Chapter 314: Falling Thunder Mountain Range

The reason Xiao Ming wanted to go to the Falling Thunder Mountain Range was to allow the Sky Demon Puppet to evolve.

He had initially thought of going to the Wind Lightning Mountain Range, but then he remembered something - even though the Wind Lightning Mountain Range was covered by dark clouds all year round, it was still inferior to the Falling Thunder Mountain Range in terms of lightning power.

...

The Falling Thunder Mountain Range was located in the southwestern part of the Central Region. The terrain there was quite unique, perhaps because of its high altitude or other reasons, as thunder constantly shrouded the area.

Outside the Falling Thunder Mountain Range, two streaks of light flashed across the sky like shooting stars and soon turned into two figures landing on a mountain peak. They lowered their heads and looked at the ant-like crowd below.

The figures who arrived were Xiao Ming and Venerable Tian Huo.

Chi Chi!

As soon as they landed, small electric arcs appeared at their feet.

"The lightning attribute here is so rich..." Yao Tian Huo looked at the grayish-white mountain range, almost devoid of vegetation, then looked down at the electric arcs under his feet, somewhat surprised.

"The Falling Thunder Mountain Range often attracts lightning strikes. The power of these lightning strikes is not to be underestimated. If it weren't for the annual period of thunderstorms here, the headquarters of the Wind Lightning Pavilion might have been built here instead of the Wind Lightning Mountain Range."

Xiao Ming smiled and said. In fact, there were other reasons why the Wind Lightning Pavilion did not establish its headquarters here. For example, this is the territory of Sound Valley, and it was difficult for them to intervene and so on.

Yao Tian Huo nodded at his words, then his eyes suddenly looked down at the crowd and then thoughtfully towards the center of the mountain range.

"It doesn't seem as lifeless as it appears on the surface."

"Senior Yao, you have sharp eyes." Xiao Ming knew a lot about the Falling Thunder Mountain Range, as it had been mentioned in the simulator before.

"The Falling Thunder Mountain Range is very suitable for people who cultivate Dou Qi with a lightning attribute, so every year when it's not the thunderstorm season, there are endless streams of people coming to this place in the Central Plains. In addition, there is a special lightning beast in the central area, which produces a kind of lightning pill that is extremely valuable. Many mercenaries make a living by hunting them."

Rumble!

Just as Xiao Ming finished speaking, thunder rumbled and lightning descended towards the peak where they were standing.

Facing the sudden lightning attack, Xiao Ming was not surprised but delighted. With a wave of his hand, the Sky Demon Puppet appeared beside him and leaped towards the lightning, intercepting them all.

Bathed in the lightning, the Sky Demon Puppet caused Yao Tian Huo to lower the hand that he had just raised.

Looking at Xiao Ming with a faint smile beside him, Yao Tian Huo asked, "Is the only purpose of coming here just to let the Sky Demon Puppet absorb the power of lightning?"

"Sort of," Xiao Ming sighed.

In fact, a wonder of heaven and earth with the lightning attribute would appear in the Falling Thunder Mountain Range a few years later. Xiao Ming came here not only to help the Sky Demon Puppet evolve by using the power of lightning but also to search for this wonder of heaven and earth.

However, the hope of finding it was somewhat slim, as Xiao Ming only knew that it was in the central area of the Falling Thunder Mountain Range, but didn't know the specific location.

The Falling Thunder Mountain Range stretches for thousands of miles, with a central area of over a hundred miles. The concentration of lightning energy makes it difficult for spiritual energy detection, making it even more challenging to find the heavenly treasure.

As for the matter of the heavenly treasure, Xiao Ming had not yet discussed it with Yao Tian Huo.

During their conversation, the lightning sent down towards the mountain peaks was absorbed by the Sky Demon Puppet.

With a thought, Xiao Ming's pale-golden demon puppet flashed and returned to his side.

After examining its strength, Xiao Ming realized that the increase in strength of the Sky Demon Puppet was limited, so he said, "We are on the outskirts of the Falling Thunder Mountain Range. Let's head towards the central area, where the lightning is even more dense and powerful."

Naturally, Yao Tian Huo did not object, he was here only as a bodyguard.

Xiao Ming kept the Sky Demon Puppet by his side as the three of them soared towards the mountain range's center.

Lightning occasionally fell from the sky in the Falling Thunder Mountain Range, and with Xiao Ming's speed, it took nearly half an hour to reach the center of the mountain range, where majestic and steep peaks stood tall. These peaks were extremely high, and at a glance, there was no end in sight. Above their respective mountain slopes, they were shrouded in thick clouds and mist. Some of these clouds were extremely dense, pitch-black as ink, and there were even faint flashes of lightning within them. From afar, this mountain peak looked like it was covered in countless lightning flashes, incredibly spectacular and towering.

Upon reaching the central area of the mountain range, Xiao Ming randomly selected a relatively high mountain peak and landed on a platform halfway up the slope with Yao Tian Huo.

They did not land at the peak because the mid-slope area would attract enough lightning. If they were at the peak, facing the violent lightning that would be attracted, Xiao Ming would not be able to persist for long.

On the platform, Xiao Ming first let the Sky Demon Puppet fly into the dark clouds to undergo the lightning baptism, and then took out the body of Yan Luo Tian to refine a new puppet on the spot.

Two days later, the puppet was successfully refined, and Xiao Ming immediately started to refine seventh-tier pills.

Yes, Xiao Ming's way of attracting lightning was through refining pills. By creating Pill Lightnings, the thunderclouds nearby would gather, and there would be enough density of lightning for the two puppets to absorb.

"I wonder what level the two puppets will evolve to this time," Xiao Ming muttered while refining the pills.

Meanwhile, Venerable Tian Huo guarded beside him. With his presence, Xiao Ming's pill refining proceeded smoothly, and even if lightning struck him, it would be deflected by Venerable Tian Huo.

...

During the process of refining pills, Xiao Ming had become a must-kill target for some people in the Hall of Souls.

In a huge black palace, which was so big that it gave people an extremely oppressive feeling, there were many black stone pillars that were tens of meters high. The stone pillars were covered with numerous eerie runes, faintly flashing with some faint light, flickering like countless eyes, gloomy and chilling.

On these black stone pillars, there were many chains wrapped around them, connecting countless shimmering light clusters. Looking closely, inside those light clusters were souls with closed eyes!

The black chains wrapped around the necks of those souls, and faintly, it seemed that something was emanating from the souls' bodies and transmitting through the chains.

Suddenly, there was a wave of fluctuations in the space, and five figures appeared on top of the five pillars.

"Zhai Xing Tianzun, why have you come to find us?" asked a figure in a black robe.

The leader, an old man in gray-white clothes, waved his hand and shot out four pieces of paper.

The remaining four people took them and saw that they were portraits of a very handsome man with two big characters next to them - Xiao Ming.

"The information on his whereabouts is on the back, and there is a mission to bring him back to the Hall of Souls. If necessary, don't hesitate to use lethal force."
