Thunder Induction Cultivation
Looking at the raging silver lightning pool ahead, Purple-Red Purple Extreme Annihilation Flame instantly surged out from Lin Ming's body, transforming into a solid flame shield that completely enveloped his body.
Xiao Yi Xian and Elder Yao followed closely behind, their powerful Dou Qi surging from their bodies to form a strong protective barrier on their skin.
"Sizzle...!"
The instant Lin Ming rushed into the Thunder Pool, it was as if cold water had been poured into a calm oil pan. The previously "mild" lightning at the edge of the Thunder Pool suddenly erupted! Countless silver lightning snakes, as if provoked, emitted piercing shrieks and struck the intruder fiercely from all directions!
However, these violent lightning bolts, which were enough to easily injure or even kill low-level Dou Zong, were like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun when they came into contact with the Purple Extreme Annihilation Flame on Lin Ming's body. They only produced a series of faint muffled sounds before being instantly burned into nothingness and annihilated into nothingness by the Heavenly Flames filled with destructive power!
Although the power of thunder is domineering and formidable, it is still far inferior when facing the most violent flame in the world— the Heavenly Flames.
And this is precisely Lin Ming's greatest reliance and ability to dare to enter the Void Lightning Pool, which even Dou Venerate fears, with his Dou Zong body!
The same applies to Xiao Yi Xian and Elder Yao.
Xiao Yi Xian's body was surrounded by gray Dou Qi, revealing the aura of Five-Star Dou Venerate. The lightning that struck her Dou Qi shield only stirred up ripples before it could not penetrate any further.
Elder Yao was even more relaxed. His powerful Dou Qi, at the Peak Nine-Revolution Dou Venerate, surged slightly, and the approaching Silver Lightning dissipated as if it had hit an invisible wall.
Seeing that Lin Ming and the other two had landed safely in the Thunder Pool without any surprises and stood firmly, the black Giant Dragon outside also burst out with a burst of bright light, and then quickly shrank, transforming into the burly human figure of Hei Qing.
He crossed his legs in mid-air and sat directly in mid-air, his eyes like torches, staring intently at the three figures within the Thunder Pool, not daring to relax his vigilance in the slightest...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Upon entering the Thunder Pool, the thunderous roar reached its peak, as if the entire world trembled under its furious howl.
In the ocean of thunder, countless bolts of lightning, resembling giant silver Giant Python, continuously surged from beneath the "lake's" surface, exploding in all directions, and an aura of destruction permeated every inch of space.
Protected by the Heavenly Flames, Lin Ming stood safely amidst the lightning.
Perhaps it was the aura of the Heavenly Flames that instilled instinctive fear in them, but the surrounding lightning, after its initial agitation, gradually subsided considerably. Although lightning still struck continuously, it no longer possessed the frenzied momentum of its previous attack. This gave Lin Ming more room to observe and act.
Sensing the surrounding lightning power, Lin Ming found the energy here to be quite concentrated, but it didn't seem to have achieved the effect Lin Ming expected. After hesitating for a moment, Lin Ming lifted his feet and, braving the occasional arcs of lightning, began to carefully make his way deeper into the lightning pool.
Xiao Yi Xian and Elder Yao followed closely behind, Protector him.
After walking slowly for about sixty or seventy feet in the Thunder Pool, Lin Ming finally stopped again.
The power of lightning here is several times stronger than that at the edges! The silver lightning has almost solidified, and the oppressive aura permeating the air has become clearly visible, giving Lin Ming a faint sense of pressure.
"If we continue deeper, the power of the thunder will likely become even more terrifying... According to Elder Zhu Li, even Heavenly Flames might not be able to completely withstand the deepest part..." Lin Ming pondered, his eyes grave.
This Void Lightning Pool has accumulated the power of thunder over countless years, and the power of its core area must be of the Earth Grade world-destroying. If one is not careful and triggers the full-force backlash of the Thunder Pool's origin, even if he possesses Heavenly Flames, he will probably be blasted into nothingness in an instant, leaving not even ashes!
"The power of thunder here is already immense enough, so let's stay here..." After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Ming made his decision.
Having made his decision, Lin Ming no longer hesitated and sat Cross-legged -legged in the void about seventy feet from the edge of the Thunder Pool. He calmed his Qi and Blood, which had been churning from the shock of the thunder, and with a wave of his hand, three figures appeared from his Storage Ring, hovering in front of him like three iron towers.
It is Puppet One, Ice Puppet, and Frost Puppet!
The moment the three Puppet appeared, their unique material and the strange fluctuations within them that could Thunder Induction immediately acted as if three magnets had been thrown into a pot of boiling oil!
"Boom boom boom boom--!"
The previously "calm" surrounding lightning field instantly erupted into chaos! Countless thick Silver Lightning, like a swarm of sharks that had smelled blood, abruptly turned away, abandoning Lin Ming and his companions, and then frantically and overwhelmingly bombarded the three Heavenly Demon Puppet!
