615: Chapter 613 After Waking Up

Chu Xuan woke up abruptly.

Just like the last time he woke from a dream, his entire body was ablaze with the raging Fire of Nirvana, and he looked at his reflection on the wall of the detention room with a strange expression.

Chu Xuan had long anticipated this; with a thought, he retracted the Fire of Nirvana.

He hurriedly checked the time.

10:01 AM.

"Just like last time, the waking time is 31 minutes later than normal..."

Immediately after, Chu Xuan lifted his clothing, his gaze tightening slightly.

Aside from his left chest and left arm, more than half of his right chest was now covered in spreading pitch-black markings.

Chu Xuan clearly remembered that the last time he woke from a dream, there were only a few markings on his right chest.

"It seems that every time a dream ends, these markings on my body increase. Could this be a manifestation of the consciousness inside me encroaching upon me?

Perhaps when these markings spread across my entire body, irreversible consequences will occur, and the longer the delay in waking from each dream, the faster these markings spread..." Chu Xuan's thoughts churned.

At this moment, the Phantom Demon's voice sounded in his ear:

"My great Dominator, you've finally woken up. You scared me to death just now. I felt like I was going to be devoured at any moment. It's a good thing you've returned..."

Chu Xuan's eyes flashed.

"The Phantom Demon is still here and wasn't directly wiped out. This means that although the consciousness inside me can cause trouble while I'm dreaming, it has certain limitations and cannot act recklessly..."

Numerous thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

Chu Xuan immediately put his phone into his storage space, then shouted outward: "Gaga Chicken, come out and Undergo Tribulation with me..."

While speaking, Chu Xuan had already teleported away from there, heading straight for the lake behind the residential area.

Above the horizon, dark clouds were already gathering.

However, the Lightning Tribulation after waking from the dream did not descend immediately like it did when entering the dream; instead, it brewed in the thunderclouds for a few seconds before striking down.

Gaga Chicken was extremely excited, following closely by Chu Xuan's side.

Boom!

Deep purple lightning descended, forming a spectacular sight above the lake surface.

With Gaga Chicken's participation, this Lightning Tribulation was not only doubled, but the power of every bolt that fell was even fiercer than in the dream.

This was precisely Chu Xuan's goal.

For the current Chu Xuan, a moderate Lightning Tribulation was no longer a threat.

As long as it was within his tolerance, not only could it improve the progress of [Thunderous Might], but it could also allow Gaga Chicken to receive corresponding enhancements—it was simply the best of both worlds.

The Lightning Tribulation in the dream had only caused Chu Xuan to lose about 35% of his health points, which was completely within his tolerance.

And now, Chu Xuan's stamina attribute had received a significant boost, so these Lightning Tribulations were even less of a threat.

More than ten minutes later, a total of twenty-four Lightning Tribulations ended.

Chu Xuan did not use Gaga Chicken as a shield to carry the lightning; instead, they received the lightning baptism together, ultimately losing only 30% of his health points.

At the same time, a System prompt appeared.

[Your Divine Ability "Thunderous Might" has been significantly enhanced. Current progress: Minor Achievement (85%). With 15% progress remaining, you can enter Major Achievement.]

"This Divine Ability is about to reach Major Achievement..." Chu Xuan curled his lips: "According to previous calculations, I should be able to obtain another 10 points of real attribute exchange quota."

Only then did Chu Xuan have time to carefully ponder everything he had seen before the dream ended.

"It's a bit strange. This dream should have had a few more minutes left, but it ended early..." Chu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Could it be because Xiao Luowei has already left the Cangyun World?"

"Xiao Luowei must have already reached the Martial God Realm, and the Cangyun World could no longer support her, so she finally shattered the Void Realm and left. And that blood sword she left behind in the end..."

Chu Xuan's eyes flashed: "It should be just as I anticipated; that Blood Killing Sword must have great use!"

"Cangyun World, Tianxing Sea Area... Blood Killing Sword!" Chu Xuan was lost in thought, then immediately thought of the land that had descended from the sky at the end.

"Everything matches up... Those alien races, Dwarves, Orcs, Elves, they must be the ancestors of the alien races I encountered in reality.

"Those alien races must have come from a new world. The reason they were able to descend upon the Tianxing Sea Area might have some connection to Xiao Luowei shattering the Void Realm.

"And Xiao Luowei finally disappeared along that crack—did she go to that world? If so, in the past history of the Cangyun World, Xiao Luowei probably walked the same path..."

Chu Xuan murmured softly: "Perhaps, we might really be able to meet in reality."

"Awesome! So awesome!" Gaga Chicken's excited, strange squawk pulled Chu Xuan's thoughts back. He saw it spreading its wings and soaring, constantly turning into flickering electric arcs in the sky, its speed astonishingly fast.

Unlike Chu Xuan, during this Lightning Tribulation, Gaga Chicken had endured the most, yet it hadn't suffered the slightest damage; instead, its spirit was even more vigorous, clearly having obtained a great improvement.

The cooldown time of this [Thousand-Movement Thunder Flash] seemed to be only 1 second.

Not only that, the colors of Gaga Chicken's wings were becoming increasingly vibrant, and its size had also significantly increased compared to before.

Chu Xuan checked Gaga Chicken's relevant attributes.

[Name: Gaga Chicken · Sky-Shattering · Thunder Roc, Species: Thunder Roc, Rank: 13, health points: 5000 / 5000, stamina: 30 (real attribute), Strength: 35 (real attribute), agility: 55 (real attribute), spirit: 40 (real attribute)...]

Chu Xuan said in surprise: "Your improvement speed is this fast?"

Gaga Chicken paused in front of Chu Xuan, head held high, and laughed with a face full of arrogance: "Envious, right? This Emperor is a noble Sky-Shattering Thunder Roc. Even if I do nothing, I can improve rapidly. If there's another lightning baptism, then it'll be even more incredible."

Chu Xuan's eyes showed a strange look. He glanced at [Thunderous Might], which was currently at 85% progress and about to advance to Major Achievement, and pondered for two seconds: "Give me two shots and let me try."

"Gaga, so you also have this hobby. Lord Peng will satisfy you!" Gaga Chicken let out a strange laugh, spread its wings, and amidst the roaring thunder, a pillar of lightning came roaring over.

Chu Xuan did not dodge, but chose to take it head-on.

[You received lightning damage, your health points - 120]

"The Divine Ability progress didn't increase..." Chu Xuan frowned slightly.

"Two more shots!" Gaga Chicken laughed loudly, and another bolt of lightning struck over.

Chu Xuan's eyelids twitched, and he immediately teleported away.
