"Ha!"
With a clear roar, the aura of Xiao Yan, who was seated in the air, immediately soared. In a short moment, the aura within Xiao Yan's body had become extremely terrifying.
A couple of breaths later, Xiao Yan's tightly shut eyes were suddenly opened. A pair of dark-black clear eyes immediately shot out two brilliant fire glows.
The flames were like arrows that pierced through the clouds. They instantly pierced through the air and entered the endless darkness.
Xiao Yan's body suddenly shook. His body twisted and he stood up in the air. All the strength in his body poured out. The space around his body was unable to withstand this frightening strength. After an intense distortion, it shattered with a bang.
As he sensed the strength in his body that was several times stronger than it was a month ago, Xiao Yan's face finally revealed a relaxed smile.
After suffering so much, he had finally broken through to the fifth star Half Martial Emperor realm!
He gently clenched his hand. An invisible force gathered in his palm. Xiao Yan did not doubt that as long as he casually waved his hand, the space in front of him would be instantly torn apart!
No one could have imagined that such a frightening destructive strength was actually hidden under this seemingly frail body.
Xiao Yan clenched his hands tightly. His body suddenly shook. His body twisted slightly. Soon after, the cracking sound of bones colliding was emitted from all over his body. A comfortable feeling that he had not felt for a long time slowly rose in Xiao Yan's heart.
"Ha ha, brat, your breakthrough this time around was really not easy!"
Gu You's soft laughter was faintly transmitted. Although he was dissatisfied with Xiao Yan's crazy actions from before, no matter what, Xiao Yan's current increase in strength was real. At this moment, the process was no longer important.
Xiao Yan involuntarily felt a great emotion in his heart when he heard this. He gently nodded and exhaled a long breath of air. He lifted his eyes and looked at the thunderbolts that were still drifting in the empty space. His heart no longer had the fear from the beginning.
A long while later, Xiao Yan slowly withdrew his gaze. However, at the same time, the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile.
With a thought, frightening Spiritual Strength rapidly surged out from between Xiao Yan's eyebrows. It condensed into an incarnation with the strength of a peak advanced three star Half Martial Emperor beside Xiao Yan.
"Ha, this time around, I'll take all these cultivation resources!"
As the mocking laughter sounded, the incarnation beside Xiao Yan suddenly shook. It raised its sharp eyes and looked at the thunderbolts. Without any hesitation, under the control of Xiao Yan's mind, it instantly charged into the hundreds of frightening thunderbolts.
"Crackle …"
As the incarnation charged into the thunderbolts, the sound of thunderbolts exploding was immediately heard. However, Xiao Yan's face did not reveal the slightest bit of surprise.
With a thought, the cultivation technique in the incarnation's body began to circulate. A frightening suction force immediately surged out and pulled the surrounding thunderbolts closer. As the cultivation technique in the incarnation's body circulated, the thunderbolts were continuously absorbed into the incarnation's body. They were rapidly refined and raised the incarnation's strength.
Putting aside the incarnation for the time being, Xiao Yan turned his gaze and looked at the North King.
After a year and a half of being baptized by thunderbolts, the current North King's body was incomparably tough. The pitch-black color on his body appeared even more profound. It was like a solid black hole.
In front of this strange darkness, even sunlight would be swallowed up.
Xiao Yan was able to clearly see everything when he came close. His heart involuntarily felt shocked when he stared at the Northern King's body. This strange darkness had actually caused even his mind to fall into it.
"Good fellow. After a year and a half of continuous devouring, your strength has indeed increased by quite a bit. Who would have thought that even I would almost fall into your trap?"
Sensing the strangeness of the North King's body, Xiao Yan could not help but exclaim. It was only then that he noticed that the North King had stopped devouring the thunderbolts.
Although the North King's body was still emitting that strange suction force that attracted the thunderbolts to his body, it could only revolve around the North King's body. Even if it came into contact with the North King's body, it would be forcefully repelled by the thunderbolts in his body and could not be absorbed.
"This … Could this be the North King's limit?"
Seeing this, Xiao Yan could not help but frown. If that was the case, then the North King's help to Xiao Yan in the future would probably gradually disappear. This could be considered a great loss to Xiao Yan.
After all, the North King's original body was from the Ancient Void Dragon Clan. Even such a terrifying clan could only develop to such a stage after being refined into a puppet. This was truly a great loss to Xiao Yan!
