Without the interference of the simulator, Xiao Ming's soul power flowed smoothly out of his forehead.
As mentioned earlier, the terrain of the Falling Thunder Mountain Range greatly suppressed the soul power, causing it to hover only at a small distance around him. If he went further, he might be attacked by lightning, but Xiao Ming wasn't concerned since he only needed to find the flow of energy and didn't require a large-scale exploration.
The mountain peak in front of him was being struck by lightning, so he only needed to sense the energy flow and follow it.
Xiao Ming's soul power attached itself to the surface of the mountain, and he focused on sensing everything.
He first heard the deafening sound of thunder, echoing through the mountains like a demonic roar, causing great interference to his senses.
Then, he sensed the small electric current sounds of lightning energy flowing through the mountains. When the crackling sound occurred, electric arcs even struck Xiao Ming's soul power attached to the rock wall.
Meanwhile, Venerable Tian Huo wasn't idle either. Seeing Xiao Ming close his eyes to explore, he pondered for a moment and felt that just watching was inappropriate.
He immediately let his soul power surge out and started exploring as well.
Half an hour later, Venerable Tian Huo reluctantly opened his eyes. He realized that exploring the energy flow was easier said than done.
While he could discern some clues within a small distance around him, as he went further, various energies intersected and merged, leaving him at a loss.
Now, he could only wait for Xiao Ming and see if he could find the specific energy flow.
Another half-hour passed before Xiao Ming slowly opened his eyes.
"I found it!" he exclaimed.
With that, Xiao Ming pointed to the rock wall in front of him and said, "Let's dig here. Sky Demon Puppets, come out!"
At his command, two Sky Demon Puppets appeared in front of the cliff and began to dig.
The rocks at the bottom of the Falling Thunder Mountain Range were quite hard, but the Dou Venerate-level puppets didn't face much resistance. Soon, the two puppets dug out a passage two people wide and high.
They then disappeared in front of Xiao Ming and Venerable Tian Huo.
Seeing this, Xiao Ming smiled at Venerable Tian Huo and said, "Senior Yao, you had a fierce battle with the Honorable Elders earlier. You probably haven't fully recovered yet. Would you like to rest outside?"
"Sure," Venerable Tian Huo agreed. Xiao Ming's words made him realize that he had indeed consumed a lot of Dou Qi during their previous battles. Protecting Xiao Ming on the mountain peak, resisting the lightning, and later battling two Honorable Elders had taken a considerable toll on him. Now he needed to recover his Dou Qi in case he encountered any unexpected situations later.
Seeing Venerable Tian Huo sitting cross-legged to recover his Dou Qi, Xiao Ming smiled inwardly.
If Venerable Tian Huo didn't recover his Dou Qi, then Xiao Ming would have to make him dig the hole with the Sky Demon Puppets. But since Venerable Tian Huo was doing it, it saved him the trouble.
After glancing at Venerable Tian Huo, Xiao Ming stepped into the cave that the Sky Demon Puppets had created and walked for a while before silently saying in his mind, 'Simulator, select the recipe for the Resurrection Pill'
As soon as he finished speaking, a scroll with an extremely strong energy fluctuation appeared in front of him. In the same instant, Xiao Ming threw it into his Star Ring.
With the Di Tier Pill Recipe in his possession, Xiao Ming's face broke into a big smile. He took a deep breath and slowly calmed down.
He rubbed his finger on the Star Ring and continued to walk towards the cave created by the Sky Demon Puppets without intending to check the contents of the recipe.
A Di Tier Pill Recipe was not something he could refine at the moment. There was no benefit to looking at it in advance. He should wait until he had enough strength to understand it.
...
In the next few days, Xiao Ming and Venerable Tian Huo sat and directed the Sky Demon Puppets as they dug tunnels. Occasionally, Xiao Ming would correct their direction.
After seven days, they arrived at a specially created wide open space where electric arcs would occasionally flash.
Xiao Ming and Venerable Tian Huo sat cross-legged on a cushion. Suddenly, Xiao Ming opened his eyes and said, "Found it!"
Upon hearing this, Venerable Tian Huo also opened his eyes and looked at him. "So fast?"
"This isn't fast. I don't know how many miles of tunnels my Sky Demon Puppets have dug," Xiao Ming replied with a smile. It was really difficult to find this heavenly treasure, and without his sensitive soul power and the Sky Demon Puppets, it would have been almost impossible to locate.
"Hahaha, some people might not be able to find this heavenly treasure in their entire lives, but you found it in just seven days. Isn't that fast enough?" Venerable Tian Huo laughed heartily.
To this, Xiao Ming just smiled.
"Let's go."
"Okay."
...
As Xiao Ming and Venerable Tian Huo walked through the tunnel for a while, a faint light suddenly appeared in front of them.
The two looked at each other and quickened their pace. As the light grew brighter, they gradually heard a faint rumbling sound.
Boom... boom...
The closer they got, the clearer the rumbling sound became, and the surrounding light became brighter, with faint flashes of lightning.
As they reached the end of the tunnel, they were met with an endless expanse of lightning. The lightning flickered throughout the space, impacting the surroundings with terrifying force and turning the area into a world of lightning.
Boom!
A deafening boom echoed through the space as a bolt of thick lightning crashed down, creating a large pit in the ground and sending countless rocks and sand flying in every direction. Venerable Tian Huo looked at the violent lightning around them and couldn't help but be amazed. The bolts of lightning in this pool were likely even more powerful than the thunderclouds outside.
Their gaze shifted from the lightning to a faraway place where a lotus-like flower was blooming. The flower was bright and dazzling, emitting a constant red light, and bolts of lightning were rushing out of it.
"Is this the Pure Lotus Flowing Lightning?" Xiao Ming spoke first.
Venerable Tian Huo carefully identified it and nodded.
"It is indeed the Pure Lotus Flowing Lightning. This kind of Mysterious Lightning is as powerful as the Heavenly Flames, with miraculous effects. If I remember correctly, this Mysterious Lightning has the effect of tempering bones and strengthening the body, which is very beneficial for anyone. But it's also extremely dangerous. One misstep can shatter your bones. It's said that using this Mysterious Lightning to temper the body before reaching the Dou Ancestor Realm will result in certain death."
"This Pure Lotus Flowing Lightning is quite formidable." Xiao Ming said.
"There are many heavenly treasures in the world with different attributes, such as the Spirit Wood, Heavenly Water, Heavenly Flame, and Mysterious Lightning. Among them, treasures with the lightning attribute are especially difficult to condense, and they're also extremely powerful in terms of attack. So, how could it not be formidable?" Venerable Tian Huo sighed.
Xiao Ming nodded in understanding.
"In this lightning pool, the lightning energy is abundant, and you can let your puppets soak in it. As for that Mysterious Lightning, just in case, let me get it for you," Venerable Tian Huo offered.
The lightning energy was concentrated in the lightning pool, and no one knew what would happen after entering it. Therefore, Venerable Tian Huo felt it would be better for him to fetch the Mysterious Lightning.
