Chapter 313 A Tragic Past
As Yun Muhan and Yan Wu continued to climb the Hongmeng Road, they gradually discovered the weaknesses of the lightning creatures.
Whenever a lightning creature attacks, its body briefly exposes the core of its lightning orb, which is both the source of its power and its fatal weakness.
Yun Muhan and Yan Wu worked together seamlessly, their collaboration appearing as if they had practiced countless times.
Whenever the lightning creatures launch an attack, Yanwu uses his greatsword to attract their attention. His movements are swift and precise, and every swing of his sword forces the lightning creatures to focus their attention on him.
Meanwhile, Yun Muhan took the opportunity to absorb their core lightning orbs with his gourd. His gourd played a crucial role at this moment; it could not only absorb the power of lightning, but also weaken the power of the lightning creatures at critical moments.
In a perfectly coordinated attack, Yun Muhan successfully absorbed the core lightning ball of a dragon that had taken the form of lightning.
After losing its core lightning orb, the dragon immediately transformed into a bolt of lightning and vanished into the air, as if it had never existed.
This scene shocked both Yun Muhan and Yan Wu, but it also strengthened their resolve to continue moving forward.
They used the same method to defeat the other lightning creatures one by one.
Every battle tested their reaction speed and combat skills, but Yun Muhan and Yan Wu both demonstrated extraordinary abilities.
Their movements became increasingly fluid, and each coordinated attack more precise, until the last lightning creature was defeated.
As the lightning creatures dissipated, the storm on the Primordial Path gradually subsided, allowing Yun Muhan and Yan Wu to catch their breath. They knew this was just an interlude on the Primordial Path, and many more challenges awaited them ahead.
But they were also more convinced that as long as they remained vigilant and supported each other, there were no difficulties they could not overcome. Their figures continued to advance on the path to Hongmeng, steadfast and fearless.
During a break in the climb, Yanwu began to tell Yun Muhan about his past. His voice carried a hint of melancholy: "Brother Xingxie, do you know why I came here? I used to be an ordinary blacksmith in a small village, hammering iron on the anvil every day, living a mundane and monotonous life."
Yun Muhan listened as he walked, his steps steady, as if keeping time for Yan Wu's story. "What made you decide to embark on the path of cultivation?"
A resolute glint flashed in Yanwu's eyes: "It was my wife and children. They were killed by a group of passing bandits. From that moment on, I vowed to become stronger, so strong that no one could harm those around me."
Dugu Jianling: ...Just like you!
Yun Muhan: Perhaps!
Yun Muhan was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I'm sorry to hear your story, Brother Yanwu. Your determination and courage are admirable."
Yan Wu sighed, but there was no sadness in his eyes, only determination and resolve: "So I began to cultivate, transforming from an ordinary blacksmith into a cultivator. I used my greatsword to protect many innocent people and defeat many villains. But now, what I want is not just power, but the power to protect the entire Western Divine Realm."
Yun Muhan nodded, his voice carrying a hint of resonance: "We are all pursuing greater power to protect the people and land we love. That's why we're here."
They continued their climb, and Yanwu's story gave them even more motivation.
After absorbing the core of the lightning creature, Yun Muhan's gourd seemed to become more active, and its light became brighter, illuminating the path ahead for them.
“Brother Xingxie, your gourd is truly a magical artifact,” Yanwu exclaimed again. “It not only helped us defeat the lightning creature, but also provided us with light and heat.”
Dugu Jianling: This gourd is of the same origin as me. Although I don't remember who my original owner was, I can be sure that it was one of the five primordial gods.
Yun Muhan: Are you stupid? You're just like this gourd, just like the Elemental Transformation Divine Scripture. Who created the Elemental Transformation Divine Scripture? Aren't you the one who created it?
Dugu Jianling: That makes sense. The Elemental Transformation Divine Scripture is... Yang! By the way, you can't be Yang's child, can you?
Yun Muhan: What makes you say that?
Dugu Jianling: First, you can easily master the Elemental Transformation Divine Scripture. Second, this gourd can unleash its strongest power in your hands. Third, you clearly possess the power to wield the Qiankun Painting Brush, yet you are unable to use it.
Yun Muhan: Nonsense! The Elementalization Divine Scripture isn't powerful because I'm its master, is it? The gourd is powerful because I'm its master. Besides, the Qiankun Painting Brush hasn't acknowledged me as its master either.
Dugu Jianling pondered. Yun Muhan's understanding was correct, but it was clearly... so familiar.
Yun Muhan smiled slightly, gently stroking the gourd and feeling its warmth: "Yes, it is indeed a treasure. But more importantly, it allowed me to meet a partner like you."
Yanwu laughed heartily, his laughter echoing along the Hongmeng Road, bringing a touch of ease and joy to this arduous journey. "Then let's continue together, Xingxie brother. No matter how difficult this road is, we will climb to the top together."
