Mu Chen’s intent drifted in this darkness. He was so dizzy, it felt like it was never-ending.

Within the darkness, there seemed to be a black light surging and took form beneath Mu Chen. It seemed to be a fuzzy image of a girl and her palm gently caressed Mu Chen’s intent.

Under her gentle touch, there was an indescribable softness that fluctuated in Mu Chen’s heart. That sensation was similar to a mother’s embrace.

The warmth made him unable to struggle free.

Under the warmth, there was a stream flowing within Mu Chen’s body, as though it had soothed the injuries within him.

A trace of soberness surged up in his fuzzy state. Mu Chen tried his utmost to widen his eyes and look at that fuzzy and warm figure. However, he still couldn’t get a clear glimpse of it.

However, the bizarre sensation of a blood-bond made him understand that he had some kind of relationship with that warm figure. In his childhood dreams, it was that figure that guarded him.

“Mother!”

Mu Chen tried his best to struggle and shortly after, he widened both of his eyes. His palm clawed towards that figure, but grabbed nothing but air.

“Ahhh!”

He opened both of his eyes and what he saw was a bright silvery light. Mu Chen still couldn’t even react to the situation but bore the urge to scream. The violent lightning energy was like steel barbs as it flowed over him. Thereafter, it flocked into his body.

The lightning energy was way too violent and, therefore, as it rushed in, it had directly caused intense pain to Mu Chen. His muscles around his body started to twitch.

Just when Mu Chen was at loss because of this, there was a faint silvery light being emitted from within his body. Under the shine of the silver light, Mu Chen’s body was like a starving person seeing food, and started to violently devour the lightning energy.

That intense pain instantly surged in a violent manner.

Mu Chen clenched his teeth as a trace of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth. There was something that had suddenly appeared in his heart. It seemed to be a Thunder God Physique Deity Tier Spiritual Art.

“Was it left behind by that bald old man?”

The thought flashed through Mu Chen’s heart and shortly after, he started to train under the influence of the Deity Tier Spiritual Art. When he circulated that art, he saw the insides of his body turning silver. As lightning flickered, his entire body, including his muscles, internal organs, meridians and bones, was endlessly devouring the lightning energy within his body.

And under the frantic devouring process, although Mu Chen still felt intense pain within his body, the fulfilling feeling of energy had surged up. The pain was comfortable and the feeling was bizarre.

Mu Chen didn’t know how powerful the Thunder God Physique that was left behind by the bald old man was, but he could clearly sense his physique becoming more and more powerful.

It seemed to be a Physique Cultivating Deity Tier Spiritual Art.

This made Mu Chen a little surprised. Among Spiritual Arts, Physique Cultivating were the rarest. And, right now, the reward that was given by the bald old man wasn’t just any Physique Cultivating Spiritual Art, but a Deity Tier one at that!

A Spiritual Art that could absorb lightning energy to refine one’s body.

“Although that old man’s methods are ruthless, he wasn’t petty.” Mu Chen muttered to himself. Shortly after, he didn’t dare to be distracted and cultivated this Physique Cultivating Deity Art with all his heart.

This cultivation continued for an entire three days of time. Within these three days of time, Mu Chen’s body was soaked in the depths of the lightning river, endlessly refining himself, again and again, with the lightning energy.

Furthermore, while Mu Chen was being refined by the lightning energy, the Thunder God Physique was constantly gathering the lightning energy around him and formed into a lightning ball.

Mu Chen did not absorb this lightning ball, but allowed it to circulate within his meridians, refining his meridians bit by bit, causing his meridians to be tougher.

This bizarre cultivation technique made Mu Chen feel a bit surprised. Shortly after, he could sense how extraordinary this Thunder God Physique was. However, when he was practicing the art, he could feel a flaw. Clearly, this Thunder God Physique must be an incomplete Spiritual Art.

That bald old man did not gift him the entire cultivation technique of the Thunder God Physique.

Although this made Mu Chen feel a little regret, he wasn’t too disappointed. It was already out of his expectations to acquire such a good harvest.

Three days later.

At the edge of the lightning river, the black flames that had covered the horizon were withdrawing. The Nine Netherbird issued a clear cry and drew them back into its body. On top of its head, the silvery river flowed as it floated. Within the powerful current, there was a large amount of Divine Lightning Beads flickering with lightning energy.

From just looking at it, there was at least more than ten thousand!

After refining all of these Divine Lightning beads, the Nine Netherbird looked towards the river with concern. However, it did not spot anything unusual.

It was a little anxious and, shortly after, it flapped it’s wings, and rushed into the river to search for Mu Chen.

Bang!

However, just when it was about to charge in, a surge of lightning soared up into the heavens, sweeping out with a tyrannical Spiritual Energy. The Lightning river exploded and a figure appeared on the horizon.
