Chapter 56 - Chapter 56 A Victory Not Entirely Satisfying

Xu Changtai's expression had changed drastically when Ning Jinguang produced the talisman.

A small black axe flashed into existence in his hand, and he was about to move forward to help Ning Fa.

At this moment, the burly man roared, "If you dare to interfere, don't blame me for bullying the young!"

Xu Changtai's face was grim, but he didn't put away the magical artifact in his hand. He had decided that if Ning Fa was losing, he would still intervene.

Ning Fa was not an ordinary person, after all. He forcefully calmed himself down.

Under his full control, several nebula-like Thunder Sources within his body spun rapidly, and his entire body's magical power was mobilized frantically.

In an instant, four silver lightning balls appeared consecutively on his hands, and Ning Fa thrust them upwards.

The four lightning balls instantly grew larger, blocking in front of Ning Fa like a wall.

The next moment, two flame arrows and three azure wood swords flew towards him.

With a piercing roar, flames, silver light, and azure sword energy scattered everywhere.

Ning Fa, who was nearby, was also shaken back a considerable distance. At this moment, one of the three azure wood swords in the air, unaffected, flew towards him, like a viper flicking its tongue, delivering a chilling strike.

Ning Fa had just stabilized himself.

Facing this sword's insidious attack, he gritted his teeth fiercely and fully activated the Lesser Thunder Sources in his hands.

His arms shone with silver light, and two dazzling silver lights shot out from his palms.

The silver lightning instantly formed a silver barrier in front of him. The azure wood sword immediately pierced into the silver barrier, as if stuck in mud.

Seeing that he had finally blocked the attack, Ning Fa felt a lingering fear.

He had instinctively used this move in the perilous situation, but it had also caused his internal magical power to be rapidly depleted. The magical power in the Lesser Thunder Sources in his arms was on the verge of exhaustion.

However, Ning Fa did not panic. After all, he still had two other Lesser Thunder Sources, and the Main Thunder Source in his dantian.

At this moment, the five Thunder Sources within his body once again displayed their mysterious silver trajectory. The other three Thunder Sources were channeling magical power along the silver trajectory to the two Lesser Thunder Sources in his arms at an incredibly fast speed, with almost no interval.

Within a single breath, the two exhausted Lesser Thunder Sources became replenished.

Ning Fa then quickly activated the Lesser Thunder Sources in his legs, and his legs immediately flashed with silver light.

He stomped the ground fiercely, and his body shot backward.

Without his magical power restraining it, the flying sword swayed slightly and was about to attack again.

The other two azure wood swords had also stabilized their bodies after the impact of the Thunderball Technique, regrouping and following closely behind.

A fierce glint flashed in Ning Fa's eyes.

He pushed his hands outwards forcefully, and one silver lightning ball after another shot from his hands, smashing towards the three flying swords at an incredibly fast speed.

The sky was filled with silver fireworks, brilliant and dazzling, accompanied by rumbling thunder, creating an astonishing spectacle.

The burly man not far away had initially breathed a sigh of relief, thinking his nephew would be able to defeat Ning Fa smoothly.

However, seeing the current situation, his expression became solemn again.

The three flying swords were struggling in the dense silver fireworks, unable to evade them at all. They were buffeted by the powerful lightning arcs, making them sway unstably.

Soon, the two split azure wood swords shattered into fragments of spiritual light.

Although the main body of the azure wood sword was still struggling, its spiritual light was dim all over.

After being hit by another silver lightning ball, the azure wood sword let out a mournful cry and fell to the ground.

The originally watery-blue sword body was now scorched black and had many cracks, clearly severely damaged.

Ning Jinguang, connected by his spiritual sense, couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, his aura greatly diminished.

He cried out in grief and indignation, "Ah! My Azure Wood Sword!"

Ning Jinguang glared at Ning Fa with hatred, a fierce glint in his eyes. A blood-red talisman appeared in his hand, and a trace of malevolent aura emanated from it.

The burly cultivator behind him was startled and tried to stop him.

At this moment, Ning Fa's eyebrows shot up, and he pointed his right index finger sharply at the cultivator!

