This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable

But the Lightning Avoidance Armor, being only of Spiritual Artifact quality, couldn't resist such immense thunderous might and was instantly blasted into powder.

The residual force of the exploding Thunder Ball didn't diminish, continuing to bombard the Green Wood Spirit Light emitted by the Green Wood Bead.

Fortunately, as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. This Middle Grade Earthly Artifact quality Green Wood Bead was still barely able to withstand the power of the thunderous explosion at this moment.

However, Lu Qingshan had already noticed that with the current force of the thunder, even the Green Wood Bead wouldn't last very long.

But at this moment, what he cared most about was not these issues.

Because he had discovered that this so-called erratic thunderous outburst... actually had signs to it.

At the time of the thunderous fury, the vitality within the earth also intensified considerably!

"The might of this thunder is actually related to vitality, the more intense the vitality, the more fierce the thunder..." Lu Qingshan muttered to himself: "But, these fluctuations of vitality keep changing in strength, what is influencing them?"

This Thunder Forbidden Zone became ever more mysterious.

Lu Qingshan had initially thought it was just a breeding ground for the Life Thunder Fruit, but now it seemed far from simple.

Indeed, if one does not participate personally, the information gathered through hearsay is always just the tip of the iceberg.

Lu Qingshan thought to himself.

In the background introduction of the mission in his previous life, aside from the mention of the Life Thunder Fruit attracting a great demon to a deadly battle, leading to a blood disaster, there was no further detail.

Looking at it this way, it seems that this mission should also contain a hidden plotline.

Lu Qingshan didn't choose to retreat. Seeing a vast expanse of thunder light roaming ahead, intimidating in might, a thought crossed his mind, and he took out another set of twelve Array Flag Magic Artifacts from his Storage Ring.

With a flick of his finger, the twelve small Array Flags flew out, rotating around his body.

The constant barrage of thunderous lightning, as if encountering an impenetrable wall, bombarded the Array formed by the Array Flags and immediately disappeared without a trace.

The Spirit-Nullifying Array, an excellent defensive formation.

With the power of the Array Flag Magic Artifacts and the Green Wood Bead, Lu Qingshan braved the force of the thunder, continuing forward.

After a quarter of an hour.

Lu Qingshan felt a slight movement within.

Because he sensed that the intense vitality that had suddenly risen within the earth had now suddenly faded, returning to its previous state.

That meant that the violent thunder was finally about to settle down.

Sure enough, the moment the vitality faded, the vast expanse of thunder light also dimmed, and its power greatly diminished.

Lu Qingshan let out a slight breath of relief.

This burst of the thunder tide had only lasted for three quarters of an hour; his luck wasn't too bad.

He set a bottom line for himself: If the consumption of Spiritual Power in his body exceeded forty percent, then he would immediately return.

If the thunder continued to be so fierce, he would soon have to choose to give up.

Lu Qingshan took a Pill to restore Spiritual Energy from his Storage Ring and consumed it, keeping his condition optimal, and without any pause, he continued along the cracks in the valley. Discover stories at My Virtual Library Empire

Just how deep this Thunder Forbidden Zone was, and from where this postnatal thunder originated, he did not know. For now, he could only take it one step at a time.

In the end, should it prove to be unmanageable, he still had one last resort:

Give up the Life Thunder Fruit and return to convey the news of this Life Thunder Fruit to the Sword Sect, letting the Great Sword Cultivators from the sect claim it.

The value of the Life Thunder Fruit, even if it was just one unripe Life Thunder Fruit, was sufficient for the Great Sword Cultivators of the Sword Sect to take action!

Only by then, the Life Thunder Fruit would be none of his concern; at most, he would be compensated with some Spirit Stones as a reward.

...

After walking another half an hour in the Duke of Thunder Pond, Lu Qingshan suddenly narrowed his eyes, observing the ground ahead with great care and caution.

Within the earth in front of him, he discovered a faint and unusual fluctuation of vitality — hidden beneath the soil, amidst the rushing thunder snakes, barely perceptible.

If he hadn't become exquisitely sensitive to vitality after comprehending the Immortal True Intent, he would have truly been unable to detect it.
