Nascent Soul Cultivator Descends

"Please... don't kill me... ah... ah..."

The excruciating pain of being torn apart, his flesh being ripped open layer by layer, caused Lei Tianyu to completely lose his pride as the eldest son of the Lei Clan, and he begged again and again.

Like the dying cries of those cultivators whose spirituality he had devoured before; like Sun Ru's desperate pleas before her death.

Shouting hoarsely, hysterically.

A moment later, Song Wen devoured the spiritual energy of Lei Tianyu's Thunder Method, along with his soul and a powerful divine thought.

A powerful divine thought that made Song Wen tremble slightly.

"You brat, how dare you! You actually dared to kill a direct descendant of the Lei Clan! I will kill you!"

The divine thought transformed into a raging torrent, surging and surging towards Song Wen's Sea of Consciousness, as if to drag Song Wen's consciousness into an endless abyss.

A vast, boundless Black Hole suddenly appeared in Song Wen's Sea of Consciousness.

"What the hell is this thing!" A voice, tinged with fear, echoed from the divine sense.

Then, the torrent of consciousness formed from divine thought was instantly swallowed up by the Sea of Consciousness Black Hole.

Song Wen felt a sudden, sharp pain in his brain, which almost made him fall.

Although his divine sense was swallowed by the Black Hole, the powerful torrent of consciousness that evolved from it still shook Song Wen's Sea of Consciousness, causing him to have a splitting headache.

More than two thousand miles away.

Deep within the Lei Clan's territory, nestled in a mountain thousands of meters high, lies an old wooden house.

Inside the wooden house, a sprightly old man opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as lightning, and looked towards the northeast.

"Tianyu is dead! The divine thought that remained on him has also dissipated."

"Who killed him? I clearly sensed that person's cultivation wasn't strong, so how could they annihilate a wisp of my divine sense?"

"What was that Black Hole that divine sense last saw?"

"Damn it! The stone disc from the altar entrance is still on Tianyu; this item cannot be lost."

At this moment, he was still unaware that Lei Tianyu had died in the Altar Cave, and that the altar had been exposed.

With a thought, the old man vanished from the wooden house.

The sudden appearance of the divine thought made Song Wen's heart pound with unease, a strong sense of unease rising within him.

But Song Wen did not lose his composure because of this.

With one hand, Song Wen ripped off Lei Tianyu's storage ring, and with the other, he grabbed the corpse and threw it next to the bodies of Kou Chang and Gan Yue in the rubble pit.

With a casual wave of her hand, Kou Chang's Storage Bag flew into the air and landed where Song Wen was.

At the same time, a stone disc appeared in Song Wen's hand.

As soon as Song Wen got his hands on the disc, he noticed a Divine Sense imprint on it. The aura of this Divine Sense imprint was exactly the same as the divine sense aura on Lei Tianyu's body just now, so it should have come from the same person.

After absorbing the Spirit Stone imprint on the disc, Song Wen cast several Method Formulas at the disc.

The Method Formula to activate the disc was obtained from Lei Tianyu's memories.

A short distance ahead, a hole several feet wide suddenly appeared in the stone wall.

Song Wen leaped into the air and rushed towards the cave entrance. At the same time, he threw three fireballs, which landed in the rubble pit and set the bodies of Lei Tianyu, Kou Chang, and Gan Yue ablaze. After a dozen breaths, the three bodies were burned to ashes.

After exiting the cave, Song Wen cast several Method Formula onto the disc, and the cave entrance behind him suddenly disappeared, returning to the stone wall.

Song Wen put away the disc and quickly moved along the underwater cave toward the lake.

While traveling, he took out Lei Tianyu's and Lei Hong's storage rings, invaded them with his Divine Sense, and only after confirming that there were no residual Divine Sense imprints on any of the items in the two storage rings did he feel at ease putting them into his pocket.

After checking the two storage rings, Song Wen also left the cave and came to the edge of the deep lake.

Song Wen continued his rapid ascent into the depths of the lake ahead.

After darting more than thirty miles underwater, Song Wen suddenly sensed a turtle-like Demon Beast the size of a millstone in the silt at the bottom of the lake ahead. The turtle demon was very weak, around the Qi Refining Third Layer.

Song Wen rushed directly towards the turtle demon. Upon getting close, he flicked out a burst of spiritual energy from his hand, stunning the turtle demon.

Burrowing into the mud, Song Wen placed the turtle demon above his body, controlled his physical form, suppressed his aura, and transformed himself into a stone-like being, completely still.

A moment later, Song Wen suddenly felt a powerful and vast Divine Sense sweep over him, making Song Wen feel uneasy and anxious.

The owner of that divine thought has indeed arrived.

The Divine Sense swept back and forth across the lakebed several times, but found nothing. Perhaps the owner of the Divine Sense thought that the lakebed had been thoroughly explored and that the murderer was not at the bottom of the lake, so the Divine Sense disappeared without a trace.

Song Wen remained hidden beneath the boulder, showing no sign of relaxation despite the loss of his Divine Sense, and remained completely still.

Half an hour later, the Divine Sense descended again, explored the bottom of the lake several more times, and then disappeared without a trace.

Lei Yue stood in mid-air, his brows furrowed. He had searched the area within a hundred miles several times, but had not found any signs of life.

Beneath him was a large crater, still containing remnants of lightning power, left behind by Lei Hong when he chased Gan Yue.

The lingering scent near the pit told Lei Yue that Lei Hong had also visited this place not long ago.

Lei Tianyu died here, Lei Hong also came here.

Lei Yue had a vague feeling that Lei Hong had most likely also met with misfortune.

After pondering for a moment without finding anything, Lei Yue flashed to the underwater stone wall at the entrance of the Altar Cave.

The deaths of Lei Tianyu and Lei Hong are insignificant to the Lei Clan, but if the altar is exposed, it will be a devastating blow to the Lei Clan.

Lei Yue looked at the intact stone wall in front of him and did not make any rash moves.

Without that stone disc, entering the cave would require forcibly breaking through the stone wall.

Once the stone wall is broken, the ancient formation set up on it will be destroyed, and the lake water will flood into the cave, which is not in the Lei Clan's interest.

Moreover, he wasn't confident he could break through the stone wall.

Lei Yue flashed and appeared above the lake once more.

He stared at the ground by the lake for a while, calculating the approximate location of the Altar Cave in his mind, and then flew towards the land.

After flying for several miles, Lei Yue stopped, and a long sword appeared in front of him.

Without him making any move, the longsword suddenly emitted Sword-Ray, and the Sword Qi surged.

The longsword moved with lightning speed, piercing straight into the earth.

The thick, solid earth, as easily as tofu, was pierced by the longsword, which penetrated deep into the earth.

The thick rock layer, over a hundred meters high, was pierced by the longsword, which then entered the Altar Cave.

The longsword pierced through the rock strata several times, gradually carving out a straight Vertical Tunnel that people could pass through.

Lei Yue jumped into the Vertical Tunnel and entered the Altar Cave.
