Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Now that it had fallen into the hands of the Du Family, the other great families were secretly jealous. However, they had no way of getting a share of the loot.
Not long after, outside the Du Family, a majestic group of Du Family practitioners set out for the Barbaric Beast Mountain Range. Second Master Du Zhixiong personally led the team, their goal was to destroy the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group.
After this news spread, the people in the stone city could only silently pray for the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group.
Although the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group was very strong, and was one of the top hunting groups at the edge of the Barbaric Beast Mountain Range, it was still far from being comparable to the Du Family. With the Du Family's second master personally taking action, the outcome was obvious. This also proved that the Du Family was truly enraged this time.
That afternoon, the Du Family.
In the study, Du Zhenwu handed a Cultivation Coin card to Du Shaofu and said, "A total of six million Cultivation Coins. After we took over the Bao Lai business, we found over two million Cultivation Coins. The goods within the Bao Lai business are also worth over two million Cultivation Coins. Adding on the Bao Lai business's signboard, it should be enough to cover your winnings."
Du Shaofu was taken aback, then chuckled and said, "Uncle, then isn't the six million Cultivation Coins you gave me a little too much?"
Du Zhenwu smiled faintly and said, "You won 5.2 million Cultivation Coins. The remaining eight hundred thousand Cultivation Coins are given to you by the Du Family because you gave our Du Family a fair and just reason to deal with the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group. After your second uncle destroys the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group, I estimate that with the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group's influence and wealth, we will still be able to obtain over three million Cultivation Coins. Therefore, the eight hundred thousand Cultivation Coins are given to you by the Du Family and is also what you deserve. In fact, the Du Family has gained quite a bit this time."
"Then I won't stand on ceremony."
Hearing this, Du Shaofu did not stand on ceremony. He was currently in need of money, and as the quality of the elixirs for his cultivation increased, they became more and more expensive. This six million Cultivation Coins was already a huge sum that an ordinary person would not be able to touch in their lifetime, but it was definitely not enough to support Zhen Qingchun for long.
"Well done this time, but it was too risky. Don't be so careless next time."
Du Shaofu still had some lingering fear in his heart. If the King Scaled Demon Tiger hadn't appeared in time, with the strength of the third captain of the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group, Du Shaofu's fate would have been a little grim.
"En." Du Shaofu could only nod his head in response. It was hard to say that the King Scaled Demon Tiger was arranged by him in advance.
Du Zhenwu looked at Du Shaofu with satisfaction and continued, "You won the competition yesterday. Today, you can rest for a day. Tomorrow, you will enter the Ye Clan's Lightning Pool. When the time comes, how much you can gain will depend on yourself."
"I will do my best."
Du Shaofu was already looking forward to it. It was said that the thunder pool was capable of tempering one's body. It was absolutely beneficial to the Golden Winged Roc body transformation method that he cultivated. Perhaps this time he would be able to further enhance his body transformation method.
As for the body transformation method, Du Shaofu had always placed great importance on it. If it wasn't for the Conjoined Body Transformation Method, it would have been hard to say what would have happened to Cao Qitai yesterday.
Du Zhenwu hesitated for a moment, then looked at Du Shaofu and said, "The Lightning Pool is related to the Thunder Lion. After you enter the Lightning Pool, pay a little attention. However, you have to be extra careful. It would be better if you could find out about the Thunder Lion's situation, but the most important thing is to pay attention to your own safety."
Du Shaofu understood the meaning of his uncle's words and lightly nodded his head.
The Ye Clan was without a doubt the number one power in Stone City. They had controlled Stone City for many generations and were extremely loved by the residents of Stone City.
The next morning, after Du Shaofu freshened up, he rode a Blood Ferghana Dragon Horse to the Ye Clan. When he arrived outside the Ye Clan, he was respectfully invited in by two Ye Clan disciples.
The Ye Clan's buildings were continuous. The courtyards and pavilions were magnificent, and there were artificial mountains and ponds everywhere. The environment was extremely elegant.
Under the guidance of the Ye Clan disciples, they passed through several long paths. Du Shaofu arrived at a pavilion, and only then did the two Ye Clan disciples leave.
"You're quite early."
A beautiful figure gently walked over. It was Ye Zijin of the Ye Clan. Today, she wore a pair of tight pants, which made her slender and straight legs look extremely slender. On top of that, she wore a light colored short shirt, which made her slender waist and the curve of her chest form a beautiful arc.
Ye Zijin's clothes today made her look even more charming, causing Du Shaofu to take a few more glances at her. Then, he smiled and said, "I'm going to the Lightning Pool to cultivate. Naturally, I have to be early."
Ye Zijin looked at Du Shaofu and asked, "I'm in charge of bringing you to the Lightning Pool. I'm sure you know about the origins and uses of the Lightning Pool, right?"
Du Shaofu nodded his head. His uncle had already told him about the origins and uses of the Lightning Pool. The Lightning Pool was owned by the Ye Clan and it was rumored that it could only be opened once every few years. Inside the Lightning Pool, there was a small amount of essence blood from the Lightning Lion. Cultivating in the Lightning Pool would allow one to use the lightning to refine one's body. It was extremely beneficial to one's cultivation. If one could cultivate in the Lightning Pool, one's future would be limitless.
