Chapter 263: Chapter 263 Thunder Eagle
.net
In the spacious underground chamber, Wang Chen stood up tall, stretching his limbs.
The joints all over his body made a crisp crackling sound, muscles bulging as his qi-blood boiled. Just opened, his dark eyes flashed with lightning, radiating a captivating and potent breath!
Add points!
1,000 points of Human Virtue disappeared as the Five Suns Qian Thunder instantly broke through the final bottleneck, soaring to Great Perfection level!
Dwelling in the underground of Wind-Thunder Valley during this period, Wang Chen had devoted most of his time to cultivating this advanced qi cultivation spell, and now he had finally reaped the richest fruit.
He reached out with a grasping motion, and the Wind Thunder Sword suddenly appeared in his hand.
When Wang Chen stimulated the Great Perfection level Five Suns Qian Thunder, the second-tier Spirit Sword suddenly emitted dazzling thunder light.
With the sword in hand, Wang Chen could feel its true power being fully unleashed.
Not only that, but this Flying Sword also resonated mysteriously with the Thunder Power filling the chamber!
Wind-Thunder Valley truly was the perfect fit for the Wind Thunder Sword.
Wang Chen speculated that the original owner of the Wind Thunder Sword, Liu Yingxiu, must have come to Wind-Thunder Valley primarily to utilize its special environment to refine the Spirit Sword.
Unfortunately, Wang Chen now couldn\'t show himself in the light, let alone snatch food from the mouths of the Five Peaks Sect.
He could only soak up some of the benefits by digging up Thunderstones underground.
Then he should dig up more!
Wang Chen put away the Wind Thunder Sword and swapped to the Crane-beak Hoe.
During the period when he cultivated Five Suns Qian Thunder, he had dug up several dozen Thunderstones, large and small.
He was already quite experienced.
Following a newly excavated tunnel, Wang Chen kept digging forward.
Before long, a new Thunderstone presented itself in front of him.
But this time, Wang Chen didn\'t break through the rocky shell, instead he removed the soil surrounding the Thunderstone, peeling it out completely.
Having been out for so long, it was about time to head back.
Though the environment here was quite suitable for practicing Thunder Magic, staying too long could affect the balance of the Five Elements.
And that wasn\'t good for Wang Chen, who mainly practiced the Five Elements Skill.
The key point was that his cultivation of Five Suns Qian Thunder had peaked, and he had achieved his most important goal.
Staying any longer wouldn\'t make much sense.
However, before leaving, Wang Chen planned to dig up more Thunderstones to take back with him.
To refine the Wind Thunder Sword.
What Wang Chen hadn\'t expected was that when he put the newly dug Thunderstone into the Storage Bag, the bag suddenly burst, and the Thunderstone fell out again!
Hm?
Wang Chen thought this Storage Bag had run out of durability, so he took out a new one.
If he didn\'t have much of anything else, he certainly had a lot of Storage Bags.
For this tunneling into Wind-Thunder Valley, he had specially prepared a dozen or so to carry with him, losing one was no issue at all.
But the second Storage Bag also ripped open!
This time, Wang Chen realized that Thunderstones couldn\'t be placed into Storage Bags or they would damage them.
His plan had barely begun when it went bankrupt!
Damn!
Wang Chen swung the Crane-beak Hoe, smashing it down onto the Thunderstone.
If he couldn\'t take them with him, he\'d use what he could right there, refining the Wind Thunder Sword anew before leaving wouldn\'t be too late.
Boom!
The moment the rock shell cracked open, the entire underground chamber suddenly shook violently, and countless clumps of soil and rock fell from above.
Even though these falling rocks and soil couldn\'t harm him in the slightest, a strong sense of crisis instantly surged in Wang Chen\'s heart.
Without any hesitation, he flashed back, retreating as quickly as he could from the chamber.
Then, he swooped forward along the long tunnel!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The vibrations from the surface came one after another, each more intense than the last.
If the tunnel dug by Wang Chen had not been reinforced with the Mudstone Technique at the Great Perfection level, it would have probably collapsed by now, burying him completely underground.
When Wang Chen emerged from the tunnel, he returned to the surface he had not seen for a long time.
He immediately saw in the distance above Wind-Thunder Valley, a giant azure-black eagle was being besieged by a large number of cultivators!
The giant eagle was surrounded by electric arcs, its flapping wings stirring up fierce winds, intercepting a multitude of spells aimed at it while spitting out thunderballs that bombed the valley below.
A single thunderball could cause the ground to quake and mountains to shake.
A high-tier spirit beast!
Even from a great distance, Wang Chen could feel the astonishing might of the giant eagle.
Although Wang Chen was very curious and unclear how the people of Five Peaks Mountain had provoked this creature,
he had no intention of joining the bustle and instead retreated to a safer place.
Then, he took out a telescope from his Storage Bag to observe the battle.
This telescope was something Wang Chen had made himself during his spare time; the most important component, the lens, was crafted from crystal, and the body was custom-made.
Although it couldn\'t compare with modern products from his previous life, its basic telescopic function was quite good.
With the help of the telescope, Wang Chen could clearly see the scene of the Five Peaks Sect cultivators battling the Thunder Eagle.
There were over a hundred Five Peaks Sect cultivators participating in the besiege of the Thunder Eagle, riding on Flying Artifacts, surrounding the giant eagle completely, and exerting themselves to cast various spells.
However, the Thunder Eagle completely ignored their attacks, continuously spitting out thunderballs toward the valley.
Due to the obstruction of the mountains, Wang Chen couldn\'t see the scene within Wind-Thunder Valley.
But judging by the Thunder Eagle\'s posture, it was clearly targeting something important, displaying a do-or-die attitude.
"Evil beast, die!"
At that moment, an angry voice suddenly rang out.
A fierce Sword Light shot up into the sky, aiming straight for the giant eagle high above.
Because of the distance, Wang Chen actually saw the Sword Light before he heard the sound.
The Thunder Eagle seemed to have been prepared, suddenly flashing and instantly moving ten zhang away.
Barely dodging the strike.
"Screech~"
The next moment, it let out a piercing cry, its wings spinning and whipping up a storm, with blue-purple thunderbolts raining down into Wind-Thunder Valley like a torrential downpour.
At the same time, a huge net of lightning unfolded around the Thunder Eagle.
Many of the Five Peaks Sect cultivators besieging it were caught off guard by the lightning net and immediately screamed as they fell from the sky.
A few were directly electrocuted into charred corpses!
Impressive!
Wang Chen reckoned that if he were to face this Thunder Eagle himself, he would likely have to sneak a Flying Sword attack on it and then immediately flee, as a direct confrontation would mean getting thoroughly trounced.
Under such dense and violent thunderous strikes, the cultivator in the valley could no longer hide.
Another Sword Light flew up.
But it fled in the southwest direction!
So it was, the esteemed Purple Mansion actually abandoned a large group of disciples and fled for their life!
The Thunder Eagle let out a cry and chased after the Purple Mansion cultivator fleeing in that direction.
Who knows what deep hatred and grievance existed between them!
Taking this opportunity, those surviving Five Peaks Sect cultivators scattered and fled.
Among them, the direction in which several cultivators were retreating happened to be where Wang Chen was hiding!
