Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 993 The Truth About the Ancient Thunder Scripture

Ning Fa was immediately moved.

The name of the Immortal-Slaying Pearl was well-known to him. It was one of the most powerful consumable attack spiritual objects known, posing a serious threat even to great cultivators.

When Ning Fa first learned of this item, he thought about collecting materials to make it as a trump card, but the main materials were too difficult to collect, so he had to give up.

But the Immortal-Slaying Pearl before them was different; it was actually a fragment of some Great Immortal-Slaying Pearl.

This Great Immortal-Slaying Pearl is clearly a level above the ordinary Immortal-Slaying Pearl, as evidenced by the fact that its main material is made from the Heavenly Eye of a fifth-order Three-Eyed Celestial Ape.

The strength of a fifth-order Three-Eyed Celestial Ape is probably beyond that of an ordinary human Nascent Soul cultivator.

In particular, most of the Three-Eyed Celestial Ape's supernatural powers are concentrated in that one eye, which gives you an idea of ​​the power of the Great Immortal Annihilation Pearl. It would probably pose a huge threat even to Nascent Soul cultivators.

A glint of light flashed in Ning Fa's eyes.

I never expected that this Immortal-Slaying Pearl would have such a background. It must have been given to him by Pei Nanshu's friend from the Heavenly Ape Clan. This also shows that his relationship with Yuan Gang is indeed extraordinary.

Ning Fa, however, was excited, because if he could trace the origin of the Great Immortal Destroyer Pearl, he would have another trump card that could threaten Nascent Soul cultivators, in addition to the Chaos Divine Lightning. This was naturally of great significance to him.

However, Ningfa thought about it and did not immediately trace the source.

After all, fourth-tier source points are too precious, and I only have ten on me. The situation isn't that critical right now, so I should save these source points for now. They might be of more use later.

Anyway, if he wants to use it, he can trace its origin at any time.

Thinking of this, Ning Fa carefully put away the Immortal-Slaying Pearl.

As Ning Fa thought for another moment, two more objects appeared in front of him amidst a flash of light.

They are respectively a black crystal with countless facets, which looks mysterious and unpredictable.

And another round bead flashing with black lightning, which was left behind by Liao Wuyin and Lei E after their deaths.

Ning Fa first looked at the black lightning bead.

For some reason, he could feel an instinctive craving for this thing.

Moreover, it wasn't because of his Thunder Body, but because his Nascent Soul was yearning for it, which surprised Ning Fa and gave him some guesses.

Then, Ningfa looked at the Heavenly Book.

The surface of the Heavenly Book was once again glowing with white light, as these two objects had triggered a reaction in it, even stronger than before.

Before long, the Heavenly Book displayed the patterns of the black crystal and the black lightning bead, and two messages came again.

"The Ancient Spirit Core, made from the cursed blood of an ancient immortal and the embers of the Dark Sun, can provide the Heavenly Book with two fourth-tier source points and four hundred third-tier source points. It can be traced back to the blood of an ancient immortal, requiring four fourth-tier source points, and it can be traced back to the embers of the Dark Sun, requiring one fourth-tier source point."

"The Ancient Spirit Core is made from the cursed Ancient Immortal Blood and the Ancient Thunder Core. It can provide the Heavenly Book with four fourth-tier source points and six hundred third-tier source points. It can be traced back to the Ancient Immortal Blood, which requires eight fourth-tier source points, and it can be traced back to the Ancient Thunder Core, which requires two fourth-tier source points."

Ning Fa was taken aback.

The two items left behind by Liao Wuyin and Lei E are truly extraordinary, and are extremely rare items that can both provide the source of the Heavenly Book and allow for further tracing of its origins.

Both of these applications require an astonishing number of source points.

It can be said to be the highest source point that Ningfa has ever encountered that can provide the Heavenly Book, although it cannot compare with the mysterious white fragment before.

This seems to suggest that the Heavenly Book has a particular fondness for ancient immortals.

Through the information in the Heavenly Book, Ning Fa also vaguely understood how those ancient immortals created the Ancient Spirits.

It turns out that their original blood is needed, along with some special spiritual items.

He had never even heard of the embers of the dark sun, but he knew it was extraordinary just by looking at the source point required to trace its origin.

The source points required for tracing the ancient immortal bloodlines of the two are different, which likely indicates the relative strength of the two ancient immortals behind them. Obviously, the ancient immortal behind Lei'e, Lei Ming, is stronger.

Ning Fa suppressed the turmoil in his heart and then stared intently at the black lightning bead on the surface of the Heavenly Book.

The words "Ancient Origin Thunder Core" immediately gave him a clue.

Ning Fa realized that it was this ancient source thunder core that made his body instinctively crave it.

Ningfa pondered for a while, and finally made up his mind.

As soon as he had a thought, the pattern of the black thunder bead on the surface of the Heavenly Book once again emitted a white light.

Then the white light flew up and instantly enveloped the black lightning bead in front of Ning Fa.

After the strange phenomenon dissipated, the black lightning bead had disappeared, leaving only a silver lightning bead that was smaller in size.

It looked crystal clear, with slender, sparkling arcs of electricity flashing from time to time. The aura it emitted also changed drastically, losing its previous evil feel.

A look of delight flashed in Ningfa's eyes.

As he communicated with the Heavenly Book, he discovered that the Heavenly Book's third-order source points had now increased to 830, which was 600 more than before.

The fourth-order source points have increased to twelve, two more than before.

