In the shining silver world, thunder roared like a raging dragon, the deafening sound echoing incessantly in this emptiness. This unusual phenonon seed to be unique to this empty space.
Beside the black thunder pool, a figure was sitting cross-legged. Not far from this figure, a vortex was slowly swirling.
Suddenly, the appearance of a new figure disturbed the scene.
This new figure appeared to be quite old, with strands of pale hair cascading down his face. He wore a deep blue robe that emitted flashes of lightning, giving off an energetic aura. The lightning was clearly a manifestation of his own power.
His ability to venture deep into the lightning pool demonstrated his extraordinary nature, a fact confird by his subsequent words.
"Unexpectedly, in the depths of this Void Lightning Pool, there are such bizarre creatures ford entirely by the power of lightning. If I could use my Lei Clan's secret technique to directly absorb them for cultivation, they would be a great supplent!"
Mang Tian Chi clicked his tongue in amazent as he gazed out at the vast expanse of the black lightning sea before him.
He stumbled upon this lightning pool by accident. Originally, he had intended to tear through the void for long-distance teleportation, but unexpectedly, this lightning pool lay right in his path.
Ordinary people would naturally avoid a lightning pool when they encountered one. However, Mang Tian Chi had always enjoyed traveling far and wide, exploring strange and mysterious places. When he saw this strange lightning pool, he naturally didn't want to waste the opportunity.
So he entered the pool, and as soon as he did, he saw the vastness of the black lightning sea filling his vision.
Overjoyed, he was about to take action when he caught a glimpse of Xiao Ming and the "Spirit" out of the corner of his eye, in the midst of cultivation.
The aura that the forr had unintentionally emitted during his cultivation caused his pupils to contract.
"What the hell, where did that monster co from!"
As he uttered these words, Xiao Ming's eyelids twitched, causing Mang Tian Chi's heart to tighten.
...
When Xiao Ming opened his tightly shut eyes after a month, there were faint flashes of black lightning in his pupils. As he parted his lips slightly, a deep, thunderous sound rumbled from his throat.
"Hoo..."
A breath escaped his mouth, containing a trace of black lightning. He stood up, and clear crackling sounds echoed through his body, carrying a sense of boundless power. It was as if a mighty dragon lay dormant within his muscles. With a single thought, the dragon would rise and unleash a terrifying destructive force that would leave people speechless.
'Just a little more and I could have reached the four-star Dou Saint... What a pity.'
Sensing his internal state, Xiao Ming shook his head in regret. He seed to have developed so resistance to the Black Demon Lightning after reaching the advanced three-star Dou Saint stage. The remarkable progress he had experienced at the beginning diminished considerably. As a result, he had to leave his cultivation state.
With a wave of his hand, a white light erupted from the depths of the Lightning Pool and quickly descended to appear at his side. It was the "Spirit" that had been devouring the Black Demon Lightning for a month.
Xiao Ming's gaze swept over the "Spirit", feeling the raging, thunderous power within it. He nodded slightly in satisfaction.
His strength had improved, and the "Spirit" had also beco stronger. Although the gap between the Dou Saints was imnse, their combined strength made ordinary four-star Dou Saints completely incapable of facing them. If all thods were used, even a five-star Dou Saint wouldn't be a match for them. As for a six-star Dou Saint, the difference was still too great. He hadn't tried, so it was hard to say. Perhaps only when his soul reached the Great Perfection of the Heaven Realm would he have the confidence to claim victory over an initial six-star Dou Saint.
Withdrawing the "Spirit", Xiao Ming turned his gaze towards Mang Tian Chi.
At that mont, Mang Tian Chi seed unsure whether to leave or stay. eting Xiao Ming's gaze, he could only force a smile and extended his hand in greeting.
"Hehe, hello."
Observing the sowhat comical smile on the elderly man before him, Xiao Ming responded with a faint smile and nodded.
"Hello."
He had sensed the arrival of this old man. He didn't deal with the old man right away because he was aware that he was a peak Dou Venerate and posed no threat to him.
Seeing that Xiao Ming seed quite approachable, Mang Tian Chi's courage grew. However, he had no intention of lingering too long; he simply wanted to leave the place.
"Sorry for interrupting your cultivation. I'll be on my way now."
As he finished speaking, Mang Tian Chi turned to leave. But as he was about to do so, he found Xiao Ming standing in front of him, blocking his path.
Mang Tian Chi cursed his luck as cold sweat ran down his forehead. This seemingly young guy was definitely an unyielding old Dou Saint. Why had he chosen to barge into soone's cultivation ground so carelessly?
It seed like he would have to use the Lei Clan's reputation to get out of this situation. Hopefully, the other party would take the clan's reputation into consideration and not make things difficult for him.
"Allow to introduce myself, I am Mang Tian Chi, an elder of the Lei Clan..."
Mang Tian Chi?
With previous suspicions in his heart, Xiao Ming heard those three words and a flash of understanding crossed his mind.
The original story didn't ntion when Mang Tian Chi discovered this Void Lightning Pool. It only described how Xiao Yan encountered Mang Tian Chi while fleeing from the pursuit of the Black Demon Lightning.
At that ti, Mang Tian Chi was still a Dou Venerable. Later, during the events involving the Gu Clan, he beca a Half-Saint.
Xiao Ming speculated that Mang Tian Chi must have relied on the Black Demon Lightning to make a breakthrough.
However, considering Mang Tian Chi's cultivation realm, it wasn't easy for him to capture the Black Demon Lightning. It was likely that he had visited this place several tis before he managed to capture one. As for Mang Tian Chi's ability to devour the Black Demon Lightning, it was probably due to his affiliation with the Lei Clan. There might be so special techniques or factors involved.
Of course, what had been ntioned so far were events from the original tiline. As for the current situation, this was Mang Tian Chi's first ti at the Void Lightning Pool.
As Mang Tian Chi finished introducing his affiliation, Xiao Ming began to speak.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I'm Xiao Ming, and now that I think about it, I should address you as Headmaster."
"What? Headmaster?" Mang Tian Chi's eyes widened in surprise.
"Wait, you're Xiao Ming? The one from Heavenly Court? You're the one from Jia Nan Academy!"
Seeing Xiao Ming nod with a smile, the trace of nervousness in Mang Tian Chi's heart quickly disappeared.
"Hahaha, the first ti we t, and I didn't even recognize you. So you're the Xiao Ming that Su Qian kept ntioning in his ssages to !"
The old man's beard twitched, followed by a cheerful grin. He moved closer to Xiao Ming's side and then reached out to pinch him. Chuckling, he said, "Well done, well done. Su Qian has not misled this ti. You truly are an incomparable prodigy!"
Xiao Ming's lips twitched as he looked at the old man smiling happily in front of him. The old man had been worried about possibly fighting him earlier, and now he was getting so close. This personality was truly perplexing, leaving Xiao Ming unsure of how to react.
