In the Scatter Thunder Clan, one couldn't always exchange for thunder crystals. There were only three days each year when the Thunder Crystal Temple on Shi San opened. If one wanted to exchange for thunder crystals, they could only do so during these three days.
During these three days, most of the cultivators on the planet would rush over to exchange for thunder crystals from the elder in charge of the Thunder Crystal Temple.
Similarly, one could use thunder crystals to buy some treasures and cultivation methods of the Scatter Thunder Clan.
However, in the Scatter Thunder Clan, thunder crystals couldn't be traded privately. Thunder crystals couldn't be transferred and could only be traded with the Thunder Crystal Temple.
Although this was the case, there were many Scatter Thunder Clan members, so they naturally had a way to trade privately without using thunder crystals. They only needed to take out something of equal value to trade for thunder crystals.
However, this method was dangerous, so only old monsters with powerful cultivation dared to trade privately.
This method of not being able to transfer thunder crystals and trade privately was very inconvenient for the Scatter Thunder Clan. However, this had continued for countless years without any change.
Accompanied by Chung Ta-hung, Wang Lin and Wang Lin flew through the sky toward the Thunder Crystal Temple.
The Thunder Crystal Temple stood at the center of the planet on top of a mountain. This mountain pierced through the clouds and was the highest point on the planet. It was surrounded by a circular basin that was surrounded by green fog all year round. No Scatter Thunder Clan member could casually enter, because once they entered the green fog, they would be injured by the Thunder inside. If it was light, they would be seriously injured and thrown out. If it was heavy, they would directly collapse and die.
This was a forbidden land!
Only during the three days it was open would the green fog dissipate a bit, revealing a path for the Scatter Thunder Clan members to enter.
The Heavenly Thunder Sect was a bit far from the Thunder Crystal Temple. In truth, the Heavenly Thunder Sect was only at the edge of the planet, just like the country of Zhao on Suzaku.
It wasn't valued at all and no one went to check it out.
Even if a powerful cultivator appeared there, unless they set off a heaven-shaking change, they were still insignificant compared to this large cultivation planet.
For example, Yu Fei had never traveled more than 50,000 kilometers in his life. Although there were people within 50,000 kilometers of him, once he left, no one knew him.
Even Chung Ta-hung was the same.
Because he knew this, Wang Lin didn't care too much about the change in his cultivation.
Without Wang Lin using any spells, he and Chung Ta-hung had to fly for more than half a month before they arrived at the center of the cultivation planet.
Along the way, Chung Ta-hung exerted all his strength, constantly using his invincible technique to flatter Wang Lin. If that was all, Chung Ta-hung wouldn't be able to display his skills. Not only did he flatter Wang Lin with his words, he also put his actions into action. More often than not, with just a glance from Wang Lin, he would be able to guess the gist of Wang Lin's intentions and act first.
Along the way, Chung Ta-hung had served Wang Lin very well.
This was where Xu Liguo couldn't compare. Even Wang Lin couldn't help but give Chung Ta-hung a few more pills and point out some of the drawbacks of his cultivation.
As a result, Big Red became even more excited. He didn't wait for Wang Lin's order and fiercely attacked anyone he thought he could rob. He brought back a large amount of items that could be exchanged for thunder crystals and gave them to Wang Lin without leaving a single one.
"Master, if we go any further, we will enter the range of the Thunder Crystal Temple, so we can't continue to rob here. During these three days, there will be no fighting within the Thunder Crystal Temple. This is also for protection.
"The route we took before wasn't a straight line but a few detours, so we avoided some powerful cultivators. This lowly one knows that Master's cultivation is heaven-shaking, but the Thunder Crystal Temple is only open for three days. If there are any unnecessary troubles, we can just wait until we return."
In these past few days, Chung Ta-hung had subtly changed the way he addressed Wang Lin from senior to master.
These two terms were different, and the meaning was like heaven and earth. In Chung Ta-hung's opinion, the term 'senior' was too foreign. If he changed it to master like Xu Liguo, it would mean they were family.
Wang Lin didn't refuse and let Chung Ta-hung change the way he addressed him.
After entering the range of the Thunder Crystal Temple, there were more and more cultivators. Rays of light flew through the sky like shuttles. Chung Ta-hung's expression was extremely vigilant. Although there was no fighting here, he was still a bit nervous when facing these powerful cultivators.
There were also some cultivators that came in groups. More than a dozen of them turned into rays of light and arrogantly swept by. The rest of the cultivators immediately avoided them.
"The cultivation of these Scatter Thunder Clan cultivators is much higher than that of the Inner Realm cultivators … There are Soul Formation cultivators everywhere, and there are also many Soul Transformation cultivators …" As Wang Lin moved forward, he withdrew his gaze from the rays of light that flew by.
Just at this moment, an extremely powerful aura came from behind Wang Lin and Chung Ta-hung. This aura was like a wave that rumbled like Thunder.
The expressions of the surrounding cultivators immediately flickered, and they all looked over with respectful expressions.
It was a middle-aged man in black. He wore a daoist crown and had his hands behind his back. He walked past Wang Lin and created layers of astral wind.
