Chapter 1292: Peak of the Cloud Sea — This is the True Life

Time slowly flowed by on this Flashing Thunder Clan Cultivation Planet, and in the blink of an eye, Wang Lin had already stayed with the Flashing Thunder Clan for a month.

During this month, he did not return to his previous Immortal Cave, but instead chose the mountain gate of the Heavenly Thunder Sect, where he meditated with his eyes closed, sitting cross-legged and breathing. Over the past month, Xu Ligou and Zhong Dahong used the Heavenly Thunder Sect as their center, sweeping outwards in all directions, plundering large amounts of items to exchange for Thunder Crystals.

By now, relying on these items, Wang Lin could exchange for nearly one hundred thousand Thunder Crystals.

Xu Ligou rarely emerged from the Storage Rift. In his excitement, he launched a frantic operation outside the Heavenly Thunder Sect. He disliked acting alone, so he brought more than ten Foundation Establishment Disciples of the Heavenly Thunder Sect. Wherever they went, they were like a swarm of locusts. Furthermore, using his unique methods, he immediately recruited any Core Formation Cultivator they encountered.

In just one month, the number of Flashing Thunder Clan members following him had reached nearly a hundred. Xu Ligou, having learned it from somewhere unknown, had these Flashing Thunder Clan members construct a massive throne out of bamboo and wood. This throne was about a hundred zhang in size and shone brightly. Xu Ligou leaned upon it, accompanied by four female Flashing Thunder Clan Cultivators, acting extremely brazenly the entire way!

Dozens of Cultivators carried this hundred zhang throne, moving forward. Dozens of Cultivators also cleared the path ahead, and the same arrangement was maintained to the rear and sides.

Moreover, as they traveled, Xu Ligou specifically selected two Core Formation Cultivators with exceptionally loud voices to continuously shout.

"Grandpa Xu is traveling! His Aura is like a rainbow! He swallows mountains and rivers! He is peerless in the world! Handsome and unrestrained! Unrivaled!"

The sound boomed like thunder, echoing continuously. Xu Ligou laughed heartily upon hearing it, feeling immensely pleased. Leaning against one female Cultivator, he ate Flashing Thunder Clan fruits offered by another, drank fine wine, while two other female Cultivators massaged his body, which was vaguely solidifying.

This kind of enjoyment made Xu Ligou's entire body excited.

Furthermore, on this throne, besides the four female Cultivators, there were also four very handsome men. These four men knelt there, also serving Xu Ligou.

"This is the true life! This is the life that I, Xu Ligou, should be enjoying! That Evil Star has been running around for the last two thousand years; how could he be as happy as Grandpa Xu? Haha! I, Xu Ligou, am still the smart one. When one is successful in life, one must enjoy it to the fullest!" Xu Ligou listened to the shouts echoing in his ears and the flattering voices. Furthermore, being served by the female and male Cultivators beside him, he felt his body go numb. He narrowed his eyes and slowly began to sigh with emotion.

"How long has it been since I was this happy… Damn it, if that Evil Star hadn't captured me, I would definitely be even happier now… Uh, but maybe I would have died from my Lifespan running out… Forget it, why think so much? Right now, I need to make up for all the life I lost over the past two thousand years. These female Cultivators are too few. If I could have a hundred… a thousand, that would be perfect. Yes, plus a thousand handsome male Cultivators, and then ten thousand attendants carrying the throne, all shouting for me—that would be even more perfect!

For this goal, it looks like Grandpa Xu needs to work hard!" Xu Ligou was full of vigor. Just then, a long arc of light flew in from the front, containing a Core Formation Cultivator.

When this person approached within ten zhang of the throne, he cupped his fists and loudly declared, "Great Immortal above! His Aura is like a rainbow! He swallows mountains and rivers! Handsome and unrestrained! Unrivaled!" After speaking, the man paused to catch his breath, then quickly continued, "A hundred li ahead is the Immortal Cave of that Late Stage Nascent Soul Old Monster, Chen Tongfeng. He has already noticed us, and all the Restrictions outside his Immortal Cave are activated."

