Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 1130 Strong
"How dare you?" The ancient lord's clone's face turned pale, and he roared angrily.

Ning Fa laughed wildly, his sword technique changed, and the five thunder swords flashed with various colors of light. What he then unleashed was no longer thunder sword energy, but strands of thunder swords condensed to the extreme, emitting a "hissing" sound as they tore through the air.

The three powerful mythical beasts—the spirit dragon, the giant bear, and the golden python—that shot out from the golden seal could not withstand the onslaught and were torn apart by the lightning sword threads amidst their roars.

Subsequently, the lightning sword threads struck the golden seal directly. As the golden seal flashed with golden light, cracks began to appear on its surface, and it shattered into countless fragments.

This powerful treasure was thus destroyed.

With their minds connected, the ancient venerable's clone coughed up a mouthful of blood, but he reacted extremely quickly and immediately summoned a crystal jade bowl.

Under his desperate, all-consuming urging, the jade bowl shone brightly, growing to several feet in size, protecting him within.

At the same time, the glass flowers on the surface of the jade bowl seemed to come alive and began to spin, with countless flowers flying out to form a light screen made of glass flowers, blocking the extremely sharp sword threads, as well as the wooden arrows and green leaves fired by You Yunzi.

Even though this is just an avatar of an ancient venerable being, it still possesses many valuable items. This crystal jade bowl is clearly a treasure of the prototype level of a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure, and a rather powerful one at that.

However, Lu Yue Shenjun, the Nascent Soul Ancestor of Yuan Cha Sect, was not so lucky.

With a gentle lift of his right hand, the Divine Firmament Dharma Image formed a ferocious thunder spear amidst a purple halo. Numerous thunder runes swirled rapidly around the spear, radiating a powerful aura capable of tearing mountains and splitting seas.

It was the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Spear.

The thunder spear trembled violently before suddenly shooting out.

The Moon-Slaying God had already changed his expression drastically, sensing the danger of his demise. He disregarded everything else, opened his mouth and spat out a fist-sized, snow-white bead, cupped it in both hands, and poured all his blood and essence into the bead without regard for the cost.

In the blink of an eye, wrinkles appeared on Lu Yue Shenjun's face, giving off an old and frail appearance, while the round bead emitted a bright white light, shooting out a white stone gate phantom.

Two tall stone pillars stand on either side of the stone gate, and behind the gate is a rapidly spinning, dark vortex that exudes a chilling aura.

The Heavenly Punishment Thunder Spear transformed into a purple streak and shot straight into the dark vortex behind the stone gate, as if it were being swallowed up by it.

Lord Luyue had just breathed a sigh of relief when his expression quickly froze.

At the center of the vortex, countless bolts of purple lightning continued to emerge, as if another purple lightning vortex was rotating counterclockwise within it.

With a loud "boom," the vortex, along with the stone gate and even the round magic weapon itself, shattered into countless fragments.

The next moment, a bolt of purple lightning pierced through the chest of the Moon Slaughtering God with lightning speed. His body surface first crackled with intense lightning, and then exploded with a bang.

A flash of white light, and a two-inch-sized nascent soul shot out from it and disappeared in a flash.

But the Heavenly Thunder Realm once again shot out streaks of lightning, which transformed into slender chains of lightning that pierced the void.

Immediately, a ripple appeared in the void, and a beautiful female Nascent Soul cultivator was pulled out, bound by several chains of lightning.

The nascent soul's face was filled with terror as it cried out in a shrill voice, "Ning Fa, you can't kill me!"
Tianyou is still in my hands, I've refined her into an avatar. If I die, she certainly won't survive either! If you're willing to let me go, I'm willing to have a mind-controlling restriction placed on me and acknowledge you as my master!

On the other side, Ning Fa's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he made a hand seal.

At this moment, the lightning chains binding the Nascent Soul of the Moon-Slaying God Lord shot out lightning, instantly forming several complex hand seals that entered the Nascent Soul's body.

The nascent soul's screams stopped abruptly, and it instantly fainted.

At this moment, Ning Fa looked at the glass bowl in front of him, whose spiritual light had become much thinner, and snorted coldly. He then changed his sword technique again.

The countless lightning sword threads that were frantically attacking the jade bowl suddenly retracted, returning to the five Heavenly Tribulation Swords and merging into one. The sword's spiritual light surged, growing to tens of feet in size, with lightning rolling across its surface. Then, with a "whoosh," black and white flames ignited, further increasing the sword's power.

Lei Jian first raised his sword, then slashed down fiercely.

boom!
With a deafening roar, the numerous flowers on the surface of the glass bowl shattered amidst a flash of light, and a thin crack pierced through the surface of the bowl.

