Chapter 779: Chapter 719: Inside the Thunder Pool
"Sir, how did you come to the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land?"
Lei Hu followed Xiao Yi, asking.
Xiao Yi remained silent, only focusing on moving forward.
Lei Hu didn’t mind at all and continued to chatter.
"Sir, I guessed earlier that you were going to the Royal Capital."
"We wanted to follow to the Royal Capital as well, but something unexpected happened, so we ended up here in the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land."
"I didn’t expect that we had just arrived, and then you appeared right after us."
"In this world, coincidences are really wonderful."
"..."
Xiao Yi did not respond, feeling as if his ears were buzzing non-stop.
"Enough, shut up." Xiao Yi, his head full of irritation, stopped in his tracks.
"How did you end up in the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land and encountered the Wind Saint Guard?"
Lei Hu grinned, saying, "We just happened to run into them."
"We have always been at odds with the Wind Saint Empire; when we encountered them, we fought."
"Of course, we are no match for you, sir, who is held in such high regard by the Wind Saint Empire."
"So the Wind Saint Empire didn’t issue a warrant against us; they just dealt with us secretly."
"Moreover, luck was against us; we happened to run into the three most elite teams of the Wind Saint Guard, whose captain has reached the strength of Heavenly Extreme First Layer."
"We fled all the way and ended up in the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land."
"Hmph, it wasn’t like that." Lei Hu’s companions nearby snorted coldly, "Those three captains of the Wind Saint Guard were originally pursuing Deacon Xiao Yi."
"We were planning to catch up with Deacon Xiao Yi, and that’s when we encountered them."
"Moreover, if it hadn’t been for Deacon Xiao Yi injuring our big brother, three mere Heavenly Extreme First Layers wouldn’t have been able to trouble you so..."
"Shut up," Lei Hu shouted.
The three then begrudgingly closed their mouths.
Xiao Yi remained indifferent, not paying attention, and continued to move forward on his own.
Seeing this, Lei Hu showed a worried expression and hesitantly said, "Sir, please don’t mind us, we just want to follow you..."
Xiao Yi interrupted indifferently, "The world is vast; where you go is your freedom, just don’t bother me."
Lei Hu’s face lighted up, "Thank you, Sir."
Along the way, they still occasionally encountered demon beasts.
Demon beasts roamed freely within the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land.
But, Xiao Yi hardly had the chance to act before Lei Hu killed them.
Lei Hu, still following, continued to chatter.
"Sir, what exactly did you come to the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land for?"
"For training," Xiao Yi said indifferently, "But, since you’ve killed all the demon beasts we encountered, what am I training for?"
Lei Hu chuckled awkwardly, "Those low-level demon beasts need not trouble you to act personally."
"If there are strong ones that I can’t handle, then it would provide a real training opportunity for you."
Xiao Yi shook his head silently.
Lei Hu conversed sporadically, attempting to establish some rapport.
At least, Xiao Yi had begun to respond to him.
"Oh, by the way, Sir, these are my three brothers," Lei Hu said as he walked, introducing them.
"Lei Bao, Lei Shan, Lei Shi, who have been with me for a long time."
"If they have spoken out of turn, I hope you won’t mind."
Time gradually passed.
Xiao Yi kept moving forward, delving deeper into the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land.
Several hours later, they reached the central part of the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land.
The surrounding aura grew more wild, alarming one’s heart.
Ahead, a place emanating intense thunderous aura and flashing blue lights made Xiao Yi stop.
"What is that place?" Xiao Yi furrowed his brow.
Lei Hu quickly stepped forward, explaining, "That is the Thunder Pool."
"It is the most dangerous yet the most tempting place in the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land."
"Almost all martial artists who come here for training enter the Thunder Pool at least once."
"And those who come merely to complete tasks or hunt demon beasts, like the Asura Team or Wind Envoy Team, generally do not enter."
"Oh?" Xiao Yi was slightly puzzled.
Lei Hu smiled, "Come on, Sir, let me lead the way, and you will understand once we get there."
Xiao Yi nodded.
