608: Even cultivators cannot escape the word "profit".

Cultivators in the Saint Domain, the stronger the experts, the more cautious they are, and they won't act impulsively and fight to the death with an opponent.

In the restaurant, Xiao Ruofeng and the others learned Yuan Fei's identity and immediately backed down.

And they backed down cleanly and decisively, without any hesitation!

This is about assessing the situation and knowing what choices to make at what time!

To knowingly go against Yuan Fei in public when they were clearly outmatched was not something these Prodigies would do.

Gu Qing furrowed his brow and said, "We need to investigate the identity and background of that guy surnamed Shen, and we also need to get our revenge today. Our strength alone is definitely not enough to deal with Yuan Fei, and there's also that woman beside him. If I'm not mistaken, she should be Shen Qingling, seventh on the Goddess List. Her strength is also very formidable, already at the Immortal Realm Ninth Layer!"

"Dealing with these two is the main priority. We've never seen that guy surnamed Shen before, he might just have a high status, but his strength isn't necessarily stronger than these two."

Gu Qing's analysis made the eyes of the other three light up.

That makes some sense!

They knew all the famous figures in the Saint Domain, but they had never even heard of this person surnamed Shen. He was considered an unknown in the Saint Domain.

It was very likely that he just had a high status, but his strength was not necessarily great.

This situation was very common in the Saint Domain; they knew of several people with deep backgrounds but low cultivation.

"So, Yuan Fei and Shen Qingling might be accompanying this Young Master. The Divine Treasury Demon Ridge has many Opportunities, so this kid is probably here to try his luck."

Xiao Ruofeng said thoughtfully.

The more they analyzed, the more they felt their guess was correct.

"Then what are we still hesitating for? Let's take down that guy surnamed Shen first. Even if we can't deal with Yuan Fei and Shen Qingling, if that guy surnamed Shen dies, and if he really has a formidable force behind him, it will be enough trouble for Yuan Fei and Shen Qingling to handle!"

Jiang Guchen said fiercely.

This was a plan to divert trouble and let them suffer the consequences.

"Alright, let's do that then!"

Gu Qing gave a cold smile and said, "Our Cultivators from Youzhou are not to be trifled with. The Divine Sons of the Three Sects of Youzhou will all appear this time. Inviting them should be enough to deal with Yuan Fei and Shen Qingling."

The Three Sects of Youzhou: Beixuan Sect, Dongji Gate, and Taiyi Cult!

These three sects are all top-tier forces in the Saint Domain, and their Divine Sons are all figures on the Divine Son rankings.

Although not as good as Yuan Fei, they wouldn't be too far behind.

After all, they were all Cultivators of the same Realm.

"Good!"

After discussing, the four left this street.

Storm City was vast, stretching as far as the eye could see. A massive protective shield enveloped the entire city, keeping it unshaken despite the raging storms.

In this great city, the Cultivators coming and going from various regions were countless!

The small incident Shen Tianxing encountered was not worth mentioning at all. Some people noticed it, but it was only a fleeting observation, and the news did not spread.

The experts who came to Storm City were now all waiting for the opening of the Divine Treasury Demon Ridge and would not pay too much attention to minor matters.

To avoid any unnecessary complications.

After drinking, the three of Shen Tianxing left the restaurant.

Given Yuan Fei and Shen Qingling's status, they naturally wouldn't lower themselves to stay in a restaurant.

In Storm City, they also had their own residences.

Thunder Cloud Mountain, shrouded in clouds, soared into the sky.

Looking up, amidst the dense clouds, lightning flashed, as if a thunderbolt was brewing.

The constantly flashing electricity was like silver snakes dancing, illuminating the night sky brightly.

Shen Tianxing was momentarily stunned by the peculiar sight.

Seeing this, Shen Qingling explained, "There's a Thunder Pool in Thunder Cloud Mountain, which nurtures a Thunder Beast. Rumor has it that it's a descendant of the previous generation's guardian Divine Beast of Storm City, the Thunder Beast, and has been nurtured for ten thousand years, nearing adulthood."

The Thunder Beast is an ancient Divine Beast remnant. An adult Thunder Beast possesses the strength of an Immortal Realm Peak!

Moreover, its scales are incredibly hard, difficult to damage with divine weapons, and it naturally possesses the power of lightning. Killing it is almost impossible.

Most interestingly, the Thunder Beast has an instinct: it loves to eat storms.

The endless storms outside Storm City are food in the eyes of the Thunder Beast. As long as it successfully matures, the external storms will be largely devoured by the Thunder Beast, and Storm City will not be troubled by them for a long time.

Of course, raising a Thunder Beast is not easy.

"The Thunder Beast of Storm City has reproduced for who knows how many generations. Even Divine Beast remnants have their destinies, and can be injured or die."

"Fortunately, the Thunder Pool can nurture Thunder Beast infants to grow, inheriting the abilities and memories of the previous generation of Thunder Beasts."

"For millions of years, the Thunder Beast has not died out, which has allowed Storm City to stand firm."

Yuan Fei added from the side.

After listening to their explanations, Shen Tianxing finally understood.

Of course, he also had some understanding of the Thunder Beast, but Yuan Fei and the others knew more details.

"Let's go. Once we reach the separate courtyard, we'll be able to see the true appearance of the Thunder Pool."

Yuan Fei said with a smile, then took the lead and flew towards a mountain range on the peak.

Manors could be vaguely seen dotted across the mountain range.

These manors on Thunder Cloud Mountain were actually not few, and they were not something ordinary people could own. The owner of each manor was a super-powerful force well-known in the Saint Domain!

After all, right next to it was the Thunder Pool, with its flashing lightning. Ordinary Materials could not be used to build manors here.

Each manor was built with extremely special Materials, capable of isolating lightning and remaining unaffected by the Thunder Pool. This meant that forces with insufficient financial resources could not afford such expensive construction costs.

"You really know how to enjoy yourselves. You can see the scenery of the Thunder Pool at a glance. If one mainly Cultivates Thunder Law, they can even Cultivate here. It can be considered a truly blessed place."

Shen Tianxing stood in a pavilion of the manor, looking out, and could see a huge lake.

In that lake, azure waves rippled, and lightning could be seen surging with the naked eye. Every stream of water seemed to be composed of electricity.

Faint waves of pressure emanated from within.

Shen Tianxing couldn't help but secretly praise such a miraculous place.

This Saint Domain truly lived up to its reputation as a Cultivator's paradise.

Yuan Fei said with a smile, "Brother Shen, you don't know, although we don't Cultivate Thunder Dao Cultivation Technique, the manors here can be lent out to those who need them, but the cost is very high!"

Shen Tianxing nodded.

Cultivators also cannot escape the word 'profit'.

This applies everywhere.

For Cultivators in need, the value of this place is very high. Just standing in this manor, one can absorb the lightning from the Thunder Pool to Cultivate and comprehend the Thunder Dao Law contained within.

Paying some necessary price is acceptable.

"We'll stay here for one night today. Tomorrow, we'll go out of the city for a walk. Recently, there's a large area outside Storm City where a relic is said to have been discovered, and there are Vicious Beasts circling, so there must be something strange. We might as well go and take a look."

Yuan Fei said.

Shen Tianxing nodded, did not refuse, and readily agreed.
