Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity Chapter 1164

Chapter 1164: Chapter 734: Ridiculous, too ridiculous!! Chapter 1164: Chapter 734: Ridiculous, too ridiculous!! Between heaven and earth, all light suddenly vanished, leaving only eternal darkness that cascaded like a tide and instantly filled the entire space. For a moment, one could not see their own fingers if they extended their hand.

Apart from that ancient corpse suspended in midair.

The body of the other was emitting a dazzling light, like a sun that never set, accompanied by the thunderous roar of lightning.

The ancient corpse was over ten meters tall with robes that were ancient and tattered, covered in all sorts of breaches.

Some looked like sword scars, others like knife cuts, and some resembled hammer strikes…

There were countless, each one extraordinary, and they faintly exuded the will unique to the King's Domain.

The true fatal wound was located on the chest.

It was a sword scar.

It had pierced straight through the ancient corpse's heart.

With an unimaginable force of annihilation, it severed all threads of life from the other, even suppressing the Primordial Spirit.

Even now, after so many years, that sword scar still bore an unimaginable sharpness, as if it could still easily slice through the Giant Peak Stars' Fight. It was hard to imagine just how powerful the being who delivered that one sword strike was!

Through the ragged robes, one could clearly see the bloodstains that had soaked into the fabric.

They weren't all from the same period.

They weren't even all left by the same being.

Somewhat had already dried and hardened, while others still were rich with a bit of vitality.

And the colors were different as well.

The most prevalent were those ink-like Dark Blood stains that seemed to have been left longest ago and had already dried and scabbed.

But the owner of the Dark Blood was extraordinary, so its Immortal radiance still circulated even now.

The connection from within the bloodline allowed Lei Zhentian to instantly recognize the identity of this towering corpus.

The previous Thunder Emperor.

In a certain sense,
He was also the first Thunder Emperor.

Throughout history, only one Thunder Emperor had ever been born, the ancestor of all Thunder Spirits, the first Heavenly Tribulation that split heaven and earth at creation.

It was precisely because of this that he could command the celestial authority of punishment.

Alone, he had managed to rise to the ranks of Ten Evil, and in the Immortal Ancient battle, he even caused the Dark Beings to be thrown into disarray, deserving a certain level of respect.

It was just unfortunate that he was born at the wrong time.

In those tumultuous years.

Even though he was strong, he ultimately could not be invincible in the world.

In the end, he died miserably under the combined assault of several Dark Beings.

If he had been born in the current era,
and became a disciple of the master,
his future achievements would surely have not been limited to the heights that he reached back then.

It was only a pity that time could not be reversed, and death was undoubtedly irreversible.

Lei Zhentian felt a sense of melancholy and relief for some reason,
glad that he had closely followed his master's steps.

Even though motionless,
the ancient corpse still exuded an ineffable presence.

But that presence, despite its vastness, always carried a certain sadness.

Lei Zhentian's figure was majestic, his eyes sparkling with crackling sparks of thunder, staring intently at the ancient corpse.

If he remembered correctly, his master had once said that although the first Thunder Emperor had died in Immortal Ancient, a sliver of his spirit remained.

But for some reason, even though he had entered and had been here for such a long time, the first Thunder Emperor's corpse showed no reaction.

Could it be that the time that had passed was too long, and the residual spirit the other had left behind had dissipated in the endlessness of time?

If that was truly the case, wouldn't this trip have been in vain?

“I know that you, Fellow Daoist, still have lingering spirit. We originate from the same source, why not come forth and meet!”

Perhaps it was the penetrative gaze or the words spoken,
The previously motionless ancient corpse suddenly trembled slightly.

Then after, with the crisp sound of bones clacking, the next moment, it slowly opened its eyes, sitting up from the dark expanse of the starry sky.

“Thunder, since ancient times, has been the ultimate force between heaven and earth, symbolizing the sternness and authority of the cosmos.”

The ancient corpse's gaze toward Lei Zhentian was like traveling through the endless river of years, filled with a certain special sense of vicissitude and remembrance.

The color in those now somewhat cloudy eyes was complex.

Filled with both astonishment and elation.

As the previous statement concluded, he paused for a moment before continuing, “To be honest, I never would have imagined that after the battle of Immortal Ancient, another Thunder Spirit could evolve to the highest level!”

The magnificent voice emanated from the mouth of the ancient corpse. Even though dead, the lingering spirit still maintained its majesty.

As one who had been there,
it was well aware of the difficulty of evolving from a Thunder Spirit to a Thunder Emperor.

Saying it was like ascending to heaven was not an overstatement.

Among the other nine of the Ten Evil,
their number might not have seemed too many, but it certainly wouldn't be as pitiful as his, always a single digit.

Such loneliness was unimaginable to outsiders.

But to its surprise, after its death, a second Thunder Emperor had been born.

Even in its view, it was somewhat inconceivable.

Nevertheless, with the birth of a new Thunder Emperor, the Thunder Spirits between heaven and earth finally had a protector to shield them from wind and rain.

Besides that, it was also shocked that the other could see through its authenticity, knowing about this thread of spirit that still lingered.

Seemingly perceiving the doubt in the eyes of the first Thunder Emperor,
Lei Zhentian could not help but slowly speak, “It was the master who said that Your Excellency still had a trace of spirit remaining.”

“Master? Having evolved to the level of a Thunder Emperor, why would you still take someone else as your master?”

The words of Lei Zhentian fell, and the first Thunder Emperor momentarily stiffened, not even questioning why the other's master would know of its existence, but instead spoke in uncontrollable anger.

Great Taoist confrontations have never had easy paths, the struggle is always for a single log bridge.
