Chapter 2548 - 551: Mysterious Space: Master of the Purple Lightning Thunder Bull
Suddenly, a terrifying roar erupted.
The entire Heavenly Thunder Cave seemed about to collapse.
Chen Beixuan, still inside the cave, sensed something was going wrong and hurriedly dashed out.
When he returned to the cave again, he found the Thunder Pool had already shattered, and the scene was a mess.
Only the corpse of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor was lying there, like a stiff dead bull.
The divine inscriptions floated in midair, but Ling Xiao, Lin Ruoxian, and Yue Shang were nowhere to be seen.
"Truly heaven aids me!"
Although Chen Beixuan didn’t know what had happened, he was clear about one thing.
The inheritance of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor was right in front of him, within arm’s reach.
"Collect!"
Chen Beixuan opened his right hand, ready to absorb those three divine inscriptions into his body.
But at this moment, someone suddenly darted in from outside; it was Lin Yuetian.
Lin Yuetian had been waiting here for an opportunity for a long time.
He knew he was no match for Chen Beixuan and the Tianfeng Group on his own.
But now, it was only Chen Beixuan here.
The other martial artists were either dead or had left the cave to seek other inheritances.
This heaven-sent opportunity was something he certainly wouldn’t miss.
Due to the sudden occurrence, Chen Beixuan didn’t have time to guard against it and was punched into the Thunder Pool by Lin Yuetian, and the three divine inscriptions were taken by Lin Yuetian.
Originally, the two were evenly matched in strength.
Now, with Lin Yuetian’s stealth attack, it naturally worked twice as effectively.
"Hahaha, my hiding like a mouse for nearly three days has not been in vain!
Chen Beixuan, oh Chen Beixuan, the Bull God Labyrinth competition will end in an hour, and I must report back.
Sorry!"
Lin Yuetian laughed wildly as he fled outside.
He certainly wouldn’t fight to the death with Chen Beixuan.
Anyway, it’s the last hour of the third day, and it’s time to calculate the results.
"Damn, stop right there!"
Chen Beixuan chased madly.
Without the Bull God Beast Soul, the inheritance of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor was his only chance to become a disciple of the Secret Realm Academy.
He certainly wouldn’t give up.
After all, his strength was superior to Lin Yuetian’s; as long as he caught up with Lin Yuetian, he could reclaim the inheritance of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor.
At this moment, no one was paying attention to where Ling Xiao and the others had gone.
"What is this place?"
Ling Xiao rubbed his somewhat dizzy head and looked at the bizarre scene around him.
This should be underground, with constant flashes of lightning, like a terrifying Thunder Domain.
At this time, Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang also woke up.
They were as confused as Ling Xiao about what this place was.
"Although we don’t know, this must be a very special place within the Bull God Labyrinth, and we were forcibly teleported here after defeating the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor.
There may be surprises, so be careful."
Ling Xiao reminded them and then swallowed a Blood Spirit Fruit.
The other two did the same.
After the exhausting battle with the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor, the three were injured.
Ling Xiao’s cultivation level at the First Transformation of Yin-Yang Realm, Sixth Layer Hell Peak further enhanced, reaching threefold power.
The other two’s two major inheritances within their bodies were also activated, advancing even faster than him, reaching sevenfold power.
After finishing their recovery, the three began to search this unfamiliar place.
Seemingly, this was more like a different dimensional space.
"I suspect this space exists within the body of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor."
Since Ling Xiao himself possesses the Mountain and River World, he felt very strongly.
If that were true, it meant they had entered the body of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor.
But which part specifically was unknown.
Indeed, if someone outside observed the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor’s corpse, they would discover the eyes of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor sparking strange light.
Although not very obvious, a careful notice would reveal it.
Unfortunately, neither Chen Beixuan nor Lin Yuetian noticed these anomalies, focusing entirely on the divine inscriptions.
The three, searching within this peculiar space for a brief period, found a room.
The door of the room was shielded by lightning.
This intensity was far superior to the lightning array formation in the Heavenly Thunder Cave.
Ling Xiao sensed the reaction from the Heavenly Thunder Dagger in his Storage Ring and took it out.
As the Heavenly Thunder Dagger touched the lightning on the door, the lightning vanished.
It seemed to have been absorbed into the dagger.
The door opened, and the three walked inside to find a study room.
The bookshelves were filled entirely with Martial Arts Secret Books.
What would normally be regarded as Supreme Treasures, top-grade Jade Martial Arts Skills, were merely ordinary here.
Most skills here were top-grade Jade Martial Arts Skills of outstanding quality, and some were the most top-level Jade Martial Arts Skills.
If the people of the Eight Immortals County City knew about this, they’d probably be ecstatic to the point of madness.
"This should be safe; you two go ahead, choose suitable top-grade Jade Martial Arts Skills, ideally pick sets of good, outstanding, and top-level.
Since your cultivation levels aren’t that high at present, it’s better to start learning from the good quality level."
Ling Xiao advised them and continued to search within the room.
He felt things were not that simple.
Since the Heavenly Thunder Dagger was related to this space, did it mean this space was created by those family members of the Chen Dynasty Capital?
If they did create it, then it should contain better things.
Considering the strength of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor, how could the martial artists from this family be weak?
"The keyhole of this chest just fits the Heavenly Thunder Dagger; why not give it a try?"
After searching the whole study room, he indeed discovered a black wooden chest in an unobtrusive corner.
This black wood was very hard, stronger than steel.
First, he performed a threefold defensive array, as the contents of the chest were unknown.
Then he inserted the dagger into the lock.
At that moment, a terrifying lightning burst forth from the chest.
The lightning gradually condensed into a human figure.
This person, Ling Xiao had never seen before, very unfamiliar.
But he guessed it might be a member of the family destroyed long ago.
"Are you the destined one who defeated the Purple Lightning Thunder Bull?"
Clearly, the lightning taking human form was merely a soul sealed within the black wooden chest.
Its voice was filled with authority and a sense of history.
To directly address the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor as the Purple Lightning Thunder Bull suggested it was stronger than the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor.
Or perhaps its master.
"That’s right, how should I address you?"
Ling Xiao asked.
Because of his poor impression of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Emperor, Ling Xiao’s attitude towards this figure was equally indifferent.
"Hahaha, it seems you are very displeased with that Purple Lightning Thunder Bull, which is fair, as that vile creature, not only abandoned its master in times of crisis but also devoured the corpses of over a thousand family members afterward.
An unforgivable crime.
By killing it, you have become a benefactor to our family."
