The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 485

Chapter 485: Chapter 481 Unprecedented Chapter 485: Chapter 481 Unprecedented Shen Luo clapped his hands together, a flash of golden light crossing his eyes, as his momentum instantly exploded around him.

Before the dragon-shaped lightning in his surroundings could get closer, the six pairs of golden dragons and elephants had already charged out. The golden light between them linked together, forming something akin to a golden city wall, pushing and repelling against all sides.

The surrounding dragon-shaped lightning struck, crashing against the golden “city wall”, immediately resulting in a series of earth-shaking roars. Countless golden electric lightning erupted from the point of collision, submerging an area within a thousand-foot-radius entirely.

In just the snap of a finger, Shen Luo's entire body, including the golden dragons and elephants, had been engulfed by the lightning, making them vanish from sight.

“He actually attracted the thunder pool to refine his body; he might very well be the one we have been waiting for…” A voice belonging to the Armored Heavenly General echoed once again from the great hall. Only this time, instead of his usually calm tone, it was full of surprise and joy.

Within the boundless thunder and lightning, strands of dragon-shaped lightning continually traversed from the clouds, continuously charging against the lightning engulfed region. As they exploded again and again, they further compressed the space of that region.

Within that thunder domain, the figures of the six dragons and elephants were forced to retreat continuously under the pressure. The electrifying light from all around was constantly gathering towards the center, pressing against Shen Luo in the middle.

Right in front, a hundred-foot-long enormous lightning-shaped golden dragon charged towards him with its mouth wide open, revealing intertwined electric threads and thunderous roaring voices, heading towards him with a biting attack.

Shen Luo felt this overwhelming momentum rushing towards him; rather than showing any signs of fear, it instead stirred up the unyielding spirit that had been within him ever since he was a child.

Overwhelmed by darkness, I scoured all the ends of the Earth!

Besieged by evil spirits, I fought to the death!

Short of lifespan, I tried my utmost to make up for it!

The threat of death has never been far away, yet the hope of survival has also never been given up.

It's just another test of life and death. As long as I don't admit defeat, no one in this world can make me bow down!

Shen Luo's fighting spirit soared within him, and he let out a battle cry.

In the next instant, the dragon and elephant phantoms surrounding him began to shrink and no longer resisted the thunder and lightning. Instead, they all merged into his body, making him glimmer with golden light, and a layer of dense golden scales appeared on the surface of his body.

With Shen Luo's eyes narrowing, he raised his Six Chen Whip in his hand. The Huangting Technique and the Nameless Method were operating at the same time. The Pure Yang Sword Qi within his body also gushed out and was fed into the black whip.

“Hah!”

Seeing that the lightning was about to strike, Shen Luo's eyes narrowed, and with a single hand forming a sword technique, he wielded his Six Chen Whip like a sword, unleashing a Wildfire Sky Raising technique, skewing upwards towards the sky.

In a flash, a sharp sword aura rang out as a massive sword shadow appeared on the Six Chen Whip, cleaving towards the Golden Lightning Dragon.

“Boom!” A booming sound echoed!

An exceedingly formidable sword aura ascended to the sky, stirring up cloud vapors within hundreds of feet. Lightning writhed about, and the Lightning Golden Dragon was penetrated by the sword, the void behind its body also tore open a hole that was enormous beyond belief, taking a while before closing up.

However, the dragon-shaped electric light surrounding him accelerated and rushed into Shen Luo's body in an instant.

“Zzz!”

A series of electric sparks flickered. Shen Luo was enveloped by thunder and lightning, causing his whole body to become dazzlingly bright.

Unknown time had passed when the thunderous roars finally ceased, all anomalies gradually faded away, and a figure slowly descended from above The Golden Palace, his whole body shrouded in a layer of brilliant light–it was Shen Luo.

At this moment, his eyes were closed tightly, he was sitting cross-legged with his hands resting on his knees, his black hair erect towards the sky, his clothes wavering until he touched the ground, then it slowly fell down.

After a few moments, he slowly opened his eyes, his eyes glittering, looking vibrant.

“Being favored by the Heavenly Dao and granted the opportunity to be tempered by the sea of thunder is no easy feat. The weight of your True Immortal body and the firmness of your foundation surpass most immortals.” At this time, a voice sounded.

Shen Luo turned his head and saw the face of the Armored Heavenly General coming to life once again, speaking directly to him.

He looked down at his own arm upon hearing this, seeing the skin as shiny and smooth as jade, and the color of his bones changed from the pale golden of when he first entered the True Immortal Realm to a richer gold color now.

“Elder, what happened with this thunder tribulation?” Shen Luo asked.

“Even though the Heavenly Tribulation is managed by the Law Enforcement Heavenly Soldiers, it is indeed controlled by the Heavenly Dao. Why it happened prematurely, I do not know. It could be because of the unique aura you possess, or it might be due to the irregular operations of the Heavenly Dao after the disaster of demons. Nevertheless, seeing the outcome, you have survived the test of the Heavenly Tribulation and gained a lot from it.” The Armored Heavenly General replied.

“Is that so?” Shen Luo questioned in his heart.

“Throughout this endless time, there have been innumerable strong contenders on the Ascending to Immortality Road. However, among those who acted like you during the Heavenly Tribulation are rare. I remember only a few.” The Armored Heavenly General didn't continue his explanation and instead stated this.

“Acted like me?” Shen Luo asked in confusion.

“Daring to refine symbols with the Thunder of Heavenly Tribulation, such a deed has never been done before nor will it be done in the future. In the past, only a pig demon from the lower realm dared to devour the Heavenly Thunder with a Gluttonous Mouth during Crossing Tribulation.” The Armored Heavenly General explained.

“There are such heroes…” Shen Luo exclaimed after listening.

“Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dao is now collapsed and the Heavenly Court no longer exists, naturally there's no way to register your immortal status. You can only become a Freelance Immortal now.” The Armored Heavenly General didn't continue the previous topic and went on saying.

“May I ask what a Freelance Immortal is?” Shen Luo asked with some confusion.

“You are from Mount Fangcun and you don't even know this?” The Armored Heavenly General questioned in surprise.

“With all due respect, Mount Fangcun has long been destroyed, and the Huangting Technique I learned wasn't passed down directly from the sect, but acquired fortuitously.” Shen Luo explained.

However, deep down, he still considered himself a part of Mount Fangcun.

“Those who have their names recorded in the immortal register and are part of the Heavenly Court's jurisdiction are called Heavenly Immortals. Those who are not recorded in the immortal register are called Freelance Immortals.” The Armored Heavenly General, after a moment of silence without inquiring about the Divine Gate, explained.

“So the difference between these two is just their affiliation?” Shen Luo continued to ask.

“Heavenly Immortals have the support and protection of the Heavenly Court, naturally their immortal path is smoother and less risky. However, they have to serve under the Heavenly Court, carrying out duties and responsibilities. Thus, they are not very free. Freelance Immortals, although not protected by the Heavenly Court, are freer as they don't have the obligation to fulfill any duties. They both have their own merit.” The Armored Heavenly General explained.

“This is just like the difference between Freelance Cultivators and the Cultivators of a Sect. In this regard, Heavenly Immortals seem to be more formidable.” Shen Luo pondered aloud.

“Not necessarily, there are many powerful individuals among the Freelance Immortals who have mastered and refined the blessed cavernous realms, which can compete with Heavenly Immortals. They are known as Earth Immortals. For example, the ancestor master of Mount Fangcun, Bodhi Ancestor, and the Town Primordial Great Immortal of Wuzhuang View, belong to this category.” The Armored Heavenly General explained.

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo suddenly understood.
