"Crackle …" Yet another clap of thunder could be heard.
However, Chen Feng discovered that there were no traces of lightning in his surroundings.
Where did the sound of thunder come from?
At this moment, the sound of rapid footsteps could be heard. A few figures rushed up from the bottom of the stairs. It was obvious that they were cultivators who were trying to rush to the second floor.
Looking at the few figures rushing up the building, a wave of ecstasy suddenly emerged on Chen Feng's face.
"The heavens are truly helping me!" Chen Feng smiled happily in his heart as his spiritual energy shot out rapidly, closing in on the five cultivators who were running at full speed on the stairs.
In an instant, Chen Feng's spiritual energy became a huge net, tightly covering the five people.
"Pipa ~ ~"
Another lightning bolt, which was as thick as an arm, came down and struck towards one of the five warriors.
At the same time, everything within the lightning bolt was caught by Chen Feng.
An obscure fluctuation clearly appeared in front of Chen Feng's spiritual energy. Chen Feng's comprehension towards the fluctuation was already becoming clearer and clearer.
"Haha, since the heavens have given me such an opportunity, then I must understand the meaning of these energy waves!" Chen Feng was extremely determined and did not dare to split himself up.
"Pipa ~ ~"
"Pipa ~ ~"
"Rumble ~ ~ ~"
Lightning continued to strike down as Chen Feng's comprehension of the undulations became deeper and deeper. He seemed to have grasped something crucial. As long as a few more bolts of lightning struck, the undulations would be completely comprehended by him.
"Again! "Come quickly!" Chen Feng shouted inwardly as his spiritual energy continuously gushed out, not missing a single point.
"Pipa ~ ~"
"Pipa ~ ~"
Lightning continued to fall, and from time to time, there would be cultivators who could not withstand the power of the lightning and were turned into ashes by the lightning, leaving behind not even the slightest trace.
After a while, only Chen Feng and another cultivator remained on the staircase.
That cultivator was also on his last breath, as if a gust of wind could knock him down.
Another bolt of lightning would turn him and his companions into a cloud of dust.
Another bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket struck Chen Feng's body, completely dispersing the last bit of resistance within Chen Feng's body.
Every cell in his body had become incomparably fragile. Needless to say, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket would be able to instantly destroy him, even if it were a bolt of lightning as thick as his arm.
"Soon, I'll be able to completely comprehend the meaning of that fluctuation with another bolt of lightning!" Chen Feng struggled madly in his heart.
This was a gamble, a gamble with Chen Feng's life as the bet.
Who would the next bolt of lightning strike?
Should he split apart the dying cultivator or Chen Feng who was on the verge of collapsing?
A heaven, a hell!
If he were to strike that person, Chen Feng was confident that he would be able to comprehend the mysteries of the fluctuations. At that time, he would be able to take the final step and quickly leave the stairs. No matter how powerful the lightning was, it still wouldn't be able to harm him.
But if he was hacked in half, there was no need to doubt that he would be like the other cultivators who had climbed up the stairs. He would die without a trace of redemption.
Of course, Chen Feng had another choice. He immediately climbed the stairs, his life at ease. However, Chen Feng had a feeling that if he were to give up halfway, he would completely lose the right to sense these fluctuations.
Betting or not?
Chen Feng fell into a dilemma.
"Chen Feng, you idiot, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and come up!" Meng Qiu Ling's voice became even more anxious.
"Should I go up or not?" Hearing Meng Qiu Ling's anxious shout, Chen Feng suddenly hesitated. However, this trace of hesitation was quickly replaced by a strong conviction, "This is my fate, I absolutely cannot give up like this! Wealth comes from danger. If I don't go all out, when will I? "
With all his conviction, Chen Feng stood on the spot with even more determined steps.
His psychic power circulated around him, and once new lightning was formed, it would immediately wrap around him.
"Pipa ~ ~"
A bolt of lightning came very suddenly. However, after hearing the sound of the thunder, Chen Feng let out a sigh of relief.
This lightning should only be as thick as an arm. It seems that the target isn't him.
As expected, the lightning that appeared suddenly fell on the last person to reach the top. The latter let out a bloodcurdling scream, and its body instantly disintegrated into dust.
At the same time, Chen Feng's spiritual energy instantly permeated into that fluctuation. In that instant, Chen Feng felt his mind explode. For some unknown reason, he seemed to have gained a new understanding.
It was the throbbing of the lightning. Just like the lightning that was continuously striking down earlier, Chen Feng actually had a faint understanding of the essence of the lightning.
"The laws of thunder and lightning, they are actually the laws of thunder and lightning!" Chen Feng laughed heartily in his heart. His entire body was actually flashing with streaks of electric arcs as thin as hair.
At the same time, on Chen Feng's nascent soul forehead, a lightning symbol appeared out of nowhere. It was as if it was engraved on it from the start, without the slightest bit of arousal.
"Rumble ~ ~ ~"
A bolt of lightning as thick as a water bucket suddenly appeared and hacked towards the dying Chen Feng.
If this bolt of lightning had come earlier, it would have undoubtedly become Chen Feng's talisman of death. However, at this moment, Chen Feng was not the slightest bit flustered when he saw the descending bolt of lightning.
"Under the laws of thunder and lightning, any thunder and lightning will be mine to use!" Two streaks of lightning fiercely exploded out of Chen Feng's eyes. In the next moment, the lightning tightly wrapped around Chen Feng's body.
Enveloped by lightning, Chen Feng's weak body did not shatter at all. Instead, it gradually became stronger.
Moments later, the lightning disappeared and Chen Feng's aura reached its peak once again.
"Haha, from today onwards, I have another formidable trump card!" Chen Feng smiled confidently. Then, he walked up the stairs without any hesitation.
In the next moment, Chen Feng only felt his vision darken as his surroundings instantly changed.
At this moment, in a towering forest. The number of people here was much higher than the forest outside the Tower of Longevity. Great trees towered high in the sky, as if they were going to pierce through the heavens.
"You soul, you're finally willing to come out!" Meng Qiu Ling said angrily from the side.
"Hehe, I've encountered some small matters and have delayed it for a while!" Chen Feng smiled along with him, his eyes full of apology.
From Meng Qiu Ling's shout just now, Chen Feng knew that this violent woman cared about him quite a bit.
"Enough, hurry and go soak in that Spirit Gathering Pool!" Meng Qiu Ling's tone turned cold.
"Spirit Gathering Pool?" Chen Feng looked in the direction that Meng Qiu Ling was pointing at and discovered that there was a huge deep pool in the dense forest in the distance.
"This is the Spirit Gathering Pool? It really is extraordinary! " Looking at the clear pool water, Chen Feng's gaze became fervent.
