Dragon Lord: Starting from the daily settlement

(Brothers, today's data showdown is here, so those of you who are reading this book, please take a look.)

A flash of lightning appeared on Zhou Yan's horn, and a bolt of thunder shot straight out from it, heading straight for the tribulation clouds in the sky.

In a short while, it disappeared into the clouds like a clay ox sinking into the sea.

The tribulation clouds that were about to dissipate now seemed to have been provoked and began to coalesce again.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky.

Seeing this, Yun Luo froze instantly. After a few moments, she stammered and asked.

"Your Majesty... this..."

Beside him, Xuan Yi was also shocked, but he didn't say anything and silently recovered from his injuries.

Ignoring both, Zhou Yan revealed his true form and charged straight towards the tribulation clouds.

This is the tribulation cloud that Xuan Yi experienced when breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage. The power of the heavenly lightning is much weaker than when he broke through, making it perfect for cultivating the Thunder-Forging Golden Bone technique.

Thus, under the watchful eyes of both, his entire body, like a long spear, pierced directly into the clouds of tribulation.

Within the clouds, a pitch-black expanse, Zhou Yan writhed and stirred the tribulation clouds with unrestrained force.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble!"

He parted the clouds and casually pushed them aside, creating an open space. Suddenly, thunder roared, and several bolts of lightning, bright and clear, hurtled towards him.

"Bang~ Bang~"

In an instant, Zhou Yan was struck by lightning, and large patches of scales on his body were shattered, turning into ashes that dissipated into the clouds.

He couldn't help but let out a groan of pain, but his face showed little sign of suffering; instead, it was filled with joy.

As soon as he opened his mouth, his bones emitted a golden light, swallowing a bolt of lightning that struck him.

A series of crackling sounds suddenly came from Zhou Yan's abdomen. He dared not be careless and quickly activated the Thunder-Forging Golden Bone. Thunder patterns appeared on his bones, refining the heavenly thunder in his abdomen.

At the same time, more heavenly lightning struck from within the tribulation clouds. At this moment, Zhou Yan no longer tried to withstand it head-on, but instead turned his body and rolled continuously in the clouds to avoid the bolts of heavenly lightning.

Within his body, the heavenly lightning was continuously refined, transforming into streams of pure lightning essence that dispersed towards his spine.

After an incense stick had burned for a while, he slowly opened his mouth, and a wisp of black smoke rose slowly. On his spine, a bone slowly emitted a golden light.

After letting out a burp, Zhou Yan didn't linger. He opened his mouth and swallowed another bolt of heavenly lightning, beginning to refine it.

Then came the third, the fourth, the fifth...

As the devoured heavenly lightning grew larger, Zhou Yan's movements became increasingly skilled. Half an hour later, the fifth bolt of heavenly lightning was completely refined. Within his body, on his spine, the fourth golden bone slowly emerged, with golden lightning patterns constantly flowing across it, emitting bursts of subtle lightning that stimulated the surrounding flesh.

Swinging his body, which was now ten feet longer than before, and looking at the surrounding tribulation clouds, Zhou Yan opened his mouth again.

He thought to himself, "Now I should be able to swallow two bolts of heavenly lightning at the same time."

However, after searching the surrounding tribulation clouds for a long time, he did not find a single bolt of heavenly lightning.

Ok?

What's going on? A wave of doubt immediately washed over him.

Just then, a muffled thunderclap suddenly came from the clouds, and a dangerous aura swept over them. Zhou Yan's expression changed instantly.

Lightning bolts appeared on his body, transforming into several lightning spears that shot forward. He also spat out heavy water, forming a black shield as thick as a city wall in front of him.

Within the calamity clouds, a golden bolt of lightning pierced through the clouds and fell straight down, instantly shattering several lightning spears.

Immediately afterwards, it struck the heavy water shield, shattering it in an instant, and then crashed heavily onto Zhou Yan.

In an instant, Zhou Yan felt a pain that touched his soul sweep over his entire body, causing him to roar involuntarily.

Just then, several muffled thunderclaps sounded from within the clouds of calamity.

Again?

Zhou Yan's expression changed, and he dared not linger there any longer. He immediately turned around and flashed downwards.

On the water's surface, Xuan Yi and Yun Luo stayed together, engaging in their own cultivation.

Suddenly, the two felt a darkness before their eyes and found themselves underwater.

Above the water, two golden bolts of lightning struck, instantly enveloping an area of ​​dozens of miles in their power.

"Your Majesty, this is...?"

Beneath the water's surface, the lightning dissipated, and Xuan Yi asked tremblingly. He and Yun Luo looked up, their eyes filled with shock.

"It's nothing, let's go back to the manor." Zhou Yan said calmly, suppressing the golden lightning on his body.

Then, with a flick of its claws, the dragon vanished from the spot, carrying the two away.

As Zhou Yan departed, the lightning tribulation in the sky slowly dissipated, and peace returned.

Back at the Water Mansion, after setting Xuan Yi and the other person down, Zhou Yan said, "You two should cultivate on your own and consolidate your foundation. I need to go into seclusion for a while."

Having said that, he transformed into a dragon-man and appeared inside the main hall.

Sitting on the ice bed, a slight coolness rose, slowly reducing the pain all over his body. At this moment, Zhou Yan let out a groan of pain.

Within his body, the power of the golden lightning continued to rage, so he quickly activated his Thunder-Forging Golden Bone technique and began to refine it.

At the same time, he took out drops of the Nether Spring and dripped them into his mouth to accelerate the refining process.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, four hours have passed.

Inside the main hall, amidst the flowing water, tiny bolts of lightning constantly leaped. In the center, Zhou Yan, resting on the ice bed, had grown several feet taller, reaching a height of one and a half feet. The single horn on his forehead now gleamed with golden light, upon which a thin, weak arc of golden lightning continuously danced.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a thunderclap rose from the ground. Zhou Yan opened his eyes, and two golden beams shot out, instantly engulfing the entire hall in lightning.

Immediately afterwards, he flicked his finger, and all the lightning gathered in his hand again before returning to his body.

As he felt the golden lightning being completely refined, a hint of joy appeared in Zhou Yan's eyes.

With just this one bolt of lightning, he gained twelve more golden bones. If it happened a few more times, who knows how many more he would gain.

However, he quickly banished the thought from his mind.

My cultivation is still not up to par. I can barely withstand this one golden lightning bolt. If a few more come, I'm afraid I'll die today.

I must be more careful when using lightning for cultivation in the future.

After a moment of reflection, Zhou Yan then focused his gaze on the black coffin in the corner. With a thought, the black coffin immediately floated over.

Manipulating the heavy water, the coffin door was opened, and a snoring sound rang out.

"Whoosh whoosh~"

Inside the black coffin, Batu stood with his head resting to one side, fast asleep.

Seeing this, Zhou Yan's lips twitched involuntarily, and black lines appeared on his forehead.

This guy is really a weirdo!

He then flicked his wrist, and a dozen or so drops of heavy water appeared, falling on him like bullets.

"Ah~"
