C1457 The Result
When such an enormous amount of lightning energy is compounded, its power significantly exceeds that of the peak Emperor Level, particularly at its core. It possesses the ability to obliterate a peak Emperor Level warrior in an instant. If not for Lin Xuan's Thunder God's Body, a special constitution that resonates with this attribute and can mitigate and absorb the energy, even a Half-level Emperor physique would struggle to endure for long. Without lingering, it poses little threat to Half-level Emperor experts, as the quantity is vast but the quality is not as profound.
In a short time, Lin Xuan has come to understand its essence. On the Dongyuan Continent, it is indeed a venerable treasure for the Thunder Yang Pavilion, generation after generation. However, its utility is not as significant as Lin Xuan had envisioned. It still yields some benefit at Lin Xuan's current level. Even if it doesn't enhance his strength, a slight repair to his Thunder God's Body would noticeably improve his aptitude. Consequently, he could accelerate his progress in many other areas, reaping numerous advantages. It's an opportunity not to be missed.
Time always slips away silently. Lin Xuan continues to voraciously consume the pure lightning energy within this colossal mountain. Initially, his Thunder God's Body instinctively detected the energy. Later, Lin Xuan took a more active role, and the connection was no longer just through a chain of lightning.
Lin Xuan charged straight into the heart of the lightning mountain and vanished from sight. This mountain had stood for countless years as the treasured legacy of the Thunder Yang Pavilion. The Pavilion's practices in cultivation, Body Refining, Spell Formation, and other areas all depended on it. Yet, no one had ever managed to truly enter the lightning mountain. Instead, they utilized alternative means, such as Spirit Weapons and Spell Formations, to harness and exploit the mountain's energy. The energy within was too ferocious and potent for anyone to withstand, even for those martial artists whose bodies were attuned to the Lightning attribute. To attempt such a feat would mean certain death, their bodies torn apart and reduced to nothingness.
The Thunder Yang Pavilion had witnessed enough cautionary tales to last a lifetime. However, Lin Xuan had now boldly stepped into the lightning mountain. And strangely, no one suspected that he would encounter any trouble. The reason was simple: the overwhelming pressure that had always surrounded the mountain remained unchanged. It had not dissipated or lessened with Lin Xuan's entry; rather, it intensified, becoming even more formidable and oppressive, rendering everyone else immobile. The Vitality and Pill Essence within them came to a standstill, as if time and space themselves had paused. The only thing that filled this space was the thunderous roar emanating from the mountain, underscoring the vast chasm between them.
They had never imagined that such a formidable martial artist could emerge in their time, one who could dominate the entire Dongyuan Continent. And to think that he was still growing stronger filled them with a sense of hopelessness.
The Emperor Level High-grade Flying Ship had also descended, coming to rest on the ground. Nearby, figures lay prostrate, having just emerged from the Flying Ship in a futile attempt to dissuade the Thunder Yang Pavilion's elders, including Shi Lezian and his companions. Now, they too were overpowered, paralyzed except for their consciousness and the ability to move their eyes. They watched as their senior brothers and fellow disciples were similarly subdued by the Pavilion's higher-ups. Yet, there was a glimmer of relief in their eyes. Their goal had been met. As long as the Pavilion's leaders did not interfere with Lin Xuan's actions and provoke his ire, the Thunder Yang Pavilion might just have secured its survival.
After this ordeal...
It's safe to assume that the senior brothers and fellow disciples are now well aware that the rumors they heard about Lin Xuan contained no falsehoods.
Confronted by an unyielding force like Lin Xuan, the Thunder Yang Pavilion stood no chance.
To safeguard themselves, their kin, and the entirety of the Thunder Yang Pavilion, they absolutely could not afford to cross Lin Xuan.
Take, for example, the Thunder Mountain, the most treasured legacy of the Thunder Yang Pavilion, passed down through generations.
Its significance was immense, influencing every facet of the martial artists within the Pavilion.
But under the current circumstances, it was no longer defensible.
They could clearly discern Lin Xuan's intentions.
Evidently, Lin Xuan specialized in lightning-based techniques.
He was harnessing the energy of the Thunder Mountain to fortify himself.
Despite the Thunder Mountain's towering presence, thousands of feet tall with awe-inspiring power, it had withstood countless uses over the years without diminishing.
But that resilience was specific to the Thunder Yang Pavilion.
The Thunder Mountain was more than just a peak; it was a place of wonder, capable of self-regeneration.
It was an integral part of Leiyun State.
Provided its core remained unharmed, it could naturally rejuvenate.
Such was the way of the Thunder Yang Pavilion.
The stature and depth of the Thunder Mountain were even half a level above the Pavilion itself.
Lin Xuan, however, was in a league of his own.
He was of a caliber that could dominate the entire Dongyuan Continent.
Moreover, his unique constitution, the Lightning Divine Body, perfectly complemented his abilities, placing him a notch above even the Thunder Mountain.
Against Lin Xuan, the Thunder Mountain could no longer maintain its cycle of preservation and regeneration as before.
Instead, Lin Xuan forcibly extracted and consumed its most quintessential and pure source energy.
Lin Xuan's overwhelming power exceeded their wildest imaginations.
They were uncertain whether Lin Xuan's cultivation was increasing or if he was simply unveiling his inherent power.
Yet, they could distinctly perceive the diminishing might of the thousand-foot Thunder Mountain.
This decline was not temporary.
It was substantial and irreversible.
The inevitable outcome was clear.
Even if the Thunder Mountain remained, having been largely consumed by Lin Xuan, its former glory and strength were irretrievably lost.
The influence of the Thunder Yang Pavilion had significantly diminished from what it once was.
It was essentially rendered powerless.
This fate was sealed and inevitable.
With no other options, the Thunder Yang Pavilion had to passively accept its new reality.
Faced with an overwhelming disparity in strength, every individual and power had no choice but to bow down.
The Thunder Yang Pavilion was forced to come to terms with the loss of its treasured legacy.
Shi Lezian, for one, was quite pleased with this development.
Consequently, Lin Xuan and the Thunder Yang Pavilion's leadership no longer had significant conflicts of interest.
Without any shared objectives or goals, it seemed unlikely that the senior members would foolishly seek retribution against Lin Xuan.
Only those lacking wisdom would engage in such self-destructive behavior.
Should anyone prove to be that irrational, they could be readily abandoned.
There was no point in preserving such individuals, only to have them become a liability later on.
