He let out a roar and his right hand trembled slightly. After all, he was seriously injured. Although he had recovered slightly and was suppressed by the Thunder Celestial Temple's pills, allowing him to return to his peak in a short period of time, it was still not enough to use this lightning spell.
Roaring, he clenched his jaw and waved his right hand. Instantly, the descending bolt of lightning transformed into an unimaginable Heavenly might that descended upon Meng Hao.
Zhan Konglie's expression was gloomy and his hands quickly formed seals. He spat out a mouthful of origin energy that landed on the wooden sword. The sword immediately howled and gave off a dense sword energy as it charged at the divine retribution.
When they slammed into each other, a shocking boom echoed out. The lightning collapsed, and the wooden sword retreated. The residual Origin Power in the area was now incredibly dense. Popping sounds could be heard as the rocks in the area shattered into pieces.
Zhan Konglie's body trembled and he continued to retreat. His face was pale as he gloomily stared at Shengong Hu. He was also angered, and the battle intent in his eyes was ignited.
Shengong Hu also retreated until he stepped into the thunder lake. A trace of blood came out from the corner of his mouth as he stared at Zhan Konglie and laughed. "I've long disliked a feminine fellow like you. I didn't expect you to actually have some skill in today's battle!"
Wang Lin's eyes lit up. He had seen the battle just now. The battle between Corporeal Yang cultivators gave him a bit of insight. He couldn't block any of their origin energy spells.
However, he saw some problems. Shengong Hu's origin energy spell didn't seem to be perfect. The power of the divine retribution lightning should have been stronger.
After all, Wang Lin had seen the third step. When he stepped into the inner part of the thunder lake, he vaguely saw the law of thunder. It wasn't strange for him to see the problem with Shengong Hu's thunder spell.
This kind of phenomenon would also occur in the martial arts world of the mortal world. It was like a person who did not know martial arts at all. Because he had read many secret manuals, he had a deep understanding of martial arts. Therefore, from the perspective of a bystander, he would often be able to point out the problem of his opponent's moves.
Even though he was able to see through it and provide pointers, he had yet to reach that level, so he was unable to use it himself.
At this moment, Wang Lin was in this state. His eyes lit up and he calmly said, "Shengong Hu, your origin force spell contains the might of thunder, but it doesn't have the soul of thunder. Although your dao heart has fused with it, it isn't enough. Your faith doesn't have the power of thunder!"
Shengong Hu was shocked. This wasn't the first time he had heard this. The head of the Thunder Celestial Temple had said this to his family elders as well. However, hearing it from Wang Lin made him even more nervous. He respectfully said, "Please teach me, my lord."
Not to mention him, even Zhan Konglie in the distance was startled. He was leaning more and more towards the absurd speculation in his heart. Shengong Hu's problem also existed on him.
The elders of the Zhan family only said that one had to comprehend it on their own. This kind of thing was really hard to explain. Even they were still trying to figure it out and didn't know if what they comprehended was right or wrong. How could they teach their juniors?
If it was right, it would be fine, but if it was wrong … After all, no one knew if their path was right or wrong from the true dao.
This was because they didn't know where the third step was.
However, Wang Lin was different. He had seen the third step, which meant he had seen the way forward.
Others didn't dare to say it because they didn't know if it was right or wrong. Even if they did say it, they weren't sure.
However, Wang Lin wasn't the same. He knew that what he said was right!
The scene at this moment was very strange. Shengong Hu and Zhan Konglie were still filled with battle intent, but the next moment, they both gave up fighting and looked at Wang Lin.
Their gazes were different. Shengong Hu's gaze was filled with blind respect, while Zhan Konglie's gaze was filled with doubt.
Wang Lin didn't continue to speak. This kind of thing couldn't be explained too clearly. If one understood, then they understood. If one didn't understand, then they would need a chance. Otherwise, they would never understand.
While pondering, Wang Lin raised his right hand and casually squeezed. A ray of thunder flew into his palm. The power of this thunder wasn't strong in the eyes of Shengong Hu and Zhan Konglie.
However, what happened next caused the two of them to gasp. Wang Lin's gaze fell on the thunder in his palm and his eyes revealed a strange light. He shook his right hand and the thunder immediately dissipated, leaving behind only a faintly discernible light!
This light couldn't last for too long. In just an instant, this light collapsed and dissipated. Wang Lin closed his eyes to hide the fatigue in them. If it wasn't for the fact that this was too dangerous, he wouldn't have pretended to be mysterious.
With his eyes closed, Wang Lin slowly said, "Do you understand?"
"Source … Return to the source …" Shengong Hu's eyes shined brightly and his body trembled with excitement. He didn't hesitate to bow at Wang Lin. The respect in his eyes became even stronger, almost reaching worship.
His mind suddenly became clear, as if a layer of paper had been pierced. At this moment, Shengong Hu felt like he had obtained dao!
He suddenly turned around and looked at Zhan Konglie. His eyes shined brightly and he slowly said, "You and I, let's fight again!"
At this moment, Zhan Konglie's scalp felt numb. His speculation about Wang Lin had reached its peak, and he no longer doubted the absurd idea in his mind. He took a few steps back and bowed at Wang Lin. He respectfully said, "Junior's name is Zhan Konglie. I didn't know Senior was comprehending here. I hope Senior can forgive me for my previous offense. Junior will leave now!"