The jade bowl shrank rapidly amidst a flash of spiritual light; although it was not completely destroyed, it was severely damaged.

The ancient avatar that appeared was bloodless. His hands were flashing with spiritual light, as if he wanted to use some other methods, but a purple light flashed behind him.

The Divine Firmament Dharma Image quietly appeared behind him, its right palm lightly resting on his back.

Streaks of purple lightning instantly spread to his body and then disappeared into it.

This person was instantly sealed and lifted up by the neck by the Divine Firmament Dharma Image.

His lips trembled, and his face was filled with dejection and despair.

Gu Ying, standing behind him, froze, his face ashen.

This genius cultivator, renowned throughout the Qin Dynasty for hundreds of years, was now trembling uncontrollably due to immense fear. He let out a frantic scream and flew backward, desperately attacking the barrier of the Heavenly Thunder Realm in an attempt to escape.

At this moment, Ning Fa floated lightly towards him, smiling slightly, "Gu Ying, haven't you been looking for me? Now that I'm here, why do you want to run away again?"

His tone was tinged with amusement, but the intense killing intent in his eyes was something that even the entire world's rivers could not wash away.

Gu Ying can be considered one of the main culprits for the tragic state of himself, the Ning family, and the Huayu Sect. Even if his soul were extracted and refined, it would be difficult to quell the hatred in his heart.

"Don't kill me! I'll do anything you ask if you spare my life!" Gu Ying turned around and shouted frantically.

He has a bright future ahead of him and is so young; he doesn't want to die.

Not far away, Wang Min looked at him with a look of satisfaction and catharsis, but then her beautiful eyes revealed a look of disdain.

Unexpectedly, Gu Ying, who is usually a strategist and has the demeanor of a hero, was so pathetic when faced with life and death.

If Gu Ying had shown more backbone, she might have felt sorry for him, but now, he was nothing more than a clown.

Ning Fa's eyes flashed with a chilling killing intent, and his right hand suddenly opened, releasing a powerful suction force.

The eagle flew uncontrollably into his palm, where Ning Fa held it by the neck and lifted it into the air. Its face turned as red as a pig's liver, and it made "heh heh" sounds as it looked at Ning Fa with a look of fear.

"Don't worry, I will not only not kill you, but I will even let you live for a thousand years."

After all, killing you like this would be too easy for you.

"How can I quell my hatred without subjecting you to the most cruel tortures in the world?"

At this point, Ning Fa's face contorted with rage, and with lightning flashing in his hand, he immediately placed several restrictions on the ancient eagle's body.

In this way, Gu Ying's life or death was entirely in his hands.

Immediately, Ning Fa tossed the ancient eagle with his right hand, and the eagle fell to the ground like a dead dog, its body trembling and its face filled with despair.

On the other side, You Yunzi and Wangque Sanren had stopped their attack and couldn't help but show their horror again.

After witnessing Ning Fa's other methods, they were convinced that even if the three of them hadn't defected, they wouldn't have been able to do anything to Ning Fa.

Within this strange and powerful lightning barrier, they could not escape being killed one by one.

Only then did they truly believe that Ning Fa really had the strength to kill all eight of them by himself, and the thought of this made them feel suffocated.

Immediately, a sense of relief welled up in their hearts.

I'm glad I made the decisive switch sides, otherwise the outcome would have been unpredictable.

At this moment, the ones still fighting within the barrier are the Heavenly Flame Candle controlled by Liu Ying and Fairy Linghua, who are still attacking Fairy Wanlan.

The defensive formation set up by Fairy Wanlan has been breached layer by layer. It can be seen that she, who is protected by the last layer of the formation, has already turned pale. She is obviously exhausted and cannot hold on for long.

Looking at Ning Fa slowly approaching, Fairy Wanlan's face showed little fear or despair; she simply shook her head and smiled bitterly before speaking:

“Fellow Daoist Ning, although I am a Supreme Elder of the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance, I did not participate in the previous conspiracy against you.”

Furthermore, I did not participate in the persecution of your family and the Huayu Sect by the Merchant Alliance and the Gu family later on. I even helped several people in Cangyuan who had close ties with you. I hope Fellow Daoist Ning can understand this.”

"Oh?" Ning Fa's eyes flashed.

He had been wondering why Ji Lianxing had become the closed-door disciple of this Supreme Elder of the Qian Yuan Business Alliance.

It should be noted that Ji Lianxing was originally a direct descendant of the Cangyuan Wushi Demon Palace. She was coerced by her master, Shen Xinlan, to assassinate Ning Fa during an operation deep into Tianli's rear. However, Ning Fa saw through her scheme and subdued her.