Lei Hu took the lead, with Lei Bao and others following.
Clearly, the four people had entered the Thunder Pool before, and thus they knew their way around with ease.
The Thunder Pool was like a sunken pit, its top area immense.
Arriving at the edge, Xiao Yi took a look.
Indeed, below inside, thunder roared and flashed.
Streaks of lightning moved relentlessly below.
Lei Hu and the others were the first to jump down.
Xiao Yi also flashed, following them in the jump.
A dozen seconds later...
Thud...
Xiao Yi steadied his figure, the entire cavern was not very deep, only about several hundred meters deep.
But it was only upon reaching the bottom that he realized the area here was incredibly vast.
Looking around, the expanse was boundless, almost like an underground world raging with thunder.
Lei Hu explained, "Sir, as you can see, this place is rampant with thunder."
"If one trains here, firstly, one can temper their body with this lightning."
"Secondly, the concentration of Spiritual Energy here far surpasses that outside; of course, the rampaging thunder here makes it very dangerous, so it’s impossible to cultivate here for long."
"Thirdly, it is to refine one’s movement technique."
"Moving amidst the flickering thunder, it’s a great test for a Martial Artist’s speed, reaction capabilities, and more."
Xiao Yi nodded.
Lei Hu continued, "If you, sir, want to train, this place is a good choice."
"However, as I said before, it’s very dangerous, so please be careful."
"Here, it is just the periphery under the Thunder Pool, the further inside you go, the more rampant the thunder and the stronger its power."
While speaking, Lei Hu chuckled, "There were quite a few people who competed here before, seeing who could go further and more effortlessly within the Thunder Pool."
Lei Bao and the others mentioned, "In that competition, our elder brother ranked first."
"Eh, but that’s nothing to boast about in front of you, sir," Lei Hu said, waving his hand.
"How far did you go?" Xiao Yi looked at Lei Hu and asked.
"Not too far, about five thousand meters," Lei Hu said with a smile, somewhat proudly.
"Let’s go," Xiao Yi said indifferently.
Lei Hu laughed, "What, sir, are you also interested in trying?"
"I must remind you, sir, I cultivated the Thunder Gang Battle Body, so I have a strong resistance to this lightning, which is why I could go that far."
"Otherwise, for an ordinary Martial Artist like you, even if your Cultivation is far stronger than mine, you couldn’t go very far."
"Heh," Xiao Yi chuckled lightly and with a flash, he already moved forward.
"What fast speed," Lei Hu’s pupils narrowed.
Whizz... Whizz... Whizz...
Xiao Yi’s figure continuously weaved through the lightning.
With his mysterious step, he even created trails of illusions ahead.
The dense and fast-paced lightning couldn’t even touch his clothes.
"What a mysterious movement technique," Lei Hu was taken aback, "It really fits you, sir, impressive indeed."
"Come on, let’s keep up."
Before long, Xiao Yi had reached the five-thousand-meter mark.
So far, not a single bolt of lightning had touched him.
The mysterious movement technique was indeed the Wandering Cloud Kill Step.
Lei Hu and the others caught up.
Lei Hu chuckled bitterly, "Sir, isn’t this considered cheating?"
"If avoidance is possible, only a fool would choose to endure," Xiao Yi said lightly.
"Ah," Lei Hu gave an embarrassed smile.
However, Lei Hu’s smile suddenly froze, and his eyes stared straight ahead.
"Hm?" Following his gaze, Xiao Yi’s face also showed surprise.
Below this position, the lightning that formed was extraordinarily powerful, perhaps enough to overwhelm even someone at the Earth Extreme Peak not quite managing to endure for long.
And hundreds of meters ahead, even more powerful bursts of lightning surged forward.
Clusters of dazzling fruits, extremely eye-catching.
The aura was coming from these fruits.
"Wind... Wind Thunder Fruit, so many..." Lei Bao and the others said in astonishment.
True, the dazzling fruits ahead were indeed Wind Thunder Fruits.
Thickly clustered, no less than a hundred.
...
The third update.
