Chapter 567 – Shame of the Thunder Hollow Beast
“Haha, since the three of us are each other’s neighbors, we should take care of each other, with the Thunderfire Star Cave’s cultivators patrolling and guarding, there’s not much of a problem with safety inside the Thunder Sea, so if you have the chance, you can go and explore together for a while.”
One-eyed Nian laughed cheerfully.
“Definitely definitely.”
Lu Xuan was busy nodding his head.
“Alright, it’s getting late, so I won’t bother you, Fellow Daoist Lu, if you have time, you can come over to the cave to sit and exchange your cultivation experience.”
The two of them chatted for a while longer before getting up and leaving.
“Alright, come over to visit the two Fellow Daoists then.”
Lu Xuan asked the two for the detailed location of the cave and took out two white jade vials from his storage bag.
“These two bottles hold the kind of Spirit Syrup that was just brewed by me personally, the two Fellow Daoists can bring it back to their cave and savor it at their leisure.”
“Many thanks to Fellow Daoist Lu for the gift of treasures.”
When the two heard this, joy appeared on their faces, and they received the white jade vials, and their bodies disappeared into the thunder awns.
Lu Xuan opened the formation, and the cave was hidden in the thick white mist.
Turning around, he returned to the courtyard, deep in thought.
“The Sea of Thunder is definitely the place to go, and at that time, the main reason for choosing this Thunderfire Star Cave was to facilitate the cultivation of the Sixth Grade Phoenix Wood and Violet Violet Extended Thunder Fruit.”
“With Heavenly Star Cave cultivators on guard, there shouldn’t be much of a problem with security.”
He thought in his mind and decided to visit the Thunder Sea in a few days.
Among other things, the main thing was to have enough confidence in his current strength, with many treasures in hand, even if it was an ordinary JieDan cultivator, he would have the power to fight.
Seven days later, he will cave in the spiritual plants carefully cultivate some, set off to the Thunder Sea.
Along the way, the subtle lightning awns spread throughout the Thunderfire Star Cave automatically avoided Lu Xuan under the effect of the Thunderfire Order.
Lu Xuan hurried along quickly and slowly, while not forgetting to observe the surrounding scene.
“The Thunderflame Star Cave is indeed not small in size, and one can see caves all around, however, it’s not common to see caves that are bigger than mine, and there are even instances where several people have rented a separate compound.”
His Spiritual Sense far exceeded that of an ordinary late Foundation Establishment cultivator, and as he casually swept through, he was able to see everything around him clearly.
“There are still quite a few Qi Practicing Cultivators living inside the Thunderfire Star Cave, however, it should be difficult for ordinary Qi Practicing Scattered Cultivators to support a long term rent.”
“Perhaps it’s because they are practicing some sort of thunder-attribute technique and art and collecting some type of thunder power that they choose to live in the Thunderfire Star Cave for a short period of time.”
Lu Xuan speculated.
Foundation Establishment cultivators were extremely common in the Thunderfire Star Cave, not even less than Qi Practicing cultivators.
He was also sharp-eyed, and when he saw the cave of a JieDan cultivator, he hurriedly avoided it from afar.
After a little more than half a day, he arrived at the edge of the Thunder Sea.
The edge is constantly extending, and every ten miles there is a Heavenly Star Cave cultivator on guard.
He had previously learned from Luo Ming and the two men that Heavenly Star Cave had opened up a number of passages in the Thunder Sea, allowing cultivators to easily enter it, and as long as they showed the Thunder Flame Order to the guarding cultivator, they would be able to enter the Thunder Sea for a period of time.
If he wanted to cross over the guarding cultivator and find another way to enter from somewhere else by himself, firstly, it would be quite difficult unless he had the strength of a JieDan cultivator, and secondly, he might encounter unknown dangers, and he didn’t know what kind of mysterious thunderbeasts or thunder dissimilarities he would run into.
Lu Xuan did not have the idea of testing the thunder with his body, and honestly came to a guarding cultivator.
“Fellow Daoist, please show me your Thunderfire Order.”
After the few people in front of him entered the Sea of Thunder, the cultivator on duty smiled and said to Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan hurriedly took out the Thunderfire Order and handed it over to the cultivator.
