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

Chapter 418: Tianyin Thunder Mountain
Endless spiritual energy was attracted by this spatial crack and poured into it. Even Wei Zhong himself felt the pulling sensation.

Outside the crack, there were countless strong winds raging, making Wei Zhong's scalp tingle.

Wei Zhong swallowed his saliva and said with emotion:
"It is indeed a magical weapon. Its power can be unleashed to this extent with only the cultivation level of Hedao."

As he spoke, Wei Zhong's aura suddenly dropped, and he retreated from the middle stage of Hedao to the early stage of Hedao.

Falling from mid-air, all the demon dragons looked terrified, looking at the red tasseled spear in Wei Zhong's hand with fear in their hearts.

It was as if they had seen something beyond their knowledge for the first time.

Liekong's eyes widened even more. His claws, which were powerful enough to create cracks in space, were nothing compared to this red tasseled spear. He looked at Wei Zhong, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Wei Zhong naturally understood the other party's thoughts, but he just smiled:
"This spear is not a treasure of space. It was able to tear the space just now only because of its power. It is useless for you to comprehend it."

Upon hearing this, Liekong sighed quietly.

After dismissing everyone, Wei Zhong returned to the cave to continue his recuperation.

He swung the red tasseled spear, and the latter immediately turned into a stream of light and disappeared, returning to the Time Treasure Record in the sea of ​​consciousness.

"Collecting this item is no different from collecting a magic weapon in a storage bag."

Wei Zhong nodded with satisfaction, and with a wave of his palm, a black spiritual ring appeared in his palm.

It was exactly the storage spirit ring of the insect cultivator in the middle stage of Hedao.

This thing is much stronger than ordinary storage bags and can withstand the fluctuations of passing through space channels without being destroyed.

Its owner was already dead, so Wei Zhong used his spiritual sense to explore it and erased the mark on it, then probed into it.

Inside, one suddenly saw a variety of spiritual objects, including spiritual stones, jade slips, and so on.

What surprised Wei Zhong even more was that there was an additional space inside this spiritual ring for storing living things.

Wei Zhong probed with his spiritual sense and immediately saw densely packed spiritual insects inside. Different kinds of spiritual insects were separated by spiritual nets so as not to interfere with each other.

After searching inside the spirit ring, he found a jade slip called Record of Hundred Insects.

After comparing the two items, we found that the magical insects include spotted fire ants, colorful butterflies, and golden scale insects.

Looking at those empty spirit nets, there may be more spirit insects, but they must have died in the fight just now.

Wei Zhong felt a moment of regret, and then turned his attention to the only three remaining spirit insects.

The largest number are the colorful butterflies. Wei Zhong has already seen their effects. The mist they emit can obscure vision and interfere with spiritual perception. They are a kind of auxiliary spiritual insect.

The smallest group of ants is the spotted fire ant, with only one female ant left.

"By eating fire-attributed spiritual materials, they can reproduce on their own... The reproduction effect is obvious, the number advantage is great, and the individuals are weak..."

After reading the records in "Records of Hundreds of Insects", Wei Zhong understood that this was a kind of spiritual insect that circulated in large quantities.

'No wonder you felt your strength wasn't that great at first. Even I could handle it easily.

"To truly unleash its power, it would require at least a thousand, or more."

Wei Zhong took a quick look at it, then put it behind his mind and turned to look at the last kind of golden scale insect.

This kind of demon insect is recorded particularly early in the "Record of Hundreds of Insects". It is a kind of demon insect with obvious individual strength and group advantages.

"By feeding it gold-type spiritual materials, other spiritual creatures can also become its nourishment...

"It can destroy the spiritual light of the cultivator's body. The thing that destroys the magic weapon is the cultivator's body..."

Simply put, this insect devours everything, and if it is raised in groups, it can be a house-destroying weapon.

Eat whatever you pass by and finish it all.

What surprised Wei Zhong even more was that this little bug could also devour mineral veins and, under the control of its owner, select specific mineral species and expel them.

The purity of the metal discharged is extremely high, higher than that of most monks who purify it using various methods.

“He’s a natural born miner!”

This golden scale insect can be used for both attack and auxiliary purposes, and its value is quite high.

Wei Zhong looked at the remaining ten spirit insects and subconsciously ignored the words in the jade slip that said cultivation costs a lot.

The thing Wei Zhong lacks the least is spirit stones. Could ten mere spirit insects really eat Wei Zhong into bankruptcy?
He casually threw a few gold spiritual materials into the spiritual net.

These golden-red bugs immediately vibrated their carapaces, revealing their wings, and moved closer, beginning to nibble at the food in small bites.

Wei Zhong left with satisfaction.

He took out the valuable items from the spirit ring.

Needless to say, Wei Zhong sorted the spiritual materials, spiritual medicines and other items into different categories.

As for the valuable things in the jade slip, there is only this Record of Hundreds of Insects and a secret method to control spiritual insects.