Later, because of her exceptionally beautiful physique, she was taken in by Ning Fa and could be considered his woman.

Logically speaking, Ji Lianxing should have been purged by the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance, but instead she became the closed-door disciple of Fairy Wanlan.

After hearing what Fairy Wanlan said, could it be that she did this on purpose because of me?

Ning Fa raised his right hand, and Liu Ying and Fairy Linghua immediately understood and temporarily suspended their attack.

Ning Fa coldly said, "Let me first place a restriction on you, and then I will search your soul. If it is as you say, I can naturally spare your life." "Alright, then so be it." Fairy Wanlan readily agreed, and even directly removed the defensive formation around her.

Ning Fa instantly appeared in front of her, and without any hesitation, he raised his right hand and, amidst flashes of lightning, placed a restriction on her body.

Then, Ning Fa looked at the anxious Fairy Linghua, You Yunzi, and Wang Que Sanren, and smiled slightly: "You have all made a wise choice."

After saying that, he waved his right hand, and the lightning barrier that enveloped the fifth-level platform trembled, turning back into pieces of lightning that flew back into his body.

At this moment, Ningfa also secretly made his own calculations.

Although the Heavenly Thunder Realm is powerful, it consumes a lot of energy. Just now, he used at least half of his magic power, divine sense, and Five Elements Divine Thunder to maintain this barrier.

Moreover, after being used once, the Heavenly Thunder Realm will have a cooldown period of at least one month.

But compared to its immense power, these costs are insignificant.

Having personally experienced the immense power of the Heavenly Thunder Realm, Ning Fa gained a clearer understanding of his own strength.

Although he had never actually seen a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, he believed that ordinary late-stage cultivators would have a hard time being his opponent without special methods.

Once his Nascent Soul realm is more stable, his advantage will be even greater.

At this moment, the Nascent Soul cultivators surrounding the high platform were watching anxiously from a distance, wondering what the outcome would be within the barrier.

Although it appears that Ning Fa is alone, while he is facing eight Nascent Soul cultivators, normally there is no chance of victory for him.

However, Ning Fa's displayed strength was too astonishing, causing dozens of direct descendants of the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance to hold their breath and feel their hearts in their throats.

They knew very well that this duel was directly related to the fate of the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Business Alliance. They couldn't even let Ning Fa escape; he had to be killed on the spot, otherwise the Gu family and the Business Alliance would never have peace again.

With a deafening roar, the barrier finally dissipated slowly.

A group of Nascent Soul cultivators, along with numerous cultivators from other areas of this immortal city, stared wide-eyed at the sky.

The expressions of the many direct descendants of the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance froze instantly upon seeing the scene in the sky.

The esteemed young master of the Gu family, Gu Ying, and his avatar were being held up in the air by the neck by a tall, purple figure, looking like dead dogs.

The three renowned Nascent Soul experts, Venerable Wan Sha, Lord Lu Yue, and Old Monster Tian Sheng, have completely disappeared without a trace, not even their aura remains, clearly indicating that they have perished.

Meanwhile, You Yunzi, Wangque Sanren, Linghua Fairy, and even Wanlan Fairy, the Supreme Elder of the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance, all stood behind Ning Fa, displaying their complete submission.

Ning Fa stood with his hands behind his back, looking calmly at the many cultivators in the city, like a king ruling over the world.

A huge commotion suddenly erupted among the thousands of cultivators in the immortal city below.

Even those late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators were shocked and could hardly believe their eyes.

They not only didn't expect the battle to end so quickly, but they also found the outcome hard to believe.

The ancient venerable and others were completely defeated. Even the Venerable Wan Sha, the Lu Yue Divine Lord, and the Tian Sheng Old Monster died on the spot. The other Nascent Soul cultivators also seemed to have been subdued.

No one could have predicted this outcome.

The woman in the black dress, Ji Lianxing, widened her beautiful eyes.

Although she knew that Ning Fa must have something to rely on to come alone, she never expected that Ning Fa's strength would be so great that he could fight against eight Nascent Soul cultivators and still win a great victory.

Gu Hanfeng's face froze, his face turned deathly pale, and his body trembled violently.

Not far from him, the burly man in brocade robes and the white-browed old monk also looked panicked, inwardly cursing themselves for having helped the Gu family with their jokes.

Why am I so unlucky to be seated at the same table as Ning Fa?
The two exchanged a glance and quietly retreated.

The other hundreds of direct descendants of the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance had similar expressions, feeling an unprecedented and immense panic engulfing them.

