191: Chapter 187 Lei Ying's Fury

After settling the five dou sheng puppets, Ling Yuan sat cross-legged on the spot.

He allowed the surrounding Black Demon Lightning to surge toward him on its own, Cultivating with the pure lightning power while waiting for Elder Zhu Huo to finish the battle.

Elder Zhu Huo was worthy of being a seasoned powerhouse at the Late Stage of the Seven-Star Dou Sheng, possessing rich combat experience and facing no pressure when dealing with the weakened Nine Profound Golden Lightning.

He did not make Ling Yuan wait too long before the sounds of battle in the depths completely subsided.

When Elder Zhu Huo emerged, his palm was tightly gripping a palm-sized golden dragon.

This was the stripped Origin of the Nine Profound Golden Lightning, the condensed main body of the lightning spirit. The little dragon had exquisite patterns on its body, and its entire form was wrapped in fine golden lightning.

Ling Yuan offered a compliment: "Elder Zhu Huo is truly a seasoned powerhouse at the Late Stage of the Seven-Star Dou Sheng; you subdued the Nine Profound Golden Lightning so quickly."

Hearing the praise, Elder Zhu Huo felt quite pleased and handed the small golden lightning in his palm to Ling Yuan.

As soon as Ling Yuan came into contact with the Nine Profound Golden Lightning, he felt the immense, overbearing, and extremely pure lightning power contained within it.

In comparison, the Black Demon Lightning raging around them was nothing but trash.

A flash of excitement crossed Ling Yuan's eyes; another important Opportunity was in his hands!

The small golden dragon was still somewhat restless, so he immediately mobilized his Soul Power and Dou Qi to place a double Seal on the Origin of the Nine Profound Golden Lightning.

This was to lock away the restless power of the golden lightning and to conceal the leaking lightning Aura, avoiding detection by other powerhouses.

For the moment, Ling Yuan did not intend to refine this Nine Profound Golden Lightning.

The Nine Profound Golden Lightning was an existence on the same level as the Purification Lotus Demon Flame; trying to force it to refine now would be seeking his own death.

Even though his defense was not weak, one would need to be at least a Three or Four-Star Dou Sheng to have a chance at refining it.

Ling Yuan calculated that it would be quite suitable to refine it inside the Heavenly Tomb.

Hmm, with the prerequisite that his strength was sufficient.

At this moment, Elder Zhu Huo also saw the five Puppets that were currently absorbing the lightning power.

"Little Friend Ling Yuan, are these dou sheng puppets all yours?"

These Puppets were not here before coming, so it could only be that Ling Yuan had placed them.

Elder Zhu Huo was extremely shocked.

He had lived through a long span of time and seen all kinds of Puppets, but he had never even heard of Puppets whose combat strength reached the Dou Sheng level.

Ling Yuan nodded and said casually: "I killed some powerful enemies before and was left with a few dou sheng bodies; it would be a waste to just leave them there, so I tinkered with them a bit and brought them out. It's not worth mentioning."

Ling Yuan was being quite humble-bragging.

"Little Friend, you are truly hiding your true capabilities!"

Elder Zhu Huo sighed emotionally, raising his evaluation of Ling Yuan once again, feeling more and more that Ling Yuan was a Genius.

Being able to refine Puppets at the Dou Sheng level was a great skill.

It meant that in the future, if there were any major wars, as long as the bodies and other Materials were gathered, Ling Yuan could refine them into Puppets, allowing him to sustain war through war!

"Elder Zhu Huo, you must keep this a secret for me..."

"Hahaha, rest assured, this old man is not so muddled as to expose your bottom line."

After settling the refining Puppets and putting away the sealed Origin of the Nine Profound Golden Lightning, Ling Yuan and Elder Zhu Huo set off together, leaving the core area of the Void Lightning Pool.

Outside the lightning pool, Ling Yuan and Elder Zhu Huo joined forces to Seal the entire Void Lightning Pool.

Ling Yuan intended to designate this Void Lightning Pool as his exclusive cultivation Secret Realm. Whether it was for refining Puppets or for future cultivation Breakthroughs, it was an excellent treasure land, and he did not want anyone to touch it.

Elder Lei Ren and Mang Qianchi were still trapped outside, so Ling Yuan grabbed them and headed back to the clan.

On the way back, in the Void Realm, Ling Yuan encountered an acquaintance.

Xiao Yan.

There were two figures, and the person leading them was Xiao Yan.