Xu Ligou pinched the cheek of a female Cultivator beside him, waved his hand proudly, and said, "Keep moving forward! Let me show you how your Grandpa Xu takes care of a mere Nascent Soul Cultivator!"

The distance of a hundred li was quickly traversed. The enormous throne cast a massive shadow under the sunlight, enveloping a peak below, like a dark cloud pressing down.

Midway up the mountain peak, there was an Immortal Cave, sealed by extremely dense and strict Restrictions! Furthermore, eight small flags hung outside the peak, spinning rapidly and transforming into plumes of black mist.

After the throne approached, Xu Ligou looked self-satisfied. He slowly raised his right hand, and only after drawing the attention of all the Cultivators following him did he wave it forward!

With that wave, the heavens and earth roared. Endless Sword Shadows materialized out of thin air within the world. As soon as these Sword Shadows appeared, they emitted earth-shattering sword cries. Moreover, the endless Sword Qi caused the winds and clouds to reverse, and even the sky instantly darkened.

As a Sword Spirit, Xu Ligou had obtained an Ancient Sword Intent Legacy. Although he was lazy by nature, he was sealed by Wang Lin while at the Four Saints Sect and forced to Cultivate diligently. The Divine Abilities he could display now—let alone against a mere Nascent Soul Junior—even Soul Transformation, even Yin and Yang Void Realm, and even Nirvana Scrutiny Cultivators, were no match for Xu Ligou!

With one wave, as the heavens and earth trembled, the sky instantly filled with boundless Sword Qi. The density of this Sword Qi caused all the Cultivators around Xu Ligou to tremble, as if they were standing amidst the Profound Ice of the Nine Heavens!

The endless Sword Qi roared forth, striking directly at the mountain peak. The black mist swirling around it instantly collapsed, and just as the eight small flags were about to burst, Xu Ligou grabbed them directly with a grasp across the Void Realm.

"That Evil Star said that not a single Magic Treasure should be damaged! These are all items for exchanging Thunder Crystals!"

The Sword Qi broke through the black mist and struck the mountain peak. Furthermore, due to Xu Ligou's deliberate showmanship, the Sword Qi swept across, and booming sounds echoed as the mountain peak was pierced by the Sword Qi, collapsing layer by layer. In just an instant, the entire peak dissipated, leaving only an empty Immortal Cave without walls!

It was as if a Mortal's house had its roof sliced off. Inside the Immortal Cave sat a middle-aged man with a vacant expression, clearly terrified and stunned by everything that had just happened.

"Grandpa Xu is traveling! His Aura is like a rainbow! He swallows mountains and rivers! He is peerless in the world! Handsome and unrestrained! Unrivaled!" The massive shout erupted from the many Cultivators beside Xu Ligou, truly possessing an imposing momentum that swallowed mountains and rivers! It startled the terrified middle-aged man awake!

"Those who obey Grandpa Xu shall offer up all items used to exchange for Thunder Crystals! Those who defy Grandpa Xu shall have their cultivation crippled and be imprisoned for life!" The two Core Formation Cultivators with exceptionally loud voices immediately stepped forward and roared.

The middle-aged man, who had Nascent Soul cultivation, stared blankly at the enormous throne above. Perhaps due to its immense size, the throne exerted powerful pressure on him. Swallowing hard, the middle-aged man respectfully cupped his fists without hesitation and quickly said, "This Junior is willing to offer everything."

Xu Ligou laughed loudly, looked down at the middle-aged Cultivator, his gaze sweeping back and forth over the man, and cackled, "Good. From now on, you'll follow your Grandpa Xu. Let me ask you, where are there female Cultivators around here?"

