Chapter 127: Dragon Elephant Realm, Lei Peng's Corpse

Is someone trying to ambush me?

When Zhou Haochen saw the hexagram, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Who wants to ambush me?
Did I offend anyone?
Zhou Haochen thought about it carefully but couldn't figure out who he had offended recently.

Could it be the White Lotus Sect?

The White Lotus Sect does have the motive, but it may not have the strength to do so.

Tai Shuqing was seriously injured and I don’t know where he is hiding to recuperate. He probably doesn’t have the energy to deal with me.

Could it be Xuanyuan blood?

This is even more impossible!

My Jiachen vest has not fallen off yet, so Xuanyuan Xue will not target me!

If they were really targeting me, I would have had plenty of opportunities over the past decade or so.

Even Xuanyuan Xue didn't know that I was investigating them in secret.

"So, who could it be?"

Zhou Haochen's face was cold, and there was chill in his eyes.

This feeling of being stared at made him quite unhappy, like a thorn in his throat.

Judging from the hexagram of Zhongzhong, the mastermind behind the scenes has spies in the Beidou Secret Realm, so if one reveals his true identity, he will be attacked.

Instead, he disguised himself as Jiachen and nothing happened.

Fortunately, the opponent must have underestimated his strength, and the force that ambushed him was not strong.

It can be seen from the hexagram that the ending is safe and sound.

After some thought, Zhou Haochen made a decision.

The identity of the mastermind who is secretly targeting you must be found out.

The opportunities in the Yuheng Tower must also be taken away.

Children only make choices, adults want them all.

After making up his mind, Zhou Haochen took off his disguise and walked into the Yuheng Tower as the Thirteenth Prince.

Since the mastermind behind this has spies in the Beidou Secret Realm, then if I enter the Yuheng Tower under the identity of the Thirteenth Prince, the other party will definitely know about it.

The other party will certainly chase us into the Yuheng Tower.

Fighting in the Yuheng Tower can not only lure out the mastermind behind the scenes, but also avoid exposing one's strength.

This is Zhou Haochen’s plan to lure the snake out of its hole.

After Zhou Haochen entered the Yuheng Tower, a middle-aged man with ordinary looks quietly left the Beidou Secret Realm and went to a nearby alley.

"Young Master Liu, the Thirteenth Prince has just entered the Yuheng Tower." The middle-aged man reported.

Liu Qingyang, who was sitting upright and drinking tea, suddenly flashed with light in his eyes when he heard the news.

"You did very well!"

"Master Liu, the technique you promised me!"

"I am a disciple of the Shenxiao Sect. I don't even bother to lie to you. The skills I promised you cannot be omitted without you." The smile on Liu Qingyang's lips curled up ostentatiously.

"That's right! That's right! Mr. Liu, you are a man of your word, so I naturally don't worry that you will break it." The middle-aged man responded quickly with a flattering smile on his face.

"It's just that I've been stuck in the bottleneck of the fifth realm for many years, and I want to get the skills as soon as possible..."

Without waiting for the middle-aged man to finish his words, Liu Qingyang suddenly took action, and a bolt of lightning fell from the sky.

A right hand covered with purple thunder grew bigger and bigger in his pupils.

The next second, terrifying thunder pierced his chest.

Murderer!
It’s Liu Qingyang!
The middle-aged man died with his eyes open, and until his death, his eyes were filled with disbelief.

At most, he thought that Liu Qingyang would break his promise and not give him the skills, or that he would shortchange him in the skills.

No one would have thought that Liu Qingyang, a disciple of a famous and upright sect, would be so cruel and ruthless, even more so than the people in the Demonic Cult!

Looking at the body of the middle-aged man, Liu Qingyang sneered.

"idiot!"

"Once Zhou Haochen dies, you will be the biggest hidden danger!"

"How can I allow a hidden danger like you to survive in this world?"

With a flick of his fingertips, thunder and fire were ignited. After destroying the corpse and all traces, Liu Qingyang went to the Beidou Secret Realm and broke into the Yuheng Tower.

……

Yuheng Tower, first floor.

The moment Zhou Haochen entered the Yuheng Tower, he was struck by lightning.

Purple lightning, like a lightning snake, moved across the surface of his body.

"Thunder Body Tempering!"

In the secret library, Zhou Haochen experienced thunder body tempering once and was very familiar with this feeling.

However, compared to the thunder body tempering in the Thunder God Seal, the thunder in the first level of the Jade Heng Tower is just a tickle.

Zhou Haochen walked quickly to the second floor of the Yuheng Tower, allowing the thunder to fall on his shoulders, but not slowing down at all.

Second floor.

"too weak!"

……

the third floor.

"too weak!"

……

With each higher level you go in the Yuheng Tower, the thunder in the tower will become more violent.

From the bluish purple at the beginning, it turned into a deep dark purple, and in the end, it was even mixed with a hint of black that carried a sense of destruction.

On the sixth floor.

boom--

boom--

boom--

One after another, lightning mixed with black, as thick as iron pillars, fell on Zhou Haochen.

Even though the thunder was striking, Zhou Haochen's face did not show any expression of pain. Instead, he seemed to be enjoying it very much, with his eyes half-closed, as if he was taking a hot spring bath.

