Under the healing magic, Wang Xing's injuries quickly improved. Only Ge Qun's severed arm was more difficult to heal, so it was clear that he would not continue exploring the Thunder Domain.
The Yang family head looked at Bai Mo and the other two, who were still unharmed, and asked, "Gentlemen, would you be interested in going in to explore further?"
"I'll wait a bit, my magic energy is a little low," Wang Xing said immediately. He had just been resisting the lightning inside, which had also greatly depleted his magic energy and stamina, so he needed to rest.
Patriarch Yang naturally understood this. He then turned his gaze to Bai Mo and the other person.
"My cultivation is not even as good as Master Hunter Wang's, so I won't embarrass myself by showing off. I'm truly sorry to disappoint Patriarch Yang's expectations."
As soon as Yang Ping's gaze fell upon them, the presiding judge immediately said, "Perhaps he was frightened by Ge Qun's appearance, or perhaps something else."
Bai Mo glanced at him, then met the gaze of the Yang family head and nodded slightly.
"I was just about to go in and take a look. Patriarch Yang can look forward to it."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step and headed into the Thunder Domain.
Before he even got close, crackling crimson lightning flowed from his body, instantly transforming into a graceful dragon maiden before vanishing into bolts of lightning and merging back into Bai Mo's body.
Crimson and dark blue lightning transformed his clothes into a lightning robe, exuding an aura of majesty and dominance.
As soon as one steps into the fiery red lightning field, the raging, chaotic fiery red lightning seemed to be its subjects seeing their monarch, and they all stepped back, making way for a straight path.
"this"
The hunter master originally looked down on Bai Mo because he was more handsome than him.
Especially when he enters a lightning domain, he has to pretend to conjure up a lightning robe. So pretentious!
Why didn't I think of that back then! Wang Xing muttered to himself.
But seeing the blazing red lightning field automatically retreat and separate, Wang Xing's eyes widened immediately.
"What's going on?"
"It should be that elemental spirit."
The head of the Yang family watched this scene with a smile. The more steadily Bai Mo walked, the more at ease he felt.
"Master Wang Xing may have been engrossed in missions in the wild, so we don't know him."
"His name is Bai Mo, and he possesses a lightning elemental holy spirit. This must be the power of that elemental pet."
"I see." Upon hearing this, Wang Xing nodded.
"It's a pity that he doesn't properly nurture such a powerful contracted beast. He's still just a commander, and his lightning cultivation is only at the high level. I'm afraid he won't be able to cross the Lightning Domain."
"I'm lying here," Ge Qun said sourly.
Upon hearing this, the presiding judge beside him suddenly made a sincere suggestion:
"If Bai Mo fails, why not have him possess Brother Ge Qun with the Lightning Elemental Holy Spirit? That might help you pass."
Ge Qun's expression stiffened. On the other side, Wang Xing and the Yang family head were somewhat tempted.
We can't count on Ge Qun, but there are still two super-level lightning mages.
They didn't think a high-level lightning mage could last long.
Ding Yumin glanced at the presiding judge, her gaze shifting slightly before sweeping over the other spectators in the line.
Within the Thunder Domain, Bai Mo had already arrived at the location where Wang Xing had previously reached.
The power of the lightning here has indeed reached the level of a Soul Seed. Controlling it with his lightning manipulation abilities is somewhat difficult.
Therefore, he stopped trying to force Thunder to back down.
The surrounding blazing red lightning surged like a waterfall, but it was all absorbed by the lightning robe on his body.
The bright moon continuously conveyed to him thoughts of joy and longing.
After the power of the lightning here was enhanced to the level of a soul seed, she kept absorbing it.
The blazing red lightning was also constantly improving her cultivation.
Therefore, Bai Mo did not unleash his full speed to rush towards the entrance of the inner tomb.
Instead, it walked in slowly, letting the bright moon devour the lightning.
With the bright moon shining, the thunder here cannot harm him.
In contrast, Bai Mo was considering how this lightning field was generated.
He was very curious about whether there was a soul seed here, or something else.
The judge outside wasn't wrong; he really needed to strengthen Diana's abilities.
