Up in Thunder Emperor Valley, Xiao Chen opened his eyes. His eyes were filled with purple electricity.
In the past five days, Xiao Chen's understanding of lightning had improved by another level.
Originally, there was no lightning in the world. Lightning was not like wind, fire, or water, which existed for a long time. Only when wind and clouds gathered would lightning appear. Lightning did not exist in isolation.
If there was no wind and no clouds, there would be no lightning.
It was just like the immortal divine lightning above Thunder Emperor Valley. Without the dark clouds that moved with the wind and lingered for a long time, no matter how powerful the Thunder King was, his will of thunder would not be able to last forever.
After comprehending this point, a vague image of the will of thunder appeared in Xiao Chen's mind.
Although Xiao Chen had not formally grasped the basics, he now had a general direction. He would not be as confused as before.
"In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed. Today, I have to gather at Dragon Sealing City," Xiao Chen muttered as he stood up.
Xiao Chen glanced at the half-step Martial Monarchs waiting for him to be struck by lightning. He could not help but find it funny.
"Xiu!"
Xiao Chen pushed off the ground, and a Blue Dragon image appeared. As it moved up and down, Xiao Chen silently arrived behind these people. He smiled and asked, "Old sirs, what are you all waiting for?"
"What else can we be waiting for? Waiting for that brat to be struck by lightning, of course!" an old man said dispiritedly.
When these people turned around and saw Xiao Chen behind them, they paled and retreated in fright.
"Ha ha! You are not very capable, but your heart is very vicious. In that case, I will let you have a taste of being struck by lightning first."
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and pointed. Winds and clouds moved in the sky. The clouds clashed, and a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, blasting the person who spoke into the water.
"Only when the clouds move can there be lightning. However, clouds cannot move without wind. Hence, there needs to be wind!"
Xiao Chen thought to himself. Then, he casually executed the comprehensions he had gained in Thunder Emperor Valley. Instantly, lightning flashed. A group of half-step Martial Monarchs waiting for Xiao Chen to be struck by lightning were struck by lightning.
They cried out miserably as they fell into the water, charred black.
"Let's go, to Dragon Sealing City."
Seeing that the old men were all struck by the lightning, Xiao Chen did not make things difficult for this group of people. He stood on the Blue Dragon and headed for Dragon Sealing City.
Gulp, gulp!
Xiao Chen walked far away. On the surface of the sea below, there was a burst of bubbles. One by one, black and swarthy heads popped out of the water like refugees.
They still did not understand each other. Feeling confused, they said, "That shouldn't be the case. Why is it that this brat is not struck by lightning, but we are?"
In the sky above Dragon Sealing City, the Bushin Palace's jade ship was overflowing with light. Celestial music lingered in the surroundings, and colorful clouds drifted.
The thick, dark clouds that had not melted for ten thousand years were split into two halves. Golden light shone from the center and poured down. Every building in the simple and unadorned Dragon Sealing City seemed to be covered in a layer of golden paint, looking very beautiful.
The geniuses of the Sky Dome Realm in the top twenty of the True Dragon Ranking stood at the bow of the ship. As they looked at the boundless Sky Dome Realm, they were all in high spirits and felt very nervous.
In the vast Sky Dome Realm, there were thousands of heroes. However, only the twenty of them could obtain the opportunity to enter the Kunlun Realm. What kind of glory was this?
However, they also felt very nervous in the depths of their hearts. After suffering at Xiao Chen's hands, they now had a clear understanding of their own strength.
Perhaps if they went to the Kunlun Realm, the pride that they had for the past twenty-odd years would be gone forever, vanishing into the crowd.
However, everyone here was a strong and confident person. The anticipation and desire in their hearts far outweighed their nervousness.
No one believed that they would lose. As long as they had a chance, even if they went to the Kunlun Realm, they could still rise up and obtain the glory that belonged to them.
There was no need to worry so much when they were young. As long as there was a dream in their hearts, no matter how cruel this world was, there was nothing to fear.
At this moment, Yue Chenxi and Old Feng were looking into the distance. It was clear that they were waiting for someone.
Gong Yangyu stood behind the two with a calm expression. His sect was much weaker than the Haotian Sect in the Kunlun Realm; it was only a Rank 8 sect.
After setting some conditions with his sect, Gong Yangyu decided to go to the Kunlun Realm. That was to say, he headed straight for the Haotian Sect.
If he went to his own sect, the treatment he would receive would be better. In a relatively small and weak sect, it would be easier for him to gain the attention of the upper echelons.
If he went to the Haotian Sect, where there were more geniuses, the competition he would face was something that the main sect could not compare to. The treatment he received would be worse as well.
This was a choice between being the head of a chicken or the tail of a phoenix. In the end, Gong Yangyu chose the latter.
Actually, most of the people here chose the latter as well. Those whose sects had not reached Rank 9 were prepared to look for a better place.
A smile appeared on Yue Chenxi's face as he said, "He is here!"
Gong Yangyu recovered his wits and quickly looked over. He saw a figure in the distance standing on the image of a Blue Dragon. As the figure moved up and down, it traveled one kilometer.
This figure quickly flew towards the jade warship. That person looked very graceful and extraordinary. He did not reveal himself, but he gave off an unfathomable feeling, one that no one could defeat.
Naturally, this person was the top ranker of the True Dragon Ranking, the White Robed Bladesman who dominated the younger generation of the Sky Dome Realm and defeated Wan Feng, the King Grade True Dragon genius, Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Chen is here!"