"Yuheng Tower is truly my treasured place!"

Zhou Haochen couldn't help but sigh that the Yuheng Tower was perfect for him.

He possesses two top-level thunder talents, the Chaos Thunder Pool and the Five Thunder Spirits, and has an excellent compatibility with the thunder of heaven and earth.

Tempering the body with thunder is a test for other practitioners, even for thunder practitioners.

If you are not careful, you will fall under the thunder.

But this is not the case for Zhou Haochen.

In the Yuheng Pagoda, the thunder in the sky is not a training, but a kind of massage.

As long as the power of thunder does not exceed the tolerance of the Chaos Thunder Pool and the Five Thunder Spirits, Zhou Haochen can continue to enjoy himself like this.

Thunder body tempering!

Tempering his body, cleansing the filth in his body, and tempering every inch of flesh and blood.

Zhou Haochen could clearly feel that his body was undergoing a transformation, as if it was transforming into a more advanced life form.

The fourth realm of martial arts - the realm of rebirth, the progress of practice advances by leaps and bounds.

Zhou Haochen could clearly feel that his body was constantly getting stronger.

A terrifying power was brewing deep within his body.

After the Rebirth Realm, there is the fifth realm of martial arts - Dragon Elephant.

What is a dragon elephant? Possessing the power of both a dragon and an elephant is considered to be at the dragon elephant realm.

To cultivate to the level of a dragon elephant is already considered extraordinary and not like an ordinary person.

Not only does he possess inhuman powers, but his lifespan can also be extended by sixty years longer than that of ordinary people.

Zhou Haochen felt the divine power brewing in his body, bathing in thunder, like a god in thunder. Countless thunders seemed to be just to set off his masculine temperament.

A quarter of an hour later, the thunder on the sixth floor lost its effect on Zhou Haochen, and he raised his legs and walked towards the seventh floor.

Seventh floor!
Eighth floor!
The ninth floor!
The thunder in the Yuheng Tower became more and more violent, and the effect of tempering Zhou Haochen's body became better and better.

When Zhou Haochen reached the ninth level, the thunder in the void was already half purple and half black.

The deep black color was mixed with a terrifying sense of destruction, enough to make children cry and cause all things to become annihilated.

Rumble!
A pillar of lightning as thick as a bucket fell down with a loud bang, as if carrying the roar of the god of thunder, and was going to tear Zhou Haochen's body into pieces.

Such terrifying thunder was so terrifying that even Zhou Haochen felt his body paralyzed.

Then, he felt as if a membrane deep inside his body had been punctured.

There was a slight stinging pain, followed by endless pleasure.

"Thunder, help me practice!"

A roar!
Blood and flesh coagulate, impurities are discharged, and pores expand.

At this moment, a dragon and an elephant, a terrifying force, finally took shape!
The fifth realm of martial arts—Dragon Elephant!
Feeling the power in his body comparable to that of a dragon and an elephant, Zhou Haochen narrowed his eyes and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"I didn't expect that this trip to Yuheng Tower would bring such a surprise!" "With the help of thunder to temper my body, I broke through the bottleneck and advanced to the Dragon Elephant Realm."

Zhou Haochen murmured happily.

Martial arts realm, promoted to the fifth realm.

This was completely beyond Zhou Haochen's expectations and not in his plan; it was purely a pleasant surprise.

The Ancient Emperor's Dragon Transformation Sutra he practiced was slow in cultivating his mind, and only with the help of dragon energy could he improve like a cheat.

Thunder Body Tempering is an additional plug-in besides Dragon Qi!

After being promoted to the Dragon Elephant Realm, Zhou Haochen followed the instructions of the hexagram and flew towards the northwest.

The speed was so fast that it seemed like an afterimage in the sky full of thunder.

……

Yuheng Tower, seventh floor.

Liu Qingyang was suspended in the air, with a deep frown on his face.

"No?"

"Not even a seventh floor?"

Liu Qingyang's tone was filled with a hint of anger and a deep sense of surprise.

He conducted a thorough search starting from the first floor of the Yuheng Tower.

Search all the way from the first floor to the seventh floor.

If he was not sure that the middle-aged man would not dare to deceive him, he would have doubted whether the Thirteenth Prince had not come to the Yuheng Tower.

"Did he go to the eighth and ninth floors?"

"According to the sect's estimation of the Thirteenth Prince, the Thirteenth Prince is most likely in the third realm, or at most the fourth realm."

"With this level of strength, how dare you go to the eighth and ninth floors?"

Liu Qingyang snorted coldly, his tone filled with deep confusion.

He was well aware of the violent thunder on the eighth and ninth floors of the Yuheng Tower.

According to Liu Qingyang's original plan, he intended to use the thunder in the Yuheng Tower to temper his body and improve his foundation.

I plan to move forward step by step, steadily, without trying to pass through the Yuheng Tower in one breath.

But...if Zhou Haochen is on the eighth floor, or even the ninth floor, then we have to change the plan.

The remaining soul of the Demon Lord seemed to sense the fluctuations in Liu Qingyang's heart and spoke in a puzzled tone.

