The three felt bitter, but dared not resist, and obediently allowed him to plunder them.

As expected, the three of them combined were not even half as rich as the bearded man. They only found two thousand catties of Origin and a few spiritual artifacts on them. However, they did find two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs on the only female cultivator, which was a pleasant surprise.

Li Wangxian, who had suddenly become rich, was in a better mood than the weather. Although the weather wasn't great, it didn't matter. He thanked the bearded man and his companions before leaving.

"They actually thanked us..." The female cultivator's lips were trembling with anger. They, the "Good Thieves," had been rampant in Thunder City for so many years, when had they ever suffered such a great loss?

What's most infuriating is that the person was very sincere when he said thank you. They could tell that he was genuinely grateful that they chose to rob him, allowing him to make such a big profit. This is simply killing him and hurting his spirit!

"What a disgrace! He actually thanked the robbers! Doesn't he have any morals at all?"

Seeing the other person's cheerful figure even while flying, the young, dark-faced male cultivator's face darkened even more, and he was already bursting with a bellyful of curses.

But just then, Li Wangxian seemed to sense something in the distance, turned around and looked back, and even seemed to smile.

The dark-faced male cultivator immediately shut his mouth, not daring to utter a curse, since the distance wasn't too far for a cultivator.

Only after Li Wangxian was completely out of sight did the group dare to vent their anger by cursing. Then, they were led away by the bearded man. After all, they were in bad shape and had offended quite a few people. If they didn't run away, they might really lose their lives.

The teleportation array wasn't far from Thunder City, and Li Wangxian quickly flew to the location.

Lei City was unlike any city he had ever seen before. It lacked the exquisite beauty of carved railings, pavilions, and towers, and instead exuded a rugged charm, evident from the city gates to the streets, buildings, and residences.

Upon entering the city, the most striking sight was the stone houses, including many private residences, inns, and even some sect strongholds.

Li Wangxian was puzzled, but he understood after asking some passersby.

Although Thunder City also has a magic array to protect against lightning, one of the city's purposes is to draw lightning to hone cultivators' skills. In addition, the sea of ​​lightning is so vast that the magic array, despite being repaired repeatedly, cannot last long under the constant bombardment. Therefore, lightning often strikes the city. Thus, the sturdiness of a house becomes a crucial factor in whether one can save their life in critical moments.

Among these materials, stones are definitely more durable than divine metals, but they are also better at conducting lightning. Wood has a certain insulating effect, but divine wood is too precious for ordinary people to afford and is also prone to catching fire. Therefore, stones become the best choice.

Then, Li Wangxian quickly found out enough information. Even a kind old man noticed that he was new and kindly pointed out the location of the Thunder Platform to him.

The Thunder Platform is where Thunder City's magic array draws in external lightning. Its power is controlled by the array, allowing people to be effectively tempered without actually harming their lives. It is one of Thunder City's treasure troves, and many people come here specifically for this purpose.

Chapter 18 Ninefold Thunder Domain

Li Wangxian was very interested in this, so he walked towards one of the Thunder Platforms.

Upon arriving at his destination, he was slightly disappointed. It was just a huge rock. The Thunder Platform itself was nothing special. What was special was the array that could attract thunder and imprison people inside, providing them with enough thunder power for tempering or enlightenment.

Li Wangxian, who was curious to see what kind of lightning power this Thunder Platform could attract and how effective it would be, stayed behind and then found an opportunity to infiltrate the most terrifying intelligence organization in the world of "Covering the Sky".

But before he could get any information about the secret, he heard some news about himself, which left him with mixed feelings.

"Have you heard? The Good Thief was just dealt with by a newly arrived Holy Son."

"Really? The Good Thieves are known for their sharp eyes and caution, why would they attack a Holy Son?"

Some passersby were surprised and puzzled, after all, this group had been living a carefree life in Thunder City for many years.

Although they only robbed and didn't kill, and they only targeted some newly arrived cultivators, so they didn't really incur the wrath of the masses, it wasn't like no experts had ever come looking for trouble with them. But this group was notoriously slippery, so how could they have been defeated so easily?

"It's true. Someone saw it with their own eyes. The Holy Son was very young, said to be only thirteen or fourteen years old. He was dressed very simply, and there were no protectors following him. Then the Good Thief followed him, but was eventually suppressed by the Holy Son."

One of the cultivators answered. He was a young male cultivator who was very excited because he had been robbed by this group of people when he arrived a few days ago. He had just obtained the thousand-year-old deer antler and hadn't even had a chance to use it before these damned bastards stole it.

"It's a pity that the Holy Son is too kind. He should have released them, or at least imprisoned them in the Thunder Prison for a thousand years!"

Everyone was taken aback by his excited expression.

This looks like it has a story behind it!

"Brother...were you robbed?" someone asked tentatively.

"That's right, those bastards! Poor me, my thousand-year-old deer antler! I went through so much trouble to get it! These bastards should be suppressed for a thousand or ten thousand years."

