Extracting all things: My attributes grow infinitely.

The battle for the Thunder Pool teleportation array erupted instantly.

"Get out of the way!"

"There are only four spots left, and I'm determined to get them! Get out of here!"

Hundreds of figures rushed toward the teleportation array like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey!

After the rules regarding the limited number of people allowed in the teleportation array were clarified, the semblance of civility that these upper-realm cultivators had maintained among themselves was completely shattered.

Some people use others as stepping stones to gain leverage, while others simply unleash their secret weapon, aiming straight for the heart of those blocking their way!

The several prodigies standing at the front moved at the same time.

Ji Hong took a step forward, and a majestic aura suddenly rose around him.

The aura emanating from him was like that of a king in court, so noble that it made the surrounding cultivators' legs go weak and they almost had to kneel down!

Lan Ruoxi followed closely behind, her delicate hand rising slightly.

Whoosh!

A dragon of ice, formed from condensed azure water, shot into the sky from her palm, baring its fangs and claws, causing chaos and destruction wherever it passed!

"Amitabha."

Huiwu softly uttered a Buddhist chant and clasped his hands together.

Golden Buddhist light emanated from his body, like the wrathful eyes of a Vajra, directly knocking several surrounding cultivators away!

Liu Bai closed his folding fan, his smile gentle. He raised his hand and pointed, but no strange phenomena appeared. The several cultivators blocking his way collapsed limply.

The moment these four made their move, it was like four tigers charging into a flock of sheep. Ordinary cultivators, even those at the Qi Refining Perfection stage, had almost no chance to fight back against them!

In just a few breaths, a large area around the teleportation array had been cleared.

Blood stained the stone platform in front of the battle.

And during the clearing process.

The four of them also communicated telepathically with great tacit understanding.

"Gentlemen, there are four more slots available at this teleportation array, which should be enough for us."

Liu Bai waved his folding fan and said with a smile.

One for each person.

Ji Hong said calmly, his tone leaving no room for argument.

The other two didn't speak, but they exchanged glances, clearly agreeing with the distribution method.

The Nine Heavens Cleansing Marrow Thunder Pool was a privilege enjoyed only by core disciples of the three holy lands during the golden age of ancient cultivation civilization!

Even though Ji Hong was the sixth prince of the Qian Ting, he had the right to take whatever cultivation resources he wanted in the entire Southern Region, and he was very envious of such an opportunity!

Needless to say, the others are even less of a concern.

Upon hearing this, Liu Bai's smile grew even more gentle: "In that case, then..."

"Unite against external threats!"

The four people moved their hands in a surprisingly synchronized manner.

Their offensive was not directed at each other, but was instead poured entirely onto their competitors on all sides!

Everyone knows there are exactly four spots available, so there's no need to ruin things now.

Once you eliminate the other competitors, this opportunity will be firmly in your grasp!

As for the rest, they can only blame their fate!

Screams rose and fell.

With the combined efforts of the four Qi Refining Perfection geniuses, those cultivators who tried to take advantage of the chaos fell like grass being cut down!

Of the five prodigies present, only Gu Changfeng remained standing in place, seemingly uninterested in the opportunity presented by the Thunder Pool.

His gaze remained fixed on a continent surrounded by sword energy.

The opportunity at Leichi was good.

However, it is not suitable for sword cultivators.

He had a premonition that if he could ascend to that place where sword energy soared to the sky, his swordsmanship would surely advance even further!

Therefore, no matter how tempting the opportunity at the Thunder Pool was, he didn't even glance at it.

Just as the four prodigies were wreaking havoc on all sides...

Among the crowd, Jiang Chuan's gaze was also fixed on the Thunder Pool Continent.

The lucky cultivator who was the first to set foot on the Thunder Pool Continent is now enveloped in a sky full of lightning, sitting cross-legged and motionless.

One breath

Two breaths,

Three breaths...

The cultivator's aura not only did not weaken, but visibly grew stronger!

Tempered by lightning, with true essence surging, this lightning pool is indeed a real blessing, not some harmful trap!

"He's not dead."

A glint of light flashed in Jiang Chuan's eyes.

Only now did he finally make the decision to seize this opportunity.

He did not readily believe the one-sided account given by the previous cultivator.

Even if it's a forbidden zone.

Holy land or whatever.

Even the greatest opportunities are only worth enjoying if you're alive!

This caution is precisely what sets him apart from other practitioners.

Because Jiang Chuan has the talent to extract everything.

There is a Starry Sky Mirror.

There is more than one path to becoming stronger.

They have something to rely on.

Therefore, you have confidence in everything!

"Now!"

With a thought, the Starry Sky Mirror suddenly appeared behind Jiang Chuan's head.

