The three handprints suddenly landed from the void and killed the Three Major Sects as though pinching three ants to death.

While many people thought this was a natural disaster, the handwriting suspended in the void allowed them to understand. The Three Major Sects had been destroyed because they had joined forces to destroy the Immortal Lake Sect.

At that moment, the entire Microwood Immortal Continent started discussing the Immortal Lake Sect and the Three Major Sects.

“I was right. With an expert with an outstanding gift like Senior Nong Xiuqi, how could the Immortal Lake Sect be exterminated just like that? The Three Major Sects deserved this.”

“That’s right. The Immortal Lake Sect has always been gentle. It has never offended anyone. However, because the Three Major Sects coveted the Immortal Quintessence Lake, they exterminated the Immortal Lake Sect. They have gone overboard…”

The topic of discussion seemed to be the same everywhere. Everyone was talking about the consequence of exterminating the Immortal Lake Sect. The Three Major Sects had disappeared from the Microwood Immortal Continent.

…

While He Cang was still in a daze, a huge pile of rings suddenly landed before him and he heard Di Jiu’s voice. “Put away all these rings. I’ve already sent the Spirit Quintessence Lake to the Immortal Lake Sect and set up a Defense Array outside. I’ll give this control array flag to you.”

While he said that, Di Jiu dropped an array flag into He Cang’s hand.

He had simply set up a level-two Divine Array that even an Immortal Emperor could not blast apart. Furthermore, this level-two Divine Array had a strangulation restriction. Whoever dared to attack the Defense Array of the Immortal Lake Sect would be killed by it.

However, Di Jiu believed that no one would dare to attack the Defense Array of the Immortal Lake Sect after this incident.

“Thank you, Senior.” He Cang knelt, fully understanding what was going on. The senior before his eyes was absolutely an almighty. Otherwise, he could not have stood still and exterminated the Three Major Sects.

Not long ago, three handprints had been dropped away from the void. The three handprints had landed on the Three Major Sects. Evidently, the senior before his eyes had exterminated the Three Major Sects. The pile of rings in front of him proved that his guess was correct.

With this pile of rings, he was fully confident about bringing the Immortal Lake Sect to greater heights.

Di Jiu waved his hand. “I want to ask you about two people. One of them is Di Wangchuan and the other is Di Qiushui. Have you heard of them?”

Before He Cang could answer, Di Jiu’s expression changed all of a sudden. Without hesitation, he tore apart the void and rushed over at him. He Cang could not even answer his inquiry.

Even though Di Jiu had disappeared, He Cang still sensed a terrifying roar coming from the void.

…

Boom! Boom! Boom! The violent, loud thunder streaks locked the space Di Jiu was in and struck his body.

At that moment, Di Jiu could not take out the Void Mountain or Yin-Yang Taijitu even if he wanted to. Then, thunder streaks tore all of his clothes. Even though Di Jiu had a peak Sacred Body, it was torn apart by these terrifying thunder streaks.

Every inch of his bones was blasted by the thick thunder streaks into nothing, but this was not the end. As the terrifying thunder streaks condensed even more, Di Jiu finally took advantage of this space to swallow a drop of Quintessential Essence of the Universe and put two drops of Quintessential Essence of the Universe in his mouth.

Di Jiu’s broken body was almost restored in an instant. Meanwhile, he frantically circulated the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art. He had already vaguely understood what was going on. Thus, he would not hide in the Ninth World.

He could not hide forever. He was sure that these terrifying thunder streaks wanted to kill him.

Since he couldn’t hide, he might as well face the music.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Continuous loud thunder swept across from all directions again, completely hitting Di Jiu. This time, the thunder was more terrifying. In addition to the thunder streaks, there were also thunder swords, thunder spears, and thunder sabers. This was not Thunder Tribulation but thunder basically exterminating people.

Crack! Crack! The sound of bones cracking could be heard once again. Even Di Jiu’s skull cracked, and his body was broken into several pieces.

No cultivator could withstand even one streak of this terrifying exterminating thunder. However, Di Jiu had at least withstood hundreds of streaks of the two waves of continuous thunder streaks striking his body.

The violent thunder streaks of the first wave of Thunder Tribulation had almost split every inch of him. There was still a gap before the second wave of thunder arrived, but after it tore him apart once again, the third wave came without a pause.

Di Jiu swallowed two drops of Quintessential Essence of the Universe again with his strongest willpower, which once again restored his body and bones at the fastest speed possible. At that moment, he frantically circulated the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art and the Nomological Qi Circulation.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

When the third wave of thunder hit him, it no longer contained thunder streaks, thunder swords, or thunder spears. It comprised a huge thunder hammer and profound thunder charms. This was a thunder faculty Dao rune. Thus, this attack would not tear Di Jiu’s body and soul. Instead, it wanted to annihilate his soul.

Di Jiu roared. With the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art, the Heavenly Aqua Saber hacked apart the small-mountain-like thunder streaks.

A moment later, more thunder struck Di Jiu when he sensed a more powerful force erupting in his bones, ready to break. It was as if he had created a world of his own.

That force became stronger and stronger, blocking the thunder that tore his body. Then, he was enlightened about new nomological Dao runes that encircled him while continually condensing his body and bones.

Bam! Bam! Continuous thunder struck Di Jiu. Even though his skin had just formed, this thunder couldn’t rip it apart.

Di Jiu let out a roar. After using the Heavenly Aqua Saber, he sent out a fist move.

Boom! The thunder, thunder balls, and thunder swords clashed with his fist move. As a result, the void exploded into endless thunder flares.

There were tremors in the void. Due to this fist move, void rifts appeared that led to all realms. However, Di Jiu roared again.

The thunder lightning strike ceased and the void gradually returned to its original state. While standing in the void, Di Jiu was filled with surging excitement.

His body had finally broken through the Sacred Body and advanced to a new level whose name he was unaware of.

A dusting spell cleaned Di Jiu, who shuddered. He already had a new set of clothes. He grabbed the Heavenly Aqua Saber that floated around him and looked up at the vast void.

Not long ago, terrifying thunder had blasted out of there, obviously wanting to take his life. However, he had managed to escape thanks to the Quintessential Essence of the Universe.

In fact, even without the Quintessential Essence of the Universe, when the second wave of thunder had struck, he could have entered the Ninth World to avoid it. However, he would have felt uncomfortable. Now, he used the thunder that had attacked him to take his body to a newer level. He was no longer afraid of any kind of thunder and he felt very happy in his heart.

He had only exterminated three sects that deserved it in the Microwood Immortal Continent. This thunder had probably found him because he had violated the Heaven Earth Law and only killed the weak. Why hadn’t the thunder responded when these three sects had exterminated the Immortal Lake Sect? Was it because he came from the Dao World and had a higher cultivation level than the cultivators of the Immortal World?

What made Di Jiu even angrier was that when this thunder had struck down before, he had still been in the Immortal Lake Sect. In other words, he had still been in the Microwood Immortal Continent. When this thunder had struck him, it had wanted to blast the Microwood Immortal Continent into pieces. In other words, if he had been just a bit slower, the Microwood Immortal Continent would have ended up getting destroyed.

It was evident that this thunder had attacked only because he had violated a law, not because he wanted to protect the Microwood Immortal Continent.
