You've only been cultivating for a few years, and you're already talking about cultivating

Lei Leilei?

Qi Fei's gaze swept across the space.

Along the banks of the River of Light, amidst the grass and trees, at the foot of the walls of the golden city, countless tiny figures, no bigger than ants, stood, sat, and knelt, but Lei Leilei was not among them.

"I'm trapped by this evil monk," the voice rang out again, more urgent than before, """on his body."

Qi Fei's gaze finally fell on the golden Buddha.

The dragon-like lightning bolt was still meandering across the golden Buddha's body.

From the shoulders to the waist, and from the waist up the spine, silvery-white lightning flickered on the golden body, like a dragon bound by chains, struggling desperately but unable to break free from the golden light's restraint.

Qi Fei stared at the bolt of lightning for a moment.

There can't be any mistake.

That was Lei Leilei.

In this spiritual space, his image was no longer that of a monk wearing a dark robe and surrounded by faint electric light, but rather a bolt of lightning bound to the golden Buddha.

Its dragon-like form and silvery-white light echoed Qi Fei's silver light, but that light had dimmed considerably.

"How can I save you?" Qi Fei asked, following the voice.

"Big guy, you're so big!" Lei Leilei's voice was filled with barely suppressed anxiety. "Of course you should beat him up!"

Lei Leilei was dragged in amidst the chaos.

He came from the Five Thunder Sect, and his trip to the Yue Kingdom was for a thousand-year-old grievance.

A thousand years ago, the Five Thunder Sect was in turmoil. During the chaos, a disciple stole the sect's treasure, the Five Thunder Cauldron, and fled, eventually settling down in the Yue Kingdom.

Several generations later, the descendants of the thief of the cauldron established their own sect, which is today's Five Cauldrons Sect.

The Five Thunder Cauldrons became the Five Cauldrons Sect.

Thunder magic became a method of alchemy.

When Lei Leilei first arrived in Yue Kingdom, he looked at the alchemists of the Five Cauldrons Sect and felt both amused and exasperated.

The Five Thunder Orthodox Method was practiced incorrectly as it was practiced.

He could understand such a thing. In many cultivation sects, once the true master is gone, the cultivation methods will become distorted.

It's like a sentence being passed on to ten people; by the end, it has almost nothing to do with the original sentence.

After several days of investigation, he had figured out the details of the Five Cauldrons Sect.

The main fighting force of the Five Cauldrons Sect consists of the Four Vajra Guardians, two Dharma Protectors, and one Sect Master. He had a pretty good grasp of their cultivation levels, techniques, and personalities.

He had even planned how to incite conflict between these parties, let them fight amongst themselves, and then seize the cauldron amidst the chaos when the "thunderstorm" broke out, doing so cleanly and efficiently.

The plan can't keep up with the changes.

The bells are ringing.

The sound of the bell was extremely eerie.

As a cultivator at the Three Pure Realms, his cultivation level was not low, but as soon as the bell rang, he felt something pulling him, dragging his consciousness towards a strange place.

It wasn't the suppression of magic, but the erosion of cognition, as if something unseen and intangible was whispering inside.

Fortunately, he had a protective artifact from his sect. That artifact was from the Five Thunder Sect, specifically designed to protect the mind and resist external demons.

Thanks to it, Lei Leilei was not dragged away by the sound of the bell.

But he also knew that the magical artifact could only last for a few days.

But these few days were enough. He made a decisive move and, taking advantage of the chaos caused by the bell tolling over the Min and Yue kingdoms, headed straight for the gate of the Five Cauldrons Sect.

The cultivators of the Five Cauldrons Sect have either been converted or are struggling to survive, leaving the sect's gates empty. This is the perfect opportunity to seize the cauldrons.

Soon, he found Mao Ding, the sect leader of the Five Cauldrons Sect.

Mao Ding was leaning against the Five Thunder Cauldron, struggling to resist the erosion of the bell's sound.

The Five Thunder Cauldron truly lived up to its reputation as the Five Thunder Sect's most prized treasure; its body shimmered with lightning, blocking the bell's sound. However, Mao Ding himself was already exhausted from the bell's torment, his face ashen.

The appearance of Lei Leilei was a double blow to Maoding.

The two started fighting.

Mao Ding's cultivation was not weak, but he was almost worn down by the bell's sound. How could he be a match for Lei Leilei?

After several exchanges, Lei Leilei gained the upper hand. The Five Thunder Cauldron was within reach, and he could almost feel the familiar thunder patterns, the familiar temperature, and the familiar aura on the cauldron.

But then the bell rang again.

This time is different.

This time, the bell rang unusually loudly, as if it exploded in the deepest part of his consciousness. He felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was already in this bizarre and fantastical space.

Mao Ding was next to him, having arrived a step earlier.

Under the golden light, Mao Ding barely struggled. The golden Buddha didn't even glance at him before he knelt down, chanting, "Following the great vow, I will deliver all those suffering in the sea of ​​suffering."

Even with tears on his face, he was as devout as a child who had found his home.

Lei Leilei is different.

He has protective magical artifacts, his own cultivation level, and his own understanding!

He is a disciple of the Five Thunder Sect, practices thunder magic, and believes in the Five Thunder Orthodox Dharma!

But the golden Buddha, and the "Alaya" constructed by countless beings, are constantly instilling new knowledge into him.

Those insights, like water, seeped in through every crack, penetrating every crevice. He could feel his own magical artifacts, knowledge, and cultivation slowly "wearing away."

He's about to collapse.

Fortunately, Qi Fei arrived.

He didn't recognize the silver-white giant at first.

In this space, there are few people who can remain conscious, and those who can remain conscious for this long are unheard of.

He assumed it was some old monster from a reclusive sect who had been startled by the bell and came in to check on the situation.

Until he saw the Zen Kong, the size of a firefly and emitting golden light, next to Qi Fei.

He had met the monks at Chanxin Temple.

Therefore, the silver giant might be Qi Fei.

The man he met by chance at the pass, who called himself "Fu Ye, a loyalist of the Himalayas," and who looked ordinary with nothing special about him, was actually a silver-white giant in this spiritual space.

No wonder Zenkong calls him "Big Guy".

He certainly is.

Without hesitation, Lei Leilei, despite the erosion of her understanding, spoke anxiously.

"Big guy, you're so strong, of course you should beat him up!"

He was waiting for Qi Fei to say "okay," or "wait for me to gather my strength," or any words that would give him hope.

Then he heard the answer.

Qi Fei said with a hint of helplessness, "I can't do it. I don't have the Dao Proving Method; I'm just a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage."

"Damn it..." Lei Leilei couldn't help but want to curse: "What kind of loyalists are you from Xishan? You don't even have a method to prove your Dao!"

"This is just killing the old man..."

He then heard Qi Fei say, "A small, insignificant sect. That's precisely why I came out to search!"

"The Dharma of Enlightenment! The Dharma of Enlightenment!" Lei Leilei felt the golden Buddha's gaze seem to lower. He knew that once he was converted, his knowledge would become the golden Buddha.

And he was no longer a disciple of the Five Thunder Sect!

That being the case...

"I have a method; listen carefully!"
