Chapter 554: 265. Second Grade Opportunity, Qi of Transforming Heaven and Earth! (Two in One Chapter) _3

However, the Spiritual Object was too precious for Wen Zhaoqian to abandon, given his background and experience.

The only option now was to concentrate, ignore the external storms, and complete the Ritual Instrument as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Zhu Bo Cave Mansion was hidden, concealed in the deep sea, making it difficult for even an Upper Three Heavens Cultivator to sense this place through the distant ocean depths.

Wen Zhaoqian, seeking absolute secrecy, had not arranged for any disciples to act as protectors.

Under the current circumstances, there was no better protective strategy than keeping the secret.

Wen Zhaoqian collected his thoughts, choosing to trust his fellow sect members and Daoist friends outside, and continued with the soul possession ritual.

The essence of Kang Ming himself was submerged and devoured by the icy sea, appearing to be in a pitiful condition.

But in Wen Zhaoqian’s eyes, this younger Talisman Sect cultivator had a Spiritual Soul that was very tenacious, and his willpower was equally firm.

Although submerged by the icy sea, the moment Wen Zhaoqian relaxed even slightly, Kang Ming might resurface.

To completely grind down his spirit and assimilate his Spiritual Soul would take time.

As Wen Zhaoqian was redoubling his efforts, he suddenly felt a warning stir within his heart.

Although he had now invaded Kang Ming’s Spiritual Soul, he was still technically in a Nascent Soul Travel state, with extremely sensitive perceptions.

Wen Zhaoqian could not confirm what had happened, but he vaguely sensed that someone else had entered.

Just as Wen Zhaoqian was startled and alarmed, a new change occurred in Kang Ming’s sea of consciousness.

Beyond the cold, black sea of ice, a large amount of black lightning suddenly appeared. Even though it was lightning, it was still silent. But it soon clashed violently with the black sea of ice.

"Yin Thunder?!" Wen Zhaoqian was shocked once again.

Ordinary people’s souls are Yin spirits. They are difficult to leave the body and cannot move in daylight. They are wary of fiery, mighty Yang forces such as thunder.

Taoist Alchemy Cauldron Sect cultivators cultivate the Yang God. They do not fear sunlight, their forms are solidified and firm, and they are no longer overcome by strong Yang thunder and lightning.

However, Yin Thunder can erode a Yang God.

Wen Zhaoqian’s Nascent Soul was tough, but he dared not be struck by Yin Thunder, especially during such a crucial moment of soul possession.

At this point, Wen Zhaoqian could no longer care whether he was wasting the precious Spiritual Object; his Nascent Soul immediately began to escape outward.

Outside Kang Ming’s Spiritual Soul, in the real world, Lei Jun arrived at the core of the cave mansion.

By the time he arrived, he only saw Wen Zhaoqian’s damaged Golden Core, with no sign of his Nascent Soul.

But seeing Kang Ming’s current state, Lei Jun instantly understood that an intense struggle for possession was going on inside his Spiritual Soul.

Lei Jun’s gaze swept around. His eyes first landed below the Altar in the ritual area. Then he looked at Wen Zhaoqian’s Golden Core atop the Altar.

After a brief consideration, Lei Jun did not touch that Golden Core.

He turned instead to intervene in the current surreal battle for the ownership of Kang Ming’s body and soul using a simple and brutal method: projecting his own soul.

Wen Zhaoqian’s Nascent Soul wanted to retreat and flee, but Lei Jun directly blocked it inside Kang Ming’s body.

The Dual Polarity Heavenly Primordial Talisman created an environment full of Primordial Magnet Force, isolating the inside and outside of the cave mansion. Meanwhile, the Xuánxiāo Five Thunder Talisman generated more black Yin Thunder. This lightning transformed into dense thunderclouds, surrounding Wen Zhaoqian’s Nascent Soul and unleashing wave upon wave of relentless attacks.

At this moment, Wen Zhaoqian regretted having no one to act as a protector for his ritual. He was puzzled by how Lei Jun could have appeared in this hidden cave mansion. However, he had no time for regrets and could only fight with all his might.

Because he was more worried about Lei Jun destroying his remaining Golden Core.

"Today, I will fight you to the bitter end!" Wen Zhaoqian’s Nascent Soul vibrated and underwent a new transformation.

The black sea of ice quickly disappeared, and in its place, a pale golden, fierce wind suddenly arose.

The fierce wind was grim and brutal, emitting an awe-inspiring sharpness that seemed able to cut through heaven and earth.

A tiger’s roar arose with the wind.

Within the golden, fierce wind, the form of a pure white tiger materialized.

A direct orthodox method from Pure Yang Palace: the Penalty of Soldier’s Extinction, the image of the White Tiger!

Among the various Schools of Dharma of Pure Yang Palace, the lineage of the White Tiger, the Jianbing God Monarch, has always possessed the most powerful attacks. This holds true regardless of whether Taoist martial arts or Spiritual Soul Magic are used, with this lineage specializing in offense and killing.

Once Wen Zhaoqian released his Penalty of Soldier’s Extinction technique, he was prepared to settle the outcome with Lei Jun.

The battle of Spiritual Soul Magic was invisible from the outside.

In the real world, no sign showed; only Lei Jun’s and Kang Ming’s bodies, and Wen Zhaoqian’s Golden Core atop the Altar, stood quietly in opposition.

Yet within the perilous fray, the dangers were sometimes even greater, with the risk of death or injury at every turn.

Lei Jun’s Spiritual Soul was now facing Wen Zhaoqian’s desperate strike.

In this respect, it was one of the strengths of Taoist Alchemy Cauldron Sect cultivators. Although Lei Jun’s Spiritual Soul was also tenacious, facing it head-on did not guarantee victory.

But he was exceptionally calm. This was because among the flashes of purple, gold, and green lights, a Great Seal suddenly rose from the depths of Lei Jun’s Spiritual Soul.

The three colors of light converged mid-air to form a Three-tiered Dharma Altar, instantly suppressing the grim and fierce White Tiger Astral Wind.

Then, the White Jade Great Seal powerfully struck Wen Zhaoqian’s Spiritual Soul!

Former Pure Yang Palace Elder Wen Zhaoqian had cultivated for many years and, at least on the surface, maintained a composed facade. Now, however, curses were on the tip of his tongue, but he was unable to utter them as the sudden appearance of the Celestial Master Seal smashed his intended words back down his throat.

Wen Zhaoqian’s Nascent Soul, originally ready to soar out of Kang Ming’s soul during the attack on Lei Jun, was now like a fragile piece of porcelain. Numerous cracks appeared on its surface, and it could barely maintain its integrity without shattering.

"The fish will die, but the net will not break."

Lei Jun withdrew the Celestial Master Seal, then waved his hand. "Just as you will die, we will be unharmed."

Black lightning once again surged forward, engulfing Wen Zhaoqian’s heavily wounded Nascent Soul.

Though Taoist Sect Nascent Souls may appear fragile and delicate, having reached a certain level of development, the toughness of their Spiritual Souls ranks among the highest under the heavens.

But Wen Zhaoqian’s Nascent Soul was now flawed and damaged, no longer perfect, and its solidity had drastically decreased.
