A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality and I Become a God

The Azure Thunder Secret Realm is essentially similar to a world, about half the size of the Upper Realm. So even a Great Luo Golden Immortal might not be able to explore all of it within two years.

With a thunderous roar, rolling lightning surged across the sky above the center of the Azure Thunder Secret Realm, hurtling towards a certain figure.

The figure remained unfazed by the lightning strikes. By fully activating his cultivation technique, he absorbed the approaching lightning directly into his body, the terrifying lightning failing to harm him in the slightest.

After absorbing the lightning for about an hour, the young man's aura surged, and bursts of golden light emanated from his body, making the originally gray sky incredibly dazzling.

This huge commotion naturally attracted the attention of all the powerful figures within the secret realm, whose expressions were extremely solemn, including Wu Li and Nangong Wan.

The two, who were on their way, stopped and looked at the area in the center of the secret realm. Wu Li spoke with a solemn expression.

"What a terrifying aura! Someone must have broken through to the Immortal King level."

"Um."

Nangong Wan nodded solemnly. She was a Grand Luo Golden Immortal in the early stage, but she felt like an ant in front of that aura, which showed just how powerful the other party was.

After pausing for a while, Wu Licai turned around and said.

"Alright, let's go. I doubt they'll have anything to do with us."

"Um."

Nangong Wan nodded in agreement. After all, the other party was a Celestial King, while they were only at the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm and the early stage of the Golden Immortal realm. No matter what, there was no way they could have any connection with the other party.

With that in mind, Wu Li and Nangong Wan continued heading north. Although Nangong Wan didn't know what was at the northern end of the Azure Thunder Secret Realm, she naturally followed Wu Li since he was going there.

She didn't believe that someone with such extraordinary luck would go to an ordinary place.

Meanwhile, in the center of the Azure Thunder Secret Realm.

After the young man broke through to the Immortal King realm, his followers rushed over to congratulate him.

"Congratulations, Holy Son, on breaking through to the Immortal King realm!"

"Keep a low profile. It's only a matter of time before this Holy Son breaks through to the Immortal King realm."

The young man spoke calmly. Judging from the fact that his followers all possessed the cultivation level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, the young man's identity was not simple either.

"Alright, you can do as you please. I have already ascended to the Immortal King realm, and there is nothing in this Azure Thunder Secret Realm that can harm me."

"Yes, Holy Son!"

After hearing the young man's words, the many followers hesitated for only a moment, but quickly nodded in agreement.

They also had their own things to do, and they only stayed by the other party's side because of his status as a holy son. But now that the holy son had spoken, they naturally wouldn't make trouble for themselves.

After his followers had all left, the Holy Son of the Ten Thousand Thunder Sect looked toward the northern part of the Azure Thunder Secret Realm, his expression extremely solemn.

【Rumor has it that Golden Thunderwood exists within the Azure Thunder Secret Realm; finding some to refine inner armor would seem like a good idea.】

The Holy Son of the Ten Thousand Thunder Sect thought to himself, "Golden Thunderwood has many uses. More importantly, most of the Golden Thunderwood is of grade five to seven. If it can reach grade seven, then the inner armor made from it can withstand even the attacks of an Immortal Emperor."

Thinking of this, the Holy Son of the Ten Thousand Thunder Sect no longer hesitated and began to search in the Azure Thunder Secret Realm. Although he was only at the early stage of Immortal King, he was not in any danger in the Azure Thunder Secret Realm unless he encountered an Immortal King-level demon beast.

Furthermore, most of the demonic beasts in the Azure Thunder Secret Realm possess independent consciousness. Unless one rashly intrudes into their territory, they will not attack human cultivators.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a year had passed. During this time, Wu Li and Nangong Wan overcame numerous obstacles and fought against many demonic beasts and human cultivators before finally arriving at the northern end of the Azure Thunder Secret Realm.

Most of the demonic beasts attacked directly and were killed by Nangong Wan with a single sword strike. Of course, only a very few chose to retreat after sensing that Nangong Wan and Wu Li were not ordinary.

As for the cultivator, he coveted Nangong Wan's beauty after seeing her, which is why he made his move. He was then killed by Nangong Wan with a single sword strike, despite her expressionless face.

Getting back to the point, after arriving at the northern end, Nangong Wan looked at Wu Li and asked him curiously.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, what exactly is in this Northern Region that is worth all the trouble you've gone to to come here?"

After glancing at Nangong Wan and thinking for a moment, Wu Li felt there was no need to hide anything, so he slowly spoke.

"At the northern end, there is terrain suitable for the growth of Golden Thunderwood."

"Golden Thunderwood!"

Upon hearing Wu Li's words, Nangong Wan's breathing became rapid. She naturally knew the value of Golden Thunderwood. It was no exaggeration to say that even the lowest grade, fifth-rank Golden Thunderwood, about the size of a thumb, was worth tens of thousands of mid-grade immortal crystals, not to mention that Golden Thunderwood appeared in large quantities.

Just then, Wu Li spoke up.

"The Golden Thunderwood is mine, and the next item will be yours."

Upon hearing Wu Li's words, Nangong Wan hesitated for only a moment before nodding in agreement.

She naturally knew the value of Golden Thunderwood, but she also knew that Wu Li was more valuable than Golden Thunderwood, and that she wouldn't have been able to find Golden Thunderwood if it weren't for Wu Li.

Wu Li was only slightly surprised when Nangong Wan agreed, but he didn't say anything.

He was determined to get Jin Leimu. If Nangong Wan didn't agree, he wouldn't mind turning against her. As for gentlemanly conduct, in Wu Li's view, only strength mattered.

"In that case, let's go look for it."

Wu Li said slowly, "Although I know that the Golden Thunderwood should exist at the northern end of the Azure Thunder Secret Realm, the size of the northern end should not be underestimated, and finding the Golden Thunderwood will not be an easy task."

And so, the two began their search for a needle in a haystack at the northern end of the Azure Thunder Secret Realm, but Nangong Wan knew that it was only a matter of time before Wu Li found it.

Sure enough, after searching for about a month, the two finally found the Golden Thunderwood, or to be precise, the Golden Thunderwood Forest.

Looking at the Golden Thunder Tree, which was about half a meter tall, Wu Li and Nangong Wan fell silent.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, judging from the current situation, it seems that the Golden Thunderwood will need at least ten thousand years to grow to the seventh grade. It is only the fifth grade now. If we were to harvest it, the losses would be enormous."

Nangong Wan said with a serious expression. Upon hearing this, Wu Li nodded, but in his heart he began to think about how to upgrade the Golden Thunder Tree in front of him to the seventh grade.

Golden Thunder Wood is taken from the purest section of the Golden Thunder Tree, and Grade 5 Golden Thunder Wood requires 10,000 years, Grade 6 requires 100,000 years, and Grade 7 requires 1 million years.

In addition, the growth of the Golden Thunder Tree is extremely demanding, which makes it very difficult for the Golden Thunder Wood Thread to grow to the seventh grade.
