Chapter 216: Crazy Breakthrough! Great Solar Thunder Body, Three-Stripe Thunder Body
Lin Yan's practice at the Great Demon Gate lasted for several days. After all, cultivating his Thunder Body was a challenge, as it came from a divine martial art from the Great Military World, and improving wasn't easy. And if his Jade Thunder Body could advance to another level, it would directly enter the level of the Great Solar Thunder Body. So this was a crucial moment for improvement.
Under these circumstances, although Lin Yan had the powerful support of the Dark God Lightning, achieving a successful breakthrough would require time and effort. Therefore, during the following days, he endured the lightning strikes in the same place.
And this behavior naturally attracted the attention of all the warriors within the Great Demon Gate.
At first, these warriors thought it was a natural disaster, but when they realized it was Lin Yan's demonstration, they were completely impressed.
But that wasn't the most shocking thing for them. The most surprising thing was seeing Lin Yan enduring the lightning strikes for several consecutive days. Seeing those huge lightning bolts fall, many present warriors felt scared.
Because they knew that if they were hit by those lightning bolts, they could die instantly. But Lin Yan, on the other hand, was continuously enduring them. The strangest thing was that he showed no signs of injury at all.
In fact, his body became stronger under the influence of the lightning. At this moment, Mu Lei, Mu Qianqian, and the disciples of the Great Demon Gate were still observing from afar on the back mountain of the Great Demon Gate. Lin Yan stood in front of them with his hands crossed, letting the lightning strike him.
And in the background, the disciples of the Great Demon Gate were completely astonished to witness this scene. "He has been struck by these lightning bolts for three consecutive days, without eating, drinking, sleeping, or resting. He's incredibly resilient!"
"Is this the power of the number one in the Great Desert County? It's truly terrifying!"
"Before, I didn't believe in his power, I didn't believe he was as terrifying as rumored. But now I do. His power is even more formidable than rumored." The disciples of the Great Demon Gate were constantly discussing. Meanwhile, Lin Yan suddenly opened his eyes. With the opening of his eyes, a terrifying primal energy surged from his body. "Humph!" He grunted coldly.
Then, his body, which was previously translucent, became even more solid.
He stood up, and a powerful force surged from his body. On his chest, three lightning marks appeared! This indicated that Lin Yan had elevated his Jade Thunder Body to the level of the Great Solar Thunder Body.
And he even brought his One-Stripe Thunder Body directly to the level of Three-Stripe Thunder Body! This was a qualitative leap!
"Return!" With a gesture of his hand, Lin Yan retrieved his Dark God Lightning Platform. The dark clouds that had persisted in the air disappeared instantly. Bright light reappeared.
"Congratulations on the breakthrough, young friend," Mu Lei quickly said, approaching Lin Yan with respect. After this incident, his understanding of Lin Yan's power deepened even further. He knew very well that when Lin Yan killed Teng Sha last time, he hadn't even used all his power. So facing such a powerful expert was as easy as crushing an ant for him.
Therefore, facing Lin Yan now filled him with great fear. "It's just luck," Lin Yan responded with a slight smile. Then, he turned to Mu Lei and said, "However, Lightning Master, I just made a breakthrough and still don't fully understand my current strength.
How about you help me test it?" But when Mu Lei heard these words, he couldn't help but frown. After all, he knew very well how formidable Lin Yan's power was. Needless to say, but those terrifying Dark God Lightning bolts we've seen before, any strike from one of them would be enough to undo someone completely.
However, when those lightning bolts hit Lin Yan, it seems like nothing happens to him at all. This is enough to demonstrate how powerful Lin Yan is. So when it comes to facing someone with Lin Yan's power, Mu Lei really has his doubts. He wonders if he has somehow offended him unknowingly and if Lin Yan is looking for an excuse to eliminate him. With an uncomfortable expression, Mu Lei looks at Lin Yan and says, "Can we leave it, friend? With my level of skill, I can face others, but with you? Wouldn't that be like putting my life in danger?"
Mu Lei can't worry about his own prestige at this moment. After all, he knows very well that if he were to really fight against Lin Yan, he would probably be killed. And if that were to happen, there would be no way to save his reputation.
Therefore, at this moment, he directly addresses Lin Yan and says, "Lord of Lightning, you don't have to worry. I won't attack. What I mean is, you can attack me with all your strength, with the intent to kill, while I do nothing." Lin Yan tells Mu Lei with a smile. Upon hearing this, Mu Lei finally feels relieved. After all, he doesn't have the courage to directly face Lin Yan.
But if Lin Yan doesn't retaliate, then the situation is completely different. If Lin Yan doesn't defend himself, Mu Lei does dare to attack. "I understand. That's not a problem." So, at this moment, Mu Lei directly accepts Lin Yan's proposal. But before attacking, he makes sure several times, "Friend Lin Yan, have I offended you, right? You're not going to attack me again, right?" Lin Yan shakes his head with an ironic smile.
"Don't worry, Lord of Lightning. For Qianqian's sake, I couldn't attack you." Mu Lei finally feels relieved.
He quickly focuses his internal energy. Then, he draws his spiritual weapon, a large sword, and channels all his internal energy into it. Instantly, after channeling his energy, the blade of the sword shines with energy. Mu Lei grabs the sword and employs one of the ninth-grade martial techniques he masters, and rushes towards Lin Yan. "Demon's Great Slash!" When the sword swings, the powerful energy creates a large ghostly shadow next to Mu Lei.
The sword falls, and the ghost's shadow, also holding a sword, also falls. Two strikes combined, cutting forward with force, creating such a terrifying energy that it almost tears the surrounding space apart.
