Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 1120 Slaying the Giant Spirit God
Just as Su Wanwan was recalling this painful past, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared in front of her, and a handsome figure abruptly appeared.

Both the man and the dog stared in disbelief at the exceptionally handsome young man.

"Ning...fa?"

Su Wanwan wondered if she was seeing things. She had just read Ning Fa's name, and now this person had appeared so vividly.

Moreover, upon sensing Ning Fa's undisguisedly powerful cultivation level, her eyes widened, and she blurted out, "What? You've actually advanced to the Nascent Soul stage?!"

A storm raged within Su Wanwan's heart.

In just one hundred years, Ning Fa had become a Nascent Soul cultivator.

You should know that Ning Fa was in a state of near death back then. Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for him to even recover from his injuries, let alone advance to the Nascent Soul stage, in a hundred years.

Su Wanwan immediately thought of the clay teapot that had disappeared in the valley along with Ning Fa.

Needless to say, Ning Fa must have used the Five Elements True Source in the teapot or some other special ability of that treasure to recover from his injuries so quickly and advance to the Nascent Soul stage.

Thinking of this, Su Wanwan felt a pang of heartache. She cried out in her heart, "This opportunity was originally meant for me!"

Ning Fa nodded with a smile: "I have to thank Fellow Daoist Su for this. Not only did he save my life, but he also helped me obtain that opportunity, which allowed me to advance to the Nascent Soul stage so quickly. I will never forget such a great kindness."

Ning Fa's words of gratitude were more like rubbing salt into Su Wanwan's wounds.

Su Wanwan clutched her chest, looking like she couldn't breathe. It took her a while to recover before she glared fiercely at Ning Fa.

But when she encountered Ning Fa's incredibly powerful spiritual pressure, she forcibly swallowed back the harsh words she was about to utter. After taking a deep breath, she managed a weak smile and said, "Fellow Daoist Ning, don't forget the agreement between us."

Her voice was full of pleading.

Ning Fa nodded solemnly: "Fellow Daoist Su, rest assured, I will do my best to stabilize your Nascent Soul body and help you advance to the Divine Transformation stage."

Hearing Ning Fa's solemn promise, Su Wanwan felt much better.

Meanwhile, Jin Hao, recovering from his shock at seeing Ning Fa, excitedly wagged his tail like a spinning top, opened his mouth wide, and exclaimed with delight:
"Fellow Daoist Ning, I have finally seen you again! For the past few hundred years, I have often thought of you in my spare time, always wondering when we could meet again. I never thought it would be until today."

And now you've even advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, truly a cause for celebration!

Ning Fa looked at Jin Hao with a strange expression. Although this dog's cultivation level had improved considerably, it was still the same as before. Despite being a spirit beast, its speaking style was no different from that of a human cultivator.

He looked at the man and the dog, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes. From what Su Wanwan had just said, it seemed that they had been cooperating for some time and had actually stolen the treasure of the Giant Spirit Clan's Nascent Soul cultivator, Yan E, which was why this man was chasing them so frantically.

What Ningfa cared about even more was the treasure trove of the sea creatures that the man and his dog were plotting to find.

But now is not the time for reminiscing, because the enemy has arrived.

A streak of fire was seen flying rapidly toward them from the distant horizon.

Su Wanwan's face turned pale instantly, and she said nervously, "Brother Ning, this Giant Spirit Clan's Nascent Soul cultivator is very powerful, not comparable to an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator."

Although you are very strong, you've only just entered the Nascent Soul stage. Why don't we lay low for a while?

Jin Hao immediately chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, let's hurry! This big guy is really fierce!"

Ning Fa smiled faintly: "It's alright, just watch with peace of mind."

The man and the dog looked at him with suspicion. Before long, the raging flames stopped a hundred feet away from the three of them, revealing Yan E's tall figure.

His usually ferocious face now showed a mixture of surprise and suspicion as he looked at Ning Fa.

"You are... Ning Fa? You've actually advanced to the Nascent Soul stage?"

Although more than a hundred years have passed, he still has a deep impression of this human Nascent Soul cultivator who was able to fight against the Nascent Soul cultivator back then.

Now that this person has actually advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, even someone as arrogant as him couldn't help but show shock and doubt in his eyes.

