Douluo Continent: Five Thunders Shake the Drums, I am the Thunder Emperor!

Chapter 72 A Qualitative Change in Lightning Element, Self-Created Soul Skill, Lightning Illumination of the Mind!

"No need for Your Holiness the Pope to trouble yourself."

Sikong Zhen responded calmly, then immediately countered sharply, "As for your Martial Spirit Hall team, you should think about how to win the runner-up position."

The meaning of this statement is quite clear.

With him around, the championship is out of the question.

The reward for this Soul Master Competition—three ten-thousand-year-old soul bones—was provided by the Spirit Hall, but they all belong to the Heaven Dou Royal Team.

"Sikong Zhen, you are very good."

Bibi Dong's eyes were cold, and she didn't say much. She disappeared in a flash from the sky above the Papal Palace.

see,

Ghostly Spirit, Moon Pass, and other elders of the Spirit Hall also vanished in a flash.

After the Spirit Hall members left.

Qian Daoliu gave Sikong Zhen a deep look, his gaze lingering on the Crimson Thunder Drum in Sikong Zhen's hand for a moment before dissipating into golden light.

"The captain is so handsome!"

Yu Feng excitedly pumped his fist, "He even dares to confront the Pope head-on!"

Yu Yuanzhen's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Xiao Zhen, things are not that simple. Just now, that Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall... seemed to be looking at your little drum."

Qian Daoliu's strength is too great.

A level 99 peerless Douluo, even the slightest movement of his can spark the imagination.

If Qian Daoliu harbors ill intentions, then Yu Yuanzhen will have no power to resist unless he uses the True Dragon Nine Crowns!

Sikong Zhen shook his head.

“Grandpa Yu, I can sense that the Grand Elder has no ill intentions towards me, at least not for now.”

Sikong Zhen believed in his own judgment and was willing to believe in Guangling Douluo's promise.

Yu Yuanzhen also thought of Guangling Douluo's promise—that the Hall of Offerings would not attack them within three years.

Thinking of this,
Yu Yuanzhen nodded slightly. "I hope so, otherwise we'll be in trouble."

Let’s leave this topic aside for now.

Followed by.

Dugu Bo suddenly lowered his voice: "Have you noticed? After the tribulation, the concentration of lightning element in the sky above Wuhun City has increased significantly!"

Only then did everyone realize that the lightning element floating in the air was indeed unusually active.

Some lightning-attribute soul masters even found that the power of their soul skills had inexplicably increased, and their cultivation speed had also improved significantly.

Sikong Zhen closed his eyes and sensed it for a while.

"It seems that my Crimson Lightning Tribulation not only tempered myself, but also caused a qualitative change in the lightning element in this area."

"The concentration of lightning element increased significantly in a short period of time."

Yu Tianheng's eyes lit up: "Doesn't that mean that we lightning attribute soul masters can achieve twice the results with half the effort by cultivating here?"

"That's the theory."

Yu Yuanzhen nodded. "The concentration of lightning element will gradually decrease until it returns to normal, which should last until the end of the competition."

This is the best outcome, allowing Sikong Zhen and the others to cultivate even better during this period.

And after the competition ends.

The Spirit Hall can forget about gaining any more advantage.

Sikong Zhen's eyes flashed with lightning: "Let's go back first, everyone get some rest. I'll go and discuss compensation with the hotel staff."

"Tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the finals, so everyone should get into the right mindset."

"Yes!"

The members of the Heavenly Dou Royal Team responded in unison, their eyes filled with excitement.

……

Meanwhile, inside the Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong sat on the throne, her face ashen.

Below, the elders, including Ghostly Demon, Moon Pass, and Demon Bear, remained silent, trembling with fear.

"What a scoundrel Sikong Zhen! What a scoundrel Yu Yuanzhen and Dugu Bo! How dare they be so arrogant!"

Bibi Dong gripped the scepter tightly in her jade-like hand.

