The Primordial Era: The Mythical Path Beginning with the Jie Sect

Chapter 16 The Uncontrollable Purple Lightning Hammer Unleashes a Grand Array
"Hmph! Who cares about you? I'm just looking for a target."

After receiving permission, Bixiao was somewhat pleased, but because Zhou Chen was present, she unusually retorted, not wanting to lose her senior sister's dignity in front of Zhou Chen.

While speaking, she glanced at Zhou Chen and breathed a sigh of relief when she realized he wasn't paying attention to them.

Just then, Zhou Chen's voice suddenly came.

"Senior sister, fire in this direction!"

Bi Xiao was taken aback, but didn't care. It was just the power of the Shiyan spiritual treasure; it didn't matter where they fought, as long as innocent people weren't harmed.

The other women didn't pay much attention, but Jinling Shengmu felt that something was about to happen. After all, if her guess was right, then Zhou Chen must have discovered something. But she had no reason to stop it, so she could only watch it happen and hope to find some clues from it.

Just then, Bi Xiao summoned the Purple Lightning Hammer and poured his magic power into it. The Purple Lightning Hammer immediately shone brightly, and the aura of an innate spiritual treasure emanated from it. Streams of lightning filled with destructive power continuously roamed around the Purple Lightning Hammer.

Zhou Chen also secretly activated the Thunder Dao Law contained within the Purple Lightning Hammer, causing its power to surge directly. The hammer flew into the air, and its power as a top-grade innate spiritual treasure began to revive.

The aura of the Thunder Dao Law within the Purple Lightning Hammer continuously communicated with the Thunder Dao Law in the primordial world. Before long, dark clouds filled the sky, and terrifying lightning flashed intermittently within them, filling the void with a suffocating atmosphere.

Bi Xiao was terrified. "I haven't even used half of my magic power, and it's already this terrifying? Is this a top-grade innate spiritual treasure? This is too terrifying!"
Gui Ling, Wu Dang, Yun Xiao, and Qiong Xiao all looked solemn. The lightning flashing intermittently in the dark clouds above brought them a sense of impending death. Was this magical treasure really that terrifying?

"Bixiao, quickly retrieve your magical treasure! This power is too great; it could easily affect us. And if these lightning bolts fall, who knows how much bloodshed they will cause!"

Yunxiao suddenly remembered something and hurriedly called out to Bixiao.

Bixiao was startled by Yunxiao's shout. After she came to her senses, she hurriedly said "Oh" and tried to retrieve her magic weapon in a flurry, but it was no use no matter how many times she tried.

He immediately put on a mournful face and said to Yunxiao in a tearful voice:
"Big sister, I... I can't control the Purple Lightning Hammer anymore, I can't take it back at all."

Yunxiao and the others' expressions changed drastically. They hurriedly activated their own spiritual treasures for defense. They couldn't care less about the amount of bloodshed Bixiao would cause now; their priority was to save their own lives!
Of the group, only Jin Ling remained relatively calm, a knowing look flashing across her eyes, further confirming her suspicions.

Zhou Chen also hid within the group's defenses and said to the somewhat flustered Bi Xiao:

“Senior sister, since we can’t stop it, let’s see if we can control the direction of its attack. I’ve checked the direction I just pointed to, and there are no living beings there. If we can control the direction of its attack, we can minimize the killing.”

Upon hearing Zhou Chen's words, Bi Xiao immediately began to take control and found that, just as Zhou Chen had said, she was indeed able to control the direction of the attack.

"Zhou Chen, that's great! I can control the direction of the Purple Lightning Hammer."

Before Zhou Chen could reply, Yunxiao immediately reprimanded him.

"If we can control it, what are we waiting for? Release it now! If we let the Purple Lightning Hammer accumulate any more, the attack will be unimaginably devastating!"

After being reprimanded, Bixiao could only obediently control the Purple Lightning Hammer to attack in the direction Zhou Chen pointed.

A bolt of purple lightning shot out from the Purple Lightning Hammer—the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning—carrying unparalleled power as it struck the direction Zhou Chen had chosen, shattering the void in its path. The lightning in the sky followed closely behind, striking the same spot.

When they were still thousands of meters above the sea, suddenly, the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning seemed to strike something, making a loud noise. Immediately afterwards, thousands of lightning bolts followed, causing the void to tremble violently.

When the sound stopped and the mist dissipated, a huge array appeared before Zhou Chen, Jin Ling, and the others. A massive hole appeared in front of them where the lightning had struck, and the hole was slowly healing.

"This is?"

Yunxiao stared blankly at the enormous array that had appeared, somewhat bewildered. Wasn't he supposed to be testing an innate spiritual treasure? Why was a huge array being created instead?

"It's brimming with primordial spiritual energy, so rich! Let's hurry in, maybe we'll find some unexpected opportunities!"

After Zhou Chen finished speaking, he grabbed Bi Xiao and flew towards the large cave, while also recalling the Purple Lightning Hammer in the air.

Before Yunxiao could stop them, Zhou Chen and Bixiao had already entered. Yunxiao stomped her foot in annoyance, feeling somewhat resentful towards the two.

"Alright, let's hurry in. Just as my junior brother said, there might really be some opportunity inside. And judging from this spiritual energy, this might be one of the legendary Three Immortal Islands. It would be more than enough to serve as our training ground."

Jin Ling comforted Yun Xiao and then flew inside.

The remaining Guiling, Wudang, Yunxiao, and Qiongxiao exchanged glances and followed them inside.

After the group entered, it wasn't long before the large holes in the formation completely healed, and the formation gradually disappeared into the void.

Everything on the sea surface returned to normal, with only the lingering aura of thunder in the air indicating what had just happened.

……

"Such abundant innate spiritual energy! It's in no way inferior to Jin'ao Island! I never imagined that such a celestial island was hidden in the prehistoric world! If I hadn't been testing Zhou Chen's Purple Lightning Hammer, we would have missed this opportunity!"

Bixiao looked around, her eyes shining, and puffed out her chest with a hint of pride, her face clearly showing an expression that she wanted to praise me.

Clearly, this is a huge opportunity for them.

Even though I traveled to the East China Sea recently in search of a fairy island and went through many hardships, I did not encounter such a fairy island.

This time, I was just testing Zhou Chen's Purple Lightning Hammer. A casual strike brought out such a great opportunity. My luck is too good. It's as if the heavens automatically delivered the opportunity to my door.

Could it be that she was favored by the heavens? Bixiao attributed all the credit for discovering this immortal island to herself.

Zhou Chen also flattered her, saying things like, "Senior Sister has great fortune," and "Senior Sister has superb magical powers..."

The wind made even the blue sky feel a little giddy.

After Jin Ling and the others entered, the group began to explore the fairy island.

After flying for a while, they saw a huge tree standing in the distance, exuding the aura of an innate spiritual root.

"An innate spiritual root? And a top-grade one at that?"

Jin Ling and the others cried out in surprise at the same time.

Surprise, shock, and also doubt.

Hongjun, the Dao Ancestor, preached in Zixiao Palace, and there are ten supreme innate spiritual roots in the primordial world.

However, based on what they knew, the top-grade innate spiritual root in front of them was not among the top ten.

This spiritual root soars into the clouds, with a dense canopy and abundant branches and leaves.

The life force emanating from above is so invigorating and incredibly comforting.

Especially the trees are laden with bright green fruit.

It makes people salivate.

Several people walked over with longing expressions on their faces.

Surprisingly, Zhou Chen behind him did not follow, but instead looked to the other side.
