Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 243: Void Escape, Thunder Repair Platform

Sure enough, after another three months of waiting, the ancestor of the Xie family finally appeared again.

He pulled Wei Zhong away quickly, leaving Shan Gu with no time to say a word. He could only sigh as he watched the two of them go away.

Wei Zhong was completely surrounded by golden lightning, and the nearby scenery quickly retreated.

"What a fast lightning escape technique!"

Hearing this, Xie Yuanping chuckled.

"This is what I got by refining a unique type of lightning. Apart from other advantages, this lightning is very fast. With this type of lightning, my speed of escape is the best among those of the same level..."

Listening to Xie Yuanping's boasting, I also heard him ask:

"I see that the thunder seed you refined is also quite good. What are its characteristics?"

Wei Zhong replied:

"The type of thunder that I refined is called the Sky-Smashing Divine Thunder, and it was captured from the space cracks above the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range..."

Hearing this, Xie Yuanping turned back in surprise:
"Void attribute?"

Wei Zhong nodded:

"It's a pity that my cultivation is too shallow and I can't bring out its characteristics yet."

The latter uttered two hisses:
"Just wait for your good fortune, boy. The void-attributed thunder seed is not a simple commodity. Even for a Divine Transformation cultivator like me, it is a very rare thing.

"It seems that those two old fellows, Hongxu and Baiheng, had planned to allow the thunder to remain in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range."

When Wei Zhong heard this, he was even more surprised and suspicious.

Xie Yuanping also explained:
"There is a void lightning seed, but the two old guys didn't go to take it. They are probably waiting for my Jie family to join the game. Whether it is me or the Yuanying juniors in the clan, once they refine this lightning seed, they must take responsibility."

At this point, he looked at Wei Zhong:
"Come to think of it, why did those two allow you to refine that thunder seed?"

Wei Zhong broke out in a cold sweat, and the sudden speculation made him feel uneasy.

Recalling the difficulty of refining the thunder seeds, I couldn't help but think:
"Is it impossible for this thunder seed to be refined by an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator?

"If it weren't for the Thunder Dragon's help, I would have failed nine times out of ten. Even if Yu Si came prepared, he might not succeed. Are those two waiting for the Jie family cultivator who is very familiar with the Thunder Seed?

"In the end, I got intercepted halfway, so I just took advantage of the situation and ended up in the current situation?"

Wei Zhong replied:

“I don’t know, maybe there is a special connection between the Seven Apertures Thunder Technique and the Thunder Seed.”

“That’s true. With the seven orifices of thunder power, my body is a natural cage that restrains thunder seeds. Naturally, I am much stronger than other cultivators in refining thunder seeds.

"It is a great opportunity for you to obtain this Heaven-Smashing Divine Thunder. After you become a spirit, you may be able to quickly master the secret of Void Escape."

Wei Zhong was also aroused with curiosity upon hearing this:

"Senior Jie, do you know how to escape into the void?"

The latter laughed and said:
"Of course I will, otherwise I would have lived like a dog for the past thousand years. Now I'll let you see it for yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them sped up suddenly. Wei Zhong felt dizzy and could only see that the two of them had entered a dark place. When they saw the light again, the surrounding environment had changed drastically.

"It escaped about ten miles away," Xie Yuanping commented calmly.

Wei Zhong looked around, wondering:
"Ten miles, how many breaths of time?"

No wonder the Thunder Dragon admires this Void Escape Technique so much, as it surpasses 99% of the escape techniques in this world.

Seeing Wei Zhong's dazed look, Xie Yuanping was very satisfied.

He stroked his beard and continued:

"This escape technique is not difficult. The most important things are two: first, breaking through the weak void of the human world, and second, preserving one's own body in the broken space. Controlling the direction and distance of escape are secondary.

"You have the Thunder Seed, and once your cultivation level is raised, it won't be difficult to break through space.

"Secondly, fourth-level body cultivators like me have extraordinary resistance to this kind of ethereal flight. If an ordinary spiritual practitioner were to be carried by me for such a short time, he would be dizzy for dozens of breaths, or even faint to death."

Wei Zhong understood. Although he had felt dizzy just now, it only lasted for two or three breaths at most.

"Isn't this somewhat similar to traveling through a teleportation array?"

"Hey, you have seen a teleportation array. The few remaining arrays in my human world are quite rare...

"But what you said is not bad. The higher the cultivator's cultivation, the stronger his physique, the more powerful his spiritual power, and the higher his resistance to this.

"And the longer the distance of the void transmission, the more so. It is rumored that there are some unique void treasures in the human world that can protect low-level cultivators from passing through long-distance transmission arrays, but I have never seen such things..."

Wei Zhong opened up about the void escape technique, and Xie Yuanping also generously shared his own experiences.

