Devouring the Azure Bull's Spirituality
"Boom!"
Lightning struck the bronze Great Lu, causing it to glow brightly with green Great Lu. Moments later, it shattered and split into specks of green light.
However, this also bought Song Wen a brief moment to strike with his sword.
Braving the surging lightning, he thrust his sword towards Lei Hong's throat.
Lei Hong, who had just used all his spiritual power to unleash the Thunder Burst Technique, was now at the point where his old power was exhausted and new power had not yet been generated.
His eyes widened as he stared at the approaching three-foot-long sword. With a thought, a flying sword appeared out of thin air and pierced straight into Song Wen's chest.
To relieve the siege of Wei by attacking Zhao.
If Song Wen insists on piercing his throat, then his longsword will also pierce Song Wen's heart.
He didn't believe the other party would be willing to exchange their life for his.
However, to his disbelief, Song Wen neither dodged nor evaded, allowing Lei Hong's flying sword to pierce his chest.
Song Wen's longsword plunged directly into Lei Hong's throat, unleashing a burst of violent spiritual power that shredded his neck to pieces.
Lei Hong's head landed on the rocky ground, rolling around, his eyes wide open, dying with his head still agape.
Song Wen was also pierced through by Lei Hong's longsword, half of his chest was torn apart by the sharp Sword Qi.
With a flash, Song Wen appeared unharmed three meters away.
Song Wen took Lei Hong's head into his hand, and with one hand he grabbed Lei Hong's torso, devouring his Essence Blood, and soul.
He casually ripped the storage ring off the corpse's hand, and then took another storage ring from the corpse's bosom. This storage ring originally belonged to Gan Yue.
A burst of fire descended and engulfed Lei Hong's corpse.
The bodies of the Lei Lineage members could not be kept, and Song Wen dared not keep them either.
Song Wen turned around and went to the altar.
The fierce battle just now shattered countless rocks and caused huge boulders to fall from the cave ceiling, but the altar and the ground formation remained completely undamaged, which is truly miraculous.
Whether it was nearing completion of its advancement or affected by the recent battle, Azure Bull showed signs of awakening. Its body began to slowly twist, but Lei Tianyu had previously bound it with chains, so Azure Bull had no chance of breaking free for the time being. However, Song Wen didn't have much time left.
He sat cross-legged in the same position as Lei Hong had previously sat, placing his hands on the recesses in the altar's stone wall.
A moment later, the altar remained unresponsive.
Song Wen was startled; he had paid a heavy price to kill Lei Hong.
The Green-Faced Ghost General was killed in battle, the Red-Haired Ghost General and the Silver Corpse were seriously injured, and he himself lost a substitute puppet. If he could not devour the Thunder Method Spirit of the Azure Bull, he would suffer a great loss.
At this moment, Lei Tianyu, who was lying on the ground, suddenly laughed loudly.
"Well done! Lei Hong, that heartless bastard, deserves to die. But it's impossible for you to plunder my Lei Clan's altar. Only a member of my Lei Lineage can activate this altar."
"Release me and take me back to the Lei Clan. I promise you, as the future head of the Lei Clan, that I will bestow upon you endless Cultivation Resources."
Song Wen stood up, walked to Lei Tianyu, and said coldly.
"A piece of trash with a shattered Dantian dares to presume to call himself the future head of the Lei Clan."
Song Wen's right hand formed a claw, moving with lightning speed, and reached for Lei Tianyu's head.
"No, my Lei Clan possesses a priceless treasure that can repair the Dantian..."
Before Lei Tianyu could finish speaking, he felt a powerful soul force invade his brain, instantly turning his mind into a chaotic mess and blurring his consciousness.
A moment later, Song Wen released his right hand, turned around, and walked towards the altar.
He didn't kill Lei Tianyu, but instead used Soul Search Technique.
From the memories obtained through soul searching, Song Wen learned that in order to activate the altar, he needed to inject lightning power into it.
Song Wen sat down in front of the altar again, placed his hands on it, and began to unleash his Palm Thunder.
A bolt of lightning the size of a chopstick surged from the palm of the hand and poured onto the altar.
The altar gradually began to shimmer with silver light, and countless tiny silver snakes appeared and disappeared on it.
However, Song Wen's Palm Thunder was pitifully weak. After he activated more than ten Palm Thunder strikes in succession, the altar finally shone with silver light.