He looked at Shengong Hu with envy. At this moment, he understood why Shengong Hu would rely on someone else with his arrogance.
Zhan Konglie's tone was a bit sour as he clasped his hands and said, "Congratulations, Brother Shengong!"
Shengong Hu didn't speak and coldly looked at Zhan Konglie.
Zhan Konglie didn't mind and smiled. "Brother Shengong, I have already received the summons from the Thunder Celestial Temple. In the future, you and I will both be messengers of the Thunder Celestial Temple. Goodbye!" He bowed at Wang Lin again before turning around and leaving.
Shengong Hu didn't stop him, but his eyes became cold.
Wang Lin calmly asked, "What is the summons?"
Shengong Hu quickly turned around and respectfully said, "The summons is a summons from the Thunder Celestial Temple. Any candidate that is chosen as a messenger of the Thunder Celestial Temple will receive a summons.
Three months before the Thunder Celestial Temple opens, the Thunder Celestial Temple will reorganize the messengers. If there is a shortage, there will be a competition among the candidates.
With Zhan Konglie's cultivation, if there are no accidents, he will definitely win! "
Wang Lin nodded slightly and didn't speak. He closed his eyes and continued to absorb the Thunder into his body and convert it into origin energy.
Shengong Hu's eyes were filled with excitement. He had just gained some enlightenment, so he immediately sat down inside the thunder lake and began to cultivate again.
Time slowly passed. In the blink of an eye, eight years went by.
Including the previous two years, 10 years of time had passed in a flash. The origin energy in Wang Lin's body gradually stabilized under the absorption of the thunder origin spell. His origin soul had reached saturation, but he couldn't absorb any more.
Wang Lin understood that this was because his cultivation level wasn't high enough. Only after reaching the second step could he continue to absorb origin energy. The most important thing right now was to break through his own cultivation level.
He stood up and looked at the surrounding thunder. After 10 years of contact, he had a better understanding of thunder. It was as if he could see through its origin, but it was a bit blurry.
Wang Lin's body moved. He left the inner ring of the thunder lake and walked toward the edge.
Shengong Hu was sent away by Wang Lin three years ago. Although this person respected Wang Lin a lot, Wang Lin always felt a bit uncomfortable. Before Shengong Hu left, he left behind a message jade.
The silver-horned Thunder Beast rushed over. Wang Lin sat on its back and left the thunder lake. The celestial guard turned into a shadow and merged with the shadow behind Wang Lin.
After 10 years of absorbing thunder, the Thunder Beast's speed had become even faster. It charged out of the asteroid field and disappeared into the depths of the stars.
Wang Lin already knew about the change in the heaven defying bead. Not only were the souls of Li Muwan, Wang Ping, and Wang Lin not affected, they became even more crystal clear.
"I must go to the Thunder Celestial Realm in 20 years, but right now I need to find a secret place to increase my cultivation.
In addition, the change in the heaven defying bead seems to indicate that it no longer needs the power of the five elements. So, what exactly do I need? "Wang Lin sat on the back of the Thunder Beast and began to ponder.
The heaven defying bead was divided into yin and yang and didn't fuse with each other. This puzzled Wang Lin.
"Sun and moon, yin and yang …" As Wang Lin pondered, the Thunder Beast flew through the stars. After an unknown amount of time, Wang Lin slapped his bag of holding and a jade appeared in his hand.
This was left behind by Shengong Hu. It was a star map of the entire Luo Tian Southern Domain. There were many places on it. With this, Wang Lin wouldn't get lost.
The place before him was known as the wild land of the Luo Tian Southern Domain. Most of the planets here were abandoned, and there was nothing special about them. Very few powerful cultivators would come here.
However, there were mortals living on these planets, and there were also some low rank cultivation families.
"I have 20 years of time to prepare for the trip to the Thunder Celestial Realm. Moreover, some of my spells need to be modified. A lot of my spells don't conform to what I see as the third step. If I continue to use them, I'll be walking the wrong path.
"In particular, the endless resentment needed for the underworld river will need to be collected as quickly as possible.
"Also, I should have a cultivation planet of my own in the Luo Tian Star System!"
As Wang Lin pondered, his eyes lit up. Before him, he saw an abandoned planet that was filled with vitality. It was obvious there were a lot of mortals living there. The reason he chose this place was because it was very similar to Suzaku!
He was a bit homesick … Wang Lin jumped into the air. The Thunder Beast let out a whimper as it helplessly turned into the God Slaying War Chariot and flew back into Wang Lin's bag of holding.
Just as he was about to charge toward the planet, Wang Lin's expression changed. The celestial sword inside his bag gave off a powerful fluctuation. This fluctuation contained a powerful aura and an ancient sword intent.
"Damn sword intent, your Grandpa Xu has finally conquered you. From now on, I'm a real sword spirit. I'm powerful!!
I'm really powerful! "
"Xu Liguo is a new student. Hehe, tomorrow will be very interesting.
I still have to say it again. Tomorrow, 3 am!
I'm asking for monthly votes. My goal is to get into the top 4! "
(It's a bit difficult, but I ask fellow cultivators to give me the monthly votes. Instead of resting, I've increased the number of updates.)