The young male cultivator made no attempt to hide it, wailing incessantly at the mere mention of his elixir.

"Oh, a thousand-year-old deer antler! That's really a pity, it's heartbreaking. They should be suppressed for ten thousand years."

A middle-aged male cultivator loudly echoed, winning the young man's favor. He immediately pressed his advantage, asking, "I... I have a friend who wants to know where he can buy deer antler?"

Li Wangxian was stunned. He didn't expect that even after transmigrating to the cultivation world, his skill of creating friends out of nothing was still shining brightly.

The young male cultivator looked at the middle-aged man with a knowing smile on his face. He didn't mince words and directly explained that he had a friend from the demon race who had paid a considerable price to obtain it.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged male cultivator's smile widened. He wasn't afraid of the price; he was only afraid of not being able to buy it. He immediately used telepathy to negotiate the price with the young man.

Li Wangxian's lips twitched. He clearly saw more than one cultivator "privately chatting" with the kidnapped young man. Could it be that cultivators also feel weak?

This is utter nonsense!

After this private chat, the atmosphere became even more lively, and a tacit understanding that everyone was friends naturally arose.

Even Li Wangxian was no exception. Although he didn't get involved, these guys felt a strange sense of superiority as adults because he looked like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy.

She was quite affectionate towards him, which was really outrageous.

However, in doing so, he did hear a lot of information, such as that the Thunder Platform also has different levels, and the Thunder Sea outside the city is divided into nine levels according to its power, which is called the Nine-Level Thunder Prison by the locals. It is said that in the Thunder Prison at the very center, there is a divine object comparable to the peerless dragon marrow being nurtured.

Perhaps sensing that Li Wangxian was a newcomer after asking so many questions, the young male cultivator specifically reminded him that if he brought any spiritual herbs, it would be best to exchange them for healing holy medicines at the Medicine King Hall. The prices there were fairer, and the holy medicines were the most effective, having a miraculous effect on treating damage caused by lightning.

Li Wangxian thanked him sincerely. He was planning to visit the Ninefold Thunder Prison, so this information was very necessary, since simple spiritual herbs were definitely not as effective as specific healing medicines.

"Oh, speaking of which, Brother Li, you just arrived today too. You look about thirteen or fourteen years old, and you look a lot like the legendary Holy Son!"

At this point, a middle-aged male friend discovered the blind spot.

"Now that you mention it, it really is true! And they're even wearing the same white robes." The young male cultivator was taken aback, then quickly looked Li Wangxian up and down.

"That's right, you look about thirteen or fourteen years old, very handsome, and have a special kind of charm. It really is you, Holy Son."

The young male cultivator was very excited. After learning that the good thief had been dealt with, he had carefully inquired with other cultivators who knew the details. Now, the more he looked at Li Wangxian, the more he resembled the person who had described him.

Li Wangxian was helpless. It was true that the strangers in this world were terrifying. He had only made one move and he had already been exposed. Fortunately, he had changed his appearance and was just using a disguise, so it didn't matter.

The young male asura Luo Yang was very excited to have received Li Wangxian's approval. He immediately thanked Li Wangxian for venting his anger.

Then, it was a great pity that Li Wangxian had not brought the good thief to Leicheng Town to suppress him.

Then, the middle-aged male cultivator Peng Tao said something that made Li Wangxian wish he could go out immediately and bring the bearded man and his companions back.

Because those people had a reward of five thousand catties of elixir, they really missed out on a windfall!

Li Wangxian felt a pang of heartache, but his face remained impassive. This compelled the others to sigh in admiration; he truly was a holy son of a great sect, possessing profound knowledge and experience. He had missed out on the Five Thousand Origins without a trace of regret.

Since things had already come to this, Li Wangxian didn't stand on ceremony and inquired about all the details of the Ninefold Thunder Prison from them.

The group was very perceptive and immediately realized that Li Wangxian intended to go directly outside the city to hone his skills, rather than using the Thunder Platform in the city for training and adaptation.

This led them to speculate that the Holy Son probably didn't care about the lightning power drawn by the Thunder Platform in the city, but instead wanted to go directly into the Ninefold Thunder Domain for brutal training.

Indeed, that was pretty much the case. Li Wangxian thought so too. After observing, he found that the lightning drawn by the low-level Thunder Platform had no effect on training his golden body, while the high-level one was too ostentatious and not suitable for him.

Knowing his plans, Luo Yang enthusiastically led him to the Medicine King Hall to exchange for holy healing medicine, telling him all sorts of rumors he knew.

Finally, when Li Wangxian was leaving the city, he stammered and asked if he could keep the thousand-year-old deer antler for him, promising to exchange it for two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs in a few days.

Li Wangxian smiled and nodded in agreement.

Chapter 19 The Battle of the Holy Sons

As soon as Li Wangxian and his companions left the city, before they even set off for the Ninefold Thunder Domain, they saw many cultivators calling out to their friends and heading excitedly towards the Thunder Domain in twos and threes.

