Free Web NovelChapter 2016: Chapter 2013: Thunder Leaf
"You really don’t know?"
Even the Mad Thunder Beast couldn’t help but ask.
Ye Xuan nodded and said, "Of course, do I look like I’m lying?"
The Mad Thunder Beast and the old man were both left speechless.
If you really don’t know, then what’s the point of competing?
The old man kept silent.
The Mad Thunder Beast also said nothing.
They were both wary.
Because once they spoke, they knew no one could resist the temptation, and everyone would start fighting for it.
If it weren’t for the changes happening at the Earth State Black Abyss, people would’ve already crowded to the Thunder Pond to fight for it.
Seeing both of them remain silent.
Ye Xuan knew what these two were up to and couldn’t help but laugh. "How about this, you tell me about it first, and then I’ll consider whether to compete for it. If you don’t tell, I’ll just fight for it."
Upon hearing this, the two hesitated.
If they didn’t speak, and the standoff continued, Ye Xuan would get involved in the struggle, which would be disadvantageous for them both.
Thinking of this, the two decided to speak.
And seeing the old man about to speak, the Mad Thunder Beast held back and waited for him to continue.
"That thing formed when Heaven and Earth first shaped, always been at the depths of the Thunder Pond, untouched by anyone."
The old man spoke slowly, his voice eerie, like some strange existence, not sounding human.
Ye Xuan listened on.
The old man hesitated, as if searching for words.
After a moment, the old man continued, "To put it bluntly, it’s just a leaf."
"A leaf..."
Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow, and instantly understood what it was.
So it’s not an Immortal Treasure.
Then it seems the Immortal Treasures of the Eternal Immortal Body and the Heavenly Time Immortal Body are not in the Thunder Pond.
Most likely, that leaf is the Thunder Leaf.
Don’t be fooled by its name; this leaf gathers the Thunder Power of the entire Thunder Pond; it’s a world-destroying treasure.
If one could get it, it would undoubtedly be a formidable weapon.
Ye Xuan had once seen this Thunder Leaf, but as the old man said, the Thunder Leaf was simply untouchable, let alone catchable.
Thus, at that time, no one had any intentions towards the Thunder Leaf.
But now, the Thunder Leaf has appeared in the depths of the Thunder Pond, not in the central region, which opens room for competition.
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast, which had always lived in the Thunder Pond, first initiated the fight.
It was contending with the Thunder Pond for the Thunder Leaf.
Later, the old man arrived.
The two fought day and night.
To this day, neither has been able to gain the upper hand.
To fight to such an extent is quite remarkable.
"Wouldn’t it be better to leave that thing here?"
Ye Xuan said softly.
The old man frowned, "Aren’t you the one who claimed not to know about it?"
He originally intended to describe the horror of the Thunder Leaf, but reconsidered, fearing that Ye Xuan would desire it after hearing, so he changed his words, only to find out that Ye Xuan actually knew about the Thunder Leaf.
The old man regretted his loose mouth.
Ye Xuan said calmly, "To be truthful, I’ve descended to the center of the Thunder Pond countless times and witnessed the might of the Thunder Leaf."
The old man scrutinized Ye Xuan, saying nothing.
But the disdain in his eyes was evident.
The old man didn’t believe Ye Xuan’s words.
He doubted Ye Xuan could achieve such a feat.
The center of the Thunder Pond?
Even this guy, not to mention the Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast, probably hasn’t been there.
There lies Dark Thunder.
Which devours all Vitality.
No matter what being steps into that area, it’s a dead end.
Yet at this moment.
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast’s gaze at Ye Xuan turned uncertain.
"Who are you?"
It took the initiative to ask.
Ye Xuan looked at the Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast, smiling, "I witnessed your birth."
"That day, the Thunder Pond was uncharacteristically gentle."
Ye Xuan reflected somewhat wistfully.
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast, with all three pairs of its eyes, its pupils abruptly contracted, "It’s you!?"
At this moment, it recalled that mysterious presence.
Wrapped entirely in Black Energy, like a humanoid monster.
This was the first sight it saw upon birth.
Ye Xuan was unsurprised.
Beasts like the Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast, born of Heaven and Earth, naturally possess extreme intelligence from birth; remembering him isn’t unexpected.
Young as it is, the Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast doesn’t entirely trust Ye Xuan.
For Ye Xuan is significantly altered.
Completely different from before.
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast opened its mouth.
Boom!
The next instant, three bolts of Wild Thunder emerged from thin air around Ye Xuan.
They attacked Ye Xuan from all angles.
Buzz————
But immediately, the Immortal Profound Power shrouding Ye Xuan suddenly manifested, instantly devouring the three bolts of Wild Thunder.
"That’s it!"
Upon seeing the Immortal Profound Power, the Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast was already certain, Ye Xuan was indeed that humanoid monster from back then!
Yet how many years have passed, and Ye Xuan hasn’t died!?
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast couldn’t help but marvel internally.
It wasn’t human, born of Thunder, surviving in the Thunder Pond, virtually Undying.
But Ye Xuan clearly wasn’t it; logically, he should’ve died long ago, yet he’s appeared here again in this form.
Could it be reincarnation?
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast grew curious.
Ye Xuan glanced sideways at the Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast, saying calmly, "Your power growth is quite slow..."
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast fell silent.
Still slow, huh.
It’s only been less than a million years since I’ve transformed!
"I want to eat that Thunder Leaf."
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast spoke honestly.
Ye Xuan laughed, "To leave the Thunder Pond once eaten?"
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast nodded, "Indeed, only then can I leave the Thunder Pond and see broader worlds."
Ye Xuan softly replied, "Perhaps the outside world isn’t as good as the Thunder Pond."
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast said, "Even so, I must first go out and see."
Ye Xuan nodded, "Alright then."
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast regarded Ye Xuan earnestly, "Can you help me?"
The old man nearby thought things were increasingly amiss, realizing these two had long been acquainted!?
Upon hearing the Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast’s request, the old man’s eyes grew sinister, he fixed his gaze on Ye Xuan and coldly said, "I advise you to stay out of this, or don’t blame anyone if you get killed."
Ye Xuan smiled faintly, "Though the Thunder Leaf isn’t of much use to me, if it could eat it and leave the Thunder Pond, reaching Emperor status would still be beneficial for me."
The old man firmly replied, "It serves a great purpose for me too!"
Ye Xuan looked puzzled, "Who are you anyway?"
The old man: "..."
The Three-headed Mad Thunder Beast chuckled happily.
Boom!
In the next moment, the old man struck first.
In an instant, his eyes seemed filled with endless magical power.
Thousands of thunderbolts twisted entirely.
The entire world seemed turned upside down.
The terrifying power surged toward Ye Xuan like a tidal wave!
The old man understood clearly, his current situation was precarious, it was better to incapacitate one first, to stand firm in the ensuing battle.
And then...
The old man found it completely useless.
