Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

Suppressed hushed discussions arose from the crowd.

The disciples of Thunderfire Peak are mostly influenced by the laws of thunder. Although they are usually reserved, they still cannot hide the shock in their hearts when faced with such a major event concerning the inheritance of the main peak.

"Strength assessment, Domain Lord level?"

An inner disciple carrying a long sword frowned slightly and analyzed in a low voice.

"This condition sounds daunting, but thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem that difficult, does it?"

"Our Thunderfire Peak has quite a few senior brothers and elders who have reached the Domain Lord level."

"That guy named Su Yu, since he was able to break through the black hole-level ranking of the Tower of Babel, his strength must have reached the threshold of the Domain Lord level."

"This first hurdle shouldn't be too difficult for him."

Hearing this, another older deacon couldn't help but sneer.

"Not difficult?"

"You only looked at the first level, not the second?"

The deacon pointed to the last few lines of the decree, his voice revealing a hint of barely concealed horror.

"Comprehension Test - Comprehend the Nine Heavens' Annihilation Tribulation Thunder!"

"Are you blind? That's a strange lightning bolt!"

The older deacon's words caused the surrounding younger disciples to gasp in surprise.

"Don't you know how difficult it is to master extraordinary lightning?!"

The deacon lowered his voice, his tone full of apprehension.

"That's a supreme divine lightning bolt capable of annihilating even a World Lord-level expert!"

"Do you think this is the ordinary lightning we use in our usual cultivation?"

"Do you still remember Elder Chen from 30,000 years ago?"

The deacon brought up a long-forgotten name.

"Elder Chen was a peak Black Hole level cultivator with tens of millions of Origin Blood back then, and his mastery of the Thunder Law was extremely high."

"He went to the forbidden area to comprehend the strange lightning with great confidence."

"He sat there motionless for a full ten thousand years!"

"And the result?"

The deacon swallowed hard.

"It was only because my mental energy fluctuated slightly during my comprehension that the strange lightning resonated with me."

A bolt of lightning, only as thick as a hair, struck down.

"Elder Chen didn't even have time to scream before he was cleaved into nothingness!"

"Even their souls have been completely erased!"

hiss--

The disciples around him felt a chill run down their spines and their bodies go cold.

"Chopped straight to ashes?"

"This is terrifying..."

"Using something like this as an exam question? This isn't testing comprehension; it's practically sending people to their deaths!"

in the crowd.

Several powerful and insightful core disciples exchanged glances.

They saw the deeper meaning behind the imperial edict.

"Senior Brother, you have some impressive skills."

A hint of admiration flashed in the eyes of one of the core disciples, who sighed in admiration.

"This is clearly a conspiracy laid out by the senior brother."

"Our senior brother has been studying the edge of the strange lightning for 90,000 years and is already used to the fluctuations of the strange lightning's laws."

"It's only a matter of time before he passes the test."

"And how could Su Yu, an outsider with no foundation in thunder, possibly subdue the strange thunder in such a short time?"

"This realm lord's inheritance will surely remain in our eldest brother's hands!"

"Senior Brother's move not only preserved the legacy of Thunderfire Peak but also silenced the Sect Master and the Second Elder. Brilliant, truly brilliant!"

on the square.

Although the disciples' discussions were subdued, they revealed a blind confidence in their senior brother and a lack of optimism towards Su Yu.

In their view.

Su Yu is destined to lose this test.

Furthermore, if Su Yu were to force himself to comprehend the strange lightning, he might very well end up like Elder Chen did back then.

Turn to ashes!

……

at the same time.

In the void not far from Thunderfire Peak.

Suddenly, a violent ripple spread through the space.

Two figures walked slowly through the void.

It was the Second Elder and Su Yu.

The Second Elder walked ahead, his sleeves fluttering, his expression remarkably composed.

He turned his head and glanced at Su Yu beside him.

"Su Yu."

The Second Elder's tone was calm, yet it carried a hint of a reminder.

