Black Rain 91

  In the blink of an eye, a white light ball and a yellow light ball fell onto the floating island one after another. Ye Qin's divine sense was shocked, and in the chaos, he didn't have time to hide inside the light shield, but instead landed in the crevices of the gray rock.

  On this floating island, the center is a vast flat land, but all around are rugged and undulating gray rocks. The narrow stone crevices between the gray rocks are almost everywhere. Thumb-sized light balls drilled into the crevices immediately disappeared without a trace.

  "Little rascal, where have you escaped to? Quickly roll out and show yourself to old man!"

  Nan Tianba flew all over the floating island's gray rock, searching for Ye Qin's whereabouts, but couldn't find any trace. He let out a loud cry and in annoyance threw a thorn into the gap between the rocks. The thorn hit the incredibly hard gray rock and exploded. This floating island's gray rock was also unknown what kind of thing it was, the thorn didn't even leave a mark on its surface.

  Nan Tian's aura was urgent, wanting to drill into the crevices of the gray rock to search, but hesitated. There were too many crevices and they were extremely narrow, if not careful, two primordial spirits might collide head-on, a narrow road encounter, it wasn't certain who would have the upper hand over Ye Qin.

  Ye Qin buried his head in the gray rock, drilling hundreds of feet away, shrinking into a deep stone seam to avoid light leakage, listening to Nan Tianba's loud shouting on the floating island above, but not going out.

  After resting for a short while, his consciousness gradually stabilized and he fully woke up, secretly sighing in relief. If not for the old ghost's earth spike colliding and triggering an explosion that wasn't powerful enough, he would have been knocked unconscious on the spot. If two fireballs had collided and exploded like this, he would have already turned to ashes.

  One misstep and the entire plan falls apart. It seems that to deal with the old ghost, I can only use the most powerful and fastest lightning strike technique. However, the preparation time for the lightning strike is a bit long, and it's easy to startle the old ghost.

  Ye Qin waited quietly, waiting for Lao Gui to fly far away before he began to accumulate his yuan qi and prepare to unleash the Thunder Strike Technique.

  After dozens of breaths, the Thunderbolt Technique finally finished gathering energy. A dark thundercloud the size of a palm appeared near Ye Qin, emitting a faint humming noise and wind that seemed to precede a storm.

  This thing is abnormally overbearing, and Ye Qin didn't dare to get too close. In order to condense this piece of dark thunder, his divine soul's light dimmed again, falling to the middle stage of the third layer of Qi Refining.

  "Old devil, I'm over here!"

  Ye Qin let out a loud shout.

  Nan Tianba was darting about on the floating island, and upon hearing the sound, he was overjoyed. He flew to the top of the gray rock where Ye Qin had shouted earlier, at an altitude of about one mile. He was experienced and cunning, knowing that Ye Qin's shout was intentional to lure him over, so he was extremely cautious and kept his distance. He used a sturdy earth shield to completely block himself from view, ensuring that he could withstand any magical attack. Twelve earthen spikes floated around him, ready to launch an attack at any moment.

  "Hey, you little brat! Stop hiding, it's no use! Come out and face your death! I'll eventually catch you and tear you to pieces. You dare to compete with me in magic? In your next life, remember not to be foolish!"

  "Alright, I'm coming out, but don't run away."

  Ye Qin emerged from the crevice of a gray rock, with a sly smile. A piece of dark cloud appeared with a loud rumble.

  Nan Tianba heard the strange noise, and with a puzzled expression, he peeked out from behind his earth shield, widening his eyes to see what kind of magic Ye Qin was casting. As soon as he saw that small piece of dark lightning clearly, he suddenly gasped, exclaiming in shock: "Thunderbolt Technique!"

  Its expression was terrifying and its primordial spirit trembled with fear.

  The Thunder Strike technique, in terms of power, is actually similar to the Fireball technique, or slightly higher. However, thunder has a natural restraining effect on evil demons and ghosts, which are the most feared by these wandering spirits without physical bodies. If you get hit by this thing, you won't die but will be severely injured. They would rather take a Wind Blade attack than touch this terrifying thing. However, Thunder-type magic is also the most difficult to master among all magic techniques, and only those who simultaneously possess Water, Fire Spirit Roots, or Thunder Variant Spirit Roots can learn it.

  Nan Tianba didn't dare to show off his earth shield's prowess again, nor did he want to stay and take a beating. More than ten sharp earth thorns shot towards Ye Qin, then without hesitation, he hid behind his earth shield and turned around to escape. His primordial spirit quickly flew into the gray mist in the sky, trying to get away.

  Ye Qin dodged the earth spear and chased after Nan Tianba, who had already prepared his Thunder Strike technique. At the same time, he shouted "Thunder Strike!" as he struck at the fleeing Nan Tianba.

  A dark lightning bolt, like a spark of flint, shot towards Nan Tian Ba with incredible speed and power. The thunderbolt's velocity was astonishing, its might even more so, striking through the earth shield in an instant and continuing to blast towards Nan Tian Ba.

