Great Sage Benlei: I've Got It, I've Got It!

"It seems the Rushing Thunder Saber King failed his first attempt at breaking through?"

The Great Sage Xueyou laughed gleefully, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up slightly when he thought of how that guy had mocked him a few days ago.

"Xueyou, there's no need to laugh so happily. That person provided three top-grade Dao Comprehension Pill."

Great Sage Xuanyi looked completely indifferent, as if it were none of his business.

This greatly displeased the Great Sage Xueyou, who was about to speak when the Great Sage Zhexian the Immortal Realm, who was holding a sword, blocked his way with his sword. "Hey, we're all here to watch the show, let's not start fighting among ourselves."

"Snort."

Great Sage Xueyou sneered, "Who says the Daoist priests of Supreme Purity Holy Land are on our side?"

Great Sage Xuanyi did not refute, but simply stroked his beard and waited quietly.

In contrast to their composure, the cultivators of the Thunderclap Mountain Villa all wore expressions of anxiety.

Breakthroughs are like this: they succeed the first time, then decline the second time, and eventually fail the third time. If you fail the second time, then you're in big trouble.

Seeing the dejected expressions on the faces of his juniors, King Hongchui was furious. "You bunch of brats! Ninth Brother didn't fail, so why are you all looking so miserable? Aren't you cursing him to fail his breakthrough? All of you, smile!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present at the Thunderclap Mountain Villa revealed smiles that were more like grimaces.

Seeing this, Elder Liu wanted to offer some advice, but he didn't know how, so he could only wait and see.

After hearing the news from the palace, many cultivators in Unrivaled City were gloating. After all, seeing a high-ranking Great Sage make a fool of himself was something they would never experience in their lives.

Some people even set up betting odds on how many more times the Rushing Thunder Saber King would fail before finally giving up.

Compared to the outside world, the Rushing Thunder Saber King inside the courtyard was now immersed in his sea of consciousness, constantly observing the True Essence of the Thunder Dao on the thunder talisman. Last time, he was only half a step away from comprehending the True Essence of the Thunder Dao.

This was a feeling he hadn't experienced in hundreds of years, and the Rushing Thunder Saber King firmly believed that he would finally comprehend the True Essence of the Thunder Dao this time.

His resolve gradually hardened, and his aura subtly began to change.

Chu Feng completely ignored the Rushing Thunder Saber King and continued his life as before. Although he did not go out of the palace to play, he took two little maids to stroll around the palace.

The two little girls rediscovered their long-lost joy and treated the place as their own home.

This scene was witnessed by the world, who were at a loss for words to judge this great Great Sage, and could only wait for the final result.

Time flies.

Eighty-one days have passed since the Rushing Thunder Saber King entered Chu Feng's palace. For the Nirvana Realm cultivator, this amount of time is insignificant.

On this day, the thunder talisman in the Rushing Thunder Saber King's sea of consciousness suddenly disappeared, eventually transforming into a seed of Dao that landed in the Rushing Thunder Saber King's mind.

In that instant, Rushing Thunder Saber King had a sudden realization. He opened his eyes abruptly and shouted, "I understand! I have finally grasped the True Essence of the Great Dao!"

Just as Chen Qianqian was about to leave, she saw this scene, tilted her head and looked at him. "Grandpa, are you alright?"

Rushing Thunder Saber King: Σ(°△°)

Chu Feng looked at the other person's sweaty face and said with a smile, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on comprehending the True Essence of the Great Dao."

Rushing Thunder Saber King then came to his senses and bowed to Chu Feng, saying, "This student thanks you for your guidance, sir. I will never forget your great kindness."

"Ding! The host has guided the Rushing Thunder Saber King to comprehend the True Essence of the Great Dao. Reward: True Essence of the Great Dao +10."

Upon receiving the system notification, Chu Feng smiled and said, "No need for thanks. Let's seize this opportunity to break through to the Half-Saint Realm."

"Promise."

At this point, the Rushing Thunder Saber King could no longer suppress the surging spiritual power within him.

After listening to their conversation, Chen Qianqian turned to Chu Feng and said, "Master, if he calls you 'Master,' then doesn't that mean he should call me 'Senior Sister'?"

"No problem."

Chu Feng said with a smile.

"Ah, I actually have such an old junior brother."

A hint of frustration appeared on Chen Qianqian's face.

Chu Feng gently rubbed her head. "You don't have to admit it, but when you go out to play in the future, you can't brag about having a Half-Saint junior brother."

Chen Qianqian's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this. "That's right, how could I have forgotten about that?"

The two's seemingly indifferent conversation did not affect Rushing Thunder Saber King's breakthrough.