It was clearly what remained after the Heavenly Book absorbed the cursed ancient immortal blood and then deducted the ancient lightning core from its source. Although the ancient immortal blood was obviously more valuable, Ning Fa really didn't want to keep such a strange thing by his side, especially since tracing its source required such a high level of source points.

At this moment, Ning Fa stared intently at the silver lightning bead in front of him.

This object held an even greater attraction for him than before. At this moment, as if stimulated, the silver lightning around him began to flicker erratically.

Ning Fa immediately sat cross-legged and made a hand seal.

Not long after, a flash of silver lightning appeared above his head, and a two-inch-sized baby suddenly appeared.

His body was surrounded by five-colored lightning, and his face was exactly the same as Ning Fa's; he was Ning Fa's nascent soul.

The nascent soul was staring intently at the silver lightning pearl, its little face filled with longing.

Instantly, the nascent soul formed hand seals, then opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of silver lightning fire, enveloping the bead, which gradually began to melt within the silver lightning fire.

Ning Fa's nascent soul was overjoyed. With a quick hand gesture, the silver lightning pearl, enveloped in five-colored lightning, flew towards it and was swallowed whole.

The nascent soul's face immediately showed a satisfied expression. It rubbed its little belly, and then with a flash of white light, it landed back on Ning Fa's head.

Ning Fa reopened his eyes, feeling a warm sensation within his body. He was overjoyed, for he could sense a pure power, of the same origin as his own, slowly strengthening his nascent soul.

Ning Fa immediately began to refine this power, and dense silver arcs of electricity began to appear on the surface of his body. Behind him, a figure resembling a thunder giant slowly rose up, which was Ning Fa's Divine Firmament Dharma Image.

It also sat cross-legged in mid-air, its hands forming strange hand seals. Streams of silver light flowed erratically along mysterious patterns on its body, and the aura emanating from its Dharma form was slowly increasing.

Two days later, Ning Fa slowly finished his practice, and the strange phenomena around him disappeared.

He opened his eyes, his face now filled with surprise and delight.

That ancient source thunder core actually had a great tonic effect on his cultivation of the Divine Firmament Dharma Form.

Although he had only refined about 20% of that power in the past two days, the effect was still far greater than Ning Fa's cultivation of the Divine Firmament Dharma Form over the past few years.

Ning Fa estimated that if he could completely refine this power, he would not be so far from the next stage of the Divine Firmament Dharma Aspect—the Spirit Aspect Realm, also known as the First Transformation Realm. He might even reach half or more of it.

Such a strong effect naturally surprised Ningfa greatly.

Ning Fa also began to speculate about what the Ancient Origin Thunder Core actually was.

It is very likely that it was refined from the nascent soul of a Nascent Soul cultivator who practiced the Ancient Origin Thunder Scripture, specifically referring to a cultivator who practiced the problematic version of the Ancient Origin Thunder Scripture.

Clearly, this counterfeit technique was most likely deliberately spread by Lei Ming.

The goal is to keep them in captivity.

Lei Ming must be cultivating the true Ancient Thunder Scripture, so to him, cultivators who cultivate fake techniques are probably like pigs and sheep being raised in captivity.

Once these people advance to the Nascent Soul realm, their Nascent Souls will be like meat from pigs or sheep to Lei Ming, having a great nourishing effect.

It can also be used to refine this special ancient source thunder core to create ancient spirits.

Ning Fa even felt that refining this Ancient Origin Thunder Core would require more than just one or two Nascent Soul cultivators.

Ning Fa had also cultivated the true Ancient Origin Thunder Scripture technique, which is why his Divine Firmament Dharma Aspect had such a great improvement after absorbing this Ancient Origin Thunder Core.

Ning Fa sighed, a complex expression appearing in his eyes.

He now roughly knows how to save Bai Yueqiu and Cang Lei, although it would be somewhat cruel to them. But there is no time to lose, otherwise it might be too late.

With that thought, Ning Fa took a step and disappeared from the room.

Soon, Ningfa arrived at another secret room nearby.

Bai Yueqiu sat blankly on a stone bed, black lightning flashing in her eyes from time to time, while her hands and feet were each bound by a thin silver chain.

Ning Fa stretched out his right hand, and a five-colored lightning beam shot into Bai Yueqiu's abdomen.

The next moment, the nascent soul that had mostly turned into black crystals in Bai Yueqiu's dantian was enveloped by five-colored lightning.

Then the black light in Bai Yueqiu's eyes slowly faded, and he regained some clarity, but his expression looked extremely painful.

She looked at Ning Fa and said tremblingly, "Fellow Daoist Ning, there's no need to waste your energy. I'm probably beyond saving. Rather than turning into a monster without self-awareness, just kill me now."

Ning Fa looked at her solemnly and said, "Fellow Daoist Bai, your condition is not incurable, but the cost will be very high."

The root of the problem lies in the magical power generated by your cultivation of the Ancient Thunder Scripture.

If I want to save you, I will have to absorb all the magical power within you.

In this way, you will return to the first level of Qi Refining, the initial stage of cultivation.

If you wish to return to the Nascent Soul stage, you must switch to a different cultivation method and continue your training step by step. However, you should no longer need to undergo the tribulation of lightning. What do you think?

Bai Yueqiu was taken aback for a moment, then she said without hesitation, "As long as I can maintain my own identity, what is this price? Fellow Daoist Ning, please cast your spell."
