Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword

Chapter 240: Chapter 230 Caught Again (3/3)_3

However, the last reward was particularly tempting.

She was still at the First Layer Heaven of the Mountains and Rivers Realm, but she had passed the trial of the Mountains and Rivers Realm, so the rewards given were naturally precious.

"Yuan Thunder Treasure Array, capable of absorbing the power of Nine Heavens Shocking Thunder and forming Purple Thunder Beads, posing a threat to all martial artists below the Nascent Soul Realm!" Han Yiyao recounted the description of the fifth treasure to Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng could not help but be moved. These Purple Thunder Beads could not affect experts of the Nascent Soul Realm, which made sense! Once they had reached that realm, only a Peerless Magical Instrument could pose a threat to them!

Yet to be able to cause injuries even to experts of the Spirit Sea Realm seemed a bit too powerful!

He thought for a moment and threw the Falling Snow True Scripture to Han Yiyao, telling her to switch to this cultivation technique as well.

This was a Heaven Level Upper Grade Technique, far superior to the Water Element Heart Scripture passed down by the Han Family. Han Yiyao was overjoyed. Zhou Heng was willing to pass on such a precious technique to her, which showed how generous he was to his own people!

But, his own people?

Han Yiyao sighed inwardly. Even without the physical aspect, she was already engaged to be married. Could she be with Zhou Heng?

The other party was Ying Cheng’en, a super genius who had already stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm with one foot!

It was possible that Zhou Heng’s talent was not inferior to Ying Cheng’en, and he even surpassed him, but Zhou Heng ultimately suffered from being too young. Having cultivated the martial path for only about a decade, it would take him a long time to catch up to Ying Cheng’en!

Staying with Zhou Heng was equivalent to harming him!

But the two were bound by a love knot, which meant they had to stay together unless one broke through to the Spirit Sea Realm and undid the knot.

It was truly a headache!

Han Yiyao temporarily put aside such troubles and focused on studying the Falling Snow True Scripture. The boat will naturally straighten at the bridge; worrying is useless.

Half a day later, the four of them left the Nine Mystic Trial Tower together, heading for the Cold Blue Country.

They did not rush on their journey, but enjoyed the different customs of each country, taking their time like sightseeing. Thunderstorms were even better, perfect for charging the Yuan Thunder Treasure Array and generating Purple Thunder Beads.

The Yuan Thunder Treasure Array was similar to a treasure pagoda. Taking it out in a tumultuous thunderstorm was like provoking heaven’s wrath, as lightning would strike toward it!

Thunder, as a power of Heaven and Earth, could not be cultivated by mortals and was immensely powerful. Probably only an Old Ancestor in the Divinity Transformation Realm could cover the sky with one hand and contend with this most terrifying force of nature.

Neither Zhou Heng nor Han Yiyao dared to be struck by lightning. They had to keep their distance as soon as they deployed the Yuan Thunder Treasure Array, lest they get struck themselves – surviving would cost them dearly, even if they didn’t die!

The Purple Thunder Beads were aptly named, totally purple and semi-transparent, with visible blue thunder roiling inside!

To use it, one simply had to throw it. A slight collision would trigger an explosion, releasing the power of thunder. Since they were formed by attracting lightning with the Yuan Thunder Treasure Array, they couldn’t match the might of true heavenly thunder, and thus could only pose a threat to the experts of the Spirit Sea Realm, having virtually no effect on Nascent Soul Realm ancestors.

The number of Purple Thunder Beads that could be made at one time depended on how long the thunderstorm lasted and the distance from the center of the storm. In general, about two to four beads could be produced at a time.

It took them just over a month to return to the Cold Blue Country, and they had collected a total of seventeen Purple Thunder Beads. Other than Orchid Concubine, the three of them divided these powerful weapons among themselves — after all, Orchid Concubine was bound to the Nine Mystic Trial Tower by fate, so why would she need them? To blow up her own place?

After Orchid Concubine returned to the Nine Mystic Trial Tower, the three entered Shengyuan City. Zhou Heng decided to first check on Lu Chenfu’s situation and then it would be time to leave the Cold Blue Country for a challenge in the more vast expanse of Bright Moon Country.

He was getting closer and closer to the Spirit Sea Realm, and his physical strength had also reached the Mountains and Rivers Realm, so facing a move from Zhao Duotian should pose no problem!

Although he really wanted to give his uncle a good beating, it seemed unlikely for now. The urgent task at hand was to retrieve his mother and have a reunion with his father.

Previously, Lu Chenfu had bought a large mansion in the city. Zhou Heng, familiar with the location, led Han Yiyao and Xiao Huoshui to the place, and they quickly arrived in front of the mansion.

"Young Master Zhou, we greet you!"

Zhou Heng’s reputation in the Cold Blue Country was well known, and as attendants of the Lu Family, they naturally all recognized Zhou Heng’s appearance. The word was that this young master was not only the Family Head’s backbone but also intimated with the young lady of the house!

"It’s terrible, Young Master Zhou, the young lady has been captured by people from the Ying Family!" blurted out a house servant.

Captured again?

Zhou Heng’s face darkened. Why was this woman always getting kidnapped!(To be continued.