Several hours later, the aura emanating from the Rushing Thunder Saber King shot straight into the sky like a volcanic eruption. The powerful aura contained a True Essence of the Thunder Dao, which shook the entire Unrivaled City.

At this moment, the entire Unrivaled City seemed to freeze, and all living beings turned their gazes toward the direction of the palace.

After a long while, in a corner of the palace.

The Great Sage Xueyou exclaimed in disbelief, "Beast Rushing Thunder, you actually succeeded! This... and it hasn't even been a hundred days?"

Great Sage Xuanyi smiled and said, "This must be what they call fate. Perhaps the one who guided him was truly a Saint."

The Great Sage: "..."

In contrast to the astonishment of the Great Sage, the palace where the cultivators of the Thunderclap Mountain Villa were located had become a sea of joy.

"It's done!"

"Our ancestor succeeded!"

"..."

King Hongchui murmured, "Ancestor, do you see? Our generation has not disgraced you."

Looking at the aura of a Great Sage, Elder Liu couldn't help but sigh, "I never imagined that in my lifetime I would be able to personally participate in such a dreamlike event. This time, my life has not been in vain. Someone, go and fetch the Thunder Duke's Saint Hammer!"

As the Great Sage Benlei broke through to the next realm, tribulation clouds appeared in the sky. The Great Sage of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion saw this and all showed bitter smiles.

This time they've really gone too far. When that lightning tribulation strikes, their palace will likely be reduced to ruins, and even the entire Unrivaled City will be affected.

Just then, the Great Sage of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion suddenly saw a person slowly flying out of the palace and heading towards the lightning tribulation.

This scene left the two Great Sage dumbfounded, and the cultivators in Unrivaled City were also stunned. In all their lives, this was the first time they had ever seen someone undergoing tribulation flying towards thunderclouds.

Great Sage Benlei was unusually calm at this moment. He instinctively felt that the lightning tribulation could help him reach a higher level, so he flew towards the tribulation clouds without thinking.

"Brother, this old man's getting a bit cocky."

Great Sage Golden Wing couldn't help but mutter a word.

Chu Feng smiled and said, "It seems those two lightning talismans worked."

Great Sage Golden Wing asked curiously, "Brother, could you explain in detail the wondrous uses of those two thunder talismans?"

Chu Feng said, "Those two lightning talismans were created by an unspeakable being, symbolizing the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning."

hiss...

Upon hearing the words "cannot be spoken, "the Great Sage Golden Wing instinctively gasped, muttering, "Can you tell me, is there anything you don't understand?"

Chu Feng shook his head. "I don't know either."

Great Sage Golden Wing: "..."

Crackle!

As the two were talking, the first lightning tribulation descended from the sky and struck the Great Sage Benlei who was flying towards the tribulation clouds, without affecting Unrivaled City at all.

"This Rushing Thunder is truly a man of principle," remarked a Great Sage from the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

Another Great Sage said, "Indeed, this was done with great integrity."

The tribulation continued, and the cultivators, seeing the Great Sage Benlei of Thunder in the thunderclouds unharmed, changed their previous doubts into awe.

Great Sage Xuanyi couldn't help but sigh, "I never expected Rushing Thunder to have taken such an extraordinary path; this tribulation of lightning has had little effect on him."

The other Great Sage, upon hearing this, felt only envy, for they had faced near-death experiences when they underwent their tribulations.

Great Sage Benlei bathed in the lightning tribulation, a lightning talisman gradually took shape in his mind.

After nine bolts of heavenly lightning, the lightning talisman finally took shape.

Great Sage Benlei sensed the disappearance of the tribulation clouds, a regretful expression appeared on his face. It was a pity that if there were nine more, he could have deduced the remaining lightning talisman, thus allowing him to go further on the path to enlightenment.

He did not linger in the sky, but returned to the palace to await the arrival of the strange phenomenon.

The moment the Great Sage Benlei landed, purple qi qi appeared from the east, and a strange phenomenon descended from the sky, enveloping the entire palace.

The Spiritual Qi in Unrivaled City was several times denser than usual at this moment.

The higher-ups at the Myriad Treasures Pavilion immediately sent their disciples into the Myriad Treasures Pavilion to cultivate and share in this extraordinary phenomenon.

Chu Feng gave the group a look, signaling them to begin their cultivation.

The entire Unrivaled City fell silent as people began to share the strange phenomenon that had occurred in the sky.

Three days later, the strange phenomenon disappeared.

A familiar mechanical voice echoed in Chu Feng's mind once again.

"The Great Sage Golden Wing, the Great Sage Benlei, and the Bing Yan have each grasped a bit of the True Essence of the Great Dao; the host's True Essence of the Great Dao +30."

Upon hearing this voice, Chu Feng's lips curled into a slight smile: That feels good...
