Chapter 1324: Peak of the Cloud Sea, Primordial Stars Command Token

Rolling black clouds covered the sky, tearing apart the sunlight and casting it down, merging with the rain, landing brokenly on the earth as a heavy downpour arrived. The whooshing sound was like ten thousand horses galloping in the distance, falling on rooftops, on the ground, and on every pedestrian in the streets.

Inside the house, one could clearly hear the patter of rain hitting the roof. The rainwater flowed down the eaves like a curtain, forming a veil of rain, which presented a unique feeling.

Especially the strings of leaves hanging under the eaves, rustling in the rain, causing the water to flow down and merge with the rain curtain from the eaves.

The earth had probably been dry for a long time; as soon as the rain fell, it swept away a large amount of dust and mist. However, this dust and mist had not yet risen too high before being immediately pierced by countless raindrops, shattering and returning to the earth, becoming part of the silt in muddy puddles.

Pedestrians hurried by, wearing straw cloaks, heads bowed and backs hunched. Despite the heavy rain, it was already dawn, so they naturally had to go to work.

Some children climbed onto the windows, reaching out to touch the rainwater, letting out joyful laughter that carried far in the rain.

This rain had come because of Wang Lin.

Wang Lin pushed open the door of his house and immediately felt a dampness carrying raindrops, carried by the wind, hit his face, which was very refreshing. He looked up at the rain-filled sky, where dark clouds billowed and thunder roared. As he watched, a bolt of lightning suddenly tore through the sky, and immediately after, a thunderous roar, like a startling thunderclap, boomed from the sky. It initially seemed far away, but instantly it was as if it were right by his ear, a deafening crash that immediately scared some children into not daring to approach the window.

Wang Lin's expression was calm. He picked up his wine pot, took a sip, and smiled as he looked at the familiar scenes of the mortal world in the rain. Those children, in particular, stirred memories in Wang Lin's heart.

Once upon a time, he too had climbed onto the window in his home on the Vermilion Bird Star, watching the rain fall, and had also reached out his hand, letting the rainwater fall on it, letting out joyful, childish laughter.

"Unknowingly, it's been almost two thousand years, hasn't it? Cultivators don't perceive the passage of time, and not many truly remember their age… I can't recall my exact age anymore…" Wang Lin held the wine pot, took another sip, his expression slightly melancholic.

The chill in the rain was heavy, subtly biting as it blew in, falling on Wang Lin and entering the house. After a moment of silence, Wang Lin was about to close the door when his expression suddenly shifted. He slowly looked up at the sky.

The sky was still filled with rolling dark clouds and pouring rain, obstructing all vision and even tearing apart gazes. But all of this had no effect on Wang Lin. He saw above the dark clouds, in the clear blue sky, two streaks of sword light whistling past.

The two people within the sword light, a man and a woman, the man wore a blue robe and was extremely handsome, his cultivation was not weak, vaguely at the窥涅 (Peering Nirvana) stage. Beside him, the woman had a graceful figure, wore a Phoenix-colored robe, and possessed a rather beautiful face, exuding an air of nobility.

Beneath them were the rolling dark clouds. Looking down from this position, one could clearly see lightning flickering within the clouds and thunder rumbling.

"Yue Xuan, the clan has issued an urgent summons this time, so something major must have happened. Your cultivation is insufficient, so don't overexert yourself!"

The woman in the colored robe looked softly at the man and said gently, "I'll listen to you. I just don't know what happened; it's quite rare for the clan Elders to issue an emergency summons like this."

The man's expression was solemn; he also had the same doubts in his heart. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly looked up sharply into the distance, raised his left hand to block in front of the woman, and they both stopped in mid-air.

A black wind howled from above the distant clouds. The black wind was originally heading in the same direction as the man and woman, but it clearly sensed them and changed direction, roaring towards them.

In just an instant, the black wind abruptly approached, and with a sudden swirl, a black-clothed youth emerged from within. His expression was indifferent. After appearing, his gaze lingered on the woman named Yue Xuan, and he fell silent there.

"Brother Zhou, I am Yu!" The man who stood in front of his Dao Companion, his pupils constricting, cupped his fists and said.

"Little sister greets Big Brother Zhou," the woman in the colored robe said softly with a gentle smile.

The black-clothed youth named Zhou had a complex expression. He withdrew his gaze and looked at the blue-robed man beside Yue Xuan, saying coldly, "The Flashing Thunder Clan has been annihilated! Its Grand Elder was defeated and disappeared. This matter has been confirmed by the Elder Council, which issued the Primordial Stars Command Token, informing all clans! This urgent summons from the clan is to announce the Elder Council's Seal decree!

Furthermore, the Elder Council's Great Division Cloud Fall, using the art of deducing the stars of heaven and earth, has calculated the image and Divine Sense mark of the culprit who annihilated the Flashing Thunder Clan and killed its Grand Elder. These have been disseminated to initiate the Primordial Myriad Spirit Sealing Kill!

This matter is of immense importance. I fear we too will have to go out and search. Even this Cultivation Planet must be thoroughly searched. You, take care of yourself!"

"What?!" The face of the man surnamed Yu drastically changed, his eyes showing disbelief. The woman beside him also revealed shock in her eyes.

