Chapter 205: The Remnant Soul in the Lightning-Struck Wood, Wen Zhong Breaks Through the List of Gods, and the Statue of the Burning Lamp
"This demon beast has actually reached the state of thunder and lightning. It is really not simple."

Wen Zhong was surprised.

"His realm should be about to enter the Quasi-Saint realm."

Yang Jiao reminded from the side.

"Who are you? Are you here to strike the tree with lightning?"

Thunderbird transformed and spoke.

Yang Jiao revealed his identity.

"I am the Heavenly God of War, a disciple of Emperor Huaguang, Yang Jiao."

When the Thunderbird heard the name of Heaven, he was not afraid.

"I have nothing to do with the Heavenly Court. If you want to fight for the Lightning Struck Wood, I will not agree."

Yang Jiao took a step forward.

"The lightning-struck wood is already a spiritual object, and only those who are destined to have it can obtain it. You are here today only because of the lightning-struck wood, how dare you say you have taken it for yourself."

The thunderbird looked at the lightning-struck tree with a sad expression.

"This is my husband! I will protect him here for ten thousand years, and no one can take him away."

Wen Zhong and Yang Jian were shocked.

Only then did they realize why Thunderbird was a woman.

Just now.

Wen Zhong suddenly felt a force falling on him.

"This is?"

When Wen Zhong sent out his spiritual sense, he saw the remaining soul in the lightning-struck wood, which actually contacted him.

"Are you the remaining spirit of the willow tree?"

Wen Zhong asked.

The man was dressed in green and saluted Wen Zhong.

"Exactly."

"I know it's hard for me to be reborn, but poor Thunderbird has been protecting me till now. If I continue like this, I'm afraid a demon will be born."

"Fellow Daoist, you are a man of integrity. I am willing to follow you. Please help Thunderbird let go of his obsession."

After Wen Zhong heard this.

Instead, I looked at the willow tree and found it very strange.

"Have you noticed that after so many years of lightning strikes, your consciousness has not been obliterated? Why is that?"

Willow was stunned after hearing this.

"Why?"

Wen Zhong gave an explanation.

"Everything has a glimmer of hope. When lightning strikes, it destroys much, but some hope of life remains."

"After ten thousand years, your residual soul has still survived. This can only mean that God has opened a door for you."

After hearing this, Liu Ming was also excited.

"So, I can reshape my true body?"

Wen Zhong was not sure.

"We still need to try this, but now Thunderbird won't let me get close to you, so I'm afraid it's hard to be sure."

Liu Ming assured Wen Zhong.

"I have a way to make her believe you."

"This is the willow leaf on my body. She will understand when she sees it."

After Wen Zhong agreed, he saw Yang Jiao and Thunder Bird confronting each other.

He raised his hand and asked Yang Jiao to wait.

He took a step forward.

"There's still a chance your husband will survive."

Wen Zhong suddenly spoke, causing Thunderbird's body to tremble.

"What did you say?"

Thunderbird was a little shocked, but she came to her senses immediately.

"Don't try to seduce me! My husband has been dead for thousands of years, how can he come back to life!"

A bolt of lightning struck down and landed on Wen Zhong.

Wen Zhong did not stop him, but continued to speak even after being injured.

"The wood struck by lightning represents both destruction and vitality."

"This is a token Liu Ming gave me."

When the willow leaf was taken out, the Thunderbird saw it and rushed over quickly and took the willow leaf in its hand.

"Why do you have this?"

She questioned Wen Zhong.

Yang Jiao saw that Wen Zhong was injured and took a step forward.

Wen Zhong told Yang Jiao not to worry.

"Brother, please don't do anything."

He continued to watch the Thunderbird.

"Your husband's remaining spirit communicated with me to make you trust me."

"It may be possible to save your husband."

After hearing this, Thunderbird looked at the willow leaf in his hand and finally agreed.

"Don't try to play tricks, or you'll pay the price."

"rest assured."

Wen Zhong came to the lightning-struck tree.

The terrible power of thunder poured into his body.

