The Great Overlord: Simulating the Future, Dominating Speedrunning

Chapter 115 Returning to Daluo, Hearing the Sky Wrath Beast for the First Time
A few days later,

As Longfengtian closed, the many lights and shadows on the Longfeng Mountains also left one after another, but what happened in Longfengtian spread throughout the entire northern border like a storm.

Lu Chen, who had become famous before, has become the number one among the younger generation in the Northern Territory after this incident. Even many first-class forces in the Northern Territory have heard of him.

For a time, he became extremely famous and his name spread throughout the Northern Territory.

……

The northern boundary is the Daluo realm.

Daluotian, inside the Daluo Palace.

On the golden throne, Mandala's face remained calm. She looked at Lu Chen with a flicker of approval in her eyes. She said, "You did well this time. Prince Netherworld is hailed as the most outstanding genius in the Netherworld Palace in the past hundred years. Killing him has won back a lot of reputation for our Daluo Realm."

"I've already ordered someone to prepare a celebration banquet for you. Let's celebrate properly."

Hearing this, Lu Chen, who was sitting on the stone throne, shook his head slightly and said, "There's no need for a celebration banquet. He's just a fifth-grade supreme being. You can celebrate after you kill Netherworld Heavenly Venerable and annex Netherworld Palace."

Mandala smiled, then paused and said, "Since that's the case, I can't treat you unfairly."

"If you have anything you want, I'll try my best to satisfy you."

"really?"

When Lu Chen heard this, he raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but ask back.

Mandala nodded, staring at Lu Chen with golden eyes, raising her snow-white neck high, and said lightly: "I am the lord of a region, and I will keep my word. I will not deceive a junior like you."

Seeing this, Lu Chen was no longer polite. He clenched his palm and a fragment of an ancient map appeared in his hand. He then handed it to Mandala: "In this case, Domain Lord, take a look. Do you recognize this thing?"

Mandala took the fragment with some doubt. He glanced at it with his large golden eyes. He frowned at first, but then a golden light surged in his eyes. His expression changed drastically. He said in astonishment, "Skywrath Beast? Why is there a portrait of him on this fragment? Where did you get it?"

"The incomplete map was obtained by Long Fengtian."

"At the time, I simply felt that this picture was somewhat mysterious. As it burned, the Daluo Golden Flame felt a faint fear of the divine beast on the picture, so I collected it."

Lu Chen said this calmly, then pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Excuse me, Territory Lord, is there anything unusual about this Sky Wrath Beast? I remember that this beast's name doesn't even appear on the Heavenly Ranking or Earthly Ranking of the Myriad Beasts Record. Is it worthy of Daluo Jinyan's fear?"

Hearing this, Mandala shook his head and said, "Not only you, but even ordinary Heavenly Supremes may not have heard of this beast. This beast was born during the ancient thunder transformation. It may be the only one in the world. The name "Sky Wrath" was personally chosen by the Sky Wrath Thunder Emperor of the ancient Thunder Palace."

"Back then, the Skywrath Thunder Emperor received the teachings from the Thunder Emperor and used his physical body to overcome the Heavenly Venerable Tribulation. He overcame three tribulations in a row, but vaguely felt that the power of the fourth tribulation was too weak, so he rushed into the thunder tribulation to take a look."

"Unexpectedly, I happened to encounter a creature absorbing the power of thunder in a thunder tribulation. That creature was quite strange, its body burning with silver flames as violent as thunder. When it opened its mouth, it could resonate with heaven and earth. With one roar, even the Wrathful Thunder Emperor was repelled thousands of miles away."

"Later, the guardian Thunder Emperor intervened and captured the creature. It was only then that we discovered that the creature was actually a spirit transformed from a thunder tribulation. For some unknown reason, it had developed intelligence and transformed into the legendary Thunder Spirit Clan."

