Chapter Eighty-Seven News of the Nature Spirit Teachings

  News of Nature Religion

  "Alright, now you believe what I said, right?" Zhou Yuan sighed and said. He believed that as his identity as a Thunder System Mage was revealed in front of more and more people, one day the entire Middle State Continent would know of his existence.

  When the time comes, it will also be his troublesome time.

  Ximo nodded, "I believe you, with your Lei system mage's strength, indeed have the power to defeat the killing life boundary at the Jin Dan boundary."

  "Anyway, thank you for saving my life. If there's a chance in the future, I will definitely return this favor to you." Zhou Yuan said sincerely.

  Ximo Lie shook his head, "No need to, our battle at this level is not something a small Golden Dan realm cultivator like you can intervene in. I think the day I saved you was just a trivial matter, don't keep it on your mind."

  Zhou Yuan smiled and did not refute again. He believed that it wouldn't be long before he would shock this middle-aged man. At present, Zhou Yuan was indeed only in the Golden Core realm, but it wouldn't be long, perhaps five years, perhaps three years, or maybe even shorter, before he could catch up with this middle-aged man's realm.

  "May I ask who you people are? If one day I want to repay you, I also need to know how to find you."

  Hu Fenghuang sneered, "It doesn't matter if I tell you, but we won't have the chance to meet again. Even if you're a Thunder System mage, you can't help us in any way. I'm Hu Fenghuang, the princess of Huo Luo Country. He's our country's number one expert, Xi Mo Lie, and also the national teacher of Huo Luo Country."

  Zhou Yuan nodded, "So it's the princess and the national teacher, I'm truly sorry for the disrespect!"

  Ximoluo waved his hand, "No need to say more unnecessary words, we only saved you by coincidence. What's your plan next?"

  Zhou Yuan shook his head, "I don't have any plans, I came to Nan Huang just to temper myself, and engage in fierce battles with various powerful demonic beasts to enrich my combat experience. Only by fighting between life and death can I rapidly increase my strength."

  "Well said, young man, you have spirit." Xī Mò Liè praised, "You're absolutely right, as long as one undergoes trials and tribulations in life and death, they can rapidly increase their strength. At my age, I only reached the realm of killing intent after experiencing many hardships, yet you've already grasped this concept at the Golden Elixir stage, which is even more impressive than me."

  "Later generations are to be feared, a thunderous genius who cultivates the Thunder System, and his wisdom is also extremely high. Young man, your future achievements will be boundless..." Ximo said with a fierce smile.

  "Alright, Uncle Ximo, don't say any more to him. We still need to find a place to settle down. Da Qian country is out of the question and Huo Luo country is not suitable for living either. Can't we just find a place to stay in this vast southern wilderness?" Fenghuang began to complain discontentedly.

  Ximo nodded, "Alright, don't worry about this matter, I've already thought of it. I have a good relationship with the High Priest of the Nature God Sect. As long as we find their stronghold, we can temporarily reside there without any issues. Young one, if you don't have anywhere to go, you can also come with us to the Nature God Sect."

  Zhou Yuan shook his head, "If everything was easy and enjoyable, I wouldn't have to go through trials and tribulations. Senior, you mentioned the Natural God Sect, which is a sect that worships the gods of nature. I remember reading records that said the Natural God Sect had already become extinct over a hundred years ago, so how can it still exist?"

  Zhou Yuan had seen information about the Nature Spirit Church in a book, which was a church that only a few people believed in. They believed in the gods of nature, and their powers were also very mysterious, not coming from the seven elements of earth, water, fire, wind, light, darkness, and thunder, but from the purest power of nature.

  They can draw power from nature, for example, they are in the southern wilderness, where there are countless towering ancient trees, and they have the ability to command these ancient trees to attack their enemies.

  The book records that as early as a hundred years ago, the Natural God Sect had already disappeared. Who would have thought that in the southern wilderness, Zhou Yuan was still fortunate enough to hear news of the Natural God Sect.

  "Exactly, it's the Natural God Sect. A hundred years ago, on the Central Plains Continent, various sects rose up, and at that time, the Natural Sect was still the largest. However, they were surrounded by the Seven Elemental Sects that emerged later and ultimately defeated. But they didn't perish; instead, they retreated into the Southern Wilderness, like a wounded beast, and reopened their own territory."

  "So that's how it was. I never understood why the once powerful Tianxia First Divine Sect, the Natural Sect, would suddenly disappear from the Zhongzhou continent overnight. It turns out they were surrounded by the combined forces of all seven elemental sects and were forced to retreat. So that's how it was..." Upon hearing Xi Mo say this, Zhou Yuan felt like he had finally solved a puzzle that had been on his mind.

