Monarch of Heaven's Wrath 167 Tracks located.

The Thunder Saint's Final Breath was very beneficial to people from all three races, those from the Fiendgod or the White Orchid races who cultivated either lightning, wind, or water could drastically increase their cultivation speed here, and those from the Undead race could use the incessant lightning here to temper their souls, provided they were able to resist it.

Not only was this place beneficial to all three races, but it was also surprisingly safe, the only Demonic beasts living in this forest made their homes at the base of the massive tree that stood at the center. And as far as had been recorded in the history books, only four people had ever reached the base of the giant tree and managed to return, but none of them spoke of what they found there. While the small Lan Yun was busy looking at the forest, which shimmered with a faint light thanks to the metallic and crystalline trees, Yan Ling swept the surrounding people with a quick gaze.

"Quite a few others here, do we need to establish ourselves before we start cultivating?"

Getting attacked while cultivating could be dangerous, especially if you were in the process of a breakthrough, it could easily turn the surging Qi within your body violent and rampant. As such, Yan Ling thought that it might be appropriate for the two of them to show off some of their strength to make sure that none dared disturb them later. Liang Chen also gave the surrounding people a quick glance, but his gaze was calm as he returned it to the forest, gesturing towards the outskirts of the forest with his chin.

"The vast majority of them don't dare head into the deeper parts of the forest, they'll stay in the outskirts where the lightning is milder. We'll be heading a bit deeper than that so we'll have plenty of space to ourselves, no need to draw too much attention to ourselves."

Yan Ling gave a slight nod of her head and dropped the subject, accepting Liang Chen's reasoning as solid. The two only received a few passing glances as they walked past the others gathered in front of the forest and stepped into it, the strangely crystalline yet flexible grass bending somewhat under their feet.

The lightning, wind, and water Qi within the air inside the forest was so thick and potent that it almost felt like they walked into a wall of water as they stepped into the forest. The rain and wind felt like small needles that constantly hailed down on them, the constant rumbling of thunder almost deafening as countless bolts of golden lightning struck down all around them.

Liang Chen took a deep breath, his body automatically starting to draw in the lightning and wind Qi in the surrounding area, the Dragon Lotuses in his chest greedily absorbing it as it entered his body. Not all the absorbed energy was drawn into his Dragon Lotuses, part of it was distributed to his bones and bone marrow, the parts of his body that had already been altered in his body cultivation.

Yan Ling frowned slightly and moved the small Lan Yun over to her left arm, giving a light wave of her right hand that caused the rain and wind to move away just as they were about to hit Lan Yun. She and Liang Chen were fine, but Lan Yun was a bit too young to freely absorb the dense energy that not only filled the air but also each drop of rain and every gust of wind.

Liang Chen raised his head, his one golden and one cyan eyes reflecting the dazzling lightning that constantly streaked the sky. His right arm started to reach out, but seemingly realizing their current position he quickly pulled it back and gave a few shakes of his head. He turned his head slightly to make sure that Yan Ling and Lan Yun were doing fine and then checked up on Yumao, who was having no trouble with the dense Qi. After they made sure that each of them was doing fine, they continued to head deeper into the forest.

The storm only got stronger as they headed deeper into the forest, but that also meant that the density of Qi got even greater, making cultivating even easier. Most of Liang Chen's focus was on the lightning around them, he was rather surprised to realize that despite the fact that the lightning had gotten quite a bit stronger since they entered the forest, it still remained in its golden form, they would have to walk for a few more kilometers for it to turn azure. The golden lightning around them right now was about as strong as the first azure lightning he had ever encountered so he was quite interested in seeing how strong the azure lightning would be.

By the time they stood at the edge of the area where the azure lightning started, there were no more people from the other races around them, the never-ending storm was their only spectator. Now that they were alone, Liang Chen once again raised his head to the sky, his eyes aglow with the reflection of countless bolts of lightning.