After Wei Zhong looked at it carefully, he suddenly felt a little disdainful.

It also achieves the effect of controlling the entire insect swarm by controlling the Insect King, but it feels inferior to Wei Zhong's own "True Seal Treasure Technique".

"When you have time, you can sell this method."

After all, it is a method used by all Hedao monks, so its basic value cannot be low.

Apart from this, there is nothing else of value in the jade slip.

"It seems that this person is also a guy who doesn't want the benefits to fall into the hands of his enemies."

He casually transferred the pile of spirit stones into his own Demon Abyss Palace.

Only a pile of odds and ends were left, and Wei Zhong casually gathered them together, waiting for the right opportunity to sell them.

"There are no elixirs. It seems that this Hedao cultivator is not having a good life."

Thinking back to when I met him, he looked so injured. Perhaps all my pills had been consumed by him.

Thinking it was a pity in his heart, Wei Zhong imprinted the true seal into the insect kings of the three kinds of spiritual insects.

Then select suitable spiritual materials for the three insects to eat.

"These spirit insects can also be used as a means of assisting me in the future."

Thinking of this, his consciousness withdrew from it, and then put the spirit ring on his hand. After leaving the mark, the power in Wei Zhong's body happened to dissipate again, and he returned to the late stage of refining emptiness.

The loss of strength and the sudden feeling of fatigue in his body made Wei Zhong frown slightly.

Look at the panel intently:

【Name: Wei Zhong】

[Cultivation: Late stage of Refining Void (29th level, %)]

【Shouyuan: 8281/10000】

'With only a thousand years left to live, it's no wonder you feel uncomfortable.'

Being haunted by the He Dao, and in order to obtain the immortal weapon, he was forced to spend two thousand years of his life and level up twice.

The amount of lifespan consumed was quite a lot, but the benefits were also many. Needless to say, the immortal weapon, just the fact that the Hedao Yuanshen nourished Wei Zhong's sea of ​​consciousness made Wei Zhong quite satisfied.

Wei Zhong silently thought:

"Krypton level once."

The panel changes suddenly:

【Name: Wei Zhong】

[Cultivation: Late stage of Refining Void (eighth level, 29%)]

【Shouyuan: 7481/10000】

Wei Zhong stretched his body slightly, and did not rush back to the spirit world, but began to practice on the spot:
After more than three hundred years, Wei Zhong returned to the late stage of refining emptiness (ninth level). [Name: Wei Zhong]

[Cultivation: Late stage of Refining Void (29th level, %)]

【Shouyuan: 7816/10000】

He came out of seclusion, took a look at the spiritual plants cultivated in the spiritual medicine garden, and then opened the space channel on the spot and left.

"More than three hundred years have passed. There must be no one guarding the other side of the space channel, right?"

Sure enough, when Wei Zhong returned to the spiritual world, there was no one waiting there.

It was deserted all around, even passers-by and monks were few and far between.

Wei Zhong jumped back to the ground and walked in the direction of Tianyin Leishan in his memory.

As the base of the Mahayana Immortal Sect's Tianyin Leishan, the Tiantong Spiritual Realm is quite large, even larger than several surrounding spiritual realms combined.

Wei Zhong is currently at the border of the spiritual realm. If there is no large spiritual boat, it will take at least two or three months to travel by relying on his own small spiritual boat.

Fortunately, Wei Zhong was not in a hurry. He stopped and walked along the way, and experienced the local culture in the fairy cities along the way. Only then did he successfully arrive at Tianyin Leishan three months later.

After finding the place where disciples were being recruited, Wei Zhong presented the outer disciple token obtained from the human world. The disciple in charge of recruiting took a look at it and was stunned.

Sensing Wei Zhong's cultivation level, he dared not neglect it:

"Please wait a moment, Senior. I cannot handle this matter. I will ask the steward to come over right away."

Wei Zhong nodded indifferently and watched the latter leave. After a while, he came here with a cultivator with a head full of white hair.

After seeing Wei Zhong's appearance and the green disciple token in his hand, he was secretly surprised:

"My name is Wen Chengyun. Nice to meet you, fellow Taoist. What's your name?"

"Wei Zhong, nice to meet you, Fellow Daoist Wen."

The two parties saluted each other, and Wei Zhong looked at the latter. His cultivation level was about the middle stage of Lianxu, his eyebrows and eyes were clear, and there was a flash of lightning. It was obvious that he was practicing the Tianyin Leishan Thunder Method.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Wei. May I ask if you are here to ascend?"

Wei Zhong nodded:

"It is indeed an ascended monk, but it has been many years since then, and I have been searching all the way to the sect..."

Wei Zhong described his own experience in a very tortuous way, causing the latter to sigh repeatedly.

From his few casual words, Wei Zhong discovered that this person seemed to have a particular liking for, or even awe of, the ascended monks.

"You have had a rough journey, fellow Daoist, but now that you have arrived at my Tianyin Leishan, you don't have to worry or be afraid anymore. In the future, no one will dare to bully you because of your sect status..."