Before they could even ask, the group of cultivators leaked the news.

"A holy son is about to duel outside the Ninefold Thunder Domain!"

"Is it true? Are those two holy sons going to have a showdown?"

A few unsuspecting cultivators also got excited and hurriedly asked more questions.

"It's a duel between Ye Liuyun of the Qingtian Sect and the Holy Son of the Changsheng Temple."

A knowledgeable cultivator spoke up, and as soon as he finished speaking, a commotion and clamor erupted outside Thunder City.

"What? We'll get to see the Three Missing Taoist make a move today?"

Someone screamed in alarm, the sound so loud that it even reached the city, causing a huge uproar.

The Three-Missing Taoist, the divine son of the Longevity Temple in the Underworld, is a renowned prodigy throughout the entire Ziwei realm! His astonishing talent has led people to believe that he possesses imperial potential.

How could the world not be astonished when such a peerless genius, who has the potential to become an emperor, is about to make his move here and display his unparalleled combat power?

Some cultivators still remember that a few years ago, when the Three-Lacking Daoist Siji emerged from the world to gain experience, some hostile forces did not want this terrifying young man with imperial potential to grow up, so they secretly sent many senior cultivators in the Dragon Transformation Realm to try to eliminate him.

However, he managed to defeat many experts at the Dragon Transformation Realm and escape successfully. Subsequently, the purge of the Longevity Temple stirred up boundless turmoil on the ancient star of Ziwei.

Now that such a young man, who once stirred up boundless winds and clouds and amazed the entire Ziwei, is about to make his move here, how can people not be excited?

The place was in an uproar. People were full of anticipation for this battle, and everyone wished they could fly to the outside of the Thunder Domain to watch this battle that was destined to shake the ancient star of Ziwei.

Even Li Wangxian was somewhat interested at this moment, although apart from Yin Tiande, who had not yet officially emerged, he did not consider anyone else in the entire Ziwei Star Region to be his opponent.

However, Sanque Daoist and Lu Ya are rare talents who have reached the seventh level of the Forbidden Realm. They cannot be said to be weak. Moreover, if their three souls are united and Sanque Daoist is transformed into Wuque Daoist, they may be able to reach the eighth level of the Forbidden Realm.

However, at this moment, the knowledgeable cultivator who had just revealed that it was the two holy sons who were going to fight poured cold water on everyone, saying: "Well, perhaps I misspoke. Although it is the holy son of the Longevity Temple and Ye Liuyun of the Azure Heaven Sect who are fighting, it is not the Three Missing Daoist."

"What nonsense are you spouting? Do you even know anything about this? Everyone on the entire Ziwei Ancient Star knows that the Holy Son of the Longevity Temple is the Three-Missing Daoist." Someone complained, feeling that this person was unreliable.

"I know that Daoist Sanque is the Holy Son of the Longevity Temple, but that doesn't mean there aren't any other 'Holy Sons' in the Longevity Temple besides him."

Upon hearing this, some well-informed cultivators felt a jolt of realization, as if they had figured something out.

"No, Changsheng Temple does indeed have another Holy Son, Xu Sheng, who was once a candidate for Holy Son along with Sanque Daoren but failed to win the position."

"Heavens! It's Xu Sheng! Yes, if it's him, how could he be weaker than that Holy Son? You know, he only failed because his opponent was the Three-Missing Daoist!"

A commotion arose from the crowd. At this moment, some people remembered the name Xu Sheng, a "holy son" who was born at the wrong time, who once shone brightly on the ancient star Ziwei and left behind many beautiful stories.

He was by no means weaker than any other holy son, but he encountered a prodigy like the Three-Missing Daoist, who had the potential to become an emperor. He was completely suppressed and could only end up in obscurity. Now, he has long been forgotten by many people.

People only know that there is a brilliant and talented Holy Son, the Taoist Sanque, in the Changsheng Temple of Mingling, but they will not remember that there was once a Xu Sheng who competed with the Taoist Sanque, even though he was no weaker than the other Holy Sons.

After listening to everyone's discussion, Li Wangxian, who knew it wasn't the Three Missing Taoist who had made the move, became even more interested.

The Ninefold Thunder Domain is not far from Thunder City. With the speed of a cultivator's flight, they can arrive quickly. At this time, the crowd who were watching the show and flying at the same time also arrived outside the Thunder Domain and saw the two people who were about to fight.

In the arena, two young men stood facing each other, both being young masters at the peak of the Four Extremes, exuding terrifying auras as they confronted each other.

“Xu Sheng, you reached the Four Extremes Perfection several years ago, but you still haven’t entered the Dragon Transformation stage. Did losing to Daoist Sanque cause your Dao heart to collapse, making your cultivation hopeless and ruined?”

Dressed in a blue robe, Ye Liuyun was questioning his opponent without any politeness.
