It was dark and cold when the echoes came.
“Little Fellow Practitioner, you took two Divine Thunders of my sect and left directly. It’s not suitable, right?”
As soon as Ban Qian came back to his senses, he heard the old voice and was bewildered.
Two Divine Thunders?
Little Fellow Practitioner?
Who was he talking about?
Su Qingshui?!
He suddenly realized and then turned to see his junior sister apprentice “Su Qingshui” and Ling San who were looking around solemnly. Soon after, he saw “Su Qingshui” slightly raise her eyebrows, revealing a familiar smile that he had seen many times in Shengxian Mountain.
“Senior, are you Ancestor Lei?”
Ban Qian widened his eyes and swallowed his saliva. Various scenes of getting along with “Su Qingshui” in Fenglei Holy Sect flashed back in his mind, and he was almost crying.
Su Jiuzhou!
It was not enough that you wanted to abduct me, but even my sect’s two great Divine Thunders!
At this moment, Ban Qian was so grieved and indignant that he subconsciously ignored the name of Ancestor Lei.
“Hahaha… Your bone age is less than a hundred years. You are worthy of being the leading prodigy of this era.”
In the darkness, a phantom floated slowly, and Su Li couldn’t help but stare.
“A residual soul?”
“Ha-ha, if I am not a residual soul, how can you speak in front of me with your body intact?”
As the phantom floated closer, Su Li saw its face, and suddenly her pupils shrank. She blurted out, “Cang Lei?”
Ancestor Lei was shocked when he heard the words, and then relaxed again, “It seems that you have seen my younger brother. Where is he?”
Su Li was silent for a moment and said, “In the Black Stone Forest of Jiuzhou Region. His residual soul has dissipated. I take the Cang Lei inheritance, and I haven’t found a suitable heir.”
“I see.”
Ancestor Lei sighed, “Forget it, I am also already a crippled body. In the forgotten era, it doesn’t make any sense to care about the rivalries. It’s a pity that I didn’t see him.”
Ancestor Lei said and averted his eyes on Ling Li.
Suddenly, Ling Li’s complexion slightly changed, as if his whole body was seen through and he couldn’t hide any secrets.
“You are…!”
The light in Ancestor Lei’s eyes faded. He immediately lost his composure. He looked at Ling Li in amazement and muttered, “So, the rumors are true. Ha-ha… Ling Qingshui, you are really selfish.”
Ling Li was shocked and opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to ask.
“You know Ling Qingshui.”
Light flashed through Su Li’s eyes. She turned her head to glance at the bewildered Ban Qian and continued, “Then… Senior, you should know a lot about Bai Mo.”
“Bai Mo, what a nostalgic name!”
Ancestor Lei’s gaze returned onto Su Li, “However, what is even more surprising is that you, at such a young age, actually knew what happened in that era. Is this the reason you stole the Divine Thunders of my sect?”
“Yes.”
Su Li unlocked the All Spirits Tactics, confessing, “My name…is Su Jiuzhou. If you have been concerning Fenglei Holy Sect, you are supposed to know me.”
“Ni Sect… I have indeed heard of it.”
Ancestor Lei nodded and waved his hand to set up a table of drinks, “Sit down. It seems that we can talk about it. I thought that Ni Sect was just a flash in the pan. But after seeing you, I suddenly have a little interest.”
Su Li sat across from Ancestor Lei. Ling Li hesitated and sat beside her.
Ban Qian was still standing there like a sculpture.
“You want to use Divine Thunder of the Five Elements to deal with Bai Mo. I’ve thought about that, too.”
Ancestor Lei sighed, “Even I have gathered all the Divine Thunders of the Five Elements, but…I am still no match for Bai Mo who had the natural law. Divine Thunder of the Five Elements is still a bit weaker than Destroy Thunder.”
Su Li was a little surprised.
It couldn’t help?
“But…”
Ancestor Lei stared at Su Li, “After I died, my residual soul hid in this unowned space, thinking about the failure of that year day after day, and there is an idea finally. Have you ever heard of Thunder of Lustration?”
Su Li frowned and shook her head.
