Chapter 43 Sweeping Through the Rain Clan, Finding Zhang Zixin
Chapter 43 Sweeping Through the Rain Clan, Finding Zhang Zixin
The Rain Clan has a long history, ancient and glorious, existing even before the establishment of the Stone Kingdom.
In fact, the more primitive surnames of the human race, such as wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, are extremely ancient and complex, and are not limited to the Stone Kingdom, let alone the desolate region.
Just like there is a Thunder Clan in the Great Wilderness, there is also a Thunder Clan in the Stone Kingdom, but the two have almost no connection except for sharing the same surname.
The moon is dim and the stars are sparse; the night is as dark as ink—perfect for murder and arson.
In the mountains, a lithe figure moved like a shadow.
Shi Zhao continued his journey, his destination being some of the Rain Clan's important industries in the western border region.
Attacking the Rain Clan is unrealistic; we don't have the strength for now. Only by becoming a king or noble can we wage war against them.
Of course, in the end, she didn't have any deep-seated hatred for the Rain Clan, otherwise she would have already picked up the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc to demand an explanation and an account.
It's just a momentary outburst of anger, and I'm just speaking up for my younger brother.
"Indeed, this black gold mine is quite large, and rare birds and animals are kept nearby. If one does not take advantage of such a gift, one will suffer the consequences. I will gladly accept it."
The girl smiled brightly, revealing her pearly white teeth and large, bright eyes.
She concentrated and held her breath, unleashing another inherited treasure technique from the Supreme Hall. Her fair, jade-like skin was tinged with a dark gray, and her aura gradually faded until she disappeared completely.
This is the Immortal Silkworm Technique, the strongest divine power and profound secret of this clan, which is to reverse life and become immortal, and to transform into a divine embryo. However, it was used to conceal one's aura and to do such a petty and despicable thing.
If the Undying Silkworm Clan had not been wiped out and knew about this, they would probably be furious.
In the territory ahead, a large number of Rain Clan members were stationed, and powerful individuals were guarding the area. Yet, no one noticed that someone had quietly infiltrated the heavily fortified area.
Seeing the warehouse made of huge stones not far away, Shi Zhao summoned his Bixie spear and blasted it over.
In an instant, divine light shot into the sky, illuminating the entire night.
"boom!"
The magic array was broken, and most of the warehouse collapsed as a result.
The guards were so bored they were almost dozing off, and they didn't think anyone would dare to offend the Rain Clan's dignity, but they didn't expect that someone would actually come looking for trouble.
This attack was so devastating that it scared them half to death. When they turned around, they saw that most of the warehouse had collapsed. They stood there dumbfounded for a long time before they remembered to shout that the enemy was attacking.
Some unlucky souls were caught in the aftershocks and collapsed to the ground, sleeping on the pile of stones.
Ignoring them, Shi Zhao rushed into the ruins, collected all the black gold ore stored in the warehouse into the luminous white bone box, and then, disregarding the shouts of battle behind him, took long strides and turned to rush towards the nearby Auspicious Beast Ridge.
In the blink of an eye, countless rare birds and beasts were forcibly taken away by her.
Since we're already here, it's just a convenient thing to do.
"Over there, hurry and chase after them!"
"Quick, don't let him get away!"
Shouts echoed from the mountains, but Shi Zhao remained calm, because she had long legs and none of them could outrun her.
Are you kidding me? Do you really think breaking the record in the Realm of the Void is a joke?
"Boom—"
Enraged, the Rain Clan pursuers mobilized in unison, unleashing their magical techniques. Dark clouds gathered in the sky, covering the entire mountain area, followed by a torrential downpour that blanketed everything in a vast expanse.
Not far away, a low hill was flattened by the terrifying raindrops, rocks broke, ancient trees snapped, and exploded in an instant.
The Rain Clan is naturally drawn to the power of water. When they use the same magical technique, the runes connect, unleashing an even more powerful force.
"A gentle breeze and fine rain cleave the stars and moon!"
