Chapter 220: Chapter 212: It’s him?! The entire room changes color, shocked and bolting upright!
"Hahaha, Young Master Sikong, it’s rare for you to visit our Five Elements Thunder Sect. How do you find our Thunder Pool?"
The brawny elder with purple eyebrows laughed heartily.
This person is the current Sect Leader of the Five Elements Thunder Sect, Lei Huatian, a powerful figure whose cultivation has reached the Nirvana Realm!
"It is indeed extraordinary. Even if I personally entered, I could only absorb at most a hundred Divine Thunder, no more."
Sikong Nan looked at the Thunder Pool, where Five Elements Divine Thunder surged around like ancient Thunder Dragons, emanating a destructive aura, and a slight surprise arose in his eyes.
"A hundred?"
The purple-browed elder exclaimed in amazement, "If Young Master Sikong can absorb a hundred Divine Thunder, that would indeed be extraordinary! Since the founding of our Five Elements Thunder Sect, no one at your age has absorbed a hundred Divine Thunder!"
"The highest record is held by the Second Ancestor, who absorbed ninety-three Five Elements Divine Thunder, which is the historical best."
"Young Master Sikong is truly one of the top prodigies of this era. In my opinion, among the prodigies under thirty years old, only the Third Young Master Ziwei from Yanzhou could surpass Young Master Sikong."
Upon hearing this,
Sikong Nan’s face, initially wearing a smile, could not help but darken.
Chen Zhixing, Chen Zhixing, again with Chen Zhixing!
Ever since he left the Sikong Clan, no matter where he went, someone would inevitably bring up this Chen Zhixing!
With a cold voice, Sikong Nan said:
"People always like to spread rumors, exaggerate the facts, and mythologize others."
"If I were to meet this Chen Zhixing, I would like to see for myself what his true strength is."
"By then...when the tide goes out, we’ll see who’s swimming naked."
As soon as these words fell,
A group of prodigies nearby immediately echoed:
"That’s right, that Chen Zhixing is just a charlatan, unworthy of comparison with Young Master Sikong!"
"If that Chen Zhixing appeared now, there’d be no need for Young Master Sikong to act; I could handle him myself!"
"A True Self Sixth Layer at only thirteen...hahaha, does the Ziwei Chen Family think the whole world is foolish?"
"If Young Master Sikong hadn’t pointed out the facade, I would have thought Chen Zhixing was some peerless genius, but it turns out he’s just a fame-hungry trickster!"
"Chen Zhixing is unworthy of being the first on the Longevity Celestial Pride Rankings!"
Upon hearing this, Lei Huatian was slightly taken aback, then raised an eyebrow.
Oh?
Could it be that this Chen Zhixing from the Ziwei Chen Family is indeed not as powerful as rumored?
"Young Master Sikong is right, when the Great Competition at the East Profound Domain arrives, whether it’s a mule or a horse will naturally be revealed."
Lei Huatian smiled gently, then stood and announced:
"The Thunder Pool Ceremony starts now!"
On the high platform,
With a gesture from Lei Huatian,
The barrier sealing the entire Thunder Pool gradually dissipated inch by inch.
Seeing this, countless disciples of the Thunder Sect became visibly excited.
"Enter the Thunder Pool, and remember to absorb as much Divine Thunder as possible into your body, as much as you can until your own limit!"
"Of course, be careful not to be too greedy and reckless, or you risk your life."
After Lei Huatian finished speaking,
Disciples of the Five Elements Thunder Sect tentatively stepped into the Thunder Pool.
Some dared to touch it with one foot, only to retract it as if electrocuted, their faces filled with terror.
Others calmed themselves, cautiously entering the Thunder Pool, proceeding as if on thin ice, slowly guiding the Five Elements Divine Thunder into their bodies.
Meanwhile,
On another side of the Thunder Pool, in a desolate area devoid of disciples from the Thunder Sect.
BOOM——!!
Thick, terrifying bolts of lightning interwove and surged in the air, creating a horrifying atmosphere.