Soon after, however, Xiao Yan swiftly discovered some clues.
Although the North King before him seemed to be unable to devour the thunderbolts anymore, upon closer inspection, one would discover that there was still some thunderbolts in the North King's body that had not been completely devoured. It was being devoured at an extremely slow speed by the North King. However, before the thunderbolts were completely devoured, the North King would not be able to continue devouring them.
In other words, the North King's strength had not reached its limit. He merely needed some time to digest the power he had gained in the past year and a half.
"Boom!"
Xiao Yan had just put down the matter of the Northern King in his heart when an intense explosive sound suddenly sounded within the lightning pool in the empty realm.
The expression on Xiao Yan's face did not become grave when he heard this explosion. Instead, he revealed a joyous smile. This was because this explosion had been transmitted from the avatar.
"Haha, I didn't expect my incarnation to break through so much faster than my original body. However, this is also good. It has saved me a lot of time."
The corner of Xiao Yan's mouth curled into a smile. His five fingers were spread out from deep within his palm. Immediately, a frightening suction force surged from his palm. Following a sharp rushing wind sound, the avatar swiftly broke through the air and arrived in front of Xiao Yan in a flash.
"Mm, not bad. This aura is indeed that of a Four Star Half Martial Emperor. Haha, my incarnation has broken through to become a Four Star Half Martial Emperor. My original body has broken through to become a Five Star Half Martial Emperor. The North King's strength has also increased by quite a bit. I wonder what Mu Han will think if they meet again."
The corner of Xiao Yan's mouth was involuntarily lifted into an extremely icy cold smile as he summarized his gains during these two years within the lightning pool. He recalled Mu Han. Even until now, he still remembered the icy-cold killing intent that Mu Han had revealed on his face when he had attacked him.
If possible, Xiao Yan would definitely not mind letting Mu Han die by his hands.
"Heh, alright. I've stayed here for two years. Now, it's time to leave …"
Withdrawing his thoughts, Xiao Yan turned around and recalled the North King and his incarnation. His body moved. Behind him, Xiao Jin, who had transformed into a huge dragon, quickly flew towards the Void Lightning Pool's passageway.
A moment later, Xiao Yan frowned as he stood in the void. He felt a little troubled in his heart.
Just as Gu Li had said, the Void Lightning Pool's passageway would automatically close after half a year. Currently, he was unable to leave this place.
Xiao Yan's eyes were grave as he looked at the huge lightning pillar in front of him. He felt helpless in his heart. In front of this lightning pillar, even his Void Great Dao would not be able to bring him out of this place.
"Sigh, Old Gu, I'm afraid that I'll have to trouble you this time around."
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly in his heart. In the end, he still placed his hopes on Gu You. After all, only Gu You had the means to subdue this lightning pillar in front of him.
Gu You chuckled upon hearing this. He did not reveal himself. Instead, he laughed mockingly within Xiao Yan's body.
"Hee hee, brat, don't look for this old man for such matters. This old man will not help you in this Void Lightning Pool. You can ask this little fellow beside you for help. Ha ha!"
Gu You's words were not only directed at Xiao Yan. Hence, Xiao Jin, who was beside Xiao Yan, also heard it clearly. Subsequently, he saw Xiao Yan's slightly surprised gaze and immediately raised his huge head. It was as though he was proudly waiting for Xiao Yan's request.
Xiao Yan could only helplessly curl his lips in response. He rolled his eyes at Xiao Jin. Only then did Xiao Yan curl his lips and say, "Alright, stop playing.
I know that you have the ability to do so. I know that you are powerful. Alright, now is not the time to play around. If you want to play, you should wait until we get out of here! "
Xiao Jin could only lower his head in boredom after hearing Xiao Yan's urging words. He ceased procrastinating as his enormous body slowly twisted. He widened his dragon mouth and emitted a low and deep dragon roar at the lightning pillar, which was many times thicker than him.
In the next moment, following the distortion of space, the lightning pool slowly appeared in front of Xiao Jin. The active thunderbolts within it had also completely disappeared. With Xiao Jin present, they really did not dare to act as rashly as they usually did.
Xiao Yan involuntarily praised Xiao Jin upon seeing this. Xiao Jin immediately roared out in joy. Xiao Yan also laughed softly. Soon after, he entered the lightning pool tunnel with Xiao Jin and swiftly flew out of the tunnel.