"Then in my human world, are there any long-distance teleportation arrays that span a state or even several states?"

The latter nodded:
"Of course there are. My Xie family has half of it, which is connected to the Western Desert. But the price of using it is at least five top-grade spirit stones at a time."

Wei Zhong was stunned. The requirements for using this teleportation array were beyond his imagination.

With Wei Zhong's current wealth, he has a lot of spirit stones, but there are only a few top-grade spirit stones.

Not to mention the best-grade spirit stones, there aren't many high-grade spirit stones in hand.

Xie Yuanping continued:

"Regardless of the top-grade spirit stone, if you are not a Nascent Soul or a fourth-level body cultivator, you will die if you embark on the journey of teleportation. The more mediocre the cultivation, the greater the price you will pay after teleportation.

"Only for cultivators like us who have reached the state of Divine Transformation, the price can be slightly lower."

To impart knowledge to Wei Zhong, the two had already crossed countless spiritual islands and seas, and finally came to a special place where thunderstorms gathered.

Wei Zhong looked at the seven water tornadoes swirling up not far away and felt a little horrified. Each of them was enough to tear apart a cultivator below the Nascent Soul stage.

It's a Jedi.

Even if you are a Nascent Soul, you cannot stay there for too long, otherwise you will fall into danger due to exhaustion of spiritual energy.

"This is where my Xie family's Thunder Pond is located. Unfortunately, it has been abandoned since my Xie family did not appear to cultivate the fourth-level "Seven Aperture Thunder Art"."

There was regret and emotion in Xie Yuanping's words, and then he looked at Wei Zhong with eagerness.

Such a look made Wei Zhong instinctively feel a little uneasy, and he began to question whether he should continue to follow his pace.

"My Lord, this is a great place!"

The voice of Lei Long was heard within the treasure record, causing Wei Zhong to suppress himself again.

"Practicing the Seven Apertures Thunder Art here can increase the speed of practice by several times. There seems to be a high-level spiritual vein on the seabed. Even if I practice spiritual arts, I can do it simultaneously without any delay!"

Wei Zhong admitted that he was somewhat moved.

Now, for Wei Zhong, the most important thing is his cultivation. As long as he can improve his cultivation to the peak of the Nascent Soul or even the Spiritualization level one day earlier.

In this human world, I will be invincible.

Even the so-called demon rebellion is nothing more than a bunch of chickens and dogs and can be easily repelled under this kind of refining cultivation that is beyond the capacity of this world.

"As long as the cultivation level can be improved!"

Seeing the eagerness in Wei Zhong's eyes, Xie Yuanping felt that his plan was brilliant.

Nothing is easier to attract talent than offering benefits directly. Marriage, master-disciple relationship? None of them are as stable as this kind of benefit binding.

During this nearly one year, Xie Yuanping did not just waste time in this forbidden place.

Instead, he found out most of Wei Zhong's information through his own connections.

"He was born as a casual cultivator, and he practiced both the Dharma and the body, both of which were at the fourth level. He has fourth-level alchemy and weapon refining skills, and can be said to be an extraordinary genius. More importantly, he values ​​friendship.

"The maid I brought with me during the foundation-building period has not been abandoned even now that I am in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. Instead, I paid a huge price and forcibly brought her to the Core Formation stage.

"Such a person, with such behavior, cannot possibly be described as heartless and disloyal.

"To put it another way, let's talk about deeds rather than intentions. Even if Wei Zhong didn't give him any status, the resources he invested alone are enough to show that he is a true gentleman in terms of 'behavior'.

"Be it hypocrisy or nostalgia! Such an attitude is enough to make friends with him.

"If we allow them to take such actions, will the Xie family suffer losses in the future?

"Perhaps, if the situation is very positive, I still have hope of accepting this disciple?"

Xie Yuanping pulled Wei Zhong's arm:
"Come on, I will show you the forbidden area of ​​my Xie family."

Before Wei Zhong could say a word, he was taken into the stormy sea, and a hexagonal stone platform that was a hundred feet wide appeared before him.

It is covered with dense spiritual patterns and there are faint flashes of lightning.

Seeing this scene, Lei Long couldn't help but speak out:

"The Thunder Repairing Platform at Tianyin Thunder Mountain? I didn't expect there is a previous one in this lower world!"

Upon hearing this, Wei Zhong's Nascent Soul could not help but grab the Time Treasure Record:
"You, the Thunder Dragon, know a lot. Are there many things you are hiding from me?"

The latter said:
"My Lord, you misunderstood. I was just a little curious about this Lei Xiutai and wanted to know which one was stronger than my Lei Chi. So I tried it out and got some understanding..."

Lei Long explained reluctantly.

