Chapter 476: Thunder Emperor Li Lei

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Di Jiu was only a seventh-stage Immortal Supremacy. He would not foolishly fight with seven to eight level-nine void demon beasts even though he had set up a pile of Nomological Array flags in the surrounding space.

He had gone there mainly to find Qu Hen and Chen Zishun and then help deal with this Beast Tide.

The Thunder Court Immortal Continent was not the Square Immortal Continent. Di Jiu did not have that kind of selfless mindset, so he would not sacrifice himself to save the Major Immortal Continent.

He wanted to help the Square Immortal Continent because he lived there. Even when he left in the future, his friends and the people around would ascend to the Square Immortal Continent. Why should he sacrifice himself for the Thunder Court Immortal Continent? Besides, the Thunder Court Immortal Continent’s Thunder Yang Sect had never gotten along with him.

Nomological Array flags were sealed by Di Jiu one by one, forming a Defense Array around him in a flash. Di Jiu immediately grabbed Black Fire with his Primeval Thunder Rock and fled from the beast group by using his Spiritual Force escape technique.

When Di Jiu landed on the ground, he was already on the edge of the Defense Array.

This was a level-nine Defense Immortal Array. Even though the Beast Tide kept attacking the array, it was also continuously restored so it was still a level-nine Defense Immortal Array.

Di Jiu charged into the Beast Tide with the Primeval Thunder Rock and Black Fire. The Thunder Court Immortal Continent cultivators within the Defense Array saw that clearly.

All the cultivators watched Di Jiu in shock. Where had he come from? He had actually dared to charge into the beast group? Even if a perfected Immortal Emperor charged in, he would probably die while facing such a terrifying beast group.

However, they were very soon stunned. The Thunder Rock under Di Jiu’s legs emitted endless thunder streaks and thunder showers as it attacked. He could be described as invincible while he was charging into the beast group.

When those seven to eight peak void demon beasts charged towards Di Jiu, the cultivators by his side felt their hearts jump in their throats.

There were so many peak demon beasts charging towards Di Jiu that no matter how powerful his thunder streaks were, they could not get rid of them all in one go. As long as one of them was not killed and charged into Di Jiu’s defense circle, it would be the death of him.

While everyone was wondering how Di Jiu was going to deal with these level-nine immortal demon beasts, he suddenly landed beside the Defense Immortal Array. Had he teleported?

“Don’t open the Defense Array…” A black-faced cultivator among the crowd shouted loudly when he saw Di Jiu rushing over. He was worried that the people by his side did not realize the severity of the situation and would immediately open the Defense Array for Di Jiu to come in.

He was sure that once there was a gap in the Defense Immortal Array, Di Jiu would not be the only one coming in.

In fact, even though some cultivators took pity on Di Jiu and wanted to let him in, they could not do so. They were only some cannon fodder guarding the front of the Defense Immortal Array. Since they were cannon fodder, how could there be any array flags to activate the Defense Immortal Array?

A moment later, everyone was stunned. They watched Di Jiu land in front of the Defense Array before he lifted his hands to form a few hand seals, thus creating a gap in the Defense Array. Di Jiu entered the Defense Array unruffled and the gap outside disappeared once again.

This Array Dao level…

If those demon beasts were this impressive, why would they still mend the Defense Immortal Array?

“Senior!” a limping Grand Zenith Immortal shouted at Di Jiu. This was the first time he had seen such an expert. He was sure that even if the Thunder Emperor was here, he would not be as terrifying as the young man in front of him.

Di Jiu nodded at the Grand Zenith Immortal and asked, “Where are the people who came to help from other places?”

Upon sensing that Di Jiu was not hard to talk with, the Grand Zenith Immortal relaxed even more and promptly replied, “They seem to have not arrived yet. The Thunder Court Immortal Continent seniors were in the conference hall, which is the place up ahead…”

He pointed to a hall ahead.

“Thank you.” Di Jiu was composed as he walked over. The cultivators behind watched him go over very slowly, as though he was worried that he would stamp the ants to death on his way.

Di Jiu naturally did not walk very slowly on purpose, as he was setting up Nomological Array flags along the way. It was different this time than it had been at the Brilliant Lake Palace. Even though his cultivation level was much higher than the previous time, the two experts, Zhong Ao and Yin Wushang, were not by his side.

…

In the hall in front of the Thunder Yang Sect large arrays were at least 50 cultivators who were sitting down. The weakest individual among them was an early-stage Immortal Emperor, while most of them were mid-stage and late-stage Immortal Emperors.

Sitting on the highest seat was a man who looked like thunder and lightning. A blue silk sash was tied on his head, and he emitted a formidable oppressive vibe, as if he would transform a sky full of thunder streaks in a moment.

That blue silk sash gave a hint of life to his remarkable aura.

