143: Chapter 173 Great Harvest, Jade Purity Thunder Technique

In a daze, Jiang Ling felt as if the statue had opened its eyes, looking at him with a majestic and kind gaze.

"This..."

Jiang Ling was startled; this statue was indeed extraordinary.

"I am the Yuqing Primordial Heavenly Revered One!"

"Since the Disciple bows with sincerity, I shall bestow the Dao Law!"

"This is the Yuqing Thunder Technique Mind-Cultivation Technique Secret Manual; listen carefully!"

Next, Jiang Ling felt a burst of dizziness and swelling in his head as content regarding Daoist secret techniques flooded into his mind.

"Yuqing Thunder Technique?"

"Primordial Heavenly Revered One!"

*Hiss!*

"The Primordial Heavenly Revered One truly exists in this world."

"I've hit the jackpot!"

...

Jiang Ling focused his mind, carefully digesting the Yuqing Thunder Technique transmitted from the statue of the Primordial Heavenly Revered One.

He possessed God-tier Comprehension Ability; although this Yuqing Thunder Technique was extremely profound and complex, he still understood it with ease.

The Yuqing Thunder Technique was a Daoist Mind-Cultivation Technique specifically for cultivating thunderous power, and its might was immense.

Even though Jiang Ling had only comprehended a portion of it, he could already feel its heaven-shaking power.

He knelt on the prayer mat, continuously listening and perceiving, while the lightning all over his body crackled incessantly.

At this moment, Jiang Ling once again lost his sense of time; it felt like an endless eternity, yet also like a fleeting instant.

By the time he opened his eyes, he didn't know how much time had passed.

Meanwhile, a clamorous noise was ringing outside; it was those Island Country Martial Artists arriving.

"The things of our Great Xia cannot be stolen by the people of the Island Country!"

Jiang Ling stood up, looked at the statue, and bowed down once more.

"This Disciple is incompetent and cannot protect the Saint's statue. To prevent it from falling into the hands of thieves, I can only destroy it!"

"I hope the Saint will not take offense!"

Jiang Ling stood up again, took a deep breath, brought out the blood transformation divine saber, and slashed down at the statue of the Primordial Heavenly Revered One.

*Puff!*

The statue was only made of wood, not metal. With this single strike, Jiang Ling cleaved the head right off the statue.

Jiang Ling picked up the head, apologized repeatedly, and placed the head into his spatial ring.

Just then, a group of Island Country Martial Artists filed in, led by that Woman in White Clothes.

Upon seeing Jiang Ling, they were all startled and immediately went on guard.

"A Great Xia Martial Artist?"

"There's actually only one person!"

The other party spoke in the Great Xia language.

"What's wrong with being one person?"

Jiang Ling spoke coldly.

"This is the territory of our Great Xia!"

"You Island Country Martial Artists actually dare to come here and snatch our Great Xia's resources? Do you really think our Great Xia is someone to be bullied at will?"

"What an arrogant brat!" a Martial Artist behind the Woman in White Clothes snorted and said coldly.

"A single person in front of us, and you still dare to spout such nonsense!"

"You're truly looking for death!"

...

"Who is the one looking for death?"

Jiang Ling said coldly, "Those who offend my Great Xia shall be punished, no matter how far away they are!"

"This Secret Realm is a product of the Laws of Heaven and Earth; it does not belong to anyone," the Woman in White Clothes said slowly after sizing Jiang Ling up.

"We are all part of the Human Race; we should work together to confront these Secret Realms."

"If we resort to killing each other in the face of natural disasters, then that would truly be greedy, selfish, and short-sighted!"

"Hmm?" Jiang Ling's eyes narrowed slightly; he hadn't expected this Woman in White Clothes to be so silver-tongued.

"Don't try to take the moral high ground with us."

Jiang Ling snorted coldly, "You Island Country people have your own Secret Realms, so why come to our Great Xia? Is it not out of ulterior motives?"

"In the end, isn't it just because you want to snatch our resources?"

"Young Miss, let's just kill him and be done with it. Why waste words on him?" said the Martial Artist behind the Woman in White Clothes.