The destructive force that lasted for ten thousand years was transmitted into Wen Zhong's body.

Although the thunder power is pure, it can cause great harm to Wen Zhong's body.

Wen Zhong looked miserable. Yang Jiao wanted to help but was stopped by Thunderbird.

"you!"

Yang Jiao pointed at the thunderbird and looked at Wen Zhong worriedly.

Thunder surged into Wen Zhong's body, and the power of destruction continued to surge in.

He obviously couldn't hold on.

His face became paler.

It was at this time.

When lightning struck the wood, a ray of life emerged.

Liu Ming appeared on the lightning-struck tree.

"Please help me, brother! Protect his soul and help him rebuild his true body."

Yang Jiao stared at the thunderbird.

"Don't get out of the way! If my junior brother makes any mistake, I will not forgive you."

After Thunderbird saw Liu Ming, his hostility towards the two of them eased.

Yang Jiao stepped forward to protect Liu Ming's soul.

Wen Zhong took the power of thunder from the lightning-struck wood and channeled it into his own body.

Immediately afterwards, with the blessing of the power of faith, Wen Zhong's realm gradually improved as the power of thunder and lightning poured in.

There was a click.

The restraints on Wen Zhong were broken.

Taibai Jinxing came here following orders.

Wen Zhong escaped from the List of Gods and his realm suddenly improved.

The early stage of Daluo...the middle stage of Daluo...the peak stage of Daluo.

Taibai Jinxing nodded to Yang Jiao and the others and left.

Wen Zhong opened his eyes again, and his body was covered with thunder.

Even the Thunderbird is no match for him.

“Finally, we’ve taken this step.”

Wen Zhong sighed.

Yang Jiao was also happy and looked at Wen Zhong.

"Brother, please release Liu Ming's soul."

Yang Jiao agreed.

Liu Ming appeared in front of them.

Wen Zhong used thunder and lightning to reshape Liu Ming's body.

Liu Ming came back to life, and upon seeing this, Thunderbird took a step forward.

But he was hit in the center of his eyebrows by a beam of light from Wen Zhong.

"If you don't get rid of the obsession in your heart, it will become a demon. Get rid of the obsession today."

As the voice died down, the lightning on the Thunderbird slowly faded away and became much gentler.

Liu Ming saw the Thunderbird reappear here and hugged it.

Then, the two of them saluted Wen Zhong.

"I was disrespectful to you, please punish me."

Thunderbird changed its appearance.

Wen Zhong did not blame him.

"It was with the help of the Lightning Struck Wood that I was able to achieve the changes I have today. You and I do not owe it to each other."

However, he kept staring at the lightning-struck wood, which also contained the meaning of thunder. Wen Zhong hoped to refine it and improve his realm.

Liu Ming saw through it and handed the lightning-struck wood to Wen Zhong.

"This item is no longer important to me. Please take it away."

Wen Zhong was quite surprised after hearing this.

"really?"

Liu Ming nodded.

Wen Zhong smiled.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist. If you have the chance in the future, you can come to the Heavenly Palace to find me. I will definitely treat you with courtesy."

Liu Ming and the other man nodded.

"Naturally."

After Wen Zhong obtained the lightning-struck wood, he also thought of the story of Nezha and Ao Bing.

"Brother, let's go find out the whereabouts of our two nephews."

The two began to look for the whereabouts of Nezha Ao Bing.

In a tribe, the two of them saw the statues of Western religions.

“Is this a burning lamp?”

After seeing the statue, both of them were surprised.

"It turns out that the Western Church Quasi-Saint had already entered the scene, but he had been hiding and had not been discovered."

Yang Jiao stared at the statue of Randeng but didn't pay much attention to it.

But suddenly he felt the breath of Nezha Ao Bing coming from the statue.

"Ok?"

He was very surprised.

"How come there is the aura of my two disciples in this statue?"

Wen Zhong was also surprised after hearing this.

"what?"

He stared at the statue and indeed felt the aura of Nezha and Ao Bing.