  Nan Tian Ba felt a powerful destructive aura of thunderstorm approaching from behind, almost within a few meters, and his soul was greatly shocked. He didn't care about conserving his yuanqi anymore, crazily urging on his yuanqi, and cast another primary defensive spell that was even stronger than the Earth Shield Technique. With a loud roar:

  "Earth Shield Technique!"

  A brilliant yellow light enveloped its entire body, a thick defensive armor made of condensed yuanqi covered it in an instant, completely wrapping around its body like a small ball wearing a solid spherical armor, sealing it tightly without any gaps.

  It used a full level of primordial energy from the third layer of the Refining Qi period to cast this Earth Shield Technique, directly plummeting from the third layer of the Refining Qi period to the second layer. The Primordial Spirit was clad in a thick earth armor, greatly enhancing its defense while simultaneously greatly reducing its movement speed.

  "Boom!"

  Palm Thunderbolt chased after Southern Sky Overlord and exploded behind it.

  Nan Tian Ba was struck by Wu Lei's thunder, and the thick earthen armor was like encountering a massive force, cracking open with turtle-shell-like fissures. The earthen armor absorbed most of the damage from the thunder strike, but Nan Tian Ba's primordial spirit inside was still shaken by the intense impact of the thunder.

  Nan Tian Ba tumbled through the void for hundreds of feet, dazed and disoriented from the thunderclap. His confused mind subconsciously struggled to flee into the endless void, but the heavy earth armor severely hindered his speed.

  Ye Qin was overjoyed, he hadn't expected the lightning strike to have such a great effect on Yuanshen, it had actually directly blasted South Tianba's Yuanshen from the third layer of Lianqi to the second layer, and also shook South Tianyong into a daze. He quickly condensed fireballs and crazily smashed them at the gleaming Earth Armor Ball. Bang bang, the originally already cracked Earth Armor thoroughly collapsed, and South Tianba's Yuanshen was exposed from inside.

  Ye Qin immediately condensed three pale red wind blades one after another, shooting them at the yellow light ball that was fleeing blindly into the gray mist.

  Three gusts of wind blades whizzed by.

  The primordial spirit of Nan Tianba, the number one hero of the Nan family in Pingzhou, was suddenly cut into eight pieces.

  During the Qi Refining stage, a cultivator only has one Yuan Shen. If the Yuan Shen is forcibly split into two, then only one of them can maintain its divine sense and remain as a Yuan Shen, while the other will become a purely unconscious Yuan Qi energy body that will slowly dissipate over time.

  Nan Tian Bao's yuan Shen was cut into eight pieces, but his main god consciousness could only exist in one small piece of yuan Shen. He was rolling around in pain, but his divine consciousness had been struck by a sharp attack and was no longer clear, unable to make any conscious actions. The remaining seven fragments all became purely unconscious yuan Qi.

  Ye Qin conjured up a small fireball and threw it at the primordial spirit that was still writhing in agony. The scorching flames enveloped the small piece of primordial spirit, igniting it, and amidst the fierce blaze, the primordial spirit let out a pained squeak before dissipating into a wisp of blue smoke.

  Ye Qin floated in mid-air, gazing at the few wisps of soul that had been burned into a green smoke, and let out a long sigh. To get rid of Nan Tian Xiong, he had spent countless thoughts and efforts, consuming a large amount of his vital energy.

  Nan Tian Ba was finally taken down, and his oppression has also been lifted.

  Nan Tian Ba's primordial spirit was cut into eight pieces, one of which was burned, leaving seven pieces still drifting in the air. These pieces began to slowly disintegrate, turning into tiny pure yellow lights and drifted towards a distant floating island.

  The Purple Mansion floated in the endless gray mist of the void, looking extremely majestic, like a floating lighthouse, very eye-catching. And there was a mysterious attraction that attracted these yellow rays of light. These rays of light illuminated the entire floating island into a dazzling yellow color.

  Ye Qin was very interested, chasing after these yuanqi fragments and sparks, returned to the floating island. After watching for a while, he felt that although these sparks looked good floating in the sky, they were not practical, and it would be better to swallow them all.

  He shuttled back and forth in the sky of the floating island, absorbing and devouring all the scattered spiritual energy fragments and light that had already lost their divine consciousness in the sky. Not only did it make up for the consumption of spiritual energy when casting spells, but also allowed him to rush from the middle stage of the third layer of the Refining Qi period to the initial stage of the fourth layer of the Refining Qi period in one breath.

  Nantian Ba's original spirit, filled with resentment, floated by, "Lunchbox... finally freed, no longer suffering at the hands of Xiao Yezi ~, revealing a little secret, actually... I've always wanted to beat up Xiao Yezi and stomp on him a few times, but he has Lao Da watching over him, sigh, the helplessness of us supporting characters.
