Under Shui Mochan's lead, the people from Dayin Tower advanced very quickly. Although most of them didn't want to come to this place, they had no choice. After all, Shui Mochan had a high status in Dayin Tower. They could only risk their lives to accompany him. Otherwise, once they left Dayin Tower, their cultivation would be crippled and they would be expelled. That would be a fate worse than death.
However, as they continued to approach the peak of the lightning mountain, the oppressive aura that caused one's heart to palpitate grew thicker and thicker. The purple lightning within the clouds had already become clearly visible. That frightening aura could easily cause serious injuries or even death if it brushed past the crowd.
Unfortunately, Shui Mochan, who was walking in front, seemed to be completely oblivious to this. He continued to walk straight to the top of the mountain.
What everyone did not know was that behind them, a strange figure was tailing them from far behind. But what was strange was that the disciples of the Great Symphony Tower, who had always been known for their intelligence gathering, did not discover the person who was tailing them. Even Shui Mo Chan, who was walking at the very front, did not notice anything, as if that figure did not exist at all.
Not long after, the group of people from the Great Symphony Building arrived at the mountainside covered by dark clouds. If they continued to walk up from here, the danger would increase step by step. This was because the terrifying thunder and lightning in the sky could fall at any time.
The moment they stepped into the dark clouds, Shui Mochan began to condense a large amount of spirit force in his eyes. His eyes flashed with a blue light as he looked up.
They saw that the entire mountain was covered in charred rocks. A large amount of black rocks had been shattered and covered the ground under everyone's feet. They had all been split apart by the lightning in the sky.
Just when everyone was hesitating, there was a loud bang. A purple lightning bolt came down and smashed on a rock a few hundred meters away from everyone. In an instant, rubble flew everywhere. Everyone felt a terrifying pressure that could destroy the world at this moment.
"Miss Shui, we …" The young cultivator gulped. Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Shui Mochan.
"Continue!" Shui Mochan didn't stop and continued to advance to the top of the mountain.
The sky-prides of Dayin Tower were already terrified by this terrifying lightning. Asking them to advance at this time was no different from asking them to die.
Unfortunately, Shui Mochan did not have any qualms about these people at all. What she wanted to do, no one could stop her!
"Either you follow me up now, or I'll kill all of you and go up alone!" Shui Mochan's cold voice had already explained everything at this moment. In order to achieve her goal, she did not mind killing the chicken to warn the monkey.
There was nothing they could do about it. The Dayin Tower was intimidated by the threat of the Ink Cicada, and once again ascended. However, their speed was much slower this time. Clearly, they were also afraid of being struck to death by the lightning falling from the sky.
However, Shui Mochan did not send them to their deaths. He quickly pulled out a powerful umbrella Magic artefact. A hazy, water-blue light rippled out from it, reducing the danger to everyone as much as possible.
Along the way, the crowd saw more than one corpse. The way they died was very tragic. Not a single one was intact. Most of them were charred black, and their internal organs and flesh were scattered everywhere by the lightning.
There were only so many opportunities that could be seen in the Immortal Mansion. Among them, the Divine Light Palace and the Hidden Scriptures Pavilion were naturally in high demand in everyone's eyes. However, they were basically monopolized by the big clans. Even if they were not from the big clans or big sects, they were Wandering Cultivators who had long reached the Nascent Soul stage. It was almost impossible for weak cultivators to obtain opportunities.
Besides those two places, there were only so many places of inheritance that the crowd could find. The Thunder Peak was one of them.
Risk and opportunity coexisted. Although this place was surrounded by lightning, there was a Thunder Divine Palace at the top of the Thunder Peak. From the few traces that the crowd found in the Immortal Mansion, the inheritance within was also very impressive.
Although the majority of the people did not have the lightning attribute, the crowd did not mind entering and searching. After all, it was one of the top danger zones in the Immortal Mansion of Radiance. It was impossible that there would only be lightning attribute inheritance within. There would definitely be other treasures as well. As long as they could obtain one or two of them, most of them would not have to worry for the rest of their lives.
However, it was a pity that the dangers of this place were not comparable to the illusory opportunities. Many of the wandering cultivators who came to explore this place had died from the terrifying lightning. There were even a large number of people who were struck to death before they could even see the Lightning Divine Hall at the peak of the lightning mountain.
Today, there were many people who knew about the Thunder Peak. There were even more people who knew about its dangers. There were almost no people who were willing to explore this place.
Previously, it was not as if there were no big clans that had jointly investigated this place. It was said that the Zhao, Han and Liu Families of the Eight Great Clans had joined hands to enter the Thunder Peak. Just when everyone thought that the inheritance of the Thunder Divine Palace would fall into the hands of the three great clans, they all retreated. Furthermore, from the number of people that had left, many of them had lost their lives. Even the successor of the Zhao Family had fallen.
At the same time, the three great clans had ordered their disciples to keep their mouths shut. No one was allowed to divulge the matters at the top of the Thunder Peak, causing the entire matter to be confusing.
At this moment, the people of Dayin Tower were already able to vaguely see the top of the mountain. This also meant that the danger they were facing had increased.
It was also at this moment that Shui Mochan waved his sleeves, and more than a hundred water blue flags fell towards the crowd.
"Use your spiritual energy to operate this defensive array with all your might. I guarantee that nothing will happen to you. Once we reach the top of the mountain, you can leave. If any of you were to encounter any problems, I, Shui Mochan, will definitely make you regret being born into this world!" Shui Mochan said coldly.
"Also, there is a secret technique of Dayin Tower within these array flags. Consider it as a reward for escorting me to the top of the Thunder Peak!"
Carrot and stick, this was the way to use people.
Very quickly, everyone used all their strength and operated more than a hundred array flags, forming a huge water screen that enveloped everyone as they headed towards the top of the mountain.
Thunderbolts continued to explode, and several of them landed on Shui Mochan and the rest's defensive water screen. However, they were still unable to break through this defense, which showed how terrifying this defense was.
An hour later, just as everyone's spiritual energy was about to be depleted under the wild bombardment of the lightning, they finally arrived at the top of the mountain.
Raising their eyes to look, the Thunder Divine Palace was already faintly within their sight, standing at the center of the mountain peak. However, what made everyone despair was that the Thunder Divine Palace was built on a lone island. Surrounding it was a lake with a radius of several tens of kilometers. However, there wasn't any lake water within this lake, but rather purple lightning that continuously exploded, turning into liquid.
If they wanted to enter the Thunder Divine Palace, they would have to pass through this purple lightning lake.
Just as everyone was in shock, a figure quietly circled around behind the people of Dayin Tower, heading towards the other side of the lightning lake. The purple lightning that continuously exploded lit up the dusky sky, and the flickering light shone on the figure's body, causing his black cloak with red clouds to flicker.