Wei Zhong just ignored these words and let them go.

"Could you show me some of your ancient spiritual thunder species?"

'coming! ’

Wei Zhong showed regret on his face, and said what he had thought of long ago:

"I am really ashamed. Although I obtained a Linggu Lei seed during the test, I was unable to keep it..."

Another story of ups and downs was told. I wonder how much the monk named Wen in front of me believed it.

"Afterwards, I could only find a replacement thunder seed on my own, but the effect is ultimately not as good as that of the ancient thunder seed...

“If you can’t do it, you can still find the remaining charm of the ancient spirit in my Sky-breaking Divine Thunder.”

After just glancing at the silver thunder seed that Wei Zhong took out with his naked eyes, the latter nodded as if he didn't care.

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist. It doesn't matter if the ancient spirit thunder seed is gone. As long as you have the token, it will be fine. This token of an outer disciple cannot be faked."

He formed a seal in his hand and struck it, and the green token flew up. The lightning energy in Wei Zhong's body sensed it, resonated with it, and began to operate on its own.

Lightning flashed suddenly within the seven orifices, making Wen Chengyun marvel in amazement.

Wei Zhong demonstrated a few things, then quickly restrained himself.

This is the induction between the same origin martial arts, not that the other party can control the operation of Wei Zhong's internal martial arts.

"Fellow Daoist Wei's thunder technique is indeed extremely profound, having reached the pinnacle of the fifth level."

"Thank you, thank you!"

Calling the disciples, Wen Chengyun drew a sect token for Wei Zhong. After a moment, a brand new silver token appeared in his hand.

"Fellow Daoist, just leave your own essence and blood on the order."

Wei Zhong took it in his hand, and a drop of golden blood was squeezed out from his fingertips and dripped onto the token.

After receiving the blood, the silver token flashed with lightning and then disappeared into thin air.

Wei Zhong flipped through it and saw the words "Wei Zhong" printed on it, and an inner door mark on the back.

"Your cultivation has reached the late stage of Refining Void, but it does not meet the standards for the outer sect. The inner sect qualifications are the most suitable for you.

“Of course, if Fellow Daoist Wei can become a disciple of the inner sect, or make some contributions, he can also obtain the status of a true disciple, and all the benefits can be increased a lot more than above…”

Wen Chengyun introduced Wei Zhong to him, and Wei Zhong nodded, listening to him.

However, Wei Zhong obviously did not care much about the identity of the true disciple. He came here only to obtain the "Zhou Tian Thunder Art", the follow-up technique of "Seven Aperture Thunder Art".

And at the same time, find a way to deal with thunder disasters.

After introducing them, Wen Chengyun sent Wei Zhong to the Divine Transformation disciple behind him:
"Take your Uncle Wei with you to collect the disciple's belongings and choose a cave..."

"Yes," he took a step forward and came to Wei Zhong, "Senior Wei, please follow me."

Wei Zhong followed the latter deep into Lingshan.

Watching the two of them leave, a Divine Transformation disciple approached Wen Chengyun and said:
"Master, it's such a pity for this person. He actually lost the ancient spirit thunder seed. Therefore, he lost the opportunity to compete for the position of young sect leader."

"What a pity! Who can I blame for losing it myself?

“But it’s also a good thing. This person was born in the lower realm, has extraordinary qualifications, and his cultivation is in the late stage of refining emptiness. He is only one step away from the integration of the Dao.

“If we really let him keep the Spirit Ancient Thunder Seed, I’m afraid it will add another powerful opponent to the sect’s geniuses.”

"Haha, Master is thinking about Senior Brother Qiu!"

Hearing this name, Wen Chengyun smiled:

"Of course. How have you been getting along with the young lady from the Qiu family recently? If it's suitable, Master will personally take you to propose marriage."

The male cultivator behind him shook his head slightly:

"I am enthusiastic, but Qiu Yun is so cold and seems to look down on me..."

Along the way, Wei Zhong followed the disciple guide in front of him and received the disciple salary and even spiritual objects.

The other party pointed at the stone platform above his head and said:
"When you first join the sect, you will have a one hundred year grace period. After one hundred years, you must accept the sect's mission here.

"My Tianyin Leishan is quite lenient. You only need to complete one mission every five hundred years, but there are some requirements for the mission level..."

Hearing the disciple in front of him chattering, Wei Zhong nodded lightly.

The identities of disciples of these sects are not easy to obtain. As a cultivator who enjoys treatment within the sect, one naturally has to work hard for the sect.

"Of course, if you feel that these missions are dangerous and tedious, you can also accept the high-level technical missions mentioned above..."

After an introduction, he took Wei Zhong to another hill.

This is the main peak of Tianyin Leishan Mountain. A huge stone tablet stands here, and lightning is diffused on it. Wei Zhong looked up and saw lightning going straight into the sky...
