121: Thunder Punishment Platform, Slaying Wind and Thunder

"Revered Master, it's bad, Senior Brother Wuchang has been punished..."

Cang Qing ran to Meng Caihong's cultivation site, her face involuntarily showing a trace of panic.

Although she didn't know exactly how severe the Seven Days of Thunder Punishment was, just hearing the name told her it was definitely not an easy matter!

But before Cang Qing could finish, Meng Caihong waved her hand, cutting off what Cang Qing was about to say next!

The Sect Leader's words had just echoed throughout the entire Sect, so she naturally heard them clearly.

Meng Caihong didn't need to ask the Sect Leader; she had already guessed what was going on in her heart!

"Sigh, this child, I underestimated him after all!"

Meng Caihong spoke softly, a faint smile appearing at the corner of her mouth!

"Cang Qing, go tell the others that I know about this matter, and they should just focus on their cultivation!"

Upon hearing this, Cang Qing quickly nodded!

Since even her Revered Master wasn't worried, she felt relieved as well.

Over at Wind and Thunder Valley, there was an uproar!

Eighth Elder Jia Yuanliang accompanied Ji Wuchang as they appeared in Wind and Thunder Valley.

Countless gazes fell upon Ji Wuchang, many with rather complex expressions in their eyes!

The Seven Days of Thunder Punishment was indeed a form of punishment, but it was also an Opportunity.

Thunder represents destruction, yet within that destruction lies immense vitality.

Back then, after Zhen Miaoqing completed the Seven Days of Thunder Punishment, her strength doubled.

Huang Wanqiu and Zuo Yan joined forces but were suppressed single-handedly by Zhen Miaoqing.

It must be noted that at that time, Zhen Miaoqing's cultivation was only at the ninth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, on par with Huang Wanqiu and Zuo Yan.

After emerging from Wind and Thunder Valley, Zhen Miaoqing broke through to the Purple Mansion Realm in less than a month.

A year later, she reached the second level of the Purple Mansion Realm, while Huang Wanqiu and Zuo Yan remained stagnant until after Zhen Miaoqing left, when they finally broke through one after another!

Therefore, regarding the Thunder Punishment Platform, the Disciples of the Changsheng Sect both anticipated it and were filled with fear in their hearts!

That place was usually not open to the public, but now they could finally witness someone ascending the Thunder Punishment Platform once again!

Huang Wanqiu arrived!

Zuo Yan arrived!

Both were now at the first level of the Purple Mansion Realm!

They looked at Ji Wuchang, complex emotions flashing in their eyes!

They understood the reason for Ji Wuchang's punishment because they had also experienced the events of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm.

In Ji Wuchang, they saw the shadow of Zhen Miaoqing!

Those who could refuse the Legacy of the Ancestral Land were all individuals with great ambition and immense perseverance in their hearts.

"Open the Thunder Punishment Platform!"

Jia Yuanliang shouted lightly, forming hand seals with both hands and pointing a finger toward the Thunder Pool!

As Jia Yuanliang's finger descended, the Thunder Pool rumbled and shook, and a massive pillar rose from within the Thunder Pool!

On the pillar, a Thunder Dragon was carved coiling upward, emitting a terrifying pressure.

Below the pillar was a platform, just large enough to accommodate one person.

This place was the Thunder Punishment Platform, also the most fearsome punitive method of the Changsheng Sect.

Among those who ascended the Thunder Punishment Platform, only one person had come down unscathed so far, and that was Great Senior Sister Zhen Miaoqing.

Huang Wanqiu and Zuo Yan had also attempted it, but they could only endure for less than a day before being unable to bear it any longer!

"Wuchang, are you ready? If so, you may proceed!"

Jia Yuanliang glanced at Ji Wuchang and spoke calmly.

Upon hearing this, Ji Wuchang nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you, Eighth Elder!"

After speaking, Ji Wuchang's body flickered, and he directly arrived on the Thunder Punishment Platform.

As soon as he stood, dense lightning surged toward him, engulfing him in the thunder and lightning.

