Chapter 429: Five inches and two centimeters, is it worthy of being called a dragon?
Because his wife died young, leaving him only with this child, the Taihu Lake God doted on Du Heng. He could remove the brilliance of the stars and moon to satisfy his wishes, or sit back and watch him execute palace maids to appease him.
The Taihu God tried his best to satisfy Du Heng's wishes. If he couldn't satisfy them, he could only let him vent his anger.
When he was young, he didn't think it was a big deal. The Taihu God had finally taken the throne, so naturally he wanted his son to live happily. But as he grew older, he found that things were no longer under his control.
Being rebellious and naughty are minor matters. Disregarding life and acting arbitrarily are also justifiable. But being distracted by pleasure and neglecting self-cultivation, spending the whole day seeking pleasure and putting self-cultivation aside, is not acceptable.
Without practice, everything is empty.
Three thousand years old had served three generations of Taihu Gods, and the current old dragon was not the last one. If Du Heng did not have sufficient strength, he would not be able to sit firmly on the throne after he stepped down.
Therefore, the Taihu Lake God began to discipline him, forbidding him from playing around, cutting off his association with other playboys, and forcing him to practice. Du Heng had long harbored resentment, which continued to accumulate, leading to the incident with the red pearl, his ignorance of the world, and his repeated offenses against the Great Immortal of the Golden Court.
Jin Ting Daxian learned all these things from Du Heng.
Compared to Du Heng, Tie Chen was a completely different story. The Taihu God appointed him General Taihu, placing all the complex affairs of Taihu under his charge.
At such a young age, Tiechen had to learn to work, leaving him no time for spiritual practice. The Taihu Lake God would not provide him with the nourishment for his practice, and even forced the 3,000-year-old prime minister, who had lived a clear and honest life, to do the dirty work of buying and selling for him, relying on secretly selling the treasures of the Water Palace to support Tiechen's practice.
Tiechen switched to cultivating the art of forbearance. The less time he had to cultivate, the more he had to squeeze it out. The less he had to eat, the more he had to cherish every drop of spiritual medicine. To this day, even though Duheng was supported by natural treasures and taught by the Taihu God, Tiechen was even better.
In terms of foundation, Tiechen is not as good as Duheng. But if they really fight, Duheng is definitely no match for Tiechen.
Du Heng is a dragon who grew up in pampering. If it weren't for the innate advantages of dragon species, it would be a pipe dream for him to cultivate to the sixth level.
From the seventh to the sixth rank, one cultivates the spirit, and most importantly, cultivates spiritual wisdom. Transforming into a human being is about acquiring the human body and spiritual wisdom.
Gong Mengbi's older brother, Fatty Kang, practices the art of eating immortals, and despite struggling through life, he still hasn't reached the sixth level. What spiritual wisdom does he possess?
If it weren't for the old dragon's tricks and the help of treasures, if it weren't for the advantages of dragon species and extraordinary spirituality, he would never have been able to cultivate to the sixth level.
As soon as the Great Immortal Jin Ting took a look, he realized that this little white dragon had cultivated to the sixth grade by relying on the innate advantages of the dragon species and the treasures. In front of the Great Immortal Jin Ting, a sixth-grade dragon could deceive him and make him lose his mind with just a glance.
He had never suffered, and although he held a deep hatred in his heart, he easily surrendered under the dragon whip.
If he could be tougher and let Jin Ting Daxian whip him a few more times to vent his anger, Jin Ting Daxian would still look up to him. But now his knees go weak after just one beating, and even Jin Ting Daxian has lost interest.
The Immortal Jin Ting ordered the Inspector to drive the flock of sheep here.
Three hundred rain workers bleated and crowded into the courtyard, surrounding Tiechen and Duheng.
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "You all know that I need the essence of heavenly thunder for cultivation. From today on, you will work with the Thunder Collector to collect the essence of heavenly thunder. With the help of the Rain Worker, it should not be difficult."
The Immortal Jin Ting treated Black Dragon like a tenant farmer, and now he has set his sights on Du Heng and Tie Chen. How could the Crown Prince Du Heng ever do such a thing? He has always been served by others, never by himself?
He was about to explode and said, "I'm not going!"
There was a loud thunderclap, and with a snap, Du Heng fell to the ground and trembled again.