Thirty seconds passed quickly, and Bai Mo had already penetrated four thousand meters. As the lightning field surged and continuously condensed into lightning arrows, the lightning crackled, and he could already see the inner tomb wall not far away.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
Thunderous arrows surged forth, like a torrential downpour, yet even more terrifying than a downpour.
Within a 4,000-meter radius, every arrow was extremely concentrated, and every strike was a silent, deadly beam of light.
The first wave of lightning struck him, and the explosive lightning directly activated his armor and magical artifacts. Upon seeing this, Bai Mo knew that the Blazing Lightning Arrow could not be blocked by Jiao Yue's lightning resistance alone.
"A chaotic vortex!"
A vortex of multicolored black appeared above Bai Mo's head. With the support of his high-level spiritual power, unless it was a top-level magic, it could not break through his chaotic vortex.
The vast and mighty arrows of lightning were thus absorbed into the vortex, and the surging lightning, like a flood, could not get any closer to him.
"Chaos System!" Outside, Wang Xing's eyes narrowed, and he immediately lost the will to compare.
Why should a destruction mage compare himself to a bunch of scoundrels like chaos mages?
At this moment, the entire raging thunder field formed an extremely huge storm of blazing lightning arrows, and Bai Mo was the eye of the storm.
Immediately afterwards, equally powerful bolts of lightning surged from above Bai Mo's head. The numerous bolts of lightning resembled two armies clashing, unleashing a thunderstorm that shook the entire cemetery.
The lightning overflowing from the thunderstorm was absorbed by the bright moon.
This scene was no less impressive than a battle between a mage corps, leaving Wang Xing and the others outside dumbfounded.
Ten seconds passed quickly, the lightning field subsided, Bai Mo continued forward, and Jiao Yue absorbed the surrounding blazing lightning energy with all her might.
After entering the last kilometer, even more powerful and intense lightning eroded the area, with wisps of lightning bringing a tingling sensation that enveloped the body, along with an even more overwhelming high temperature.
"Nye!!"
Jiaoyue also sensed the power of the lightning here; even she hadn't been completely protected. So she used all her strength.
The crimson and pale yellow patterns on Bai Mo's robe shimmered, and the burning pain brought by the lightning was immediately blocked by her.
Jiaoyue instinctively tried to absorb the power of the Blazing Lightning, but then let out a soft moan in confusion.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?" Bai Mo asked.
"Nye!"
"You can't absorb the lightning?!" Upon hearing this, Bai Mo was slightly surprised. This was the first time he had encountered lightning that even the bright moon couldn't absorb.
"Mmm~~!!"
Suddenly, her robes fluttered, and Jiaoyue let out an excited sound.
Understanding her intent, Bai Mo also grasped Jiao Yue's meaning. His mind was shaken.
"The lightning here is no weaker than your accompanying lightning?!"
He couldn't help but confirm, knowing that although the Qiongyu Tribulation Lightning that Jiaoyue currently possesses is only at the Soul level, its essence is a Heavenly Seed.
However, Jiaoyue does not yet have the strength or ability to evolve the Qiongyu Tribulation Lightning into the power of a Heavenly Seed.
"Since it might be a celestial seed, try to sense it and take it!" Bai Mo said without any politeness.
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding lightning began to surge again, the terrifying voltage like a thunder foot capable of crushing mountains.
"snort!"
Bai Mo raised his hand and pressed down, and a primordial picture appeared above his head, with chaotic energy hanging down like a necklace, absorbing all the lightning that surged from the surrounding area.
But as soon as the absorption power was activated, the crimson lightning within a kilometer radius seemed to have a stress response, becoming even more agitated.
Bai Mo was suddenly stunned. He felt that his Chaos Magic had failed and could not absorb the lightning at all.
The reaction of the lightning field surprised him even more this time. Every strand of the terrifying current within a kilometer was like a thunderbolt, but it no longer condensed into a dense array of arrows.
Standing there, Bai Mo could only feel the surging lightning. The powerful, blazing lightning was like flames, constantly scorching the area and making it incredibly hot.
Even Bai Mo felt a burning pain on his skin and had to put on a protective barrier.
The powerful electromagnetic pressure generated by the surging thunder, along with the intense heat, also descended upon him.
With one hand supporting the sky, the seamless picture spins rapidly, and layers of chaotic tassels continuously fall, blocking the pressure.
