"You found it?"
Hearing Mu Chen's words, Jiu You's eyes flashed with joy, before feeling a little disbelief. After all, this was something that the Demonic Lightning Sect had not achieved after so many years. But right now, Mu Chen had only needed four days to detect the fluctuation of the Nether Demon Heart Lightning.
"It should be true."
Mu Chen nodded his head in excitement as he lowered his head to look at his palm and said with a grave expression, "But this Nether Demon Heart Lightning is truly overbearing. Just the thunderous roar alone has caused me to lose control of my mind."
"The Nether Demon Heart Lightning can be considered as one of the strangest lightning in the world. Its power isn't as violent and violent as other lightning energies. Furthermore, its attacking method isn't lightning, but the sound of thunder." Nine Nether said.
"Thunderous roars?" Mu Chen narrowed his eyes.
"The Nether Demon Heart Lightning can disregard the majority of defences. It's born from the heart and will appear in the depths of a person's heart. The thunderous roar can cause distracting thoughts in one's heart, making it so much so that one wouldn't be able to control their own Spiritual Energy. Who knows, they might even suffer a backlash from their own Spiritual Energy and die." Jiu You's face was a little grave. Clearly, she was extremely fearful of the Nether Demon Heart Lightning.
It's an attack that can't be defended against.
Mu Chen's face was also shaken. If that's the case, then facing the thunderous roar of the Nether Demon Heart Lightning, no matter how powerful one's physique was, they still wouldn't be able to defend against it. It's no wonder why such a bizarre ability could contend with the Undying Flames.
Just thinking about it, he became even more interested in the Nether Demon Heart Lightning.
"Let's go, I also want to witness the legendary Nether Demon Heart Lightning." Jiu You smiled.
He could tell that she was also extremely interested in the Nether Demon Heart Lightning.
Mu Chen nodded his head.
Thereafter, he stretched his hand out towards Jiu You, who was about to move.
Jiu You looked over with her slender pupils in doubt, before a smile rose on her face. "What's wrong?
Mu Xiaochen, are you trying to take advantage of me? "
The corner of Mu Chen's mouth twitched. He said helplessly, "The Demonic Earth Lightning in that area is extremely violent. If you barge in recklessly, you will definitely attract attacks. However, I can rely on the Lightning Manipulation Technique to avoid them."
"Is that so?" The corners of Jiu You's red lips lifted slightly. Soon after, she smiled.
She stretched out her jade-like hand and placed it on Mu Chen's palm. "Then I'll trust you. I don't think you have the guts to do so."
Mu Chen grasped the warm, tender, and slender hand within his palm. Exerting some force, he pulled the slender, soft figure of the girl in front of him into his embrace. His arm wrapped around her soft and supple waist. Instantly, a fragrance assailed his nostrils.
His heart was filled with warmth.
Jiu You was caught unprepared when she crashed into Mu Chen's embrace. However, before she could struggle, Mu Chen whispered in her ear, "Don't move."
As his voice sounded, Spiritual Energy surged out from within his body and enveloped the both of them.
Soon after, his toes pressed on the ground and he turned into a light figure that shot towards the depths of the bottomless dark sea of lightning.
Wild and violent Demonic Earth Lightning swiftly swept past from both sides. Even with Jiu You's calmness, her pretty face still turned a little hot as she felt the heat that was transmitted from her body.
Soon after, her pretty eyes viciously glared at Mu Chen.
Mu Chen could only let out a dry laugh when he sensed her embarrassed and angry gaze.
After which, he increased his speed.
The ray of light streaked across the dark black sea of lightning. The wild and violent Demonic Earth Lightning would automatically scatter wherever it passed, creating a path without any obstructions. With the mystical nature of the Lightning Manipulation Technique, Mu Chen was clearly able to move unobstructed within this sea of lightning.
Even though he was able to move unobstructed, it was already half a day later when Mu Chen gradually approached the area that his mind had sensed …
Swoosh.
The ray of light streaked across the dark black sea of lightning. That lightning fast speed started to slow down a little. The spiritual light gradually disappeared, revealing the figures of the Mu Chen duo.
Jiu You's hand gently pressed against Mu Chen's chest, pushing him a step back and swiftly escaped.
"How can you throw me away after using me." Mu Chen said with righteous indignation.
Nine Nether rolled her eyes at him, feeling both annoyed and amused. She paid no attention to him and looked up ahead. Shortly after, her face turned a little grave.
Mu Chen had also retracted his joking attitude as he directed his gaze over. He saw that the pitch-black region before him was actually an empty region. There didn't seem to be anything there, but the Demonic Earth Lightning did not dare to approach it.
The darkness was like a black hole that led to the land of death, causing one's heart to palpitate.
"The Nether Demon Heart Lightning that I have sensed is here."
Mu Chen said in a low and deep voice. Although this place was completely silent, his body had uncontrollably tensed up for some unknown reason. This was because his physical body had sensed danger and had automatically activated a defensive stance.
Jiu You gently nodded. The two of them looked at each other and nodded gently. Finally, the two of them took a step forward at the same time, walked out of the sea of lightning, and directly stepped into the dark black vacuum.
