In the southwest of Xiyuanzhou, Chu State, there is a ring-shaped mountain called the Kuding Mountains.
Just like its name, the first ring-shaped mountain range is extremely desolate. The ridge that stretches for more than ten miles is barren of grass and is filled with withered yellow rocks and soil, and even the spiritual energy is very scarce.
Although this Hengduan Mountain Range is exhausted and desolate, several of its peaks reach straight into the sky, with the highest reaching a height of more than 2,000 feet. From a distance, this ring-shaped mountain range plus several towering peaks looks like the outline of a giant tripod. .
Many immortal cultivators have heard the legends here.
I don't know how many thousands of years ago, there was a powerful man who was able to refine a top-notch magic weapon here.
The refining process of the magic weapon drained the aura and vitality of the entire mountain range, and even triggered the thunder catastrophe, which made this spiritual mountain so desolate. In the future, the Kuding Mountain Range became a place frequented by thunderstorms. Area.
Although this kind of rumor has been circulating for a long time, most immortal cultivators are very skeptical about it. You must know that the circle of the Kuding Mountain Range is ten miles long. What kind of magic weapon can actually suck up the spiritual energy here, and the range of the drop is like this. Big thunder disaster.
Even the legendary monks at the stage of becoming gods would not be able to accomplish such a large formation.
As for why this place attracts the power of thunder, most immortal cultivators think it is because of the geographical location of the mountains here.
This place is not very far from the sea. The climate is humid, and there is a natural basin in the middle of the Kuding Mountains. Thunderstorms are naturally very frequent. In addition, the Kuding Mountains are high enough, so it is normal for thunder to fall.
So many thunderstorms have formed a swampy valley in the basin inside the Kuding Mountains, with many green shrubs growing inside, forming a strong contrast with the barren yellow mountains outside.
It's a pity that there is a lack of spiritual energy here, otherwise a landscape like Kuding Mountain would be an excellent place for a sect to base itself.
Although there are no permanent cultivators here, due to the frequent appearance of thunder, there are still some monks who need to collect thunder and lightning come here.
…
On this day, a lavender spirit shuttle appeared outside the dark clouds over the Kuding Mountains, shooting towards the location of the Kuding Mountains.
Standing in front of the spirit shuttle is a middle-aged man with a square face wearing a light golden robe.
Behind him is a big man with a sinewy face. This man's body is slightly bent, and his fierce face has a hint of respect. There is a small yellow monkey at his feet.
The little monkey lay on the soul shuttle in a big glyph shape, with his eyes closed tightly, chewing sounds of "bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah," and a trace of crystal saliva slowly flowing out, as if he was having a sweet dream.
These two people were Xiao Hongfei and Lu Kun who rushed here, and Xiao Jin who was released by Lu Kun to guard them.
At this time, Lu Kun, who turned into a big man, quietly transmitted a message: "Brother Xiao, we have been in the South China Sea for several days, and we have not found any monks with evil intentions."
"Is it because Taoist Huo doesn't plan to attack you that day?"
Xiao Hongfei frowned slightly and said through the voice: "Brother Lu doesn't seem to be an impatient person? If I were Tianhuo, I would definitely not take action in that sea area. At least I would take action in the Kuding Mountains in front, so he is very likely to Bajiu is still following us secretly."
Lu Kun glanced at Xiao Jin and nodded helplessly.
In fact, he knew very well that when they collected the power of thunder and lightning between heaven and earth in the previous sea area, there were no immortal cultivators following them.
Otherwise, Xiao Jin would not have reacted along the way. Of course, he would not explain the little monkey's magical power to Xiao Hongfei, so he could only focus on collecting thunder and lightning from heaven and earth.
Many immortal cultivators will collect the power of thunder between heaven and earth. Whether it is making talismans, refining magic weapons, or even some special skills, this power of thunder will be used.
The method for immortal cultivators to collect thunder and lightning is to use a special jade bottle to temporarily store the thunder in the jade bottle through the lightning inducing array.
However, the naturally formed thunder and lightning between heaven and earth is somewhat different from the spells of immortal cultivators. If stored in a jade bottle, it will only last for a limited time.
Lu Kun's purpose was to generate the essence of thunder and lightning in the piece of different thunder gold in his hand, so he only needed to attract the thunder to gather towards the different thunder gold.
The previous spellcasting in the sea area was very successful. The different thunder gold, which could not contain the thunder attribute mana, was not afraid of the thunder power between heaven and earth, absorbing as much as it could.
In Shenyuanfang City, Xiao Hongfei came forward to inquire about frequent thunderstorms in several places in Xiyuanzhou. The area they went to before was a sea area where heavy rains occur frequently.
They placed the lightning-inducing array on the spirit shuttle and absorbed the thunder and lightning for several days until the sea area became clear and clear. I am afraid there will be no thunderstorms in the next few months.
It's a pity that the abnormal thunder gold only produced a trace of thunder and lightning power, which was far from meeting Lu Kun's requirements.
Next, the two of them came here, the Kuding Mountains.
There are already several waves of immortal cultivators here, and they are setting up magic circles on several mountain peaks, which look like lightning-inducing magic circles.
Most of these monks are in the foundation-building stage, and there are even low-level monks in the Qi-refining stage. They are wearing the costumes of various sects. They are presumably disciples who have gone out to complete the task of collecting the power of thunder and lightning.
Xiao Hongfei directly activated the flying boat under his feet, which turned into a dazzling escaping light and landed on the first peak of the Kuding Mountains.
The expressions of several Foundation-building monks here changed when they saw Xiao Hongfei's unabashedly tyrannical cultivation.
"I'll give you five breaths to get away from this mountain."
Xiao Hongfei flicked his sleeves and robe, and a burst of spiritual pressure that was unrivaled for the monks in the foundation-building stage burst out, pushing several people back.
Without saying a word, they quickly wielded their weapons and left the mountain peak in less than three breaths as if fleeing.
Lu Kun was not surprised by this. After landing on the mountain, he took out the little monkey who was a little confused in the spirit shuttle, put away the spirit shuttle, took out the array plates one by one from the storage bag, and began to arrange them. Lightning array.
This magic circle was purchased by them from the Wanbao Building in Abyssal Square City. As long as it is in the right place and has enough cultivation, it can continuously attract the falling thunder and lightning.
After Xiao Hongfei drove away the people from this mountain peak, he ignored the monks from other peaks, because after the thunder and lightning appeared, using his magic power in the alchemy stage to activate the magic circle, the others could not absorb a trace of thunder at all.
Lu Kun moved quickly and completed the magic circle in a short time. Finally, he placed the flashing lightning gold in the center of the magic circle. Then he stood aside and looked calmly at the surrounding peaks.
There were two mountain peaks very close, and Lu Kun could see them very clearly with his golden eyes. The monks on them were all wearing robes marked by the Lieyang Sect. As the third largest sect in the Chu Kingdom, it was no wonder that he did not leave after seeing Xiao Hongfei.
Lu Kun just glanced briefly and then shifted his gaze.
It is understandable that people from the Lieyang Sect collect thunder. From this pure natural thunder, thunder fire can be extracted, which is presumably what the Lieyang Sect needs for their cultivation.
However, when he saw the disciples of the Lieyang Sect, he couldn't help but think of the Taoist Tianhuo mentioned by Xiao Hongfei, and there was a hint of doubt in his heart.
"Boom!"
Just as Lu Kun was thinking wildly, a thunder suddenly sounded in the sky.
A thunderstorm is coming.
