Chapter 271: The Gathering Spirit of the Nine Mysterious Golden Lightning!



"Boom!"

As Gu Fei ventured deeper into the lightning pool, the violent Black Demon Lightning rushed at him as though they had found their target.

"At your current level, you no longer pose a threat to me."

Gu Fei glanced at the large number of Black Demon Lightning with little concern.

"Swoosh..."

In the next moment, one after another, the lightning bolts struck his body. However, these bolts, which could threaten even low-ranked Dou Saints, dissipated instantly upon contact with him, as if they had met their nemesis.

Around Gu Fei's body was a faint pink flame- the power of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame. With this layer of protection, the Black Demon Lightning couldn't harm him in the slightest. Not only that but when some of them touched the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, they were immediately purified, transforming into pure energy that was absorbed into Gu Fei's body. "Indeed, this flame ranked third on the Heavenly Flame List, is remarkable. It can even purify the Black Demon Lightning."

Seeing this, Gu Fei smiled, praising the flame.

However, as he continued forward, the number of lightning bolts around him surged dramatically. Dense black lightning filled the sky, rushing toward him as if endless. Even the extraordinary powers of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame began to struggle under the sheer quantity.

"Boom!"

Thick black bolts, like giant dragons, crashed into his body, producing deafening explosions. The terrifying lightning power would be unbearable for most ordinary Dou Saints, yet he remained unmoved, standing firm in the void.

"It seems without the devouring power of the Nihility Devouring Flame, it's hard to absorb these thunders!"

Gu Fei showed a trace of regret on his face. If his flames could merge with the ranked two Heavenly Flame his growth would undoubtedly be faster.

*Sigh*n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Oh well. Everything depends on fate," Gu Fei muttered to himself.

Even so, these Black Demon Lightning were still a valuable resource for Gu Fei. Though he couldn't completely absorb them, they tempered his body, making them an excellent method for enhancing his physical strength.

As Gu Fei pressed on, the black lightning bolts grew fiercer. Enormous bolts ravaged the sky, dyeing the entire heavens black.

Suddenly, Gu Fei sensed a unique pressure in the air. It was a force distinct from the Black Demon Lightning as if it came from an ancient and mysterious power. Intrigued, he headed in the direction of this strange aura.

As he neared the dark region, the pressure intensified, even making Gu Fei pause for a moment. His eyes revealed a hint of astonishment.

At the center of the lightning sea lay a massive golden dragon, gleaming as if forged from pure gold. The dragon's body was thousands of feet long, exuding a fearsome aura that struck fear into the heart.

What was most astounding were the countless golden lightning bolts erupting from its body, turning the sky golden.

"It is the Nine Mysterious Golden Lightning," Gu Fei murmured in awe.

If one were to rank lightning-based energies like the Heavenly Flame List ranks flames, this lightning would rival the status of the Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame or the Nihility Devouring Flame.

Legend has it that the Nine Mysterious Golden Lightning only appears when a Ninth-Tier Golden Pill is being refined. Each of its appearances is earth-shattering, shaking heaven and earth. Even a Dou Saint would seem insignificant under its mighty lightning force.

For thousands of years, there had been no news of this golden lightning on the continent. This meant that in all this time, no Ninth-Tier Golden Pill had been successfully refined- an almost divine pill, no longer within anyone's capability to create.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Fei suppressed his shock. He didn't rashly approach the golden dragon but instead found a safe spot at a distance and sat cross-legged.

"Since I've encountered it, I might as well wait here. If I'm lucky, I might witness the scene where it gathers its spirit."

Gu Fei thought to himself.

Time passed slowly as Gu Fei sat in the void, patiently waiting. Around him, the Black Demon Lightning seemed intimidated by the golden dragon, not daring to approach, making this area a rare sanctuary of peace.

Half a month passed in a blink.

Just as Gu Fei thought he might leave empty-handed, a sudden change occurred!

In the depths of the thundering sea, the massive golden dragon's body erupted with huge arcs

of lightning. Within these arcs, the sorrowful cry of a dragon echoed, shaking the heavens.

Even the Black Demon Lightning fled in terror as if encountering a natural enemy.

"The spirit gathering is about to begin!"

Gu Fei's eyes sparkled as he excitedly stood up.

Such a sight wasn't something that could be seen at will. It was a rare opportunity, possibly once in several lifetimes!

In his view, the golden dragon's surrounding lightning grew more violent. Countless golden arcs intertwined in the void, forming a massive lightning domain. At its center, a golden orb was slowly taking shape.

The orb grew larger and brighter as if it would paint the entire world in gold. As it formed, the surrounding heaven and earth's spiritual energy surged wildly toward it.

Gu Fei held his breath, focusing entirely on observing this phenomenon.

As time passed, the golden orb became more solid. During this period, the golden lightning dragon let out earth-shaking roars, as if transforming.

At one point, the golden dragon temporarily stopped roaring. Gu Fei's eyes locked onto it, sensing that the Nine Mysterious Golden Lightning had undergone some kind of qualitative

change.

The massive dragon slowly raised its head, and two brilliant eyes, like stars, suddenly opened. In those eyes, there was a hint of intelligence.

"Roar!"

The golden thunder dragon let out a long roar, filled with the joy of life.

"Can the Nine Mysterious Golden Lightning successfully form a spirit and gain

consciousness?"

Gu Fei murmured to himself.

In most cases, this level of spirit formation typically fails.

"Roar!"

Sure enough, just as his thought ended, a trace of pain echoed in the golden lightning

dragon's roar.