They had only one thought in their minds:
The Gu family and the Qian Yuan Business Alliance may be doomed.

"Run! Run as many as you can, we'll deal with it when the patriarch returns!"

A white-haired, late-stage Nascent Soul elder from the ancient family shouted, then transformed into a streak of light and shot off towards the outskirts of the Immortal City.

The direct descendants of the other ancient families and merchant alliances also suddenly realized what was happening, and they activated all sorts of life-saving techniques, frantically fleeing towards the outer perimeter.

Other cultivators who were not from the Gu family or the Merchant Alliance hesitated for a moment before following suit.

After all, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

Ning Fa, who was on the fifth-floor platform, smiled slightly and looked at a certain spot in the crowd, where he saw Liao, the effeminate steward of the Gu family.

Manager Liao nodded, took out an octagonal array plate, and quickly cast a spell.

A rumbling sound rang out, and a violent fluctuation of spiritual energy erupted within the immortal city. Immediately afterward, a thick golden light curtain rose from the edge of the immortal city, connecting in an instant to completely seal off the city.

This is precisely the defensive barrier of this city, with a grade as high as the fifth level.

After all, this immortal city is not only for Gu Ying's wedding, but will also serve as the internal holy city of the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance in the future, so strong defensive restrictions are essential.

Although the inner city's defensive restrictions are controlled by the Ancient Venerable's clone, Steward Liao happens to have control over the outer defensive restrictions.

At this moment, this fifth-order grand formation, originally intended for defense against external enemies, has cut off the escape route for these direct descendants of the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance.

The cultivators were filled with despair and attacked desperately, but despite their large numbers, breaking through the barrier would not be a quick task.

After all, this restriction is based on the Qianyuan Mountain Range, which is considered the most powerful spiritual vein in the human realm. Even a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator would find it difficult to break through easily.

Not only that, at this moment, restrictions are also rising up on the outer perimeter of the Qianyuan Mountains.

Before long, restrictions were raised at all the important checkpoints in the vast Qian Yuan Mountain Range.

Outside the Immortal City, the lower-ranking cultivators from the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance, who had sensed something was wrong and were about to flee the mountains, were also blocked.

These people are at most at the Core Formation stage; even if they make a move, they won't be able to shake those restrictions at all.

On the fifth-level platform, Fairy Linghua, Youyunzi, Wangque Sanren, and even Fairy Wanlan all felt a chill in their hearts.

Only then did they realize how well Ning Fa had prepared, and judging from Ning Fa's demeanor, he had no intention of letting any member of the Gu family or the Qian Yuan Business Alliance leave.

A thought involuntarily popped into their minds:
Is Ning Fa really going to go so far as to kill all these cultivators?
It should be noted that there are many high-level cultivators among them, including more than a dozen Grand Cultivators and nearly a hundred Nascent Soul Cultivators. If they all die, it will definitely cause a significant loss to the overall strength of the human race.

However, the scene of Fairy Linghua advising Ningfa to prioritize the overall situation, only to be slapped by Ningfa in anger, was still vivid in their minds. These Nascent Soul cultivators dared not utter a word, for fear of getting burned.

Ning Fa glanced around, a cold smile playing on his lips, his chilling voice echoing like thunder across the entire mountain range:

"Fellow Daoists, I, Ning Fa, have come here today solely for revenge."

Only those who have wronged me, Ningfa, my family, and Huayu Sect are my enemies and the targets of my revenge.

If you haven't done it, you can naturally become my friend Ningfa.

If you want to become my friend, you'll have to show some sincerity.

That means you have to take action against my enemies, so that I can feel your sincerity.

Let me add something.

Everyone present has only two choices: become my enemy or become my friend. Those who waver or stand idly by will also be treated as my enemies!

Upon hearing this, Fairy Linghua and the others trembled in their hearts, looking at Ning Fa with fear on their faces.

Only then did they realize Ning Fa's determination; he actually intended to unleash a massacre.

The hundreds of thousands of cultivators trapped in the immortal city and throughout the mountains all changed their expressions drastically.

The cultivators from the ancient families and the merchant alliance, in particular, turned ashen-faced.

The cultivators from other factions stopped what they were doing, their eyes gleaming.

No one is a fool to have cultivated to this level.

Despite the immense power and influence of the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Business Alliance, the cultivation world ultimately values ​​strength above all else. Ning Fa's current display of power is so overwhelming that they believe even if the Gu Venerable himself were here, he would be no match for Ning Fa.

Therefore, the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Business Alliance are finished; their complete destruction and collapse is only a matter of time.
