458: Chapter 458 Thunderous Aura Slays Evil

"Form a defensive formation!"

Elder Qinglan shouted sharply, and together with Elder Xing Tiexin, they simultaneously erected a True Yuan barrier, protecting the main body of the cloud ship and most of the Disciples.

Yun Wuji, Yu Miaoqing, Feng Xuan, and the others also held their weapons, preparing for battle.

Ye Tian was not in a hurry to draw his sword.

He raised his hands, holding them in a void embrace before his chest, and the chaos bead within his body suddenly accelerated its rotation, causing his Five Elements Precious Body to react, blooming with five-colored precious light.

"Five Elements Rotation..."

Ye Tian chanted in a low voice, and gray-purple electric arcs began to jump around his body, rapidly becoming violent!

"Thunder Domain, open!"

"Boom!!!"

With Ye Tian as the center, a terrifying power erupted, instantly covering an airspace of nearly one hundred zhang in radius!

This Chaos Thunder Domain was at least five times larger in range than the one he had unleashed when confronting Yin Wujiang on the arena!

The power was even more than ten times stronger!

Those ghosts and skeletons, once they entered the range of the Thunder Domain, were instantly incinerated, not even having time to let out a scream!

The Thunder Domain suppressed the Death Qi of the Nether Abyss group until it vanished completely!

"This... what is this?!"

The leader of the black-clad men had his pupils shrink, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

He felt the Death Qi around his body draining away, and his body felt heavy, as if trapped in mud.

"Not good! Retreat quickly!" he shouted sharply.

However, it was already too late.

The Thunder Domain was formed, and Ye Tian was the Dominator of this Domain.

His gaze swept over the black-clad men struggling and panicking at the edge of the Thunder Domain, and his figure moved slightly.

"Swish!"

In the next instant, his figure disappeared from the spot.

"Ah!"

A scream rang out.

A Sea Transformation Third Stage black-clad man's body suddenly stiffened, a black hole appeared in his chest, transparent from front to back, with lightning arcs jumping; the vitality in his eyes dissipated rapidly, and he fell down.

Then Ye Tian's figure flashed in another place, a point of his fingertip shot out Thunder Gang, directly piercing through the head of a black-clad man who wanted to sneak attack from behind.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Every time his figure flickered, a black-clad man would inevitably fall while screaming.

Either having their Dantian shattered by a punch, their forehead pierced by a finger wind, or being struck into charcoal by casually summoned lightning.

In front of Ye Tian, who was erupting with full force, these Nether Abyss assassins, who were generally at the Sea Transformation Second Layer or Third Stage, with only a few at the fourth stage, had absolutely no power to fight back!

This sneak attack, instead, became a one-sided massacre!

After just a dozen breaths!

The sky-filling Thunder Domain suddenly retracted inward and quickly dissipated.

High in the sky, clarity was restored.

However, of the more than twenty black-clad men who were originally aggressive, only the leader at the Peak of the Sea Transformation Realm remained, barely hanging in the air.

But he was also charred all over, his clothes were torn, his Aura was weak, and one arm was twisted, having suffered heavy injuries.

While Ye Tian just stood quietly in place, seemingly without having expended much effort.

On the cloud ship, everyone from the Liuli Xuan Sect stared at this scene in astonishment, including Elder Qinglan and Elder Xing Tiexin.

Although they knew Ye Tian was very strong, they never expected him to be strong to this extent!

More than twenty Sea Transformation Realm Nether Abyss assassins, including a Peak fifth-stage one, were actually so vulnerable before him?!

What terrifying combat power this was!

Shui Qingdie covered her mouth tightly, her beautiful eyes shimmering with brilliance.

Yun Wuji, Yu Miaoqing, Feng Xuan, and the others looked at each other, all seeing the shock and complexity in each other's eyes.

More than a year ago, this Junior Brother was just an Outer Sect Disciple in the Ningyuan Realm.

And now he had already become the number one youth of the Great Yan Dynasty.

The gap between them and Ye Tian seemed to be getting larger and larger.

Ye Tian did not notice everyone's shock; he stepped out and slowly walked to the heavily injured black-clad leader.

At this moment, that person's eyes were filled with fear, struggling to retreat, but unable to muster any strength.

Ye Tian raised his foot and stepped on his chest.

"Who sent you?"

Ye Tian looked down at him: "The Nangong Family? Or that new Superior Envoy of yours?"

The black-clad leader had black blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, but upon hearing this, he grinned hideously, his eyes wild: "You... you will soon know. The Superior Envoy's layout is far beyond your imagination! You cannot escape... the Northern Wasteland..."