No sound was emitted as the two of them carefully walked forward. This continued for a couple of minutes before Jiu You's pretty eyes suddenly hardened. Before she could speak, a strange thunder sound that was like a ghost howl suddenly resounded within her and Mu Chen's hearts.
Bang!
The bodies of the two abruptly turned stiff, especially Mu Chen. Veins started to crawl out from his face, causing his originally handsome face to appear exceedingly malevolent at this moment.
The strange thunder sound had directly resounded in the depths of his heart. The thunder sound rippled, causing him to lose control of the Spiritual Energy circulating in his body in an instant. If it wasn't for his robust foundation, his Spiritual Energy would have already gone out of control. But even so, he was still unable to move, as if he had lost control of his body.
Just when Mu Chen was trying his best to resist the thunder sound in the depths of his heart, Jiu You, who was standing before him, suddenly relaxed her tensed figure. Purple flames swiftly blazed, enveloping her within.
Her hand that was blazing with purple flames held onto Mu Chen's hand as the purple flames swept over and poured into his body. The sound of the blazing flames had also started to cover the thunder sound.
Mu Chen's body had also gradually recovered.
Jiu You slightly turned her head, revealing her sharp and fair face as she said, "Use the Undying Flames to defend."
Mu Chen nodded his head as the Sovereign Sea in his body surged. As his Spiritual Energy surged, strands of Undying Flames seeped out. Although his Undying Flames weren't as robust as Jiu You's, it was sufficient to protect his body.
The two of them continued to move forth. In the next moment, every single step they took, a thunder sound would resound in the depths of their hearts. However, they already had their defences in place, in addition to the power of the Undying Flames, even if their steps were slow, they still managed to walk forth.
Mu Chen silently counted in his heart. When the thunder sound resounded for the thousandth time, he finally sensed that Jiu You, who was standing before him, had stopped. Raising his pale face, he looked up ahead and narrowed his eyes.
In front of him was an extremely dark land. In the darkness, there was a peculiar light that was vaguely discernible. It was a kind of dusky light.
There didn't seem to be anything in the dusky light. However, Mu Chen could sense a heart-palpitating fluctuation coming from there. There must be something there!
However, his eyes couldn't see it!
"The Nether Demon Heart Lightning is formless and intangible …" Jiu You said in a soft voice. Her body had already tensed up at this moment as the Undying Flames blazed. She stared at the dusky land as her voice gradually turned cold, "The Nether Demon Heart Lightning is right before your eyes!"
Mu Chen's pupils contracted as he fixed his gaze on that region. Purple flames surged in his eyes as well. Thereafter, the space in the dusky land seemed to distort. Vaguely, he could see an incorporeal python that was roughly a thousand feet in size coiled there, coldly staring at him without the slightest emotion in its snake eyes. Sizzle.
Sizzle.
It slowly flicked its snake tongue as a peculiar sound rang out. It was like the lullaby of a death god.
Was this the Nether Demon Heart Lightning?!
Mu Chen sucked in a breath of cold air. He never imagined that the Nether Demon Heart Lightning would already transform into a snake form. Looks like it couldn't be underestimated. He wondered if he and Jiu You would be able to subdue it if they joined hands.
"Oh?"
Just when Mu Chen was staring at the incorporeal Nether Demon Heart Lightning, his gaze suddenly moved as he looked at the back of the python. There was a grey light surging there and there was a broken stone tablet that was faintly discernible.
"What is that?" Mu Chen softly asked towards Jiu You.
Jiu You's beautiful eyes also looked over. Her eyebrows slightly knitted together as she looked over. She could see light surging on the broken stone tablet as some ancient words gradually appeared.
"Heartless Heart Scripture?"
Jiu You carefully identified those ancient words. A brief moment later, her beautiful eyes abruptly narrowed as she muttered with some shock, "It seems to be … the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture?!"
"Supreme Demon Heart Scripture?" Mu Chen was stunned. What a domineering name. But what was that?
"In the ancient times, there was an extremely ferocious demon known as the Demon Heart Lightning Emperor. Back then, he swept through the Great Thousand World with an illustrious reputation. In the Great Thousand World's calamity, who knows how many experts of the Fiend Clans fell in his hands. However, he also disappeared in that calamity. I never imagined that I would be able to see the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture here today." Jiu You said in astonishment.
"No wonder the Nether Demon Heart Lightning would appear here. Back then, the Nether Demon Heart Lightning Emperor was the speciality of the Demon Heart Lightning Emperor."
"Oh?
Could this be the place where the Demon Heart Lightning Emperor fell? "Mu Chen was also a little astonished as he spoke.
"I don't know about that."
Jiu You shook her head as she stared at the broken stone tablet. She could see that the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture on it didn't seem to be complete.
"We'll know everything after we deal with the Nether Demon Heart Lightning Python." Jiu You slowly clenched her jade-like hands.
Mu Chen also lightly nodded his head as he stared at the gigantic invisible python. His gaze had also slowly turned cold. He had spent a great deal of effort to find this place. Today, he had to obtain the Nether Demon Heart Lightning no matter what!
