Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

While others might have found this heavenly thunder a bit troublesome, they were valuable treasures for Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan had previously chosen to cultivate the thunder attribute cultivation technique and practiced the Extreme Purple Heavenly Lightning Technique.

The core of this cultivation technique was the ability to absorb heavenly thunder as power and convert it into his thunderous strength.

Although this approach was risky, the effect was very good.

Not only was the power of the Extreme Purple Heavenly Lightning that he had cultivated astonishing, but it had a strong restraining effect on ordinary demons and evildoers.

As Lu Yuan looked at the remnants of the restriction heavenly thunder on the ground, he felt that it was like EXP points placed on the ground.

However, Lu Yuan didn’t take action immediately.

This was because there were a few disciples of the Shixian Sect standing guard beside this heavenly thunder.

There was even Hook Snake secretly observing.

It wouldn’t be wise for Lu Yuan to go out at this moment. He didn’t want to engage in a battle with Hook Snake in this location for the time being.

Hook Snake was the strongest among the four Heavenly Devils, with a cultivation level reaching the fifth transformation of the Core Formation Stage.

If it was considered his special technique of Heavenly Devil Possession, his strength could even rival that of a seventh or eighth transformation Core Formation Stage cultivator.

Such power could pose a significant threat to Lu Yuan.

Therefore, Lu Yuan decided to wait until Hook Snake left before venturing out to find an opportunity to absorb the power of the heavenly thunder.

As for the disciples of the Shixian Sect, Lu Yuan believed there was no need for him to intervene. He was confident that someone would help him deal with them.

As expected, shortly after Lu Yuan’s arrival, Hook Snake couldn’t contain his impatience.

Now that Fu Jiu had already entered, Hook Snake was unaware of the situation inside Fallen Dragon Valley.

However, he was well aware that there were likely numerous opportunities hidden within.

It was not a problem for him to wait for a while, but if he waited too long, he would risk losing out on potential gains.

With this in mind, Hook Snake began to make his move.

However, before entering, he needed to deal with the disciples of the Shixian Sect outside.

“Senior brothers, do you think Daozi Fu Jiu entered to check if the dragon bone still exists?”

When a cultivator beside him heard this, he immediately revealed a mocking smile.

“All of us senior brothers here are well aware of Fu Jiu’s intentions. He wants to claim that dragon bone for himself.”

“I’ve heard that Fu Jiu’s blood corpse has not only reached the level of the Green Hair Corpse but it was also refined using the corpse of a Nascent Soul Stage expert.”

“If we can find that Nascent Soul Stage dragon bone, not only can we replace the Green Hair Corpse’s bones and significantly enhance its combat prowess, but we can also tap into the willpower of the expert within and supplement the Green Hair Corpse’s consciousness.”

“In that case, it’s almost certain that his blood corpse will become a flying zombie in the future.”

“Our patriarch’s blood corpse is only at the Grade of a flying zombie.”

The term “flying zombie” actually referred to a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage.

Upon hearing that if Fu Jiu found the dragon bone, there was a high probability of nurturing a flying zombie, the disciples of the Shixian Sect around them immediately displayed expressions of envy.

For them, being able to refine a flying zombie would already be a great accomplishment.

As for the “wandering corpses” that were above flying zombies, they didn’t even dare to think about it.

That was equivalent to the Apotheosis Stage.

Just as the disciples of the Shixian Sect were about to say something, a figure slowly emerged from the shadows.

“Who are you!”

Upon seeing this unfamiliar person, the disciples of the Shixian Sect immediately became tense.

To be able to approach them silently, this person was not an ordinary person.

Hook Snake looked at the people who were looking at him with vigilance and burst into laughter.

However, this laughter immediately caused expressions of fear to appear on the faces of the disciples of the Shixian Sect.

This was because, behind Hook Snake, a gigantic black snake phantom suddenly manifested.

The black snake coiled behind Hook Snake, its gaze coldly fixed on the group.

Upon witnessing this, the disciples of the Shixian Sect understood instantly that the person had malicious intentions.

Without any hesitation, the nine disciples of the Shixian Sect immediately launched their attack.

The coffins behind them opened, and one white-haired corpse after another emerged from within.

“Kill him!”

Following the order of a Shixian Sect’s disciple, a white-haired corpse immediately rushed towards Hook Snake.

Hook Snake looked at the approaching white-haired corpse with a disdainful expression.

Just a group of small white-haired corpses, and they dared to show their teeth and claws in front of him?

When the white-haired corpse was about to reach Hook Snake, his arm suddenly transformed.

His right hand transformed into a massive black-scaled snake and lunged at the white-haired corpse, biting down on it.

Even the lifeless white-haired corpse could feel tremendous pressure from his fierce appearance.

In the astonished gazes of the Shixian Sect’s disciples, the black snake formed by Hook Snake’s right hand swallowed the whole white-haired corpse.

With a series of crunching sounds, the black snake devoured the white-haired corpse into its body.

The owner of the white-haired corpse immediately displayed a pained expression and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

It was evident that he had suffered significant injuries.

Witnessing this, the other disciples of the Shixian Sect immediately commanded their white-haired corpses to charge at Hook Snake.

They looked like wanted to attack Hook Snake with more people.

However, in the face of absolute strength, the numerical advantage was nothing but a joke.

“Ah!”

After a series of screams, these disciples of the Shixian Sect, who only possessed the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation, predictably became a feast for Hook Snake.

After dealing with those people, Hook Snake immediately pursued the direction Fu Jiu had taken.

Upon entering Fallen Dragon Valley, the scattered heavenly thunder around him immediately caused him some trouble.

However, Hook Snake used an unknown method to cover his skin with a layer of special scales.

These scales seemed to provide excellent defense against the heavenly thunder.

As a result, Hook Snake easily passed through the area filled with abundant heavenly thunder and disappeared into the distance.

Once Hook Snake was completely gone, Lu Yuan reappeared.

He looked at Hook Snake’s departing figure, lost in thought.

To be able to unleash the Heavenly Devil to such an extent, Hook Snake’s strength was even more formidable than he had imagined.

At present, Lu Yuan was no longer ignorant about the Heavenly Devils.

He knew well that their strength was not solely determined by their cultivation level.

It was also related to the degree of their Heavenly Devil’s development.

Chen Yan and the Bi Fang’s previous development had not reached the level of Hook Snake, who could materialize as a Heavenly Devil.

The black snake gave Lu Yuan an ancient aura as if a living creature from ancient times had appeared in front of him.

Even an ordinary Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator would find it difficult to gain an advantage against such a black giant snake, let alone a Core Formation Stage cultivator.

With these thoughts in mind, Hook Snake’s strength rose to another level in Lu Yuan’s estimation. He recognized Hook Snake as a formidable opponent worthy of serious attention..