Everyone who saw this scene paled.

With so much lightning, many would probably not last even a quarter of an hour up there.

But Ji Wuchang had to endure it for seven days.

Jia Yuanliang waved his hand, and a Jade Slip flew toward Ji Wuchang.

"Keep this Jade Slip. If you truly cannot endure, crush it, and I will go request instructions from the Sect Leader!"

After speaking, Jia Yuanliang waved his hand, and a barrier formed, enveloping the Thunder Punishment Platform.

Then, the Thunder Punishment Platform slowly descended, submerging into the Thunder Pool!

At this moment, no one could see Ji Wuchang, but they knew that at the bottom of this Thunder Pool, he was undergoing the Thunder Punishment!

Ji Wuchang was now sitting cross-legged; the Jade Slip given by the Eighth Elder, he directly placed into his Storage Ring.

He was quite grateful to the Eighth Elder; this person was stern on the outside but warm-hearted!

Lightning entered Ji Wuchang's body, and he instantly felt a tingling pain throughout!

The thunder sphere in his Dantian was rapidly rotating, continuously absorbing the spiritual energy entering the Dantian from all directions.

A faint smile appeared on Ji Wuchang's face. Now that he had entered the Foundation Establishment Realm, it was time to Cultivate the second move of the Wind and Thunder Fist.

The Wind and Thunder Fist had a total of nine forms and nine punches; each major Realm advancement allowed the cultivation of one form.

This second punch was called Slaying Wind and Thunder, also known as Slashing Wind and Thunder!

Once unleashed, it would condense a wind and thunder blade, slashing through everything, its power several times greater than Wind and Thunder Transformation!

Ji Wuchang had originally thought of taking some time to Cultivate in Wind and Thunder Valley after returning to the Sect, and now this suited him perfectly.

Moreover, although his Wind-Thunder Void Step had reached Minor Achievement, there was still immense room for improvement.

This place had incredibly rich wind and thunder energy, making it the ideal location to strengthen his Wind-Thunder Void Step.

Starting from the Purple Mansion Realm, each level advancement of the Purple Qi Burning Heaven Art required refining fire-attribute natural spiritual objects.

Transforming thunder into fire, the wind and thunder flame, was precisely a fire-attribute natural wonder!

It could be said that being able to Cultivate on the Thunder Punishment Platform was exactly what Ji Wuchang desired!

If not for fear of exposing too much, he would have liked to beg the Sect Leader to extend his Thunder Punishment time by a few more days!

The terrifying thunder and lightning energy completely swallowed Ji Wuchang, making him appear as a giant glowing sphere.

Within Ji Wuchang's body, rumbling vibrations occurred as nine dao platforms manifested.

On the dao platforms, buzzing vibrations emitted a suction force, devouring the thunder and lightning energy.

Under the tempering of the thunder and lightning energy, special runes began to slowly appear on Ji Wuchang's nine dao platforms.

In Ji Wuchang's Divine Soul Sea of Consciousness, the divine soul dao platform emerged; any lightning that entered the Sea of Consciousness was instantly devoured by the divine soul dao platform, vanishing without a trace.

His expression was solemn as he circulated the energy pathway for Slaying Wind and Thunder within his body.

Executing Slaying Wind and Thunder required several times more thunder and lightning energy than Wind and Thunder Transformation.

If he were outside, Ji Wuchang wouldn't dare to repeatedly consume thunder and lightning energy to attempt it, but here he had no reservations at all!

Ji Wuchang clenched his right fist, thunder and lightning energy rapidly gathering in his hand.

A thunder blade composed of lightning appeared. His fist seemed to have become the hilt!

A smile involuntarily appeared on Ji Wuchang's face; he had grasped the essence of Slaying Wind and Thunder!

He did not throw the punch but instead let the thunder blade dissipate, then he condensed the thunder blade again!

He repeated this cycle over and over, continuously, until later he lost count of how many times he had done it.

But at this moment, countless lightning runes covered Ji Wuchang's thunder blade, and the thunder blade had swollen several times in size!