Suddenly, the terrifying pressure disappeared, Bai Mo felt light all over, and the abnormally high temperature also vanished abruptly.
Upon dispersing the chaotic diagram, Bai Mo discovered that the blazing red lightning within the kilometer-long area had completely vanished!
However, he did not feel relaxed at all. Just 500 meters ahead, a blazing red arrow condensed and aimed at him.
The arrow was entirely formed from lightning of the highest level of soul seed power within a thousand meters.
The lightning within a kilometer radius was all contained within a single, fiery red arrow, about the length of an arm and the thickness of a finger.
There wasn't a single spark of lightning visible on the surface of the arrow; it looked just like a real arrow.
A terrifying sense of danger enveloped his heart, and a locking sensation even stronger than the Demon-Slaying Sword was upon him. Bai Mo felt as if he were in the eye of a thunderstorm, his entire body pierced by a rain of arrows.
Suppressing the mental shock that would occur if one were locked onto by a powerful attack, Bai Mo suddenly remembered this.
This lightning domain bears too many traces of human intervention and some mechanisms that make it seem completely unlike a place where lightning elemental beings exist. Perhaps there are deeper secrets hidden within.
At this moment, only the area a kilometer away from the center of the entire lightning field still had blazing lightning.
Not daring to be overconfident, layers of spatial crystal walls have already been cast up in front of Bai Mo.
Immediately following was a chaotic vortex.
After the vortex, a large, howling white airflow surrounded him, forming a thick wall of wind.
Immediately following, a massive, platinum-gold mountain range appeared with a thunderous roar in the foreground.
Just as the white-gold mountain, as if cast from alloy, rose up, the fiery red arrow shot out suddenly.
Outside the Thunder Domain, everyone could only vaguely sense the incomparably sharp and extremely violent aura.
Through the thin wisps of lightning, one could vaguely see Bai Mo defending something, summoning towering mountains.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Immediately afterwards, they heard a deafening explosion; the massive, majestic mountains, which even a raging flood could only blast open, were suddenly blown apart.
Some broken rocks flew far beyond the lightning field and landed with a thud in front of them.
At this moment, the penetrating power of lightning was brought to its absolute limit.
The majestic mountain was pierced and blasted open, and even the chaotic vortex only lasted for three seconds before being pierced through.
The three-layered spatial crystal walls shattered one after another, and the thick wind wall only slowed down the speed of the blazing red arrows.
Just as the blazing lightning arrow was about to reach them, their eyes, which had been reflecting the blazing red lightning, suddenly turned into a white-gold color.
The Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams that had unknowingly unfolded beneath my feet were now bathed in a magnificent white-gold hue.
As if the star palace of the White Emperor had fallen, a vast expanse of earth element gathered, and a heavy and solemn aura immediately enveloped this cemetery space.
"The Earth Sinks - A Gift from the Jade Dragon!"
The immense pressure descended, but the ground did not collapse. Amidst the rumbling and shaking, a platinum platform rose up.
The grand platform, square in shape, was filled with a strong aura of killing intent, surrounded by a white gold dragon body that resembled jade, with each scale clearly visible.
The jade dragon continued upwards, and its head bowed down on the golden platform, forming the platform itself. Bai Mo then stood atop the dragon's head.
With a deafening roar, the blazing red lightning arrow crashed into the golden jade dragon platform.
The arrow, imbued with penetrating and explosive power, exploded!
Click, click, click!
The Golden Dragon Platform cracked inch by inch, and as the entire platform collapsed, the Jade Dragon seemed to awaken.
The enormous, majestic dragon head twisted, facing the folded, fiery red arrow that shot straight at the white ink.
The jade dragon head, with its jade-like texture, opens its head, its white-gold luster exuding a sharp and dignified aura.
A dragon's roar that shook the entire cemetery resounded, and a vast expanse of white-gold sword energy could be seen forming a torrent, roaring out of the jade dragon's mouth and surging like a great river onto the blazing red arrow.
The blazing lightning arrows were now at their limit, having broken through several of Bai Mo's defenses, each one formidable.
At this moment, the gift from the Jade Dragon, the Golden Dragon Platform, as a fourth-level super-grade earth magic, is inherently designed for defense and counterattack.
