Chapter 632: Chapter 60: Tai Xiao Thunder Dragon, Floating Light Golden Fire Chapter 632: Chapter 60: Tai Xiao Thunder Dragon, Floating Light Golden Fire Qiu Changtian stepped into the rear hall and entered a secret realm.
It was a desolate mountaintop, completely barren and devoid of any vegetation.
With a brief sweep of his divine sense, he detected a pervasive killing aura in the vicinity, which had utterly extinguished all signs of life in the environment.
Overhead, dark clouds plummeted, bringing an almost suffocating pressure that immediately reminded Qiu Changtian of his own dire straits during his tribulation.
Suddenly, a silver-white thunder dragon burst through the clouds, plunging straight towards Qiu Changtian!
Cursing inwardly, Qiu Changtian quickly summoned the Green Duckweed Sword and, in a flash of man-sword unity, dodged to the side.
Yet, the thunder dragon turned abruptly as if sentient, narrowly missing the ground and continuing its pursuit of Qiu Changtian.
Feeling helpless, Qiu Changtian realized this trial was not testing his combat skills, so he took out Thor’s Hammer and Thor’s Awl, channeling his True Yuan and striking forcefully.
After forming his First Grade Golden Core, his previously insufficient True Yuan was significantly relieved.
A much larger silver-white thunder dragon, squeezed itself out from Thor’s Awl, its massive body filled with energy as it collided with its opponent.
The two dragons entwined, clashing and tearing at each other amid rolling thunder and flashes of lightning.
Observing closely, Qiu Changtian was alarmed to find that his Tai Xiao Thunder could not overcome the opponent’s!
“Sword Master, look closely,” said the Green Duckweed Sword with a low chuckle, “Your Tai Xiao Thunder is not as refined as your opponent’s.”
“Indeed,” Qiu Changtian sharply realized after scanning that a layer of fine scales existed on the surface of the opponent’s Tai Xiao Thunder Dragon.

To be precise, 98 percent of this dragon’s body was composed of fierce and vast thunder, but around 2 percent of the lightning on the outer layer formed a fine and concentrated net.
This scale-like net contained the rampant thunder, creating a more refined divine dragon form.
Each time it collided with Qiu Changtian’s Tai Xiao Thunder Dragon, the scales, once torn and ruptured, would direct the compressed lightning to burst forth, causing severe damage to his thunder dragon.
As he had studied formations, Qiu Changtian immediately raised Thor’s Awl and Thor’s Hammer again and began intricately manipulating his True Yuan, striking the magic artifact while using his formation skills to draw restraining scales around the dragon’s body.
This time, the dragon forged by Thor’s Awl emerged more slowly but its figure was much more refined, and it now had a layer of fine scales on its surface before pouncing towards its opponent.
The opposing thunder dragon had just shredded Qiu Changtian’s first Tai Xiao Thunder before fiercely turning to strike again, clashing with the second, improved Tai Xiao Thunder.
“Eh, how can it still not win?” Qiu Changtian watched again, only to discover his second Tai Xiao Thunder was still inferior to the thunder dragon generated by the environment.
Upon close inspection, he realized that the scales and the body of the opposing thunder dragon were interconnected as one.
Whenever the surface scales were torn open by external force, they would draw a thread of energy from the inner tempest to rapidly repair the damaged net.
In contrast, once the surface of Qiu Changtian’s second Tai Xiao Thunder was damaged, that section of restraint completely failed, letting the nearby thunder energy dissipate substantially.
“So, it’s not just about restraining, but also about repairing,” said the Green Duckweed Sword thoughtfully, “In isolation, Yin cannot grow; alone, Yang cannot arise.
Unrestrained thunder certainly cannot last long, but overly constrained thunder cannot be maintained either.”
“Why didn’t you say that earlier?” Qiu Changtian said helplessly, gathering his True Yuan once more to unleash his third Tai Xiao Thunder.