The Woman in White Clothes was non-committal and turned to look at the statue whose head had been cleaved off.

"Is there a treasure inside the head of this statue?"

"treasures belong to the virtuous."

"Please hand it over!"

...

"You want me to hand it over? Fat chance!"

Jiang Ling snorted.

"This statue is part of our Great Xia's culture, a legacy of the Great Xia ancestors!"

"Then you can't blame us!"

The Woman in White Clothes shook her head slightly. "It's a pity. For a Genius like you, if you didn't die, your future would be limitless!"

"So much nonsense. In the end, aren't you just here in our Great Xia to kill people and steal treasures!"

Jiang Ling's face was full of disdain as he raised his blood saber, lightning flashing across his body.

This was the typical nature of the Island Country people.

"I'll go kill him!"

A fifth-rank Martial Artist behind the Woman in White Clothes stepped out with a loud shout, his body rushing forward rapidly. The samurai sword in his hand carried a chilling frost aura as he slashed toward Jiang Ling.

Jiang Ling focused, his eyes narrowing slightly. He took a step forward and violently swung the blood transformation divine saber.

*Crackle...*

Lightning coiled around the blood transformation divine saber and went wild, completely enveloping the fifth-rank Island Country Martial Artist.

*Puff!*

This fifth-rank Island Country Martial Artist was directly cleaved in half by Jiang Ling's single strike!

The Yuqing Thunder Technique was a true lightning-element Cultivation Technique. Unlike the Black Tortoise Breathing Technique, it allowed Jiang Ling's Supernatural Ability, World-Ending Divine Thunder, to achieve a qualitative leap and improvement.

Although he had only just started, its power had already increased Jiang Ling's strength several times over.

With one strike, this fifth-rank Island Country Martial Artist was simply unable to resist!

"What?"

The remaining Island Country Martial Artists were all instantly shocked.

The Woman in White Clothes also showed a look of shock.

Jiang Ling's strength was only at the fourth rank, yet he had actually insta-killed a fifth-rank Martial Artist. What kind of strength was this?

"I misjudged you!"

The Woman in White Clothes spoke indifferently.

"Your strength is very high!"

"Now, I will personally take action!"

As the Woman in White Clothes spoke, she drew the pink long sword in her hand.

"So what if you personally take action?"

Having the Yuqing Thunder Technique, Jiang Ling's confidence was greatly boosted.

Previously, he wouldn't have been certain about confronting this Woman in White Clothes, but now, he was completely fearless.

Even if he couldn't win, he wouldn't lose.

*Swish!*

This Woman in White Clothes' movement speed was extremely fast, reaching Jiang Ling's front in an instant.

The pink samurai sword in her hand slashed through the air, manifesting a criss-crossing Saber Qi.

Jiang Ling immediately felt a sense of immense crisis.

"Thunder Moves the Eight Directions!"

Jiang Ling roared, and the Seven Absolute Blades of the Thunder Prison was unleashed.

The Seven Absolute Blades of the Thunder Prison was a blade skill combined with thunder Laws; as the thunder Law grew stronger, the Blade Technique became even more potent!

*Rumble...*

Jiang Ling's blood transformation divine saber shone with a blood-colored light, entwined with a massive Dragon made of lightning, as it met the Woman in White Clothes' Saber Qi.

*Boom boom boom...*

Following a series of violent explosions, the entire main hall was instantly turned into a mess. Huge pillars collapsed, bricks and stones were pulverized and sent flying in all directions.

Jiang Ling retreated three steps, while the Woman in White Clothes retreated one step!

A look of surprise appeared in the Woman in White Clothes' beautiful eyes; Jiang Ling had actually completely blocked her full-power strike.

This thunder Law was truly powerful!

*Swish swish swish...*

The Woman in White Clothes brandished her samurai sword again. In an instant, the surroundings were filled with pink Saber Qi, like falling cherry blossoms, cutting and shredding everything.

Jiang Ling was fearless, his body surging with purple lightning as he slashed toward the Woman in White Clothes.

*Boom... boom... boom...*

Lightning and pink Saber Qi collided, creating a series of explosions. The palace shattered instantly, and the roof was blown away.
