Rumble.
Resplendent lightning rain covered the sky and covered the earth as it rained down. A large portion of the lightning rain was attracted towards the lightning luring platform that Mu Chen was on. Some of the remaining lightning rain fell onto the ground.
The surrounding barren mountain peaks were occasionally struck by the lightning rain. Instantly, they were shattered, bit by bit, turning into dust. Numerous bottomless holes were left on the mountain peaks.
No wonder there was no life in this place. Faced with such a cruel environment, even the most tenacious plant would not be able to survive.
Buzz.
Mu Chen was not distracted as he stared at the white light screen above his head. At the center of the light screen was the motionless White Dragon Spiritual Pearl. At this moment, it was constantly emitting white light, blocking the violent lightning rain that was sweeping over.
Under the impact of the lightning rain, ripples appeared on the white light screen.
More and more lightning rain came whistling over. The momentum was extremely astonishing. However, the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl was not an ordinary object. No matter how the lightning rain wreaked havoc, it remained majestically unmoved.
Mu Chen was both startled and happy at the same time. He was startled that the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl was actually so capable, to be able to withstand such a storm. He was happy that the more powerful the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl was, the more benefits he would obtain after breaking it apart.
Rumble!
Up in the sky, the ink-like thunderclouds violently wiggled. They seemed to have sensed the formidability of the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl. As they wiggled, the devastating thunderstorm became even more violent. That scene made Mu Chen's heart palpitate. In this thunderstorm, even a Heavenly Transformation Stage Initial Phase expert would not be able to withstand it.
He would likely be heavily injured in an instant.
Roar!
The White Dragon Spiritual Pearl was ruthlessly struck by the lightning rain that covered the sky and covered the earth. As if it was enraged, a deep dragon roar erupted as the white light rippled.
As the white light swept out, even the lightning rain that was charging over was forcefully dispersed.
"Rumble!"
In response to the provocative dragon roar, the frightening thunderclouds in the sky immediately responded. One could see the thunderclouds wiggling.
As the lightning clouds wiggled, the lightning rain that covered the sky and covered the earth started to fuse.
Swish!
Xiu!
The tiny lightning droplets fused together, forming into numerous arm-thick liquid silver lightning. They pierced through the heavens and earth, bringing along an irresistible sharpness and violence as they ruthlessly slammed against the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl.
Two frightening energies clashed, causing ripples to spread out, causing even space to distort.
The White Dragon Spiritual Pearl clashed fiercely with the layers of thunderclouds.
Mu Chen sat cross-legged on the Silver Thunder Platform.
He raised his head and watched the battle between the two.
He continued to activate the lightning luring platform.
He continued to increase the effectiveness of the Silver Thunder Platform.
He wasn't afraid that the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl wouldn't be able to withstand it, but he was afraid that the lightning energy wasn't ferocious enough to break the seal.
Otherwise, all his efforts would have been in vain.
However …
He had still underestimated the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl. It was an item left behind by a Supreme-Being expert. Even after so many years, it was still extraordinary.
The thunderclouds that filled the sky bombarded for a full three days and three nights. However, the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl was still dazzling. Frightening Spiritual Energy ripples surged out, scattering the silver lightning liquid that was sweeping over.
Due to Mu Chen constantly activating the lightning luring platform, thunderclouds were constantly being attracted over and gathered together. In the past three days and three nights, the devastating lightning rain hadn't stopped.
"This White Dragon Spiritual Pearl is too tenacious!"
Mu Chen couldn't help smacking his lips. Under this kind of erosion, even a Heavenly Transformation Stage Middle Phase wouldn't dare to endure for so long. However, looking at the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl, it seemed to be full of energy and there weren't any signs of its seal being broken.
"I don't believe that you can continue to resist!"
Mu Chen clenched his teeth as he poured his Spiritual Energy into the lightning luring platform. In an instant, the lightning luring platform blossomed with a powerful light.
This continued for a full ten days!
During these ten days, the lightning rain didn't stop.
The lightning rain wreaked havoc. Although the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl had become much dimmer, the seal within it still hadn't been broken. This made Mu Chen a little speechless. No wonder even the Jiu You Sparrow said that it wasn't confident in breaking it. So the seal was this terrifying.
Mu Chen raised his head as he solemnly looked at the sky. Due to him constantly activating the lightning luring platform for the past ten days, the surrounding hundred miles were filled with thunderclouds. It was a patch of darkness, as if even space was about to be crushed.
The thunderclouds here were already extremely terrifying. Even Mu Chen was a little fearful. He knew that if it was him, he wouldn't be able to escape unscathed under this kind of situation.
Even within the seventh layer of the Thunder Territory, there weren't many people that would dare to use such a method to attract the lightning clouds. Although the lightning energy within the Thunder Territory was able to refine and temper one's Spiritual Energy, once it was over refined, it might directly turn a person into ashes!
Huff.
Mu Chen gently exhaled as he looked at the ink-like thunderclouds. Due to the lightning energy being too violent, Mu Chen could already see lightning flickering within the thunderclouds. It seemed to have formed into a lightning river. The river slowly flowed within the thunderclouds, emitting ripples that would make one's scalp numb.