"Demon's Great Slash! Isn't this the Lightning Master's most powerful attack!? I can't believe he even used this!" "Will Lin Yan be able to withstand it? He's not defending himself at all! Can he really do it just with his body?"
"I'm really not sure. He's not even afraid of those black lightning bolts. I think he could withstand the Lightning Master's attack too." The disciples of the Great Demon Gate comment after seeing Mu Lei using this technique.
At this moment, they are completely amazed, watching the two in front of them, unable to contain their astonishment. And Lin Yan, surprisingly, still stands motionless.
Soon, his body is struck by the sword. But even though the sword hits him, his body suffers no damage.
Mu Lei feels as if his attack had hit the hardest thing in the world. No matter how hard he tries, he can't penetrate Lin Yan's defense. So even Mu Lei is surprised: "Friend Lin Yan, how resilient you are!" He quickly withdraws his sword. Then, he can't help but thumbs up to Lin Yan. "You're amazing, friend Lin Yan. Even my most powerful strike couldn't break through your defense. Your body really has left me speechless.
" He tells Lin Yan with admiration, truly impressed by his terrifying power. Meanwhile, Mu Qianqian, who is behind them, suddenly blushes. Because she had been thinking earlier if Lin Yan were to use his God of Thunder Body and his Great Solar Thunder Body when they were together, wouldn't he tear her apart? She shakes her head and quickly stops that dangerous thought. Then, she leads Lin Yan back to the Great Demon Gate to rest. After all, even Lin Yan must feel very tired after so many days of continuous training. As hosts, it is their duty to take good care of him. Lin Yan recuperates under Mu Qianqian's hospitality. After that, several days pass within the Great Demon Gate.
But Lin Yan is not one to stay still. Although the hospitality within the Great Demon Gate is excellent, after a few days of rest, he starts to feel bored.
So Lin Yan decides to go directly to see Mu Lei and says to him, "Lord of Lightning, I need a small favor, could you help me?" Naturally, Mu Lei won't refuse to help Lin Yan, so he responds immediately: "Of course, friend Lin Yan, as long as I can help you, I'll be happy to do so."
Lin Yan smiles and accepts: "Then, thank you Lord of Lightning." Soon, he expresses his request. Of course, his request is not excessive. After all, he just wants Mu Lei to mark some special areas within the Great Wilderness County on a map.
Mu Lei is an important figure in the Great Wilderness County, so he surely knows much more about the place than Lin Yan. Now that Lin Yan has finished exploring the Great Demon Gate, he naturally plans to explore other places. "Oh, that's all. It's not a big deal."
Mu Lei immediately responds with a smile upon hearing Lin Yan's request. Then, he marks many special areas on the map.
Lin Yan takes a look at the map and finds out that he has visited some of the marked areas, like the Ancient Abandoned Ravine and the Dark Yin Ravine. It doesn't make sense to go back to those places. But there are also some areas marked by Mu Lei that he hasn't visited.
Like the Yin Mountain or the Black Forest! Hearing those names, Lin Yan feels they are very interesting and decides to explore them. So he soon communicates his intention to Mu Lei. "Lord Lin Yan, would you mind taking Qianqian with you?" "Recently, Qianqian is free and also wants to go out to distract herself."
After learning about the situation, Mu Qianqian also asks Lin Yan. Lin Yan naturally doesn't reject the idea and accepts immediately.
Afterwards, he takes Mu Qianqian to their destination. Today they finally arrive at their destination. The Yin Mountain. It is said that here there is a demonic beast in the realm of the Great Creation, so it is considered a forbidden area throughout the Great Wilderness County. But with Lin Yan's current power, he is not afraid of a beast of this level.
So after successfully entering the area, he easily kills the demonic beast in the realm of the Great Creation and completes the registration.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully completing the registration at Yin Mountain!]
[Reward: Fifth Grade Spiritual Formation: Broken and Annihilated Soul Formation!]
Lin Yan takes a quick look at the formation and starts trying to set it up. It doesn't take long before he successfully establishes a large black formation. This is an extremely special formation. After it is activated, countless ghostly shadows appear around him. Influenced by these shadows, the surrounding area becomes extremely gloomy, and many plants, trees, and animals have their vitality instantly drained.
"This formation is terrifying!" Mu Qianqian is astonished to see this. It is the first time she has seen Lin Yan use a spiritual formation, so she is extremely impressed. "This guy is really creepy, how can he suddenly use something so terrifying?" "This seems to involve life and death and is not a common spiritual formation.
" Xiao Diao is also very surprised. Since she has been following Lin Yan, she has noticed that every so often, he suddenly has some kind of epiphany. And then he can use new abilities right away. This seems incredible to her. Because it is very clear that he has not had any extraordinary experiences during the time she has been with Lin Yan.
So that means all these things he is creating are originally his.
This is even more amazing, as among cultivators, one in a thousand can create their own martial arts, let alone Lin Yan, who every time he creates something new, it turns out to be extremely powerful. So for him, this is almost a miracle.
"He is a genius."
"Lin Dong, if you lose to him, it's not unfair."
Xiao Diao increasingly feels that all this is incredible and, in the end, cannot help but sigh. Lin Yan doesn't know what Xiao Diao is thinking. Soon, he heads to the next place and completes the registration.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the registration at the Black Forest!]
[Reward: Spiritual Fusion Grass! Celestial Soul Sprout.]
Lin Yan takes a look at the system and sees a large number of rewards. After obtaining these rewards, Lin Yan is a little puzzled, because it seems he has enough ingredients to refine the Spiritual Fusion Pill he promised to Queen Medusa.
