Chu Tian kowtowed three times towards Eunuch Zhu's father. As for why he did this, there were two layers of meanings contained within. The first was that he and Eunuch Zhu Yi were husband and wife, so it was obvious that they needed this sort of etiquette. The other was that Eunuch Zhu's father was Chu Shanyue's assistant general who was his trusted aide. It was worth it for him to do so.

After he was done, his father stupidly passed a jar of wine to him. The aroma of the wine wafted in the air. Chu very impolite, he unscrewed it and finished it in one gulp.

The others were all drunk. Even the old man Jing Tian sat in his chair and stroked his beard. Furthermore, it was already late in the night. After doing all this, the group of people arranged for them to return to their rooms to rest. Chu Wuwei had originally wanted to stay in the same room as Eunuch Zhu Yi, but upon seeing his threatening gaze, Chu Mu had no choice but to walk up to him and say, "Little brother, let's squeeze into a bed together tonight."

The officials looked at Chu Wuwei, then back at Eunuch Zhu Yi, wondering what the two of them were up to. Still, he nodded his head and agreed that Chu Tian should sleep on the same bed as him. Even though he knew it would be dangerous, he still gave up on the bamboo sword for his sister's happiness.

Chu Tianlang, however, did not know that the bamboo sword had been thinking so much and was so rotten that he could not bear to look at it.

Just as they were about to reach the room marked with bamboo swords, the sword suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He turned to Chu Yuan and said, "Brother-in-law, do you know what is the most iconic building in the Eunuch clan?"

Chu Yu thought back to the steel pavilion he had seen earlier. He pointed at the bamboo sword and asked, "Which pavilion are you talking about?"

Seeing how smart Chu Yu was, the official smiled and said, "This is the Thunder Hall!" He continued, "Let me tell you, although this Thunder Temple looks like it was constructed out of copper and iron, it's actually not. In the past, when we were mining ores, we found a meteor that fell from the sky, and it was so huge that some craftsmen carved it into the air, turning it into what looked like a pavilion. It took a long time before we managed to move it to the mountains."

Hearing this, Chu Feng naturally knew what the man with the bamboo sword was talking about. It was this pavilion.

But why was it called the Lightning Hall? Chu Feng was a bit confused. Could it be that it was because of the iron and steel that lightning and thunder had been attracted here? He heard the bamboo sword say, "The Thunder Pavilion has the ability to gather lightning and thunder. Whenever it rains, it absorbs lightning from the skies into the walls of the pavilion and stores it away."

Using it as a generator and building a light bulb flashlight was a good idea. But then again, although this was very good, but it was obvious that even though the Thunder Pavilion was very grand, to use it as a generator might be a waste of resources. Furthermore, the electricity it produced could not be used widely, so it was not a very beautiful thing to do.

Sure enough, the bamboo sword continued, "All these lightning are stored inside the walls, and normal people wouldn't be affected at all when they enter. You should know that the lightning tribulation is formed from the condensation of heaven and earth profound energy, and as long as one experiences a tribulation and absorbs the essence of the lightning tribulation, it's definitely a leap in strength. And, this Thunder Pavilion happens to have this effect as well.

"In the past, I had once formed a python that was in the midst of transforming into a flood dragon and was incomparably weak. I ate its inner core and thus obtained the strength of a flood dragon. This flood dragon not only gave me immense strength, it also bestowed me with several types of abilities, and the skeleton of the flood dragon was also forged into a bone light sword by the Eunuch clan's Sword Crafting Master. It is a weapon that is close to being an ordinary weapon."

When it came to mortal weapons, under Chu Wuwei's questioning, the bamboo sword told him the list of treasures and items.

Chu Feng secretly speculated about the rank of his Dragon Subduing God Staff, but his intuition told him that it was at least at the Spirit Stage. In the future, unless there was no other choice, he could not use the Dragon God's Staff at will. If this was seen by someone and spread out, then it would fall into the ears of the hidden forces, causing him to be in great trouble.

"The flood dragon's core gives me a more terrifying ability to absorb the world's mystical Qi than a normal person, and the stronger the ability to absorb the world's mystical Qi, it means that the ability to refine it is stronger. With this method, I'll take some time to cultivate in the Thunder Hall, draw out the lightning energy within it and refine it into the world's mystical Qi, then absorb it into my body and transform it into battle qi. Although this is very troublesome, and the power of thunder is also paralyzing, it's a form of torture to those who aren't able to resist it."

As he spoke, the eyes of the bamboo sword grew moist. "I trained in the Thunder Pavilion day and night. Even though it was troublesome, the mystical Qi I absorbed was more than ten times more pure than outside. This is also the reason why I advanced to a true essence warrior at this age." At this point, the official looked at Chu Yuan with a fervent gaze, "Brother-in-law, you're a bit younger than me. I wonder what fortuitous encounter you've had to be able to cultivate to such a level at such a young age? "I can feel that you can actually break through to become an Obsidian and True Essence Dou Zhe at any time. It's just that you have control over them."

"Cultivating both battle intent and fighting intent will bring about great benefits for the cultivator. It is not an exaggeration to say that a person who cultivates both battle intent and fighting intent will be unrivalled at the same level, but cultivating both battle intent and fighting spirit is extremely difficult. The amount of heaven and earth profound energy that he needs is not just a Dou Zhe and a lecturer combined, but more than ten times, or even twenty times. This is because it is very difficult to advance and it will waste a lot of youth. But I see that Brother-in-law, even if you train in both battle intent and martial intent, at this age, you are already about to step into the realm of True Essence Dou Saints and Obscure Realm. This is something that I find hard to imagine and I do not know of any fortuitous encounters, can you tell little brother about it so that I can broaden my horizons? "

Chu Tian's face was dark, but he shook his head and pretended to be profound: "Let's go to the Thunder Palace and take a look. Perhaps it would be better to not say it out loud …"