The cultivator used a seal drawn with countless arcane silver-white thunder patterns to gently press on the Thunderfire Order and gave it back to Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan had learned from the two Lei Zhengs that the number of times one could explore the Thunder Sea and obtain resources was limited, and was determined based on the rent of the tenancy period of the cultivator in the Thunderfire Star Cave, which was considered to avoid any cultivator from wantonly gripping the wool of the Thunderfire Star Cave.
Lu Xuan glanced at the Thunderfire Order in his hand, and seemed to feel a hint of a meaningful change occurring within it, but he was unable to detect what exactly.
“Fellow Daoist should be entering the Thunder Sea for the first time, right?” The cultivator on duty learned this information from the Thunder Fire Order and said to Lu Xuan.
“That’s right.”
Lu Xuan admitted truthfully.
“There are quite a few Mysterious Thunder Beasts inside the Sea of Thunder, and some of them are extremely aggressive and very dangerous to cultivators.”
“However, the thunder beasts are mainly located in the center area, so you don’t have to worry.”
“Entering the Thunder Sea from this passageway, it’s possible that you’ll come across a Thunder Hollow Beast, with a strength close to that of a pre-JieDan cultivator, and with relatively obvious physical features that can be recognized at a glance.”
“This Thunder Harvest Beast, however, is a bit different from the other Thunder Harvest Beasts, often guarding the side of the passageway, not going to actively attack cultivators entering the Thunder Sea, only to beg for a spirit fruit and a piece of demonic beast meat.”
“If you see it, you can try to feed it, or you can choose to avoid it, but it’s not recommended to go and have a fight with that Thunder Hollow Beast.”
“Below JieDan, the odds are that you won’t be able to defeat it.”
The cultivator on duty suggested.
“A demonic beast that guards the cultivator begging for food?”
“That would be a real shame for the Thunder Hollow Beast ……”
“What’s even more shameful is that the passing cultivators still can’t beat it.”
Lu Xuan felt amused in his heart as he held the Thunder Fire Order in his hand and entered the Thunder Sea Surrounding Area.
“Rumble!”
As soon as he entered, a thunderclap exploded in his ears, deafening and extremely powerful.
There were countless lightning rays slowly swimming around him, and occasionally, a thick thunder would emerge from the depths and ruthlessly slash down.
Fortunately, with the Thunder Fire Order in his hand, he was spared the risk of being struck by thunder.
“However, looking at the Thunder Flame Order like this, the ability to withstand it should be limited, and if it were to enter the depths of the Thunder Sea, it would be impossible to dispel all of the power of the thunder as it is now.”
Lu Xuan noticed this phenomenon.
Suddenly, with a thought, the Mirage Sound Treasure Pearl that was integrated between his throat protruded out, constantly changing its form.
A thunderous sound seemed to enter the interior of the treasure pearl.
“Rumble!”
Lu Xuan’s lips opened and a rigid thunder sound exploded, triggering a strange movement of thunder qi around him.
“The Mirage Sound Treasure Pearl has acquired one more strange sound.”
Lu Xuan kept trying, becoming more and more skillful, and in the end, there was no longer much difference between it and the sound of real thunder.
The Mirage Sound Treasure Pearl in his throat was refined from the demonic pills of the ancient strange beast, the Mirage Sound Beast, which could collect, imitate, and inspire the strange sounds of the world, and had many uses.
He noticed all kinds of strange thunder sounds in this sea of thunder, so he had a sudden idea to collect and mimic all kinds of thunder sounds, which was also considered to be one more means of sonic attack.
“Thunder sounds tend to be rigid and overbearing, and are especially restraining to those demons and evil spirits.”
Lu Xuan was satisfied in his heart and continued onward.
Two to three miles ahead, suddenly, the Spiritual Sense sensed a powerful beast in front of him.
His heart was in awe, and he immediately thought of the Thunder Hollow Beast that the on-duty cultivator had described as begging for food, so he observed it from a distance.
Ten feet ahead squatted a wolf-shaped demonic beast, its fur was silver-white, and from time to time, thunder light surged, making every hair on its body stand up high.
Demonic beast body size is huge, but squatting motionless, round belly against the ground, has not conform to the strength, appearance of good behavior.
“This is the shame of that Thunder Harvest Beast?”
Lu Xuan was instantly enlightened.