"This is a Lightning Resistance Pill specially concocted by our Ye Clan. Consume it when you enter the Lightning Pool. If not, the lightning energy within the Lightning Pool is not something that you can withstand with your current cultivation level. If not, before you can even refine your body, you will be blasted into pieces."
As Ye Zijin spoke, she handed a round and shiny pill over to Du Shaofu. The pill emitted a faint fragrance, causing one to feel comfortable just by smelling it. She spoke softly, "This Lightning Resistance Pill can help you withstand the lightning energy. However, once the effects of the Lightning Resistance Pill have worn off, if you are unable to withstand the lightning energy within the Lightning Pool, you must not try to withstand it. If anything happens, even my Ye Clan will not be able to take responsibility."
Du Shaofu nodded his head, indicating that he understood. Without any hesitation, he accepted the Lightning Resistance Pill.
"Then follow me. How much benefits you can gain from the Lightning Pool will depend on yourself."
Ye Zijin smiled. Then, with light steps, she led the way, gesturing for Du Shaofu to follow beside her.
"I heard that you were in the limelight again yesterday?" Ye Zijin said softly along the way.
"Honest people are easy to bully," Du Shaofu said softly.
Ye Zijin stopped in her tracks. She stared at Du Shaofu. She really could not see how he was honest. When had he ever been bullied? She heard that in the end, it was the Bao Lai Enterprise that ended up in a terrible state.
"Sigh …" Ye Zijin looked at Du Shaofu. In the end, she did not say anything. She just sighed softly and continued to lead the way.
After passing through several small paths, Du Shaofu followed Ye Zijin to a quiet and secluded place.
An ancient building appeared in front of Du Shaofu's eyes. It was surrounded by a large square. In the middle of it, there was a building that looked like a pagoda but not a pagoda. It looked like a palace but not a palace. It gave off an ancient aura, as if it had existed for many years.
"What a powerful aura."
Du Shaofu could feel a berserk aura as he stood far away from the building that was neither a tower nor a palace. This aura caused one's heart to tremble for no reason, and could shake one's soul. It was as if there was an abnormally powerful ferocious beast hibernating within this simple and unadorned building.
Ye Zijin said, "The Lightning Pool is inside. Once you enter, the Lightning Pool will automatically activate. Remember what I said. If you can't withstand it, don't force it."
"Okay."
Du Shaofu nodded. After taking in a deep breath, he walked directly into the ancient building.
After entering the building, Du Shaofu could feel the violent aura even more clearly. A dim light shone in from outside the door, making the interior of the building dim and hazy.
However, even though the light was dim, it did not prevent Du Shaofu from seeing a stone door.
There was no other path in the building. Du Shaofu directly stepped through the stone door.
"Zilala!"
The moment Du Shaofu stepped through the stone door, the stone door behind him suddenly fluctuated with lightning. 'Zizi', the electric arcs hung on the stone door and shuttled back and forth endlessly. It was like a dense spider web, causing one to shudder.
"Boom!"
At this moment, the entire ancient building suddenly shook. Outside the door, electric arcs lingered densely.
Even the entire ancient building occasionally flashed with lightning. It was incomparably mystical.
"I wonder how much he will benefit from it. His body is already very strong. After the Lightning Pool refines his body, I'm afraid it will be even more terrifying. What a perverse person."
Ye Zijin stood in the plaza. After the ancient building's door was enveloped by lightning, her beautiful figure turned and left.
"Roar!"
A thunderous beast roar echoed out from within the stone city. The sound wave rushed to the nine heavens before disappearing into the blue dome of heaven.
At this moment, in the stone city, many people's gazes were fixed on the Ye Family in the middle of the stone city. Each of them had different expressions on their faces.
"The power of lightning."
Du Shaofu turned his head to look at the electric arcs on the stone door behind him. Even though he was a distance away, he could still feel a palpitating aura.
In front of the stone door, there was a spiral stone staircase. It did not lead upwards, but downwards, as if it was leading to the bottom.
Du Shaofu was not worried. His feet followed the spiral stone staircase as he descended. In his heart, he could feel a violent aura coming from the bottom of the staircase. It was getting more and more violent, and there was a faint sound of thunder.
As Du Shaofu went deeper, electric arcs flashed on the stone walls beside the staircase, illuminating the entire space.
The atmosphere inside was also frozen for no reason, causing Du Shaofu's heart to become inexplicably nervous.
When the last step of the staircase was completed, an intense light flashed. The dazzling light caused Du Shaofu to squint his eyes.
After his eyes adjusted, Du Shaofu opened his eyes. Looking in front of him, his face was filled with astonishment.
"Is this the Lightning Pool?"
What appeared in front of Du Shaofu's eyes was a huge karst cave. Inside the karst cave, there were densely packed stalactites, a riot of colors.
"Crackle …"
On the stalactites, there was lightning flashing on them. It was extremely beautiful and visually stunning.
