Chapter 334 (2/2)

Originally, Mu Chen did not have such hopes. However, who would have known that he would actually appear at this moment? This kind of opportunity doesn’t come knocking on one’s door twice. One would be too stupid to forsake such an idea.

Beside him, Shen Cangsheng, Li Xuantong, and even Lin Zheng and the rest were casting somewhat envious looks towards Mu Chen. Being able to let the Northern Sea Dragon personally help one with their Spiritual Light Empowerment; within the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, Mu Chen could be considered to be the first.

“Since Mu Chen has such an opportunity, let him follow Lord Northern Sea.” Mo You said with a smile. This Mu Chen truly was a lucky fellow. He’s even able to meet up with such a good opportunity.

Luo Li released Mu Chen’s hand, while the anxiousness in her eyes dissipated, bit by bit. With a smile on her absolutely gorgeous face, she stared at Mu Chen, who had just obtain such good fortune.

“Then, I’ll go first.” said Mu Chen as he waved towards Luo Li. However, without waiting for him to say anymore words, the bald old man had already dragged him away. With a fluttering of space, the two of them instantly disappeared within the distortion.

Looking at the place where Mu Chen had disappeared into, Shen Cangsheng and the rest were still sighing with envy. Why doesn’t good fortune befall onto them?

“Stop sighing, this sort of good luck seems to be tied to not dying after absorbing and shattering the Divine Black Lightning in one’s body. If you guys want it, you can give it a try.” Mo You said indifferently.

Hearing his words, the expressions on Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong’s faces faintly changed. He had to be joking. The number of peak-level Spiritual Beasts killed by the Divine Black Lightning while trying to promote to become a Divine Beast was uncountable. What’s more, shattering it within one’s body. Even thinking about it would cause a person’s scalp to crawl. Only a freak like Mu Chen would do such an absurd thing.

Seeing the two becoming scared stiff, Mo You smirked, before turning around and heading into the great hall, with Luo Li rapidly following behind him.

“Sigh. Give it up. Seems like the both of us don’t have such a life. Don’t feel too bad about it.”

Helplessly patting Li Xuantong’s shoulder, Shen Cangsheng headed into the great hall. Looking at the back figure of Luo Li, Li Xuantong made a dejected sigh before following suit.

…

The moment he was grabbed onto by the bald old man, Mu Chen felt the scenery in front of him change so rapidly, he felt somewhat dizzy. An intense feeling of drowsiness erupted in his mind. Fortunately, this didn’t last long, before it rapidly dissipated.

“Okay.”

After hearing the indifferent-sounding voice of the bald old man, Mu Chen opened his eyes, before staring somewhat dumbfoundedly at the scenery before him.

This was a dim and dark place, with a profound and unfathomable black colour everywhere. Naturally, what created the most shock within Mu Chen was the unending sea of Black Lightning. Like thousands upon thousands of water pillars, Black Lightning fell from the sky into this Black Lightning sea.

Mu Chen stared at this sea as gigantic lightning bolts arced and danced around within. As deep and low rumbling sounds resounded across this world, it carried along with them the indescribable prestige of the heavens and earth.

“What is this place?” Mu Chen asked as his scalp started to crawl. The unending sea of Black Lightning in front of him was too terrifying.

“The last layer of the Lightning Territory.” The bald old man casually replied.

Mu Chen sucked in a breath of cold air. This was the final level of the Lightning Territory? No wonder there’s such terrifying lightning energies present here. Compared to here, even the 7th Level of the Lightning Territory would appear insignificant.

“Carefully feel it. Aren’t there some slightly familiar fluctuations within there?” asked the bald old man with a grin as he pointed towards the unending Black Lightning sea.

Panning his doubtful gaze outwards, he tried to sense what the bald old man was talking about. After a long while, his face, however, started to turn slightly pale as he said, while being overwhelmed with shock, “These are… the fluctuations of Divine Black Lightning?”

Within the Black Lightning sea, Mu Chen discovered the fluctuations of Divine Black Lightning!

Unexpectedly, there’s actually Divine Black Lightning hidden within the black-coloured lightning sea!

The quantity present was seemingly more terrifying than those present in the Nine Netherbird’s tribulation.

Who would have thought that there would actually be so many Divine Black Lightning present in the final level of the Lightning Territory?

“As for the other levels of the Lightning Territory, their lightning energies are formed from those that have dissipated from here,” explained the bald old man with a smile.

Hearing that, Mu Chen was speechless as his heart was filled with shock.

“Senior, what exactly did you call me here to do?” Unable to resist his curiosity anymore, Mu Chen asked his question with some worry. This place was too terrifying, and any casual Divine Black Lightning that descended might be capable of blasting him into bits. He truly wasn’t able to think of how, exactly, he could help the Northern Sea Dragon.

Rubbing his withered palms together, a smile surfaced on the wrinkled and dried-up face of the bald old man. However, this smile only caused Mu Chen’s goosebumps to instantly stand up as a feeling of unease erupted from within his body.

Extending his finger, the bald old man pointed towards the Black Lightning sea that filled the space in front of them as a laughing voice rang out.

“I want you to help me retrieve something from within the lightning sea.”
