Chapter 1072: Chapter 376: Natural Comprehension, Observing Myriad Mysteries (Double-Length Chapter)

Earth Surge Sky Star.

Lei Jun looked at the Tai Chi Diagram, nodded with satisfaction, and put it away.

In this way, Junior Brother Chu Kun’s opportunity to improve his root bone is firmly established.

Sun Li did not ask Lei Jun and Chu Kun what they intended to do with this treasure.

He just quietly stayed by Lei Jun’s side and silently polished the Morning Sun Precious Wood he had buried underground.

Under Lei Jun’s observation, the giant wood buried in the black soil gradually retracted its glow, and its surface transformed into a pitch black.

Compared to charcoal-like blackness, the current giant wood appears more like dense ink in color.

Its spiritual nature also retracts, but it is not eroded; rather, it silently changes internally.

However, at this moment, the void in the Earth Sea suddenly began to shake, and the circulation of Spiritual Energy underwent dramatic changes.

A certain profound force opposed the various ritual instruments arranged by Lei Jun.

"The Great Shaman of the Divine Dance Lineage’s Jiuli... and it seems to have reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer of the Divine Descend Realm." Lei Jun instantly discerned the source of the change.

Senior Sister Tang Xiaotang on that side had no special movement.

With her presence, even though Li Zhongding, the leader of the Wenli tribe, is currently the top expert among Jiuli, he should also be unable to spare attention to Lei Jun’s side.

Among the Jiuli people in the Earth Sea, aside from Li Zhongding of the Wenli tribe, the other Ninth Heavenly Layer Great Shaman of the Divine Dance lineage is the new leader of the Lu Li tribe, Li Jin.

Although her minor realm level doesn’t match Li Zhongding, she has newly achieved the Ninth Heavenly Layer cultivation of the Witchcraft Sect in recent years, and her arrangement of the Ghost God Sacrificial Array can at least cause regional upheaval in the Earth Sea.

According to the information Lei Jun received earlier, Li Jin, as a top expert of the Five Tribes Alliance Army, should currently be facing off against Li Xun, leader of the Fu Li tribe in the Four Tribes Alliance Army.

Li Xun is more experienced than Li Jin.

But like the Tan Li clan leader Li Yuanheng, he was previously injured while facing the Great Demon Luo Yuan, suffering from enemies on both sides.

In this situation, Li Jin finds it easy to fight and can even divert her attention to deal with the environmental changes in the Earth Sea caused by the Tang Dynasty’s Mortal World.

The person who wouldn’t agree to extinguish the changes brought by Lei Jun’s ritual instrument first would be Sun Li.

Sun Li is remaking the giant wood, currently at a critical moment.

Standing on the ground, he also made several dance-like movements similar to the sacrificial rituals, walking around the four directions.

The Four Extremes Pillars, which are only available to those with perfection in the Eight Heavenly Layers of the Witchcraft Sect’s Cursed Prayer lineage, reappeared, standing in four directions, connecting heaven and earth.

But in the midst of his movement, Sun Li suddenly stopped, no longer continuing, seemingly waiting quietly for something.

After a short while, the power of the sacrificial formation in the turbulent Earth Sea suddenly paused slightly.

"Hmm..." Lei Jun and Sun Li, upon seeing this, nodded slightly in unison.

Li Jin indeed has an advantage against Li Xun, but is not yet able to act freely.

Moreover, besides Li Xun, other experts were present at the main battlefield near the ancestral land of the Tan Li tribe.

Li Jin wanting to interrupt the ritual on the Tang Dynasty’s Mortal World side would naturally be obstructed by others.

However, after having prepared thoroughly, Li Jin could pass the responsibility to other Great Shamans of the Divine Dance Lineage at the Eight Heavenly Layer realm.

Hence, after a brief interruption and fluctuation, the power of the sacrificial formation was indeed able to resume.

However, compared to the initial beginning, it was undoubtedly much weaker.

As a result, at this moment, Sun Li’s Four Extremes Pillars were set in place again.

He began to step forward again and walk around the four pillars, chanting under his breath.

Eventually, Sun Li reached the center of the four pillars and suddenly bowed down.

In an instant, Lei Jun saw firelight erupt around Sun Li within the four pillars.

Then it vanished in an instant.

As the firelight flashed and dissipated, black smoke appeared in the air afterward.

Even within the black fog swirling in the Earth Sea, that seemingly faint line of black smoke was exceptionally conspicuous.

However, like the firelight, the black smoke soon disappeared.

It’s as if nothing ever existed there.

"The Thousand Miles Curse, indeed true to its name." Lei Jun observed this and nodded repeatedly.

Among the Witchcraft Sect’s Five Lineages, the Cursed Prayer lineage is relatively the most mysterious and unpredictable, blending reality and illusion.

The range of its curses varies greatly; generally speaking, the farthest-reaching means in the Witchcraft Sect’s tradition are located in the Cursed Prayer lineage.

To a certain extent, it might even approach the Taoist Sect’s Flying Swords and the Confucian Divine Archery, only the prerequisites to make it effective are much more complex.

The Thousand Miles Curse executed by Sun Li currently, if successful, could potentially curse the enemy from thousands of miles away.

He is currently using Lei Jun’s ritual instrument and the resonating energy of the enemy’s sacrificial formation to send them a Thousand Miles Curse.

Strictly speaking, Sun Li’s Thousand Miles Curse lacked precision and should not be able to injure a Great Shaman of the Eight Heavenly Layers realm.

But once the opponent takes this hit, the sacrificial formation is difficult to maintain further.

"Celestial Master is too kind." Sun Li spoke while beside him the Four Extremes Pillars disappeared.

Indeed, the opposing sacrificial formation was interrupted again.

The power of Lei Jun’s ritual instrument resumed its previous stable operation.

"Senior’s curse technique is exquisite and sophisticated, far surpassing peers." Lei Jun said.

Having shocked Li Bin with the Samsara Descend earlier indicated Sun Li’s exceptional talent and opportunities, holding one of the Witch Sect’s historically powerful curses, yet his execution of the Thousand Miles Curse in a stop-start manner demonstrated his nuanced control.

Even without the Samsara Descend, with other curse techniques, his strength likewise far surpasses the vast majority of Great Shamans specialized in curses at the same realm.

And his timing of grasping opportunities is rather... insidious and cunning.

"If talking about far surpassing peers, Celestial Master should be top of the list."

Sun Li: "There is no prior or posterior in learning; those who achieve more are ahead. I believe Celestial Master will reach the Ninth Heavenly Layer faster than me, and I dare not accept such courtesy from Celestial Master."