The force of the attack was several times stronger than when Lin Ming and his group had stormed in! One after another, enormous lightning Giant Python, each nearly ten or even dozens of feet long, bared their fangs and claws, carrying an aura of annihilation, and crashed down on the bodies of the three Puppet!
However, faced with this thunderous torrent powerful enough to leave even High-Grade Dou Venerate in a sorry state, the three Heavenly Demon Puppet remained completely still, like three ancient reefs! And those seemingly raging thunderbolts, upon contact with the special metal on their body surfaces, were like Hundred Rivers Return to Sea, or water droplets seeping into a sponge, instantly swallowed up and disappeared!
Within the Thunder Pool, raging thunder danced and silver snakes darted about! Centered on the three Heavenly Demon Puppet, three enormous Thunder Vortex seemed to form, continuously drawing upon the vast thunderous power within the Void Lightning Pool!
Under the continuous bombardment and infusion of this frenzied thunder, the originally somewhat dark bodies of the three Heavenly Demon Puppet began to gradually emit a faint, almost imperceptible light. The aura emanating from their bodies was also slowly but surely increasing!
The rate of enhancement is indeed much slower than directly using high-grade Pill Lightning for tempering. After all, although the total amount of lightning power here is vast, the individual power of these Silver Lightning in the peripheral areas, apart from the core area, is inferior in quality to true three- or even Four-color Pill Lightning.
However, Lin Ming was quite satisfied with this slow pace, and even welcomed it.
If he were to rely on refining High-Grade Pills to attract Pill Lightning and strengthen these three Heavenly Demon Puppet, not to mention the terrifying amount of rare medicinal herbs required, the arduous task of continuously refining pills Thunder Induction would probably exhaust him to the point of collapse—it would be completely not worth the effort. How much easier and more comfortable is it to simply toss the Puppet into this natural "power bank"?
"At this rate of continuous absorption... within half a month, the weakest puppet Puppet One, should be able to be strengthened to the limit of the materials used in this body... as for Frost Puppet and Ice Puppet..." Lin Ming looked at the three figures standing calmly in the sea of lightning, their auras steadily increasing, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Lin Ming seemed to already see the sheer awe he would feel when he led this powerful Heavenly Demon Puppet Legion, a force capable of shaking the Middle Continent, in the near future!
So, with a smile, Lin Ming watched as the three Heavenly Demon Puppet greedily devoured the surrounding immense lightning power like bottomless pits, their auras steadily increasing. He was immediately filled with joy and anticipation.
Of course, while the Puppet was being upgraded, Lin Ming didn't let himself be idle. Looking around at this world of dazzling silver light and deafening thunder, a bold and tempting idea surged into Lin Ming's mind.
"The power of thunder here is inexhaustible, one of the purest and most violent energies in the world. I possess Heavenly Flames, which can perfectly restrain and refine it. If I can absorb this power of thunder for my own use, not only will my cultivation advance by leaps and bounds, but my body, which has been stagnating at the Dou Ling level due to the completion of the body-refining technique <Purple Lightning Radiant Body Technique> I obtained in my early years, may also be thoroughly tempered and reach a higher level!"
Before Lin Ming entered the Inner Academy, he received a reward for being among the top five in the Inner Academy. Upon entering the academy's Library Pavilion, Lin Ming ultimately chose the body-refining technique, <Purple Lightning Radiant Body Technique>.
This method involves absorbing the power of lightning to temper the physical body. Lin Ming once used this method to temper his physical body to a level comparable to the Dou Ling Peak, which provided him with considerable assistance at the time.
However, as his strength increased, facing battles at the level of Dou Emperor, then Dou Zong, and now even Dou Venerate, his physical strength had become woefully inadequate.
Now, with so much lightning here, I wonder if it will allow this body-refining technique to break through its limits and further enhance my physical body.
Of course, it means I can't break through the limits to improve my physical body, but I can still use the power of lightning refined by Heavenly Flames to improve my cultivation.
Furthermore, during this refining process, the lightning can purify and condense the Dou Qi to an extreme degree, so there is no need to worry about the Dou Qi becoming weak due to rapid improvement.
The opportunity is right in front of us; how can we let it slip away?
A glint flashed in Lin Ming's eyes, and he no longer hesitated. Taking a deep breath, he immediately formed a profound hand seal in front of him, immersing his mind in his body and fully activating the Purple Extreme Annihilation Flame within him.
"Boom!"
Drawn by the force, the Purple Extreme Annihilation Flame surged forth from Lin Ming's body like an awakened volcano. However, this time, the flames did not fully expand to form a protective shield. Instead, most of them condensed in Lin Ming's hands, transforming into two constantly rotating and compressing purplish-red Flame Vortex.
At the center of the vortex, a powerful suction force emanates, while simultaneously containing the domineering will of the Heavenly Flames to refine all things.
"Thunder Induction!"
Lin Ming let out a low shout, Soul Power, like an invisible tentacle, cautiously reached out. It wasn't an attack, but rather a provocation and guidance, as it gently touched a stray Silver Lightning, about the thickness of an arm, not far away.
