CHAPTER 1199: CHAPTER 1197: STRIKING GOOD LUCK (5TH UPDATE)

Yes!

The boats were moving.

Not just the boat where Xuu Xiao was, but the other seven boats as well, they were all moving.

Slowly.

Heading in one direction, right towards that statue.

"It seems the greatest treasure within Lei Ling Ruins is that statue." Su Chen murmured to himself.

Time passed by second by second.

On the eight boats, all the martial cultivators had restored to their peak state, and the eight boats maintained the same speed, swaying, getting closer and closer to the amethyst-colored statue.

Moreover, along the way, the eight small boats passed through several areas shrouded in thunderstorms, yet, it seemed, these boats had a special function; standing on them, they were unscathed by those thunderstorms.

A day later.

They arrived!!!

Amidst everyone’s anticipation, the eight boats finally arrived in front of the gigantic statue.

Seeing it up close, how could one not be overwhelmed?

The entire statue, over one thousand meters tall, lifelike, entirely amethyst-colored, emanating a mysterious purple divine charm, the statue gave off an extremely heavy aura, yet filled with an endless vitality.

In front of the gigantic statue, there happened to be eight positions, corresponding to the eight small boats.

The eight small boats were precisely attracted to those eight locations and halted.

Everyone looked up, staring at that colossal, purple mountain-like statue.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "Look! There’s a cloud ladder on that statue!"

Yes!

A cloud ladder.

Indeed, it was a cloud ladder.

In front of the amethyst-colored statue, there existed a faintly discernible cloud ladder, extending straight to the top of the statue.

Moreover, upon closer inspection, one would find that the cloud ladder was divided into seven segments.

A platform after each segment.

On each platform, there was a meditation cushion, above which floated a cluster of purple thunder energy sphere.

Just as everyone was captivated by the cloud ladder and the energy spheres.

A vision emerged.

Appearing beside the statue, on the calm purple sea surface, there was a monument slowly rising from beneath the sea.

The monument was entirely purple-black, appeared to bear the marks of ages, seemingly heavily corroded by seawater.

"There are words on the monument!"

Someone unknown shouted.

Everyone’s eyes brightened, staring at that monument.

"I am Supreme Thunder Spirit, traversing the world at the end of the Primordial Era! Throughout my life of over thirty-six million years, I have never tasted defeat! I traversed the end of the Primordial Era, dominated the Eight Desolations, and conquered the Contrary Thunder Great Thousand! I once traveled the Grand Cosmos World for ten thousand years, discovering over a hundred kinds of Thunder Spirits!"

"Among them, seven kinds entered my eyes! The first, Earthpulse Thunder Spirit. The second, Ziyou Thunder Spirit. The third, Tianduan Thunder Spirit. The fourth, Jiugui Thunder Spirit. The fifth, Scarlet Abyss Thunder Spirit. The sixth, Divine Empyrean Thunder Spirit. The seventh, Chaotic Divine Thunder."

"Throughout my life, I attempted to refine these seven kinds of Thunder Spirits. Ultimately, I successfully refined six of them, with the Chaotic Divine Thunder remaining unrefined. A regret of mine."

"Before I saw through eternity, I left behind these seven Thunder Spirits, hoping that a fated one in the future may find them."

"Remember one. Do not be greedy. After me, one can only attempt to refine one Thunder Spirit. Once any Thunder Spirit is chosen, bow before my statue with sincerity, and you shall become my disciple. Lock your thoughts on any one of the seven Thunder Spirits, and the remaining six will disappear, leaving only the chosen Thunder Spirit before the statue’s cloud ladder. Ascend the cloud ladder to obtain the Thunder Spirit."

"Remember two. The seven levels of the cloud ladder correspond to the seven Thunder Spirits. The higher the level, the stronger the Thunder Spirit. The more difficult to obtain. Wish my disciples gauge their strength and not risk their lives."

"Remember three. Without absolute certainty, do not attempt the seventh Chaotic Divine Thunder, as this Thunder Spirit, unrefined by me, bears none of my markings, being a masterless Thunder Spirit, dangerous! Extremely dangerous!!"

......

As the inscriptions on the monument rippled out, each character, like starlight, flickered and engraved upon the sea surface, leaving everyone in awe.

In the end, these shimmering characters disappeared.

But in everyone’s hearts, a great shock reverberated!!!

Thinking this Lei Ling Ruins was merely a relic left by a great power from ancient times.

But now, it doesn’t seem so.

Far from it.

The origins of Lei Ling Ruins are unimaginably vast.

Not merely one Thunder Spirit, but an entire seven.

And this Supreme Thunder Spirit, even claimed the title of Supreme, knowing, as recorded in ancient tomes, in Minor Thousand Worlds, only one martial cultivator could bear the title of Supreme per era!!!

And Supreme Thunder Spirit hails from the Primordial Era.

In other words, this Supreme Thunder Spirit dominated the entire Primordial Era.

This... this is too terrifying.

The Primordial Era was the most chaotic era, a time where powerhouses were as common as dogs, great powers like clouds.

Supreme Thunder Spirit crushed everything? Reached the pinnacle?

Even traveled the Grand Cosmos World?

Moreover, Supreme Thunder Spirit didn’t die but broke through eternity, though no one knows what breaking through eternity means, these four words unequivocally signify that Supreme Thunder Spirit is definitely not dead, but went elsewhere.

Too frightening.

And these seven Thunder Spirits left behind are not ordinary Thunder Spirits, but the strongest seven chosen from over a hundred Thunder Spirits.

Even among the seven, the Earthpulse Thunder Spirit placed on the first level of the cloud ladder seems to be... highly ranked Thunder Spirits, right?

Gulp.

Gulp.

Gulp.

......

At this moment, everyone was overwhelmed with joy and confusion.

Everyone began swallowing their saliva in large gulps.

They struck it lucky.

No wonder these Lei Ling Ruins were so dangerous, upon entry, out of a hundred thousand, over ninety-nine thousand had perished, it’s because the Lei Ling Ruins are so terrifying!!!

They are the lucky ones, the true lucky ones.

It’s known, when news of Lei Ling Ruins spread, although it attracted the attention of many powers, even many first-order powers sent people over.

Yet, in reality, none went all out, for while Thunder Spirits are good, they are hard to obtain; moreover, they were thought to be just low-level Thunder Spirits, not enough to be considered earth-shattering in value.

But in truth? The lowest Earthpulse Thunder Spirit among the seven Thunder Spirits is of an advanced rank! It’s a Thunder Spirit that’s hard to find even a second on the entire Primordial Continent!

Had it been known earlier, the entirety of War Ancient Sky, all first-order powers would have gone all out, right? Even the supreme powerhouses of Great Luo Heaven and Traceless Heaven would have gone all out, right?

Unfortunately, there’s no if.

Even Yu Tianyan, who is well-versed and of peerless talent, at this moment had slightly reddened eyes, fiercely staring at those elusive seven Thunder Spirits, longing to the extreme.

As long as they obtain one Thunder Spirit and refine it, they could not say invincible, but they would absolutely dominate the entire younger generation of War Ancient Sky, with no challenge.

"Xuu Ping, you try first." At the next moment, Xuu Xiao broke the silence and said.

Although greed and desire reached an indescribable level.

But no one dared to act rashly.

Xuu Xiao having his guard try first, no one opposed, because everyone knew, Xuu Xiao wanted his guard to be the test subject, to give it a try first.

Judging by Supreme Thunder Spirit’s methods, effortlessly obtaining the Thunder Spirit is certainly impossible.

No one knows how difficult it truly is, someone must try first to find out.
