Chapter 2225

No one could sense Zi Chen's arrival. Even the people from the Thunder Clan could not sense it, but Lei Dong did.

The techniques that Lei Dong had were things that even the Thunder Clan of the Zhan Wu Continent did not know, but Lei Dong knew a lot of them.

Zi Chen was lucky. He could only find some incomplete techniques from the Thunder Clan, but Lei Dong knew the complete techniques.

In Zi Chen's eyes, Lei Dong was luckier than him. He had once called Lei Dong a treasure giver.

Zi Chen had only obtained four of the Heavenly Thunder Wings with his own ability. The other two were snatched from Lei Dong, but Lei Dong still had four of them.

Zi Chen wanted to know Lei Dong's secret. He had been drooling over Lei Dong's techniques for a long time. He had long had his eyes on his Heavenly Thunder Wings.

"Don't you want to know why I know all the techniques of the Thunder Clan but my comprehension is not high?"

"Don't you want to know why your comprehension is so strong? Why are you able to comprehend all the techniques so quickly?"

Hearing Lei Dong's words, Zi Chen had an answer in his heart. The reason why Lei Dong's comprehension was so low was because he did not have a perfect spiritual sense and also did not have Lei Yuan.

As for Lei Yuan, it was Zi Chen's greatest secret. Because of Lei Yuan, Zi Chen was able to come back from the dead and possess a physique that far surpassed that of ordinary people.

He had escaped death several times because of Lei Yuan.

It could be said that without Lei Yuan, there would be no Zi Chen today.

Indeed, without Lei Yuan, Zi Chen would not be able to merge Yin and Yang into one. He would have died the moment he became Dan Yuan.

"Don't you want to know why your soul is unable to transform and become a Saint?"

Lei Dong asked again. Zi Chen was stunned. He was also puzzled by this question. Logically speaking, he had a perfect world. It would be relatively easy for him to become a Saint. There would not be any bottlenecks. However, he did not think too much about it. He always felt that the time was not right. Perhaps when the world changed again, he would naturally become a Saint.

However, after hearing Lei Dong's words, there seemed to be a mystery behind all of this. Thus, he subconsciously asked, "You know the reason?"

All the foreign races had retreated, and the air was filled with the thick stench of blood. Even after death, the Saints still had some kind of strong energy waves. The two of them just stood among the corpses and chatted.

The members of the Thunder Clan didn't go up to disturb them. They stood on the city walls and watched from afar. Their expressions were filled with gratitude, but there was also a hint of worry.

Of course, he was grateful to Zi Chen, but he was worried about Lei Dong.

From the conversation between the two of them, they could tell that there was a deep enmity between the two of them. It seemed to have reached the point where they would not rest until one of them was dead.

The dignified middle-aged man frowned as he looked at the two people who were conversing.

He had a big background. He was the kind of existence that could shake Shang Three Heavens with a stomp of his feet. He was also one of the strongest warriors on this life star. He was the real ancestor of the Thunder Clan.

The current Thunder Sacred Beast of the Thunder Clan was an existence that was addressed as the Old Ancestor. However, that was his pet.

Zi Chen's Thunder Saber was taken out by him when he entered the Thunder God Palace. He could be considered one of the few powerful beings who could come out alive after entering the Thunder God Palace. Of course, Zi Chen wasn't counted. He could only be considered lucky. Furthermore, he didn't get anything in the Thunder God Palace.

He knew many secrets that others did not know. He knew many secrets in the world. As he listened to Lei Dong's questions, his expression changed drastically. He seemed to have guessed the reason, but felt that it was impossible for it to be so.

Lei Dong looked at Zi Chen and laughed out mockingly, "Because there's an item that you've gotten half of, and I've gotten the other half."

Zi Chen was stunned as his expression changed drastically. It was as though the biggest secret in his heart had been found out by Lei Dong. Subconsciously, he wanted to deny it. Therefore, he asked, "What is it?"