Although he was arrogant, he was not stupid. Back then, when Ning Fa was still in the Nascent Soul stage, he was able to fight against the Divine Transformation stage. Now that he has advanced to the Divine Transformation stage, how strong must he be?
Seeing that Ning Fa didn't reply but instead looked at him with the eyes of someone eyeing prey, Yan felt a surge of rage, but he suppressed his anger. The raging flames around him subsided, and he said in a low, rumbling voice:

"I'll give you face today. Hand over this dead dog to me, and I won't pursue the matter of that woman breaking into my cave and stealing treasure."

Upon hearing this, Jin Hao was immediately shocked and looked at Ning Fa with his tail wagging wildly.

Ning Fa smiled and said calmly, "Meeting me was your bad luck. Today is the anniversary of your death!"

"Arrogant! You don't know your place!" Yan E roared in anger, his left eye suddenly widening and shooting out a beam of red light.

In an instant, it transformed into a sea of ​​fire covering tens of acres, the flames raging and radiating extreme heat, engulfing Ning Fa within.

With a cry of surprise, Su Wanwan and Jin Hao, protected by a layer of lightning shield, shot backward for dozens of miles.

Ning Fa stood with his hands behind his back amidst the raging sea of ​​fire, watching Yan E cast his spell with great interest.

Although he had never directly fought against him, he knew him quite well, as most of his supernatural abilities were concentrated in his five eyes.

His left eye, the Wildfire Eye, can unleash a hundred-mile-long blaze with a single glance, and can even ignite spiritual energy itself, forming a spiritual fire storm. This is the sea of ​​fire he is unleashing right now.

The right eye, the Blazing Heart Eye, can double the power of one's own fire-attribute divine abilities.

The left pupil on the forehead, the Burning Consciousness Pupil, is a divine power for attacking the soul. It can release the Burning Divine Fire, which can burn the soul of the enemy. Those who are hit will be trapped in a fiery inferno. At best, they will be confused; at worst, their nascent soul will be destroyed.

The right pupil on his forehead, the Ember Bone Eye, shoots out annihilating ember light that can melt away the skin and bones of enemies, making it particularly effective against body-refining cultivators.

Finally, there is its most powerful central pupil, the Blazing Sun True Pupil, which can release Blazing Sun True Fire to activate the Blazing Sun Dharma Form.

When Yan E opens all five eyes, he can directly fight against a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. This also shows the unique advantage of the Giant Spirit Clan. With each additional eye, they gain a powerful innate divine ability.

Seeing Ning Fa standing motionless in the sea of ​​fire, Yan Zhao felt a chill run down his spine, and his unease grew stronger.

Without saying a word, he opened his right eye again, and a beam of crimson light shot out once more, causing the sea of ​​fire to surge violently and its power to increase several times over.

Then, his left and right pupils on his forehead opened one after another, adding more white and gray flames to the sea of ​​fire.

Despite the fierce impact of several layers of flames, they were unable to break through the thin lightning shield in front of Ning Fa.

The white flames that attacked Ningfa's sea of ​​consciousness were like a clay ox entering the sea, without causing the slightest ripple.

Yan E's fierce face was immediately filled with shock. He had already opened all four eyes, but he couldn't even get Ning Fa to deal with him seriously.

He roared and suddenly slashed a bloody gash in his left hand, from which dozens of drops of blood essence flew out and entered his central pupil—the True Eye of the Blazing Sun.

Beneath the blood-red light, the only vertical eye slowly opened, and a powerful aura of savage evil surged forth. A burst of blood-gold flames slowly shot out from it, enveloping Yan E's entire body.

Its body rapidly grew to a height of a hundred feet, and the giant axe in its hand also grew larger, with numerous blood-gold runes appearing on its surface.

At this moment, the aura emanating from Yan E had completely reached the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

The surrounding raging sea of ​​fire suddenly receded, completely disappearing into the giant axe, which was already dozens of feet long. Layers of fire were added to its surface, causing its power to surge once again.

Upon seeing this scene, Su Wanwan and Jin Hao, who were hiding in the distance, both changed their expressions drastically. Su Wanwan even subconsciously clutched a life-saving spiritual item in her hand, ready to make a run for it at any moment.

"Die!" Yan E, who had unleashed the Fiery Sun Dharma Form, swung his giant axe fiercely.

Amidst the raging inferno, the giant axe rapidly grew larger, instantly becoming a thousand feet in size, like a fiery peak, slashing down upon Ning Fa with overwhelming force.

