283: The origin of thunder, the opportunity to enter the eighth level!

“Do you not think it’s a bit late to be thinking of leaving now?”

Behind the short, stout man, a cold voice emerged.

The two men simultaneously turned their heads, only to see a headless monster appear in their line of sight. Their expressions immediately changed. The short, stout man cursed loudly, “Damn it! How did we run into him?”

They were Monkey King’s clones, and when they entered, they had seen this headless immortal body. Moreover, since this headless immortal body emerged from Kunlun Mountain, it had caused a huge commotion, slaughtering countless humans and fierce beasts, and its fearsome reputation was already well-known.

Therefore, Monkey King’s clone knew that his current self was no match for it.

Without thinking, the two men turned and ran, but the headless immortal body was even faster. In the blink of an eye, it rushed to their side.

A dangerous aura descended with a roar.

“Poof—”

The short, stout man didn’t even have time to retaliate before he was struck by the headless immortal body. His body plummeted rapidly, showing signs of collapsing!

But at this moment, he threw all his remaining strength towards the tall, thin man and roared, “Run! One of us must take the opportunity out!”

“Heh heh, do you think you can escape?”

The headless immortal body allowed the tall, thin man to flee.

Taking advantage of the short, stout man’s severe injuries, it immediately tried to devour him, but soon discovered that the opponent suddenly disappeared with a 'bang', and then a monkey hair floated down.

This made the headless immortal body pause, then it became furious, “Another clone!”

“Hmph!”

“When This Lord finds your true bodies, that will be the day you die!”

...Xia Fan, along with Black Dragon King and Magic Cat, successively explored several palaces. From the jade slips they found, they discovered some immortal techniques, but for him now, they were basically useless.

Therefore, he directly threw the jade slips to Black Dragon King and Magic Cat, and then said, “You two should study them carefully first. After we get out, you can give them to Ta Mu and the others.”

“In short, it never hurts to have more skills.”

“I understand, Tiger Brother.”

Magic Cat agreed without thinking. After all, she always listened to Xia Fan. Whatever he said, she would do. By now, she was much stronger than ordinary fierce beasts, but she still liked this way of doing things.

As they headed to the next palace, Magic Cat seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, “Tiger Brother, I suddenly remembered that one of the jade slips just now seemed to record the Source of Thunder Immortal Realm or something.”

“Do you think that might be the most precious opportunity here?”

Hearing this, Xia Fan paused.

He had Magic Cat find that jade slip, and after reading it carefully, he immediately praised her, “You’ve helped me a great deal again, but that’s not the Source of Thunder Immortal Realm, but the Source of Thunder. There’s a big difference between the two.”

“Let’s go to the center of this immortal realm. It is said that the Source of Thunder is hidden there.”

“Alright!”

Magic Cat was very happy, knowing that she had helped Xia Fan, so she chattered all the way.

As time passed, many fierce beasts and human powerhouses who entered the Thunder Immortal Realm had basically plundered all the opportunities in various places, and thus had no choice but to head towards the central area of the Thunder Immortal Realm.

After all, due to the precedent of the Rain Immortal Realm last time, the number of powerhouses entering the Thunder Immortal Realm this time was much larger, almost several times more. Under the extensive plundering of this group of powerhouses, if they wanted to continue obtaining opportunities, they could only constantly compress the search space, and eventually running into each other was inevitable.

When Xia Fan, Magic Cat, and Black Dragon King arrived at the most massive palace in the center of the Thunder Immortal Realm, other fierce beasts and human powerhouses had already arrived.

They all watched with covetous eyes, but because the palace had not yet opened, they could only wait outside.

Xia Fan scanned the area. A suspicious tall, thin man, the headless immortal body that came out of the Rain Immortal Realm, and the Descendant of the Earth Mother, and the Disciple of the True Lord, had all appeared.

There were also dozens of other unknown powerhouses at the fifth and sixth ranks, but none of them could be put in his eyes.

“Demonic Tiger, this time you absolutely won’t escape!”

Upon meeting, the Descendant of the Earth Mother showed a strong look of disgust towards Xia Fan, “The Thunder Immortal Realm has always tolerated no filth. An evil demon like you will surely be annihilated here!”

“Then what’s wrong with this guy?”

Seeing Xia Fan’s attention drawn to him, the headless immortal body immediately snorted coldly, “I am an Immortal Lord, and besides, it’s not like I haven’t been to the Rain Immortal Realm before, so I can naturally appear.”

“Are you saying that because you want to die?”

“Heh heh, if you want to fight, This Lord will accompany you to the end!”

Xia Fan retorted with sarcasm without hesitation. After all, he was now confident that he could contend with this headless immortal body, but who would win could only be known after a fight.

It’s just that everyone was waiting for the opportunity in the grand hall to appear, so no one wanted to cause trouble at this time.

After a few cold snorts, the headless immortal body ignored him.

Rumble—

Suddenly, bursts of thunder roared. The palace, under everyone’s gaze, slowly opened its gates, and then endless lightning surged out.

Some of the fierce beasts and human powerhouses who were closer almost didn’t react before they were engulfed by the lightning, directly turning into smoke and ash!

“Overestimating themselves!”

The Disciple of the True Lord sneered incessantly. Only after the surging lightning had greatly diminished did he charge forward, being the first to rush into the palace, “Everyone, it’s all up to your own abilities now.”

“Hmph!”

“Hmph…”

In an instant, all the powerhouses rushed into the palace, and Xia Fan was no exception.

After he rushed into the grand hall, he suddenly saw a ball of lightning flickering towards him. There seemed to be an exceptionally attractive aura within it, and he immediately raised his paw and reached out.

However, before he could clearly see what was wrapped within the lightning, a hand suddenly intervened, separating him from the lightning.

He turned his head and saw the headless immortal body not far away, also interested in this lightning. He immediately roared, “Do you think This Lord is a pushover?!”

“This Lord is not afraid of you!”

Rumble—

The two sides exchanged a blow in a hurry. Xia Fan even threw out several Heavenly Lightning bolts. This response, however, revealed the unusual aura within the lightning, and he and the headless immortal body exclaimed simultaneously, “Source of Thunder!?”

The reason Xia Fan came here was for the Source of Thunder. After all, to break through to the eighth rank above the seventh rank, one must comprehend and master the power of the source.

There are not many sources of power in the world, and Xia Fan had especially encountered the Source of Thunder, which was exceptionally compatible with the Divine Firmament Lightning Technique. Of course, he was determined to obtain it.

“I didn’t expect that this trip to the Thunder Immortal Realm would actually be my opportunity to break through to the eighth rank!”

At this moment, Xia Fan’s eyes gleamed, “In that case, I’ll have to fight this monster. No matter what, I will not give up the Source of Thunder!”