His right arm stretched out and started to reach for the sky, faint emerald arcs starting to crackle around his entire body. Yan Ling could guess at what he was trying so she picked up Yumao and placed him on her own head, taking a few steps back to give Liang Chen some space. The arcs of emerald lightning around Liang Chen grew more and more numerous, connecting with the other bolts of lightning that struck down all around them, swiftly rising higher as they stretched towards the dark sky.

The lightning around them started to change as Liang Chen connected with them, their brilliant golden color was replaced by a dark emerald while their trajectory shifted so that they were all coming for Liang Chen. After just half a minute, all the golden lightning in a seven-kilometer area had turned a deep emerald, even the bolts coming down from the clouds in that area had turned emerald, all of them heading for Liang Chen.

Just like he had done back in the Mystic's Hidden Realm, he had connected with the lightning in the sky and called it down. Only, now he didn't need to use a Two-Petaled Elemental Lotus to call down the lightning, he could do it with just his own power. What's more, any energy he lost from calling upon the lightning could be restored by drawing some of the lightning into himself, it even counted as a form of cultivation.

Yan Ling stood a few steps away, a soft smile on her face as she looked at Liang Chen, even Lan Yun was looking at Liang Chen with eyes gleaming with excitement and wonder. He was surrounded by a raging wind, drops of water moving so fast they were practically razor-sharp, and countless arcs of terrifying emerald lightning. By all accounts, it should be a rather terrifying sight, but she could only see it as charming and breathtaking, it was this state which was the one best suited for Liang Chen, this was how he should be.

Liang Chen pulled his arm back after another half minute, the lightning around him calming down as the area returned to normal. He felt like he could call upon the lightning when he first stepped into this forest so he wanted to see if it would actually work, now that he knew that it was indeed possible, he could use it when they decided to settle down to cultivate here, it would allow them to cultivate even more efficiently. Liang Chen lowered his gaze, locking eyes with Yan Ling and pointing a bit deeper into the forest.

"I found a place in that direction that should be suitable for our cultivation, it's not terribly far away."

With how much lightning there was in the area, Liang Chen's tracking technique could reach a range far larger than ever before, if he focused fully on his senses he guessed that he might be able to observe everything in a 50-kilometer area. Yan Ling nodded her head and then suddenly seemed to think of something.

"Here, hold them for a bit."

She handed Lan Yun and Yumao to Liang Chen, who accepted both of them, carrying Lan Yun while Yumao slithered up his arm and onto his head again. Yan Ling walked over to one of the crystalline trees that littered the area, golden arcs of lightning skittering around within the tree. She chose one of the smaller trees she could find, one that was only about 20-meters tall, and gave the trunk a heavy punch. The trunk cracked and shattered under the force of her punch, collapsing inward as her law of crushing rendered its sturdy frame useless. She lifted the upper part of the tree before it could fall to the side, quickly storing it into her interspatial ring before turning back to Liang Chen.

"Alright, that's all I needed, let's go."

Liang Chen nodded his head and didn't bother asking about the tree, she would certainly tell him what it was for when she was going to use it. He handed Lan Yun back to Yan Ling and the two entered the area dominated by azure lightning, the horrific rumbling of thunder growing even louder. Liang Chen stretched out his arm and attracted a bit of lightning, a thick arcing azure bolt crashing into his arm.

His body and Dragon Lotus started to quickly devour the energy within the main body of the lightning, the entire bolt of lightning becoming unstable and falling apart now that the density and speed of the energy within the main body of the lightning became different from the countless smaller arcs that stretched out from it.

Liang Chen's eyes lit up when he was struck by the bolt of lightning, partly because he received a sliver of inspiration by how it fell apart and partly because of how strong it was. This azure bolt of lightning was about as strong as his own emerald lightning, which was a fusion of golden and azure lightning. If it was this strong just in the outskirts, then how strong would it be once he ventured even deeper? The corners of his lips pulled up slightly, it truly was the right decision to come here, it was not only perfect for his cultivation and for fusing his emerald and crimson lightning, but he might also find a way to make his own lightning as strong as the lightning here.

