Chapter 154 The Thunder Spirit Attacks!
“Uh… It’s not like that. They can’t be considered ferocious beasts. At most, they’re strange beasts,” Dong Mi scratched his head.
Meanwhile, Huang Chaoyu stopped. She had wanted to show off the strange things she had read in the books in front of the other disciples, but to think her junior brother had some at home?
“If we just talk about the origin of these creatures, they seem to be… the remnants of the spiritual energy from the heavenly lightning of someone’s transcending tribulation. Some of the heavenly lightning during the transcending tribulation contains relatively pure energy, which is how these thunder spirits came about. If they absorbed more spiritual energy, they could even evolve a mind of their own. To be honest, I didn’t know about all this before. It’s just someone from my family told me when they came last time…”
“But if they have truly evolved a human-like mind of their own, wouldn’t it be extremely cruel to imprison them?” Someone asked. Indeed, although they weren’t human, if they could evolve a human-like mind of themselves and could cultivate, wouldn’t it be equivalent to directly imprisoning a person if they imprisoned these thunder spirits?!
“That’s not true. Everyone, just think about it. If they can directly possess a human’s mind, how could we possibly still keep them at home?” Dong Mi smiled. Although it sounded a little strange, it was the truth. Spirit beasts that possessed a certain level of intelligence would definitely not be caught and imprisoned.
After everyone had a general understanding of the situation, they stopped chatting. This was because the pressure in the air was becoming increasingly intense. To their surprise, Jiang Yiming did not make a move. Instead, he placed his hands behind his back and watched as the thunder spirit slowly took shape.
“Since you are a spirit body that contains a lot of spiritual energy between Heaven and Earth, I will not interrupt you,” As soon as he finished saying this, two bolts of lightning shot out from the black clouds and headed straight for his body!
Jiang Yiming didn’t panic. He simply formed a barrier before himself and directly dissolved the lightning power. Vaguely, he even had the intention of using it for his own use!
This was a skill that Jiang Yiming had gradually comprehended after comprehending the mysterious cultivation technique that he had brought back from the Fenghuo Auction. It was somewhat similar to the Bone-devouring Sword that Sima Zhen had previously used, being also a method that directly absorbed the opponent’s strength.
However, Sima Zhen’s sword could be considered to be a completely demonic item. If one was struck by the blade of his sword, one’s life force would be directly sucked dry!
Jiang Yiming, on the other hand, naturally did not fancy such a demonic item. He had never needed such unorthodox methods to improve himself!
After the mysterious cultivation technique had turned into a spirit body in the Lingyun Sect, it had first extracted some of the spiritual energy from the crowd before eventually being digested and devoured by Jiang Yiming. After completing his task, Jiang Yiming realized that he seemed to be able to extract energy from the opponent’s martial skills during battle and use it for his own use!
Therefore, when the lightning struck him just now, he didn’t hesitate at all to dissolve it with spiritual energy and absorb the energy into his body!
However, Jiang Yiming’s actions seemed to have angered the thunder spirit!
This space had been filled with a terrifying murderous aura, to begin with, but now, the roars of the thunder spirit had filled the entire space!
Just as Dong Mi had said, the thunder spirit could be considered a type of ferocious beast. The enemy in the secret realm was naturally nothing easy to deal with. Jiang Yiming slowly circulated the cultivation technique in his body and converted the similarly wild aura into his own spiritual energy. By now, the thunder spirit had already transformed into a being with a human face and two hands. It slowly opened its mouth, and the extremely pure power of rolling thunder was unleashed that directly smashed towards Jiang Yiming! “That fellow is definitely no easy opponent. Just look at the wild thunder that it spewed out from its mouth! Master has something to deal with again!”
The disciples below were all focused. After the 20th floor, their Master would at most need to spend a little more time. If he wanted to truly have an enemy that was on par with him, then he would have to advance many more levels.
Feeling the energy within the surging lightning in front of him that was so pure and so powerful, Jiang Yiming thought to himself, should he just try out his new cultivation technique? It was a good chance to see what use the Quasi-exchange Technique that he had obtained from integration actually has! All the disciples were waiting to see how their Master planned to deal with it! However, Jiang Yiming’s actions exceeded everyone’s expectations!
He simply stood unmoving in front of the thunder spirit, his feet deep in the ground.
“Is Master crazy? It can’t be that Master intends on using his physical body to withstand the violent power of the lightning, right?!” “No! It’s impossible! This… This is definitely not a power that an ordinary person can withstand.”
Even Dong Mi, who had seen his Master in his strongest state, was stunned. They naturally knew that not only did their Master have high cultivation, but he also possessed an extremely powerful physical body! However, exposing his body to the most powerful energy was tantamount to courting death!
“Ah!”
Just as everyone was thinking about it, Jiang Yiming was already bathed in the light pillar!
Although the thunder spirit could not create a force as powerful as the transcending tribulations’ heavenly lightning, its power could still be considered very impressive!
“Master… Master doesn’t seem to have any intention of dodging. What… did Master comprehend this time?”
The disciples looked at Jiang Yiming, who was surrounded by lightning. It was a given they were a little surprised because their Master’s figure remained unchanged.
Moreover, it seemed that their Master wasn’t feeling any discomfort at all. Instead, his aura became stronger!
“That’s not right! Master, Master seems to be devouring the energy of the thunder spirit!”
Gu Lingfei could already feel that the thunder spirit, which had been aggressive just a moment ago, had actually fallen silent at this moment.
There seemed to be a hint of puzzlement in its eyes, which were formed from lightning.
Jiang Yiming looked at the lightning energy surrounding his hand and with a casual wave, returned all the energy that he had just absorbed back to the opponent!
The thunder spirit could already sense that something was wrong. Why was it so that this person before it could return its attack back to it?!
Jiang Yiming was actually overjoyed. After all, he had finally understood how this cultivation technique worked!
He had given the opponent plenty enough opportunities. Since it couldn’t grasp them well, don’t blame him for making a move.
Jiang Yiming’s figure once again soared. Facing such an enemy, he only needed to use the Chaos Celestial Technique!
