Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal
Chapter 534 - 143: As Fast as a Nascent Soul!
Thunderbolt Wings is a magical treasure recorded in "Purple Sky Thunder Technique" that Zhou Xun cultivated.
This treasure possesses extraordinary power,
When used, a mere thought will cause Thunderbolt Wings to appear behind you. By injecting Thunder Spirit Power, you can travel a thousand miles in an instant.
It is a top-notch auxiliary treasure.
Besides that, this treasure is one of the rare treasures apart from Lifebound Magical Treasures that can be absorbed into the body, and it can grow with you.
It could almost be considered a second Lifebound Magical Treasure.
Unfortunately, the materials for refining this treasure are extremely rare, which is why it’s unknown in the Cultivation Realm.
However, Zhou Xun was incredibly fortunate. He found the primary material for this treasure in the Celestial Profound Secret Realm and started refining it.
With a thought, Zhou Xun summoned a small blue wing from his body, which hovered in front of him, its surface flickering with thunder arcs, filled with Spirit Charm, marking it as extraordinary at first glance.
Before this, Zhou Xun’s Thunderbolt Wings had undergone eight condensations, with only the final one remaining to achieve true Great Success.
"Since the beginning of refining, twenty-seven years have passed. Today is your day to take shape!"
Zhou Xun murmured, forming spells with his hands, beams of Spirit Light striking the Thunderbolt Wings in front of him,
The Thunderbolt Wings floated up, instantly expanding to a size of about ten feet, surrounded by flickering thunder arcs.
As Zhou Xun continued casting spells, the Thunder Light on the Thunderbolt Wings became increasingly dazzling, illuminating the entire Cultivation Room.
Seeing this, Zhou Xun was overjoyed, casting spells from his hands more frequently.
Suddenly——
A brilliant Thunder Light, accompanied by a resounding thunder, caused the Thunderbolt Wings to tremble violently as if trying to break free from Zhou Xun’s control, the entire wing radiating a powerful energy wave.
Immediately, Zhou Xun unhesitatingly enveloped the Thunderbolt Wings with his Divine Sense, continually washing and condensing it,
Sweat began to bead on Zhou Xun’s forehead, but a light of excitement shone in his eyes.
As the sacrificial refining progressed, Zhou Xun’s connection with the Thunderbolt Wings deepened, like an extension of his own arm.
At that moment,
"Screech!"
The Thunderbolt Wings let out a clear cry, then suddenly unfolded and began flapping, almost flying out of the Cultivation Room,
There was a flash of surprise in Zhou Xun’s eyes; he knew this was a sign of the Thunderbolt Wings nearing completion.
Murmuring under his breath and constantly changing spells with his hands, as he cast the final spell,
The Thunderbolt Wings suddenly fell silent, then transformed into a bolt of lightning and merged into his body.
"Nine rounds of sacrificial refining, twenty-seven years, and I’ve finally forged you!"
...
Floating above the Cave Mansion, Zhou Xun suspended in the air,
Suddenly, with a thought, two wings several feet long appeared on his back, flickering with extraordinary thunder arcs.
"Go!"
With Zhou Xun’s intent,
The Thunderbolt Wings gave a flap,
Zhou Xun’s whole being transformed into a bolt of lightning, appearing a thousand feet away, and each flap covered a thousand feet.
The speed was incomparable to before.
Suddenly, with a thought, Zhou Xun slapped his waist,
A flash of light transformed into a creature with a tiger’s head, a leopard’s body, and twin wings on its back.
"Feng Chong pays respects to Master!"
Upon seeing Zhou Xun, the Earth Element Beast respectfully bowed.
"Haha, what do you think of these wings?" Zhou Xun, in a good mood, asked.
Upon hearing this, Feng Chong looked over and saw an eight-foot Zhou Xun with suddenly sprouted giant thunder wings almost ten feet wide.
"These are Thunder Wings!"
Feng Chong was greatly surprised.
Wind and Thunder Element Demon Beasts are the fastest entities in the Cultivation Realm.
Like the Thunder Roc and Wind Feathered Eagle, they are symbols of speed in the Cultivation Realm!
"Indeed, now you have Wind Wings, and I have Thunder Wings, how about a race?"
Zhou Xun suggested with a smile.
"Since Master is interested, Feng Chong will certainly accompany you!"
Then let us set off ten thousand miles to the west, shall we?
"As you command!"
As soon as the words fell,
With a thunderous crash, lightning struck the flat ground, and a bolt of lightning zoomed away,
Simultaneously, a breeze followed closely!
Zhou Xun did not use any Escape Technique, relying on Thunder Wings alone to reach peak speed, the water-markings below swiftly passing by as lingering shadows.
And the demon beasts in the sea below, upon sensing this flash of Thunder Light, all avoided into the distance,
For fear of catching the attention of this Powerful Cultivator and losing their lives.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Feng Chong found himself falling behind, while Zhou Xun continued accelerating, soon leaving the Earth Element Beast behind.
Seeing this, Zhou Xun was elated!
Knowing that the Earth Element Beast was already renowned for its speed, yet it was still considerably inferior under his Thunder Wings.
"Truly a treasure as recorded in the ’Purple Sky Thunder Technique!"
At this thought, Zhou Xun had a sudden idea.
He focused and from his Dantian, the Thunder Pool flashed with light, a surge of Thunder Power erupted, and, under Zhou Xun’s control, channeled directly into Thunder Wings.
Indeed!
With Thunder Power enhancement, the Thunder Wings blazed brightly, speed increasing by another third.
It was a speed Zhou Xun had never experienced before.
Although the world is vast, I can traverse it!
"With this kind of Escape Technique, even facing a Nascent Soul Cultivator, even if I can’t win, I can escape successfully!"
...
A day later, Zhou Xun’s figure appeared on a small island ten thousand miles away.
The island was small, barely over ten miles in size, barren and littered with giant stones.
More peculiarly, the giant stones bore the marks of wind cuts,
As if thousands of Wind Blades had swept past, extremely peculiar.
"When Feng Chong arrives, maybe we can understand more!" Zhou Xun murmured to himself, then sat cross-legged and began to meditate and regulate his breath.
...
A few more hours passed, and a silhouette finally appeared on the horizon,
It was Feng Chong who had arrived.
"Greetings, Master!"
"Old Feng, you’ve grown slow!" Zhou Xun teased.
"Master’s speed is unmatched; Feng Chong can’t compare!" Feng Chong admitted with admiration.
"Haha, rest for a while, and then we’ll return... By the way, look at these marks on the island, they seem like wind blade cuts!"
"You’re a Wind Attribute Great Demon, can you find anything?"
Zhou Xun pointed at the marks spread across the place.
"Yes!"
Feng Chong then turned and lay down on a giant stone, examining it carefully.
A moment later, Feng Chong’s voice came again,
"Master is correct, these marks were indeed caused by Wind Blades, likely from practicing some Wind Element Technique!"
"Judging by the range and direction of these marks, the cultivator’s Cultivation is likely in the Fourth Realm!"
"Moreover, although these marks appear old, they were actually made recently, with the Wind Blades around them also being quite potent, making them look weather-beaten!"
"Master, something is wrong!"
"There may be a Fourth Realm Wind Attribute Demon Emperor nearby," the Earth Element Beast’s tone changed, quickly reporting.
"What!"
Zhou Xun was taken aback!
Could it be such a coincidence that the island he casually found was near a Wind Attribute Demon Emperor’s lair!
"Let’s go!"
Zhou Xun made the decision without hesitation.
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded,
"It’s rare to have a guest here, Old Feng suggests sharing a drink before you leave!"