He was the top expert of the Thunder Court Immortal Continent, the Thunder Yang Sect’s Sect Master, Li Lei.

Before Li Lei had appeared, everyone had already known how formidable he was and been aware of his cultivation level. He was between a sixth-stage and seventh-stage Immortal Emperor.

When Li Lei personally came out to take the lead and stop the void Beast Tide, everyone was clear about his real cultivation level. He had to be a perfected ninth-stage Immortal Emperor who even surpassed the existence of an Immortal Emperor.

“Nobody that we asked for help came, and more and more places within our Defense Arrays have been getting ripped apart. Those terrifying immortal demon beasts will swarm in sooner or later…” An old woman sighed, her tone carrying a hint of pessimism.

As a sixth-stage Immortal Emperor expert, she did not have to worry about being drowned by the Beast Tide. However, once the Beast Tide ripped apart the Defense Immortal Arrays, their home would be trampled to scraps. Her lifespan was almost up, so if the place where she entered reclusive cultivation was also destroyed, she could only die.

“He he… The few people who came to help experienced some baffling mishaps. I wouldn’t dare come to such a place either.” A big man chuckled, his tone sounding somewhat disdainful.

“Shan Xing, what do you mean?” Li Lei’s face sank. “Did you think that after you became a Great Immortal Emperor, nobody could do anything to you anymore?”

“Ha ha…” Shan Xing laughed out loud and said coldly, “My cultivation level is nothing. I’m still far from being compared to the Demonic Clothing Immortal Continent’s five Great Immortal Emperors, let alone to the Thunder Emperor. It’s a pity that we couldn’t invite the five Great Immortal Emperors. Plus, I only said the truth. Everyone can judge on their own. The Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City’s Elixir Association Guild Master, Qu Hen, and Deputy City Lord Chen Zishun came to help us with Zhong Ao. What did the Thunder Court Immortal Continent do?

He he… They planned to injure Zhong Ao seriously and flee first. Then, they used an excuse to arrest Qu Hen and Guild Master Chen Zishun. I don’t know why we still have to make a move on the allies who came to help us from 100 million miles away when the Thunder Court Immortal Continent is facing a life-and-death situation. My friend, Yong Zuocheng only said some just words. Where is he now?”

Bang! Li Lei banged the tea table in front of him and suddenly stood up. “Shan Xing, you mean that I plotted against Yong Zuocheng? Then who allowed Zhong Ao to snatch the Thunder Court Immortal Continent’s treasure?”

Shan Xing was obviously pushing his luck. “Sect Master Li, everyone knows whether it was you. Insular Lord Yong said some just words and was sent out to block the Defense Array’s gap. We don’t know if he’s still alive after entering the Beast Tide. We have many Immortal Emperors in the Thunder Court Immortal Continent but very few Great Immortal Emperors. Please tell me, Sect Master Li, how many Immortal Emperors and Great Immortal Emperors have died during the Beast Tide so far?

Daoist Zhong could leave because he was simply too formidable, even more formidable than some people expected. Three Immortal Emperors were chasing after him, so I naturally don’t have any way of knowing whether he has been killed…”

Just as Shan Xing thought Li Lei was going to make a move, Li Lei told the numerous Immortal Emperors with cupped fists instead, “The reason I, Li Lei, can sit here is not because I’m the Thunder Yang Sect’s Sect Master or because of my cultivation level. It’s because I would do everything for the Thunder Court Immortal Continent wholeheartedly. The Thunder Court Immortal Continent is currently facing the most terrifying void Beast Tide ever, so I only hope that everyone will work together and stop being suspicious of each other. A year ago, my cultivation partner, Kong Xiangxin, also died during the Beast Tide and I didn’t say anything…”

Shan Xing snorted. “Kong Xiangxin went to kill Daoist Zhong Ao. How is this related to the Beast Tide?”

“Ha ha ha ha…” Li Lei laughed frantically, but there was no smile in his eyes. He opened his hand and a Thunder Hammer appeared. “Shan Xing, you can insult me and doubt my sincere feelings for the Thunder Court Immortal Continent. However, you shouldn’t insult my cultivation partner. If I don’t kill you today, I’ll be letting her down.

When she died during the Beast Tide battle, she died protecting the Thunder Court Immortal Continent. I can endure not doing anything rash for the Thunder Court Immortal Continent, but she gave up her life for the Thunder Court Immortal Continent. Thus, I really can’t stand it when someone insults her. Everyone, I apologize but I have to kill him…”

“He he… I’m having goosebumps because of your words. Could you speak properly and stop trying to maintain your good name?” A voice was suddenly heard from the entrance, drawing everyone’s attention.

A youth in green who was pedaling on a piece of thunder rock and carrying a long saber on his back appeared in front of everyone.
