Chapter 935: Clearing the Battleground with a Thunder Light
The terrifying thunder light that was brought about by manipulating the Primordial Magnet Power had to be carefully dealt with, even by cultivators of the Celestial Sect of Wonders.
Wang Lin did not render assistance to Shi Tianhao but instead, used his mana to shield Yang Qing, Luo Qingwu and company.
However, he too prepared to use his Real and Illusory World against the Yu’ao Dragon King.
For a White Dragon with the mastery of the Yu’ao Dragon King, their understanding of the change between illusion and reality was deep indeed. Hence, they had a certain level of resistance against Wang Lin’s Real and Illusory World.
Paradoxically, Wang Lin’s Real and Illusory World was extremely effective against the White Dragon Tribe. As the White Dragon was tired out by Shi Tianhao’s attack, Wang Lin’s sudden attack could break the equilibrium.
However, Shi Tianhao’s terrifying attack was more than sufficient to strike fear in the Yu’ao Dragon King’s heart.
While the powerful primordial magnet thunder light appeared slow, it was actually very fast. Compared to the speed of normal sword radiance or treasure light, it was much faster. Not even a powerful demon like the Yu’ao Dragon King would be able to react in time. Only by maximizing his own powers was the Yu’ao Dragon King able to avoid this attack.
While he left the Black Sea to study under the Golden Cicada and rarely returned home, he was still from the same tribe as the Immemorial Celestial Dragon. As a White Dragon, he was one of the tribe’s strongest member.
If one wished to find a White Dragon stronger than him, then the only possible option was his Big Senior.
However, the primordial magnet thunder light was too terrifying. Everywhere it touched, space collapsed into chaos and the real and illusory worlds were forced to swap.
Fortunately for the Yu’ao Dragon King, he was an Undying Demon Soul Third Level demon. Hence, his body continuously alternated between reality and illusion. In an instant, he transformed more than ten thousand times.
Just as he managed to enter the illusory world, he was dragged out of it by a mystical and terrible power. He returned to the real world where he had to face the terrifying power of the primordial magnet thunder light.
The Yu’ao Dragon King naturally did not want to be a sitting duck. He tried to enter the illusory world once again, but he was dragged out once more, struggling.
In that time, he alternated between the two worlds countless times. Every time he re-entered the real world, his body would be injured by the thunder light.
As his injuries continued to worsen, the Yu’ao Dragon King found it harder to use his powers.
He could clearly feel that Shi Tianhao’s powerful move was not only destructive, it was able also able to render his Unique Gift useless.
Just like Xiao Yan’s Heaven Fire Lotus, Shi Tianhao borrowed upon the powers of the surroundings which fulfilled every single criterion he needed to pull this powerful move. However, he would be unable to pull something like that off again for a long while.
The destructive power within it was even stronger than Wang Lin’s Supreme Destruction. At a huge price, Shi Tianhao got an insanely powerful attack.
The Yu’ao Dragon King’s heart was filled with despair. Despite his countless struggles, his Unique Gift was going to be destroyed. Then, his actual body would have to take a hit from the attack, which was something that not even a Bastille Black Dragon of the same stage could survive.
The Zu’e Grand Sage who had been swallowed by the Yu’ao Dragon King was shocked too. At first, he thought he was simply taking a temporary cover. Now, he realized that his escape path had been cut off. Shi Tianhao’s next move would obliterate both the Yu’ao Dragon King and him.
However, at that instant, because of the terrifying power of the thunder light and the Yu’ao Dragon King’s own Illusion and Reality Mystic Switching Spell, the space in the battleground suddenly began to twist.
The void, which was on the verge of destruction, suddenly started to shine with white light. it appeared to be a type of dimensional power.
The dimensional power appeared at the intersection between the Yu’ao Dragon King and the thunder light. The Yu’ao Dragon King was shocked but under the pressure from the thunder light he had no time to consider about anything else. Immediately, he allowed himself to be absorbed by the newly-formed inter-world passage.
As the thunder light swept past, the inter-world passage, which had been only a tiny dot, turned into a wide tear. It was as if an entrance had opened in the void.
Afterwards, the thunder light twisted and straightened. It shot straight up and pierced through the mine. It went all the way up into the Barren Expanses above the mine before slowly disappearing into the sky.
Wang Lin and Shi Tianhao did not pause to regret the loss of the thunder light. Their attention was focused on the huge dimensional tear in front of them as they felt its power.
The mine was wrecked and huge amount of powder-like dust floated in mid-air. While there was still a huge amount of Primordial Magnet Power in the vicinity, it was no longer able to blind them.
"So that’s what it is. This is an Outer Realm that is connected to the interior of the Steel Polarity Mine. Huge amount of spiritual energy from the mine is led into this Outer Realm. No wonder the mine is showing signs of decay."
Shi Tianhao said in shock, "The Outer Realm and the mine was in an equilibrium before this. However, after I destroyed the mine, the spiritual energy within it was thrown into chaos. I wonder what’s inside it and how would the change in the flow of spiritual energy affect it?"
Wang Lin said, "We should enter it first. Just now, the two demons had already entered it."