Ling Li’s eyes flashed with memories. He suddenly said, “Senior, are you talking about the integration of the Five Elements?”
Ancestor Lei smiled and nodded, looking at Ling Li. The kindness of the elder appeared in his eyes. “It seems that you have inherited his memory. The descendant of immortal is really different. The so-called Thunder of Lustration is a thunder method that only immortals can master.”
Regarding Ling Qingshui, Ancestor Lei seemed unwilling to say more. He quickly turned back to the original topic and explained to Su Li, “I noticed that your physical body is the limit of human beings, so I told you Thunder of Lustration. Otherwise, it is self-destructive for Human Clan to integrate the Divine Thunder.
The so-called Thunder of Lustration is, as the little boy said, the perfect integration of the five Divine Thunder of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. Only in this way can the power be greatly increased, surpassing the natural law in this circle.”
Su Li frowned, “Then, how to integrate them?”
“There is a treasure in Ciyun Building called the Perfection Wheel. This treasure can transform the Five Elements. If you can get the right to control it, maybe you can integrate them.”
When Ancestor Lei said this, his tone became cautious, “But…this method is only my assumption, and whether they can be integrated is still a variable. If it fails…”
Su Li’s pupils shrank. The destructive power of the Five Elements rejecting each other was too strong. She was afraid that even the Great Emperor could not hold it.
She took a deep breath and took out the seed of Divine Thunder of Earth, “Senior, is there a way to activate this seed?”
“You really want to try?”
Ancestor Lei looked at Su Li in surprise and then smiled again, “Yes, if I were at your age, I would never be afraid to try. There are many ways to activate Thunder Seed of Earth, but many of them need a long time. I see the three Divine Thunder in your body are distinctively separated. You won’t keep them long, right?”
Su Li nodded slightly, “Senior, I admire your sharp eyes. With only a few months left, I have no time to waste.”
Ling Li was so shocked that he trembled the cup in his hand.
There were not two but three kinds of Divine Thunder in Su Jiuzhou’s body.
With this kind of pain and suffering, she had…never revealed it at all?
“But you still lack the Divine Thunder of Wood.”
Ancestor Lei looked at the seed of Divine Thunder in his hand and couldn’t help frowning. This seed was nearly lifeless and it was really trouble.
“Old Ancestor…Su Jiuzhou, she doesn’t lack the Divine Thunder of Wood!”
Ban Qian finally came to his sense and opened his mouth,
“Oh?”
Ancestor Lei was surprised, “That means as soon as you activate this seed of Divine Thunder, you gather all the Divine Thunders of the Five Elements and can go to Ciyun Building to try it out.”
Su Li nodded, “I will not do uncertain things. The original plan was to find Old Ancestor Tianxing to get the activation method. Since I meet you, it is obviously better.”
“Ha-ha… Bai Su? That old guy likes to collect secrets, and he really knows the method of activating the seed of Divine Thunder. But his method does not suitable for you.”
Ancestor Lei looked at Su Li. His eyes became gentle and close from the initial censure and indifference, as if he was instructing his own descendant, “Fire produces earth. If you want to speed up the activation progress of Thunder Seed of Earth, you can put it into Thunder of Fire. I will teach you a thunder method, which can make the Thunder of Earth into thunder fire in three days, but also shorten its life span. It can only last a year. However, if you try the method of integration of the five elements, one year…is enough.”
Ancestor Lei said and clicked between his eyebrows and pulled out a piece of illusory text. The text fell onto his palm, and it became a jade slip in a flash.
“All the details are on the jade slip. You can try to figure it out repeatedly.”
“Thank you, Ancestor Lei.”
Su Li nodded and took it, and then with a thought, the inheritance jade slip from Cang Lei’s Cave floated out. “It returns to its original owner.”
“Cang Lei…”
Ancestor Lei’s calm eyes showed a sense of complexity. Then he lightly sighed, and threw the jade slip into Ban Qian’s arms, “Put his things in Fenglei Sect and wait for the predestined person. I won’t last long with such a dying body.”
Ban Qian caught it in a hurry, and then he respectfully responded, “As you wish, Old Ancestor. I will give this to Grand Elder Nan.”
