Standing before the Immortal Thunder Hall, the three felt as insignificant as ants.
The grand gate alone was a hundred zhang high.
Qin Han Chu led the other two to the gate and exerted a surge of power to push it open.
His intention was merely to test the gate's strength, but to his surprise, the gentle push caused it to swing inward.
Or rather, it seemed to open on its own.
Qin Han Chu glanced at the other two and then walked forward first.
The moment they stepped through the gate, the scene before them changed.
The original passageway transformed into a vast expanse.
Crackling sounds filled the air.
In the distance, a large thunder pool lay before them.
Streams of lightning intertwined and collided.
Through the dense bolts of electricity, Qin Han Chu spotted a purple wooden branch floating within.
This must be the Immortal Thunderwood that the Ten Thousand Realms Treasure Pavilion desired.
"This is the Purple Heaven Immortal Thunder!"
"Master, this Purple Heaven Immortal Thunder is an anomaly within the Raging Thunder Laws, possessing immense power."
"If you absorb it, you can cultivate the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder Laws."
Qin Han Chu's eyes gleamed with excitement.
The rewards from this expedition were truly immense.
If he could refine it, would he be able to step into the Immortal Realm?
"How do I retrieve it? The lightning in this pool seems incredibly strong."
Qin Han Chu conversed with Mu Qing Sword Spirit.
"The Suanni Immortal Bone should be able to absorb the Raging Thunder Laws within the thunder pool."
Following Mu Qing Sword Spirit's guidance, Qin Han Chu said to Ya Wen and the other, "Wait for me here."
Han Yue and Ya Wen wisely retreated.
They did not wish for Qin Han Chu to misunderstand.
Arriving at the edge of the thunder pool, Qin Han Chu summoned the Suanni Immortal Bone!
Under Mu Qing Sword Spirit's instruction, Qin Han Chu gently activated the Suanni Immortal Bone.
The Suanni Immortal Bone rotated and entered the thunder pool, then, like a sponge, it rapidly absorbed the lightning within.
"What is this now?"
"I don't know, but the lightning in this thunder pool is likely a Law Force as well. Its ability to absorb Law Force indicates it is also an immortal artifact."
"His luck is too good, having two immortal artifacts on him."
"They must have both been found in this world."
"Could there be other immortal artifacts here? After all, it's called the Immortal Slaying Realm, so many powerful Immortal Realm experts must have died here, right?"
Han Yue and the other discussed through telepathic communication.
It took a full seven days for the lightning in the thunder pool to be completely depleted.
After absorbing the lightning, the Suanni Immortal Bone's radiance intensified, imbued with terrifying power.
Qin Han Chu made a gesture, and the Suanni Immortal Bone returned to his arm, while the Immortal Thunderwood landed in his hand.
The moment Qin Han Chu grasped the Immortal Thunderwood, a colossal projection materialized before him.
The projection was of an incomparably majestic middle-aged man, whose gaze fell upon Qin Han Chu: "Sign the Oath of Dao pact and receive my inheritance; otherwise, you shall remain in this realm forever!"
As the projection spoke, a golden contract flew from it and appeared before Qin Han Chu.
Qin Han Chu looked at the contract, and its contents materialized before him.
The contract bore the name of the Lord of the Immortal Slaying Realm and a brief outline of his life.
Beyond these details lay the true nature of the contract.
It turned out that this individual had been killed while vying for the Immortal Thunderwood.
If Qin Han Chu signed the contract, he would be bound to this debt of revenge.
Of course, the contract stipulated that he could seek revenge when he possessed sufficient strength.
At this moment, Qin Han Chu had no other choice.
If he refused to sign the contract, he feared he would not be able to leave.
There was likely some kind of restriction on the Immortal Thunderwood.
If Qin Han Chu refused, the Immortal Thunderwood might be destroyed.
Since he had no choice, he had to sign.
As Qin Han Chu imprinted his spiritual consciousness, the Oath of Dao pact transformed into light and merged into Qin Han Chu's nascent soul.
"Immortal Saint level?"
"This is his strength from tens of thousands of years ago?"
"He must be at least in the Lesser Immortal God realm by now?"
"If there are realms above the Immortal God realm, he might have surpassed the Immortal Realm."
"When will I ever reach this level?"
"Fortunately, there's no time limit, so I can take it easy."
As the Oath of Dao pact integrated into his nascent soul, information about the being's enemies also entered Qin Han Chu's memory.
Following this, a token flew into Qin Han Chu's hand.
The token bore the inscription "Immortal Slaying Realm," and it served as the key to controlling entry and exit.
Without Qin Han Chu needing to drip blood to claim it, a connection had already been established between him and the token.
Qin Han Chu surmised this was related to the Oath of Dao pact.
By signing the pact, he had, in essence, gained ownership of the Immortal Slaying Realm.
Qin Han Chu's spiritual sense probed the token, and he discovered that it not only controlled entry and exit but also the Immortal Thunder Hall.
The Immortal Thunder Hall was not an immortal artifact; it was more like this person's personal abode.
Within it were a library of scriptures, a storage pavilion, and rooms for housing immortal artifacts.
"I will first send you two back outside the Poison Rain Forest. Once I break through my cultivation, I will naturally send you away."
As the words fell, Han Yue and Ya Wen were teleported out of the Immortal Thunder Hall by Qin Han Chu.
Through the token of the Immortal Slaying Realm, Qin Han Chu could control the entire Immortal Thunder Hall.
He could control the location of anyone or anything within the Immortal Thunder Hall.
"What is this Immortal Slaying Realm? Is it a separate world or an immortal artifact?"
Qin Han Chu asked.
Mu Qing Sword Spirit replied, "It was refined by a powerful expert skilled in spatial laws. Typically, they select a Great World or a Medium World, refine it, and then seal it within a token."
"Refining an entire Great World into a storage world?"
Qin Han Chu found it incredible. How powerful was that?
A Great World could be refined into an immortal artifact's space!
"Yes, you will understand when you cultivate Law."
Qin Han Chu nodded and sat cross-legged, beginning to absorb the Purple Heaven Immortal Thunder Laws from the Immortal Thunderwood.
Although Qin Han Chu longed to return to his wife and daughter, he feared the Ten Thousand Realms Treasure Pavilion seeking trouble.
Having now learned the Art of Dragon Seeking, there was no longer a need for him to trade with the Ten Thousand Realms Treasure Pavilion.
Upon achieving the Immortal Realm, even if people from the Ten Thousand Realms Treasure Pavilion came looking for him, Qin Han Chu would have the qualification to resist.
As Qin Han Chu absorbed it, the Immortal Thunderwood transformed into the Purple Heaven Immortal Thunder Laws and entered Qin Han Chu's Sea of Consciousness.
Time flew by, and five years had passed.
At this moment, Qin Han Chu had already reached the Immortal Realm.
After integrating the Purple Heaven Immortal Thunder Laws, a halo appeared behind Qin Han Chu's nascent soul. This halo was a purple lightning bolt, representing the Purple Heaven Immortal Thunder Laws.
Having spent so many years here, Baili Caixia had grown into a young lady!
Because of this, he had missed the prime years of his daughter's growth.
With a wave of his hand, Qin Han Chu tossed the Ten Thousand Realms Treasure Pavilion's token into the Poison Rain Forest.
Under the corrosive effects of the poison mist, the token quickly turned to dust.
After completing this task, Qin Han Chu then activated the Immortal Slaying Token to leave.
Opening his eyes, Qin Han Chu found himself back at the location where he had first entered the Immortal Slaying Realm.
The Immortal Slaying Token was now in Qin Han Chu's hand.
