"Um?" When the Thunder God looked up again, thousands of little boys suddenly appeared before him, all identical in appearance and demeanor, making it impossible to distinguish between them.
"In front of me, the Illusion Demon Ancestor, even the Thunder God is not spared!" a boy's voice rang out.
"So it's all an illusion!" Zhao Yang quietly activated the Enlightenment Realm, his mind reading expanding as he analyzed the lifelike illusionary clones before him.
"Kid, I can spare your life. This Thunder God is quite troublesome. I saved him once, but he turned out to be so ungrateful. If you can help me injure him again, I will spare your life in return for handing over the Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King. You seem to be quite talented; I will definitely take you as my disciple and teach you the path of illusion and the method of longevity!" Illusion Demon Ancestor transmitted his thoughts.
"Alright!" Zhao Yang replied, already launching his Inch of Light. Through his analysis, he had pinpointed the location of Illusion Demon Ancestor.
Zhao Yang knelt on the ground and quietly sent his Inch of Light underground, traveling a hundred meters below. No matter how clever Illusion Demon Ancestor was, he would never expect someone to attack from underground. Moreover, Zhao Yang's Inch of Light was a Supreme Dao Artifact that had been nurtured by Heavenly Crystal for a long time, making it nearly surpass a Supreme Dao Artifact in power. Its speed was faster than the wind, with no obstacles in its path!
Puff!
The powerful and razor-sharp Inch of Light shot up from a hundred meters underground, piercing through Illusion Demon Ancestor's lower body and emerging from the top of his head. Illusion Demon Ancestor let out a terrible scream as True Qi leaked out, his life essence scattering in an instant. Hearing this scream, the Thunder God pointed his staff toward the source of the sound, unleashing a burst of lightning that caused the ground to sink.
Taking advantage of his momentum, the Thunder God soared toward Illusion Demon Ancestor, lightning patterns swirling between his palms, illuminating all around.
Illusion Demon Ancestor, despite appearing as a child, suddenly transformed into an enormous Titan, letting out a thunderous roar as he swung a fist at the Thunder God. Both engaged their Divine Power at the Tribulation Period level, turning the surrounding area into a scene of devastation with heaven and earth collapsing.
A cold light streaked through the air and flew into Zhao Yang's hand. Gritting his teeth, Zhao Yang turned to flee.
"Kid, you almost split my Primordial Spirit in half and scattered most of my True Qi! I won't let you go! Just wait until I kill this arrogant fool who calls himself a god; I will definitely come for you!"
"Let's see if you can survive first! Attacking me from behind leads to this outcome!" Zhao Yang activated Time Walk and directly teleported to King Yu's Mansion.
Zhao Tianlang and King Yu rushed out upon hearing the commotion and saw Zhao Yang's face pale and drenched in blood.
"Zhao Yang, what happened to you?!" "Brother Zhao Yang," He Qing and Liu Rou rushed toward him.
Zhao Tianlang was also shocked and exclaimed, "Zhao Yang, who could have harmed your physical body?" He knew Zhao Yang's body was tougher than diamond; even Dao Artifacts struggled to break through his flesh. The Sword Saint had only left marks on his skin during their previous encounters.
Surrounded by Chaotic Qi, Zhao Yang spoke up: "It was someone awakened by the Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King—someone from ten thousand years ago. It seems that those who failed to Transcend Tribulation for thousands of years are coming back to life. I never expected there would be so many. The one who injured me is a boy who calls himself Illusion Demon Ancestor; his True Qi is extremely unique. When my flesh came into contact with him, I sensed countless Transcendence Stage Experts from Five Elements Continent—they all sensed me."
"What do we do now?" He Qing gasped in shock; she had just learned about Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King from the Grand Elder today. "We must either hand over Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King or destroy it!" He Qing said resolutely. Although Ginseng King looked as adorable as a baby, it paled in comparison to her son's life.
The Ginseng Doll crawled out from Zhao Yang's embrace with tear-filled eyes and said pitifully: "Master, please eat me! I don't want to become someone else's meal. If you eat me, not only will you live for ten thousand years, but these old fellows won't be able to find you. If they don't replenish their life essence within ten years, they will surely turn to dust; all you need to do is hide for ten years."
Zhao Yang opened his eyes and touched the Ginseng Doll, saying, "Ten years, another ten years. Even if I escape for ten years, the Gathering Spirit Killing Formation of the Zhao Clan Imperial Family has already formed. When that time comes, the Heavenly Realm will collapse, and everything in the Cultivation Realm will perish. I won't survive either."
Then, Zhao Yang informed Ji Wudao and the others of the secrets he had discovered within the Zhao Clan Imperial Family. Ji Wudao was now a powerful expert in the early stages of the Tribulation Period, a significant combat force against the current crisis. Letting them know was a way to share his worries.
After completing his cultivation, Chaos True Qi visibly healed Zhao Yang's injuries at a remarkable speed, leaving everyone astonished.
"Father, Brother Ji, please use your True Qi from the Tribulation Period to temporarily seal the Ginseng King. We need to leave quickly; my Divine Sense detects countless experts rushing here."
Zhao Tianlang and Ji Wudao nodded in response. They used their True Qi to seal the Ginseng King within a Cosmic Bag that Zhao Yang wore. In his Divine Sense, Zhao Yang felt that those experts from the Tribulation Period had noticeably paused, seemingly surprised by the sudden disappearance of the Ginseng King.