“Ha-ha, you are also a good boy.”
Gazing Ban Qian warmly, Ancestor Lei suddenly transmitted the sound, “In this chaotic world, you don’t have to stick to the formality. For the Fate Palace was in-fighting, it is not the time to hesitate. If Su Jiuzhou really has Divine Thunder of Wood, you’d better follow her for a while. And your talent in wood circle shouldn’t go unrewarded. If you leave, I will explain to your master. Don’t worry.”
Ban Qian trembled slightly and suddenly got a strange and warm feeling. The words of Ancestor Lei were like a key that unlocked the shackles inside him, and suddenly, his heart was filled with power.
Su Li saw that Ancestor Lei was transmitting to Ban Qian, but she didn’t disturb him. She only fondled the jade slip in her hand and waited quietly.
When Ancestor Lei turned his eyes to her, Su Li hesitated and finally transmitted, “How much do you know about the Poisonous Substitute Insect?”
Ancestor Lei changed his expression, as if he saw the scene of the suffering people caused by Exorcism Battle. “At that time, Bai Mo infiltrated our practitioners with the Poisonous Substitute Insect. At first, we were not prepared and many of our companions were tricked to turn their coats, resulting in a centuries-long period of chaos where countless innocent practitioners died. In the past tens of thousands of years, Bai Mo’s infiltration ability should be even stronger.”
Su Li nodded and transmitted, “Xiang Hua was also poisoned by the Poisonous Substitute Insect.”
Ancestor Lei changed his gentle face. With an uncontrollable emotion, he forgot to transmit but blurted, “You said Hua…”
Ling Li and Ban Qian were confused by their obscure words.
Ban Qian did not have a delicate mind, so he stopped listening and his thoughts were all on Ling Li at the moment.
Ling San was obviously a fake name. Although the old ancestor’s attitude towards Ling San was abnormal, he could also notice that Ling San’s origin was definitely not worse than that of Su Jiuzhou. But Ling San actually stayed in their sect and served as an attendant of Su Jiuzhou for half a month. He was even said to be a “toy boy” and did not refute it.
“What is the relationship between him and Su Jiuzhou?”
While Ban Qian was wandering around, Ancestor Lei put on a long face, and his illusory body began to flicker.
“Bai Mo, how dare you harm my child!”
“Calm down, Ancestor Lei. Grand Elder Hua was still in his right senses. The poisonous insect didn’t hurt him so much. Do you have the method to prevent and control the Poisonous Substitute Insect?”
After Su Li’s comfort, Ancestor Lei calmed down quickly, “There is no invincible method in this world, and the Poisonous Substitute Insect is naturally flawed. I heard that only with the flesh and blood of virgin boys and girls can the refinement of the Poisonous Substitute Insect be successfully completed. It’s an evil thing, and the thunder method of Fenglei Sect is the most useful way to damage it.
However, with the fate skill of Fate Ancestor, the Poisonous Substitute Insect transformed into Poisonous Fate Substitute Insect. After its defect was hidden, the thunder method was difficult to work again. At that time, we spent hundreds of years trying to find ways to damage it. And then the Master of Qingshui Circle accidentally discovered that Tianxing Fate Skill was extremely harmful to Poisonous Fate Substitute Insect. So, he let Bai Su make a great deal of Tianxing Immortal Water to contain the attack of Poisonous Fate Substitute Insect.”
Light flashed through Su Li’s eyes. “Since there is Tianxing Immortal Water, why is there still Poisonous Fate Substitute Insect?”
“Tianxing Immortal Water is also transformed by fate skill, and its function is greatly related to pneuma fortune!”
Ancestor Lei wore a serious look, “Bai Mo must think of a way to weaken the whole Qingshui Circle’s pneuma fortune and force the pneuma fortune into himself. Under this shift, even with the blessing and protection of Tianxing Immortal Water, there will be people with little luck to be poisoned by it.”
“Weaken the pneuma fortune of a whole circle?”
Ling Li frowned, “Even if Bai Mo was infinitely capable, how could he weaken…”
Before Ling Li could end his remark, he suddenly paused.