A brilliant bolt of lightning suddenly erupted from his fingertip.

This lightning was dazzling and piercing, and everyone, caught off guard, involuntarily closed their eyes.

It was Ning Fa's other lightning-elemental spell, which he had mastered to the Paragon realm.

Lightning Flash Technique.

"Ah!"

Ning Jinguang, who was within the core range of the Lightning Flash Technique, let out a scream. He instinctively covered his eyes, and the action of activating the talisman in his hand naturally halted.

At this moment, two more silver lightning balls flew towards him.

Although Ning Jinguang's eyes were still closed, he detected the two lightning balls through his spiritual sense.

His face turned pale. He wanted to use the same movement technique as before to dodge, but at this time, his internal magical power was greatly depleted, and he was willing but unable.

The burly cultivator behind him finally couldn't hold back.

He rushed forward quickly, raised his right hand, and a saber as tall as a person flew out.

A blinding white blade light flashed, followed by a crackling burst of electric arcs, scattering silver light as the two Silver Lightning Balls were shattered by a single strike.

The burly man, however, was not at ease. His body swayed slightly, and his gaze towards Ning Fa became even more solemn.

At this point, he could tell that Ning Fa truly lacked combat experience.

However, this kid had actually mastered the Paragon realm of Thunderball Technique and Lightning Flash Technique, and his internal magical power seemed very abundant, far exceeding that of ordinary Qi Condensation third-layer cultivators.

With brute strength overcoming skill, his nephew, who was at the Qi Condensation sixth layer, was actually no match for him!

Seeing the late-stage Qi Condensation cultivator make a move, Ning Fa frowned slightly.

The magical power from the four Lesser Thunder Sources within him had been completely depleted. Fortunately, the magical power from the Main Thunder Source in his dantian was still intact.

However, facing this burly man who didn't seem simple, he estimated he couldn't last more than a few exchanges.

Furthermore, his spiritual consciousness had been heavily consumed, leaving him with only twenty to thirty percent.

Although Thunderball Technique and Lightning Flash Technique could be cast instantly, they still required spiritual consciousness to activate.

Ning Fa sighed inwardly.

At this moment, he himself recognized that his combat experience was far too lacking.

His victory over Ning Jinguang was mainly due to the instant casting of Thunderball Technique, coupled with the sharp power of his silver magical power after the purification of his Thunder Body, essentially winning by brute force.

Ning Fa thought to himself that he must find a way to improve his combat experience in the future.

Otherwise, having the realm but lacking the skill would just make him a pretty boy.

"Uncle Yong! You don't need to interfere. I was just careless earlier. He's definitely no match for me!"

Ning Jinguang, initially with a look of lingering fear, reacted afterward. He, a cultivator at the Qi Condensation sixth layer, was actually not the opponent of this family's renowned good-for-nothing!?

He was at the Qi Condensation sixth layer, while Ning Fa was only at the third layer!

Thinking of this, Ning Jinguang felt an unspeakable humiliation, causing his eyes to redden as he was about to charge forward and fight Ning Fa again.

The burly man stopped him and shook his head.

Ning Jinguang finally calmed down. His spiritual weapon had suffered severe damage, making him even less of a match for Ning Fa, who could instantly cast Thunderball Technique.

The thought that Ning Fa had mastered the Paragon realm of two techniques shocked him, as did a deep sense of jealousy and hatred.

"Fine, this Qi Condensation sixth-layer fellow is too weak. I didn't even break a sweat. Let me see the strength of you late-stage Qi Condensation cultivators."

Ning Fa laughed heartily, his words filled with undisguised mockery. He appeared to have no fear of the burly man.

In reality, he was certain that this person wouldn't dare to make a move.

Ning Jinguang trembled with anger, but the burly man firmly blocked him.

He said to Ning Fa with a slight frown, "Ning Fa, do you really have to interfere in this matter? You should know our origins, shouldn't you?"

Ning Fa retracted his mocking smile and said coldly, "I naturally know about the Wenchang Island lineage, but Xu Changtai is also my uncle. I cannot stand by and watch them be bullied."