The rain workers were so scared that they stepped around randomly. Several sheep's hooves stepped on Du Heng's face and body. Even though he was the young master of Taihu Lake, he was left with many black hoof prints.
The Immortal Jin Ting didn't waste time talking to him. He first gave him a whip and then asked, "I'm not discussing this with you. Are you going or not?"
Du Heng took one look at the dragon whip and agreed with tears of enthusiasm in his eyes.
The Immortal Jin Ting called the Thunder Collector down and said, "Today, our two students, Du Heng and Tie Chen, are driving the rain workers to assist us. You must hand over five inches and two fen of Heavenly Thunder Essence. Not a single centimeter of difference is allowed."
The mine-collecting officer was shocked and begged, "Great Immortal, please let us split up the mines. I'd like to collect three more, and leave the rest to them."
Jin Ting Daxian said, "You are an experienced person. With your guidance, they will be able to get the hang of it quickly. There is no need to worry."
The Immortal Jin Ting had made up his mind. No matter how much the Thunder Collector begged, it was useless. He could only turn his gaze towards Tie Chen and Du Heng, a fierce gleam in his eyes. "If you don't collect enough Heavenly Thunder Essence, don't blame me for punishing you."
The Thunder Officer took the lead, transformed into a black dragon and soared into the sky. Above the clouds, the dark clouds gathered by the Thunder Officer had not yet dissipated, so there was no need to waste any more time.
Du Heng transformed into a white dragon and Tie Chen transformed into a blue dragon, driving the rain worker to follow closely behind them and straight into the dark clouds.
Thunder continued in the dark clouds and surrounded the Thunder Officer. The friction between Yin and Yang produced thunder. The thunder gathered and the inspiration did not dissipate. In a moment, it turned into the essence of heavenly thunder.
Compared to simple thunder, the essence of heavenly thunder is the essence of thunder. It can not only attract thunder, but is also easier to use for cultivation.
As soon as the white dragon and the green dragon entered the dark clouds, they disrupted the spiritual power within the clouds. For a moment, thunder ran wildly and hit the three dragons, making them numb all over.
However, Yu Gong immediately transformed into a thunder beast and merged into the dark clouds, not afraid of the thunder at all.
Once the mind is disturbed, the essence of heavenly thunder will not be generated within a few moments.
The Thunder Officer was furious and flew up to fight with the White Dragon and the Azure Dragon. "You can make mistakes in controlling the clouds and rain, and you can mess up your plans by redirecting the thunder. What kind of dragon are you? What kind of dragon are you?"
The dark clouds above the sky continued to expand, and the shadows of three dragons fighting each other could be vaguely seen.
Thunder roared, lightning flashed, accompanied by cries of pain and dragon roars. Occasionally, a few dragon scales flew out, a few drops of dragon blood were spilled, and the two fought in a group.
The black dragon is older, has reached the fifth level of cultivation, and is extremely ferocious. There is no way the blue dragon and the white dragon can defeat him.
The Thunder Officer was angry that they had disturbed his mind, and also wanted to vent his personal anger, so he beat Qinglong and Bailong without mercy, making them beg for mercy.
The sound of the rainmaker's bleating had turned into a roar of thunder, and the thunder in the dark clouds was getting louder and louder.
The Thunder Collector was struck in the face by a bolt of lightning. He finally stopped with a gloomy expression and said, "To collect the essence of heavenly thunder, one needs to be able to mobilize yin and yang and summon spiritual power. Don't you have it?"
Tie Chen said awkwardly, "I have never done anything like controlling the clouds and rain. Wind and rain will always follow. I don't know how to mobilize my inspiration."
Du Heng covered his face and said, "Why do I have to make the clouds and rain myself? Why not just tell the rain workers or the rain department to do it? At the very least, take the cloud and rain flag. Why bother with all this trouble?"
The Thunder Officer was furious: "If you can't make the clouds and rain, do you deserve to be called a dragon?" He rushed over and beat the two dragons.
Tie Chen felt pain, but he didn't dare to contradict him. He said, "Brother, please teach us. Otherwise, if we don't pick enough today, we might be punished by the teacher!"
When Cai Leiguan heard him call him senior brother, the corners of his mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything.
In the end, the majesty of the Immortal Jin Ting overcame the anger in his heart, and the Thunder Officer said, "Come here and see how I do it!"