Shi Tianhao nodded his head and together with Wang Lin, descended into the Outer Realm.
As the two sides fought, the others above them suffered huge collateral damage. Regardless whether it was the Choucheng Tribe or the Great Zhou Empire, both incurred heavy losses.
Prince Yanliang, Liang Fu, who was in his Immortal Soul Second Level and the Cheng Yun Holy Man, Li Yao, who was in his Immortal Soul First Level, were still fine. After all, all they experience was some residual shockwave. The thunder light fortunately did not reach them.
However, both were still rendered disheveled. The Cheng Yun Holy Man looked downwards in horror, "That move just now, who did it?"
Liang Fu’s face was heavy as he said, "The Primordial Magnet Power is too strong and I cannot detect the source and type of the mana. However, I’m pretty sure none of the Choucheng here possesses such power."
"I wonder who was the powerful cultivator who fought with Shi Tianhao and Wang Lin. However, if their opponent is not a thunder type or Primordial Magnet type cultivator, then the only possibility is Shi Tianhao of the Celestial Sect of Wonders!"
Hearing that, the Cheng Yun Holy Man fell silent. He did not say much but in his heart, he was extremely grateful to Liang Fu for stopping him from tailing Shi Tianhao and company. He also thanked his lucky stars that he did not rush down after them by himself.
"The Choucheng in the mine are beaten senseless and their spell formation is broken too. They can no longer stop us from harvesting Polarity Steel." After a period of silence, the Cheng Yun Holy Man spoke, "However, we should not venture any deeper but instead, start mining here. We take what we can and get out as soon as possible, for fear of more unpredictable developments."
Liang Fu nodded his head solemnly. Originally, the Cheng Yun Holy Man and he were responsible for dealing with the Choucheng and other intruders. They would not take part in the mining personally.
However, the intruders were too powerful and completely out of their league. To save time, the two Immortal Soul stage elders could only join in the mining. After all, their efficiency was way higher than those underneath them.
Looking at the wrecked mien before them, Liang Fu and the Cheng Yun Holy Man exchanged a look and sighed.
Shi Tianhao was very pleased with the power of his attack. However, his initial intention was to just force both the Yu’ao Dragon King and the Zu’e Grand Sage to talk; he did not expect to clear them out.
Hence, while he was pleased with its powers, he was slightly miffed. After all, he did not accomplish his objective.
Once he entered the Outer Realm, Shi Tianhao’s eyes swept his surroundings. Unfortunately, the inter-world passage was rather chaotic right now and hence, he could not trace the location of the Yu’ao Dragon King and the Zu’e Grand Sage.
"Tsk, disappointing," Shi Tianhao shook his head. However, he quickly forgot about it as he looked in interest at the Outer Realm he was in.
It was an Outer Realm with a very wide expanse of space. However, it appeared desolate and empty. As he looked, he realized that it was barren and filled with sand dunes without any trace of life.
A cold wind blew non-stop, kicking up sandstorms occasionally on the plain and clouding both the sky and the earth. However, in the eyes of Wang Lin and Shi Tianhao, this environment was much more comfortable than the Steel Polarity Mine.
When they entered here, while it was still covered with Primordial Magnet Power, it was no long as chaotic as it had been in the mine. Conversely, the Primordial Magnet Power appeared to be a stabilizing element here as it was very orderly.
The Primordial Magnet Power congregated together like lines after lines of rope, which then stretched far into the Outer Realm.
In this environment, Wang Lin, Shi Tianhao and company could use their supernatural awareness to sense what was ahead. While a small amount of Primordial Magnet Power still interfered with them, it was minimal.
The two brothers exchanged a look. "The Primordial Magnet Power appears to be heading in one direction."
Wang Lin said quietly, "I think we have reached our destination."
The two powerful, brave young men followed the Primordial Magnet Power as they walked in the Outer Realm.
Of course, they were still on high alert. Not only were there dangers they did not know about, the Yu’ao Dragon King and the Zu’e Grand Sage, both of whom were Immortal Soul Third Level demons, were here.
Just now, they had ambushed them. Now, if they were to be ambushed, it would a joke.
At the same time, Chu Yang, Yang Qing, Li Yuanfang, Luo Qingwu, Tun Tun and company were enveloped by Wang Lin’s mana. With the power of his mana, they followed their progress.
After all, faced with the Yu’ao Dragon King and the Zu’e Grand Sage, Yang Qing and the rest were still far too weak. If they were ambushed, they had no chance of survival, much less the more junior disciples.
However, everything that Wang Lin and Shi Tianhao saw and heard were being projected to Chu Yang, Yang Qing, Luo Qingwu and the rest.
"Eh?" As he walked, Wang Lin frowned. He landed on the sandy, desolate surface.
Shi Tianhao went up to him as realized that Wang Lin’s gaze was on a patch of sand. Unlike the surrounding yellow sand, the sand here was all black.
Through sensing the black sand, Shi Tianhao felt some remnant mana in it. The remnant mana felt familiar but he could not ascertain its origins.
Shi Tianhao turned to looked at Wang Lin and asked, "Third Senior?"
