The Name of Gunther
After leaving Thunder Abyss, Rog returned to the summit of Thunder Sacred Mountain. Standing atop the towering peak, he looked down at the tiny hills below and felt an indescribable sense of freedom and exhilaration.
After exhaling, Rog began his descent. On the way up, the black electric snakes in the sea of lightning had caused him some minor trouble, but now he could completely ignore their attacks.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." After descending the mountain, Rog quickly discovered a dark blue Metal Castle. It turned out to be Haidisi, who was idly cultivating inside the metal Life Castle.
"It won't be long. Where to next? Shall we go see other places?" Haidisi looked at Rog expectantly. As long as she traveled with this man, the world was vast, and wherever they went, she could feel a long-lost excitement in her heart.
"There's no particular place I'd like to go. Since we started from the Eastern Continent, let's travel all the way to the Western Continent and then return to the Infernal Realm." Although I had considered gifting him the Voidbreaker Spear, there was no rush. After all, for Lord Aiken, a good weapon was just icing on the cake, not a necessity.
"Alright, let's set off then." Haidisi's eyes lit up, and she created Water Element Divine Clone to ride the Metallic Lifeform form. The two of them began to travel around this Divine Lightning Plane once again.
Although the Divine Lightning Plane only has two continents, each continent is quite large, and the Orange Sea contains many islands. In terms of population, it is not much smaller than Infernal Realm.
"Hurry, faster! We can't let this big fish get away. Gunther's reward for capturing this Lightning Element Beast will be substantial." This group, by initial estimation, numbered tens of thousands, but the majority of them moved very slowly, with only a few leaders able to keep up with the Lightning Element Beast's speed.
"Swoosh--" A Divine Beast with a single horn on its head and a shape resembling a Qilin was currently riding on lightning to escape at high speed. Its speed was even faster than that of an ordinary Seven-Star Fiend.
Not far behind him, a total of six powerful figures were rapidly pursuing him. Among them was a dark fairy girl who had transformed into a shadow, and an exploding fireball that shot towards him like a meteor, creating a gust of air. This blazing fireball was actually the transformed form of a fire-elemental expert.
The other four also transformed into bolts of lightning, their shifting forms creating four streaks of purple light in the air, a beautiful sight indeed. But for the Lightning Element Beast Bodun, it was a death knell.
"These guys are like mad dogs, biting people indiscriminately. I should never have come to this Divine Lightning Plane!" Bodun was starting to regret it. He had finally escaped that damn Planar Prison and hadn't even had a chance to enjoy life in the Material Plane for long before he impulsively came to the Divine Plane.
Who would have thought that there would be so many powerful beings in this Divine Plane? The king-level beings alone were like swarms of wasps, arriving in droves. Lord Bodun, the Lightning King once dominated the Paerlun Planar Prison, was now being chased and forced to flee for his life!
If I were to return to the Kawa Plane, I would kill that sycophantic plane guardian! That damned fellow! He actually tricked his great Lord Bodun into coming here to suffer!
"Hmm? Another Metallic Lifeform ahead? Perfect, it can buy me some more time." Bodun, in his Lightning Element Beast form, saw a dark blue Metallic Lifeform approaching from afar and his eyes lit up.
Those who can pilot Metallic Lifeform in the Divine Plane are basically Highgod, and they are likely Thunder Emissary Messenger. Even if it's just to help them delay the others for a few breaths, it would be a good thing.
"Hmm? Interesting? They actually dare to run this way." A playful smile crept onto Rog's face. He then stretched out his right hand, causing the space to tremble slightly. High above in the dimensional space,
Suddenly, a giant golden hand, hundreds of meters wide, materialized—"What?!" Bodun, who was rushing towards them, was so frightened that his small eyes widened in shock. His instincts told him that something terrible was about to happen again!
"Boom!" The golden hand was actually just formed from condensed elemental energy, nothing special. But how could Rog's meticulously crafted grappling techniques be as simple as they appeared?
"No way! What the hell is this? Such strong gravity!" Bodun tried to struggle, but the seemingly simple golden palm generated an electromagnetic force that was unimaginable to ordinary people. No matter how hard he tried, he still had to obediently be held in the palm of the golden hand.
"What?" In the distance, when they first saw the golden hand appear, they hadn't paid much attention. It was just a mere elemental creation; even if it was large, what use was it?
But the next second, the slippery, eel-like Lightning Element Beast was actually captured by the golden hand. What?
"Esteemed sir, this Lightning Element Beast is Gunther Gunther's prey. We urge you to hand it over to us. My master will surely remember your kindness." Although Charles had a feeling that the owner of the golden hand was no ordinary person, he was confident that as long as he mentioned Gunther Gunther's name, this unfamiliar expert would definitely give them face.
"Gunther?" Upon hearing this name, Rog frowned. With his current strength, the only ones he could be wary of were Paragon High-God. And this Gunther was one of the top three peerless powerhouses in the Divine Lightning Plane, and many people also claimed that he was Paragon High-God.
In Rog's memory, there was only one female Paragon High-God of the Lightning Element named Ninisha. However, since this Gunther is hailed as the number one person below the Sovereign the Golden Lightning Continent, it must not be without reason; he must have some special abilities.
Unless absolutely necessary, there's no need to make enemies with such a powerful figure. However, Rog was very displeased with their attitude. He couldn't stand these bullies who relied on their power. A few Seven-Star Fiend dared to speak to an Asura powerhouse like that; they were truly ignorant of their own limitations!
"Your Excellency, please don't make things difficult for us. We've put in a lot of effort to hunt this Lightning Element Beast. Gunther also attaches great importance to it." Another powerful female member of the Dark Lightning Element Beast Clan couldn't help but speak up at this moment.
His words implied a desire to bring up Gunther's name, hoping to discourage Rog from taking the challenge.
In her view, even if this person was a powerful figure at the Prefect from the Divine Lightning Plane, he probably wouldn't be willing to be an enemy of Gunther behind them. After all, there are differences even among Asura powerhouses! And Lord Gunther is a completely different concept from ordinary Asura powerhouses.
The others looked at Rog with equal confidence, certain that mentioning Gunther's name would force him to hand over the Lightning Element Beast. However, they dared not press him too hard, after all, he was a genuine Asura powerhouse. What if he became enraged and killed them? Who would they turn to for justice?
"This is bad." Bodun was also having a headache. He could foresee that if these people wanted to capture him, he would definitely suffer. In his mind, he already had a horrifying image of himself being dissected into a specimen.
"No, I absolutely cannot let them take me away." The thought of his miserable future sent chills down Bodun's spine. But was there any way to get this powerful stranger to protect him? That guy named Gunther certainly seemed quite intimidating.
"I've got it!" Bodun suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembering that guy in the Paerlun Planar Prison, and then immediately Soul Transmission to this unfamiliar powerhouse.
"Little guy, are you telling the truth?" Rog was quite surprised by the information this Divine Beast had given him. If what it said was true, even if it was a powerful being who seemed to be Paragon High-God, he would still have to confront him!
After all, among so many powerful individuals who are suspected to be at the Paragon High-God, how many are truly as strong as Aiken?
Moreover, if what this guy said is true, even if a true Paragon cultivator came to his door, they wouldn't be able to kill him!
