Realm-Hopping Martial Master

As the demon wings flapped, Jiang Shu's figure suddenly shuddered, leaving behind a solid afterimage at the original spot, while his true form disappeared without a trace in an instant.

In the next moment, the Qi Swallowing Vientiane Fist, emanating a crushing aura over the heavens and earth, descended with a roar, shattering the afterimage with immense force, causing the void to tremble violently, directly tearing open a space rift spanning a hundred feet in all directions!

Seeing Jiang Shu abruptly vanish from sight, the clone closely followed, and behind him, a pair of starry wings surged out.

However, just as he was about to pursue Jiang Shu.

"Roar!!"

In the vast starry sky, a dragon roar faintly echoed across the horizon, and an aura containing Supreme Dragon Might suddenly swept the heavens and earth!

Deep in the distant nebula, the rolling thunder light seemed attracted by this Qi Mechanism, erupting violently, madly rushing towards this place, almost turning this void into a sea of thunder!

At the center of the vast thunder, a hundred-foot Heavenly Dragon's shadow slowly rose. Its muscular and majestic dragon body was surrounded by the power of nine Great Dao, intertwining with the omnipresent Dragon Might, exuding an earth-shattering pressure and displaying an unmatched and domineering aura!

As if it were a Heavenly Dragon with mastery over lightning, the dragon shadow had almost become substantial, with its entire body of dragon scales gleaming fiercely, devoid of any illusory feel.

On the fierce dragon claw, the terrifying power of Great Dao permeated as Jiang Shu's deep gaze was fixed on the clone ahead, crashing down with a boom!

The Thunder Sea roared with a great quake, and the endless thunder light exploded entirely along with his offensive!

Under the shadow of the dragon claw, the clone's hesitation lasted only a moment. Sensing Jiang Shu's domineering onslaught approaching, it instantly responded by standing firm and facing it!

"Boom!" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

In an instant, the fierce battle erupted; the power of Great Dao clashed and Primordial Power surged wildly. The aftermath of the fierce exchange between the two turned into torrents that rushed in all directions.

The terrifying aftermath spread, causing the surrounding stars to tremble unceasingly. Cracks formed in the vast lands upon the stars, leaving deep and menacing chasms.

Each moment, there were starry mountains collapsing and annihilated under this destructive fluctuation!

Extreme brilliance erupted on the Seventh Floor of the Eternal Tower.

It was as if stars exploded in burning flames.

"Bang!"

Under the clone's violent offensive, the Heavenly Dragon shadow that Jiang Shu had transformed into shook violently and, with a loud crash, burst into a sky full of chaotic light.

Once again appearing from the void, Jiang Shu's face was pale, his aura fluctuating violently, his surging blood raging incessantly, and more than half of his Primordial Power was depleted.

On the other hand, the clone facing him, although displaying some wounds, they were inconsequential, and it still managed to maintain near-peak combat prowess.

Clearly, from the exchange, the difference in strength was apparent.

The clone had increased its combat power by not just one point six times.

In the control and blending of Primordial Power and spiritual power, it was superior to Jiang Shu.

After all, at this moment, Jiang Shu had just entered the Vientiane Realm not long ago, and his control over his power still had many weak points.

It seems that exploration can only end here.

Sensing the Power of Great Dao surging from the clone, about to launch a formidable onslaught, Jiang Shu's eyes subtly focused, and with a thought, a Mysterious Space fluctuated, suddenly appearing around him, enveloping him entirely.

Just as the clone launched its attack, Jiang Shu's figure vanished abruptly within this enveloping spatial wave.

Swoosh!

At this moment, a piercing gust swept through the void, stirring ripples, and the clone's lunging figure abruptly halted. The surging Primordial Power and Power of Great Dao around it instantly settled, and its form began to fade away at this time.

The fierce battle subsided, and the violent Heaven and Earth Primordial Power in the vast starry sky of the Seventh Floor of the Eternal Tower fell silent once again. The starry heavens resumed their flickering and weaving, forming a hazy cluster of stellar light.

Only the drifting fragmented stars in the void faintly revealed a remnant of fearsome power fluctuations.

