Chapter 1312: Peak of the Cloud Sea, Battle of the Flashing Thunder! (7)

The souls of the eight Primordial Thunder Dragons were torn into several pieces and were rapidly dissipating, but upon being devoured by Wang Lin, thirty percent of them trembled and were simultaneously sucked into Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit.

The moment these fragmented Primordial Thunder Dragon souls entered Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit, the thunder within his Primordial Spirit immediately began to flash and erupt wildly. The electrical light roared and surged, transforming into silver serpentine bolts ten zhang thick and a thousand zhang long, cracking loudly as if whipping the heavens, earth, and Star Domain!

An indescribable might of thunder violently spread from Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit, shaking the heavens and earth!

At this moment, all lightning, all thunder, and everything related to thunder in the Star Domain rapidly materialized within Wang Lin's mind. He seemed to faintly grasp something, yet it remained somewhat blurred.

The Origin of Thunder hidden within his Primordial Spirit was now expanding maniacally, like a heart beating, making thumping sounds. With every beat, the Origin of Thunder would surge, giving birth to even more Origin Power!

Even more astonishing was Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit. His Primordial Spirit had initially devoured half a Primordial Thunder Dragon in the Demon Spirit Land and taken on the appearance of a Dragon. Through a series of subsequent years of good fortune, it gradually transformed, forming an Origin, causing his Primordial Spirit to almost turn into a bolt of thunder!

However, this was only almost—his Primordial Spirit had not yet truly become the thunder of heaven and earth!

But now, his Primordial Spirit was undergoing a violent transformation, as if flipping the universe upside down! It was continuously evolving toward becoming a true Thunder Primordial Spirit! The devoured Primordial Thunder Dragon souls were causing Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit to gradually transition toward Perfection!

Before this, although his Primordial Spirit was equivalent to the Flashing Thunder Clan's Undying Thunder, even equivalence only referred to the tier; there was still a distinction between strong and weak within it. But now, all of that was rapidly changing!

The profound understanding of thunder was verified a thousandfold within Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit. A heaven-shaking roar emanated from his Primordial Spirit as it once again transformed into a Soul Devourer, opening its massive mouth and fiercely inhaling!

The heavens and earth changed color, the Star Domain shook, and countless Rifts were torn open. All the remaining Primordial Thunder Dragon souls trembled and violently surged into Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit!

In that instant, Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit squirmed frantically, rapidly changing from a misty state and suddenly contracting. A terrifying aura of the Half-Origin of Thunder vented forth from the contraction of his Primordial Spirit.

As this aura spread, the Thunder Territory surrounding the Flashing Thunder Clan outside the Star Domain immediately retreated en masse. Lightning trembled, and thunder submitted! Moreover, as this aura spread, the Undying Thunder connecting the heavens and earth above the temple in the Flashing Thunder Clan Holy Land let out its first heaven-shattering roar since the battle began!

This roar seemed to come from the Primordial Era, carrying an indescribable, heaven-shaking pressure. Its sound was like a massive Thunder Cultivator, sensing danger to itself and issuing a challenging roar!

As Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit contracted and the Origin of Thunder aura diffused, dazzling electrical light instantly spread from within. Under continuous compression, the mist had vanished, and what remained in the Star Domain was a massive Lightning Totem!

The moment this Lightning Totem appeared, a powerful pressure, surprisingly no weaker than the Undying Thunder, violently spread out. The heavens and earth trembled, large sections of the Star Domain collapsed, and thunder shook the world!

Outside the Lightning Totem, the Thunder of Spiritual Thought rapidly spun, forming this Thunder Diagram!

All of this sounds slow, but it actually happened in a matter of breaths. The Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder was dumbfounded. This sudden change was incomprehensible to him; in his mind, there was no precedent for being able to devour the souls of Primordial Thunder Dragons!

However, an extremely intense sense of crisis rapidly surged in his mind. He vaguely felt things were going badly, and the roar from the Undying Thunder in the Holy Land seemed to be whipping and urging the Grand Elder onward!

"I absolutely cannot let him continue! I must stop him, or disaster will befall my Flashing Thunder Clan!" The Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder's expression instantly turned ferocious. He snapped back to reality, and with a low roar, his body flashed forward, quickly closing the distance.

But the instant he approached, the Thunder Diagram formed by Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit immediately retreated, stamping directly onto Wang Lin's glabella and merging into his body. The moment the Primordial Spirit returned to its place, a booming sound emanated from Wang Lin's entire body. Every strand of muscle, every inch of bone, and even his internal organs and everything else, were instantly saturated with the Power of Thunder!

His entire being seemed to have become an Incarnation of thunder!

A flash of thunder light in his right eye revealed the manifestation of the Origin Mark, which was more than ten times stronger than before. Just before the Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder arrived, Wang Lin raised his right hand and waved it forward.

Heaven-shaking booms echoed endlessly in all directions. Layer upon layer of dense nets formed by thunder instantly appeared outside Wang Lin's body. These Thunder Nets contained Wang Lin's will and were unbreakable. Even if facing another Thunder Cultivator, unless they could contend with Wang Lin in terms of the Half-Origin of Thunder, there was absolutely no possibility of breaking through!

As he waved, the dense Thunder Nets grew more numerous and thicker. In the blink of an eye, there were ten layers, a hundred layers, a thousand layers, ten thousand layers… seventy thousand layers!

The Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder arrived with a roar, his hands held forward, his fifth heavenly decay cultivation suffusing them. He fiercely tore forward, and a booming echoed as he managed to rip open tens of thousands of layers of the dense Thunder Net. However, the moment he tore them open, these layers of thunder instantly restored themselves!