Soon after, King Yu and his group left King Yu's Mansion, all heading towards Xuanfo Temple.
Not long after they departed, a white rainbow streaked across the sky as Thunder God appeared above King Yu's Mansion. The sound of breaking air echoed continuously as over a dozen men and women of various shapes and attire—Transcendence Stage Experts—arrived. Among them were Taoists and Daoist Nuns, their clothing somewhat antiquated, exuding a faintly retro vibe. They exchanged silent glances but understood each other well; they were all here for the Ginseng King. However, there was only one Ginseng King, and their common goal was to find whoever carried it. Thus, they were both allies and enemies!
Before long, a Taoist brought forward a man who was the steward of King Yu's Mansion. When King Yu left, he had dispatched everyone to disperse, but this steward was greedy and wanted to take away treasures from King Yu's Mansion. He returned to gather valuables when he was captured by this Taoist.
"You say this is King Yu's Mansion?" the Taoist questioned.
"King Yu? I don't seem to have heard of such a person," said a general-like figure with a prominent appearance holding a Red Battle Blade. He was a Royal War General from the Demon Moon Era.
A middle-aged scholar-like man replied, "Senior, I have indeed heard of this King Yu. He was an unparalleled expert who rose to fame six thousand years ago, known as invincible among his peers. This King Yu must be a descendant of that era's King Yu. The First Generation Yuwang possessed the Supreme Dao Artifact Seven Stringed Zither, rumored to be an item from the Heavenly Realm capable of slaying older generation experts across levels. Later on, Seven Stringed Zither was renamed King Yu's Zither and became a Dao Artifact exclusive to the King Yu clan. If someone reaches the Great Completion stage in cultivation, they could pose a threat to experts in the Tribulation Period. Back then, in 4009 of Central Sovereign's reign, First Generation Yuwang killed thousands of demon race experts at the same level with King Yu's Zither. All who opposed him trembled in fear; Central Sovereign intended to invite him as the head of the Twelve Divine Generals but was refused. Later on, Central Sovereign conferred upon him Yuwang City, after which he vanished without a trace."
"Hmph! Slaying older generation experts across levels is just talk! Are those old-timers at Tribulation Period made of tofu? Just because someone claims they can slay higher-level opponents doesn't mean it's true! In our time, weren't we all said to be capable of challenging those above us? But when it came to Tribulation Period battles among peers, we couldn't even kill each other! What nonsense!" an older man with a rugged appearance retorted. He had half-bald hair and a nose like a drunkard's; his voice sounded like that of a quacking duck.
Thunder Sound lazily glanced at him and said, "That's because you're too weak."
The Rugged Elder glared angrily at Thunder God and said, "Who are you calling weak? You little brat with your wolfish demeanor better watch out; I might just take your life!"
"Heh heh heh." Thunder Sound chuckled dismissively as he raised his hand casually; lightning flickered at his fingertips with crackling sounds.
"Senior, please calm down," said the middle-aged scholar hastily upon seeing Thunder God about to act. He spoke amiably: "Let this person clarify the relationship between King Yu and whoever carries the Ginseng King before we take action."
The Rugged Elder snorted disdainfully: "I'll deal with you later." He shot Thunder God another glare.
The steward of King Yu's Mansion said, "I don't know much; I only heard that it seems like he's King Yu's son-in-law named Zhao Yang or something like that. Additionally, they have a Sword Saint from Myriad Spirit Sect who has also been mentioned."
After finishing his words, the Middle-Aged Scholar stepped forward and said, "Thank you for your help."
The butler said, "You're welcome. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
The Middle-Aged Scholar smiled and placed his hand on the butler's head. In just a breath's time, the butler was left with nothing but human skin; even his bones had been drained clean by the Middle-Aged Scholar. A few Tribulation Period cultivators couldn't help but frown, and a Female Taoist quietly wondered, "Devouring Heaven Demon Technique?"
The Middle-Aged Scholar glanced at the Female Taoist, then nodded to everyone before departing.
At that moment, the Thunder God made a strange gesture. The staff in his hand floated behind him like an ancient Zen Staff from some kind of sacrificial ritual, illuminating the vast sky. The Thunder God chanted ancient Sanskrit, enveloped in lightning. One dazzling rune after another lit up around him, and strange symbols appeared on his chest and forehead as he raised his hands to the heavens.
"Transform my wrath into thunder and punish the fallen mortals," Thunder Sound whispered as he slowly ascended into the air, electric sparks flickering in his hands.
Boom!
A thunderclap powerful enough to kill all cultivators below the Tribulation Period echoed through Yuwang City. Dozens, even hundreds of Transcending Tribulation Stage Cultivators bled from their ears, their skin cracked! The massive lightning struck down with a diameter exceeding twenty miles, leveling Yuwang City to the ground. In an instant, all the citizens turned to charred ash, no longer existing.
The Rugged Elder, who had previously clashed with the Thunder God, was lifted into the air by him. He lazily glanced at the remaining surviving Tribulation Period experts before leaving with a half-smile.
Those who failed their Transcend Tribulation feared nothing more than the thunder tribulation.
