Chapter 4741

The Myriad Thunder Continent, located in the Green Plum Immortal Domain, is perpetually shrouded in lightning and thunder, making it the most perilous region in the domain. Even Grand Luo Golden Immortals risk falling there.

Deep within the Myriad Thunder Continent lay a vast mountain range stretching for millions upon millions of miles, with peaks rising and falling, and ancient trees reaching into the sky.

A patrol of cultivators was on duty. Their physique was slightly larger than that of humans, with silver hair and faint, barely noticeable small horns protruding from their foreheads. Their eyes were silvery-white.

Silver patterns, naturally formed, adorned their arms.

They were the Azure Thunder Clan!

Suddenly, the sky became overcast with dark clouds, and lightning flashed with thunder. Tens of thousands of celestial lightning bolts tore across the heavens with immense power.

"Who dares trespass into the Azure Thunder Mountains?"

A majestic male voice resounded from the horizon.

As soon as the words fell, a silver lightning bolt illuminated the sky, and a corpulent old man in silver robes appeared. His aura indicated a cultivation level of late Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

"I am Cang Lei Zi!"

A calm male voice rang out.

Immediately after, a tall young man in a silver robe materialized in the void. With silver hair and silver eyes, his appearance differed from that of the Azure Thunder Clan, and his aura was unfathomable.

"What! Cang Lei Zi! Who exactly are you? How dare you impersonate our ancestor?"

The silver-robed old man's expression turned cold, his face filled with murderous intent.

"Have Lei Yuan Zi and the others come out."

Cang Lei Zi's voice was calm, conveying an undeniable sense of authority.

A golden lightning glow appeared, and a curvaceous woman in a golden dress emerged. Her aura indicated the cultivation level of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal.

"The Grand Elder has already perished at the hands of a Chaos Beast. I am Cang Yue, the current Grand Elder of the Azure Thunder Clan. Senior, are you truly our ancestor?"

Cang Lei Zi's lips moved slightly as he transmitted a message to Cang Yue.

Cang Yue flew before Cang Lei Zi, knelt down, and said, "Welcome home, ancestor. After all these years, we have finally awaited your return."

"Are you the only Grand Luo Golden Immortal left in the clan?"

Cang Lei Zi asked, puzzled.

"That's right! After that battle, our clan suffered heavy casualties from the Chaos Beasts' retaliation. We have waited for hundreds of millions of years, and finally, our ancestor has returned."

Cang Yue's expression was filled with excitement.

After every major war where Chaos Beasts emerged victorious, the factions led by Dao Ancestors who resisted them faced retaliation from the Chaos Beasts.

Humans fared better; with their strong reproductive capabilities, given enough time, they could quickly grow and flourish. Other races, whose reproductive abilities couldn't compare to humans, recovered much more slowly.

The silver-robed old man and the others descended and knelt on the ground, choking back tears as they said, "Welcome home, ancestor."

"Rest assured! With my return, our Azure Thunder Clan will prosper once more."

Cang Lei Zi declared in a deep voice, filled with confidence.

"Ancestor, where have you been all these years?"

Cang Yue asked.

"Cultivating! It was no easy feat for me to survive into this present age. But let's not dwell on that. Distribute these resources to cultivate more masters, which will help us prepare for the next great war. I have a premonition that it's not far off. If we fail again, our situation will become even more dire."

Cang Lei Zi flicked his sleeve, and a silver storage bracelet flew out towards Cang Yue.

"Yes, ancestor."

Cang Yue affirmed, accepting the silver storage bracelet with both hands.

Chaos Continent, Green Lotus Immortal Island.

At Hundred Spirits Peak, Wang Qingling, Wang Qingbai, and Wang Qingxiao sat in a green stone pavilion, conversing.

Upon their return, they handed over most of their acquisitions to Wang Tunian, for him to pass on to Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan. These included defensive mutated Primordial Spirit Treasures, Fifth-Tier Immortal Talismans, Fifth-Tier Immortal Arrays, and Fifth-Tier Immortal Materials.