It absorbed most of the energy from the blazing lightning arrows, was further enhanced by the Bagua diagram, and had the amplification of its own Heavenly Seed.
The power of this counterattack is no less than that of a mage with a Heavenly Seed casting a super-level three spell.
The platinum-gold sword energy was entirely condensed from thick rock and sand, and it was specifically designed to counter lightning. With this imbalance, the blazing red arrow was completely knocked down.
Bai Mo glanced at the crimson arrow that lay on the ground after the magic disappeared; it hadn't vanished.
He glanced again at the disappearing crimson lightning field outside.
Considering the heavily man-made nature of this area, the power of the blazing lightning here is essentially no weaker than her own primal lightning.
He immediately had a guess in his mind, and with a wave of his hand, he picked up the arrow lying on the ground.
He remembered Yang Lin saying that this tomb belonged to the only ancestor in the Yang family who had ever received recognition from a totem.
That ancestor also placed the totem artifact and the totem secret realm here as burial objects.
Wellwood belongs to the element of wood, and in the Eight Trigrams, wood represents wind and thunder.
The Vermilion Bird governs fire, so it's plausible that this arrow is a fire-thunder arrow.
In the blink of an eye, a soul connection had been established between him and the fire-thunder arrow.
Immediately, a feeling of joy and elation emanated from the arrow.
However, Jiaoyue felt a pang of regret.
With a thought, Bai Mo released the possession and, using the Fire Thunder Arrow, drew upon the remaining lightning in the entire thunder field, injecting it all into Jiao Yue's body.
The Fire and Thunder Arrow can be combined into a single, most powerful arrow, or it can be divided into countless arrows for area-of-effect attacks.
Only the area within a kilometer radius of the inner tomb is truly enveloped by the lightning transformed from the fire and thunder arrows.
The fiery red lightning outside is the lightning field created by the true owner of the tomb.
That is why the Moon Goddess was able to absorb it.
However, what puzzled Bai Mo was that even though he had obtained the totem artifact, he still couldn't use it.
It can't be used. How did it attack me just now? And it hit me so hard.
A bunch of question marks appeared above Bai Mo's head.
After communicating with the Fire and Thunder Arrow, I learned that what I had just experienced was a ceremony to recognize a master.
The one who can withstand its blow is qualified to become its master.
It's quite a ritualistic thing to do.
However, if you do this, you will be rejected by other totem devices that are already bound to me.
Bai Mo silently complained in his heart, and mentally retracted the Fire Thunder Arrow.
His gaze shifted to the Yang family head and the others who had approached as the lightning was absorbed by the bright moon.
"Brother, your Lightning Elemental Saint Spirit Level 6 is amazing! It can even absorb lightning!" Wang Xing said enviously, glancing at the bright moon that had stood for a hundred years, breathing in and out lightning.
"That's right, from now on, Master Lei won't be able to hold his head up in front of Judge Bai," the judge said in an exaggerated compliment.
"Hehe, Judge Bai is certainly capable, otherwise he wouldn't have become the benefactor of the ancient capital."
The head of the Yang family said with a smile, seemingly very satisfied with his idea of inviting Bai Mo.
The others also glanced at Bai Mo to varying degrees.
Some of them had heard of Bai Mo, while others had never heard of him at all.
At this moment, there was a certain degree of caution, given the thunder and the aura that had just erupted within.
These people think that's all there is to it.
"Master Yang, you don't need to be so polite. I'm just doing this for money."
Shaking his head, Bai Mo stopped the praise, believing that only Wang Xing was genuinely praising him.
Others, to varying degrees, had ulterior motives.
"The recapture and relocation of the secret realm needs to be carried out within the secret realm itself. Why don't you all come with me and take a look?"
Patriarch Yang waved his hand, shattering the inner wall of the serpentine tomb, seemingly unconcerned about disturbing his ancestor's peace, and extended an invitation:
"My ancestors must have stored all the good stuff in the secret realm, and maybe even raised some demons and monsters. I would appreciate it if you could take any of those treasures you like."
"In that case, we shall accept it without further ado."
Ge Qundao said that the wound on one arm had already healed. He had lost an arm, and after he went out, he would need to find a skilled healer to restore it, which would be another big expense.
