A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 591: Chapter 477: Battle Against a Golden Core Cultivator (Part 2)

The Dao Pattern of Five Elements inside the dantian shone brightly.

The four types of spiritual qi—Metal, Wood, Water, and Earth—instantly gathered, combining and blending in an extremely intricate sequence. A terrifying Golden Core level fluctuation brewed within, suddenly accompanied by the sound of crashing waves and thunderous roars.

Five Elements Grand Array Fourfold Transformation: Thunder Sea Fury!

The Gui Water Divine Thunder fused and condensed, with an eerie blue glow emerging from the pure black. It transformed into tidal waves as high as several dozen zhang, crashing down like a small mountain, exuding a terrifying aura of tearing and destruction. With a thunderous boom, it crushed the Fire Dragon and Vermilion Bird flat!

Where the thunderous waves passed, the Fire Dragon and Vermilion Bird struggled with all their might, but the terrifying fluctuations washed over them round after round. After a moment of stalemate, the two Golden Flame Fire Beasts let out a mournful cry and were torn to pieces by the Thunder Sea Fury!

The Dragon Sparrow Fire Ring let out a crack, producing a large crack.

The now smaller thunderous wave continued forward, fiercely striking at Master Yaoming. However, Master Yaoming had already snapped out of his shock, taking out a radiant red banner. As the banner unfurled, a sky full of fire clouds surged, clashing violently with the thunderous waves. Firelight and thunder light illuminated half of the night sky.

Finally, after a brief standoff, the overlapping fire clouds completely wore down the thunderous waves.

Master Yaoming looked at Lu Qian with completely changed eyes. This was not some protective trump card given to Lu Qian by a Golden Core Master; it was an attack initiated by Lu Qian himself!

The Threefold Transformation of the Five Elements Grand Array could rival the full-force strike of a Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator; the Fourfold Transformation matched the attack strength of a Mid-Stage Golden Core Master.

And with the comprehensive enhancement of Lu Qian’s Dao Pattern and Array Dao cultivation, the power of this Thunder Sea Fury had already approached the strength of a Late-Stage Golden Core!

Therefore, it could suppress Master Yaoming’s full-force Dragon Sparrow Fire Ring and forced him to use a defensive treasure to block it, ultimately wearing it down due to lack of follow-up strength.

”The last time I fought seriously was several years ago,” Lu Qian said with a light smile. ”It’s true, it’s about time to test how much I’ve learned recently.”

The last time he went all out was during a spar with Guh Niqiang, who had come back to visit. Other times, he hadn’t had the opportunity to make a move.

Xiao Tianci nodded in shock, as if the terrifying thunderous waves were still surging before his eyes.

The Furious Sea Urgent Thunder Palm that Lu Qian had pieced together before actually drew some inspiration from the Thunder Sea Fury, so now using the genuine Fourfold Transformation was much more relaxed.

At this moment, the thirty Spirit Crystals in Lu Qian’s arms had already burned out, and the light in the Array Realm dimmed.

Only then did Xiao Tianci realize that, without a Spirit Vein here, to activate an array of this level, relying on Lu Qian’s own spiritual power was definitely insufficient, and he had to draw on Spirit Stone Spirit Crystal as a power supply.

Just one move consumed thirty Spirit Crystals. He couldn’t help but say urgently, ”Sect Leader, the consumption is too great. I still have a few Spirit Crystals here, please, take them.”

Lu Qian laughed aloud, ”Tianci, our Yunshan Sect lacks many things, but Spirit Stones are not one of them!”

As he spoke, he pressed several dozen more Spirit Crystals onto the Array Map. The Array Map trembled violently and started to show tiny cracks.

It seemed that this Array Map Array Base, which had accompanied him for a long time, couldn’t hold up for much longer.

No matter, his divine sense could still be used for one more Fourfold Transformation at full power, maximizing its value.

The Qian-Spirit Pill, Fang Hui’s painstaking masterpiece, had truly healed the overlapping and tangled injuries on Lu Qian’s divine soul.

After taking the medicine for a year, all the redundant and stagnant areas disappeared, the divine soul was completely connected, and the tides of divine sense circulated without any delay!

What had long been anticipated, the Power of Consciousness Collection finally returned to normal, and the strength of divine sense smoothly advanced to the Golden Core tier!

Following another twelve years of hard cultivation, under the backing of the Third-Level High-Level Spiritual Vein, ample spirit pills and spiritual medicines, the profound ”Supreme Primordial Spirit Sea-Suppressing Divine Skill”, and the miraculous Pure Glazed Body enhancing him, Lu Qian smoothly advanced to Late-Stage Foundation Establishment. His power of divine sense increased again, slightly stronger than that of an ordinary Early Stage of Golden Core!

With such a formidable divine sense, combined with even deeper Array Dao cultivation, Lu Qian could now initiate the Fourfold Transformation twice.

At this pace of cultivation, in seventeen or eighteen more years, Lu Qian would reach Foundation Establishment Perfection and await the descent of the Celestial Tribulation!

Seeing the five-colored radiance soaring into the sky once more, Master Yaoming was greatly shaken and couldn’t help but show a solemn expression.

Only now did he realize that Lu Qian wasn’t recklessly wandering alone; he possessed the power of self-preservation.

There was actually such a talent in the world, able to contend with a Golden Core while only at Late-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivation!

If this person successfully advanced to the Golden Core, the ten counties of the northwest would certainly be in turmoil.

There’s still a little time. In the next move, he must kill Lu Qian here!

His gaze sharpened, the Golden Core inside his dantian radiated brightly, and the Crimson Cloud Fire Banner in his hand shook out ten thousand rays of light.

At that moment, an explosive high temperature swept over, piercing the Array Realm of the Five Elements Grand Array. Lu Qian and Xiao Tianci only felt their bodies burning hot, and even their hair curled up.

Divine Power: Nanming Li Fire!

Amid layer upon layer of fire clouds, a three-foot-long Vermilion Bird leaped out. Then its form shuddered, transforming into a golden fireball.

This fireball, though only the size of a human head, emitted a dazzling light, twisting and exploding, with a tiny Vermilion Bird spiraling and soaring inside, cawing loudly. In an instant, the moonlight and stars dimmed.

In terms of the explosive power contained within this fire, it even surpassed Guh Niqiang’s Golden Crow Cyan Flame!

Even Master Yaoming himself cautiously controlled this ball of fire, as if walking on thin ice.

The moment he sensed Nanming Li Fire, Lu Qian clearly knew that even with the Fourfold Transformation, blocking this trump card divine technique head-on would be too difficult.