"Ascendant old monster!!"
"It's the Black Devil King of Mount Wuyi. Rumor has it that he is at the peak of the early stage of Ascendant and can step into the mid stage at any time!"
"Rumor has it that this old monster rarely leaves Mount Wuyi. He must have made a big move by coming to the Thunder Crystal Temple!"
"Of course, this Black Devil King is ranked 766th on the Scatter Thunder Ranking. After exchanging for thunder crystals, perhaps he can move up a few ranks."
The surrounding cultivators all respectfully clasped their hands. After the middle-aged man left, they began to talk.
Chung Ta-hung immediately whispered to Wang Lin, "Master, this person is the Black Devil King of Mount Wuyi. Mount Wuyi has a total of four kings, and all of them are Ascendant old monsters."
Although Wang Lin had searched through Chung Ta-hung's memories, he had only seen some important things. He had only skimmed through the memories of Ascendant cultivators and didn't take a closer look.
His gaze fell on the Black Devil King, and he nodded slightly but didn't speak.
In the distance, the Black Devil King was already used to the discussions behind him, so he didn't pay any attention to them. However, when Wang Lin's gaze swept past him, his heart skipped a beat. His body felt like it was on fire and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Fortunately, this feeling only lasted for an instant. The Black Devil King didn't dare to look back and quickly sped up.
With Chung Ta-hung accompanying him, Wang Lin's expression remained the same as he got closer and closer to the Thunder Crystal Temple. He could already see the green fog that covered the sky. There was a crack in the fog that seemed to have been split open by someone, forming a narrow passage about 100 feet wide.
Outside the green fog stood two indifferent cultivators in red. They looked to be in their forties, but they were old monsters that had lived for thousands of years. Their cultivation levels had surpassed the first step of cultivation and reached the Illusory Yin realm!
Their gazes were cold as they swept past the incoming cultivators. Any cultivator who met their gaze would tremble and reveal a look of fear and respect.
Even the Black Magic King was respectful in front of the two red-clothed cultivators, as if he was a mortal who had met an Immortal Cultivator.
There was no need for Chung Ta-hung to introduce them. Wang Lin knew that these two were responsible for guarding the passage. At this moment, many cultivators flew into the passage between them.
There were many cultivators around, and there were no less than 1,000 of them. However, there was no chaos, and there was no commotion. Instead, they quietly entered the passageway.
Shortly after, Wang Lin's expression changed and he casually looked at the horizon. A moment later, the clouds in the sky closed in. At a glance, there were endless rumbles of thunder coming from the clouds. It was as if the clouds were connected to the heavens and earth.
The rumbling thunderclouds arrived in an instant and caused the hearts of all the cultivators outside the crack to tremble. Even the two cultivators in red revealed serious expressions.
A long laugh came from the void. The thundercloud suddenly shrank and turned into a cloak that draped over the body of an old man who walked out of the thundercloud.
This old man had white hair, but his eyes shined brightly. As he walked out, it was as if he had crossed time and space, causing the world to distort.
"Nirvana Scryer cultivator …" Wang Lin's expression was calm and he revealed an almost undetectable smile.
The moment the old man appeared, all the cultivators outside were terrified. Some of the cultivators that knew him didn't even dare to talk. They all clasped their hands and respectfully spoke.
"Greetings, Senior Zhou Tian …"
Even the two red-robed cultivators outside the crack had respectful expressions. They quickly went up and clasped their fists, "Junior greets Senior Great Zhou Tian. Senior must have come to the Thunder Crystal Hall to make it into the top ten of the Lightning Rankings, right?"
The old man clasped his hands and smiled. "I won't be able to enter the top 10. It would be good if I could enter the top 30."
As he spoke, he flicked his right finger, and two medicinal pills flew out. They landed in the hands of the two red-robed cultivators. Without another word, he stepped into the fissure. Wherever he went, all the cultivators would make way for him.
The two cultivators in red looked at the pills in their hands and revealed looks of joy. They clasped their hands at the old man's back.
Wang Lin looked at where the old man went and didn't reveal any of his thoughts.
After the old man left, the surrounding cultivators began to talk.
"Most second step cultivators come on the last day. I didn't expect Senior Zhou Tian to come on the first day."
"Sigh, I wonder when we'll be able to unlock our clan marks and reach the same cultivation level as Senior Zhou Tian. I'm afraid there's no hope in this lifetime."
"It's not impossible. Rumor has it that Senior Zhou Tian had a fortuitous encounter in his early years, which is why his cultivation level is so high. Maybe one day, we'll have a fortuitous encounter as well."
As they discussed, Wang Lin and Chung Ta-hung flew toward the crack. The two cultivators in red glanced at Wang Lin, but they naturally didn't notice anything and allowed them to enter.
In their eyes, whether it was Wang Lin or Chung Ta-hung, they were just insignificant people.
As he entered the crack, Wang Lin's eyes lit up. This was the first time he had entered an important place of the Scatter Thunder Clan since he arrived!
He stared at the green mist around him, and his eyes gradually revealed a strange light.
"This mist …"