If there's a benefit to be gained, they'll naturally be the first to agree.
Even if it's just some antiques and calligraphy, there are many collectors who need them.
Upon hearing this, Bai Mo glanced at the inner tomb and realized that the secret realm was quite large.
Suddenly, a voice transmission entered his mind. Bai Mo glanced at Ding Yumin and nodded slightly.
The group followed the head of the Yang family into the inner tomb. The entrance to the secret realm was right inside the main tomb chamber, without any attempt to conceal it.
After glancing at the group and then at Ding Yumin, Bai Mo followed Wang Xing inside.
Like most secret realms, the secret realm was shrouded in a gray haze.
It wasn't pitch black, but it had a distinctly otherworldly feel, desolate and bleak.
The secret realm was not flat; at least in the center, Bai Mo saw a high mountain in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid.
The well token in his hand seemed to sense something, and the sound string clearly probed the area of the entire secret realm.
At this distance of fifty kilometers, it can already be considered a large secret realm. No wonder the Yang family doesn't want anything else but this secret realm.
The head of the Yang family turned his head and laughed, saying, "Don't worry, Judge Bai, the Yang family will always keep its word."
After speaking, he loudly addressed the many mages in the group:
"Everyone is free to explore on their own, and while you're at it, clear out the demons within the secret realm. We need to set up an array here. We'll meet up on that high mountain in the middle later."
He nodded to the mages responsible for collecting and transporting the secret realm.
Everyone immediately agreed, and Bai Mo had no objection, as he was eager to find Jing Mu'an.
So the twelve people in the group immediately dispersed.
Just as Bai Mo was about to pull Ding Yumin away, Wang Xing came over and said:
"Bai... Brother Bai, how about we go together?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Mo gave him a strange look and shook his head.
"I have some things to do that I can't do with anyone else. You'd better find somewhere to hide, buddy."
"Why?!" Wang Xing asked in surprise.
Bai Mo didn't say anything. He took Ding Yumin with him and, in a flash, appeared on the high mountain in the middle of the entire secret realm.
There was no need to take out the Jingmu Han token for further testing; the moment Bai Mo saw the Heavenly Pool on the mountain, he understood.
He didn't rush down; he first contacted Lingling through the telepathic mark, and then Leng Qing.
Just as they were about to exchange a few more words, the audio transmission was suddenly cut off.
At the same time, a thin layer of cyan-gold light curtain rose in the sky above the entire secret realm.
The light curtain rose from the four directions of east, west, south, and north, gradually expanding until it completely enveloped the sky above the secret realm.
"It's starting, let's go down too."
"Why didn't you invite Wang Xing? He's fine."
"no need."
Shaking his head, Bai Mo pulled Ding Yumin into the Heavenly Pool.
Just before entering the secret realm, Ding Yumin suddenly sent a telepathic message saying that there was a problem with two people in the team.
They must have come for him.
Bai Mo naturally had no doubt about Ding Yumin's control over the mind.
After entering the secret realm, perhaps because he relaxed, he was discovered by Ding Yumin again.
Bai Mo couldn't figure out who was targeting him for a moment, but he guessed that it was probably more than just the three that Yu Mian had discovered.
Therefore, he wanted to absorb the essence of Jingmu Han as quickly as possible, and then have some fun with these people.
It's all the same stuff anyway.
At the entrance, the Yang family head bowed and addressed the man with the West Asian features:
"Lord Cade, the blockade is complete. No spatial teleportation will be able to leave the secret realm."
"Very good! I will put in a good word for you with Father!"
"Bai Mo is ungrateful and has offended the great Holy Judge. This is what I should do!" Patriarch Yang bowed again.
"Heh!" Cade gave a strange smile, looking at the mountain in the center of the secret realm, and said disdainfully:
"Offend you? No, perhaps I should introduce you to a few people."
Ancient capital, Bell Tower and Pagoda of the Master.
Han Ji frowned as he looked at the intelligence report in his hand.
"What are these guys doing in the ancient capital? Aren't they staying in the holy city enjoying their retirement?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and put the intelligence report down.
The indoor lights shone down, illuminating a line of words—
Three people, suspected to be Saint Shadow Mages, arrived in the ancient capital a day ago and have just left. (End of Chapter)
