Cultivation: I have an omnipotent land

Chapter 59 Heavenly Thunder Slays Evil

"How is this possible?" Ling Tianyu's face turned pale, and he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

However, he completely ignored the backlash injury at this moment, instead staring intently at the blood-red coffin, his eyes revealing intense fear and worry.

Just when everyone thought the blood-red coffin was about to be destroyed, it suddenly trembled violently and erupted with blood-red energy ten times stronger than before. Amidst the terrified screams of the ghost doll, it blasted the monster's skeleton away.

The blood-red coffin hovered in the air, then it released a stream of blood-red energy, which enveloped Ling Tianyu below and flew towards the edge of the formation.

Those lit, incomplete array runes only lasted for a moment before being breached and released.

"A great opportunity!" Upon seeing the crack in the magic array torn open by the blood-red coffin, Zhong Xing was overjoyed and had already grasped a barrier-breaking talisman in his fingertips.

As long as you follow behind, you can escape immediately.

But at that moment, a black knife full of murderous intent suddenly pierced his chest without warning.

"This is indeed a good opportunity. The scions of noble families are indeed powerful, and they have so many good treasures." Shen Tu Ren appeared behind him. After discovering the barrier-breaking talisman in the other party's hand, he almost did not hesitate and launched a sneak attack on this comrade-in-arms.

He snatched the barrier-breaking talisman from his opponent's hand, and with a flick of his black blade, Zhong Xing exploded into a bloody mist, leaving only the storage bag in Shen Tu Ren's hands.

"Fellow junior brothers and sisters, I'll be taking my leave now." Shen Tu Ren laughed heartily as he rushed toward the crack in the formation and threw out the barrier-breaking talisman.

The crack in the array that was about to heal quickly was torn open again, allowing Shen Tu Ren to pass through safely.

All of this happened so suddenly that by the time the others came to their senses, only Xiao Ming, Yan Yuxue, Wu Yun, and Wang Debao remained on the scene.

"This guy is truly decisive and ruthless," Xiao Ming thought to himself. He knew he would never have been able to maximize profits so decisively and ruthlessly in such a short time.

Meanwhile, the evil doll reappeared, and the monster skeletons on the ground began to reassemble under its power.

"Senior brothers, the situation is already very clear. This evil spirit is already injured. If we don't take this opportunity to kill it in one fell swoop, then we will be the ones who die." Yan Yuxue activated her spiritual power, and a small red flag and a small jade-white sword spun around it.

"If you still have other methods, don't hide them."

Xiao Ming understood the critical situation and said, "Senior Brother Wu, Junior Sister Yan, Junior Brother Wang, I have another high-level lightning technique, but I'm not very skilled at using it and need some time. If you can hold them off for a while, perhaps we can annihilate this evil spirit in one fell swoop."

"High-level lightning magic?" Wu Yun looked at Xiao Ming in disbelief.

It should be noted that even for ordinary Qi Refining cultivators, mastering a single high-level Five Elements technique is quite difficult, let alone the even rarer Thunder Technique.

His Wu family was a family with a long history, and he himself was quite talented. However, after many years of cultivation, he had only mastered a mid-level lightning technique.

"Can you really do it?"

"I am fairly confident," Xiao Ming nodded.

"I believe in Senior Brother Xiao." Yan Yuxue activated her spiritual power, and the picture on the Crimson Fire Banner immediately came to life. One by one, firebirds about a foot long emerged and flew towards the evil ghost child.

"In that case, junior brother, go ahead and do it. I will risk my life to protect you." Wu Yun brandished his Thunderfire Spear, his body crackling with lightning, and went straight to meet him.

"Senior brother, your magic weapon is broken. I'll protect you." Wang Debao moved closer to Xiao Ming and held up the earthen-yellow shield in front of him.

"Then I'll have to trouble you." Xiao Ming took out a small stack of talismans from his storage bag.

As he chanted the incantation, the talismans spontaneously combusted without wind, and their ashes drifted into the air.

The surrounding spiritual energy began to stir, gathering into a dark cloud in the sky, with flashes of lightning appearing from time to time, seemingly brewing terrifying energy.

"Such a terrifying display of power might truly be enough to annihilate this evil spirit in one fell swoop," Wu Yun muttered to himself, looking up at the sky.

He could see it, and the evil spirit could also sense it; its fear of the thunder had driven it mad.

It controlled the skeletal remains of a demon beast, charging madly towards Xiao Ming.

"Your opponent is me." Wu Yun stepped in front, his silver spear flashing with dazzling lightning, faintly coalescing into the shape of a dragon.

Thunder Magic - Thunder Dragon Roar!