"Well done!" Ning Fa's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and with a flick of his right hand, the Gengjin Sword Fish leaped out amidst a clear and melodious sword cry.

Immediately, a flash of spiritual light appeared on the surface of the Gengjin Sword, revealing the mysterious grotto rune. It quickly lit up, and the surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy) surged uncontrollably towards the sword, rapidly expanding it to a size of tens of feet.

Although it was still incredibly small compared to the mountain-like giant axe, its terrifying pressure, like a bolt of lightning, caused Yan E's expression to change drastically.

Because at this moment, the Gengjin Sword had already borrowed a trace of the power of the laws of heaven and earth. Even if it was only the most basic borrowing, its power was already unimaginable.

"Boom!" The giant axe and the thunder sword collided. Fire should have been the element that countered metal, but the stalemate lasted less than half a breath before a tearing sound rang out.

Countless lightning sword energies surged forth from the Gengjin Sword, piercing countless holes in the fiery peak as if it were thin paper. Within these holes, countless minute lightning forces erupted, causing the holes to expand rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, most of the fiery mountain had melted away.

"No!" Yan E roared in defiance, his five eyes being frantically activated at any cost, each beam of light of a different color being added to the collapsing giant axe, but it was like a drop in the ocean.

Two breaths later, a sword light as bright as day flashed by, instantly melting away the flames and revealing the giant axe itself.

A fine crack appeared on its surface from top to bottom, and then it split in two.

The two halves of the giant axe once again erupted with surging white lightning, and in the blink of an eye, they shattered into countless fragments, becoming completely useless.

"Damn it! How can he be so strong!?"

At this moment, Yan, whose eyes were bleeding profusely, roared in disgust, finally realizing that the gap between himself and Ning Fa at this moment was too great, and that Ning Fa was even much stronger than his fellow clansman.

Just then, another sharp sword light flashed, and the blazing sun dharma image, which was as large as a hundred-foot giant, was instantly shattered into pieces in the dazzling sword light.

But then, each of its five eyes emitted a streak of fire, shooting off in different directions at incredible speed, appearing dozens of miles away in the blink of an eye.

Ke Ningfa's gaze was deep and unfathomable. In his sea of ​​consciousness, the nascent form of the Taiyin Jade Infant, which was very similar to his own Nascent Soul, made a hand gesture, and five beams of moon-white spiritual light shot out in quick succession.

At the same time, in front of the five eyes that had already fled a hundred miles away, a flash of white light suddenly appeared, and a lake appeared out of thin air in each of them.

Caught off guard, the five eyes plunged into the lake, causing ripples and a surge of water. The fiery evil spirits attached to the five eyes struggled violently, trying to break free from the lake, but they only felt the water getting colder and colder, freezing even their souls.

Soon, the fiery evil spirits in the five eyes lost consciousness.

Before long, the five eyes floated to Ning Fa's side amidst the continuous shimmering water, as if drifting with the current.

With a swirling motion of water, five slightly illusory crimson figures were pulled directly from the five eyes and then merged into one.

It was Yan E's spirit, and at this moment, his five eyes were tightly closed, and he was powerless to resist.

Immediately, the watery light transformed into a moon-white rune, which disappeared directly into his forehead.

In this way, Yan E was placed under a restriction by Ning Fa, and his life and death were in Ning Fa's hands.

And so, this powerful Giant Spirit Clan Nascent Soul cultivator, who had once earned great renown and struck fear into the hearts of many Nascent Soul cultivators of the human race, was captured alive by Ning Fa.

Ning Fa's eyes narrowed slightly, his expression showing a hint of helplessness.

Just now, in order to test the true power of the Heavenly Thunder, he directly used this divine power against his enemy, and the force of his attack was completely different from the previous slight probing.

The sheer power of the divine thunder did not disappoint him at all. Yan E, whose full-force attack was comparable to that of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, was completely powerless against it.

To Ning Fa's dismay, he realized that some of his Supreme Golden Thunder essence had been depleted.

This is because the primordial energy of heaven and earth in the human realm is sealed off. Exceeding a certain limit when using innate supernatural powers will consume one's own innate essence.

For other Nascent Soul cultivators, the cost would be their lifespan; for him, it would be the very essence of divine lightning.

Even those who have advanced to the level of Divine Thunder in the Cave Heaven cannot avoid it.

