314: Ancient Thunder Lake

“Arrogant!”

“Since you are so stubborn, this Emperor wants to see what abilities you truly possess!”

Boom—!

The blue-robed middle-aged man’s face sank, and a terrifying pressure instantly erupted from his body. He then activated the ancient cauldron, pushing its power to the extreme, and attacked Wu Ning again.

“Fellow Daoist, be careful!”

Yue Feng couldn't help but shout a reminder.

He would rather the seven-colored immortal lotus be taken by someone else than see it fall into the hands of the blue-robed middle-aged man.

“Die for this Emperor!”

The blue-robed middle-aged man’s eyes were fierce as he swung the ancient cauldron in his hand with all his might towards Wu Ning. The ancient cauldron glowed brightly, containing extremely terrifying power, as if it could destroy everything.

At the same time, the two powerhouses who were besieging another Immortal Emperor in Yue Feng’s team suddenly retreated sharply, and together they activated their Immortal Emperor artifacts to attack Wu Ning.

Boom, boom—!

Three Immortal Emperor artifacts, carrying terrifying power capable of destroying the heavens and earth, violently shattered the Void Realm, striking Wu Ning from different directions, instantly reaching him.

It was at this very moment.

A faint, eerie light flashed in Wu Ning’s calm eyes.

The space-time around him instantly solidified.

Crack—

Countless dense cracks appeared out of nowhere on the three Immortal Emperor artifacts attacking him, spreading rapidly, covering the entire Immortal artifacts in an instant, and then they exploded into countless fragments with a loud bang.

“Pfft!”

The blue-robed middle-aged man and the other two instantly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. With their Natal Immortal Emperor artifacts destroyed, they immediately suffered a terrifying backlash and were severely wounded in an instant.

“This… how is this possible?!”

They stared blankly at their destroyed Natal Immortal Emperor artifacts, their eyes filled with disbelief.

“Run!”

The blue-robed middle-aged man reacted instantly, letting out a terrified roar and immediately flashing away into the distance. His movements were incredibly practiced; to increase his escape speed, he even began to frantically burn his Origin essence blood.

“Didn’t you want to see what abilities this Dao Child possesses? Why are you running?”

Boom!

Wu Ning chuckled playfully, no longer interested in wasting words with him, and directly slapped him into nothingness.

The other two Immortal Emperors were scared out of their wits and immediately unleashed their trump card Divine Abilities, fleeing desperately into the distance.

Bang, bang!

Wu Ning turned slightly, and with a sweep of his gaze, the two instantly exploded into two clouds of blood mist.

“This, this…”

Yue Feng and the others watched in horror. Three Immortal Emperor powerhouses, just like that, dead?

What kind of existence was this person? He was simply too terrifying!

Seeing Wu Ning’s gaze fall upon them, they trembled all over with fear and immediately flashed backward.

After retreating a certain distance, Yue Feng stopped abruptly and respectfully cupped his hands towards Wu Ning, saying:

“Senior…”

Swish!

The seven-colored immortal lotus appeared out of nowhere in front of him, interrupting his subsequent words.

Wu Ning had no intention of conversing with him and simply turned and left.

“Thank you, Senior!”

Yue Feng looked at the seven-colored immortal lotus, which he had regained, with surprise and shouted his thanks to Wu Ning.

However, Wu Ning had already vanished from his sight.

“What a kind Senior!”

Yue Feng couldn't help but sigh, then waved his hand to put away the seven-colored immortal lotus, and looked at the Quasi Immortal Emperors who had followed the blue-robed middle-aged man, a fierce glint in his eyes.

Boom, boom!

He directly attacked, and in just a few palms, he annihilated all those Quasi Immortal Emperors.

At this moment, another Immortal Emperor from his team flew to his side and said, “Boss, did you hear what that Senior called himself just now? Could he be the one from Chaos Academy?”

Yue Feng’s gaze paused, then he nodded, “It should be….”

“No wonder I felt that Senior was excessively young, yet his strength was so terrifying. So he is the Wu Clan Dao Child from Chaos Academy.”

“Rumors truly cannot be fully believed. This Wu Clan Dao Child Your Highness is clearly a good person who enjoys helping others and does good deeds without seeking recognition. Where is the indiscriminate killing and ruthless cruelty as rumored? It’s all pure nonsense!”

“Hmph!”

“If anyone dares to slander the reputation of the Dao Child of the Wu Clan in front of this Emperor again in the future, I’ll beat the shit out of them!”

…

On the other side.

After Wu Ning left Fallen Immortal Valley, he immediately flew towards the next life restricted zone.

The Hunyuan Ancestral Realm has five major life restricted zones: besides Death Ridge and Fallen Immortal Valley, there are also Inclined World Mountain, Reincarnation Cave, and Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp.

Wu Ning spent less than half a month visiting Inclined World Mountain and Reincarnation Cave. The danger level of these two places was comparable to Death Ridge.

Guided by Ink Treasure, he moved as if entering an uninhabited land, encountering no difficulties along the way.

After completing his check-ins at these two major restricted zones, Wu Ning then rushed non-stop to the last restricted zone:

—Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp.

This restricted zone, as its name suggests, is a terrifying great swamp perennially covered by thunder, spanning half a heavenly domain. It formed naturally and has existed for over ten ancient epochs.

Over such a long period, the Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp has nurtured countless terrifying thunder-elemental beings, and in its deepest reaches, there resides a Thunder Saint Spirit comparable to a Celestial Sovereign powerhouse.

However, most powerhouses only lingered in the outer regions and dared not venture deep.

Naturally, they wouldn't encounter those terrifying Thunder Saint Spirits.

For them, the most terrifying aspect of the Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp was its environment.

The Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp is covered by thunder all year round, and the distribution of these thunderbolts is completely irregular; they can appear without warning in any corner, and their power is frighteningly strong.

Even the thunder in the outermost regions is enough to deter powerhouses below the Immortal Emperor Realm.

As for the Barren Ancient Divine Thunder in the depths, even Immortal Emperor powerhouses dared not withstand it directly.

If a large-scale thunderous storm occurred, even a Dao Lord Great Power would have to retreat a great distance.

Of course, danger often comes with opportunity.

The Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp, a naturally formed thunder domain that has existed for countless years, not only nurtures various thunder-elemental beings but also produces a large number of thunder-attribute Heaven And Earth Treasure.

For those powerhouses who cultivate the Thunder Dao, this place is absolutely a supreme cultivation treasure land.

Wu Ning directly crossed the Void Realm and arrived at the Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp in a short amount of time.

Perhaps he arrived at an inconvenient time, as a super-large-scale thunderous storm, a rare sight in hundreds of millions of years, was currently occurring there.

Even from an extremely long distance, one could clearly see countless terrifying black thunderbolts rolling and swirling in the sky above the swamp, brewing world-destroying terrifying power. It was a pitch-black expanse, almost covering half of the Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp.

Currently, a large number of powerhouses had gathered around the Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp.

They were divided into different factions or groups, quietly waiting for the thunderous storm to end and dissipate, with no one daring to act rashly.

The current situation was such that even Dao Lord powerhouses dared not venture deep.

But according to past experience, after every super-large-scale thunderous storm in the Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp, a large number of thunderous anomalies or Heaven And Earth Treasure would basically be born.

Most of these people were attracted by this thunderous storm, while the rest were powerhouses who had been cultivating and exploring in the Barren Ancient Thunder Swamp for many years.

Swish!

Wu Ning directly descended on the edge of the swamp, immediately attracting the attention of some people.
