Treasure on the Puppet's Body

After taking out all the Puppets, Lei Qi's Dou Qi was nearly depleted.

Without delay, he hurriedly began cultivating.

"Zzzzt, zzzzt."

At that moment, the power of lightning continuously filled his body.

After a battle, abundant Dou Qi poured into his body. The feeling was simply incredible.

A day passed. Aside from eating some dry rations midway through, he spent the entire time cultivating and recovering.

His intention of heading straight to the next level also faded considerably. Before breaking through to Da Dou Shi, Lei Qi felt it was better to be cautious.

In any case, he had nearly ten years to cultivate here as much as he pleased. There was no need to rush. Moreover, for members of the Dou God Clan, once the power of their bloodline began to take effect, their cultivation would rise in a straight, rapid climb.

Another three months passed, and through constant battles, Lei Qi finally raised his cultivation to the Da Dou Shi level.

At the Da Dou Shi level, one could form Dou Qi into armor, release Dou Qi externally, and condense it into a solid, diamond-shaped form.

As for Dou Ling, they could condense Dou Qi into solid objects.

After reaching Dou Wang, one could even form Dou Qi wings and draw upon a small amount of energy from the surrounding space. They could soar through the sky!

After reaching Dou Emperor, one could form Dou Qi wings and draw upon large amounts of external energy of the same attribute. At the peak of Dou Emperor, one could even remain suspended in the air briefly without external aid.

After reaching Dou Zong, one could remain suspended in the air without external aid and begin to grasp the power of space.

Upon reaching Dou Venerate, one could tear apart space!

After reaching Peak Dou Venerate, there was a massive threshold. Especially for those blessed with the bloodline of the Dou God Clan, many could only stop there in despair.

Of course, although those at Peak Dou Venerate could not directly cross into the Saint Level, they could undergo nine transformations of Dou Qi. Once their Dou Qi had completed nine transformations, they could advance into a "Half-Saint."

Though it was only a Half-Saint, the inclusion of the word "Saint" made it an entirely different concept from Peak Dou Venerate.

The gap between them could be called the difference between heaven and earth!

Half-Saints were further divided into Low Half-Saint, Mid Half-Saint, and High Half-Saint.

Beyond Half-Saint was Dou Sheng.

Once one's cultivation reached Dou Sheng, one would become a true powerhouse in this world!

With every gesture, Dou Sheng powerhouses could collapse mountains, split the earth, and shatter space. Opening up a habitable space within Void Space was the mark of a Dou Sheng powerhouse.

There was likewise a dividing line among Dou Shengs. After reaching the sixth star, one would gain the ability to shift through space.

In just over a year, he had gone from Dou Zhe to Da Dou Shi.

This showed just how effective this place was.

At this point, Lei Qi chose to begin heading toward the next level.

The strongest opponents on the first level had only been some Dou Shi Puppets. The items they dropped were merely some Profound-tier cultivation methods and Dou Skills. However, nearly all of them were suited to the lightning attribute.

According to the clan chief and the First Elder, the entrance to the second level was located in the central region. He had been making his way toward the center all along.

However, this world was even larger than Lei Qi had imagined!

It took him nearly another month to reach the entrance to the second level.

Upon successfully arriving at the second level, Lei Qi found the same endless flatlands before him. It seemed that aside from Puppets and himself, there were no other living creatures here.

Hmm. I wonder how that kid Lei Dong is doing now?

Lei Qi did not leave the exit. Instead, he chose to stay here and cultivate.

He wanted to see whether Lei Dong would reach the second level, or...

Half a year later.

Lei Qi's cultivation had already risen to the five-star Da Dou Shi level.

Yet there was still no movement at the exit. In the end, he gave up waiting and left.

However, Lei Qi likely never expected that just as he left this place, Lei Dong arrived there as well.

Compared to Lei Qi, he was still somewhat slower.

However, by the time Lei Dong arrived here, his cultivation had likewise reached Da Dou Shi.

Lei Qi wandered around, searching.

As he defeated more and more Puppets, he gradually discovered that these Puppets did not merely help improve one's combat experience. They also carried many valuable items.

Moreover, these were "antiques" from the Dou Qi Continent!

Anything left behind from ancient times was undoubtedly good stuff.

"Zzzt."

"Zzzt."

Hard work did not betray those who put in the effort. Before long, he encountered a Da Dou Shi Puppet.

"Riiip!!!"

The moment the Puppet saw him, it did not waste a word before sending a bolt of lightning crashing down.

"Boom!"

Lei Qi reacted quickly enough. As that lightning strike descended, a suit of Dou Qi armor had already condensed around his body.

After seeing the black crack appear on the ground, Lei Qi swept his spear horizontally!

"Whoosh!"

"Bang!"

However, unlike the completely defenseless Dou Shi Puppets, this Da Dou Shi-level Puppet knew to protect its head.

After blocking Lei Qi's spear, the Da Dou Shi Puppet simultaneously threw a punch at him.

"Whoosh!"

The fist carried a fierce gust of wind as it flew straight at his face.

Lei Qi instantly released his grip on the spear and threw out a punch of his own.

"Bang!"

The two fists collided, and a muffled boom rang out in an instant.

The next moment, both Lei Qi and the Da Dou Shi Puppet staggered backward.

The Puppet casually tossed aside the spear and charged at him once more.

Since he did not understand spear techniques, the spear really was rather awkward to use.

"Thunderous Dance!"

Dou Qi rapidly gathered, and a streak of lightning shot straight out!

However, this Da Dou Shi Puppet was no pushover. It did not only know how to fight at close range.

Lei Qi used a Dou Skill, and it unleashed a Dou Skill as well.

"Boom!!"

The two forces collided once again.

Although Lei Qi had only grasped perhaps ten to twenty percent of Thunderous Dance, an Earth-tier Dou Skill was naturally not something this Puppet's Dou Skill could compare to.

It was instantly blasted backward.

Seeing the Da Dou Shi Puppet knocked back, Lei Qi took the opportunity to pursue it.

In some respects, these battle-experienced Puppets were undoubtedly an ingenious "design!"

"Bang, bang, bang!!"

After closing in, Lei Qi threw punch after punch, each filled with dense lightning power, continuously smashing into it.

"Bang, bang!!"

Likewise, the Da Dou Shi Puppet kept throwing punches as well.

But Lei Qi did not defend. Instead, every punch struck its head!

"Boom!"

After a barrage of blows, the Puppet's head finally shattered.

After dealing with the Puppet, a Dou Skill manual appeared before him.

"Raging Sparks Set the Prairie Ablaze."

This was a low-level Earth-tier fire-attributed Dou Skill.

Moreover, it could be imbued into the body of a spear.

Since it was a Dou Skill, Lei Qi himself could cultivate it as well. As it happened, he possessed the lightning-fire attribute, and his fire attribute even carried a trace of the wood attribute. Cultivating this Dou Skill would make him even more formidable.

In the original world, even Feng Qing'er of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix could cultivate two attributes. Naturally, he could as well.

After all, he did not think he was inferior to her in any way!
