Chapter 569: Chapter 567 Gathering Thunder_1
He looked at the Thunder Beast with a clear expression in its eyes, a smile appearing on his lips as he slowly approached.
“You, this demon beast, are quite clever, relying on your strong strength, the advantages of the Thunder Sea, and guarding the Thunder Fire Star Cave, you’ve actually achieved such a living condition.”
When he was about twenty to thirty feet away from the Thunder Beast, Lu Xuan stopped.
Although he knew that this Thunder Beast was quite affectionate to cultivators, he still didn’t want to get too close just to be safe.
The Thunder Beast looked at Lu Xuan, its head tilted, both forelimbs stretched out, making a begging posture.
“Hahaha, you’ve evolved to this extent.”
Lu Xuan could not help but chuckle as he took out a piece of Demon Beast Meat from his storage bag and tossed it to the Thunder Beast.
The Thunder Beast caught it in one bite, chewed a few times, and then swallowed the Demon Beast Meat.
It stuck out its tongue, licking its lips, looking as if it still hadn’t had enough.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan took out a few Flaming Fruits and Ice Luo Fruits from his storage bag.
“Mixing and eating these two spirit fruits makes the taste even more wonderful.”
The Thunder Beast, being quite clever, understood his meaning and picked out the Ice-fire Dual Spirit Fruits, one of each, slowly chewing.
The two different types of spiritual powers exploded and blended in its mouth, letting this Thunder Beast enjoy the wonderful effects of the Ice and Fire Realm.
Lu Xuan took advantage of the gap while it was tasting the spirit fruit, focusing his mind on it, and immediately learned the detailed information about this Thunder Beast.
[Thunder Beast, a Fourth Grade Demon Beast, contains a trace of the thin blood line of the ancient strange beast Leisi, has the power of a Semi Fifth Rank Demon Beast, is adept at various thunder series formula methods, and is proficient in thunder teleportation.]
[It sought meat by selling itself, as long as there’s enough Demon Beast Meat, what’s wrong with letting those small cultivators touch it?!]
“It actually still has a trace of ancient strange beast bloodline, that’s quite an impressive background.”
Lu Xuan sighed, recalling the thought that emerged in his mind, and gently stretched his palm towards the head of the Thunder Beast.
The enormous Thunder Beast seemed to be worried that Lu Xuan wouldn’t be able to reach it, so it bent down, its round belly rolling on the ground causing ripples to form, its head proactively getting closer to Lu Xuan’s palm.
“A lofty Semi Fifth Rank Demon Beast, having no shame to this extent is such a disgrace!”
“If your fellow creatures see you, who knows how they’d laugh at you!”
Lu Xuan said softly.
“Snort~”
The Thunder Beast snorted, a thunder energy shot out, dissipating in the distance. It relaxed and exposed its belly to Lu Xuan, allowing him to touch it.
“Alright, I’ll bring you more delicious Spirit Fruits next time.”
Lu Xuan got up, smiled and said to the Thunder Beast, then entered the vast Thunder Sea.
Because the outskirts of the Thunder Sea are always bustling with cultivators, it is quite hard to find various types of spirit thunder there. There are only relatively pure natural thunder, which have a small nourishing effect on the Zewei Oblivion Thunderfruit.
However, he had no intention of going deeper into the Thunder Sea. This boundless area of Thunder Sea, with such a vast wealth of resources, certainly has rare treasures in the central region.
But opportunities always come with risks. Even in the outer region, one can encounter a Thunder Beast with the strength of a Semi Fifth Rank Demon Beast. As for the central region, it goes without saying.
Moreover, those who can enter the central region of the Thunder Sea are mostly Golden Core Real People, and possibly even the Primordial Infant True Monarchs.
The Zewei Oblivion Thunderfruit doesn’t have a high demand for spirit thunder in its early growth stage, a random collection would suffice for a long time.
He patiently searched the outskirts of the Thunder Sea, sometimes opening his palm to look at the emerging greyish-white eyes.
