Because of its purity, the violent lightning-attribute power surged into Meng Chen's meridians and coursed through his body.

Holy crap!

This caused Meng Chen's body to swell and ache terribly, giving him the feeling that he was about to explode and die!

Meng Chen began to break out in a cold sweat, and his face even turned pale.

Holy crap, why didn't the original novel describe accepting Soul Beast sacrifices as such a painful experience?

Although Tang San was heartbroken when he accepted Xiao Wu's sacrifice, there was no physical torment involved!

Damn, what an unreliable world.

Meng Chen couldn't help but curse inwardly. His body was getting hotter and hotter, even turning red, as if he were a piece of iron being forged. If this continued, he was afraid that he would explode and die.

The danger of death, however, ignited Meng Chen's ferocity.

How could I possibly die here? Since I've transmigrated, I should live it to the fullest!

Meng Chen immediately activated his Soul Power, and four Soul Ring appeared outside his body, two purple and two black. Meng Chen's own Soul Power circulated along his meridians, resisting the lightning attribute power surging into his body.

However, level 50 Soul Power was like a firefly compared to the bright moon in the face of this enormous lightning attribute power.

However, Meng Chen's Martial Soul is also the Thunder Hell Vine, giving Meng Chen a resistance to lightning-attribute power far exceeding that of ordinary Soul Master.

Above the sky, the will of the Thunder Hell Vine had not dissipated. It looked at Meng Chen's two purple and two black Soul Ring with great satisfaction.

Although it was just a Soul Beast, it had actually come into contact with many humans and had some understanding of human systems.

For humans, this level of two yellow and two purple Soul Ring is the optimal ratio. Absorbing Soul Ring beyond this age limit carries the risk of the body exploding and dying.

But this human actually started with Millennium Soul Ring?

Thunder Hell Vine became increasingly convinced that they had not made the wrong choice.

However, the Thunder Hell Vine did not reduce or stop the transmission of the violent lightning attribute power; instead, it intensified its force, surging in frantically!

This caused Meng Chen immense pain.

But Meng Chen was fearless, and he did his best to keep his mind clear.

Just kidding! Before I transmigrated, I was a super-working geezer, working 996 hours a day but earning 3,000 yuan a month. Would I be afraid of pain?

Amidst the pain and torment, crimson light rushed into Meng Chen's body, and his aura grew stronger and stronger.

As for the golden lightning patterns, they condensed into a fist-sized golden ball of light in mid-air, containing a rich life force, like a baby with vigorous vitality.

That was the very essence of the Thunder Hell Vine, and everything about it was condensed within this ball of light.

Under the illumination of the light, the violent lightning power suddenly became gentle and peaceful, no longer swift, and slowly merged into Meng Chen's meridians and Soul Power, causing his aura to rise to an unprecedented height in an instant!

"Buzz!"

Around Meng Chen, the fifth Soul Ring was slowly taking shape. It was a deep black Soul Ring, and as soon as it appeared, the other four Soul Ring resonated with it.

As the fifth Soul Ring was completed, another silver-white light appeared on Meng Chen's right hand and then disappeared in a flash.

"Sizzle--"

An hour later, silver lightning flashed frequently on Meng Chen's body, making him look like an electric man, before subsiding after a while.

Level 55!

Meng Chen clenched his fist, feeling the surging Soul Power within his body.

To my utter surprise, I jumped to level 55 in one go.

After Meng Chen completely absorbed the Soul Ring, the golden light in the air suddenly contracted, condensed into a seed, and then fell, which Meng Chen caught with his hand.

Just as Meng Chen reached out and caught it, the voice of Thunder Hell Vine rang in his mind:

"Human, these are the last words I can say to you. You must help my seed of reincarnation break through the 100,000-year limit, or you will explode and die, because I have already condensed the lightning attribute power of the entire Thunder Pool and left it in your body."

Meng Chen was stunned upon hearing this.

Blanch!

Good heavens, no wonder it was so dangerous when you accepted the sacrifice; you were planting a landmine, weren't you?

No wonder he suddenly acted like a street vendor; he was pretending to be Tang and tricking me.

This is why the Thunder Hell Vine chose Meng Chen; only those with the Thunder Hell Vine Martial Soul can withstand the power of thunder entering their bodies.

If he didn't have a backup plan, why would Thunder Hell Vine trust humans?

Meng Chen was somewhat amused and exasperated. He reached out and waved his hand, a flash of silver-white lightning appearing in his palm, revealing a long, thin object.

This thing is five meters long and has a silvery-white sheen. From a distance, it looks like a skeleton, but upon closer inspection, you can see that it is actually a vine.

It was attached to Meng Chen's right hand bones and integrated into his flesh; it was the External Soul Bone of the Thunder Hell Vine — the Thunder Hell Vine Whip!

Meng Chen casually waved his hand, and immediately thunder roared and lightning flashed.

He casually struck a piece of exposed Granite, shattering the hard Granite into pieces, the fragments charred black, as if struck by lightning.

Goodness, that's quite powerful!

Meng Chen was extremely satisfied.

He looked around and saw that the thunderstorm in Ten Thousand Thunder Valley had completely disappeared, leaving only pitch-black soil and rock walls in the entire valley.

Without the destructive power of thunderstorms, perhaps by next spring, this place will be teeming with life, covered with vegetation.

Meng Chen sighed briefly before looking at the seed of the Thunder Hell Vine in his hand.

The seeds have a deep purplish-gold color, and you can feel a faint electric current when you hold them in your hand.

Meng Chen took out a box, carefully put the seeds into the Bone Dragon Ring, and then turned and walked out of Ten Thousand Thunder Valley.

Whether or not there is Ten Thousand Thunder Valley, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect remains the same. The only difference is Yu Yuanzhen. When he learned that Meng Chen had actually absorbed the Thunder Hell Vine as a Soul Ring, he was so shocked that he almost dropped his teacup.

His ancestors had brought a bunch of Soul Douluo and Soul Saint with them, and Yu Yuanzhen himself had faced the terror of the Thunder Hell Vine, so he found it hard to believe that such a god-like thing could be annihilated.

Yu Yuanzhen originally thought that Meng Chen would come to him for help to get a suitable lightning-attribute Soul Beast after he finished his cultivation. He never expected that Meng Chen would solve the problem so easily, even though his entire sect had tried their best to solve it.

That's really impressive!

Could it be his master who intervened?

Thinking about this, Yu Yuanzhen suddenly realized that he had underestimated Ye Xishui back then.

Yu Yuanzhen became even more enthusiastic towards Meng Chen, praising him, "Nephew, you are indeed a genius. That Thunder Hell Vine has been entrenched in our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect for hundreds of years. Successive sect leaders have thought of eradicating it but never dared to take action. I never expected that you would solve our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's century-old problem with just one move. I am truly grateful."

He paused, then added, "If there's anything my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect can do to help you in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."

This time, Yu Yuanzhen didn't even use the name "Meng Chen," and directly addressed him as his nephew.

Moreover, ignoring the fact that Thunder Hell Vine and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect had not committed any offenses for hundreds of years, and that Thunder Hell Vine was not even within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's territory, they directly claimed that Meng Chen had done Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect a great favor in order to curry favor with Meng Chen.

This was so cheesy that Meng Chen got goosebumps all over, and he hurriedly returned the greeting. "Thank Sect Master Yu."