Under Xu Ligou's gaze, the middle-aged man's scalp tingled, and he faintly felt an ominous premonition, though he couldn't pinpoint why. Upon hearing the question, he quickly replied, "If you're asking about female Cultivators, hundreds of thousands of li away from here, there is a Sect called the Thunder Immortal Dao. Everyone inside is a female Cultivator, and it is said that their Sect Master is breathtakingly beautiful! However, her cultivation is quite high… and she is rumored to have ties with a member of our Inner Clan…"

As soon Ligou heard the four words "breathtakingly beautiful," his eyes lit up. How could he still worry about cultivation level? He waved his large hand and roared, "Lead the way! Follow Grandpa Xu to seize people! Seize treasures!"

The entire group moved grandly, slowly flying toward the distance. The enormous throne was dazzling under the sunlight. Xu Ligou's smug laughter faintly drifted over, accompanied by the earth-shaking shouts of nearly a hundred people, gradually fading away.

Leaving Xu Ligou aside for the moment, Zhong Dahong was also launching a frantic plunder operation. Zhong Dahong's cultivation was only at the Soul Transformation Stage. To ensure he completed his task, Wang Lin gave him a Flying Sword.

This sword was ordinary, but for a Cultivator in the First Step of Cultivation, it was like a supreme treasure. In Zhong Dahong's hands, it allowed him to fight a Middle Stage Soul Transformation Cultivator, and even if he encountered a Late Stage Soul Transformation Cultivator, he could resist for a brief period.

However, compared to Xu Ligou's arrogance, Zhong Dahong was much more cautious. Although he also brought along some Cultivators, he was far less joyous than Xu Ligou. Nevertheless, Zhong Dahong had the advantage of being familiar with the Flashing Thunder Clan, knowing which items yielded more Thunder Crystals, and knowing the locations of many Immortal Caves. Moreover, after being bestowed Medicinal Pills and Magic Treasures by Wang Lin, his spirits were lifted. He vaguely realized that the good fortune of his life had arrived. As long as he served Wang Lin well and satisfied him, he might even be given more Medicinal Pills.

Thinking of this, Zhong Dahong was highly motivated and extremely excited. Yet, deep down, he secretly guarded against Xu Ligou, considering Xu Ligou to be the lifelong rival he had encountered!

"Damn it, if Senior only had me, Zhong Dahong, by his side, that would be a heaven-sent fortune for me! But I never expected there to be this Xu Ligou. This person is utterly shameless, Cultivating this Undefeatable Art! His cultivation is higher than mine, probably because he's been following Senior for a long time and gained it by performing the Undefeatable Art!

But I, Zhong Dahong, will absolutely not surrender! While my cultivation is lacking, I have secretly studied this Undefeatable Art for several hundred years and haven't fully utilized it before. Now that Xu Ligou, my great rival, is right here, I must bring out twelve parts of my skill and fight him! Who wins and who loses is still unknown!"

Zhong Dahong sneered, and as he led several people forward, he consecutively destroyed several Immortal Caves and began plundering. Secretly, he continuously rehearsed various phrases in his mind for when he met Wang Lin, preparing to deploy the Undefeatable Art at any moment.

"I, Zhong Dahong, have a high talent for this Undefeatable Art. I refuse to believe I can't beat you, Xu Ligou!"

While Xu Ligou and Zhong Dahong were plundering, Wang Lin sat calmly cross-legged inside the Heavenly Thunder Sect. Before him was a Jade Slip, which contained a set of Cultivation Techniques practiced by the members of the Flashing Thunder Clan.

This technique was called the Thunder Gathering Seal. It could compress the Thunder Power within the body several times over in an instant, in exchange for powerful explosive force! However, this Cultivation Technique required cooperation with the Clan Seal, and long-term cultivation could slowly activate the Clan Seal.

Wang Lin's purpose in studying this Cultivation Technique was to clearly understand the Clan Seal of the Flashing Thunder Clan. He vaguely felt that this was extremely important for him to absorb the Indestructible Thunder.

There are too few Recommendation Votes. These don't cost money, Fellow Daoists, please send them as good fortune. If you can also cast a few monthly votes, that would be comparable to the good fortune Wang Lin gave Xu Ligou!!!!
