Chapter 1192: 1196 Thunder Ocean

The Thunder Ocean is located in the middle of the Green Lotus Immortal Domain, known as a famous natural danger. Covered by the power of thunder and lightning all year round, even a Taiyi Golden Immortal venturing deep into the Thunder Ocean may fall.

Some immortals, to evade powerful enemies, hide in the Thunder Ocean, where their severe injuries lead to death and the dissolution of their Dao, leaving behind Zouhua Caves that attract other immortals for treasure hunting.

A golden escape light appeared in the distant sky, flashed, and stopped.

The escape light dissipated, revealing a hundred-zhang-long golden colossal ship, around a green tea table sat Shen Long and Chu Buyu, while Shen Chan, Shen Fu, and Shen Pixiu stood on the deck.

"This is the Thunder Ocean!"

Shen Chan’s expression was solemn.

Following his gaze, one could see a vast and boundless blue sea. Lightning and thunder filled the sky incessantly; the entire world was enveloped by the power of thunder and lightning.

"We’re just passing through the periphery, there should be no problem. Time is pressing, so we must proceed this way."

Shen Long said.

To reach the Northern Profound Sea Domain in the shortest time, they needed to pass through the Thunder Ocean. Taking a detour would take even longer.

Both Shen Long and Chu Buyu wanted to reach the Northern Profound Sea Domain as soon as possible; they did not want their great opportunity to be seized by others. Murong Hu was a previous example.

"We must still be careful. If it gets too dangerous, we should take a detour; safety is more important."

Chu Buyu advised.

Shen Chan responded with a sound, formed a spell, and the golden colossal ship flew forward.

No sooner had the golden colossal ship appeared in the Thunder Ocean than a thick silver lightning bolt split the sky, striking at the golden colossal ship.

Chu Buyu summoned the Seven Stars Thunder Umbrella, which floated above the golden colossal ship.

She urged her spell, and the Seven Stars Thunder Umbrella emitted a blinding silver light, spinning around, and let down a thick silver light curtain, covering the golden colossal ship.

The silver lightning struck the silver light curtain and disappeared instantly.

The golden colossal ship continued flying forward, with falling silver lightning bolts growing thicker and striking the silver light curtain, disappearing in total.

After half a day, they had still not left the Thunder Ocean.

One could see many barren islands here, sparsely vegetated and appearing bare.

"Master, there’s a late-stage Golden Immortal cultivator ahead!"

Shen Fu reported.

Shen Chan’s eyes shone with golden light, saying, "Indeed a cultivator, using the power of thunder and lightning to temper his body."

"Tempering the body at the Thunder Ocean? That’s unusual."

Chu Buyu remarked.

"Let’s go and see. To dare temper oneself in the Thunder Ocean, this person must be extraordinary."

Shen Long instructed.

Shen Chan formed a spell, and the golden colossal ship flew forward.

After a while, the golden colossal ship stopped.

Ahead lay a barren island spanning over a thousand li, with terrain higher in the south and lower in the north; a robust, silver-robed youth sat cross-legged atop a high peak.

The silver-robed youth’s body emitted a burst of silver radiance, amidst which lightning and thunder crackled, and thick silver lightning bolts descended.

The silver lightning struck the silver-robed youth’s body, disappearing without a trace, like mud sinking into the sea.

The silver-robed youth displayed a look of contentment, thoroughly enjoying the power of thunder and lightning.

With a deafening thunderclap, a thick dual-colored lightning bolt split the sky, striking at the silver-robed youth.

The silver radiance on the silver-robed youth’s body grew even more dazzling, and the dual-colored lightning struck him, exploding instantaneously, engulfing him in a mass of glaring dual-colored lightning glow.

After a while, the dual-colored lightning glow dissipated, and the silver-robed youth remained unharmed.

He looked up at Shen Long and the others, frowning as he said, "What brings you five Daoist friends here?"

"It’s nothing, we’re just passing through and bear no malice."

Shen Long replied.

"If you’re just passing through, then be on your way to avoid any misunderstanding."

The silver-robed youth’s tone was indifferent.

"What if I don’t want to leave and wish to stay for a while?"

Shen Long smiled slightly.

"Take one strike from me and you’re allowed to stay."

As soon as the silver-robed youth finished speaking, he raised his right hand high.

A thick silver thunder pillar split the sky, tearing a long fissure through the void as if to slice the very void itself in two.

"Great achievement in the Thunder Law!"

Shen Long calmly smiled, his right fist shining with golden light as he punched forward.

The void shattered, and a golden giant fist flashed out, meeting the attack.

The golden giant fist collided with the silver thunder pillar and was shattered by it.

Another golden giant fist came, resulting in mutual destruction with the silver thunder pillar.

"Great achievement in the Strength Law!"

The silver-robed youth’s eyes flashed with a trace of surprise.

"I am Zhao Yuting; how may I address you, fellow Daoist?"

The silver-robed youth clasped his hands in greeting, his voice resonant.

"I am Qian Long, and this is my wife, Chu Yun."

Shen Long smiled as he introduced himself.

His guess was indeed correct; a Golden Immortal cultivator daring to temper his body in the Thunder Ocean was no ordinary being.

"So it’s Taoist Friend Qian and Madam Chu. Is Taoist Friend Qian also here to temper himself?"

Zhao Yuting inquired.

"Not at all, we are indeed just passing by. Curious, we came over upon discovering Taoist Friend Zhao tempering himself."

Shen Long explained.

"You’re not thinking of venturing into the Thunder Ocean, are you? This is merely the periphery, relatively safe. In the core area, the power of thunder and lightning would be stronger; even a Taiyi Golden Immortal could fall."

Zhao Yuting warned.

"Thank you, Daoist Friend Zhao, for the reminder. We do not intend to delve into the Thunder Ocean; we are merely passing through the periphery and shall not disturb Daoist Friend Zhao’s cultivation any longer. Farewell."

Shen Long clasped his hands in farewell.

Shen Chan formed a spell, the golden colossal ship brightly glowing with golden light, turning into a shadow as it vanished.

"Qian Long! Chu Yun! It seems that the Green Lotus Immortal Domain truly harbors hidden talents, encountering a Golden Immortal cultivator who has brought the Strength Law to great achievement while tempering in this place."

Zhao Yuting mused to himself.

The silver radiance on his body grew ever more brilliant, amidst which lightning and thunder burst forth, and a thick silver thunder pillar split the sky, striking at Zhao Yuting.

With loud rumbling, silver lightning submerged Zhao Yuting’s figure.

More than half a month later, the golden colossal ship floated over a blue sea; the sky was clear, the sea breeze gentle.

"Finally, we’ve reached the Northern Profound Sea Domain!"

Shen Chan said with a smile.

"Let’s head to the nearest marketplace for a good rest."

Shen Long instructed.

Just as Shen Chan was about to steer the golden colossal ship forward, Shen Fu spoke up: "Two Golden Immortal cultivators are approaching."

Upon hearing this, Shen Chan’s eyes burst with dazzling golden light as he frowned and said, "Southwest direction, it should just be a passer-by!"

"We’ll observe quietly!"

Shen Long instructed.

After a while, a green escape light appeared from the southwest direction, quickly flying toward them.

Soon, the green escape light stopped, revealing a green-light-flashing flying boat; a medium-sized green-robed man and a brawny golden-robed man stood on the green flying boat.

Judging by their aura, both were early-stage Golden Immortal cultivators.

"Who are you?"

The golden-robed man asked, his tone stern.

"This is the wilderness; what does it matter to you who we are?"

Shen Long frowned and
