Chapter 807: Chapter 807: Showing Off and Getting Struck by Lightning

“What’s going on? I’ve waited decades for this opportunity. Why would the energy of the Beast God Pool disappear?”

“Investigate! Find out where exactly that energy went! Which tribe’s bastard is behind this?”

“Damn it, if I can’t activate the Bloodline Power in my body with the help of the Beast God Pool’s energy, what am I supposed to rely on to fight those guys in the Hundred Tribes War?”

…

This scene unfolded in the core regions of nearly every nation on the Beast God Continent. Not just the Dragon-man Clan or the true Shamatte Clan, but other noble tribes of the continent as well found their Beast God Pool’s energy completely plundered. Even if they exerted all their efforts, what remained was just a drop in the ocean.

However, the Beast God Pool has countless tributaries. Almost every large humanoid tribe has one, while smaller tribes might share one among several. Considering how vast the Beast God Continent is, finding the source of this energy disappearance is easier said than done.

And who would have thought the source of it all turned out to be just a gathering place for a small tribe in a remote region?

…

Several days passed, and the semi-human creatures who had soaked in the energy of the Beast God Pool gradually awoke. They observed their bodies in disbelief, as if they were no longer who they used to be.

For those tribes famous for their strength, their every move emitted a beast-like roar, having awakened their Bloodline Power. Their strength was two or three times greater, or even more than before!

For tribes renowned for their speed, it was as if they could control their bodies more effortlessly, even sensing every move of the surrounding air currents precisely.

As for special tribes like the Split-tail Foxes, a mesmerizing scent enveloped them, as if anyone who caught a whiff of it would lose their mind.

Every outburst of the Beast God Pool’s energy requires a long wait, and only a mere three individuals can enjoy it each time. Yet this time, thanks to the emergence of the esteemed Shamatte Clan Elder, they were granted such an opportunity, instilling a deep reverence in their hearts.

But Fang Jueyu’s transformation was far from over. That ‘Dragon Siphon’ continued to carry endless energy into the sky, forming a massive red energy cocoon around Fang Jueyu as he transformed within it.

Er Gouzi and Xiao Hei didn’t miss this chance either. They were fierce beasts, and high-level ones at that, so they too began to undergo their transformations amid this energy surge.

Siria alone remained like a guardian, diligently sitting on the ground, protecting Fang Jueyu’s breakthrough.

“Where on earth did he acquire such terrifying techniques?” Siria appeared calm, yet he knew such methods would be challenging even for him.

“You all go back now. Xi Yangyang’s breakthrough will continue for a while. During this time, all tribes must cease their battles, or I will personally obliterate your entire tribe!”

At this moment, which tribe had the mood to battle? What was their fighting for after all? Wasn’t it for seizing resources? This energy surge had remarkably elevated their tribal standards, and it would take significant time to digest these gains!

They nodded repeatedly and then quickly vanished into the forest.

…

Fang Jueyu’s body was extremely unique. At the Divine Ability User stage, he had already birthed an internal universe, which meant the energy required for his advancement far surpassed that of ordinary Martial Artists, and Mohe as an extra feature had further multiplied this.

But the more it was so, the more unimaginable things would happen once he broke through.

One year, two years, three years… ten years! Fang Jueyu remained within that energy cocoon for a full decade! Over those ten years, with his devouring method that could swallow the sky and devour the earth, not even the Beast God Pool of the entire continent could withstand such absorption.

Finally, by the 12th year, the water of the Beast God Pool had almost turned transparent, but for Fang Jueyu, it was already enough!

“Boom! Boom! Boom!” One night, a thunderous roar erupted in the sky, awakening all the tribes throughout the mountain range.

“That direction—isn’t that the direction of the esteemed Shamatte Elder?”

“Has Xi Yangyang possibly finished the breakthrough?”

“Strange, why would thunder appear? Doesn’t such a phenomenon occur only when semi-humans are advancing to Transcenders?”

Unlike humans, when semi-humans break through to Controllers, their bloodline power further purifies. During this process, the human part of their blood clashes intensely with the beast part. The collision of these two forces creates various unpredictable natural events around the semi-human.

Moreover, a so-called internal world is born within them during this process. This power resonates with external forces, amplifying those natural phenomena a thousandfold!

This power can cause geological changes on planets, shake mountains and seas, and even trigger stellar anomalies. Any of these might pose life-threatening dangers to the semi-humans undergoing a breakthrough. Only by enduring this can they become genuine Transcenders, possessing endless life.

The most common phenomenon is thunder! It’s like the legendary Tribulation Lightning attracted by demons practicing to the point of becoming spirits.

“Maybe the Shamatte Elder’s unique talent is stirring such phenomena?”

“Let’s go, quickly check it out. It’s a rare sight to behold!”

“Yeah, and I wonder if the Elder can withstand this Tribulation Lightning. I heard that in our capital city, an Elder once attempted to break through to Transcender but couldn’t withstand the natural forces. That flame burned an entire mountain range for hundreds of years, reducing the mountain and the Elder to ashes.”

“He surely can. Xi Yangyang is the most extraordinarily gifted person I’ve ever seen!”

…

“Crack!” The energy cocoon became solid, and with a series of fine cracks, an arm shot out from within.

The energy inside Fang Jueyu’s body was exceptionally active. He felt like his internal universe and the external world had formed a special energy resonance, which he couldn’t calm down no matter how hard he tried, as if it was about to erupt at any moment.

“Oh my god, what the hell?” He glanced at the sky. The star-filled sky had turned dark, with thick clouds hovering over his head. Multicolored lightning flashed within them, seemingly brewing some terrifying offensive.

“What’s going on? Did I show off too much, and now I’m about to be struck by lightning?” Fang Jueyu shivered, feeling an indescribable dread from the clouds. He looked up at the sky, clasped his hands together, mumbling, “Dear Heavens, don’t torment me. I’ll stop flexing on my own; only if I’m forced by others will I show off. Please retract your divine powers.”

“Can we speak a little scientifically?” Xiao Yi complained. “If showing off warranted a lightning strike, you would have been struck to ashes back on Earth!”

“That’s true,” Fang Jueyu nodded almost mindlessly, “Wait, no, damn it, I’m flying in mid-air, and there’s Tribulation Lightning here, yet you’re talking science to me? Talk about the occult, and it’s closer!”

“Host, someone’s coming!” Xiao Yi alerted. “It seems like this incident caused quite a stir, attracting even the Transcenders of this Beast God Continent’s nation!”

“Oh? Could it be the upper echelons of this nation?”

“I think they’re probably investigating the anomaly of the Beast God Pool and coincidentally found this anomaly nearby?”

“Interesting!” Fang Jueyu cracked a smile. “I think this might be an opportunity.”

“Are you looking to show off again?” The moment Fang Jueyu stood, Xiao Yi could already tell his intention. “Who was it saying just now they’d never boast again?”

“What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

“Host, you’re such a shameless dog.”
