Peerless War God

When he heard this reply, the elder was furious. He raised his hand and sent out a slap. It landed solidly on the Zhou Family's Tribulation Transcender elder's face, causing large amounts of blood to splash out.    

The Zhou Family's Tribulation Transcender was slapped to the ground. His entire face was in a mess, and his flesh was badly mutilated. However, he didn't dare complain in the slightest.    

He quickly got up and carefully knelt on the ground, not daring to resist.    

He knew very well that the old man, who had received news of Zhou Jie's death, was already on the brink of rage. If he could only survive this slap, it would not be a loss at all.    

When the others saw this, they lowered their heads even lower.    

"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" The old man said angrily.    

"My Lord, we thought that the Young Lord's trip wouldn't be dangerous. After all, the Young Lord possessed three precious treasures, and he was protected by three guards at the intermediate-stage of Tribulation Transcender Realm. Coupled with the support of the Cloud Sky Pavilion, this is merely the Endless Sea. It's nothing. But... but who knows... "    

The Zhou Family's Tribulation Transcender Elder replied. The more he spoke, the less confidence he had. He was very afraid.    

In reality, it was just as he had said. Zhou Jie's strength was not bad, and with the Tribulation Transcender guarding him, there shouldn't be any danger.    

However, the Stormy Thunder Island was an extremely dangerous place. A moment of carelessness would cause one's soul to scatter. Cultivators who dared to venture deep into danger zones were not to be trifled with. All of them were powerful individuals.    

As such, it was even more dangerous for Zhou Jie, who was half dead.    

When he heard this, the old man let out a long sigh and sighed heavily.    

It had to be said that the words of the Zhou Family Elder were indeed not bad. Logically speaking, with such a precious treasure and the protection of three Tribulation Transcenders, there shouldn't be any danger to his life. Just what in the world had happened?    

He had to find out.    

"Endless Sea, Cloud Sky Pavilion, and Redbud Pavilion. Hmph, I'll find out everything and avenge my grandson."    

The old man said coldly. In the next moment, his figure disappeared from where he was standing, leaving the Zhou Clan and heading toward the Endless Sea.    

"Farewell, Family Head."    

"Farewell, Family Head."    

"Farewell, Patriarch."    

After the old man left, the many Zhou Family Elders let out a long sigh of relief. The pressure that the Family Head had given them just now was simply too great.    

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, all sorts of expressions on their faces.    

A moment later, an elder with white hair spoke, "This matter must be kept a secret. Anyone who dares to leak even the slightest bit of information will be killed without mercy."    

"Yes, Great Elder."    

"Yes."    

...    

Endless Sea, in the depths of Stormy Thunder Island.    

The lightning snakes danced wildly, and it was even more so in the depths of the lightning pool. The power of lightning filled the surroundings, and there was almost no gap at all.    

In this place, if one didn't have a late stage Tribulation Transcender cultivation base or a powerful body cultivator, they simply wouldn't be able to withstand the corrosion of such terrifying lightning.    

In other words, this place was safe for the time being, and indeed, the most dangerous place was the safest place.    

After killing Zhou Jie, Chen Xiao carefully ran far away before stopping and starting to heal his injuries.    

Half a month later, Chen Xiao slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath.    

"I've used up most of my medicinal pills. My injuries have finally recovered."    

Chen Xiao was very clear that if he did not have sufficient medicinal pills to support him in this kind of place, he was afraid that something would happen sooner or later. It was definitely not a place to stay for long.    

Fortunately, Zhou Jie had a lot of medicinal pills on him. He could still barely hold on for a period of time.    

"Xiluo, how far is the Thunder Island from here?" Chen Xiao asked.    

"Four to five hundred miles." In his soul sea, Xiluo replied.    

"So far?" Hearing this answer, Chen Xiao was greatly shocked.    

Although the term 'ten thousand li lightning cloud' was an exaggerated term, this terrifying lightning pool that stretched for a thousand li was a genuine existence that couldn't be faked.    

Just what kind of existence could create such a terrifying danger zone?    

"Yes, the deeper you go, the more powerful the lightning energy becomes. Without the strength of a late stage Tribulation Transcender, it's simply impossible to move an inch. Right now, being able to reach this place is already your limit. But... "Xiluo said again.    

"But what?" Chen Xiao asked.    

"But you have the Black Tower as a defensive treasure. Maybe you can go deeper." Xiluo said.    

"Tower of Void?"    

Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed. If it wasn't for the Tower of Void protecting him, the previous battle might not have been so easy for him.    

Should he continue going deeper into the lightning pool? This was a problem.    

Now that Chen Xiao was here, it was enough for him to condense the Tribulation Immortal Bone with the help of the lightning energy. However, at this rate, it would take him at least a hundred years.    

There was no way he could wait for such a long time.    

Should he go deeper?    

"My suggestion is to continue to go deeper and explore to the end." Hirose said.    

"Why?"    

"If my guess is right, if I continue going in, I will still encounter lightning essence crystals. The power of lightning is so abundant, so lightning essence crystals will definitely be born." Heruo said.    

"Are you talking about lightning essence crystal cores?" Chen Xiao was shocked, and his thoughts started to move.    

"No, it's a Thunder Crystal Core that is far purer and stronger than the Thunder Crystal Core. If you have this item, it will be enough to raise your Xuanji Puppet's combat strength to the intermediate Tribulation Immortal realm." Xiluo said.    

Hearing this, Chen Xiao's eyes lit up.    

"Besides, you still have these three heavy treasures. This will further reduce the pressure on you, and will allow you to get closer to the Thunder Island."    

"En, you're right."    

Speaking up to this point, Chen Xiao couldn't help but thank Zhou Jie. Not only were those three precious thunder-attribute treasures extremely valuable, they had also played an extremely important role in Chen Xiao's exploration of the lightning pool.    

Immediately, Chen Xiao sat down on the spot, took out the three lightning attribute treasures, and revealed them one by one in front of him.    

He first held the Lightning Shield in his hand. It was extremely heavy in his hand, and there were dense runes and formations engraved on it, giving off a shocking aura.    

"What a powerful shield. It even has a magical attack. It's really powerful, and its value is even higher than the Profound Plume Sword in my hand." Chen Xiao thought to himself.    

"Next, it's the Thunder King Armor."    

Among the three precious thunder-attribute treasures, the most precious one was the Thunder King Armor. Its value was far above the Thunder Shield and the God Slaying Saber.    

With this armor, he would be able to move unimpeded in this lightning pool.    

"What a good Thunder King Armor. Truly ingenious and formidable. It was a pity that this armor could not even unleash a tenth of its power in the hands of that Zhou Jie. What a waste of a treasure! Now that it has fallen into my hands, haha! Zhou Jie! I still have to thank you. " Chen Xiao started laughing out loud.    

Sure enough, no matter when, killing and seizing treasures was the fastest way to get rich.    

Of course, this was also extremely dangerous.    

"Alright, quickly refine this armor. We don't have much time." Xiluo urged.    

"Alright."    

Now that Zhou Jie was dead, the soul imprint he had left on the Thunder King Armor had long since dissipated. With that, Chen Xiao would be able to refine him for his own use without any hindrance.    

Immediately, Chen Xiao sent his Divine Sense into the armor and began the refinement process.
