Chapter 233: The Thunder Ancestral Symbol
"The world has one less demon king now!" Moluo couldn't help but laugh as he watched the demon king disappear.
"Yes, with one less demon king, the strength of the demon race in this world is slightly weakened," the Thunder Emperor nodded. He then pointed into the air, causing some lightning to fall in front of Xiao Tian.
"Future powerhouse, these are my insights from when I broke through to the Rotating Wheel Realm. I hope you can find someone destined for them and pass them on," the Thunder Emperor said.
"Alright," Xiao Tian nodded in agreement.
Then the Thunder Emperor asked, "How are the demons in this world nowadays?"
"They are hiding deeper and deeper," Moluo said gravely. "Moreover, they are becoming more organized. Nowadays, they have formed a terrifying and secretive organization, always thinking of breaking open the world to let the demons from outside in."
He continued, "Over the past few centuries, many top experts and those who have obtained ancient divine artifacts have been besieged and attacked by them. I suspect that the ones who besieged you, Thunder Emperor, were demons from this organization."
"They have more tricks than that," Xiao Tian added. "Recently, I destroyed a super sect in the Eastern Profound Domain, and it turned out that there were many demon corpses within. I suspect that the demons have infiltrated many super forces."
"What?" Moluo and the Thunder Emperor's expressions changed slightly upon hearing this.
If it was just demons, it wouldn't be too bad, but if there were human experts who had betrayed them and turned against them at a critical moment, it would be disastrous.
"I need to go back and inform some old friends about this," Moluo said.
"As for these matters, I can't help much anymore," the Thunder Emperor sighed, then looked at the Thunder Ancestral Symbol. "You must have come here for this as well."
"Yes," Xiao Tian nodded.
Moluo stepped back, saying, "I am not as strong as you, so I won't fight you for it. But I need a source of the Thunder Ancestral Symbol's power."
"Do you realize that taking away a source will prevent the Thunder Ancestral Symbol from ever being whole again?" The Thunder Emperor frowned.
Moluo explained, "We need it as bait to lure the demons out."
"I promised to give it to you, so I won't go back on my word," Xiao Tian said. "When does this plan start?"
"In three months," Moluo replied.
Xiao Tian nodded, "Alright, three months later, I will personally visit the Flame God Hall. Whether successful or not, I will take back the source."
"Thank you," Moluo responded, then flew to the thunder sun, reaching out with two giant flaming hands to retrieve a part of the Thunder Ancestral Symbol's power.
"Zzzap!" The thunderlight flashed madly, and after a while, the flaming hands emerged, holding a dazzling thunderlight that vaguely formed an ancient symbol.
"Farewell, both of you," Moluo said, bowing before leaving with the Thunder Ancestral Symbol's source.
The Thunder Emperor looked at Xiao Tian and said, "Now, the Thunder Ancestral Symbol will finally welcome its new owner."
Xiao Tian nodded, stepping onto the void and moving towards the thousand-foot thunder sun, disappearing within it under the watchful eyes of the Thunder Emperor and Mu Lingshan.
In a chaotic world, a vast energy suddenly condensed, followed by a low, deep thunder. Initially faint, the thunder grew louder.
Xiao Tian appeared in this place, observing a silver light emerging from the chaos, exuding an ancient and powerful aura. This was the birth of the Thunder Ancestral Symbol.
"Boom!" The chaotic world suddenly transformed into a thunder world, with massive thunderbolts like thunder dragons striking down, their roars echoing deafeningly.
"Yan, how do I refine the Thunder Ancestral Symbol?" Xiao Tian asked.
Yan responded casually, "The Thunder Ancestral Symbol is extremely domineering. To gain its recognition, you must withstand ten thousand thunderbolts!"
"Boom!" As soon as he spoke, a thousand-foot thunderbolt tore through the sky, striking Xiao Tian.
"So be it, let these ten thousand thunderbolts forge a strong physique for me!" Xiao Tian sat cross-legged, enduring the thunderbolts.
Refining an ancestral symbol requires no external aid, so Xiao Tian could only rely on his body. Fortunately, his body had previously withstood many terrifying thunderbolts, including the Black Demon Thunder, giving him a good tolerance for electricity.
Time passed, and a faint thunderlight began to emit from Xiao Tian's body. He formed hand seals, his appearance solemn, exuding the majesty of a Thunder Emperor.
When the final thunderbolt struck, Xiao Tian finally awoke. He felt a peculiar kinship with the thunders around him. Reaching out to touch one, the thunder did not harm him; the once untamed power of nature was now as gentle as a lamb.
"Boom!" A huge thunder vortex appeared, and an ancient symbol descended before Xiao Tian. Seeing the ancestral symbol, Xiao Tian knew he had gained its recognition.
"Now I have three ancestral symbols!" Xiao Tian thought, and with a thought, the Thunder Ancestral Symbol turned into a thunderlight and entered his Niwan Palace.
A white light followed, also entering his Niwan Palace. "The Seal of Balance!" With previous experience, Xiao Tian easily balanced the three ancestral symbols using the power of the ancestral stone.
"Zzzap!" As he refined the Thunder Ancestral Symbol, vast energy poured into his body, giving his fighting energy a new silver luster. This meant his fighting energy would now possess both flame and thunder attributes, making it extremely domineering.
"Boom!" With the influx of energy, Xiao Tian's aura also began to rise. He was already at the late stage of the one-star Dou Sheng level, but now he broke through to the early stage of the two-star Dou Sheng level.
Xiao Tian opened his eyes, delighted, "The Thunder Emperor's scepter and the Thunder Ancestral Symbol, what a great harvest!" These were only the items useful to him. Including the Death Qi Pills, Thunder Hearts, martial arts techniques, and spiritual treasures, he had gained even more treasures.
