Chapter 209 Thunder Valley Temple

Shi Chen soared into the air, his spiritual power surging, and he flew with the wind, rushing towards the temple.

As the distance gradually closed, he felt the oppression brought by the powerful force of thunder and lightning. However, Shi Chen had no intention of retreating. Instead, he increased his speed and his figure turned into a stream of light in the sky.

As he approached the temple, the dense blue arcs of electricity seemed to sense his approach and became increasingly violent, continuously stretching and pouncing towards him.

Click!

An arc of electricity instantly struck Shi Chen, causing him to shudder before regaining his composure. The arc merely numbed him slightly, and as soon as the Body Forging Technique was activated, he was back to normal.

The dark clouds and lightning in the sky seemed to have the ability to think. They found that the ants hit by the electric arc did not lose consciousness. They fell from the sky and became more violent. The entire dark sky suddenly became bright.

Rumble!

Three huge bolts of lightning fell from the sky, striking towards Shi Chen's head. When they were ten feet above his head, they merged into one.

Shi Chen's eyes narrowed as he faced the three powerful lightning bolts that merged into one. He wanted to withstand the lightning attack to test the effectiveness of the Body Forging Technique, but he was also worried that his body could not withstand the attack.

Suddenly, he thought of how he had advanced several times, each time struck by purple lightning, and in the end, he hadn't survived. That purple lightning, despite its destructive power, hadn't been able to kill him. The lightning in the Thunder Valley was only white, and its power was far inferior to the purple lightning.

He suddenly relaxed, stood still, and offered no resistance, allowing the lightning from the sky to strike him.

Rumble!

Click!

Click!

In less than three breaths, Shi Chen was struck by ten lightning bolts in mid-air, his whole body was smoking and his hair was burnt yellow.

A gust of wind blew, the smoke dissipated, and Shi Chen stood still in the air, glaring at the dark clouds and lightning in the sky.

The dark clouds in the sky stopped rolling, the lightning disappeared into the clouds, and the entire Thunder Valley seemed to have stopped in an instant.

After a few moments, the dark clouds began to roll again, and lightning appeared in the clouds.

Shi Chen looked at the sky that had returned to normal, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile. Such powerful thunder could only damage the epidermis and hair, and only cause temporary numbness to his body, and not much damage.

After testing, the dark cloud lightning failed to severely damage the human race below, so it had to give up attacking him and continue bombarding the temple.

Shi Chen landed in front of the temple, his spiritual energy surging. Instantly, his body was completely restored to normal. He observed the temple. Above the temple door stood a large blue plaque with ancient characters, "Thunderbolt." The gate was open, and the outer walls were golden, engraved with mysterious runes, with flashes of lightning interspersed between them.

From outside the temple gate, one can see a huge circular stone pillar standing in the center of the hall, reaching straight to the roof. In the middle of the stone pillar, there is a cave door. The cave door is pitch black, with only occasional flashes of lightning providing a momentary light.

As soon as he stepped into the Thunder Temple, Shi Chen stopped, closed his eyes, and sensed his surroundings.

It was a very strange feeling, like entering someone else's body. My body felt a faint expulsion, and my mind sensed a sense of surveillance, which was vague.

A moment later, Shi Chen suddenly opened his eyes, frowned, and looked around the temple vigilantly, but found nothing special. He scanned the temple with his spiritual sense, trying to understand this strange phenomenon.

Deep down in his heart, he was resisting this repulsive force and reminding Shi Chen that he should leave here as soon as possible.

The environment of this temple is very suitable for the formation of thunder beads. Lightning strikes the temple all the time, and the violent electric arcs generated will slowly accumulate the power of thunder and lightning and form thunder beads as long as they can be directed to a suitable place.

Shi Chen lingered at the temple gate for a long time and never took the second step into the temple. He measured the uneasiness in his heart and knew that whenever there was danger, this uneasy warning in his heart was the instinct he relied on to escape.

Just when he was at a loss for choice, three Jindan sword cultivators appeared on the mountain he had come from behind. Shi Chen turned around and looked at each other.

In less than a minute, the three sword cultivators braved the thunder and arrived in front of the temple.

Shi Chen secretly used his spiritual sense to investigate the three of them as soon as they appeared. They rushed all the way to the temple. The three of them were in a very bad state, each of them had been struck by lightning dozens of times.

As soon as the three of them reached the front of the hall, they collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath as if they were trying to suck all the air out of the world. Their clothes were already tattered, charred fragments hanging from their bodies, swaying gently in the breeze.

Senior Brother Liang, the leader, had his hair tied up in a mess, with wisps of smoke rising from the burnt ends. His face was black and purple from the lightning, and his eyes were filled with fatigue and fear.

Senior Brother Li Hua's situation was even worse than Senior Brother Liang's. There were several cracks on the magic shield in his hand, and the armor on his body was bumpy. Some places were even sunken, revealing the burned skin. The blood and charred flesh mixed together, which was shocking.

Junior Brother Yu was already lying on the ground, his body trembling constantly, with sparks of electricity occasionally emanating from his body. Blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, dripping down his chin. His robes were nearly completely burned, leaving only a few scraps of cloth barely covering his vital parts.

The three men's muscles trembled uncontrollably, clearly still recovering from the terrifying lightning strike. Senior Brother Liang and Li Hua exchanged a glance, then sat cross-legged and began to heal their wounds. Li Hua, standing nearby, stared at Shi Chen, fearing he might suddenly attack them.

A quarter of an hour later, Senior Brother Liang opened his eyes, let out a long breath, looked at Li Hua, and made eye contact.

After Li Hua sat cross-legged to heal his wounds, he stood up and walked to Junior Brother Yu, took out a pill and fed it to him.

