Douluo: Martial Soul Thunder Dragon, Hundred Years of Glory

Chapter 77 Thundering Hell Vine (First Order Request)
"The place where the Thunder Hell Vine grows must be a place with dense thunder and lightning. This plant needs to absorb the power of thunder between heaven and earth to grow further, so it usually appears in areas with frequent thunder and lightning activities. These areas are often sparsely populated, and the deep mountains and old forests are the ideal habitat for the Thunder Hell Vine."

"According to that few words, the Thundering Hell Vine is a kind of existence that is at the top of the plant-type soul beasts from birth. It is born with wisdom. When it just grows out, it is like a bamboo shoot with only a small section. The place where it grows must be a place with dense lightning. It can only develop when it rains and thunders. Every time it is struck by lightning, it will become stronger. A hundred lightning strikes are equivalent to one year of training for an ordinary soul beast."

"Thunder is the most violent of all natural forces. It is under the test of thunder that the Thunder Hell Vine continues to grow. At the beginning, its growth was very slow and difficult, because it had to wait for natural thunder to descend on it before it could develop."

"So, while other soul beasts practice for one year, it may take it ten years to gather enough thunder for a hundred times. It is more than ten times slower than the practice of ordinary soul beasts."

“However, as time goes by, once the Thundering Hell Vine is able to cultivate to the Hundred Years Realm, then the situation will change dramatically.”

"Thunder Hell Vine that has reached a hundred years of cultivation can actively attract thunder during thunderstorms and let thunder bombard itself. It can often get hundreds of thunder bombardments overnight, although by that time, it will not only improve its cultivation a hundred times. It’s been a year of thunder, but the speed of cultivation will be greatly increased.”

"I think this lightning-attracting land is not entirely formed naturally." Yun Yibai's gaze once again turned to the soul beast that was suspected to be the Thundering Hell Vine.

"Also because of its own characteristics, once the Thundering Hell Vine is cultivated to a certain level, its destructive power will be extremely terrifying, often causing a spectacular scene of a thunder pool appearing in an area. And this thunder pool will continue to expand as the Thundering Hell Vine itself becomes stronger, until it swallows up everything around it."

"Thunder Hell Vine, which has been cultivated for ten thousand years, is enough to change the celestial phenomena, bring thunder to the world, and control the power of thunder to destroy everything in the outside world."

"Therefore, once the Thunder Hell Vine with this level of cultivation appears, it will inevitably cause disaster in this corner of the world. Only the super strong can destroy it."

"But the Thundering Hell Vine also has a drawback. It relies on constantly absorbing thunder to improve itself. After reaching a certain level, the destructive thunder is compressed and the destructive power is too strong, making it possible for it to self-destruct at any time."

"Most of the Thundering Hell Vine appear in deep mountains and old forests, growing in uninhabited places, but they will eventually be destroyed in the process of their growth."

"Depending on the growth experiences of different Thundering Hell Vines, they will generally self-destruct between 20,000 and 50,000 years. There are very few Thundering Hell Vines that can cultivate for more than 50,000 years."

It was also the first time that Yang Wudi heard about a soul beast called the Thundering Hell Vine.

"So, the reason why there is such a big change in the celestial phenomena here is because of this soul beast. It is it that attracted these thunders here!"

"It seems that following here does pay off."

“If it is true as you said, and the soul beast in front of us is really the Thundering Hell Vine, can you tell the age of this soul beast?” Yang Wudi asked directly.

"This Thundering Hell Vine should be between 30,000 and 40,000 years old. I have never seen a soul beast like the Thundering Hell Vine before, so I can only judge based on the information recorded in ancient books."

"Under the current circumstances, I can't tell whether this Thundering Hell Vine is cultivating or overcoming the tribulation."

"Overcoming the tribulation?" It was the first time that Yang Wudi heard this.

"Ancient books record that after the Thundering Hell Vine has been in existence for ten thousand years, every ten thousand years, there will be such thunder that will fall to stop them. The soul masters who knew about this in the past called it "crossing the tribulation."

"I see."

"Now there is one more choice. Would you like this one?" "Although rationally speaking, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex is more suitable for me, my inner impulse tells me that it wants the spirit ring of the Thundering Hell Vine more."

"Hey hey hey! You kid!"

"You haven't read those books in vain. This Thundering Hell Vine is obviously rarer than the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex soul beast."

"However, Yun Yi, have you noticed the skeletons around this valley? Although these skeletons are covered by sand and worn by lightning, I can still find them even if they are only slightly exposed."

Yang Wudi, the Contra, has enough mental power to be able to conduct investigations, but this kind of investigation is limited to a certain distance.

Yun Yibai really didn't notice this. After Yang Wudi finished speaking, his eyes glowed with a faint blue light.

After taking the Wangchuanqiushui Dew, not only did his mental power break through to the level of Soul King when he was a Soul Sect, but his eyes were also trained to have Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils, which could see through all kinds of strange objects.

As his eyes swept over, the skeletons half-covered by wind and sand and worn by thunder gradually revealed their full appearance in his eyes.

"Sure enough, these skeletons...are actually from soul beasts!"

Yang Wudi nodded, his expression still solemn: "There are so many soul beast skeletons here, which proves that a fierce battle must have taken place here before."

"And the culprit is most likely the Thundering Hell Vine that exhales thunder."

He didn't notice it at first, but after he noticed it, Yun Yibai felt a strong sense of death in this valley. However, the thunder was raging here, so how could the breath of death stay for a long time under the masculine thunder.

"This situation is probably not the first time. These soul beasts gathered together and first fought for the Thundering Hell Vine that seemed to be seriously injured. In the end, the Thundering Hell Vine ended the whole battle."

"Then turn the flesh and blood of these soul beasts into nutrients for its growth."

“And the reason why these soul beasts flock here is probably because of this Thundering Hell Vine.”

"Such a strange Thunder Hell Vine is a coveted tonic for any soul beast with the thunder attribute."

"Based on my many years of experience in refining medicine, this plant-based soul beast Thunder Hell Vine is not inferior to those top-level medicinal herbs!"

In fact, there is no experience at all. It is simply because there are so many soul beasts here coveting the Thundering Hell Vine. There are very few plant-type soul beasts that can be favored by soul beasts.

"Senior Yang is right. This Thundering Hell Vine is a plant after all." Yun Yibai really didn't think of the Thundering Hell Vine as a medicinal herb.

Now that I think about it, a soul beast that can be promoted to ten thousand years old should have certain medicinal properties.