Although the Thunder Sea contains endless Thunder, the Void Nightmare Eye, as a Fifth Rank Treasure, is not greatly affected by the thunder in the peripheral areas.
“Hmm? It seems there’s a Five Elements Spirit Thunder.”
Lu Xuan sensed an unusual thunder disturbance not far to the left, and his body moved like a fleeting light, appearing in front of the Five Elements Spirit Thunder in an instant.
In front of him, a golden Spirit Thunder slowly swam like a fish. Its eyes were dazzling and within his perceptual knowledge, a powerful energy was contained.
“Gold Spiritual Thunder, famous for its staunch vigor.”
Lu Xuan recognized this frequently-seen Spirit Thunder in the Cultivation World.
With his powerful spiritual consciousness scanning the surroundings and confirming the absence of other cultivators, he took out an exquisite Jade box.
His spiritual sense slowly extended, pulling the Gold Spiritual Thunder closer little by little.
Then, gradually, he compressed the brilliant golden Spiritual power.
This process was extremely dangerous, as the Spirit Thunder itself contained powerful energy, which was incredibly volatile. He couldn’t damage the structure of the Spirit Thunder during compression, yet he needed to do it evenly and precisely. Even the slightest mistake could cause it to explode.
Fortunately, Lu Xuan’s spiritual consciousness far exceeded the average Foundation Establishment Late-term Cultivator, and he managed to compress the golden Spirit Thunder into a fingertip-sized Thunder bead without any danger.
He carefully put the golden Thunder bead into the Jade box, sealed it with a charm, and then placed it in the storage bag.
“After returning, as long as I stimulate the Thunder bead with spiritual power, I would be able to release the Gold Spiritual Thunder contained within it and cultivate the Zewei Oblivion Thunderfruit.”
“It’s a pity that there’s only one Spirit plant that needs the force of the Thunder, making it feel wasteful as there are countless Spirit Thunders in the boundless Thunder Sea and even Yin Thunders.”
Lu Xuan thought regretfully.
“Perhaps next time I can bring the Demonic Vine here and see if I can find one or two Spiritual Seeds in this Thunder Sea.”
With these thoughts in mind, he continued to search for Spirit Thunder in the Thunder Sea.
Half a day later, he found a few more Five Elements Spirit Thunders, in addition to plenty of other Thunders with various extraordinary abilities.
Lu Xuan felt satisfied and was about to return when suddenly, a dark purple Thunder Serpent shot out from the Sea of Thunder, carrying a deep purple thunder light, and rushed fiercely towards Lu Xuan.
“Hmm? A third-grade Thunder Beast dared to sneak attack me?”
Lu Xuan’s palm turned into a crystal-clear jade color and grabbed the head of the Thunder Serpent directly. His fingers were as hard as fine iron, shattering the serpent’s head.
Threads of dark purple thunder quickly spread over his arm. His spiritual power circulated, blood surged within his body, and his Tai Sui meat nourished flesh body burst forth with vibrant vitality, eliminating the dark purple thunder on his arm.
“So reckless. Instead of following the path set by your seniors to hunt for food, you foolishly tried to eat a big catch in one bite, and now look, your head has exploded.”
With a cold laugh, Lu Xuan placed the corpse of the Thunder Serpent into a storage bag, adhering to his principle of not wasting a drop of blood or a piece of meat, and planned to feed those Underworld Spirit Plants.
“This Thunder Sea is not peaceful at all!”
As he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed two figures reflected in the gray pupil of his hand casting secretive glances towards his side.
“It seems they are coming towards me.”
A meaningful smile appeared on Lu Xuan’s face.
He had originally intended to avoid them directly, but upon recognizing their cultivation levels, he decided to take them down and add two more storage bags to his collection.
The two individuals were late-term and mid-term Foundation Establishment Cultivators respectively. They slowly disappeared using some formula method amidst numerous Thunders when they were less than a hundred feet away from Lu Xuan.
However, they never expected that whether it was being watched by the Void Nightmare Eye or being sensed by Lu Xuan’s prepared and powerful spiritual consciousness, they were completely exposed and could be clearly seen.
