Chapter 78 - The Worship of Ten Thousand
Chapter 78: The Worship of Ten Thousand Beasts, Thunder Fire Lightning Whip
Translation
The others could not help but think of the many Thunder Spirit Immortal Stones that Bai Haoyu had added, as well as the last human-shaped Thunder Spirit Immortal Stone. It must have contained an enormous amount of lightning attribute energy.
“I didn’t expect that Bai Haoyu would be able to cause such a commotion. It seems that the thing he refined is about to be born.”
It was the same as pill refining. Refining a high-level item would cause such a huge commotion. Looking at the lightning dragon hovering in mid-air, it was so lifelike that it looked no different from a real dragon. Everyone could not help but exclaim in admiration.
“I wonder what Bai Haoyu is refining.”
“I originally thought that Ou Yechen would be the first to succeed. I didn’t expect it to be Bai Haoyu.”
“You can’t say that. There’s no rule that the first to succeed is the most powerful. I think Ou Yechen will be the best.”
“That’s right. Furthermore, Bai Haoyu relies on most of the heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Which of those materials isn’t powerful and extremely precious? In terms of true strength, Ou Yechen is more powerful.”
“Hehe, you’re speaking as if Ou Yechen didn’t use the Heaven and Earth Smelting Furnace. He’s also using the power of a lot of external things.”
Before the results of the competition were out, Ou Yechen and Bai Haoyu’s supporters had already started quarreling. Everyone had different views. Some thought that Bai Haoyu was powerful. After all, only high-grade materials could make good Magic Artifacts and weapons.
Some thought that Ou Yechen was the true successor of his ancestors and deserved to be number one in weapon refinement. All in all, the people in the competition were focused on weapon refinement, and the people outside were not idle either.
Just as everyone was quarreling, the sky above them rumbled. Countless lightning bolts transformed into beasts and arrived above Bai Haoyu. It was as if ten thousand beasts were worshipping him, and all of them lowered their arrogant heads.
The scene was extremely shocking. Countless violet beams of light poured into the furnace, and it looked like a whale swallowing everything it touched. As it breathed, lightning flashed, and the spiritual energy in the furnace reached its peak.
“We’re almost there!”
Everyone’s hearts were hanging in their throats.
All ten thousand beasts cried out in unison! It was so deafening that it sounded like they were celebrating its birth.
It was rumored that if all living things in the world wanted to achieve true results, they would have to experience the punishment of Heavenly Lightning. However, this Thunder Spirit Immortal Stone was accidentally contaminated with karma. Perhaps the Heavenly Lightning had accidentally struck it, causing it to be contaminated with its power. Together with the leaked spiritual energy, it seized the secrets of the Heavens and gave birth to a human form.
At the same time, it also recorded the lives under Heavenly Lightning. It was no wonder that when the spiritual energy gathered, it was able to cause such a strange phenomenon.
A dark purple figure slowly appeared in mid-air. Like a bolt of lightning, it suddenly lit up the gray sky, blinding everyone’s eyes.
Countless lightning and fire surrounded it, like stars surrounding the moon. A whip appeared in everyone’s line of sight. The light around its body shone so brightly that it seemed to leave deep marks in the sky. Countless bolts of lightning gathered at this moment.
Shockingly, there were traces of lightning on the handle of the whip. At the top of the whip was a blue stone that looked like a baby. It looked like a miniature version of the human-shaped Thunder Spirit Immortal Stone from before.
However, this time, its eyes were half-open, as if it had really come to life.
When everyone saw this, they were incredulous. “How can this Thunder Spirit Immortal Stone be so well-preserved?! Could it be that Bai Haoyu didn’t use it just now?”
However, its body had indeed shrunk by more than half. Rather than saying that it had shrunk, it was more accurate to say that it had been condensed into its essence. It had fused with the Divine Whip, unleashing even more powerful spiritual power than before.
“It can be seen that the spiritual intelligence of this Thunder Spirit Immortal Stone has not been completely wiped out. I believe that it won’t be long before it will be nourished by spiritual energy, and it will be able to give birth to a Divine Embryo that is even more powerful than before.”
“Bai Haoyu’s forging technique is simply superb. Even in such a situation, the foundation of the Immortal Stone hasn’t been destroyed. It’s enough to show how high his skill in weapon refinement is.”
Everyone understood the reasoning behind this and gasped in amazement. It turned out that Bai Haoyu had not planned to use up this Thunder Spirit Immortal Stone in the first place. Instead, he had done his best to preserve it.
After all, a human-shaped Thunder Spirit Immortal Stone had never been seen before. Bai Haoyu naturally would not recklessly waste it. He would preserve its foundation and let it become the spirit of the weapon. It could be said that he was using it to its fullest potential.
It sounded simple, but it was extremely difficult to do. Furthermore, it required superb techniques. If there was even the slightest mistake, it was very likely that it would become problematic.
However, from the final result, Bai Haoyu had made the right move! In the end, the two fused perfectly, giving the magical item infinite room to grow.
When the Divine Whip descended, Heaven and Earth shook. The thunder element was extremely active. The Divine Whip was surrounded by tiny bolts of lightning, which were the essence of a condensed form. It might seem like a small spark, but] a light wave of the whip could seriously injure a Dragon Transformation stage expert.
At the same time, Sword Mountain seemed to have sensed something and let out a cry of contention.
“Thunder Fire Lightning Whip!”
Bai Haoyu lightly shook his hand, and the whip in his hand moved like a divine dragon, surging with the power of thunder and lightning.
“Using such a Thunder Spirit Immortal Stone, it is indeed extraordinary. Who can compete with this whip?”
“You are speaking too early. Ou Yechen’s whip hasn’t been refined yet. It is still too early to decide the outcome of the round.”
At this moment, because of the birth of the Thunder Fire Lightning Whip, many contestants had been affected. A few of them had yet to even form an embryo. This was due to the thunder and lightning.
Shockingly, there was an undetectable crack on one of the contestant’s weapon. It was as if there was a tiny hole in a perfectly intact container, and the spiritual energy instantly drained out.
“No, don’t!”
The contestant’s face was pale, and he desperately tried to repair it. However, the Thunder Fire Lightning Whip’s pressure was too heavy, and the crack spread rapidly like a spider web. Soon, the embryo lost its original spiritual energy.
No matter how he tried to repair it, he could not prevent the embryo from collapsing and being destroyed.
