Chapter 743 - The Leaderless Dragon Pack, The Overbrimming Power (1/2)

This brat never gives in; The harder it gets, the more stubborn he becomes!  Xin Huo thought insouciantly, I wonder if he can surpass all of them in one go?

Lei Zhe, 3rd level.

Zhong Yue raised his head high as he looked at the lightning loch above him. He calmed his palpitating heart and walked into it with conviction.

At the moment he moved, the lightning loch abruptly grew grander. The sides of the lightning loch morphed into four lightning walls that enclosed a lightning pool in the center. Countless lightning totem patterns paved across the walls, some were even innate lightning totem patterns!

The closer he got to the lightning loch, the higher and wider the walls became. Suddenly, lightning balls with electric arcs lashing in the space around rolled down from the lightning walls down at him.

"Brat Yue, this level is known as the Lightning Baptism. You have to fight your way through the walls and bath yourself in the lightning pool. In the lightning pool, you can find the Jade Lightning Liquid that can only be brewed by nature alone. Absorbing it is the only way to achieve the state of Pure Yang mortal body." Xin Huo said.

Zhong Yue nodded in understanding. This time, he didn't cast the Fuxi True Form but fought in his human state. This was because although the Fuxi True Form would overboost his power to a level beyond his human form, it wasn't the usual state he would appear in during the normal times as revealing his Fuxi identity would lead to unnecessary troubles that could bring death.

Thus, he wanted to improve his battle power in his base form, only using the Fuxi True Form for emergencies.

It was yet another bone-rattling battle. But in the end, Zhong Yue succeed in cleaving the lightning walls into halves and soaking himself in the lightning pool. As the grand lightning walls were shattered apart, the lightning pool had also shrunken into its normal size where he then leaped into and absorbed the Jade Lightning Liquid in it to heal his wounds.

The struggles to fight through the Ancient Lei Zhe Realm with the human form alone was real, what could've been achieved easily with his Fuxi True Form now became incredibly difficult in his human form. The wounds he suffered were severe, but the Jade Lightning Liquid was strong enough to heal them while simultaneously strengthening his mortal body.

As time flashed by, the Jade Lightning Liquid in the lightning pool was sucked dry without a single droplet remaining.

"It's still not enough to achieve the Pure Yang mortal body." Zhong Yue mumbled as he stood up and stretched his muscles. He could sense the improvements in his mortal body and Yuan Shen and that the Yin element in his soul was slowly washed off with his mortal body gradually transforming turning into the Pure Yang state.

He looked afar and his heart thumped upon seeing the many lightning lochs hovering in the air, numbering in the hundreds.

Sometime later, Zhong Yue was lying in the center of another lightning loch, gasping for air while he meticulously tended to his wounds.

Soon after, he appeared in just yet another lightning loch.

The injuries were grave still, but the wounds were considerably lesser than before.

Then the fourth lightning loch, the fifth…

Over the course of time, he had bathed himself in all of the lightning lochs; but his mortal body had still yet to achieve the Pure Yang state, it was still a fine line away. Left with no choice, he clenched the sabers in his hands and strode toward the fourth level Lei Zhe.

One level after another, when Zhong Yue eventually reached past the 20th level of Lei Zhe, his mortal body had finally entered the state of Pure Yang. By then, he had lost track of time long ago already. But seeing the completion of the Pure Yang mortal body, Zhong Yue heaved a breath of relief.

Not only that, but the Innate Lightning Qi he had been gathering along the levels had also finally come into shape, forming into his sixth surge of innate Qi and it was still consistently growing stronger!

Perhaps it was one of the unexplainable brilliance of the universe; when the Innate Lightning Qi was formed, it took the shape of a dragon, similar to the statues he has seen in the Lei Zhe Galaxy.

"No wonder the first innate Lei Zhe was a dragon, it's all because he manifested the natural appearance of the Innate Lightning Qi." Zhong Yue inspected the Innate Lightning Qi and praised.

"The next level is filled with the purest Innate Lightning Qi." Xin Huo prompted, "When compared to the Innate Lightning Qi, all the other lightning you've encountered in the previous 20 levels are just child's play. Be prepared, and be careful!"

Zhong Yue inhaled deeply and strode into the next level.

Once entered, the young man stood unmovingly with his mouth wide agape at the scene before him.

In front of him, was a Lei Zhe lightning loch was filled with lightning celestial dragons, of different sizes and different looks. But unlike those he has met before, they appeared to have their own minds and sentience, being able to bath themselves in the midst of lightning and play among themselves happily.

A swing of a tail and the clouds would rain; a wave of claw and a space rift was created; a simple breath exhaled would release a tremendous surge of lightning that could vaporize the air. These dragons were no ordinary ones to mess with.

But what was most astounding was these dragons were just mere manifestations of the Innate Lightning Qi, a dragon resembled a surge of Innate Lightning Qi!

"Oh my heavens…"

Zhong Yue sucked in a breath of cold air as he mumbled, "If the Innate Lightning Qi swarmed at me collectively…"

A cold air ran down his spine and he shivered in terror. Then suddenly, the innate dragon gods all turned their lantern eyes and stared at his face as if they could hear him.

An ominous feeling swallowed a huge chunk of his heart, and the next thing that filled his vision was the purplish innate lightning that the dragons blasted out from their mouths!

"Come at me then! Let's see who is afraid of the other one!" Zhong Yue raised up the sabers, morphed into the Fuxi True Form, and swallowed all the innate lightning down his throat. Then, he dashed to the innate dragon gods squarely while his Fuxi Yuan Shen was smithing the innate lightning in his stomach!

It was only seconds before Zhong Yue was launched flying in the air and crashed on the ground like a ragged doll. One of the dragon god rose its head above him, sucked a mouthful of air and blasted out the innate lightning right on Zhong Yue.

The lightning ravaged his body and mangled his nerves. The poor victim was seen twitching on the ground like an earthworm poured on by hot water. The innate dragon god then proceeded to scoff at the carbonized-human before it left him on the ground.

"Brat Yue, are you dead yet?" Xin Huo asked cautiously.

"Almost…" Zhong Yue's mortal body was squirming as the Immortal Body was playing its part. The broken bones were reattached while the little bone fragments that were unsalvageable were forced out from his body whereas the cooked meat fell to the ground as the new meat grew back in place.

He stood up and looked at the innate dragon gods in front of him with a headache. The Innate Lightning Qi was so much that even with his full Fuxi power, he would still face defeat.