Wei Zhong continued to ask:

"Oh, how does that compare?"

The latter replied with some pride:

"Of course it is not as good as the Thunder Pool that is filled with the power of the law. However, this Thunder Cultivation Platform is also quite good. Especially the higher the level of Thunder Cultivation Platform, it can be called the absolute holy place for those who cultivate the Thunder Body.

"Although this place only looks like a fourth-level building, it is enough for adults to use."

Xie Yuanping floated in the air with Wei Zhong, and performed seals with his hands, which turned into runes and hit the runes on the surface of Lei Xiutai.

The spiritual patterns of the latter's formation slowly lit up, and thunder sounded in the sky simultaneously.

Wei Zhong looked up and saw a silver lightning falling.

Once there is one, there will be a second and a third. In the blink of an eye, this Lei Xiu platform is filled with endless thunder and lightning.

It formed a thunder pool floating on the upper surface of the sea.

The mighty power of heaven emerged simultaneously, causing Wei Zhong to feel frightened.

He wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.

'The power of this thunder pool is almost the same as when I went through the fourth level thunder tribulation. If an ordinary Yuanying spiritual cultivator falls into it, he will probably become a pile of dry bones in a few hundred breaths.'

Xie Yuanping beside him murmured:
“Fortunately, a hundred years have passed, and I still haven’t forgotten this method.

"Come, I will take you for a walk in this thunder pond."

Golden lightning spread around him, and Wei Zhong's thunder power was stimulated by it and began to operate autonomously.

"Is it also the Seven Apertures Thunder Technique? It looks like it's a few levels higher than mine, mid- or late-stage fourth level?"

As the ancestor of the Xie family, it was not surprising to Wei Zhong that Xie Yuanping practiced the "Seven Aperture Thunder Power".

The unexpected thing is:

"What virtue or ability do I have to deserve such provocation? It seems that I am still being used by him?"

Wei Zhong and he entered the sea of ​​thunder and lightning at the same time, and the "Seven Aperture Thunder Power" started to operate autonomously, absorbing the power of thunder and lightning around him.

"As Lei Long said, it is a place for cultivation that matches the power of thunder."

"How? Did you notice any difference?"

Wei Zhong nodded slowly:

"The thunder power is running on its own. Could it be that this place is the relic of the Yu Lei Sect?"

Xie Yuanping replied with some regret:

"That's true. Unfortunately, after the powerful Yu Lei Sect fell apart, only my Xie family was able to preserve this precious place for cultivation. As for the other places, they disappeared in the passage of time...

"For the next period of time, you will stay here to practice!"

Wei Zhong hesitated to speak. This trip to Polar Star Sea was not to take advantage of the Jie family.

I was assigned a task by Hongxu.

As if seeing the hesitation in Wei Zhong's eyes, Xie Yuanping explained:

"Don't worry, my Xie family will not stand idly by in the matter of the Demon Eye. I will send Xie Fan to assist in the defense. As for me, I will see whether to take action at the critical moment."

He shook his head: "If it really comes to a critical moment, I will be powerless to save the situation..."

Sigh:
"That old man with red beard has been in a high position for a long time, and it is difficult for him to be kind to his subordinates. But with this promise from me, it should be enough for you to get through this.

"Hongxu will not bother you anymore. You can practice here with peace of mind in the next period of time. When your Thunder Art enters the middle or even late stage, I will plan an opportunity with you.

"It will be beneficial to both you and my Jie family.

"You are a little curious and confused about my Xie family, right? Then you will know everything."

After explaining a few words to Wei Zhong, he turned and left when he saw that Wei Zhong's life was not in danger.

Wei Zhong looked at the silver sea of ​​thunder and sighed heavily:
"This favor is so huge!"

Sitting cross-legged, Wei Zhong's thunder power and spiritual power were running synchronously.

Who can resist eating the meat that is delivered to your door? At worst, you can just pay it back later.

In the remaining years, every once in a while, the Jie brothers and sisters would come to this thunder pool and bring many precious pills and elixirs with Wei Zhong.

"Uncle Master, Brother Fan has brought many of the family's core monks and arrived at the Demon Eye on the family's fifth-order spirit boat."

There was a hint of respect in his words.

Wei Zhong felt somewhat helpless about Jie Yuanping's unilateral behavior of accepting disciples.

Taking the storage bag from Xie Ruolin, Wei Zhong asked:
"When Fellow Daoist Jie Fan left, he brought so many family cultivators with him. Will this have an adverse effect on the Jie family?"

After hearing Wei Zhong's caring words, Xie Ruolin believed the old ancestor's words a little more.

"Uncle Master, don't worry. The wealth accumulated by our Xie family over thousands of years is not so weak. Besides, our ancestors are still alive, right?"