After doing all this, he walked up to Shi Chen, bowed and said, "We, disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect, have been ordered by the sect to come and destroy the Thunder Devouring Beast. We came across the temple and discovered that it was nurturing treasures, so we came here to seek opportunities."

"Oh," Shi Chen took a step forward and walked out of the hall. The sense of surveillance disappeared immediately, and he said lightly: "Since you are here to hunt for treasure, you three can do whatever you want.

As he spoke, Shi Chen stepped aside a few steps, turned to face the temple, and began to observe it intently.

"This?" Senior Brother Liang suddenly became suspicious and asked, "Fellow Daoist, why don't you go into the temple to look for treasure opportunities?"

"This palace is a little strange and needs to be carefully investigated." Shi Chen was slightly angry and replied in a cold voice: "If you have recovered well, you can go in and explore. Don't bother me."

Senior Brother Liang was puzzled. This cultivator had been quite amiable just a moment ago, not taking advantage of the three of us being injured and attacking us. But now, just by asking one more question, his tone had turned so cold. Although he felt dissatisfied, he realized that they were in a dangerous situation and it was not appropriate to make enemies. He suppressed his emotion and said with an apologetic smile, "Don't blame me, fellow Daoist. I was rude."

Shi Chen snorted coldly, ignored it, and carefully explored the temple on his own.

Senior Brother Liang was a little embarrassed, debating whether he should go in and explore first. He was also worried that his two junior brothers were recuperating here without anyone to look after them. If anything went wrong, Elder Yu of the sect would definitely blame them.

Senior Brother Liang's eyes darted around, puzzled. "The Falling Thunder Valley has been sealed off by the sect, so how could this cultivator be here?" His divine sense revealed a vague understanding of his cultivation, resembling a Golden Core or Nascent Soul. He shouldn't be pitted against him.

Senior Brother Liang had no choice but to return to his two junior brothers in disappointment and take on the responsibility of protecting the law.

A quarter of an hour later, Shi Chen's spiritual sense explored the temple several times, but did not find any special suspicious points. Only the stone pillar cave door was unable to enter with his spiritual sense.

It shouldn't be like that. That vague feeling of being watched is like being controlled by someone's spiritual consciousness.

Just as Shi Chen was lost in thought, Li Hua finished healing his wounds, stood up, and exchanged glances with Senior Brother Liang.

Half an hour later, Junior Brother Yu recovered from his injuries and stood up.

The three of them chatted for a while, and after a few minutes, Junior Brother Yu walked up behind Shi Chen, clasped his hands and bowed, saying, "Fellow Daoist, we are honored! The three of us are disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect. This is Senior Brother Liang Daoqi, this is Senior Brother Li Hua, and my name is Yu Xingman. We came here because of the Thunder Devourer Beast, but unfortunately, the beast was seriously injured and escaped. We passed by this place and came across a temple nurturing treasures. Not wanting to miss the opportunity, we took the risk and came here. Now the three of us are going to enter the temple to investigate. I wonder if you would like to join us?"

Shi Chen's tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Why should he think so much? These three people were from the Spirit Sword Sect, and this was their territory. They would have news about the secret realm, adventures, or temples in the Thunder Valley.

He turned around and looked at the three people, wondering how to get information about this place from them.

Yu Xingman spoke very respectfully, his eyes full of anticipation, his face showing a hint of nervousness, and a dense layer of sweat beads on his forehead.

Liang Daoqi held the sword yoke in both hands, his eyes full of anticipation, but his face was filled with worry.

Li Hua clenched his fists, his body tense, his eyes moving back and forth between Shi Chen and the temple, his expression slightly anxious.

"I don't know much about this temple. It's in the territory of your Lingjian Sect. I believe you should know a lot of information about it. Could you tell me a thing or two?" Shi Chen said.

"Let me explain the situation of this temple to you, senior," Liang Daoqi said as he walked over to Yu Xingman. "The Falling Thunder Valley Temple has been famous for a long time. Whenever the temple appears, the accumulated thunder gives birth to treasures. The time and location are random, and it all depends on chance. As long as you break through the thunder array outside the temple and enter the temple to explore, you will obtain third or fourth level thunder spiritual objects."

"Are there any traps, formations or other dangers in the temple?" Shi Chen asked.

Liang Daoqi frowned and said, "Those who enter the temple to search for treasures are mostly sword cultivators from our sect, and they have not left any records of the temple's dangers."

Before Shi Chen could ask more, Li Hua said, "If you are willing to join the three of us in the exploration, we will split the treasures we find in half."

Shi Chen didn't agree. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Is there any record of Thunderbolt Pearl appearing among the treasures produced by the temple in the past?"

"There have been several records. Are you looking for the Thunderbolt Pearl, senior?" Liang Daoqi frowned and said.

"I came to Luolei Valley to look for the Thunderbolt Pearl, but I haven't found it yet. I wonder if you have any information? I can exchange it with elixirs or spiritual objects." Shi Chen said.

"There are Thunderbolt Pearls in the sect's treasury," Li Hua glanced at Yu Xingman, his eyes filled with longing as he said, "but we are not qualified to redeem them."

Shi Chen realized what Li Hua meant by that look. Among these three people, only Yu Xing had a chance to exchange for the Thunderbolt Pearl in the Lingjian Sect's treasury.

"I also left a message outside Luolei Valley, saying that you can exchange Thunderbolt Beads for Golden Yuan Pills. You can exchange them, or you can trade with me." Shi Chen looked at Yu Xingman and said with a smile on his face.

After a moment of silence, Liang Daoqi finally spoke up, "Senior, why don't you go into the temple with us and explore? There might be a Thunderbolt Pearl inside."