The twelve light prisms rotated in unison, their deep blue light flowing like a dragon between the prisms.

The Azure Emperor form unfolded instantly.

At that moment, his figure also reached its maximum speed!

A powerful amplification force, like the Yangtze River, poured into his limbs and bones!

Followed by.

Jiang Chuan raised his palm, and a bright white light shone from the center!

That tiny glimmer of light, which was initially only the size of a grain of rice, expanded wildly in an instant!

The intense light was compressed by a terrifying force.

Compress it again.

Finally, they coalesced into a sun that was dazzlingly bright!

"go."

Jiang Chuan flicked his finger.

That "sun," compressed to its absolute limit, suddenly fell onto the field!

boom!!!

The Mingguang erupted!

A fiery heatwave sweeps through!

The terrifying power of the second-grade divine [Mingtian Zhou] was unleashed to its fullest extent at this moment!

The dazzling light almost blinded people, and the scorching heat forced the four prodigies to stop what they were doing and activate their respective abilities to deal with the situation.

"Who goes there!"

"Such domineering power!"

"This is... a second-grade divine ability?!"

Amid gasps of surprise, the crowd could only barely cover their eyes with their sleeves.

Jiang Chuan's strange phenomenon was not directed at any one person.

It's just a smokescreen.

Therefore, the four prodigies quickly resolved the situation.

But just as their vision returned, they saw a figure already standing on the teleportation array!

"It's you!"

A resentful voice suddenly rang out.

Ji Hong stared intently at Jiang Chuan, a rare ferocious look appearing on his usually composed face.

He recognized this true essence.

That day in the Federation, it was this very aura that shattered his spiritual imprint and caused him to lose face!

The identity of the person before them was self-evident.

Lord of the Origin Realm—Jiang Chuan!

The others were also stunned by Jiang Chuan's attack.

"This is... a second-grade divine ability!"

"How is this possible! Even the primordial energy of those few prodigies doesn't reach this level!"

"Who exactly is this person?!"

Some people stared intently at the treasure mirror behind Jiang Chuan's head, their expressions shifting. That magic weapon was also extraordinary!

In an instant, countless surprised and uncertain gazes fell upon the figure on the teleportation array.

Jiang Chuan merely glanced at the crowd indifferently.

Then, his gaze fell on Ji Hong.

"it's me."

He spoke slowly and calmly, "I, Jiang, will take this opportunity. You may use the remaining spots as you see fit."

As soon as he finished speaking, lightning suddenly blazed up on the teleportation array, engulfing him completely.

……

"Hiss... Could this person be the Lord of the Origin Realm!?"

"Judging from the Sixth Prince's reaction, it's almost certainly him!"

The lightning from the teleportation array slowly dissipated, and Jiang Chuan's figure had vanished.

But beneath this starry sky, chaos erupted completely.

"So this guy had been hiding among us all along!"

"How dare they! After we've searched for so long, they still dare to show themselves so brazenly!"

"That's the Lord of the Origin Realm? He looks rather ordinary..."

"Nothing special? Didn't you see that second-grade divine power just now? With a flick of his finger, you were dead!"

The monk who had been rebuked shrank back and dared not utter another word.

Ji Hong's face was so gloomy it could drip water.

Although he was displeased by the rumors that he had been humiliated by Jiang Chuan, he did not actually take them seriously.

Because he knew very well that when Jiang Chuan reappeared, it would be the day he would strike and kill him.

At that time.

All the unfounded rumors will naturally fall apart on their own.

But reality slapped him hard in the face. Not only did Jiang Chuan appear, but he also snatched away an opportunity that he was determined to obtain right in front of him!

"That damned ant!"

Ji Hong was seething with hatred. As the most noble member of the Qian Ting royal family in the Southern Region, when had he ever suffered such a great loss at the hands of outsiders?

However, the most pressing issue right now is not Jiang Chuan.

There are only three spots left for the teleportation array.

There are four other contenders.

Ji Hong slowly turned his head.

Lan Ruoxi and Liu Bai looked over at almost the same time.

The three exchanged a glance.

it is more than words.

Ji Hong, Lan Ruoxi, and Liu Bai all hail from the Southern Region.

Cultivators in the Southern Region are of the same blood and are essentially one.

Huiwu was the only one who was a cultivator from the Northern Immortal Alliance.

The Southern Qian Court and the Northern Immortal Alliance have been locked in a power struggle for countless years.

It goes without saying who should be eliminated!

Even better.

Normally, the geniuses of the Southern Region each serve their own masters, and opportunities to join forces like this are extremely rare.

Rather than...

Let's just go for the kill!

Anyway, the feud between Qian Ting and the Immortal Alliance isn't any worse than this one!

The three of them approached Huiwu's direction almost simultaneously.

The killing intent permeated the air silently.