Before he could finish his words, he gritted his teeth, wanting to bite the hidden poison in his mouth to commit suicide.

Ye Tian's eyes turned cold, and he exerted a slight force under his foot.

"Crack!"

The black-clad leader's jawbone was instantly shattered, his teeth mixed with blood sprayed out, and the poison sac naturally could not be bitten.

He let out a painful sound, and despair finally appeared in his eyes.

Ye Tian couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with him anymore, extended his hand to press on his crown, and forced his spiritual sense into his Sea of Consciousness to perform Soul Searching!

"Uh... ah..."

The black-clad leader immediately convulsed violently, his eyes rolling back.

A moment later, Ye Tian let go, and his brows furrowed slightly.

The opponent's Sea of Consciousness had a Restriction placed on it, and most of the key memories had been locked or self-destructed.

He only captured some fragmented information: Endless Wasteland, ruins, gray mist, and a black-robed figure, as well as... the Northern Wasteland!

And a thought: The Superior Envoy has an important layout in the Northern Wasteland, must stop Ye Tian...

"The memories were under a Restriction..."

Ye Tian muttered to himself, glanced at the dying black-clad leader under his feet, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he flicked his finger.

A wisp of Thunder Gang sank into his forehead.

With a puff, the black-clad leader's body suddenly stiffened, and then turned into a pile of fly ash and dissipated.

Ye Tian turned around and stepped through the air back to the deck of the cloud ship.

"Ye Tian, how is it?"

Elder Qinglan immediately stepped forward and asked, and Elder Xing Tiexin also looked at him with concern.

Ye Tian told the two Elders the information obtained from the Soul Searching.

"The Northern Wasteland..."

Elder Qinglan's face became solemn: "That is the vast region outside the northern border of the Great Yan Dynasty, ten thousand miles of wilderness, with harsh environments and rampant demons, but there are also many ruins and dangerous places left over from ancient times. It has always been a place for adventurers, fugitives, and those seeking ancient secrets. The Superior Envoy of the Nether Abyss is actually laying out plans there..."

Elder Xing Tiexin said in a deep voice: "This matter is no small affair. The Nether Abyss has set its sights on you. This interception failed, and they will never give up. The Northern Wasteland has likely become a dangerous place. This matter needs to be reported to the Sect Head immediately, and we must deliberate on it at length."

Ye Tian nodded, his gaze cast toward the northern sky in the direction the cloud ship was heading, his eyes deep.

The matters of the Imperial Capital are finished, first return to the Sect to claim rewards and consolidate cultivation.

As for the Northern Wasteland, although dangerous, perhaps there are clues to the second half of the Mystic Tortoise True Explanation or the middle and lower volumes of the Chaos Thunder Emperor Sword Scripture!

"This Disciple understands."

Ye Tian said to the two Elders: "This Disciple believes that the urgent matter is to return to the Sect first. The matter of the Northern Wasteland requires careful preparation."

Elder Qinglan looked at Ye Tian approvingly: "It is very good that you can be so calm. Let's return to the Sect first."

The cloud ship started again and sailed in the direction of the Liuli Xuan Sect.

Having experienced this sudden attack, the atmosphere on the ship became much more serious, and while the Disciples were adjusting their breathing, they also became a bit more vigilant.

Ye Tian returned to his cabin.

He sat cross-legged, looked inside his body, and found that his cultivation had actually improved after experiencing successive battles, and he was not far from the Middle Stage of the fifth stage.

The Five Elements Precious Body was also close to Major Achievement.

But thinking of the Nether Abyss, the fleeing Nangong Lie, the Northern Wasteland, and the life-and-death battle agreed upon with Li Xuanxiao in one year...

Ye Tian's desire for cultivation became even stronger.

He slowly closed his eyes, began to operate the Chaos Derivation Art, while continuing to comprehend the method of Thunder Gang, and tried to impact the seventh layer of the Dragon Elephant Art.

Time passed quietly in cultivation.

I don't know how long it had been, when Ye Tian suddenly had a feeling in his heart and ended his cultivation.

He got up, walked out of the cabin, and came to the deck at the bow of the ship again.

It was now evening, and the sun was setting in the west.

Below the cloud ship, the outline of the Qinglan Mountain Range where the Liuli Xuan Sect was located could be vaguely seen.

Ye Tian looked toward that unknown land in the north, and muttered to himself: "The Northern Wasteland..."

"Nether Abyss... no matter how many conspiracies you have laid out there, no matter how many death traps you have set..."

"I will shatter them one by one!!"
