Chapter 482 It Must Be a Test for Us

Along with the Thunder Palace, there were seven other palaces that came into being.

Under the guidance of Yan Xian, Xiao Yun came to Yan Palace.

[Xiao Yun, this Yan Palace has accumulated the purest Eight Desolate Fire Spiritual Energy for hundreds of thousands of years. You must plunder and absorb as much as possible to temper your body.]

[But remember, you must collect as many desolate bones as possible, as that is the key to obtaining the inheritance of the Eight Desolate Emperors! ]

"I don't need you to command me."

Xiao Yun fell like a meteor, and the umbrella-shaped impact turned into an air wave that blew up the magma. The Taoist monks who came to Yan Palace saw Xiao Yun appear, and they couldn't help but wailing in their hearts, but they could only bite the bullet and move forward.

Li Lin came to the rainforest area that seemed to be the most vibrant in the Eight Wildernesses.

As soon as he landed, Li Lin felt a strong sense of disobedience, as if he was being watched by countless pairs of eyes.

Soon Li Lin realized that this was not his illusion, but the vitality here was too strong and all the animals and plants had turned into monsters.

The banana leaves opened silently, like a big mouth falling towards Li Lin.

A cold light flashed in Li Lin's eyes, and as soon as he opened his fingers, countless phantom fires lit up. The banana leaves were engulfed by the flames in an instant, and a sharp scream that made people's scalps numb was emitted.

The blue flames faded away, and a ghostly figure appeared.

"Huangquan Mansion?" Li Lin raised his eyebrows and revealed the other party's origins.

The Huangquan Mansion disciple was stunned at first, then laughed meaningfully, "As expected of the son of the Marquis of Bahuang, you don't seem surprised at all?"

"You're kidding. If it weren't for the help from the sects behind you, how could I have had so many opportunities?" Li Lin licked his lips. "So, are you all... here to grind the donkey first?"

"Brother Li, look at what you said. If you didn't intend to repay kindness with enmity, we wouldn't want to lose a friend like you." The disciple of Huangquan Mansion shook his head helplessly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and his momentum rose steadily. "Brother Li, do you have any last words?"

Facing the threats from Huangquan Mansion disciples, Li Lin just sneered, "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Why beat around the bush? If you don't work for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth."

"A man who does not work for himself will be punished by heaven and earth."

The aura of the Huangquan Mansion disciples suddenly dissipated and they all smiled happily.

"In other words, Brother Li, you can rebel against Emperor Yu for your own sake?"

Li Lin narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not say anything. The Huangquan Mansion disciple smiled and said, "Brother Li, I believe you already know that the Military Sect has taken over the Confucian Sect. Emperor Yu is planning to fight a desperate battle, but before that, he will definitely eliminate the hidden dangers within."

"Brother Li, do you think your Li family can reassure Emperor Yu?"

Li Lin's expression gradually darkened. "What do you want to say?"

"I wonder if Brother Li is confident that he can convince Marquis Bahuang to cooperate with us?" The disciple of Huangquan Mansion explained his purpose. "Of course, we are not asking you to start a rebellion. We just need you to take action when necessary. As for when that time is, you will realize it naturally. You don't need us to remind you at all."

"...I can consider it," Li Lin's eyes flashed, "but what if I agree? Emperor Yu's strength is well known to everyone, and now he is trying to reach an unprecedented level. No one can match him."

"Brother Li, can't you see that Emperor Yu is planning to make a single throw, and what good will this single throw have?" The Huangquan Mansion disciple shook his head, "Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Yu is doing this to deal with Tianxu Tower and Xutian Dao Sect. Do you think these two parties will watch Emperor Yu attack an unprecedented realm?"

"……so?"

"As a token of our sincerity, we can help Brother Li fight for the inheritance of the Eight Desolate Emperor." Seeing Li Lin's expression relax, the Huangquan Mansion disciple thought that Li Lin was moved, so he continued, "But the conflict between you and Xiao Yun has nothing to do with us."

"Hmph - I don't need your help either."

Li Lin swung his sleeves and ran straight to the ancient temple covered with vines and moss not far away.

In the Thunder Palace, Li Yanmo and Hong Menglian followed at the end of the team and moved forward.

Monk Dayu was like a locust. Wherever he passed, not even a brick was left behind. No matter whether it was useful or not, he would take away anything he saw.

Soon they arrived at the second level of the Thunder Palace. When Canglong's voice sounded, the Dayu monks were all filled with question marks.

"What about the first level? Doesn't it say that the body needs to be tempered by thunder?"

"That's right, it can't be that what happened just now was the body tempering by the thunder tribulation."

"Wait... Was that a test of our courage? Let's see if we have the courage to move forward in the face of the lightning tribulation that will temper our bodies!"

“That makes sense!”

Amid the mutterings of the Dayu monks, Canglong's voice paused for a while and then continued as if it was just a simple replay, "The second level requires you to master the method of controlling thunder and pass through the thundercloud area. The first three will receive the true teachings of the Thunder Immortal."

Upon hearing the true teachings of the Thunder Immortal, the Dayu cultivator present immediately forgot about the issue of tempering the body through thunder tribulation.

Suddenly, a blinding bolt of lightning descended from the sky, and an ancient shadow slowly emerged.

The shadow was as tall as a mountain, wearing a robe with thunder patterns, and the robe was embroidered with ancient runes, each rune flashing with dazzling lightning. His face was blurry, but it revealed a sense of majesty and vicissitudes, as if he had experienced the baptism of countless years. He slowly raised his hands, palms facing up, as if he was holding up the power of thunder between heaven and earth.

As he moved, the lightning around him began to gather and transformed into electric snakes that moved around him. With a flick of his finger, the electric snakes danced in the air as he directed them, sometimes circling like a dragon, sometimes piercing the sky like a sword. His movements seemed slow, but they contained infinite power. Every move seemed to resonate with the heaven and earth, inducing the power of thunder.

The phantom just took a step, and the tall figure turned into countless arcs and dissipated, flashing back and forth in the dark clouds and heading straight to the end.

As the lightning faded away, dark clouds filled with murderous intent surged.

Li Yanmo pinched his chin and nodded thoughtfully.

This level seems to require the user to comprehend and learn the Thunder Immortal's method of controlling thunder, and then race in this dangerous dark cloud area.

A very common level, but...

Li Yanmo's expression gradually became strange.

A Dayu monk couldn't hold back and muttered aloud.

"This lightning control method is so... retro? The Thunder Immortal wouldn't really want us to use such an... old-fashioned lightning control method to compete, would he?"

The monk finally couldn't hold back and spoke out his true feelings.

"Hush! This is the inheritance of the Eight Desolate Emperor! There must be another meaning behind it!"

"Maybe the Thunder Immortal is testing our ability to think independently. After all, how can someone who can accomplish great things be led by the rules?"

After some discussion, the Dayu monks felt that this test definitely did not require a race using such an outdated method of controlling thunder.

So they performed on the spot what it meant to be the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, each showing their magical powers.

Some directly used the method of controlling clouds, some took out magic weapons to fly, but no one used the method of controlling thunder.

It seems that he really dislikes the method of controlling thunder demonstrated by the Thunder Immortal.
