Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder crashed down mercilessly, forming a thunder domain spanning a hundred miles.
Within the thunder domain, the cultivators all wore terrified expressions.
At this moment, they clearly recognized the gap between themselves and Cihang.
"No, you can't do this to us!"
"We are Kunlun disciples. Are you truly going to become enemies with Kunlun?"
"Withdraw your divine ability at once!"
Cihang remained completely unmoved, gazing expressionlessly at the cultivators below.
Though they called themselves Kunlun disciples, they actually had no connection whatsoever to the Sanqing.
They were merely independent cultivators of Kunlun Mountain.
These cultivators lacked resources and had shallow foundations. Even their cultivation methods were exceedingly crude.
Being allowed to test the power of the Five Elements Divine Lightning was an honor for them.
Cihang did not pay them much attention. Instead, he contemplated the changes in the Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder.
This Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder was one of the divine abilities he had deduced.
It consisted of the five great divine thunders of Geng Metal, Yi Wood, Gui Water, Bing Fire, and Wu Earth.
Cihang had integrated a trace of the true intent of creation into it, allowing the divine thunder to contain a sliver of Creation and Vitality amid destruction.
The Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder was not merely a divine ability; it was also an auxiliary cultivation method for his Golden Immortal realm.
Before reaching the Golden Immortal realm, cultivators mostly accumulated magical power, with little difference between them.
Yet upon reaching the Golden Immortal realm, they began to come into contact with Law Profundity, using it to fuse the five qi within their chests and form the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.
Because each person cultivated differently, the five qi they formed also differed greatly.
The intent behind the Great Dao of Life was too lofty. He could not yet touch upon its true intent, so he had likewise chosen the power of the five elements.
He evolved the Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder and used the power of this divine ability to nurture the five qi in his chest. This gave him both the power to attack enemies and the effect of assisting cultivation.
"This Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder has only just taken shape. The five elements are difficult to balance, so it still needs further deduction and refinement!"
After watching for a moment, Cihang sighed.
A closer look would reveal that the Yi Wood and Gui Water divine thunders were far stronger than the other three.
This was because he himself was aligned with water and wood, so those two lightning arts naturally possessed the greatest power.
Next, he needed to strengthen the other three divine thunders, either by comprehending Law Profundity or by incorporating Innate Spiritual Items of the corresponding attributes.
Even the Yi Wood and Gui Water divine thunders needed further improvement.
Only when the five elements were balanced could creation be set in motion and its greatest power unleashed.
"Now that the flaws in the lightning art have been tested, you are of no further use!"
Cihang waved his hand and produced the Jade Divine Seal, suppressing the several people who were already on the verge of death.
"No!"
"Fellow Daoist Cihang, we were wrong!"
"Don't!"
Boom!
Amid their curses and pleas for mercy, the Jade Divine Seal crashed down, utterly cutting off the last remnants of their vitality.
Cihang felt no fluctuation because of this. In this Primordial World, there was no room for softness of heart.
Since they had dared to harbor killing intent toward him, they naturally had to pay the appropriate price.
"Still refusing to show yourself?"
Five Elements thunderclouds hovered above Cihang's head, while the Jade Divine Seal rested obediently in his palm, emitting beams of divine light.
"Even this was discovered. Little friend, you truly are extraordinary!"
A ripple suddenly appeared in the void, and Randeng emerged not far from Cihang.
"So it is Senior Randeng. Are you here to teach Cihang a lesson as well?"
Cihang's heart sank, and the thunderclouds above him grew ever denser.
"The Five Elements lightning art is quite formidable, but I am not one of those trash cultivators. Do you think lightning arts alone can stop me?"
Randeng did not attack immediately. Instead, he looked at Cihang with great interest.
"This junior does not believe he has ever offended Senior. Does Senior intend to make things difficult for me?"
If possible, Cihang did not wish to clash with Randeng. The difference between their realms was far too great.
"I am now considered a Kunlun cultivator. You treated Kunlun cultivators in this manner. Do you truly hold Kunlun in such contempt?"
Randeng's expression remained gentle, but his tone had grown somewhat colder.
"Senior jests. They are merely unrecognized independent cultivators. Why should Senior concern himself over them?
They simply brought death upon themselves!"
Even before Randeng, Cihang did not regret killing those wandering immortals.
"Very well, they truly are not so important.
But there is something I am very curious about. Why did you refuse Fellow Daoist Yuanshi? Do you have some other support?
Do not speak of poor aptitude again. I will not believe it."
Randeng truly could not understand why Cihang had abandoned such an opportunity.
After all, Yuanshi had intended to accept him as a direct disciple.
Even Randeng had been somewhat envious of this. He had lowered his status to enter Yuanshi's sect. Though nominally of the same generation as Yuanshi, he had not received the true teachings.
He had not come this time to demand accountability, but to see what inheritance Cihang possessed.
"There are not so many reasons. Our paths simply differ."
Looking at Randeng, Cihang became even more guarded.
"Is that so? Since little friend refuses to speak, I will personally see what support you possess!"
A giant dark hand of magical power suddenly reached for Cihang.
That deathly, shadowy aura made Cihang's heart sink.
"Five Elements Divine Lightning, descend!"
The Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder instantly fell toward the giant hand of magical power.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Though the giant hand was formed only from magical power, its momentum did not diminish before the divine thunder, smashing one bolt of divine lightning after another.
Divine thunder continuously fell from the thunderclouds. Though it could not destroy the giant hand, it ultimately halted its advance.
"Hm? There is some mystery to it!"
Randeng swept his sleeve, condensing several hundred more sinister giant hands that constantly shifted within the sea of lightning.
Though Randeng appeared immortal and refined, because of his true body, his magical power and divine abilities were cold and sinister.
In Cihang's view, Randeng truly was unsuited to the path of the Jade Purity. He was instead more compatible with the Netherworld Ghost Dao.
Yet Randeng was clearly unwilling to fall into the unorthodox path, which was why he had reversed evil into righteousness and entered Kunlun.
Thousands of giant hands gathered together, forcibly carving out a sinister ghost domain within the sea of lightning, as though countless dead spirits were howling and wailing within it.
Randeng had come less to teach Cihang a lesson than to probe Cihang's true background.
If Cihang truly possessed some great opportunity, then he, Randeng, could not be blamed.
Unlike Randeng's ease, Cihang fully activated the Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder, refusing to let those sinister giant hands advance even a step.
"If this is the extent of your abilities, then do not blame me for showing no mercy!"
Seeing no further changes in the lightning art, Randeng produced a jade ruler. In an instant, it had arrived above Cihang's head.
"Jade Divine Seal, block!"
Cihang hurled out the Jade Divine Seal, which had been gathering power for a long time. It transformed into an immeasurable divine mountain and slammed into the Heaven Measuring Ruler.
"Cauldron, stabilize my body! Azure Dragon Battle Skill!"
Cihang shouted, and the Creation Cauldron fused into his body, instantly raising his physical body to the Taiyi realm.
Immediately afterward, he rose into the air, his palm transforming into an azure dragon as he charged toward the Heaven Measuring Ruler.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Just as the Jade Divine Seal was knocked back to its original form, thousands of azure dragons crashed into the Heaven Measuring Ruler.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With a gesture of his hand, Cihang guided the Jade Divine Seal to continue smashing down toward the Heaven Measuring Ruler.
