That was right. Whatever could excite and stir such anticipation in the World-Ending Thunder Dragon was bound to be extraordinary. It would surely gain a great deal from it, and that was good news for Ling Tian and the others too. The better it recovered, the stronger it would become, and the more help it could give them. So they followed the World-Ending Thunder Dragon's lead. It didn't take long for them to find a powerful cloud of lightning.
It was likely Lightning Power left behind when a Saint-level cultivator perished. Its might was astonishing, even somewhat greater than that of the World-Ending Lightning Tribulation. That also meant refining it would greatly aid the World-Ending Thunder Dragon's recovery, especially since it contained a trace of a Saint's Origin Power.
Before Ling Tian and the others had even drawn close to the cloud, they felt an extremely violent, destructive aura. It made their hearts tremble, but rather than frighten them, the sensation filled them with excitement. They knew that the more a bolt of lightning shook them, the more powerful it was—and the more the World-Ending Thunder Dragon would recover after obtaining it.
While Ling Tian and the others were marveling at it, the World-Ending Thunder Dragon had already transformed into a streak of lightning and shot toward the cloud. A series of crackles followed, and an even more violent, savage aura spread out. A hint of anger could be felt within it; clearly, the cloud of lightning was resisting the World-Ending Thunder Dragon.
But the World-Ending Thunder Dragon truly was the forefather of lightning. After refining some of the Origin Power within it, it quickly subdued the cloud. Then, naturally, it absorbed it with ease. Ling Tian, Po Tian, and the others could clearly sense its aura growing noticeably stronger.
