208: Chapter 207 Mang Tianzhi

Finally, through Chen Yang's unremitting efforts, he successfully broke through to the Seventh Transformation of the Dragon.

At this moment, his cervical spine was like a dragon, emitting infinite radiance. That radiance was so powerful that it shone directly out of the Black Demon Lightning sea, illuminating the dark clouds above into gold.

Under the influence of Chen Yang's powerful aura, the entire sea of lightning became incomparably violent, as if it would explode at any moment.

Just as Chen Yang was cultivating hard in the Void Lightning Pool, a person arrived outside the cave.

It was an old man with white hair, his face covered in the traces of time, but his eyes were exceptionally sharp, as if he could see through everything.

The old man stroked his white beard, looked at the cave, and suddenly laughed: "Hahaha, this old man has finally found the Void Lightning Pool."

After saying this, the old man immediately flew into the cave.

However, as he flew along, he discovered that there was not a trace of lightning around, which made him feel very confused.

If it weren't for the sound of thunderous bombardment coming from deep within the cave, he would have suspected that he had gone to the wrong place.

"Could it be that a rare treasure has appeared?" The old man was startled and exclaimed in surprise.

Indeed, in front of the old man, one could see infinite golden light revealing itself within the black sea of clouds; that light was as dazzling as the sun, illuminating the black clouds above.

The violent sea of clouds continuously bombarded the place where the golden light shone, as if wanting to completely destroy the source of that light.

Seeing such strange golden light, the old man's heart stirred, and he immediately accelerated to fly closer, wanting to seize the treasure emitting the golden light.

But looking at such violent Black Demon Lightning, he was still a bit afraid in his heart.

After all, such a massive thundercloud, and so violent, a slight carelessness could cause him to be seriously injured.

"Wait, I can take a look first to see what it actually is before considering whether to rush in and seize it." The old man thought to himself. Thinking of this, his eyes lit up. Instantly, powerful Dou Qi surged within his body, and he attempted to tear through the lightning sea to investigate.

With the old man's efforts, he finally saw clearly what exactly was emitting the golden light.

"A person, it's actually a person?" The old man widened his eyes, his face full of shock, unable to believe his own eyes.

A person was actually cultivating in the endless sea of Black Demon Lightning; just how strong was this person's cultivation?

This scene completely shocked the old man.

Suddenly, a majestic aura emanated from the lightning sea; that aura was like an invisible storm, blowing away even the black clouds above in an instant.

Chen Yang slowly rose from the lightning sea, his whole body emitting brilliant golden light. A huge golden dragon shadow roared continuously beside him, then slowly merged into his spine.

"Half-step Great Power! Breakthrough complete!" Chen Yang roared in his heart; he had successfully broken through this critical realm.

Watching such a shocking scene, the old man, while fully blocking the impact of Chen Yang's powerful aura, stared at Chen Yang without blinking, an expression of extreme astonishment on his face.

He really hadn't expected to see such a powerful expert in this kind of place, and he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart: "This world is truly full of wonders!"

However, as Chen Yang erupted with an even more powerful aura, the old man could no longer resist and was instantly blown away by this aura.

Chen Yang slowly opened his eyes, and the golden light emitting from his body gradually converged. His gaze was like a torch, and he immediately noticed the old man not far away who was struggling to block the impact of his powerful aura.

Chen Yang's eyes instantly narrowed, and a name quickly flashed through his mind — Mang Tianchi!

The person before him was the founder of Jia Nan Academy, and also the first Dean of Jia Nan Academy. In the memories of the original work, Xiao Yan had also met Mang Tianchi in this place, and at this moment, Mang Tianchi's cultivation had already reached the Half-Saint level.

Chen Yang looked at Mang Tianchi, a trace of thought flashing in his eyes, and then slowly withdrew his majestic aura.

With the dissipation of this powerful aura, Mang Tianchi immediately felt relieved and let out a long sigh.

He secretly felt fortunate in his heart; he had just offended such an expert, and if they had really fought, he would certainly have had no chance of winning.

"Are you, by any chance, the Dean of Jia Nan Academy, Mang Tianchi?" Chen Yang broke the brief silence, his voice deep and magnetic, echoing in this empty space.

Hearing that Chen Yang had accurately called out his name, Mang Tianchi was stunned for a moment, an expression of disbelief appearing on his face.

He never expected that such a powerful expert would actually know him.

After a brief astonishment, he hurriedly straightened his clothes and respectfully replied: "That is correct, this one is indeed Mang Tianchi. May I ask who you are?"

"Haha, that's good enough." Chen Yang's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. "I am a good friend of Elder Su Qian from Jia Nan Academy, and my wife is also a student of Jia Nan Academy. By that calculation, since I married her, I can barely be considered your half-student."

Chen Yang's words carried a touch of teasing, his tone relaxed, attempting to ease the slightly tense atmosphere.

Mang Tianchi nodded slightly, the look of vigilance in his eyes gradually fading, replaced by a trace of curiosity.

He looked Chen Yang up and down, secretly speculating about this expert's identity and background.

Being able to be on good terms with Elder Su Qian, and having such terrifying strength, this person must not be simple. Thinking of this, a friendly smile appeared on Mang Tianchi's face, and he said: "So that's how it is. Since that's the case, it is fate. I didn't expect that you would actually know that kid Su Qian."

Mang Tianchi paused slightly, his brows furrowed, falling into a brief moment of thought. Then he raised his head, staring closely at Chen Yang, and asked with a trace of curiosity and respect: "By the way, may I ask your honorable name?"

"Chen Yang." Chen Yang's expression was calm, his tone faint. These two simple words, however, revealed a sense of composure and confidence.

"Chen Yang?" Hearing this, Mang Tianchi instantly widened his eyes, his face full of shock, and his body even trembled slightly.

He never expected that the terrifyingly strong expert before him could actually be the Chen Yang who shone brilliantly at the Pill Gathering and refined a Ninth Grade Pill.

But there were still doubts in his heart, and he urgently needed confirmation, so he asked eagerly: "Could it be that you are the Chen Yang who won the championship at the Pill Gathering and shook the Central Plains with your name?" As he spoke, his eyes revealed anticipation and nervousness, as if waiting for an answer that would change his perception.

Chen Yang's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and he nodded gently, confirming Mang Tianchi's guess.

This simple action caused the last trace of doubt in Mang Tianchi's heart to vanish like smoke.

"Hiss—" Mang Tianchi gasped, his eyes full of amazement and admiration. "I didn't expect that not only are you supremely talented in the way of alchemy, but your cultivation has also already reached the Dou Sheng realm. It is truly a great honor for a student of our Jia Nan Academy to be able to become your wife."

Mang Tianchi said with emotion, a hearty smile blooming on his face, and his admiration for Chen Yang increased by a few more points in his heart.