"Here we go."
Chen Zhixing took a deep breath and stepped into the Thunder Pool.
BAM BAM BAM!!
In an instant, the Thunder Tao Nine Extremes Heaven activated!
Chen Zhixing seemed to transform into a human black hole, with countless Five Elements Divine Thunder crashing towards him.
"Come!"
Chen Zhixing opened his mouth and inhaled, directly sucking in several Five Elements Divine Thunder.
BOOM.
Suddenly, muffled sounds echoed from Chen Zhixing’s internal organs, as if thunder were exploding inside him.
"Suppress!" Chen Zhixing uttered a word.
In a moment,
The rampaging Five Elements Divine Thunder within his body was obliterated, transforming into strands of pure Spiritual Qi.
Chen Zhixing’s cultivation, which had just entered the True Self Sixth Layer, instantly advanced a little.
At the same time,
Chen Zhixing’s physical body’s internal organs subtly strengthened.
"Thunder, come."
Chen Zhixing flipped his right hand.
From his palm, multi-colored Five Elements Divine Thunder gushed forth, weaving through his fingers like small snakes.
"I never expected that after refining the Five Elements Divine Thunder, not only could it be used to construct the Thunder Tao Nine Extremes Heaven, but it could also transform into cultivation."
"If I could absorb all the Five Elements Divine Thunder in this Thunder Pool, my cultivation might break through to the True Self Seventh Layer, and simultaneously condense the Thunder Tao Seed!"
Chen Zhixing’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.
In the next moment,
Without hesitation, Chen Zhixing dashed toward the core area of the Thunder Pool.
BAM BAM BAM!!
Terrifying Five Elements Divine Thunder continuously struck towards Chen Zhixing, only to be invisibly absorbed.
Chen Zhixing’s cultivation began to surge at a pace visible to the naked eye!
...
...
Time slowly passed.
On the other side of the Thunder Pool.
"It’s too difficult!"
"Hiss—! Ouch! This is shocking me to the core!"
"Ahhh! I can’t take it anymore! If I keep going, I’m done for! I really can’t hold on any longer!"
Numerous disciples of the Five Elements Thunder Sect were tormented by the Five Elements Divine Thunder, feeling as though they were in heaven and hell.
Before long, most of the Five Elements Thunder Sect disciples could no longer endure and withdrew from the field one after another.
Only a few remained persisting.
Somewhat close to the core area of the Thunder Pool, the senior sister Yunxiao led the group of Thunder Sect disciples. She sat cross-legged, struggling to stabilize her posture, forming hand seals to guide the Five Elements Divine Thunder into her body.
"Twenty-third..."
Yunxiao bit her lip, silently counting the Divine Thunder she absorbed.
Twenty-three Divine Thunder!
This already broke her previous record of absorbing twenty Divine Thunder!
However,
At this moment, she was at a critical juncture, reaching her limit!
"Is twenty-three my limit? No! Absolutely not!"
Yunxiao grit her teeth until they made cracking sounds, wiping the crimson that seeped from the corner of her mouth, she forced herself to stand, taking shaky steps forward, relentlessly drawing two more strands of Divine Thunder into her body.
Suddenly,
A terrifying thunderous explosion resounded ahead of her!
Countless Five Elements Divine Thunder burst through the air in a raging torrent like a furious sea!
Even more, Five Elements Divine Thunder was drawn, simultaneously surging towards the area in front of her!
"Is it him?!!"
In an instant,
Yunxiao’s eyes widened, displaying a shock as if she had seen a ghost!
Meanwhile,
On the high platform,
Countless disciples of the Thunder Sect and the Thunder Sect Leader rose in astonishment!
BAM BAM BAM!
For a moment, the entire hall changed hues, filled with shock and awe!
Everyone’s minds were shaken, their gazes fixed on the core area of the Thunder Pool.
The figure in white, standing amidst the boundless sea of lightning, like a Banished Immortal from the heavens.