"The environment on the eighth and ninth floors of Yuheng Tower is harsh."

"You are Taoists, not good at physical combat, so if you fight, accidents are likely to happen."

"I can lend you the White Bone Demon Armor, which can ignore the thunder on the upper two levels."

Liu Qingyang sneered at the words of the Demon Lord.

He knew the other party's plan very well, but he had no choice but to let himself experience the powerful force and slowly lure himself into corruption.

He had seen through this little trick a long time ago.

"Demon Lord, bring me the White Bone Demon Armor."

"Well? Do you agree?"

"Didn't you always not want to use the White Bone Demon Armor?"

"Humph - this is a different time! I know all your little tricks, Demon Lord."

"If you think a piece of armor can lure me into depravity, you underestimate me, Liu Qingyang!"

Liu Qingyang said proudly and unrestrainedly.

He is the prodigy of the Shenxiao Sect and a genius who will become the sect's leader in the future. How could he fall into the evil sect just because of a piece of armor?
The dignified Demon Lord, you really underestimated him!

"Ha ha!"

"So good!"

"This white bone demon armor is my life-saving magic weapon. Take it."

“The power in it will fascinate you.”

As soon as the words fell, a faint light flew out from Liu Qingyang's body.

Beside him, it spun around.

The dim light turned into a suit of armor.

Ordinary armor is made of refined iron or other ores, but these armors are completely different.

His whole body was covered with bones.

Apart from the bones, there are no other materials.

Every bone contained a strong evil spirit. No one knew how many people it had killed or how much blood it had absorbed to produce such a ferocious aura. It seemed like a ferocious beast from ancient times.

After putting on the White Bone Demon Armor, Liu Qingyang rushed directly to the eighth floor.

The violent thunder fell and encountered the White Bone Demon Armor, and was directly bounced away.

Seeing this scene, Liu Qingyang's eyes flickered constantly.

……

Ninth floor, northwest corner.

Zhou Haochen looked at the wall in front of him and fell into deep thought.

What about chance?
What about the opportunities in the hexagram?
He had reached the end of the northwest corner, but did not see any opportunity.

According to the hexagram, if we use the Jiamu True Thunder to bombard the Yuheng Tower, does that mean we have to destroy it in order to get this third-grade opportunity?
After hesitating for a while, Zhou Haochen gritted his teeth, followed the instructions of the hexagram, made a hand gesture, and shot out a ray of Jiamu real thunder.

boom--

boom--

boom--

Three consecutive Jiamu True Thunders all struck the same place.

As three Jiamu True Thunders fell, a curtain of light appeared on the originally ordinary wall.

"This is - a formation!"

Zhou Haochen exclaimed, he didn't expect that there was a formation here.

This formation was so exquisite that Zhou Haochen was standing in front of it but was unaware of it.

It was not until the Jiamu True Thunder was used to bombard the key node of the formation that a flaw was revealed in the operation of the formation.

Without thinking too much, Zhou Haochen walked into the light curtain.

The scene before my eyes changed instantly.

A huge flying bird appeared in front of Zhou Haochen.

To be precise, it's a corpse!

The dead body of a bird!
This flying bird is a hundred feet long, like a mountain.

It has purple feathers on its body and countless thunders surround it.

Although he had been dead for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, he still exuded a terrifying aura, which made Zhou Haochen's breathing become rapid.

"This is... Lei Peng!"

Zhou Haochen couldn't help but exclaimed, with ecstasy in his eyes.

The feeling of joy flowed through his body like an electric current.

The third-grade opportunity in the hexagram turned out to be the corpse of a Lei Peng.

Judging from its size, it should be a juvenile Thunder Peng.

According to records in ancient books, an adult Lei Peng is a thousand feet long.

Compared with the fully grown Thunder Peng, the Thunder Peng cub in front of him could only be considered tiny.

But a Thunder Peng cub is still a Thunder Peng cub, and a complete Thunder Peng corpse means that it may contain the Thunder Peng's essence and blood.

The blood essence of Thunder Peng is one of the natural treasures required to awaken the Five Thunder Holy Body.

A mysterious formation was set up around Lei Peng's body, drawing the thunder from Lei Peng's body.

According to Zhou Haochen's guess, the corpse of Lei Peng is the energy core of Yuheng Tower.

The entire Yuheng Tower is operated by Lei Peng's corpse.

Including the thunder in the Yuheng Tower, it was also extracted from Lei Peng's corpse.

"This third-grade opportunity is very suitable for me!"

"I just accepted it!"

Zhou Haochen smiled. Just for the corpse of Lei Peng, the trip was worthwhile.

Just as he was about to take away Lei Peng's body, a cold voice suddenly sounded in the void, echoing continuously.

The voice was so cold, like the chill wind coming from the Far North.

"Thirteenth Prince, the treasure belongs to those who are virtuous!"

"You are lacking in moral conduct!"

Zhou Haochen turned around suddenly and saw Liu Qingyang staring at Lei Peng's body with fiery eyes.

The moment he saw Liu Qingyang, Zhou Haochen understood everything.

It turned out that the one who attacked him was Liu Qingyang!