The expression of the Old Ancestor of the Thunder Clan changed because of Lei Dong's words as well. His expression turned doubtful, as though he felt that he had guessed wrongly.

Lei Dong did not beat around the bush as he said directly, "A silvery-white pearl. You've gotten the comprehension and the body, while I've gotten the technique and the soul."

Zi Chen's heart skipped a beat as his expression changed drastically.

"The reason why you haven't been able to enter the Saint Realm is because your soul is not complete. If you can't get this soul, your energy and soul will never be able to enter the Saint Realm for the rest of your life."

The astonished Zi Chen could no longer say a single word. He had not expected that the Thunder Yuan that he had gotten was only half of it. Furthermore, to think that Lei Dong would know about this secret!

Looking at the change in Zi Chen's expression, Lei Dong chuckled out bitterly, "But of course, I only found out about this after I entered the Saint Realm. In the past, I wasn't too clear about it. Back then, I wanted to kill you. Other than a one-sided revenge, the main reason was because I wanted to get my hands on the Heavenly Thunder Wings that belonged to me. But after I entered the Saint Realm, I found out about this. Therefore, I knew that between the two of us, only one of us could live on."

When he said this, Lei Dong's smile was extremely bitter. His expression was equally bitter. Fate truly loved to play tricks on people. This was especially the case for him. The enemy that was arranged for him was someone who possessed the blessings of the entire world.

Lei Dong had never believed in fate. But after he entered the Saint Realm and found out about the truth, he had no choice but to believe in it.

If not for fate, why would he become enemies with Zi Chen? If not for the guidance of fate, how would Zi Chen be able to reach this place and even find him?

Actually, the moment Zi Chen stepped foot into this star region, he had already sensed that Zi Chen was here.

That was because the soul was the true master of the Thunder Yuan that was split into two.

…

At this moment, the Old Master Thunder's expression was equally astounded. In his mind, he could still remember the scene that had happened back then.

That was back in the Thunder God Palace. On the eighth level, behind an extremely remote door, he caught sight of a small pond.

Within the pond, what was flowing was not water. Instead, it was the purest form of Yuan Liquid. The power of that Yuan Liquid was extremely strange. Even the Old Master Thunder could not sense its essence. The only thing he could sense was that there would be thunderbolts swimming within it from time to time. It was as though there were thunder dragons lurking within the pond.

Within the pond, there were no other flowers or plants. There was only a strange plant growing right in the middle of the pond. It did not have any leaves, and only had a single stem that was sticking out. He did not know if it was a lotus leaf or a small tree.

The moment he entered, he seemed to have triggered the seals of this place as the entire pond began to boil. The Yuan Liquid within the pond began to vibrate, causing ripples to form on the surface of the pond. There were even some that were shaken out of the surface of the pond.

That plant that no one could see through suddenly let out an intense glow. Even for the Old Master Thunder, that glow was extremely piercing to his eyes.

That plant was growing rapidly, and the mysterious Spirit Energy within the Yuan Liquid was being drained away rapidly. One after another, leaves began to appear from the stem, emitting all sorts of glows. Within every single leaf, there was a colorful glow that was changing, as though it encompassed everything in the world.

Eventually, the plant grew nine leaves and nine segments tall. Each leaf was nine inches long, representing the extremities of the Heavens. Then, under the influence of the Laws of the Heaven and Earth, it stopped growing.

A fruit that was emitting a colorful glow started to form at the very top of the plant, as though it was a Dao Fruit that encompassed the extremities of the Heavens. That fruit was extremely extraordinary. As it shone, it encompassed everything in the world, as though it encompassed the entire world.

When he caught sight of that fruit, the Old Master Thunder was undoubtedly stunned. It was only after a good while that he snapped back to his senses and rushed towards the center of the pond.