The group shouted together, and the raindrops in the sky turned into sharp blades, whistling and flashing with dazzling light, sweeping forward in an overwhelming manner.
"Sizzle! Sizzle!"
It was clear that each raindrop was as sharp as refined gold, piercing the mountaintops with countless holes and turning the boulders into beehives, which was quite terrifying.
"Burn mountains and boil seas!"
Shi Zhao formed a hand seal, and blazing blue and red flames instantly swept across the heavens and earth.
The Bifang is a fierce bird, a symbol of disaster. Its flames have nothing to do with gentleness; they are extremely fiery and violent, even full of demonic power.
In the ancient times, there was a pure-blooded Bifang, known as a celestial demonic bird, who was a demon lord of a region.
"Sizzle sizzle—"
Flames shot into the sky, burning countless raindrops to ashes, turning them into rising clouds and then vanishing into nothingness.
"Don't run, you little thief! Lei is here!"
An old man roared in the distance, and the dark clouds in the sky that were about to be burned away condensed again. With a crack, a bolt of blue lightning struck down, a terrifying sight.
This was not performed by human power, but by the divine might of heaven and earth, which was extremely terrifying.
Shi Zhao had sensed it beforehand and leaped up in an instant to dodge it.
"Snap!"
Nearby, a mountain peak was struck by lightning and shattered into pieces, with rocks tumbling down, creating a truly astonishing scene.
Clearly, this was a master of the Inscription Realm, two major realms higher than Shi Zhao, whose strength was terrifying.
Those who advance to the Inscription Realm are definitely considered experts among humans. They are highly respected wherever they go, and the best among them can be enfeoffed as kings or marquises.
This realm is difficult to break through. It requires inscribing runes in the bones and grotto-heavens within the body, and beginning to attempt to lay out the Dao principles and patterns. This is the beginning of humanity truly embarking on its own path and no longer completely borrowing from the runes of ferocious beasts.
"So powerful! The clan elders have made their move, mastering our clan's treasured technique to an unparalleled level, able to unleash lightning attacks with ease!"
"Electricity arises from rain, complementing each other; this is the fundamental principle by which my Rain Clan transcends itself. That little thief has nowhere to escape and is doomed!"
The Rain Clan members were very excited.
For so many years, no one has dared to offend the Rain Clan's dignity. Today, however, a fellow has dared to plunder their treasure mines and steal rare birds and beasts. He must be severely punished as a warning to others.
"boom!"
Blue lightning flashed and struck Shi Zhao, continuously descending, its electric sparks terrifying.
Shi Zhao's gaze was initially somewhat serious, but when he saw that this guy wasn't honestly implementing the water technique, but instead insisted on showing off by playing with thunder, he almost burst out laughing.
He possessed the Pure Blood Suanni Treasure Technique, which was a truly powerful technique for controlling lightning. Wasn't the Rain Clan's lightning magic just showing off their limited skills in front of an expert?
Even if she were struck by this half-baked lightning, she felt she could withstand it and wouldn't be in mortal danger.
Of course, she was only here to collect interest today; she wasn't planning on fighting anyone or exposing too much of herself.
"Rain Clan, you have committed many evils, you will get your retribution sooner or later!" Shi Zhao shouted in a low voice, it was hard to tell whether he was male or female.
Runes flickered behind her, transforming into a pair of blue wings speckled with crimson. Standing amidst the raging flames, she resembled a rising sun, melting the surrounding rocks.
One hundred and eight fiery feathers appeared behind him, transforming into divine swords that clanged and clashed, their killing intent shaking the surrounding area and forcing back all invading enemies.
As for the lightning bolts striking from the sky, she blocked them all with a Xuan Turtle Shield.
Use your Noble Phantasm when necessary; there's no need to show off and suffer for it.
"call out--"
"Ah!" Amidst the flames, a streak of dark light flashed by. The Rain Clan's Inscription Realm elder was struck by a sharp arrow, and half of his body exploded, a gruesome sight.