"You must know that the universe is vast and boundless. The Flame Spirit Clan, the Ice Spirit Clan, the Wood Spirit Clan, and even the Wind Spirit Clan are all super clans that are famous throughout the universe. Only the Thunder Spirit Clan, who wield the power of thunder, is only recorded in legends and biographies, and no one has ever seen it."

"It was only after capturing the Thunder Spirit that the Thunder Emperor learned from him that the Thunder Spirit Clan, a race that can absorb the power of thunder tribulations, is too powerful. Not only is their birth difficult, but they also suffer from the jealousy of heaven and earth, and are not tolerated by heaven and earth. Very few of them survive to adulthood."

Hearing this, Lu Chen swallowed his saliva and couldn't help asking, "Is the Skywrath Beast that the Thunder Emperor captured an adult?"

"Never." Mandala sighed, a rare occurrence, and said with some emotion, "That Thunder Spirit only lived for six hundred years."

"Six hundred years?"

"A six-hundred-year-old thunder spirit can easily repel a Quasi-Heavenly Supreme who has transcended the Heavenly Supreme Tribulation in his physical body. Domain Lord, are you kidding me?"

Hearing this, Lu Chen's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but ask back.

"These bizarre creatures, born and raised naturally, capable of absorbing the power of thunder tribulations, defy common sense. Within the same realm, they are even more powerful than true dragons and true phoenixes. However, these creatures are extremely rare, with few thunder spirits able to survive for more than eight hundred years."

"Eight hundred years from now, the Lei Ling clan will reach adulthood. At that time, an adult Lei Ling will be as powerful as a Heavenly Supreme."

"So what happened next? What happened to that Thunder Spirit?"

Lu Chen asked curiously.

"Later, the Skywrath Thunder Emperor, delighted by the sight of prey, took the initiative to ask the Thunder Emperor for this Thunder Spirit, naming it Skywrath and letting it devour his own Heavenly Tribulation. Thus, the Skywrath Beast recognized it as its master."

"However, this also caused the Skywrath Thunder Emperor's foundation to be damaged, leading to his premature demise in that ancient catastrophe..."

Mandala said with some sigh.

How do you know all this?

Lu Chen looked at Mandala's sad face and couldn't help but want to ask.

But when I thought about her identity as the adopted daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, it suddenly made a lot more sense.

The Thunder Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor are both among the Nine Emperors of Ancient Times. They were the strongest before the ancient catastrophe. I think they should be familiar with each other, or at least they have met and exchanged ideas with each other.

Otherwise, these nine people would not be listed together and be so respected by people in later generations.

"The Skywrath Beast and the Skywrath Thunder Emperor are closely related. This fragment of your map is very likely to record the Skywrath Thunder Emperor's spiritual treasures. Whenever a powerful Sky Supreme falls, they will leave behind some backup plans. It is impossible for them to disappear without a trace."

"Even more so with a being like the Wrath of Heaven and Thunder Emperor. However, you shouldn't be too complacent. This fragment of the map is incomplete, probably only a quarter of what it was when it was complete. The Wrath of Heaven and Thunder Emperor has a straightforward personality and is not used to splitting a heritage map into four."

"Either someone deliberately set up a trap to lure people in, or someone discovered the Skywrath Thunder Emperor's spiritual vault but didn't dare venture into it easily and wanted to find someone to explore the way."

"After all, the Skywrath Thunder Emperor perished together with a Mysterious Demon Emperor back then. He had a backup plan, and that Mysterious Demon Emperor wasn't necessarily that much worse off."

Mandala said with a serious expression.

"Tian, ​​Xuan, You, the Xuan Mo Emperor is the equivalent of the Immortal Heavenly Supreme in my universe?"

Hearing this, Lu Chen's expression changed slightly, and he asked in a serious tone.

Mandala nodded slowly and said, "Yes, the Skywrath Thunder Emperor back then was a Celestial Supreme. He and the Skywrath Beast teamed up to resist the Mysterious Demon Emperor, but in the end, they were still slightly inferior..."
