The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1100 - 425: Ancient Thunder Pond_3

"This is a product of highly compressed, highly concentrated Thunder Element, a mere drop is enough to scatter the soul of a glorious ghost..."

Jue murmured, revealing his own insights, then hesitated a bit before saying, enraptured,

"Bosom Friend of the Human Race, I wish to step into it, to immerse myself in the Ancient Thunder Pond and play my music..."

"This is an excellent place to practice the piano, to cultivate one’s sentiments, to cleanse the soul, and it will certainly help me refine my skills in music..."

"Let’s go."

Ye Hanjun licked his lips, forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart.

Suddenly, a mechanical ape leapt out from the Ancient Thunder Pond, its body erupting with blinding light, energy circuits extending tens of thousands around it.

It puffed out its chest, raised its arm to hammer the sky, and with a roar that could split gold and crack stone, it stirred up gigantic waves.

After its roar, the mechanical ape stepped on the earth, its joints creaking, as its body gradually expanded, eventually becoming a three-armed mechanical ape, with its life force spiraling from day to day.

"Evolved?"

Ye Hanjun watched intently.

Despite the distance, he still noticed that the ape must have previously been at the level of Supreme Sacred Great Achievement.

Because it bathed in the Ancient Thunder Pond, it seemed to have triggered both "self-modification" and "self-upgrade" mentioned by Xiahou Danxin, transforming into Supreme Holy Completion, thus becoming the King of Holy Beasts.

"Hooh, hooh, hooh!!"

The giant ape showed no joy, only a cold, commanding light flickered in its mechanical eyes.

It leapt out of the formation, glanced at Ye Hanjun, and bolted away into the distance.

Once its figure completely vanished, Ye Hanjun’s heart, which had been still for so long, suddenly began to beat rapidly.

"Preaching... a missionary could also accomplish that, it’s merely a matter of time..."

"Five hundred years of access rights, Jue, Lan Qixiong, is there a chance to advance further?"

Filled with undisguised anticipation, Ye Hanjun stepped into the Ancient Thunder Pond.

Lie Xinxin, Ye Liuying, Shi Li... suddenly came to a halt.

Helian Baxuan’s gift was only for Ye Hanjun; they were not fortunate enough to enjoy it.

Ye Hanjun paused, thought for a moment, and then shouted loudly,

"I will be in seclusion here; you guys go for a walk in the city."

"After all, this is the heaven of machinery, since humans live here, there must be exceptional training methods, feel it with your hearts, and earnestly search for opportunities!"

"Godslayer Asura, take it easy!"

Lieyang Mushoucong did not respond, shaking the fiery-green onion atop its head, repeatedly warning,

"This thunder pool feels strangely creepy to me, there might be underlying risks!"

"A few hundred years, not too long, nor too short, we don’t have anything particularly important anyway, we’ll just stay on Mechanic God Mountain, keep in touch regularly!"

"Alright!"

Ye Hanjun nodded and no longer hesitated, officially crossing the barrier of the formation.

What came towards him was the oppressive feeling of mountains, as if a tilting mountain was about to collapse in front of him.

And the direction it was falling, aimed squarely at him, would result in a death with nowhere to lay one’s body.

"Such a terrifying natural power, there are almost no other elements in the space, only lightning..."

Ye Hanjun unconsciously clenched his arm, just a simple breath and he began to cough incessantly, almost vomiting bile.

He is an SS-level "Ten Hall Yama."

Inside the Ten Directions Yama King Palace, there is also the Wind-Thunder Hell that presides over the power of thunderbolts, indirectly involving the transformation of lightning properties.

But Ye Hanjun was certain that what truly allowed him to stand there, barely maintaining a healthy state, was actually the Cross Thunder Sword he bore.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

Sword Thunder Child vibrated, one side protecting its master, the other side resonating with its own bloodline.

When faced with these two options, it had no hesitation in disregarding its bloodline, prioritizing the safety of Ye Hanjun.

"Big Tadpole, are you okay?"

GuaGua pushed Ye Hanjun’s stiff face, quickly engaging "Super Purification" to help him ward off the erosion of the Thunder Element.

The usually powerful ability to dispel abnormal states once again encountered an obstacle.

Only a very few arcs of electricity peeled away from Ye Hanjun’s body.

The majority, like chains, entwined around him, binding his limbs, numbing his organs, the near suffocation of a death experience, assaulting his spirit over and over.

"Clang!!!"

Sword Thunder Child grew furious.

Lightning was part of its essence, but at this moment, this force was actually harming its kin.

A bursting golden arc, like an enraged phoenix soaring to the heavens, stirred ripples in the tranquil thunder lake, which then turned into waves, piling layer upon layer.

"Crash!!"

A thousand-meter high wave smashed fiercely towards Sword Thunder Child.

Sword Thunder Child, fearless, suddenly transformed into a Giant Sword, striking with its edge.

At the intersection of the two, it was like water meeting water, there was a sound of collision, but neither side broke apart.

"Aha, Little Swordy really suits this place!"

GuaGua blinked, quietly tilting her head to one side.

With the Ancient Thunder Pond entering a berserk state, the pressure on the Big Tadpole oddly decreased.

The reduced part all shifted to Sword Thunder Child, evolving into a series of phantoms, endlessly clashing.

"Jue, hurry, play the piano!"

"The rules here are likely shared, the stronger the creature, the more it can attract Thunder Element~~~"

"Ding Dong—Zeng Zeng—Dong Dang—"

The illusion of the Golden Body Demon nodded lightly.

In a flash, the black piano, tinged with the glow of lightning, floated on the surface of the pond, its fiery red strings strummed over and over, weaving a melody that persisted in playing.

"Crash!!"

As expected, the surging electric waves crazily engulfed Jue’s physical form.

Ye Hanjun’s pressure lessened again, and even without the Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits by his side, he could face the natural power of the thunder pond more calmly.

"Hee hee, I don’t have a good or bad feeling about lightning, but this pure Element is really suitable for a bath!"

Little GuaGua rubbed her hands together, suddenly also raising her arms, readying herself for a dive.

With a plop, she jumped into the water, like a little shark riding the waves, paddling through the thunderous sludge at lightning speed.
