Chapter 514: Chapter 258: Sword Cliff Guard, The Heart of Void Thunder

Eternal Rest Immortal City.

The cultivator who managed to escape a thousand meters away from the Void Thunder Spirit Fruit was still not willing to give up. With a flick of his hand, a whip radiating with blue spirit light pierced through space and entered the thunder domain.

Like a dragon, the whip danced and the thunder exploded in response.

“There’s hope.”

A look of surprise filled the cultivator’s face. However, it lasted but an instant. In the thunder domain, the thunder suddenly intensified, directly obliterating the cultivator’s divine consciousness that was controlling the whip. His whole body trembled, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. The whip, which had lost its attachment to divine consciousness, was struck by a thunderbolt, shattered into several pieces, and fell.

Han Yi clearly saw that this whip was at least an Artifact Level, no wonder so many Monarch and Gold Core cultivators dared not pick the spirit fruit using their divine artifacts.

After the whip was shattered by the thunderbolt…

Another newly appeared Golden Core Peak cultivator fearlessly charged into the thunder domain. His robe emitted a spirit light that surged fiercely, unmistakably, surmounting the best artifacts to become a Half-step Spiritual Treasure.

The Golden Core cultivator who entered the thunder domain, braving the sky full of thunderbolts, crossed a thousand meters and picked a Void Thunder Spirit Fruit. As his heart surged with joy, he was about to reach for a second Void Thunder Spirit Fruit when suddenly the thunderbolts intensified, with one of them wide enough for three men striking down on the Golden Core cultivator, smashing him down directly.

The Golden Core cultivator who was spitting out blood crazily looked terrified. He did not dare to pick the second fruit and rapidly retreated. The spirit light on his body flickered, dimming and brightening intermittently. This Half-step Spiritual Treasure robe also seemed injured.

In his hand, he held a pitch-black spirit fruit. After escaping a thousand meters, he fled wildly.

In the field, several Golden Core cultivators, their eyes twinkling, left the battleground following him. Then, even a Nascent Soul Cultivator turned and chased after him.

That Void Thunder Spirit Fruit, including that Half-step Spiritual Treasure, obviously, had already aroused the covetous desire of the cultivators.

Afterward, more cultivators displayed various methods to enter the thunder domain and pick the Void Thunder Spirit Fruit.

However, with the previous cautions, these cultivators dared only to pick one, when they attempted the second one, the intensity of the thunder domain increased instantly, several folds.

Only Monarch cultivators dared to pick many at once. But, the threat and intensity of the thunder domain for them also increased. Even they didn’t dare to linger for long, collected the Spirit Fruit, and then exited the thunder domain.

There was one Monarch cultivator who, after exiting the thunder domain, wanted to enter again and pick some more. But the entire thunder domain suddenly went crazy, and the thunderbolts born out of the void seemed to possess the might of Spirit Transformation, scaring away the Monarch cultivator. He fled in horror, not daring to linger.

This Void Thunder Spirit Tree, this thunder domain, already had spiritual wisdom.

Han Yi took it seriously. This was the Fragmented Immortal World, a fragment of the ancient Immortal Realm. The spirit tree that gestated here didn’t know how many tens of thousands of years had passed, and developing spiritual wisdom was normal.

However.

The Monarch cultivator who fled the thunder domain did not just leave, but wandered around aiming to hunt other Golden Core cultivators.

However, those Golden Cores that were able to enter this place weren’t mediocre; many possessed the formidable power of Half-step Nascent Souls. In the end, they provoked a few mutual Half-step Nascent Soul cultivators, instigating an earth-shattering battle. Both sides were injured and fled away.

Changes were underway, and situations evolved rapidly.

Han Yi also saw Li Dongli enter the thunder domain. Amidst the turquoise sword light protecting his whole body, he barely blocked the falling thunderbolts. After he laboriously plucked a Void Thunder Spirit Fruit, he fled, leaving a trail of blood behind him. Three cultivators of the Late-stage Golden Core followed closely behind.

Han Yi didn’t act. Everyone has their Immortal Affinity. If he were to follow them, it would likely lead to misunderstandings.

After a full half-hour, watching the few dozen cultivators plucking spirit fruits in the thunder domain showed that no matter whether they were Golden Cores or Nascent Souls, most circumstances were similar.

He briefly summarized: when a cultivator enters the thunder domain, he would face two rounds of thunderstorm bombardment before picking the spirit fruit. After picking, if he directly exits, he would face the thunder again.

If he didn’t exit but continued picking, the number of thunderbolts would multiply and the power would be several folds more.

Furthermore, from the previous situation, the Void Thunder Spirit Fruit could not be stored in artifacts like the Qiankun Ring.

Having summarized the points, Han Yi became determined. He already had a plan, gently swayed, avoided the hunting areas of the Monarch cultivators, and headed towards the opposite side of the thunder domain. A moment later, choosing the right opportunity, he avoided the fights, covered a distance of several kilometers, and dived straight into the thunder domain.

The thunder flashed, striking down. Han Yi waved his hand gently, and Wind and Fire Shields emerged, condensing into a pitch-black shield. But not just one layer, three layers formed instantly, layer upon layer.

However.

This defense skill, transformed from Wind Wall Skill and Fire Shield Skill, was just at the stage of ‘Return to the Truth’, and had not reached the realm of ‘Breaking through the mortal and entering the holy’.

As the thunderbolt struck, it barely held up for a moment, and the three black shields instantly turned into disordered spirit energy, exploding and dispersing.

Han Yi was well prepared for this. He gently threw up the Demon-Slaying Inner Armor, which he had recently acquired, just in time for the falling thunderbolt to strike it. The inner armor trembled violently, flew upwards, and was promptly captured by Han Yi. The thunder surged, giving his arm a tingling sensation.

As the second thunderbolt was about to strike, Han Yi’s whole body shivered, and the Ancient God Visualization Method coursed vehemently through him, his body emitting a very faint golden light.

Although his body did not swell up, the strength of his physical body and the exuberance of his vital blood were shocking. Supporting the falling inner armor as a shield, he thrust it upwards. The falling thunderbolt struck him, causing his entire body to drop more than ten meters. However, he was now close to the Void Thunder Spirit Tree.