Yue Guan said cautiously, "Your Holiness, Sikong Zhen is indeed very strong, but the Spirit Hall team is not without a chance..."

"Chance?"

Bibi Dong coldly interrupted, "In the face of absolute strength, any scheme is futile. He's almost capable of taking on a Title Douluo one-on-one!"

After a moment of contemplation, Ghost said in a low voice, "Perhaps we can approach it from other angles, such as... that drum."

Bibi Dong's eyes flashed: "You mean, Sikong Zhen's dark red drum?" "Exactly."

Ghost nodded. "The High Priest has always been unfathomable. Since he is interested in that drum, it means that this thing is extraordinary."

Bibi Dong remained silent for a moment.

She could naturally sense the extraordinary nature of that small drum; it was very likely a divine artifact.

Bibi Dong suddenly revealed a meaningful smile: "Pass down the order to closely monitor Sikong Zhen's every move."

"Yes!"

Ghost and Moon Pass responded in unison.

……

Inside the hotel.

Sikong Zhen moved to another room and sat cross-legged on the bed.

The Crimson Thunder Drum in his hand flickered with lightning, trembling slightly as if it were alive.

"How exactly did you come to this world..." Sikong Zhen murmured to himself.

Sikong Zhen gently stroked the Crimson Thunder Drum with both hands, and then, sensing the unusually active thunder element within Martial Soul City, he suddenly had a premonition.

He slowly closed his eyes, spreading his mental energy outwards like a spider web.

"This is."

Sikong Zhen was surprised to find that his mental energy resonated strangely with the lightning element in the air.

Each wisp of lightning element was like an extension of his consciousness, feeding back all the information from the surroundings.

Sikong Zhen's heart stirred.

I'm trying to combine mental power with the element of lightning at a deeper level.

Sudden.

His consciousness seemed to have broken through some kind of boundary.

Centered on Sikong Zhen, the scene within a ten-kilometer radius unfolded in my mind like a three-dimensional scroll.

He "saw" Oslo practicing in the next room, and he "saw" the waiter carrying a tray downstairs.

It can even sense the trajectory of a leaf falling in the courtyard.

"Amazing!"

Sikong Zhen continued to explore this ability more deeply.

He discovered that he could not only sense the existence of objects, but also detect the flow of soul power.

The spirit power fluctuations of the Spirit Hall guards patrolling the streets were as clearly visible as fireflies in the dark.

What surprised him even more was...

Within this sensory domain, even the slightest air movement can be detected.

"If used in combat..."

A thought flashed through Sikong Zhen's mind.

He tried to compress the sensing range to 100 meters, but the accuracy improved significantly.

At this moment, he could even "hear" Yu Tianheng's steady breathing and sense the subtle changes in the flow of soul power at Ye Lingling's fingertips.

"I'll call you 'Thunderous Mind'," Sikong Zhen said with a slight smile.

This self-created soul skill is highly practical.

In battle, every move the enemy makes can be predicted in advance, and any hidden killing intent will have nowhere to hide.

Sikong Zhen even thought that if he could combine this ability with the power of thunder, he might be able to develop even more powerful attack methods.

Just as he was immersed in his enlightenment, he suddenly sensed a powerful aura.

That is the offering hall from the mountaintop.

Its aura is as deep and unfathomable as an abyss or the ocean.

"A Thousand Streams"

Sikong Zhen immediately withdrew his mental energy.

He clearly sensed that the peerless Douluo seemed to have noticed something, his gaze sweeping across the sky above Wuhun City like lightning.

"It seems that this ability still has limitations for top-tier experts."

Sikong Zhen secretly became alert.

Qian Daoliu is a peerless Douluo, and he can make the most of the angel's divine power within Wuhun City, his perception is too strong.

Bibi Dong, influenced by the Rakshasa God's test, was unable to perceive it.

The inspiration for my self-created soul skill, Thunderous Mind's Eye, came from a reader's comment, for which I express my gratitude!
