The Ao Family's Fury, the Third Low-Grade Lightning Dao Art

The Supreme Mystery Immortal Domain, the Ao Family family.

This place floats above towering thunderclouds, with a continuous stretch of celestial palaces. Each palace is engraved with ancient star patterns, showcasing the formidable power of a top family in the middle-level immortal realm.

However, inside the "Eternal Light Hall," where the soul lamps of the core members of the family are enshrined, a crisp cracking sound shattered the millennia-long tranquility.

"Smack!"

The temple elder suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze falling on the golden soul lamp at the front, and his face instantly turned ashen.

"Wushuang... Young Master Wushuang's soul lamp has gone out?!"

That was the most outstanding genius in the Ao Family for ten thousand years, possessing a top-grade immortal body, and even bringing a True Immortal puppet with him to the Lower Realm for training. How could he possibly perish in such a desolate place?!

"Boom--!!!"

A terrifying aura descended upon the hall in an instant. The newcomer was dressed in a golden robe, with eyes like lightning. He was none other than Ao Zhentian, the current head of the Ao Family, a Late True Immortal expert whose aura was unfathomable!

He stared at the broken lamp, the air around him seemingly frozen solid by his anger.

"Investigate! Immediately use secret techniques and treasures to find out the coordinates of Wushuang's fall!"

"Whoever killed my son, I will refine their entire clan into starlight, to suffer eternal torment!"

The entire Supreme Mystery Immortal Domain was thrown into chaos by this roar, with the winds shifting and killing intent filling the air.

While Ao Family was frantically searching for the murderer, Dongfang Yueming had already crossed the barrier of the Immortal Realm through the spatial node in the far north.

The moment he stepped out of the spatial passage, a surge of immortal spiritual energy, more than ten times more refined than that of the Desolate Ancient Immortal Domain, rushed towards him.

Is this the intermediate-level immortal realm— the Supreme Mystery Immortal Domain?

Looking out, Dongfang Yueming saw endless immortal mountains in the distance, and cultivators riding spirit beasts everywhere. As his divine sense swept over them, he secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.

Earth Immortal, who would be kings and rulers in the Desolate Ancient Immortal Domain, are indeed as numerous as carp crossing a river here. Even the guards that can be seen everywhere are mostly at the peak of the Perfected Human Immortal or even the Earth Immortal Realm.

"Earth Immortal are no better than dogs, Heaven Immortal are everywhere... The ancients were right."

Dongfang Yueming looked down at his hands. With his current cultivation level at the peak of the Perfected Heavenly Immortal realm, he could only be considered a "minor expert" here at best; he was far from being able to act arrogantly and domineeringly.

He concealed his aura and stepped into a massive immortal city—[Ten Thousand Treasures Immortal City].

The trading venues here are vast in scale, and you can even see systematic auctions of immortal techniques and direct trading of rare resources.

He went to a shop called "Ten Thousand Dharmas Pavilion" and got straight to the point. "I need a low-grade lightning-based Dao technique. Name your price."

The manager behind the counter merely raised his eyes slightly, showing no shock at the words "Daoist arts." After all, this was a mid-level immortal realm, and transactions of this level occurred every day.

"The ' Tianlei Fallen Star Exposition ' contains nine lower-grade, three middle-grade, and one higher-grade supporting methods, totaling eight thousand lower-grade immortal stones."

Eight thousand?!

Dongfang Yueming was slightly startled. He had previously wiped out the Zhao Family, looted the entire city lord's mansion, and committed murder and robbery, leaving him with only tens of thousands of immortal stones. This low-grade Dao technique had taken away a large portion of them.

But he knew very well that the value of Daoist arts lay not in their price, but in their "complexity".

For an ordinary cultivator to master a Dao technique, they need to collect all thirteen matching immortal techniques, and each one requires hundreds or even thousands of years to comprehend and hone. Finally, they must attempt to perfectly fuse them together. Those with less talent may exhaust their lifespan without ever even touching the threshold of a Dao technique.

"I bought it."

Dongfang Yueming tossed out a storage bag and took the purple jade slip.

[The third door... is finally complete!]

During his stay at the Ten Thousand Dharmas Pavilion, Dongfang Yueming continued to inquire about Immortal Seed and more advanced Daoist techniques.

"Manager, what's the market price for these Immortal Seed?"

The manager sneered, "Immortal Seed? Those are things that defy the heavens and change one's fate. Even the lowest grade Yellow-Grade Immortal Seed starts at ten thousand low-grade immortal stones in the Supreme Mystery Immortal Domain, and most of them are priceless."

"Want Earth-grade or even Heaven-grade? You'll have to go to the large auctions in the upper-level immortal realms, or the treasuries of those supreme immortal dynasties."

Dongfang Yueming silently calculated in his mind: [To reach the pinnacle, this expense is simply a bottomless pit.]

At that moment, the conversation of several monks nearby caught his attention.

"Have you heard? In order to recruit more talented people, the ' Holy Sword Sect ' of the Upper Immortal Realm has actually revealed the true meaning of their sect's treasured mid-grade Dao technique, the ' Great Five Elements Extermination Sword Qi '!"

"Public? Then can we go and learn from them?"

"You can see it, but whether you can comprehend its true meaning depends on fate. It is said that in the central square of each of the major mid-level immortal realms, there are stone tablets with rubbings of this Dao technique. If you can comprehend even a trace of it, you can ascend to the heavens in one step and be accepted as an outer disciple by Immortal Ancestor!"

Dongfang Yueming's heart stirred upon hearing this.

[A publicly disclosed mid-grade Daoist technique?]

[Others need to gain insights, but I only need to glance at it, enter it into the system, and the Point Allocation...]

This is practically a leveling spot made just for me!

He clenched his fists, a fiery glint in his eyes.
