”W-What the hell is that?!” Dugu Liubai exclaimed in shock.

He had never before seen such a method of inducing a lightning strike from the Heavens as if it was under one's beck and call like that!

After the other party had dived into the water previously, the latter had only rose one hand towards the sky, before lightning bolts from the 8 different cardinal directions instantly scrambled through the sky to meet at one point exactly above the position of that hand before striking down!

And by the looks of it, when the lightning bolts struck down, it coalesced together to form a weapon, a great axe made up entirely of lightning!

Even for someone like him, Dugu Liubai, whom had already experienced the many vicissitudes of life, had never before seen something as bizarre as this!

”Ahh! All those Krakens were electrocuted when the lightning bolts touched the water..”

Dugu Liubai watched as the Krakens began to float ontop of the water one by one, unconscious while their body twitched every so often.

”To think that the lightning bolts called upon by this fellow was so strong that even Nascent Soul realm monsters were affected to this extent.. just what is the origin of that great axe?” he said as he couldn't help but to ponder upon this.

He himself had some weapons in his disposal that could be considered as legendary as well with even more terrifying nature and damage to it, but he could sense that the lightning elements within Duan Li's great axe has the nature of a lightning tribulation in it!

But how could that possibly be?

No one should be able to harness such a thing, especially not mortal!

”And that sword on his left hand.. its a sword with a spirit? That's quite the rare stuff he has there..”

If he remembered correctly, there was no blacksmith in the Tian continent back then whom possessed the capability to smith a weapon with a spirit..

Was there actually someone so formidable right now?

”Furthermore, his skill arts.. was it just me or its a little bit too powerful for someone of his realm?”

That palm attack and sword strikes even managed to repel the attacks from Nascent Soul realm monsters!

One has to remember that Duan Li was just at the Core formation realm while the pack of monsters were one whole realm higher than him!

Therefore, logically speaking, it shouldn't even cause a graze, let alone some slight damage, but the other party somehow managed to hurt the Krakens!

Thus, Dugu Liubai couldn't help but to cup his chin and pondered upon this, ”Was the identification system for the Eternal maze broken?”

...

Puah!

Duan Li swam back to the surface, and climbed atop of one of the unconscious Kraken.

Throwing the Eternal Great Axe on his right hand into the air, with a slight 'Bzztt!', the weapon dissipated back into 8 individual lightning bolts before zapping towards the sky to return from whence they came.

Pant! Pant!

”That took quite the toll on my body without my normal stamina..” Duan Li breathed out rapidly and had to stand from his kneeling position with the help of his hands.

I hadn't really noticed before, but the Eternal Great Axe had actually ate up a lot of my stamina as well, not just my spiritual Qi!

'I really have to train my physical body sometimes..'

Should I be like Shen Murong? But he is too big.. hmm.. I'll aim for a leaner muscle definition next time..

For Duan Li, after reaching the Core formation realm pinnacle, he doesn't have to temper his body like the one he did back in the lower realm. After all, the Crimson mysterious pearl had automatically reinforced his internal body state, meridians and pathways right after he ascended!

Although he had not yet managed to uncover more secrets of what the crimson mysterious pearl could do, just this function alone was really convenient for him!

Whoever made these mysterious pearls, you have my thanks!

Staring at the unconscious kraken below his feet with a snort, Duan Li activated his Tetra Soul Sense!

Wengg!!

”Ohh! That's a really nice and big monster core!” he said, excited upon the thought of being able to cultivate it and incubate another Elemental Spirit Origin like Dilong and Zhulong in the future.

Raising his sword, Duan Li struck down.

Clang!!
