Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

At this moment, when the mutated energy sensed the energy of the thunder ball within the Dantian, the originally extremely ferocious and aggressive mutated energy seemed to be injected with adrenaline. With a thunderous roar, it rushed toward the silver cage.

The cage composed of silvery light was only designed for containment. Although it had some resistance externally, it was not particularly strong. And given Zhu Bufan's current strength, he couldn't lay down a powerful prohibition without harming Yi Yun, so when he initially set this prohibition, Zhu Bufan chose a force that was just enough to suppress the energy within Yi Yun without harming him, resulting in a slightly weaker prohibition.

The mutated energy, with just one impact, made the silver cage wobble precariously, compounded by the continuous battering of the thunder ball inside the cage. Under the pincer attack, the silver cage was shattered into pieces after withstanding just two waves of impact, and the prohibition's power vanished completely.

With the cage broken, the thunder ball transformed into a streak of purple light and instantly merged with the mutated energy. The whole Dantian was flooded with thunder light in an instant, with purple luminescence illuminating the meridians. Tiny streaks of thunder light spewed from the mutated energy, rushing into the meridians immediately. Unfortunate for the meridians that had just been repaired and barely maintained their shape, they were instantly shattered and collapsed under the assault of the violent thunder energy.

However, before these meridians could completely break, tiny streaks of thunder light appeared at the ruptures, holding them together and continuously repairing the damaged sections of the meridians.

The thunder light spilling from the mutated energy continued wreaking havoc and repairing within the meridians, while the mutated energy was trying hard to assimilate the thunder ball in the Dantian.

The energy contained within the thunder ball was too immense and too violent. Even with the devouring traits of the mutated energy, it was nearly impossible to completely assimilate the thunder ball's energy in a short time. Instead, the mutated energy, which thrived by plundering energy along the way, was constantly being assimilated by the thunder ball. Deprived of outside energy support, the mutated energy had no backup and was forced to retreat step by step after being infiltrated by the thunder ball, struggling to resist the assimilation, but complete assimilation was only a matter of time.

Muffled thunder continued to emanate from the thunder ball, and then strands of thunder light spilled out from it, coursing through the meridians, instantly filling them up. Yet, as soon as these thunder lights entered the meridians, they immediately merged into them, continually repairing the damage and simultaneously strengthening and assimilating the meridians, transforming Yi Yun's meridians to better accommodate the operation of thunder attribute energy. With the continuous inflow of thunder light, the once dilapidated meridians were steadily being repaired and strengthened, constantly being filled with thunder attribute energy.

When Yi Yun's meridians had been repaired by seventy to eighty percent, the mutated energy could no longer resist the assimilation of the thunder ball. In just the blink of an eye, the mutated energy was completely assimilated by the thunder ball. Acquiring the energy contained within the mutated energy, the thunder ball suddenly emitted a strong purple light, followed by a thunderous explosion. Strands of thick thunder light constantly split off from the thunder ball, flooding into Yi Yun's meridians, coursing through them with crackling sounds, pumping up Yi Yun's freshly repaired meridians.

The meridians, previously stripped bare, were suddenly filled with such violent energy that even though Yi Yun was in a comatose state, he couldn't help but let out a groan of pain. However, after letting out a groan, he still didn't wake up. The violent thunder energy rampaged within the meridians, repeatedly tearing them apart and then repairing them. This endless cycle of destruction and reconstruction tempered Yi Yun's originally fragile meridians, making them increasingly resilient.

Outside Yi Yun's body, the gray aura originally hovering in front of him had now expanded to his height, and although it hadn't yet completely enveloped this mysterious space, at this rate, it's only a matter of time before it did. Numerous strands of gray air divided from the massive gray aura connected to the center of Yi Yun's forehead, continuously absorbing the thunder attribute energy from within him. The booming thunder constantly echoed from the gray aura, and occasionally, purple thunder light flowed out but was swallowed back into it with an angry roar before it could break free, and then disappeared without a trace.

The gray aura continued to incessantly extract Yi Yun's energy to grow its strength. As the thunder attribute energy kept being channeled into it, the gray aura began to spread, subtly indicating it intended to envelop Yi Yun entirely.

Suddenly, the gray aura that greedily absorbed Yi Yun's energy halted as if attacked by something, then rolled back a bit, and the gray air currents splitting off from it seemed to be slashed by a knife, snapping apart in an instant. Streams of purple thunder light sprayed from the ruptures, subsequently landing on Yi Yun, twitching briefly before absorbing into his skin.

Seeing the purple thunder lights spewing forth, the gray aura, seemingly reluctant, split off another dozen or so strands of gray air, attacking Yi Yun's forehead again. This time, the streams were noticeably thicker than before, evidently showing the gray aura wasn't planning to give up this prized opportunity.

The gray currents once again connected to Yi Yun's forehead, commencing another round of energy siphoning from within him.

The roar of thunder continued to emanate relentlessly from the gray aura, resembling the bellow of a wild beast. But no matter how fierce the beast, once caged, it can only be at the mercy of others, and the gray aura seemed precisely like a cage for the purple thunder light, suppressing it relentlessly.

The beastly roar gradually faded away, leaving no trace of activity.

Yi Yun's face remained eerily still, showing neither vitality nor deathly presence, much like a sleeping individual, only he seemed to sleep deeply.

On his skin, there appeared pulsating meridians. As they swelled, they emitted crackling sounds, with traces of fine electric light seeping out and then receding into the skin again. At this moment, Yi Yun seemed almost like a manifestation of thunder light himself, as purple thunder light flickered across his body from time to time.

With the flickering thunder light on Yi Yun's body, the gray aura seemed to become increasingly excited, incessantly splitting streams of gray air to attach to Yi Yun's body and greedily absorbing the energy within him. It couldn't miss such a rare chance to grow itself stronger.

Very soon, Yi Yun's body was covered with countless dense channels formed by the gray air currents of varying sizes. Now, he looked like a biological specimen under examination, albeit a slightly terrifying one, with his entire body illuminated by thunder light. Inside the gray air currents, thunder light flickered, followed by the relentless thunderous roars resembling the bellow of ancient wild beasts, issuing from within the gray aura.

Suddenly, with a loud bang, like a thunderclap out of the blue, Yi Yun's body burst forth with intense thunder light. Then a tremendous force of suction emerged from Yi Yun's body, contesting with the gray currents over the thunder attribute energy. No, that's not right, rather it was constantly devouring and tugging at the gray currents. Astonishingly, the thunder attribute energy within Yi Yun began to counterattack the gray aura.

Sensing the changes in Yi Yun's body, the gray aura behaved like a beast facing its nemesis, attempting to sever ties with the gray currents to preserve itself. But the thunder attribute energy absorbed into the gray aura suddenly joined forces with the thunder attribute energy within Yi Yun, relentlessly assaulting the gray aura, simultaneously counterattacking it and pulling it inexorably toward Yi Yun.

The confrontation between the two energies, though not earth-shattering in appearance, exuded a sense of a final, perilous showdown. Despite this turbulent exchange, Yi Yun, whose eyes had remained stubbornly closed, let out a groan of pain, and gradually his brows began to unfurl, slowly opening his eyes.
