282: Wherever he goes, no one dares to approach!

"Tiger Brother, this place... can we really live here?"

Magic Cat was initially very curious about the Thunder Immortal Realm, especially after seeing the thunder filling the sky. She even thought it was part of the decoration until she personally witnessed some fierce beasts being struck dead by the lightning. Only then did she take a deep breath, "If we're bombarded by this lightning every day, wouldn't we have to be on edge doing anything?"

"Hehe, since the Thunder Immortal Realm is arranged like this, the people inside must have a way to deal with it and won't be affected."

"Let's look around first. The palaces here are quite well-preserved, so there should be more opportunities remaining."

"Mm-hmm."

At Xia Fan's call, the Black Dragon King carried them, flying all the way directly towards the palace complex ahead.

In fact, Magic Cat's worries were not unfounded.

This Thunder Immortal Realm was shrouded in lightning all day long, and there was no place where this wasn't the case. Especially when looking up, one would find that the endless sky was filled with thunderclouds, and who knew how many bolts of lightning were brewing within them.

Xia Fan led Magic Cat to a palace. Only then did he discover that although it was also struck by lightning, the moment of contact, the lightning rippled across the palace's surface like waves, eventually dissolving into nothingness.

And perhaps it was the nourishment from this lightning that kept the palaces here mostly intact. Upon closer inspection, these simple yet grand palaces seemed to have the function of utilizing the lightning, thus creating an endless, cyclical process.

Soon, he arrived above a palace. After a moment of thought, he descended, "Let's go, let's go inside and take a look!"

...Just as Xia Fan and many other fierce beasts and human powerhouses began exploring the Thunder Immortal Realm, two figures appeared at the entrance to the Thunder Immortal Realm in the Qinling Mountains.

One of them was tall and thin, the other short and stout, but their eyes both held a cunning look.

At this moment, the short, stout person stood before the entrance, indignant, "That damned Tiger King!"

"Why is he everywhere? Is that guy too fond of joining in on the fun?"

"Alas, what can we do?"

The tall, thin person sighed, feeling helpless, "Don't forget, the Tiger King has a grudge against us. He starts a fight the moment he sees us, and we can't even beat him. It's truly infuriating!"

"What's with 'you guys' and 'us'? I am you and you are me, we are one!"

"Isn't this just to maintain a bit of mystery in front of others?"

The tall, thin person chuckled. Seeing that everyone who should enter the Thunder Immortal Realm had already gone in, and there was almost no one else around, he lifted his foot and walked towards the entrance, "Let's go. If we're any later, the opportunities inside will probably be divided among them, and then you and I will have come for nothing."

"It's better to finish this trip early, and then ask Yu Mian Fox what we should do next."

In fact, these two people were clones of the Monkey King.

The Monkey King's main body was in the Qinling Mountains. He had originally intended to personally enter the Thunder Immortal Realm to explore, but after seeing Xia Fan arrive, an infinite fear arose in his heart. He dared not come in his true form, nor dared to show his face before Xia Fan. Therefore, he only sent two clones into the Thunder Immortal Realm.

Moreover, these two clones were in a transformed state. If it weren't for someone extremely familiar with him, it would be impossible to recognize them!

"Damn Tiger King, can you just stay away?"

After entering the Thunder Immortal Realm, the short, stout person among them was still grumbling, wishing that Xia Fan would die there.

However, these two clones acted quite stealthily and were not noticed by anyone... "Get out!"

In the Thunder Immortal Realm, Xia Fan hadn't finished searching this palace when he saw two fierce beasts brazenly barge in.

The two fierce beasts were immediately scared stiff, frozen in place, not daring to move.

They had just randomly picked a palace close to them, who knew their luck would be so 'good' as to directly encounter Xia Fan? Thus, they didn't know what to do.

It wasn't until they heard Xia Fan's scolding that the two fierce beasts felt as if they had been granted a great pardon and hurriedly ran out.

Magic Cat immediately chuckled, "Tiger Brother, it seems you're still quite terrifying in their hearts."

"The King is still too kind."

Beside him, the Black Dragon King played the Monday morning quarterback, "If the King hadn't spoken, Little Black would have planned to deal with them both. After all, how could a fat piece of meat that's already in its mouth be allowed to fly away?"

"Have you found anything useful?"

Upon hearing this, the Black Dragon King immediately stepped forward with a smile, "King, this is a jade slip that I found in that room over there. I haven't looked at what's inside yet, as I needed to wait for the King to examine it first."

"Mm."

Xia Fan took the jade slip. After seeing its contents, he put it into the space within the eastern emperor bell. "Although it only records miscellaneous matters, it can still help us understand what happened in the Thunder Immortal Realm. I'll keep it for now."

"Little Black, keep searching."

"Yes!"

After the two fierce beasts left the palace where Xia Fan was, they immediately ran far away!

Seeing some fierce beasts still heading in that direction, they kindly stopped them, "Don't go there! The Tiger King is searching for opportunities over there. If you go now, you're just asking for death!"

"What?"

The fierce beast was immediately alarmed, and seeing that the two fierce beasts didn't seem to be lying, and were even leaving in the opposite direction, it believed them, "Why isn't the Tiger King searching for opportunities in the central palaces?"

"Who knows? Just don't provoke the Tiger King..."

And so, these three fierce beasts, while moving away from Xia Fan, spread news of his whereabouts.

Although no one knew if Xia Fan would still be in the same palace after some time, these fierce beasts were so terrified of Xia Fan that as soon as they heard the news, they would run as far as they could, not daring to approach.

Moreover, it wasn't just fierce beasts; even human powerhouses like the Descendant of the Earth Mother and the Disciple of the True Lord, after learning Xia Fan's general location, didn't go there either.

Although they weren't terrified of Xia Fan to the extreme, and their tacit agreement to search separately at this time was also to obtain more opportunities as quickly as possible, it invisibly caused any place Xia Fan went to be unapproachable by anyone!

This created a very strange situation—the area where Xia Fan was, and its vicinity, was quiet and almost devoid of people, while in other parts of the Thunder Immortal Realm, fierce beasts and human powerhouses fought to the death. Some were killed by other powerhouses before even seeing any opportunities, and never got a clear view of the entire Thunder Immortal Realm before they died.

"I found it!"

Somewhere in the Thunder Immortal Realm, the short, stout person among the Monkey King's clones, now holding a jade slip, came smilingly before the tall, thin person, "What's recorded inside is actually an immortal technique, and it's one I've never even heard of."

"It's perfect to take out and enhance my strength."

The tall, thin person was also overjoyed, but he suddenly sensed a certain aura and his expression changed drastically, "Quick, let's go! This place is not suitable for staying long!" (End of Chapter)
