"If that's the case, how did you get the Spirit Nurturing Grass? Did you take the risk to jump in and pick it up?" Lin Yi and the others asked curiously.
"How is that possible? I was actually lucky to find the Spirit Nurturing Grass at the edge of this basin. Otherwise, I wouldn't have found it anywhere else! " Ni Caiyue shook her head and added, "My master told me that the Mystic Nurturing Grass is an extremely rare elixir. Even in the Thunder Burial Basin, it's not common and it's hard to find."
Lin Yi couldn't help but frown after hearing that. He stared at the basin in front of him speechlessly. It's here, but the legendary Lightning Burial Ground was a little scary!
Previously, the president of the Alliance had said that no one would be able to survive the Thunder Burial. Although it was unknown if he was only referring to the academy's disciples or if it included existences at his level, one thing was for sure — the Thunder Burial was definitely not a trivial matter. It was far from being comparable to an ordinary Thunder Tribulation.
Even the Lightning Tribulation that he experienced before couldn't be compared to it. Even with Lin Yi's current strength, he wasn't confident that he could come out after entering the Lightning Burial Ground.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Ni Caiyue suddenly said, "I've brought you to the place. I'm going back now."
"Mm, go ahead." Lin Yi nodded and gestured for her to walk slowly.
"Goodbye then, good guy who hides himself well!" Ni Caiyue stuck out her tongue and skipped away excitedly.
"A good guy is a good guy. What do you mean by 'good guy' …" Lin Yi curled his lips as he watched the girl leave.
"Be content. It's good enough that she thinks of you as a good guy. It's better than a bad guy who hides himself well." Wang Xinyan smiled. Huang Xiaotao and Lu Xiaozhong giggled at the side.
"Alright, does that mean that I've profited?" Lin Yi smiled awkwardly and pointed at the basin, "It's rare that I'm here. I want to go down and take a look. I won't have the chance to do so anymore."
"What? But this is the Lightning Burial Ground. You'll die if you go in! " Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao were shocked. The Mystic Nurturing Grass was good, but it couldn't compare to their lives.
"I have already made up my mind. Don't try to persuade me anymore. This place is indeed a place of certain death for all of you. However, I should be able to make it. Even if I really cannot make it through the Lightning Burial, I should be able to make it back. I won't die in there," said Lin Yi with a firm attitude.
"I …" Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao looked at each other, and finally nodded reluctantly. "Alright, but don't try to be brave. Get out if you see something's wrong, and don't hesitate. Something like the Mystic Raising Grass is a blessing, and it's my fate if I don't get it."
Of course, they weren't willing to let Lin Yi enter this extremely dangerous Lightning Burial Ground. Let alone a few Xuan Nurturing Grass, even if there were ten thousand Xuan Nurturing Grass beneath his feet, they still wouldn't let Lin Yi take the slightest risk. However, they knew Lin Yi's personality. Even though he was usually easy to negotiate, once he had made up his mind, he would never go back on his word!
"Mm, don't worry. My life is very precious. I won't give it up for a few Xuan Nurturing Grass." Lin Yi gave them a reassuring look, and then said, "While I'm down there, you guys can look around. If you're lucky, you might be able to get a few Xuan Nurturing Grass like that chick Ni did. However, be careful, there might be dangers around here."
"Alright, remember to be very, very, very, very careful. If you see any danger, come back immediately!" Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao reminded him worriedly again.
"Got it!" Although it sounded long-winded, Lin Yi still felt warm inside. If it was someone else, they wouldn't have been so patient with him.
Lin Yi was about to jump into the basin, but before he could get up, the ghost's voice suddenly sounded in his head, "Wait!"
"What?" Lin Yi was shocked. If even the ghost had to stop him, then he really had to reconsider whether he should go or not.
Wang Xinyan and the others didn't know about the eight compound spirit roots in his body, but the ghost knew everything clearly. Moreover, with its experience, it could clearly judge whether he could withstand such a dangerous situation. If it said no, then it basically couldn't. Going would only be courting death.
"This place … seems to be the legendary Thunder Burial City!" The ghost suddenly said after a moment of silence.
"What do you mean?" Lin Yi was slightly shocked. Ni Caiyue only said that there was a Thunder Burial City here, but what the hell was this Thunder Burial City?
"Mm, this should be the Thunder Burial City!" The ghost carefully observed for a while before it finally confirmed and explained, "This is also a secret rumor among the spiritual beasts. You humans rarely know about it. If I'm not wrong, this place is the final resting place of those powerful lightning-type spiritual beasts!"
"Final resting place?" Lin Yi was stunned for a moment before he reacted, "Does that mean … this is the graveyard of the lightning-type spiritual beasts?"
"That's right! Do you know that there are also lightning dragons in our dragon branch? "The ghost said.
"Lightning dragons? Never heard of it. " Lin Yi shook his head. Aside from this green dragon, he had seen many different kinds of dragons, from the Five Malevolent Dragons in the mortal world to the Five Poison Serpent Dragons in the Five Poison Swamp, and then the sea dragons, which belonged to the sea beasts. He'd never heard of this lightning dragon.
"Hehe, the bloodline of lightning dragons isn't pure. They're actually the offspring of lightning eagles and us dragons, but they're also listed in our genealogy, so I know a little bit about them. Let me think about it." The ghost smiled.
"Alright." Lin Yi nodded, but couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. It was true that dragons were lustful by nature, as if they could get together with any kind of lifeform. What was even more ridiculous was that they were able to overcome the natural barrier of reproductive isolation and create all kinds of hybrids.
Legend had it that serpents were the hybrids of dragons and snakes, sea dragons were the hybrids of dragons and sea beasts, and lightning dragons were the hybrids of dragons and lightning eagles. As for the Five Malevolent Dragons, Lin Yi didn't even dare imagine what kind of evil they'd done to them. The variety of relationships they had was truly amazing.
Xinyan and the others couldn't help but find it strange that Lin Yi didn't understand what was going on. They looked at each other, thinking that he was observing the basin below them. They didn't disturb him, choosing to stay by his side quietly.