With these items, Wang Changsheng should be able to open a second fundamental law, further enhancing his strength.

Wang Changsheng could refine the Fifth-Tier Immortal Materials into the hides of Dao Ancestor-level Chaos Beasts. The resulting Chaos Armor would undoubtedly have stronger defensive capabilities, making it easier for Wang Qingling and others to attempt breakthroughs to the Dao Ancestor realm.

"This time, we obtained two ten-colored Chaos Beast core crystals from the Grand Luo Golden Immortal stage. I can refine them into immortal pills that enhance immortal power. If Yingjie, Hongxue, and Qingcheng take them, they can save a significant amount of arduous cultivation time and advance to the late stage more quickly."

Wang Qingbai said with a smile.

"They went out on business and haven't returned yet. By the time they come back, Qingbai will probably have already refined the pills."

Wang Qingxiao said.

While they were away, Wang Yingjie, Wang Mengbin, and Ye Haitang had gone out on business. It was said that there was a several-hundred-million-year-old immortal wood in a certain heavily restricted location, and they used the Ruyi Gate to travel there to search for it.

Wang Qingbai nodded and said, "That's certainly not a problem! This time, we acquired five immortal pills for breaking through to the Dao Ancestor realm. In the future, when we reach Grand Perfection, we can take these immortal pills to attempt a breakthrough to the Dao Ancestor realm."

"If we can advance to the Dao Ancestor realm, our family's strength will become even greater."

Wang Qingling's face showed a look of yearning.

After a brief chat, Wang Qingbai bid farewell and left to refine pills.

Wang Qingling took out a green communication disk, cast a spell, and said, "Qiuting, please come to Hundred Spirits Peak. We've acquired a batch of ancient texts that record many events from the Chaos Era, which will be helpful for your research into that period of history."

"Alright, Tenth Aunt, I'll be right there."

Wang Qiuting assented.

Green Lotus Immortal Domain, Green Lotus Sea Region, Dongli Island.

A tall, slender young man in a green shirt stood guard beside a Flying Immortal Platform, his eyes slightly closed.

The Flying Immortal Platform suddenly vibrated, and an immensely thick beam of spiritual light shot skyward.

The green-shirted youth opened his eyes, quickly stood up, and looked towards the Flying Immortal Platform.

The spiritual light dissipated, revealing a handsome young man in a golden robe. The golden-robed youth had long ears and a small nose, and his eyes were golden, clearly indicating he was not human.

"My name is Wang Yunqing. This is our Wang family's territory. From which realm did you ascend, fellow cultivator?"

"I am Yang Feng! I ascended from the Taiyang Realm. May I ask where this is?"

The golden-robed youth asked courteously.

"How do you know the language of the Immortal Realm?"

Wang Yunqing asked, puzzled.

"Early in my cultivation, I acquired a jade slip in an ancient cultivator's cave dwelling that introduced the language of immortals."

Wang Yunqing suddenly understood. It was not uncommon for cultivators from the lower realms to know the Immortal Realm's language, as many major powers in the lower realms had backing in the Immortal Realm.

"This is the Green Lotus Sea Region within the Green Lotus Immortal Domain, and it is the territory of our Dao Clan Wang family."

Wang Yunqing's face was filled with pride.

"The Dao Clan Wang family?"

Yang Feng's face showed confusion.

"Our family has two Dao Ancestors who attained Dao through supreme laws. Never mind, that's too far-fetched for you. Come with me! You'll undergo an examination on Green Lotus Island. If your background is clear, you can join our Wang family."

Wang Yunqing said.

"Alright, then I'll trouble Fellow Daoist Wang. By the way, are the two Dao Ancestors also on Green Lotus Island? May I be able to meet a Dao Ancestor?"

Yang Feng asked curiously.

"Are you kidding? It'd be good enough if you could even meet an elder. You're just a True Immortal. While there are many benefits to joining our Wang family, if you want to meet our ancestors, you'll have to wait until you've cultivated to the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm."

Wang Yunqing said.

Yang Feng nodded and followed Wang Yunqing away.