"I can't let this drag on."
Mu Chen muttered to himself. Looking at the situation, if this continued, he really didn't know how long it would drag on. There was only a month left until the start of the Hunting War. Clearly, he couldn't waste too much time on breaking the seal.
"I can only use something more ruthless."
Mu Chen slightly hesitated, before fiercely clenching his teeth. With a flick of his finger, the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl brought along a torrential white light as it shot out. Like a white beam of light, it charged towards the lightning river flowing within the thunderclouds.
The lightning river was formed from the Lightning Energy that had gathered in this place for over ten days. The Lightning Energy within it was too violent, causing even Mu Chen's heart to palpitate. However, the current him could only use this method.
Whoosh!
White light soared into the sky, appearing extremely eye-catching in this dusky land.
At the edge of the thunderclouds, there were quite a few figures standing in the air. They were all people that were training in the seventh level of the Lightning Territory. During this period of time, they were alarmed by the commotion at Mu Chen's side. Therefore, they had all come over to investigate.
They were extremely shocked that someone actually dared to attract the thunderclouds in this seventh level. As of now, even they didn't dare to rashly step into this region.
This caused them to feel a little curious. They didn't know exactly which fellow, who had been hiding for a long time, had suddenly revealed himself and actually caused such a huge commotion.
"Something's charging towards the thunderclouds."
Under the dusky sky, a shocked voice suddenly rang out. They had seen the white light that tore apart the dusky sky and charged towards the thunderstorm, before finally disappearing into the thunderclouds.
"There's already a lightning river forming within the thunderclouds. Just what is that person thinking?
Doesn't he know how frightening the lightning river will be? "
Upon seeing this scene, the expressions of these outstanding people in Hokuang Reiwon drastically changed. Immediately, they explosively retreated in unison, while their eyes were filled with shock.
Mu Chen naturally didn't know about the commotion caused by his actions. His eyes were staring at the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl. The latter had already transformed into a white light, tore apart the thunderclouds, and charged into the lightning river.
Rumble!
At that instant, an earth-shattering sound abruptly resounded across the heavens and earth. Under that sound, even the heavens and earth seemed to tremble.
Bang!
Lightning bolts shot out from the thunderclouds in all directions. Under the lightning bolts, the pitch-black thunderclouds started to rapidly dissipate.
Within a hundred mile radius, the black thunderclouds rapidly scattered.
As the thunderclouds scattered, a lightning river that was roughly a hundred feet wide was clearly revealed in the sky. The lightning river was like a giant dragon, emitting rumbling sounds. Countless bolts of lightning flickered within it, before raining down from all directions.
The lightning was completely formed from liquid, and possessed an extremely frightening strength. Mu Chen watched as a mountain peak was turned into ashes by a bolt of liquid lightning.
Mu Chen's scalp turned numb as he hastily closed the lightning luring platform. However, he was, after all, on the peak of the mountain. Very quickly, the liquid lightning bolted towards him at lightning speed.
Mu Chen's expression drastically changed. The lightning was too fast, and he wasn't able to evade it at all.
Bang!
Just as the liquid lightning was about to strike Mu Chen, surging black flames suddenly swept out from his body, transforming into a pair of enormous black flame wings that protected him.
Bang!
Bang! The liquid lightning struck the black flame wings, causing violent fluctuations to erupt, before gradually dissipating.
"Many thanks."
Mu Chen breathed a sigh of relief as he spoke in his heart. He knew that it was Jiu You's Sparrow that had made a move. Otherwise, he would probably be in a terrible state from the liquid lightning.
"The seal of the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl should be about to be broken." Jiu You's voice rang out in Mu Chen's heart.
Hearing its voice, Mu Chen hastily raised his head. He saw the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl being submerged in the lightning river. Under the corrosion of the violent energy, the lustre on the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl grew dimmer.
As the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl grew dimmer, the dragon runes that were engraved on the surface of the Spiritual Pearl also started to dissipate, bit by bit.
The dragon runes on the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl dissipated very quickly. In just a short span of a dozen breaths, they had completely disappeared. When those dragon runes disappeared, Mu Chen could clearly sense a pure and boundless Spiritual Energy fluctuation erupting from within.
If the Spiritual Energy within the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl was previously restrained, then right now, it had truly been released.
"The seal has been broken!"
Ecstasy surged in Mu Chen's eyes. After putting in so much effort, he had finally broken the seal within the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl.
"Whoosh!"
The black flame wings that were protecting Mu Chen abruptly stretched out, piercing through the lightning river, and grabbed onto the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl. Thereafter, it rapidly retracted. However, in just a short span of a few breaths, the black flames on the wings had already dissipated a little.
Mu Chen extended his hand out, and grabbed onto the cool White Dragon Spiritual Pearl. He could feel that at this moment, the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl could truly be taken by him!
(Sorry for being late by forty minutes.
It's the last two days. I'm begging for a monthly ticket, thanks!!)
