Extra – Wen Susu (V)

“You arrogant Young man, if you have the ability, break the Mountain Protecting Formation and let me see it.”

Black Tan Old Daoist’s face was filled with disdain. In his opinion, the other party was merely bluffing and trying to scare him.

This was a Mountain Protecting Formation, not an ordinary Formation. It was no exaggeration to say that no one in the entire Lower Heaven Region could break it.

Black Cloud Daoist Temple was considered an old Sect, having weathered many years of storms. During this time, it had encountered powerful enemies several times, relying on this Formation to protect the Sect’s safety.

In his eyes, even if the opponent’s strength was greater than his own, even if he could reach the Immortal Lord Rank, it would be impossible to break the Formation by force.

As for a Formation Master, he hadn't even considered it. To have such a high Rank at such a Young age was already a Prodigy, so how could he possibly be an Immortal Array Master?

Black Sand Daoist’s Master had died, and at this moment, he was gritting his teeth in hatred. He dared not go out, standing inside and continuously shouting.

“Young man, if you have the ability, break the Formation! Otherwise, when Immortal King arrives, he will surely make your Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!”

In his heart, he also believed that Ye Qinghuang could not be an Immortal Array Master.

“Alright, since you all want to die, then I shall grant your wish!”

Ye Qinghuang smiled coldly. Just as everyone had guessed, he was indeed not an Immortal Array Master, but that didn't mean he couldn't break this Formation.

With a flick of his wrist, a pearl shimmering with lightning flew into the air, like a lightning sun appearing in the sky. An incredibly powerful pressure permeated the entire area.

This was precisely the Heavenly Thunder Pearl, Ye Bufan’s personal Magic Treasure, which was later refined into a Sacred Artifact. Now, it had been passed down to his son.

However, there was a Seal on it that Ye Qinghuang had not fully broken, otherwise, the space here would probably shatter.

In other words, the power currently being driven was only one percent, or even less, of the Heavenly Thunder Pearl’s own power.

“What is this thing?”

Everyone in Black Cloud Daoist Temple was dumbfounded, each looking up at the sky. Although they didn't know what it was, the immense power filled everyone's hearts with fear.

Black Tan Old Daoist was even more stunned. He had never seen a Sacred Artifact, but he could be certain that this thing was even more powerful than a top-grade Immortal Artifact.

However, even now, he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart. After all, this was the Sect’s Mountain Protecting Formation, of an extremely high Rank. As long as it could hold out until Immortal King Jifeng arrived, there would be a glimmer of hope.

Ye Qinghuang raised his hand and cast a spell, and the Heavenly Thunder Pearl rumbled with thunder, releasing a thick bolt of lightning tens of meters long.

Like a Thunder Dragon crawling out of Hell, or a judgment from the end of the world, it directly struck the Mountain Protecting Formation of Black Cloud Daoist Temple.

“Boom!”

With a loud bang, the golden barrier, under the impact of the huge lightning, violently caved in, forming a massive vortex that trembled continuously. But it ultimately held, not shattering.

Seeing this scene, the people of Black Cloud Daoist Temple finally felt their nervous hearts settle. Although the opponent’s lightning was astonishingly powerful, it was ultimately blocked.

But before these people could even let out a sigh of relief, thunder rumbled in the sky again, and an even larger bolt of lightning condensed.

In fact, the Heavenly Thunder Pearl could easily wipe out the Mountain Protecting Formation, and even destroy Black Cloud Daoist Temple.

However, it was Ye Qinghuang's first time controlling the Heavenly Thunder Pearl in actual combat, and he dared not unleash too much power, otherwise, if he really destroyed the space here, he would inevitably be punished by his father upon returning.

So he was gradually experimenting. After the first trial, the power was increased by another three points for the second time.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

Under everyone's shocked gaze, the second bolt of lightning struck down.

It must be said that the Mountain Protecting Formation of Black Cloud Daoist Temple truly had some ability. Even with such powerful lightning Qi, it still held.

It sank deeper and deeper, and the entire golden barrier became almost transparent, but it ultimately withstood the second strike.

Only this time, the entire mountain gate, including Black Cloud Daoist Temple, shook, showing the immense power of the lightning.

Black Tan Old Daoist was terrified. He clearly felt that if the lightning increased by another point, the Formation would truly break.

Not through Formation, but by forcibly breaking the Mountain Protecting Formation with the power of lightning—a method of breaking Formations that he had never dared to imagine before, but was now vividly displayed before him.

If another bolt of lightning came, it was certain that the Formation would truly be lost.

He regretted it now. He shouldn’t have provoked this Young man just now; he should have stabilized the other party first.

“Young man, we can discuss this. As long as you let Black Sand go, you can name any condition. I am willing to offer 100 million Immortal Crystals as compensation…”

Black Sand Old Daoist was his only illegitimate son, and no matter what, he could not hand him over, but everything else was negotiable.

In his mind, as long as the conditions he offered were generous enough, the other party would surely agree, after all, there was no deep-seated hatred.

But what he didn't expect was that Ye Qinghuang merely snorted coldly, “I gave you a chance, but unfortunately, it’s too late now!”

As he spoke, he cast another spell, and thunder rumbled as the third bolt of lightning descended.

“Crack!”

This time it was clean and swift. One bolt of lightning directly shattered the Mountain Protecting Formation, the golden light dissipated, and everyone lost their protection.

Under the residual power, the entire Black Cloud Daoist Temple trembled continuously, the earth shook, space vibrated, and several nearby buildings directly collapsed.

Everyone was scared to the point of their Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. They wanted to escape, but the Heavenly Thunder Pearl in the sky changed again.

Tiny bolts of lightning densely covered the sky, forming a massive sea of lightning that enveloped everyone.

They could clearly feel that any slight movement would bring about a catastrophic disaster.

They had witnessed the power of the lightning just now; even the Mountain Protecting Formation could not protect against it, let alone their fragile Physical Body.

At this moment, everyone was so frightened that they stood there obediently, not daring to move.

At this, Black Tan Old Daoist’s heart sank to the bottom. The other party was not boasting, but truly capable of breaking his Mountain Protecting Formation, and even had the power to annihilate the Sect.

Who exactly was this Young man? What kind of Rank was this? Had the other party been hiding his strength all along?

Black Sand Old Daoist was so scared that he plopped down on the ground. He had thought before that Ye Jiucai might have a background, but he never expected it to be so powerful that their entire Sect combined could not contend with it.

Wen Susu looked at the tall figure before her, her emotions incredibly complex.

For all these years, she had always taken the other party as her goal, continuously Cultivating, hoping to be worthy of him.

But what was the result? Everything she had done was a joke. Not to mention Ye Bufan himself, she couldn't even compare to his son, or even his daughter.

Ye Qinghuang’s expression was stern as he controlled the sea of lightning in the sky, looking at the crowd before him with Killing Intent.

“Since you won’t hand him over, then all of you shall die!”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved, preparing to unleash countless bolts of lightning.

The people of Black Cloud Daoist Temple were completely terrified. They knew very well that once these bolts of lightning descended, there would be no chance of survival; the entire Sect would be completely obliterated.

As cultivators, they were not afraid of death, but no one had expected it to be in this manner.

And just as everyone was in despair, a majestic shout came from afar, “Stop!”