However, at that moment, Huiwu suddenly uttered a Buddhist chant.

"Amitabha."

On that fleshy, bulging face, a shrewdness that seemed completely out of place with his appearance was now revealed.

He clasped his hands together and smiled slightly at the three: "Three benefactors, after much thought, this humble monk has suddenly realized that this opportunity is incompatible with the methods of Buddhist cultivation. Therefore, I will cede this Thunder Pool to you three!"

Having said that, Huiwu actually took a step back, turned around and left without any hesitation.

The three's plans immediately fell through.

Liu Bai chuckled softly, "This monk is quite shrewd."

"Heh, those barbarians in the North aren't very strong, but they're all incredibly cunning."

Ji Hong snorted coldly, his words revealing deep contempt.

The cultivation practices in the north and south of the Heavenly Chapter Realm are quite different.

The Southern Region is ruled by the Qian Court, and all sects and aristocratic families respect the Qian Court. The distribution of benefits also requires the Qian Court's approval.

Naturally, there is no need for fierce competition.

The Immortal Alliance is different.

The rules of the Immortal Alliance are that whoever seizes it gets to keep it. In this environment, the cultivators raised are all shrewd and cunning.

As a prince, Ji Hong naturally had some knowledge of the Immortal Alliance's traditions.

Lan Ruoxi and Liu Bai exchanged a glance.

They had no choice but to give up.

Since the monk withdrew voluntarily, they found it difficult to make a move.

After all, the spot for Lei Chi is right in front of us, there's no need to create unnecessary trouble.

……

the other side.

Thunder Pool Continent.

The moment Jiang Chuan landed, he felt the terrifying pressure of the Thunder Pool.

boom!

boom!

boom!

Thick bolts of lightning, as thick as pythons, crashed down one after another from the dark, oppressive thunderclouds!

He felt a jolt throughout his body as strands of lightning power, like thin snakes, burrowed into his flesh, meridians, and bone marrow!

"hiss……!"

Jiang Chuan gasped, then immediately sat cross-legged and began to circulate the "True Fire Refining Record of the Sun's Crown".

hum!

The pure Yang energy surged and began to circulate.

That scorching and domineering true essence, like a small sun, circulated within his body, fiercely clashing with the thunderous power that had penetrated his body.

Amidst this constant resistance, Jiang Chuan quickly noticed something amiss.

His pure Yang essence, under the repeated tempering of thunder, showed faint signs of solidification!

"It really works!"

Jiang Chuan was overjoyed.

This Thunder Pool truly can condense true essence!

but.

He quickly calmed down.

This place is only the outer edge of the Thunder Pool, with only thin thunderclouds overhead, and the power of the falling lightning is extremely weak.

At this rate of refinement, it will likely take a very long time.

And in this sacred land of stars, the thing we can least afford to waste is time.

Jiang Chuan raised his head.

Looking into the distance.

In the center of the Thunder Pool Continent, the concentration of thunderous power has reached an alarming level.

The lightning that filled the sky had become so dense that it turned into liquid, pouring down from the heavens and gathering on the ground to form a real pool of lightning!

The pool was filled with churning magma and crisscrossing purple lightning, as if even the void itself was about to be burned through.

Jiang Chuan only glanced at it from afar, but felt a piercing pain in his soul.

What alarmed Jiang Chuan even more was that there seemed to be a terrifying creature slowly moving around in that thunder pool!

The fleeting silhouette resembled a dragon or a python, its entire body coiled with silvery-purple liquid lightning!

"Good heavens..."

Jiang Chuan's gaze gradually turned serious.

If he can enter the center of the Thunder Pool, the refining power he can obtain will surely increase exponentially.

But the same applies.

He could very well be struck by that terrifying lightning and reduced to ashes on the spot!

After a moment's thought, Jiang Chuan began to slowly move towards the center of the Thunder Pool.

Until they were still a hundred feet away from that Thunder Pool.

Just stopped.

The thunder here has become terrifyingly violent.

Almost every moment, hundreds of bolts of lightning struck him, leaving the ground scorched and cracked.

"This is it."

Jiang Chuan gritted his teeth and sat down cross-legged.

This place is already close to the limit of his Dharma body's endurance, and the refining power here is far superior to that outside the Thunder Pool.

He closed his eyes.

The pure Yang essence circulated once again.

He allowed the raging lightning to continue to bombard him.

The pain of being tempered by lightning is far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

Jiang Chuan's Dharma body quickly began to char and crack, revealing a dense array of cracks.

But then the Starry Sky Mirror behind his head suddenly shone.

In an instant.

Then it was restored to its original state!

Amidst this constant cycle of rebirth and destruction, the pure Yang essence flowing within his body like fiery clouds began to slowly transform into a more solidified state...
