217: Chapter 217 Thousand Miles of Thunder Wall

But after a second thought, it was impossible.

Crimson Prison had sworn a heavenly dao oath, and the restrictions covered every aspect concerning Su Mo, leaving absolutely no loopholes.

That could only mean that Crimson Prison was imprisoned somewhere.

Obviously, it was the place guarded by the Tribulation Crossing Stage Cultivators of the Blood Prison Sacred Land.

"Young friend, if you wish to rescue the Nether Abyss Dragon Emperor, we must make a long-term plan for this matter..."

Heavenly Valley was interrupted by Su Mo, who shook his head before he could finish:

"I naturally know that, but for now... let's first resolve the current predicament."

He glanced at the surging Blood Beast Tide before him. With a thought, countless Insect Race creatures appeared behind him without warning, circling in the sky to form an insect cloud even denser than the dark clouds over the Immortal Burial Battlefield.

Heavenly Valley's pupils suddenly contracted:

"This is... the Insect Race?! Young friend, you..."

It is well known that the Insect Race is massive in number and reproduces extremely quickly, but similarly, it is extremely difficult for them to develop sentience.

Generally speaking, it is difficult to encounter such a large number of Insect Race creatures even over thousands of years; only Cultivators who control insects would specifically cultivate them.

But with such a terrifying number, where every single one possesses cultivation at Nascent Soul Stage Perfection or above, the resources consumed are unimaginably vast.

Even his Tian Family's Tianyuan Merchant Guild could not bear this kind of expenditure.

Looking at Heavenly Valley's shocked expression, Su Mo smiled slightly.

With a slight movement of his mind, he directly ordered the Insect Swarm to charge forward. They did not form any battle array and appeared extremely disorganized.

Heavenly Valley watched this scene and quickly advised:

"Young friend, stop quickly! The Blood Beasts are at least Soul Transformation Stage in strength. If you let the Insect Swarm charge up so haphazardly, it won't have any effect and will result in heavy casualties. If only we focus the attack on one point..."

His eyes were filled with distress. Su Mo would soon be part of his Tian Family, and these powerful and numerous Insect Race creatures would also be part of the Tian Family's strength in the future. Using such a suicidal fighting style made him feel quite pained.

Facing Heavenly Valley's advice, Su Mo remained unmoved.

With a shift of his thoughts, an aura of Breakthrough immediately rose from the Insect Race creatures that had already rushed into the Blood Beasts. The dark clouds, already thick in the sky, began to grow even denser.

At the same time, purple lightning faintly appeared in the clouds.

Seeing this scene, all the Cultivators were stunned.

They originally thought the arrival of these Insect Race creatures would help relieve much of the pressure from the Blood Beasts, but they never expected them to be Undergoing Tribulation amidst the Blood Beasts.

"Retreat quickly!"

"Fall back fast!"

...Under Su Mo's control, the Insect Swarm's position was already pushed as far into the Blood Beasts as possible, but it still covered a small portion of the Human Race Cultivators.

However, Su Mo had already given them time to retreat.

As soon as the Cultivators withdrew from the range of the Lightning Tribulation, the first wave of Lightning Tribulation crashed down.

The blinding lightning instantly engulfed the entire battlefield, and tens of thousands of Blood Beasts were annihilated in the Heavenly Lightning.

The massive number of Insect Race creatures uniformly covered the Blood Beast Tide that stretched for a thousand miles. The descent of the Lightning Tribulation formed a high wall spanning several thousand miles that the Blood Beasts simply could not cross.

Heavenly Valley looked at this astonishing scene and muttered:

"Using the Heavenly Tribulation as a weapon... This old man has cultivated for tens of thousands of years, yet this is the first time seeing such a method... but..."

He did not speak the rest of his words, but the sorrowful look on his face expressed his current feelings.

Every falling Lightning Tribulation represented the death of an Insect Race creature that had hoped to Break through to the Soul Transformation Stage. Such a tragic sacrifice moved even him, a Mahayana Stage Cultivator.

He looked at Su Mo, only to see Su Mo's face was calm, as if he didn't care at all.

Su Mo wasn't completely indifferent; his expression was calm, but his heart was full of questions.

The power of this Lightning Tribulation... why has it become weaker?!