"It is rumored that the Flashing Thunder Clan's Grand Elder's cultivation reached the fifth heavenly decay. No one except a Third Step mighty figure could have caused his demise. Could it be… could it be that this perpetrator is a Third Step mighty figure?"

"And the entire Flashing Thunder Clan, with tens of thousands of people and numerous experts, how could they have been completely annihilated?!"

"Moreover, the Flashing Thunder Clan also possesses the Indestructible Thunder, which is said to have existed since ancient times. This matter… this matter…"

The black-clothed youth was about to turn and leave, but hearing this, he turned back and said coldly, "The specifics are unknown, but the Elder Council's Seal decree mentioned that the Flashing Thunder Clan's Indestructible Thunder was devoured by that person! Currently, the entire Primordial is searching, and the Elder Council has even dispatched Elders to find this person!"

Below the dark clouds, in the rain-drenched city, Wang Lin withdrew his gaze from inside his house, his expression calm. He closed the door and sat cross-legged to the side.

His eyes flickered faintly, and he murmured, "They discovered it so quickly… the Elder Council… It seems I don't have much time. I need to quickly refine the last Thunder Dragon and then fuse with that Indestructible Thunder!"

In his silence, Wang Lin closed his eyes, immediately merging with his Primordial Spirit. Amidst the surging flames within, he refined the last Thunder Dragon.

Time flowed, and the rain outside grew heavier. The entire world was enveloped by dark clouds, pressing down upon the city, making the sky and earth dim.

Even at noon, not much sunlight penetrated the clouds. After more than half a day of refining, Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit flames roared and surged together. The last Primordial Thunder Dragon could no longer struggle, collapsing with a scream and being instantly absorbed by Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit!

At this moment, all eight Primordial Thunder Dragons had been fused by Wang Lin, completely becoming a part of himself. In this instant, his Primordial Spirit grew wildly, the flames within it dissipating, replaced by endless thunder.

Among his five Origins, this Origin of Thunder now swelled frantically, continuously growing stronger, shaking heaven and earth! Slowly, Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit was no longer in the shape of a Thunder Dragon, but a bolt of lightning!

A bolt of lightning connecting heaven and earth; that heaven was Wang Lin's head, that earth was Wang Lin's feet. This lightning connected the heaven and earth within him, just like the Flashing Thunder Clan's Indestructible Thunder, eternal and indestructible!

At the instant this bolt of lightning condensed and fully appeared, the clouds in the sky outside boomed, and as more rain poured down, the thunder within the clouds seemed to go mad, unleashing violent roars.

The entire Cultivation Planet could hear the astonishing thunder emanating from within the clouds!

In the imperial city, located in the eastern part of this capital, several elderly men in Daoist robes stood on a towering pavilion. Each of them possessed cultivation equivalent to Nirvana Cleansing, and one white-haired old man had already reached the shattered nirvana stage!

They all stood inside the pavilion, watching the rolling dark clouds in the sky and listening to the rumbling thunder, their expressions showing strangeness.

"This rain came a bit suddenly… And the thunder is also a bit too intense, but even with our combined Divine Sense sweeping, we haven't found any clues…"

"Perhaps we are just being overly cautious," a nearby Elder said in a deep voice.

"Alas, a great clan like the Flashing Thunder Clan was annihilated, and its Grand Elder also met a tragic end. Hearing about this, and then seeing the thunder before us, I always feel a sense of dread. Perhaps I really am overthinking things," the shattered nirvana Elder shook his head, no longer speaking.

"No matter who that person is, with the Primordial Stars Command Token issued this time, as long as their whereabouts are discovered, they are surely dead!"

In the eastern part of this Cultivation Planet, there was also a continuous mountain range. This was where the True Word Clan's mountain gate was located. Unlike the great Flashing Thunder Clan, the True Word Clan was a small clan, occupying a Cultivation Planet, similar to sects within the Inner Realm.

At this moment, within the True Word Clan's mountain gate, at the top of a mountain peak, a lone figure stood silently. This person had white hair and appeared extremely ancient. He gazed into the distance, and after a long while, he sighed softly, muttering to himself, "Why do I always have a feeling that a great disaster is imminent…"

Wang Lin knew time was urgent. After completely devouring the eight Primordial Thunder Dragons, he immediately released the Indestructible Thunder sealed within his body. The moment the Indestructible Thunder appeared, it immediately tried to break free from Wang Lin's body.

But at the instant it moved, Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit, which had already transformed into lightning, surged forth and directly collided with the Indestructible Thunder, initiating a rapid devour!

The Indestructible Thunder struggled violently, containing a will within it. This will was like a Cultivator's Divine Sense, engaging in a fierce battle with Wang Lin during this process of devouring and struggling!

"Fuse with me, become a part of my Primordial Spirit, let my Origin of Thunder achieve Major Achievement, and with the accompanying thunder, break through the firmament and enhance my cultivation!" Wang Lin's Divine Sense swept out like a storm, tearing apart all resistance from the Indestructible Thunder.

"Daoist Magic… Fusion!" Wang Lin's eyes suddenly opened. Within the pupils of his right eye, two different lightning Origin marks rotated rapidly, making him appear exceptionally strange and enchanting at this moment!
