271: Nine Mysterious Golden Thunders gather spirits!

"Boom!"

As Gu Fei delved deeper into the heart of the lightning pool, the violent Black Demon Lightning bolts, as if finding their target, surged towards him.

"Black Demon Lightning?"

"Right now, you can't threaten me!"

Gu Fei glanced at the vast number of Black Demon Lightning bolts.

He didn't pay them much mind.

"Whoosh..."

The next moment, one Black Demon Lightning bolt after another struck Gu Fei's body.

However, these Black Demon Lightning bolts, which were enough to threaten low-tier Dou Sheng powerhouses, rapidly dissipated the instant they touched Gu Fei's body, as if they had met their nemesis.

Gu Fei was enveloped in a faint pink flame, which was the power of the Purification Lotus Demon Flame.

Under the protection of this layer of flame, the Black Demon Lightning was completely unable to harm Gu Fei in the slightest.

Not only that, when some Black Demon Lightning touched the layer of Purification Lotus Demon Flame, it was instantly purified, directly transforming into a pure energy that merged into Gu Fei's body.

"As expected of the Purification Lotus Demon Flame, ranked third on the strange fire ranking list; it can even purify this Black Demon Lightning."

Seeing this, Gu Fei smiled and praised Xiao Ying.

However, as Gu Fei continued to go deeper, the number of Black Demon Lightning bolts around him suddenly surged.

Dense black lightning dyed the entire sky an inky black, seemingly endless as it rushed towards Gu Fei.

Even with the miraculous power of the Purification Lotus Demon Flame, it gradually began to struggle.

The sheer number of Black Demon Lightning bolts was too immense.

Boom!

One massive Black Demon Lightning bolt after another, thick as a Dragon, fiercely struck Gu Fei's body, emitting deafening explosions.

That terrifying lightning power would be difficult for even ordinary Dou Sheng powerhouses to withstand.

But Gu Fei, with his high cultivation and powerful Physical Body, seemed unfazed, standing as steady as a mountain in the Void Realm.

"It seems that without the devouring power of the Void Swallowing Flame, it's still difficult to absorb lightning!"

A hint of regret appeared on Gu Fei's face.

If he could obtain the devouring power of the Void Swallowing Flame among his Fused strange fires...

Then his speed of becoming stronger would undoubtedly be much faster than it was now.

Alas.

Never mind, never mind.

Everything is a Heaven and Earth Opportunity; just let it be!

Gu Fei pouted.

However, even so, these Black Demon Lightning bolts were a great tonic for Gu Fei.

Although he couldn't completely absorb them, this level of lightning Body Tempering was undoubtedly a great workout for his Physical Body.

Gu Fei continued forward, and the surrounding Black Demon Lightning grew even more violent. The thick lightning bolts, like towering mountains, raged in the sky, dyeing the entire Heaven and Earth black.

However, at this moment, Gu Fei suddenly sensed a unique pressure.

It was a peculiar pressure, different from the Black Demon Lightning, as if it came from a more ancient and mysterious power. Gu Fei's heart stirred, and he flew in the direction from which the pressure originated.

As he got closer to the dark area, the peculiar pressure grew more intense. Eventually, even Gu Fei's steps involuntarily paused.

A hint of shock flashed in his ink-black pupils.

He saw a colossal Dragon, entirely golden as if cast from pure gold, coiling within the center of the lightning sea.

The Dragon's body was several thousand feet long, exuding a heart-pounding pressure.

What was most astonishing was...

Countless golden lightning bolts continuously shot out from its body, dyeing the entire sky golden.

"It really is the Nine Profound Golden Lightning," Gu Fei murmured to himself, a hint of awe flashing in his eyes.

One must know...

The Nine Profound Golden Lightning, this was an existence comparable to the top-tier strange fires on the strange fire ranking list.

If there were a ranking for lightning similar to the strange fire ranking list...

Then this lightning would be equivalent to the status of the Purification Lotus Demon Flame or even the Void Swallowing Flame on the strange fire ranking list.

Legend has it that only when a ninth-grade Golden Core is refined will this Nine Profound Golden Lightning appear in the world.

Each time this lightning appeared, it was earth-shattering, causing Heaven and Earth to tremble.

Even Dou Sheng powerhouses seemed insignificant under its lightning might.

And in the current Fighting Qi Continent...

There had been no news of the Nine Profound Golden Lightning appearing for several millennia.

This also meant that...

In these several millennia, a ninth-grade Golden Core had never appeared on the Fighting Qi Continent!

That kind of almost divine Medicinal Pill, in the current Fighting Qi Continent, probably no one could refine it.

Gu Fei took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart. He did not rashly approach the golden lightning Dragon, but instead found a safe spot in the distance and sat down cross-legged.

"Since I've encountered the Nine Profound Golden Lightning, I might as well wait here for a while."

"If I'm lucky, I might even witness the scene of the Nine Profound Golden Lightning gathering its Spiritual Qi."

Gu Fei thought to himself.

Time passed bit by bit, and Gu Fei just sat quietly in the Void Realm, silently waiting.

The surrounding Black Demon Lightning seemed to be deterred by the golden lightning Dragon, not daring to approach this area, creating a rare place of tranquility here.

Half a month passed in a flash!

Just as Gu Fei thought this trip might be in vain, a sudden change occurred!

In the depths of the lightning sea, the massive body of the golden lightning Dragon suddenly erupted with huge lightning arcs.

These lightning arcs contained the mournful roars of a Dragon, echoing through this Heaven and Earth with earth-shattering force.

The surrounding Black Demon Lightning was also startled and retreated far away, as if encountering a natural enemy.

"The gathering of Spiritual Qi is about to begin!"

Gu Fei's eyes flashed with excitement, and he stood up.

This kind of phenomenon is not something one can simply see.

To witness it once, it's probably an Opportunity accumulated over several lifetimes!

In his line of sight...

The lightning around the golden lightning Dragon became increasingly violent, and countless golden electric arcs intertwined in the Void Realm, forming a massive lightning Domain. In the center of that Domain, a golden sphere of light was slowly forming.

The sphere of light grew larger and brighter, as if it wanted to dye the entire Heaven and Earth golden.

As the sphere of light condensed, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi also began to converge here frantically.

Gu Fei held his breath and focused, observing this scene with full attention.

As time went on, the golden sphere of light became more and more solid.

During this time, the golden lightning Dragon continuously let out earth-shattering roars, as if undergoing some kind of transformation.

At a certain moment, the golden lightning Dragon temporarily stopped roaring.

Gu Fei opened his eyes, his gaze fixed intently on the golden lightning Dragon.

He could feel that the Nine Profound Golden Lightning had undergone some qualitative change at this moment.

The golden lightning Dragon slowly raised its head, and two eyes, as brilliant as stars, suddenly opened.

A hint of sentience flickered in those eyes.

"Roar!"

The golden lightning Dragon let out a long roar towards the sky, its voice seemingly filled with the joy of life.

"Could it be that the Nine Profound Golden Lightning is truly going to successfully transform into a spirit and gain sentience?" Gu Fei murmured in his heart.

In the original work, this level of biological spiritualization generally does not succeed.

"Roar!"

Indeed, after Gu Fei's thoughts faded, a hint of pain was heard in the roar of the Nine Profound Golden Lightning.