Wu Yun thrust out his spear, which roared like a thunder dragon, colliding with the skeletal remains of the demon beast.

The power of lightning spread, and this lightning magic was not weak. You could see the look of pain on the face of the evil spirit. However, since the monster bones had blocked most of the lightning for it, it was still unable to damage its core.

Compared to that, the evil spirit was more afraid of the thunderous power gathering in the sky, which was too powerful.

With a sharp shriek from the evil spirit, the eerie sound wave energy spread out, and Wu Yun was immediately struck as if by a heavy blow, spitting out a mouthful of blood and flying backward.

The evil spirit ignored Wu Yun and continued to control the monster skeleton as it rushed towards Xiao Ming.

Yan Yuxue glanced at Xiao Ming, who was still chanting incantations, gritted her teeth, and then controlled the Crimson Fire Flag to fly out.

"Explode!"

A mid-grade magic artifact self-destructed, transforming into a giant firebird that swooped down on the monster's skeleton with a piercing cry.

"Senior Brother Xiao, are you not ready yet?" Wang Debao looked at the enormous creature charging towards him recklessly. Even with a spirit shield in front of him, he didn't feel safe at all.

Touching his sleeve, Wang Debao pulled out five high-level fireball talismans in one go.

Given the current situation, there's no time to worry about the financial loss.

The two talismans were thrown out, and in the air they turned into two huge fireballs, each three feet wide, which crashed down on the monster's skeleton.

Boom boom boom...

The violent explosion engulfed the monster's skeleton.

Although fire magic is not as effective as lightning magic, it is just as effective against evil spirits.

Under this fierce attack, the monster's skeleton could not withstand it and was blown to pieces once again.

"Did we succeed?" Wang Debao's face lit up with joy.

However, his smile quickly vanished. Amidst the flames of the explosion, a dark shadow rapidly extended, bypassing Wang Debao's shield and arriving behind Xiao Ming.

A giant baby head appeared, its gaping maw revealing sharp teeth, ready to bite off Xiao Ming's head.

"Senior Brother Xiao!"

"Junior Brother Xiao!"

The others' expressions changed drastically, but it was too late for them to do anything.

However, at that moment, Xiao Ming, who had been casting a spell with his eyes closed, suddenly turned around, opened his eyes, and laughed.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

An ancient mirror hovered over his chest, and a dazzling light shone from it, instantly imprisoning the evil spirits in mid-air.

Superior Magical Artifact: Divine Light Mirror!

The evil spirit was fooled. Xiao Ming hadn't been focusing his full magical power on casting spells at all. Although he did possess high-level lightning magic, he hadn't had time to learn it yet.

Even if he had learned it, he couldn't have created such a huge spectacle with his strength. The commotion in the sky was just the thunder energy gathered by a stack of lightning-attracting talismans.

"Prepare to die!" Xiao Ming pointed, and a beam of green light flew out from his sleeve.

The Azure Rainbow Sword pierced into the evil spirit's mouth, and the next moment, the gaping maw snapped shut, biting down on the Azure Rainbow Sword.

Click!

With a crisp sound, the cracks on the Azure Rainbow Sword continued to spread, shattering into several pieces.

It's just a low-grade magic artifact; how could it possibly harm this evil spirit of unknown strength?

However, it failed to notice that on the back of the Azure Rainbow Sword, there was a talisman that was now flashing with lightning.

This is a high-level lightning magic talisman—the Heavenly Thunder Talisman.

The power of this Heavenly Thunder Talisman is comparable to a full-force strike from a peak Qi Refining cultivator, and it has a strong restraining effect on evil spirits.

At this moment, dazzling lightning erupted from the evil spirit's mouth, and the supremely yang and powerful lightning obliterated all filth and misfortune.

Snapped!

A small black stone fell from the sky.

"What is this?" Xiao Ming unleashed a bolt of lightning from his hand, confirming that there was no real threat.

He then picked it up and examined it in his hand.

It's like a piece of black crystal, and it feels slightly cool to the touch.

"This should be a Soul Crystal." Wang Debao took the black crystal from Xiao Ming's hand.

"Only some powerful ghosts can nurture soul crystals within their bodies. These are top-grade materials for making flying needle magic weapons. If a little bit of these crystals is added to an ordinary flying needle magic weapon, it can become invisible and kill people without leaving a trace."

Wang Debao rubbed his hands together, wishing he could possess the soul crystal, but with the three of them watching, he could only dream about it.

"Brother Xiao, since you killed this evil spirit, the soul crystal is naturally yours."

Xiao Ming put the soul crystal into his storage bag, then said to the three of them, "This place is not safe to stay any longer. Let's leave quickly."