At this moment, the pond water had already turned into the purest and most ordinary water in the world. All of the Spirit Energy within it had dissipated without a trace, and there were no seals here. With a flash, he arrived at the center of the pond, and grabbed towards the fruit that was emitting a colorful glow.

Without any danger, the fruit smoothly landed in his hands. Then, that plant turned into pure energy and dissipated. The clear pond water also turned into specks of light and disappeared.

The pond quickly dried up, and the surroundings were quiet. Only the Old Master Thunder was holding that mysterious fruit in his hands.

The price he had to pay to take something out of the Lightning Divine Palace was simply too great. However, the mysterious and miraculous fruit in front of him was easily held in his hands. Just when the Old Master Thunder felt as though everything was a dream, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart.

It turned out that the energy within his body was being absorbed by the fruit, and was rapidly flowing away. At the same time, the fruit that was emitting a variety of lights, perhaps because it had absorbed too much of the lightning energy from the Lightning Divine Clan, the other lights were dissipating, leaving behind only the lightning silvery light that was becoming more and more resplendent.

This unforeseen event caused the Old Master Thunder's expression to change drastically. He continuously tried to break free from the fruit in his hands, but he was simply unable to shake it off. If this were to continue, he was afraid that all of the energy in his body would be sucked dry. Just when he decided to cut off his arm, the fruit stopped absorbing and shattered with a bang.

Following the shattering of the fruit, a round ball that was sparkling with silver light appeared from within, like a peeled lychee. At the same time, an ancient voice rang out.

That voice was intermittent and unclear, as though it was muttering to itself. The Old Master Thunder had only heard the words' all things in the world are the root, and his own energy is the liquid 'by chance. After that, he couldn't hear anything else.

Just when he was shocked by all of these changes, the round ball that was sparkling with silver light suddenly rushed out from the fruit, wanting to escape.

The Old Master Thunder had used many methods, but he still couldn't stop the round ball. It seemed that there was a repulsion between the two forces, and in the end, the other party escaped.

Only the Old Master Thunder knew about this matter, and it was a secret that belonged to him alone. He had searched everywhere in the Lightning Divine Palace, but he couldn't find this round ball. He had also searched for a long time after leaving the Lightning Divine Palace alive, but he still couldn't find it.

Back then, when his spiritual sense entered the round ball, he discovered many complete Lightning Divine Clan techniques. Therefore, when Lei Dong mentioned this matter, he thought of the mysterious bead that had escaped from the fruit.

What he didn't expect was that the bead had actually been separated and obtained by two people.

As for the outer skin of the fruit, it was also an extraordinary item. After the Old Master Thunder returned, he had once again taken the final half step and become the strongest expert on the life star.

Zi Chen was obviously shocked by Lei Dong's words. He couldn't say a word for a long time. Of course, he didn't expect that Lei Yuan actually had the other half. Moreover, the reason why he couldn't enter the Saint realm wasn't because he didn't have the opportunity, but because Lei Yuan hadn't returned to one.

Looking at the mocking smile on Lei Dong's face, Zi Chen recovered from his shock. This time, he chose to be silent for a long time.

After that, he looked at Lei Dong and said seriously, "I can enter the Saint realm through my own method."

Lei Dong's eyes once again showed disdain. He said, "As expected, you're still like this. You're so fussy and kind-hearted. Sooner or later, you'll get yourself killed."

"Hurry up and recover from your injuries. Don't think that I'll let you go. When we return to the Zhanwu Continent, we still have a battle," Zi Chen said coldly.

After that, he turned around and looked at a certain place. Brilliant and the others were walking over.

"What this world needs are experts, true experts. No matter how strong two Saints are, they can't compare to a Saint King. The situation of this world needs to change. It needs a true expert to change it, and not some experts to maintain it."

Lei Dong turned around and looked at the city, at the people of the Lightning Clan standing on the city walls, and at the true Old Master of the Lightning Clan. He smiled calmly, and his soul began to dissipate.