  "You go, naturally taught, will be destroyed by the seven elements of the later rising school, they can accept you, it's not easy, I'm a stranger, I don't think I'll get their welcome, and my purpose for coming to Nanhuang hasn't been achieved yet, I need to work hard on my cultivation, now I'm still far from my goal."

  Upon hearing Zhou Yuan's words, Xi Mu Lao's interest was piqued instead. "Your goal? You still have a goal after coming to the Southern Wilderness for training? You're currently at the Golden Core stage, so what is your goal? What stage do you want to cultivate to before leaving the Southern Wilderness? The Killing Life Stage? I believe that with your current strength, you're not far from the Killing Life Stage."

  "No, I want to cultivate until the fifth level of the Magic Realm, the realm of Lingkong Xuvu, before leaving Nanhuang. A mage who can't fly isn't a true mage. At least, I must cultivate until the realm of Lingkong Xuvu before leaving Nanhuang." Zhou Yuan said firmly.

  "With determination, so be it. We won't force you anymore. You can continue to cultivate on your own. We'll head to the Natural Spirit Sect now. If fate permits, I believe we'll meet again someday." Ximo Lie said, standing up and supporting Huo Fenghuang as they prepared to leave.

  Suddenly, Zhou Yuan felt as if the surroundings had become much colder.

  It's early summer now, the sky and earth are hot, there is no cold feeling at all. Even after a heavy rain, it will only make people feel cool, not cold at all. There is something wrong...

  Ximolü's face turned cold, "You've come, now get out! Sneaking around like a turtle with its head withdrawn!"

  "Haha..." A voice devoid of emotion came from the ninth heaven, transmitted down, and the icy, ruthless voice made Zhou Yuan feel like he was falling into an ice cave.

  "Ximolang, you're the number one master of Huoluo, how can you be like a stray dog, escaping from Huoluo to Dagan and then from Dagan to Nanhuang? Are you going to keep running away forever? As the top master of Huoluo, don't you even care about this bit of dignity?"

  In the void, a white figure slowly floated down, with a large amount of ice crystals falling around his body. When the sunlight shone on him, he was dazzlingly brilliant.

  "Ice War!! The Ice King's brother, I never thought you'd personally come to the Southern Wilderness to hunt me down?" Ximo Lie was shocked and pale, this person in front of him, he also had a past encounter with.

  At first, Huo Luo country was a vassal of Da Qian, and every year at the end of the year, they would bring a large number of treasures to pay tribute to Da Qian. One time, it was Xi Mo Lie who led the team to pay tribute, and at that time, the lord of Da Qian had introduced him to several people, these few people were also famous in Da Qian, Bing Zhan was one of them.

  "You're wrong, I'm not here to kill you. I've come to invite you back. I am the eleventh prince of Da Qian, and I have a deep affection for Princess Huo Feng. My heart's desire is to be with her, but unexpectedly, she turned out to be so mischievous and escaped to this place. This time, I'm following the emperor's orders to bring you back."

  Bing Zhan's words were polite, but his tone was pressing and menacing, without a hint of courtesy. He had come to take Huo Feng Huang back and force her to marry the eleventh prince.

  "Hmph, Ice War, you're also overestimating yourself. You're just like me, a carefree realm's mage. Do you have the ability to capture me and the princess? Today, I'll clearly tell you that we won't be going back to Daqian Country or Huolu Country again."

  Bing Zhan sneered, "You're right, we're both Loose Cultivators. Although I don't have the ability to do anything to you, what about her? She's just a mere Qi Refining stage cultivator. Capturing her would be as easy as turning my hand over. Do you think that with just you and that insignificant Golden Core stage brat, you can protect the Fire Phoenix? You're both naive. We're of the same realm, so neither of us can do anything to the other. However, I'm going to capture the Fire Phoenix, and you won't be able to stop me."

  "Whether you can stop me depends on your strength, whether it's enough to make me use my ultimate move!!!"

  "Alright, Seymour, I've been wanting to fight you for a long time. Today, let me see if you have the qualifications to be my opponent!!!" The icy war cry echoed through the air as he took off into the void with a single step.

  Man still in the void, icy war fist against Ximoluo burst out, immediately, a large number of ice crystals, swept towards Ximoluo.

  "Hubris!!!" Xī Mò Liè also flew up into the air, dodging the ice crystal's deadly strike. In his hand appeared a crystal longsword with intense aura on its blade, surging and receding unpredictably.

  "Fire Dance in the Sky!!!" Ximolang's sword slashed out in anger, immediately, rays of light shot out in all directions, finally gathering into a fiery dragon that danced wildly in mid-air, heading towards the icy war that shrouded the land.