For other Golden Core Realm Soul Storing Rank cultivators, using two or three spells would have depleted their True Yuan, but Qiu Changtian had a First Grade Golden Core, which meant both his True Yuan capacity and recovery rate were much higher than his peers, leaving him still with substantial reserves.
The design of this third Thunder Dragon was even more intricate, with scales covering its surface and binding the Thunder Light within its body, as well as a very fine network of channels, extending from various points on the surface deep into the flesh.
???G0.??
Once the outer scales were damaged by a collision, the channels would draw out a portion of the rampant Thunder Light within, condense it, and compress it into refined Thunder Light to repair the damaged areas on the surface.
The price was that the Thunder Dragon’s Thor’s Awl’s spitting time was extended to three times the original duration, and the precision required of the Divine Sense was extraordinarily high.
Even Qiu Changtian, blessed with the talent of Daoist Heart Clarity, who could easily enter the state of “focused concentration” and “undisturbed by external matters,” was now breaking out in profuse sweat.
Finally, the third colossal dragon was complexly woven into existence, lunging at the silver-white dragon opposite it.
Qiu Changtian breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, It seems that not only Tai Xiao Thunder, but other Thunder Methods could also be modified in this way.
First, lay out an Array on the surface layer to ensure that the primary Thunder energy is compacted, bound, and refined within;
Next, design a repair system for the Array, making it even more difficult to be destroyed by external forces.
As a result, the Thunder Method would be more concealed when executed, less likely to be intercepted midway, and the explosive power upon hitting the enemy would be vastly increased.
In the Secret Realm, Qiu Changtian casually cast spells, learned, and mimicked, repeatedly optimizing his own Tai Xiao Thunder.
On the other hand, Xu Yinglian was almost in a state of complete disarray, looking extremely disheveled.
The Nine Doubts Yang Manglei’s Floating Light Golden Fire technique was a Daoist Magic that incorporated both Metal and Fire Systems.
From the perspective of the Five Elements, the Fire System overcomes the Metal System, making it difficult for them to coexist, hence the Metal-Fire double-element Daoist Magic is extremely rare.
Yet, this Daoist Magic took a different approach, using Xin Metal to restrain Bing Fire.
The dense Xin Metal could temporarily contain and resist the erosion of the internal Bing Fire; the violent Bing Fire, once exploded, would scatter the Xin Metal fragments in all directions.
From the outside, it looked like Xu Yinglian was launching a ray of light that exploded upon hitting the enemy.
The enemy’s corpse would be sliced into countless pieces by the Xin Metal, then melted into slag under the scorch of the Bing Fire.
Powerful as it was and valuable to learn and master, the only problem was that Xu Yinglian did not possess the meticulous scanning ability of the Kunlun Mirror, nor the theoretical analysis level of the Green Duckweed Sword-although the Phoenix senior could scan and analyze, its level was indeed lacking by comparison.
“You got it wrong, you should first soften the Xin Metal until it’s semi-molten…
See, it exploded again, didn’t it?”
Xu Yinglian, quick to react, would immediately stop the spell if anything went wrong, but since the ray was emitted from her palm, she could not avoid being affected by the blast, her waterfall-like black hair nearly scorched beyond recognition.
Frustrated, she drew the Feather Jia Sword, fiercely cut off her charred hair, and flung it to the ground, her eyes blazing with an even more intense fighting spirit.
It’s just a Daoist Magic, right?
I must learn it!
I can definitely master it!
As she strenuously battled in the Secret Realm, Shi Liuli sat under the night sky, holding a delicate compass in her hand, lost in thought.
The name of the Magic Artifact compass was “Liangyi Chengguang Stellar Position Compass,” a rather complicated Art Calculation method, which could deduce the Dao through Stellar Phenomena, totally different from the copper coin divination she had learned from Kuocang Mountain Secret Realm.
To put it precisely, copper coin divination excelled at calculating “events,” whereas Stellar Position Deduction was adept at calculating “people.”
And the person she had been fixated on all along wasn’t anyone else but her own husband, Master Jingyun Luo Yan.