There were no Mahayana Stage creatures among the Blood Beasts; the strongest were only at the Body Integration Stage, and the Lightning Tribulation had correspondingly increased to the Body Integration Stage level.

But Su Mo keenly noticed that the power of this Lightning Tribulation was far below that of a normal Body Integration Stage Heavenly Tribulation; it had been weakened by at least thirty percent!

Could it be... that within the scope of the Immortal Burial Battlefield, the power of the Lightning Tribulation is weakened?

Su Mo looked up and asked Heavenly Valley:

"Senior, do you know why the power of this Lightning Tribulation is weakened? Have any Cultivators attempted to undergo Lightning Tribulation here before?"

Heavenly Valley was startled by the question and looked up at the Lightning Tribulation in the sky.

Only then did he realize that the power of the Lightning Tribulation was indeed much weaker than a normal Body Integration Stage Lightning Tribulation.

"Strange..."

Heavenly Valley frowned deeply:

"This... this old man does not know. I have also never heard of a Cultivator Undergoing Tribulation in the Immortal Burial Battlefield."

The Cultivator's Lightning Tribulation is the authority of the Heavenly Dao. If the Immortal Burial Battlefield can weaken the Lightning Tribulation, wouldn't it also be able to affect the Heavenly Dao!

This discovery made Su Mo involuntarily frown.

A moment later, tens of thousands of Insect Race creatures vanished, and the Blood Beast Tide was also nowhere to be seen, leaving only scorched earth behind.

Even though the power of the Lightning Tribulation was greatly reduced, such a massive number of Lightning Tribulations descending simultaneously was still more than the Blood Beasts could endure.

Heavenly Valley looked at the ravaged battlefield and couldn't help but praise:

"Young friend, this move of yours was truly brilliant. Without you, the casualties among these Cultivators would likely have been much heavier."

All the Cultivators below showed joy. With the Blood Beast Tide completely wiped out, they could finally rest.

"Young friend, having achieved such a great merit, we should hold a Celebration Banquet."

Heavenly Valley said this, pulling Su Mo, and was about to fly toward Demon Suppressing City.

However, heaven did not grant their wishes.

Just then, several heart-pounding auras rose from the depths of the Immortal Burial Battlefield.

Ten colossal figures appeared in everyone's sight. Every step they took caused the ground to tremble.

"Th-those are Mahayana Stage Blood Beasts!!"

All the Cultivators looked horrified, and their recently relaxed mood instantly plummeted to the bottom.

These ten Blood Beasts were varied in form: some were shaped like Giant Apes, covered in blood-colored Bone Armor; others resembled Centipedes, whose thousand legs cracked the earth as they moved... but they all shared one characteristic: they exuded suffocating Mahayana Stage pressure!

"Ten Mahayana Stage Blood Beasts. The Blood Prison Sacred Land has truly invested heavily..."

As Heavenly Valley's voice fell, several figures quietly appeared beside him.

These Cultivators were all Mahayana Stage, and there were exactly ten of them, not one more, not one less.

"It's been a long time. I didn't expect us to be fighting side by side again this time."

An old Cultivator dressed in a Green Robe and holding a Wooden Staff had a flash of reminiscence in his eyes and sighed emotionally:

"The last time I fought alongside you, Old Bone, was the time before this one."

Heavenly Valley laughed heartily:

"Azure Nether Sword Venerable, it seems it's not yet time for us Old Bones to make our curtain call!"

The ten Mahayana Cultivators exchanged smiles. They were all veteran powerhouses whose Lifespans were nearing their end, and they had long since disregarded life and death.

Azure Nether Sword Venerable looked at Su Mo, a look of appreciation in his eyes:

"This young friend must be the Cultivator who just dealt with the Blood Beast Tide? Heroes truly emerge from the young."

Su Mo cupped his hands in greeting:

"Junior greets all Seniors."

"No need for formalities."

A beautiful woman dressed in Palace Attire smiled faintly:

"Your move just now, using the Heavenly Tribulation to repel the enemy, truly opened the eyes of us old fellows."

Just as everyone was exchanging pleasantries, the ten Blood Beasts in the distance suddenly let out earth-shattering roars. It seemed they had received some command.