"Right now, I need to leave and find a safe place for seclusion to digest this. I cannot continue fighting this person!" Wang Lin rapidly retreated. Flipping his left hand, the Spirit Talisman leading to the Seven Million Worlds immediately appeared in his grasp!

Seeing Wang Lin retreat, the Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder seemed to go mad, the crisis in his heart growing ever stronger!

"I absolutely cannot let this person escape!!" With a low roar, the Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder spat out a mouthful of blood, which turned into a bloody thunder light. The Clan Seal on his glabella flashed intensely, and all the thunder in his body condensed within the blood, forming Blood Thunder which violently struck the Thunder Net before him.

Earth-shattering booms erupted, forming roaring sound waves. Sixty thousand of the seventy thousand layers of thunder instantly collapsed, but just as the Grand Elder stepped forward, intending to tear them open, the sixty thousand collapsed layers actually recovered once more!

The Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder's entire cultivation was focused on thunder. When fighting Wang Lin, he initially held the Peak advantage, but now that Wang Lin's Origin of Thunder had surged, he had an implicit means of resistance. If it were any other Cultivator at the fifth heavenly decay, killing Wang Lin would be much simpler and not nearly this troublesome. But this Grand Elder could not do so; both he and Wang Lin were Thunder Cultivators, and the battle hinged on the control of thunder!

Seeing Wang Lin's retreat accelerating, especially the Spirit Talisman in his hand which vaguely made the Grand Elder feel uneasy, he had no time for further thought and a resolute look appeared in his eyes!

As a Cultivator at the fifth heavenly decay, he definitely possessed more than the methods he had used so far. The fifth heavenly decay represents the strongest beneath the Third Step. cultivation reaching this level far surpasses all Cultivators at the fourth heavenly decay.

But the prerequisite was to unleash the unique Divine Ability that only Cultivators at the fifth heavenly decay could utilize!

Life Divine Ability!

Sacrificing one's Lifespan and dissipating one's vitality to forcefully activate a Divine Ability technique can summon a great spell containing a trace of the Third Step's aura. This is the reason why the fifth heavenly decay is considered the strongest beneath the Third Step!

Since the battle began, the Grand Elder had never used this kind of Divine Ability. His Lifespan and vitality were already scarce, and he constantly had to Seal his cultivation to slow the dissipation of his Lifespan and vitality, allowing him to struggle on and await the Opportunity of the Third Step!

But at this moment, he couldn't afford to worry about anything else. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes, he performed Hand Seals with his right hand, pointed toward the sky, and shouted lowly.

"Sacrifice to the Ancestors and Connect to the Heavens! The Undying Sacred Thunder that descended upon our clan eons ago, in my capacity as your servant, I sacrifice five hundred years of my Lifespan and vitality to you, in exchange for a Sacred Body! I beseech the Sacred Thunder to descend upon me and transform into… Chaos Undying Thunder!" The Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder's voice contained a strange intonation. The instant the words left his mouth, the Clan Seal on his glabella immediately flashed with dazzling light.

Faintly, a massive Compass appeared between heaven and earth. The Compass was boundless in size, visible upon looking up, and could even be clearly seen from outside the Flashing Thunder Clan Star Domain!

This Compass was permeated with the vicissitudes of eons, and it was also fragmented, seemingly on the verge of collapse after experiencing some great battle. But with its appearance, an indescribable pressure grandly descended!

The intensity of this pressure instantly caused the seventy thousand layers of thunder outside Wang Lin's body to emit sounds of distress. It also caused Wang Lin's expression to change. He stared intently at the Compass, his eyes showing solemnity.

The movement of his right hand, which was clutching the Spirit Talisman, also slowed.

He wanted to see what exactly this strange Compass was, and how powerful the Divine Ability of a Cultivator at the fifth heavenly decay truly was!

After the Compass appeared, it silently and slowly rotated clockwise for a small fraction of a turn. As it turned, it was as if time flowed by, and the operation of heaven and earth instantly traversed countless epochs!

The Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder's face instantly turned pale, as if a part of his soul had been severed. A layer of Death Qi spread across his face, though the Death Qi dissipated in an instant.

Along with the dissipation of the Death Qi, the massive Compass also vanished. It seemed the Compass had absorbed enough Lifespan and vitality, gradually disappearing into the Star Domain. The moment it vanished, the Undying Thunder in the Flashing Thunder Clan Holy Land roared, and a bolt seemed to split off from it, tearing through the heavens and earth and heading straight toward the battlefield.

In an instant, the divided portion of the Undying Heavenly Thunder arrived with a boom. As the Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder roared and pointed with his right hand, this Undying Thunder descended thunderously, like a Heavenly Tribulation, striking the seventy thousand layers of thunder outside Wang Lin's body.

Booms and cracks shook the heavens and earth. All seventy thousand layers of thunder instantly collapsed. Even upon recovery, they immediately disintegrated again. A terrifying thunderous might instantly spread. Wang Lin's pupils contracted, but he did not hesitate. The moment the Undying Thunder was about to strike him, he crushed the Spirit Talisman in his hand!

A black hole Vortex suddenly appeared behind Wang Lin. He took one step back, directly entered the black hole, and his figure immediately vanished! The Undying Thunder flashed and pursued him directly inside.

The Flashing Thunder Clan Grand Elder hesitated slightly, but seeing the Vortex about to dissipate, he had no time to think further. His body flashed forward and he rushed into the black hole Vortex!