As if sensing a deadly threat, the Azure Bull suddenly awoke from its advanced dormancy.
The bull's eyes were wide open, and its two hooves, one in front and one behind, were braced against the altar, as if it wanted to stand up.
The chains binding it suddenly tightened, preventing it from standing up.
The Azure Bull became extremely angry, lightning crackling from its mouth and nostrils, its aura gradually rising, and a terrifying pressure descended upon the entire cave.
Suddenly.
Suddenly, the Azure Bull felt a terrifying suction force emanating from the stone platform beneath it, firmly adhering it to the platform and forcibly interrupting its prepared thunderous technique.
The suction force grew stronger and stronger, as if it were about to tear its skin and flesh apart, and shred its body.
"Moo... Moo... Moo..."
The Azure Bull let out a series of mournful roars.
On the cow's belly, the tough hide suddenly split open with tiny gashes, and bright red blood oozed out from the openings.
The wound gradually began to extend and widen until the entire cowhide pasted on the altar was forcibly torn apart, revealing bloody flesh.
The suction force of the altar continued to intensify, tearing away layer after layer of flesh from the Azure Bull's body.
The Azure Bull gradually stopped bellowing, and tears welled up in its desperate eyes, sliding down its cheeks.
The altar was stained red with blood, which coalesced into a Blood Serpent that crawled up Song Wen's arm and then burrowed into Song Wen mouth.
Unlike Lei Tianyu, Song Wen did not suffer inhuman pain after swallowing the Blood Serpent.
As soon as the Blood Serpent entered Song Wen's body, it was quickly devoured by his flesh and transformed into pure Essence Blood.
An inexplicable spirituality was absorbed by Song Wen along with it.
Half an hour later, Song Wen stood up, looked at the mangled remains of the Azure Bull, and a smile appeared on his lips.
He could clearly sense that his understanding of Thunder Method had suddenly become clearer.
Previously, to unleash the Palm Thunder technique, one could only blindly follow the Cultivation Method, like searching for a way out through layers of fog.
At this moment, he had a clear understanding of the Palm Thunder, as if he had suddenly realized something, and the fog that had been shrouding his eyes cleared away.
A thought crossed my mind.
A palm-sized Palm Thunder appeared in the palm of the hand.
The Palm Thunder in his hand was several times larger than the fist-sized Palm Thunder described in the Cultivation Method Jade Slip.
A satisfied smile appeared on Song Wen's face. As expected of a spirit beast with the bloodline of the divine Kui Bull, it devoured the Thunder Method spirituality on the Azure Bull, making Song Wen a rare genius of Thunder Method in the world.
No wonder Lei Tianyu went to great lengths, Lei Hong even betrayed his own clan, all to obtain the Thunder Method spirit of the Azure Bull.
Song Wen Wenchao looked at the unconscious Lei Tianyu, waved his hand, and used a burst of spiritual energy to pull him onto the altar.
Lei Tianyu has absorbed the spiritual energy of many people's Thunder Method, and his own Thunder Method spiritual energy is not weak. He can be considered a genius in Thunder Method, and his Thunder Method spiritual energy cannot be wasted.
Lei Hong didn't kill Lei Tianyu for the same reason.
Following Lei Tianyu's memory, Song Wen reactivated the formation and altar.
After a person is forcibly subjected to a soul search, most will become mentally impaired due to damage to their soul.
But Lei Tianyu was very lucky; his soul was remarkably undamaged.
But he was also very unlucky; after the altar was activated, he awoke.
Seeing himself lying on the altar, watching the lightning flickering on it, Lei Tianyu's eyes were filled with terror.
He was all too familiar with this scene.
However, in the past, it was always others who lay on the altar while he sat cross-legged beside it, devouring the spirituality of others.
This time, the roles were reversed; he lay on the altar, allowing others to devour his spiritual essence.
"No, please spare me! My father is the renowned Thunderclap Daoist Lei Jun. If you spare me, he will surely give you a large amount of Spirit Stone and treasures."
Song Wen remained unmoved.
Feeling the altar's suction increasing and the skin on his back gradually being torn apart, Lei Tianyu screamed in agony.
"You can't kill me. My Lei Clan ancestor was Nascent Soul expert. He was very fond of me, and I have a fragment of his divine soul within me. Even if you kill me, you won't escape his pursuit."