It was not just Yue Chenxi but also the gazes of everyone else focused on Xiao Chen. This White Robed Bladesman seemed to always be able to create miracles.
Back then, at the Wan Clan's plaza, the many outstanding young talents had been humiliated by Wan Feng. Although they were not convinced, they all suffered miserable defeats at his hands, unable to retaliate at all.
Only Xiao Chen, after defeating thirty-six Martial Monarchs and the Eight Great Guardian Deities, still had the strength to defeat Wan Feng.
Xiao Chen managed to gain some glory for the youths of the Sky Dome Realm.
"Sorry, I'm a little late."
Xiao Chen looked around at the situation. He had not expected the others to arrive so early, so he said apologetically to Old Feng.
Old Feng smiled gently and said, "There's no rush, there's no rush. There are people who came even later than you."
Xiao Chen looked carefully and discovered that there were already nineteen people in the top twenty. Only Chu Chaoyun was nowhere to be seen.
Strange, given Chu Chaoyun's talent, it would be too much of a pity if he did not go to the Kunlun Realm.
Xiao Chen thought doubtfully. At the same time, he felt somewhat disappointed. Xiao Chen and Chu Chaoyun had not truly determined a victor yet. The battle on the Wind Cloud Platform was just the beginning.
In the future, when the two of them reached the peak, there would definitely be another battle. If Chu Chaoyun did not go to the Kunlun Realm, he would only be left far behind, never able to catch up.
"I'm not waiting anymore. He is just a lower-realm genius, and he dares to put on airs in front of me. If he does not go, then so be it. Bushin Palace does not lack people like him."
The Extreme Yin Old Man's displeased voice came from the ship's hold.
"Hu chi!"
The instant the Extreme Yin Old Man spoke, the jade warship immediately soared into the air. Then, it flew at an extremely fast speed towards the boundless golden light above.
The thick, dark clouds that had been split in half slowly merged together like two pieces of the ceiling. Finally, they merged completely, and a huge shadow covered Dragon Sealing City once again.
Time passed slowly. Only when the age of geniuses began would the dark clouds above Dragon Sealing City open again and send down a golden light.
The dense golden light surrounded the jade warship. The many cultivators on the warship, including Xiao Chen, were all very curious as they looked around.
However, all they could see was golden light. They could not see anything special about it. How exactly did this warship reach the Kunlun Realm?
"Xiu!"
After an unknown period of time, the surrounding golden light suddenly dissipated. Boundless stars and a vast heavenly river appeared before everyone's eyes.
Normally, no one dared to look at the blazing sun. However, at this moment, it was just a small ball of fire in everyone's eyes. It looked very wondrous.
From time to time, huge flying rocks with long tails whizzed past everyone's eyes. The scene was quite thrilling.
The jade ship was surrounded by a transparent golden membrane, protecting it from being hit by the flying stones.
"This is the Starry Heavens?"
As someone from the modern era, Xiao Chen discovered that the Starry Heavens here could not be measured by the knowledge of Earth.
A jade warship could float in the Starry Heavens. No matter how much the people of that world imagined it, they would not dare to believe it.
When Xiao Chen looked back, he discovered that the original Sky Dome Realm was actually just a small stone stele with talisman scripts shining on it.
Xiao Chen was sure that the size of that stone stele surpassed that of the jade warship. However, the radiance it emitted enveloped all the stars in it.
Such a strange scene left people puzzled even after much thought.
"After we pass the whirlpool in front, we will reach the Kunlun Realm." Old Feng's voice came from behind Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen looked to the front. At some point in time, a seven-colored whirlpool had appeared in the boundless starry heavens. At some point in time, a seven-colored whirlpool had appeared. This whirlpool was incredibly huge, comparable to a planet.
Old Feng said gravely, "Xiao Chen, Yue Chenxi, and Gong Yangyu, now that we are here, I should tell you about the situation of the Kunlun Realm."
The group quickly listened, not daring to miss out on anything.
"Aside from humans, there are many other races of various sizes in the Kunlun Realm. The Kunlun Realm is ridiculously large; it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as boundless.
"The region that our human race controls is the Tianwu Domain. For the sake of resources, the various domains frequently erupt in great wars. The Bushin Palace is a faction formed by all the sects of the human race. It is the supreme sect that rules the Tianwu Domain.
"You don't have to know about the other races and the larger domains for now. Just the Tianwu Domain is more than enough for you to explore. You might not even be able to finish exploring it in your lifetime."
Gong Yangyu asked out of curiosity, "How big is the Tianwu Domain? Compared to the Tianwu Continent, it is slightly bigger."
When Gong Yangyu heard this, he could not help but laugh loudly. He said, "There is no comparison at all. The Tianwu Domain has one hundred and eight continents. Even the smallest continent is larger than a nation in the Tianwu Continent. The slightly larger continents are the size of two nations.
"This is just the places with human habitation. If we include some desolate mountains and ancient Remnants, it is even larger."
When Xiao Chen and the other two heard this, they could not help but be flabbergasted. Just the Tianwu Domain of the human race was already so large. In that case, how large was the entire Kunlun Realm?
"I'll say one last thing. You are all geniuses. Otherwise, the Haotian Sect would not have called you in.
"But if you want to do nothing, and the Clear Sky School directly spends resources to support you, that is absolutely impossible. It is the same for the other sects. If you want to obtain more resources, you need to bring out your strength to prove yourself and stand out from the other disciples.
