside?"

He activated the Golden Pagoda of the Thirty-Three Heavens, and the magical artifact shone brightly as it slammed down on the Pixiu.

The Pixiu opened its huge mouth and swallowed it whole.
Chen Wang's heart sank: "This is bad."

He wanted to take back the Thirty-Three Heavens Golden Pagoda, but found himself helpless.

Chen Wang gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, "You'd better be able to swallow my magic weapon first."

He immediately activated his magic weapon, and in an instant, purple flames spread and burned inside the monster's body.

Unfortunately, it seemed to have a special space inside its belly, and no matter how fierce the purple fire surged, it could not find any flaws.

Seeing this, Chen Wang's killing intent surged even more. The Wind and Fire Wheels beneath his feet suddenly changed, leaving a long trail of flame. Chen Wang charged directly towards the Pixiu, urging his divine and demonic energies to transform into a large pair of scissors. With a snap, he cut two-thirds of the Pixiu's neck.

"Roar!"

The Pixiu let out a sharp, low roar, and Chen Wang's consciousness felt somewhat scattered; his primordial spirit was about to be shattered by its roar.

However, Chen Wang was also extremely ruthless at this moment. He mobilized the Mirror God, which shone a white light with all its might. The Pixiu's body immediately froze. Chen Wang once again activated the Divine Demon Scissors, and with a snap, he cut off the Pixiu's head, instantly separating its head from its body!

Chen Wang's combat power was extremely strong, and with the help of these powerful magic treasures, he was invincible. At this moment, the Pixiu collapsed with a crash and quickly transformed into pure thunderous energy.

Chen Wang tried hard to capture the rune that appeared after it transformed into lightning. Although he managed to observe some signs this time, the rune was too high-level and immediately disappeared from Chen Wang's sea of ​​consciousness.
No matter how hard Chen Wang tried to recall, he couldn't remember.

After the giant beast transformed into a thunderous path, the Thirty-Three Heavens Exquisite Pagoda flew back into Chen Wang's palm.
Chen Wang breathed a sigh of relief. If they had lost this magic weapon, this exploration would have been a huge loss.

Seeing that he couldn't learn the rune no matter what, Chen Wang felt a surge of competitive spirit.
His original comprehension was just average, but after being empowered by the power of faith from all the heavens, it has now become terrifying. Yet he can't remember these runes at all, how can he not be furious!
Chen Wang had already guessed that his biggest gain from entering this place would probably be this rune. Once he mastered its study, its power would be absolutely astonishing.

Chen Wang continued to explore further without encountering any lightning tribulations.

They had ventured so far that they were still surrounded by a world of thunder and swamp!
"This Thunder Swamp is huge!" Chen Wang exclaimed in surprise.

From the outside, the scale doesn't seem particularly impressive, but once you go inside, you realize that it's completely boundless and endless!