...

Several days later.

On the outskirts of the Thunder Sea, the void rippled with fluctuations, and a narrow space rift was abruptly torn open by an invisible force, revealing Jiang Shu's tall and straight figure emerging from it.

"Phew..."

Having exited the Eternal Tower, Jiang Shu chose to enter the Thunder Sea once more.

During the previous battle, he felt that he could make further progress in the Thunder Dao.

It was time to enter the inner circle of the Thunder Sea.

An elixir was ingested, and under the catalysis of the Primordial Power within his body, the surging medicinal power immediately spread through his limbs and bones.

While on the Seventh Floor of the Eternal Tower, though not severely injured, some minor injuries lingered within his body.

If he didn't consume an elixir and relied solely on self-recovery, it might take nearly a month.

Unfortunately, though he comprehended these nine Great Dao, all were more inclined towards offensive.

In terms of healing, he wasn't particularly adept.

The Five Elements Dao and Thunder Dao circulated around him.

Accompanied by the elixir, nurtured by Vitality Power, the internal and external injuries from the battle against the clone began to slowly recover with his breathing rhythm.

"That clone's strength is indeed extraordinary, with my current power, defeating it to pass the Seventh Floor of the Eternal Tower seems still insufficient."

In a low whisper, Jiang Shu's eyes flickered slightly, gradually gaining some insight.

However, what he needed to do now wasn't just to quickly improve his cultivation, for the strength the clone possessed would also rise as his cultivation grew.

For now, what was most crucial was improving his control over his own power. Since advancing to the Vientiane Realm, whether in the activation of Power of Great Dao or the display of various Divine Skills, though formidable, it was primarily based on his formidable cultivation, still far from the Perfect Realm to unleash the utmost potential.

What he needed to elevate now was to quickly adapt to the surging power within, to seamlessly integrate it, thereby enhancing combat strength, aiming to defeat that clone on the Seventh Floor of the Eternal Tower sooner.

"It seems it's time to enter the depths for some cultivation."

With a plan in mind, Jiang Shu immediately closed his eyes to focus, immersing himself entirely in healing, accelerating the refining of the medicinal power.

Two days passed in a blur.

As Jiang Shu thoroughly absorbed and refined the medicinal power, subtle ripples of Primordial Power emerged around him, and his internal injuries completely healed. A majestic aura emanated through him, pervading the sky.

Dispelling the seal in his hand, Jiang Shu rose to his full height, and his figure abruptly transformed into a stream of light, speeding towards the distant horizon.

At this moment, near the inner circle of the Thunder Sea, cultivators spread out as they usually did, scattered throughout the Thunder Sea, maintaining distance from one another, each engaged in diligent cultivation and comprehension.

Suddenly, in the distant horizon, streams of light crossed the sky, and a profound, unfathomable majesty of overwhelming aura came from afar, causing a wave of unease among the cultivators in the Thunder Sea. Their forms trembled involuntarily, and they all opened their eyes, gazing in perplexity and uncertainty in the direction of the astonishing aura.

"This aura is... a Tenth Rank Expert?!"

"Who is this?! Which Tenth Rank Expert has suddenly arrived at the Thunder Sea?!"

"Tsk tsk, aside from those few in the deepest part, it's been quite a century since a Tenth Rank Expert graced the Thunder Sea, hasn't it?"

"Mainly because only the Thunder Origin in the inner circle of the Thunder Sea could attract a Tenth Rank Expert. It's hard to know where this great being hails from? Why does it feel like there's a familiar aura, as if it's been sensed before?"

"..."

Exclamations of shock or amazement echoed continually from within the Thunder Sea.

Numerous gazes rioted intensely, fixated on the dazzling stream of light swiftly approaching from the sky, while expressions in the myriad pairs of eyes shifted continuously with light flickering.

Until this figure halted and revealed its aura.

They sensed an incredibly magnificent yet familiar power fluctuation, and instantly, a cry of astonishment sounded from one of the cultivators present.

The mysterious expert's sudden arrival was bound to incite fierce waves throughout and beyond the Thunder Sea!