Fortunately, the consumption was not significant, and it was nothing compared to his current abundant divine lightning source. He could recover by absorbing high-grade metal-attribute spiritual objects or by using his true form imprint.

Of course, he first needs to replenish his source points and pay a large sum of source points to unlock the Heavenly Book.

But there's no rush. Sea creatures, demons, and numerous high-level cultivators are all his "pastures."

At this moment, Ningfa flipped his right hand, and an ancient golden lamp appeared in his hand, which was the Heavenly Flame Candle.

With a flash of light, a beautiful figure flew out from within—it was Liu Ying.

She first glanced at the Yan'e spirit beside her, which, though unconscious, still emanated a powerful aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator, her eyes filled with excitement. Then, she respectfully said to Ning Fa, "Congratulations, Master, on achieving the Nascent Soul stage."

Her way of addressing him has naturally changed from "Brother Ning".

"It seems you're only now truly acknowledging me," Ning Fa said with a leisurely smile.

"With your current strength, you are already invincible in this world. Your future achievements will far surpass those of my previous master."

Fireflies naturally and willingly acknowledge their master as their master.

"If the master doesn't mind, he can place a soul restriction on me at any time, so that I can peacefully serve as the spirit of this Heavenly Flame Candle."

"It's firefly," Liu Ying said respectfully.

She was actually a little uneasy.

She has always been proud and arrogant. Even though she met Ning Fa very early on, she always treated him as an equal and never considered him her master.

The significance of recognizing a master now, as if adding flowers to brocade, is naturally very different from recognizing a master when one is in dire need.

Ning Fa smiled.

Although fireflies pursue freedom, they are spirits of artifacts and must eventually find a powerful treasure with compatible attributes to serve as their vessel. Otherwise, they will be like water without a source, destined to perish sooner or later, and they will never be free.

The Heavenly Flame Candle is the treasure that best matches her attributes.

Now that Ning Fa has achieved the Nascent Soul stage and has obtained the essence of this Nascent Soul level fire-attribute being, it is not surprising that Tianyan Zhu is poised to become a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure.

"Alright. First, fuse this Nascent Soul essence into the Heavenly Flame Candle to allow it to truly advance. After that, I will place a control restriction on you."

Ning Fa said calmly.

Although Liu Ying is somewhat hesitant to act without seeing results, she had helped him a lot before, and such a spiritual spirit is rare in the world, so he naturally couldn't let her go easily.

"Thank you, Master!" Liu Ying was relieved and overjoyed when she saw Ning Fa nod.

Then, Ning Fa pointed out, and the Yan E spirit transformed into a beam of fire and disappeared into the Heavenly Flame Candle. Liu Ying also bowed to Ning Fa and flew into it as well.

After Ning Fa put away the Heavenly Flame Candle, he made a gesture with one hand, and in a flash of light, an ancient ring burning with flames appeared in front of him. It was Yan E's storage ring.

He easily broke through the restriction, and with a slight glance, a smile appeared on his face.

Yan E's wealth is extremely substantial; he possesses over twenty top-grade spirit stones and tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones.

There are also numerous other magical treasures, pills, spiritual herbs and flowers, and various materials, and those that he can collect are at least fourth-tier items.

"Did you really kill this Nascent Soul cultivator from the Giant Spirit Clan?"

At this moment, two streaks of light flew over; it was Su Wanwan and Jin Hao.

The man and the dog stared at Ningfa in disbelief, still finding it hard to believe despite witnessing it firsthand.

The powerful Giant Spirit Clan's Nascent Soul cultivator, who had once relentlessly pursued them to the ends of the earth, was actually captured by Ning Fa in just a few dozen breaths.

After her initial shock, Su Wanwan's pretty face lit up with joy, and she even realized that what Xiao Jing had said earlier wasn't wrong.

He had saved the life of such a powerful cultivator, so wouldn't he have a powerful backer? Wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wanted in the human realm?

Jin Hao's eyes widened in disbelief. He could hardly believe that Ning Fa, who was just a Qi Refining cultivator more than three hundred years ago, had become so powerful.

Immediately, its dog face was also full of joy. It believed that its relationship with Ning Fa was special, so wouldn't it have a great backer?

"Now tell me, what has been the situation in the human realm over the past hundred years?" Ning Fa asked solemnly.
