Chapter 655: Chapter 655: Chaos Heavenly Thunder_1 Chapter 655: Chapter 655: Chaos Heavenly Thunder_1 Within the Northern Border Ruins.
As soon as Xu Fan entered, he noticed towering ancient trees around him, their trunks at least several ters thick, branches and leaves lush and exuberant, canopies like dark clouds covering the sun and sky, like a prival forest.
He couldn’t even na the trees, but he felt an ancient aura rushing toward him.
With a light leap, Xu Fan reached the canopy of an ancient tree and looked up to see a gray and monotonous sky.
Below the sky, there were massive tufts of reddish-brown clouds akin to fiery clouds, oddly filled with incessant thunder and lightning, with lightning streaking across the sky and thunder booming, a harbinger of an impending storm.
The air here carried a moist scent, giving the skin the feeling of freshness after rains in the mountains.
Xu Fan breathed in the air contentedly, feeling as if he had escaped the world’s noise and returned to nature.
...
Of course, the main attraction was the area’s nature’s spiritual energy, which was remarkably dense, at least a dozen tis richer than that of Sea Blue Star.
Breathing it in refreshed the mind and invigorated the spirit.
If he were to cultivate in such an environnt, his progress would increase at least tenfold.
Regrettably, it only opened for ten hours, and with such a short interval, there were limited gains to be had from re cultivation.
With that in mind, he moved, beginning to collect heavenly materials and earthly treasures while expanding his Divine Sense.
He frowned suddenly, as the suppression on Divine Sense here was quite severe, limited to only half the range he had outside, barely fifty to sixty ters.
He took a deep breath and ceased to underestimate the ruins.
However, looking at it from another angle, the more complex the ruins, the more unusual the treasures that appeared would be.
Thus, he maintained the maximum range of his Divine Sense to increase his chances of finding treasures and to have the best possible early detection of dangers.
“Whoosh!”
After discerning the direction, Xu Fan flew toward the thirty-degree angle on his left.
The ruins were vast, and even if he were to sweep through them in ten hours, he estimated the Northern Territory Sovereign’s inheritance would have been snatched away.
So he aid first for the center of the ruins, to fulfill the task he promised to Long Guhuang.
However, the first ten minutes yielded him nothing; he only passed by a few Ancient Martial Artists without being noticed by them.
Shortly after, his Divine Sense sensed the presence of a living being ahead—a serpent upon closer examination.
Strangely, the serpent’s whole body was a ghostly blue dashed with star-like spots of purple, its nearly transparent body about one zhang long, and it wasn’t crawling on the ground but flying through the air, several ters above.
What the hell?
Xu Fan was sowhat astonished and imdiately used his Divine Sense to scrutinize its body, only to be t with an invisible energy barrier protecting its surface.
“Hehe…”
Xu Fan developed so interest and descended to approach, but the serpent-like being was extrely sensitive and detected his probing Divine Sense.
It turned its head and lashed its tail to fly toward Xu Fan at light speed; within a single breath, it had blocked Xu Fan’s path in the air.
“Bang!”
The serpent-like creature opened its wide mouth, baring sharp scarlet fangs, and spat a pale purple bolt of lightning at Xu Fan.
Xu Fan did not dodge or avoid, curious to experience the force and nature of the lightning, and let it strike his chest.
He imdiately recognized that such feeble lightning was nothing more than a tickle for him.
A faint tingling sensation suddenly arose in his chest, which seed sowhat peculiar.
Xu Fan was startled, and then a bright joy lit up in his eyes, for this thunder was no ordinary lightning, but Chaos Heavenly Thunder!
Chaos Heavenly Thunder is a type of lightning elental Spiritual Energy that wanders within nature; it is quite special as it can directly target the souls of living beings, producing unique effects similar in so ways to celestial treasures.
Therefore, it is extrely rare and difficult to co by.
According to Xu Fan’s understanding of this thunder, it had an astonishingly lethal effect on the soul.
Fortunately, Xu Fan was proficient in various soul-based mystical arts, though he had scarcely used them, partially due to the heavy toll they took in relation to his current limited strength.
Additionally, they required specific elents to complent the arts to achieve their intended potent effects.
Thus, upon perceiving the elent of Chaos Heavenly Thunder, his heart swelled with joy; if he could obtain this elental power, and employ it in the corresponding soul mystical arts, as long as the enemy was not specifically guarding against this move, it was highly likely to achieve a fatal strike.
Of course, the utility of Chaos Heavenly Thunder elents was not limited to this; another reason people sought after it was its ability to be absorbed, thereby greatly enhancing the absorber’s ntal strength.
As everyone knows, it is very hard to improve ntal strength.
If it wasn’t for the stronger soul Xu Fan possessed after his rebirth, he wouldn’t have had the ntal strength of the Foundation Establishnt Stage when he was just beginning his cultivation.
But now that he had reached the Foundation Establishnt Stage, his ntal strength had only increased marginally, an effect brought about by his advancent in realm.
Ɲονǥᴑ.сο
The first thought he had after sensing the elent of Chaos Heavenly Thunder was to search for more to enhance his own ntal strength.
In comparison to progressing in his own realm, he actually placed greater importance on improving his ntal strength.
Consequently, he imdiately concentrated and began scrutinizing the elental creature before him; this being expelled Chaos Heavenly Thunder when opening its mouth, and was not composed of flesh and blood, resembling more an entity ford of elental Spiritual Energy.
Hence, it was possible to refine and assimilate it using mystical arts, facilitating his absorption of the Chaos Heavenly Thunder.
Involuntarily, a beaming smile spread across his face.
This was fortune; this was a celestial treasure —perfectly suited for him.
What he was thinking now was that it was fortunate this site was large enough.
If he could refine even a few thousand snakes like the one before him from here, that would be an enormous profit.
Thereupon, his eyes emitted a layer of bluish-purple light, flickering with lightning; he was about to employ a Thunderous mystical art intended for refinent.
Instantly, the mystical art took effect, causing all nearby lightning elents to grow restless in unity.
Xu Fan then proceeded to form hand seals and cast spells, and electric arcs imdiately leapt from his fingertips, quickly sweeping towards the elental serpent.
The latter appeared quite sensitive, as if aware of the danger, it hastily spewed out several bolts of lightning in an attempt to obstruct, yet finding them ineffective, it twisted and fled, zipping away.
Regrettably, the arcs were faster, imdiately catching up with it.
The arc split into countless fine strands of light, weaving into a cage that trapped the elental serpent within.
“Bang!”
The creature, unable to contain its fury, spat lightning repeatedly, attempting to shatter the net of electric light around it.
After an eruption of sparks, countless sparks splashed out, and then everything returned to how it was before, with the cage of electric net remaining intact.
The elental serpent was instantly at a loss, beginning to careen wildly within, causing the Chaos Heavenly Thunder that constituted its body to loosen.