"Most of the guys from Lei Huofeng who play with grenades have terrible tempers."

"Although the Grand Elder promised the Sect Master that he would open the inheritance to you."

"But their disciples are definitely not convinced."

The Second Elder stroked his beard, a wise glint in his eyes.

"Especially the First Elder's personal disciple, Lei Wuji."

"This person has extremely high talent, has already reached the level of a Domain Lord, and has a calm and reserved personality with a very deep mind."

"He is determined to obtain that World Lord's inheritance."

"When you go there, they will definitely set up many tests to make things difficult for you."

The Second Elder looked at Su Yu and spoke earnestly.

"Remember, you must not act impulsively."

"If you encounter an insurmountable challenge, you can take a step back and return to continue studying the techniques of my Taichu Peak."

"With me and the sect leader backing you up, they wouldn't dare to really hurt you."

Faced with the Second Elder's instructions.

Su Yu walked in the void, his expression as calm as still water.

There was no ripple in those deep eyes.

"Second Elder, rest assured."

Su Yu's voice was calm.

"I understand."

He shook his head slightly in his heart.

He now possesses four hundred million drops of flawless primordial blood.

Although it hasn't collapsed into a black hole yet, in terms of pure source blood quality, it has already surpassed the vast majority of early-stage Domain Lords.

In addition, there is the "Primordial Burning Heaven Record," which has just been deduced to the profound level.

And the Chaos Martial God Body, which has been strengthened once again.

His combat power has now expanded to a point that even he himself cannot accurately assess.

The Trial of Lei Huofeng?

In the face of absolute power, any fancy schemes and plots are nothing but paper tigers.

Just as Su Yu was pondering.

hum-

The void ahead suddenly opened up.

A massive mountain, entirely dark purple and enveloped in endless lightning, came into view.

Thunderfire Peak!

The violent laws of lightning raged around the mountain peak, producing a deafening roar.

The Second Elder stopped in his tracks.

Hands behind his back, gazing into the distance.

"arrive."

With a wave of his sleeve, the Second Elder enveloped the two of them instantly with a gentle force of law.

They passed directly through the defensive formation surrounding Thunderfire Peak.

Coming!

boom!

Two figures landed steadily on the main square of Thunderfire Peak, like meteorites falling to earth.

The Second Elder's terrifying aura, which belonged to the peak of the Domain Lord level, was somewhat restrained.

However, the lightning laws across the entire plaza still experienced a very brief pause upon landing.

The disciples of Lei Huofeng, who were originally engaged in a heated discussion, were now in a state of intense debate.

The sound stopped abruptly.

Countless gazes converged on the two people in the center of the square.

Dead silence.

A deathly silence so profound you could hear a pin drop.

The Second Elder remained indifferent, ignoring the awe-inspiring gazes around him.

He simply turned slightly to the side, making way for Su Yu behind him.

Su Yu wore a plain-colored long robe.

He had an upright posture and deep, restrained eyes.

He stood in the square of Lei Huofeng, facing thousands of scrutinizing, questioning, and even hostile gazes around him.

His expression was remarkably calm.

There was no awkwardness whatsoever, nor any arrogance whatsoever.

It felt as relaxed as returning to one's own backyard.

"Elder."

The Second Elder did not shout loudly, but spoke in a calm tone.

However, the sound, amplified by the laws of nature, clearly entered the main hall of Thunderfire Peak.

The voice just fell.

The main gate of Lei Huo Feng's main hall suddenly swung open.

An extremely violent, dark purple lightning pressure swept out of the hall like a tsunami.

Followed by.

The Grand Elder's majestic figure slowly appeared at the entrance of the main hall.

And beside the Grand Elder.

Standing there was a young man dressed in a purple robe, whose aura was as deep and unfathomable.

Lei Wuji.

Lei Wuji's gaze swept across the vast square and landed directly on Su Yu.

Their gazes met silently in mid-air.

There was no murderous intent that sparked like wildfire.

There is only one kind of extreme restraint and scrutiny.