Beside Xiao Yan followed a middle-aged Dou Zun powerhouse with a steady Aura. The two slowed their speed, as if searching for something in the Void Realm.

Ling Yuan saw through Xiao Yan's Realm at a glance: Seven-Star Dou Zong.

A twenty-seven-year-old Seven-Star Dou Zong could only be described as average.

Ling Yuan was more curious about the identity of the Dou Zun beside Xiao Yan. Was it someone Xiao Yan was lucky enough to befriend? Or was it a bodyguard arranged for him by Gu Xun'er?

At the same time, Xiao Yan also recognized Ling Yuan at a glance. A look of pleasant surprise immediately appeared on his face, and he took the initiative to step forward and greet him with cupped hands.

"Big Brother Ling Yuan, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Ling Yuan's reaction was much more indifferent. He asked who the Dou Zun beside him was and what they were looking for.

Xiao Yan answered truthfully.

It turned out that the Dou Zun beside Xiao Yan was sent by Gu Xun'er to help him. Xiao Yan had learned the Three Thousand Lightning Movement and wanted to find a place rich in lightning to Cultivate, so he came here to look for one.

Ling Yuan felt that the development of this plot had gone slightly off track. Why would Xiao Yan come to the Beast Region to find lightning?

If he hadn't appeared, wouldn't this Xiao Yan have stumbled upon the Void Lightning Pool?

"There is indeed a large lightning pool nearby, but this place has been designated as the private territory of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan, and all outsiders are strictly forbidden from entering. Moreover, the lightning in this pool is extremely powerful; even a Dou Zun cannot withstand it."

"If you want to Cultivate the Three Thousand Lightning Movement, there is no need to risk coming here. Go to the Wind and Thunder Pavilion; the lightning there is sufficient for your Cultivation and is also safer."

Ling Yuan left only this sentence and departed; he did not intend to deepen his acquaintance with Xiao Yan.

The Void Lightning Pool had already been left with the Restrictions by him and Elder Zhu Huo; relying solely on Xiao Yan and the Dou Zun beside him, it was impossible for them to break in.

Xiao Yan thanked him: "Many thanks for the reminder, Big Brother Ling Yuan."

When Elder Zhu Huo brought Ling Yuan and the detained Elder Lei Ren and Mang Qianchi back to Dragon Island, preparing to pick up Ling Long and Ling Yao to return, he discovered that Zhu Kun was nowhere to be found.

Elder Zhu Huo said with a chuckle: "Hehe, the Old Dragon Emperor must have taken them out to play."

"Little Friend, there is no need to worry; you can return to the Spirit Realm first. When the Old Dragon Emperor returns from his travels, this old man will personally escort the two children back to the Spirit Realm."

Ling Yuan: "It's fine. They were getting bored staying in the Spirit Realm; it's good to let their grandfather-in-law take them out for a stroll."

With Zhu Kun personally looking after the two children, almost no one on the entire continent could hurt the sister and brother, so Ling Yuan was not worried.

After returning to the Spirit Realm, Ling Yuan had Zi Yan send a message to the Lei Clan in the name of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan.

"The Lei Clan Elders, Elder Lei Ren and Mang Qianchi, without the permission of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan, trespassed into the private Secret Realm of the Ancient Dragon Clan, the Void Lightning Pool, spying on important tribal grounds and coveting our clan's supreme treasure. Is the Lei Clan intending to start a war with this action?"

If he wanted to seize the initiative in subsequent negotiations and demand sufficient compensation, the first step was to suppress the Lei Clan's Aura, pin all the blame on the Lei Clan, and occupy the moral high ground.

Inside the Lei Clan's great hall.

Lei Ying received the message sent by the Void Ancient Dragon Clan. Upon seeing the content, his face instantly turned livid, and his anger surged to the top of his head.

He raised his hand and slammed it fiercely onto the solid wood armrest of his seat. With a crisp cracking sound, the hard material of the armrest shattered and split directly.

"They only sent people to investigate, yet they directly detained two of my high-level clan Elders. The Void Ancient Dragon Clan's way of doing things is simply too overbearing and unreasonable!"

The Lei Clan Elders hurriedly spoke up to dissuade him.

"Clan Chief, don't be impulsive."

If one were to really calculate it, this matter was indeed the Lei Clan's fault.

It was Lei Ying who held a lucky mentality, thinking that the Void Ancient Dragon Clan did not want the Void Lightning Pool anymore, and wanted to swallow that treasure land and the Nine Profound Golden Lightning.

Who would have thought that they would be caught red-handed.
