Open up and break into another world

Flying towards Holy Emperor City, Xu Ming passed through many divine cities and forces of the Thunder Continent.

Afterward, Xu Ming came to two conclusions:

The first conclusion was that the overall strength of the Thunder Continent was slightly stronger than that of the Flame Continent.

For example, the lower-tier divine cities of the Flame Continent were generally headed by powerful ten-star gods; within their jurisdictions, there were only a few Silver Moon-level experts, and they could be counted on one's fingers. In the lower-tier divine cities of the Thunder Continent, Silver Moon-level experts served as city lords; within their jurisdictions, there were many Silver Moon-level experts, and even some with Silver Moon fourth-grade and fifth-grade strength!

In Xu Ming's view, this was normal.

After all, the Thunder Continent was the location of the God Domain's number one city, "Holy Emperor City"; moreover, the headquarters of super forces in the God Domain, such as the Void Sky Realm, the Hall of Time and Space, and the God-slaughtering Arena, were also located in the Thunder Continent… Therefore, it was only natural that the overall strength of the Thunder Continent was somewhat stronger than that of other continents.

The second conclusion was that… there were many geniuses going to Holy Emperor City to participate in the martial arts competition! Very many!

So many that they were countless!

Xu Ming was puzzled: "These geniuses with early-stage or mid-stage King-Sealing strength, even if they go to Holy Emperor City, could they possibly have even the slightest chance of winning the martial arts competition? Since there is absolutely no chance, why are they still going to Holy Emperor City to join in the fun?"

Xu Ming couldn't understand.

He also didn't bother to think about it.

In any case, these weak King-Sealing levels could not pose the slightest competitive pressure on Xu Ming.

Xu Ming's real competitors should be the super geniuses cultivated by those super forces in the God Domain! However, these so-called super geniuses will eventually become the red carpet trampled upon by Xu Ming, paving the way for Xu Ming to marry Yin Ran.

Whoosh—

Xu Ming's figure rapidly traversed the sky above the Thunder Continent.

To see Yin Ran, Xu Ming had almost crossed half of the God Domain!

Suddenly, Xu Ming stopped his rapid advance, his brow slightly furrowed.

He was carefully sensing the surrounding space: "In that direction, there seems to be a very strong power of thunder…"

Thunder Continent was just the name of a continent; it didn't mean that there would be a lot of thunder power on this continent. Just like the Flame Continent, there wasn't much fire power either, it was just a "continent name" in itself.

Therefore, Xu Ming was a little surprised to sense that there was a very strong power of thunder not far away. After all, the power of thunder was a good thing!

"Go and take a look!"

Anyway, it was not far from Holy Emperor City, and there were still more than ten years before the martial arts competition began, so Xu Ming was not in a hurry to rush on his way.

"This…"

When Xu Ming arrived at the place where the power of thunder was strong, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock.

This was a continuous and endless mountain range, and on every mountain peak, there were ferocious lightning bolts lingering. There were purple divine lightning bolts full of violent aura, black divine lightning bolts full of death aura… countless.

"The God Domain actually has such a place? The value of these divine lightning bolts is probably not low, right?"

However, what shocked Xu Ming the most was not the endless divine lightning bolts; but when he looked into the distance, he actually saw a "Thunder Spirit" condensed from the power of thunder in the central area of the mountain range!—a spirit of lightning, just like a real life!

Moreover, the key was that the combat power of these Thunder Spirits was not low!

Boom! Boom! Boom!…

In the central area of the mountain range, there were constant crashing sounds.

Xu Ming saw a black-clad youth being besieged by dozens of Thunder Spirits, his situation was very embarrassing. Moreover, more and more Thunder Spirits were rushing over; as time went by, the youth's situation would definitely become increasingly unfavorable.

Xu Ming watched in surprise: "This youth, he also has mid-stage King-Sealing strength, right? He is actually being besieged by these Thunder Spirits to the point where he is in danger, and even saving his life is difficult?"

Xu Ming increasingly felt that this mountain range was not simple.

"I'll just ask this youth what secrets this mountain range has!"

At this time, the black-clad youth's expression was full of unwillingness: "Could it be… that I really can't complete the Thunder Spirit Mountain Range's test? And, I might even die here?—No!!"

Boom!

Just as the black-clad youth was unwilling, a "great" figure descended like a god!

This figure, at a speed that the black-clad youth could hardly see clearly, swept away all the Thunder Spirits; then, he opened his mouth and said: "Fellow Daoist, let me ask, what is this place?"

It was Xu Ming's voice.

The black-clad youth was already dumbfounded, and replied blankly: "Thunder Spirit Mountain Range!"

"Thunder Spirit Mountain Range?"

However, at this time, Xu Ming found that his divine body actually felt a little numb, as if countless weak currents were passing through his divine body.

"My cultivation is actually faintly improving!"

Although it wasn't a big improvement, it was indeed improving.

Xu Ming immediately reacted: "Is it because I killed these Thunder Spirits?"

Xu Ming really didn't expect that killing Thunder Spirits would also have the effect of improving cultivation.

At this moment, the black-clad youth also reacted: "I am Meng He, thank you, Senior, for saving my life!"

Xu Ming waved his hand: "I saved you just to ask you some questions!—Do you know if there is anything special about this Thunder Spirit Mountain Range?"

The black-clad youth Meng He said: "The most precious thing in the Thunder Spirit Mountain Range is these Thunder Spirits; they have some effect on improving the cultivation of ancient cultivator schools!"

"Oh!" Xu Ming nodded—he had already verified this point.

"However…" Meng He continued, "The most mysterious thing in the Thunder Spirit Mountain Range is the Thunder Gate in the core area of the mountain range!—It is a gate formed by countless lightning bolts, and it is unknown where it leads! But… as long as the gods who enter the Thunder Gate, they have never come out again!"

"There's such a thing?" Xu Ming became even more curious.

"Senior!" Meng He also said, "Can you give me the Thunder Spirit remains on the ground? I have a test mission that I need to use…"

Thunder Spirit remains?

Xu Ming glanced at them—these Thunder Spirit remains no longer had any power in them, they were just pure remains; to put it bluntly, they were garbage.

Xu Ming naturally didn't care: "You can take them!"

"Thank you, Senior!"

And Xu Ming directly flew towards the deeper part of the Thunder Spirit Mountain Range.

"Thunder Gate?" Xu Ming thought to himself, "I want to see what kind of place that is?"

Meng He seemed to have seen through Xu Ming's thoughts, and while collecting the Thunder Spirit remains, he shouted from afar: "Senior! You must not enter the Thunder Gate!—I have never heard of anyone who has come out of it!"

Xu Ming didn't turn his head, just waved his hand dashingly behind him, indicating that he understood his kind reminder.

And Meng He, after collecting the Thunder Spirit remains, happily walked towards the periphery of the Thunder Spirit Mountain Range, embarking on his journey home. He secretly rejoiced in his heart: "With so many Thunder Spirit remains, I will definitely pass the test; in this way, I will be able to stand out from the sect's selection and go to Holy Emperor City to participate in the martial arts competition!"

If Xu Ming knew that this Meng He took the Thunder Spirit remains to participate in the martial arts competition, would he be so angry that he vomited blood?
