The Linglong Saintess wiped away the black ashes on her face and murmured, “Qingfeng Li, the five-colored thunderbolts are too strong. None of us could resist it, what should we do?”
Qingfeng Li frowned and started to think of a solution.
He had to take everyone to the Thunder Immortal Palace. Otherwise, when the sect master and senior elder from the saint sects came, they would not leave the Linglong Saintess and the others alone for sure.
The Blood Immortal said, “Master, you could use the Power of Thunder in your body to form a defensive light veil and cover all of us inside and fly to the sky with us.”
Delight appeared in Qingfeng Li’s eyes, and he gave the Blood Immortal a thumbs-up with admiration.
An old-saying went like “the longer you live, the wiser you become.” Since the Blood Immortal had lived for a million years, she was pretty smart, so she came up with this excellent solution within moments.
Since Qingfeng Li was the only one who could block the five-colored thunderbolts out of all, then by theory, his defensive light veil would be able to prevent the thunderbolts as well.
He only had to block the five-colored thunderbolts and prevent others from receiving attacks.
Qingfeng Li channeled his energy and used the Thunder Chant, which formed a defensive light veil of a hundred meters squared in size around his body.
The defensive light veil was in five different colors, red, black, blue, purple, and green.
Qingfeng Li swung his hand and covered Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, the Blood Immortal, Blood Sea Saint, Clear-wood Saintess, and Linglong Saintess inside the veil.
“Fly,” Qingfeng Li shouted, and stepped on the ground lightly. He then flew to the Thunder Immortal Palace in the void with everyone.
Boomshakalaka…
Hundreds of five-colored thunderbolts shot out from the Thunder Immortal Palace again, and they were all directed to Qingfeng Li this time since he was in the forefront.
Qingfeng Li did not have any moment of hesitation when the five-colored thunderbolts appeared. He took out the Thunder Immortal Sword right away and stuck forward.
The Thunder Immortal Sword changed into a ray of thunder, which collided with the other five-colored thunderbolts and created an ear-shattering sound.
In the next moment, something unexpected happened: Qingfeng Li’s Thunder Immortal Sword absorbed all the incoming five-colored thunderbolts!
Qingfeng Li felt thrilled, and a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, he then murmured, “Great! I was worried that the Power of Thunder would not be enough to support the defensive light veil, but with the help of the Thunder Immortal Sword, there would be no problem.”
Qingfeng Li continued to fly to the Thunder Immortal Palace in the sky and continuously struck the surroundings with the Thunder Immortal Sword. He used the Thunder Immortal Sword Technique and absorbed all the five-colored thunderbolts in the air.
As time went on, the Thunder Immortal Sword absorbed more and more five-colored thunderbolts. The sword itself started to change, and dazzling rays of five different colors shot off from it.
With human eyes, one would be able to see that some tadpole-shaped talisman scripts had appeared on the body of the sword.
Those talisman scripts were distorted, and they looked like oracle bone scripts, which was completely different from the current way of writing. The talisman scripts looked like some symbols, but it was hard to comprehend their meanings.
However, Qingfeng Li could clearly feel that these symbols contained a vast amount of the Power of Thunder. The Power of Thunder was much stronger than the five-colored thunderbolts stored in Qingfeng Li’s body and the Thunder Pearl. It probably stored immortal-leveled thunderbolts.
Qingfeng Li glanced at the Thunder Immortal Sword at this moment and noticed its change. However, he did not care about it, because his primary goal was to reach the Thunder Immortal Palace, not absorb the five-colored thunderbolts.
The Thunder Immortal Palace was too big. It floated in the void almost a million meters from the ground. Qingfeng Li had to fly for a while until he reached the clouds.
When he landed on the ground, he noticed that he was standing on clouds!
All the pillars from the Thunder Immortal Palace were built with thunderstones and lots of thunder symbols were engraved on the pillars. Thunder and lightning continually struck down, and thunder-cracking sounds displayed from the pillars.
The tiles on top of the Thunder Immortal Palace all conducted electricity. Different thunderbolts flew between tiles, and there were five colors, red, blue, green, purple, and black. Each color represented a type of thunderbolt. The thunderbolts crossed and collided each other in the air, which shattered time and space.
The gate of the Thunder Immortal Palace was in front of Qingfeng Li. It was thousands of meters tall like the South Sky Gate at the Jade Emperor’s place. Qingfeng Li felt that he was tiny in front of the gate.
Two giant Stone Graved Thunder Lions made with stones were placed beside the gate. The Stone Graved Thunder Lions were hundreds of meters tall, and they were sculpted out of thunderstones.
Thunder and lightning surrounded the Stone Graved Thunder Lions. They sat up high and looked grave and their eyes sparkled as they looked down, making people avoid their gazes.
Qingfeng Li retrieved the Thunder Chant and released Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, Treasure-Seeking Mouse, Linglong Saintess, Clear-wood Saintess, and Blood Sea Saint from the defensive light veil.
The Clear-wood Saintess exclaimed first and surprise filled her delicate and pretty face. She then said, “I had never thought that I would be able to see the Thunder Immortal Palace and visit it! I feel like I’m dreaming!”
The Blood Sea Saint and Linglong Saintess nodded at the side. If they did not have Qingfeng Li’s help, then it would be impossible for them to come here.
Everything became real now. They were able to see the palace that the Thunder Immortal used to live in a million years ago.
Qingfeng Li, the Blood Immortal, and the others stood in front of the Thunder Immortal Palace. While they were thinking about how they could enter the Thunder Immortal Palace, danger slowly approached them without anyone noticing.
Qingfeng Li thought that it would take another hour for the sect master and elder from the saint sects to arrive at the Fallen Immortal Arena.
However, Qingfeng Li underestimated them.
They were all half-immortals, and they carried the immortal energy. Therefore, every single one of them was powerful, they could cross the universe and enter space tunnels.
With one step, they could go from one planet to another.
Even though they were billions of kilometers away from the Fallen Immortal Arena, they arrived outside within an hour.
The sect master of the Five Elements Saint Sect Tianxing Ming arrived first. His one step could cover a distance of almost a million meters. He was someone who had the power to cross the void, and support the sky and ground.
The senior elder of the Gravity Saint Sect Sky Rock Elder arrived right after Tianxing Ming. He was almost a million meters tall. He carried a planet with his hand and chased after the moon and stars.
After they arrived at the Fallen Immortal Arena, their bodies started to shrink to about two meters.
Even though the Sky Rock Elder had lived for almost a billion years, he did not look old. His body seemed healthy, and his back was straight. He still looked energetic and as sharp as a tiger or a bear.
This was the benefit of being a half immortal. First, one could extend their lives, and they would live for at least five hundred thousand years to a million years.
Second, their bodies would not change, unlike the self-cultivators in the human world, who would have their backs bent, their hair falling off, and their mustache turning white after they became old.
The Sky Rock Elder looked at Tianxing Ming who stood not very far away from himself, and said, “Sect Master Ming, you came to the Fallen Immortal Arena too? Are you here for your disciple, the Bright-moon Saintess?”