As Liang Chen and Yan Ling were heading deeper into the Thunder Saint's Final Breath, Qian Liao was walking through the streets of Ten Thousand Hearts city. Qian Liao was a surprisingly small and slim Fiendgod, standing at only two and a half meters tall, his physique more closely resembling a muscular man than the more commonly bulky Fiendgods. His black exoskeleton-like skin was covered in silver tattoos that formed several serpents coiling around each other and fusing into each other, becoming more and more draconic as they moved up his body, ending in a singular roaring dragon head carved into the top of his bald head. His eyes were a bit strange, his pupils were black but his sclera was rather light silver, similar to his tattoos.

Qian Liao was quite a famous figure thanks to his achievements in the God Piercing Fang tower so he was recognized by countless people as he walked through the city, a large crowd surrounding him wherever he went. But Qian Liao ignored the crowd and headed for a small restaurant located close to the western exit of the city with resolute steps, quietly opening the sliding doors and making sure to close them behind him. The restaurant was very simple, only containing a single counter where one could sit and watch the lone chef, a man from the Undead race, do his job. Qian Liao locked the door by sliding a few metal rods into place, sitting down at the counter and placing his order.

"I'll have the final feast of the Godslost Emperor."

The chef's hand stopped and he glanced at Qian Liao. He gave a short nod of his head and then walked over to what appeared to be a large closet, opening it and moving some of the wares stocked inside it around. After he moved the sixth box, a light click came from the closet as the bottom slid away, revealing a set of stairs that led down into the earth. The chef walked down the stairs, a brown-haired woman from the White Orchid race coming up shortly after the chef left. The woman looked at Qian Liao, a light smile on her lips.

"I didn't expect Justice to come to us, what could we possibly help you with?"

The woman walked over to the counter and sat down on a chair that rose up from the ground, placing her elbows on the counter and leaning her head on her hands. Qian Liao didn't bother trying to waste any time, getting directly to the heart of the matter.

"Please spare me the games, you know what I want. Tell me about anyone who has left the city since those two left the tower. If you have any leads on which ones they are and where they have gone then I'll also take that."

Qian Liao had quite a few followers who would be willing to tell him anything, but he knew for a fact that his information network paled in comparison to the information network of the organization that he was talking to now, it was like comparing a firefly to the moon. But that was to be expected, the people he was talking to now could be considered to be the dark side of the planet, they practically had a hand in every shady deal that took place here. The woman moved her right arm slightly, drawing circles on the counter with her index finger while smiling meaningfully at Qian Liao.

"It's not impossible for us to give you that, but will you be able to afford that?"

The woman didn't tell Qian Liao that Sun Cailin was paying special attention to Liang Chen and Yan Ling, she simply implied that the information would cost quite a bit more than normal. Qian Liao was not deterred, removing his fang-shaped earring and placing it on the counter, sucking on his teeth for a short moment before talking.

"This'll cover the fee for telling me who has left, as for the second fee... the Prince of Envy has been replaced by a previously unknown person, someone known as Lei Chao Ning, she's the new Princess of Envy. The Lord of Faith has also died, but it didn't say anything about who killed her."

This was how things were done here, some things could be paid for with money while others had to be paid for with information that the organization didn't already know. The woman's eyes lit up slightly when she heard the information, picking up the earring and storing it away without even checking its contents.

"That's certainly enough, it seems you are quite set on getting those two."

Qian Liao simply let out a huff without saying anything, the woman continuing to smile lightly. She swiped one of the six rings she was wearing, two metal discs appearing on the counter. She inserted some Qi into the discs, several images that seemed to have been taken in secret appearing in the air above each disc.

"Here's a list of everyone who left the city ever since they left the tower, the people on the second list are those whose strength aligns with the strength of those two. As for any leads on which one they might be and where they've gone, one of our birds brought us an interesting piece of information not long ago. These two people entered the Thunder Saint's Final Breath not long ago, they should currently be heading deeper into it."

The woman pointed at the image that featured the disguised Liang Chen and Yan Ling while she spoke, Qian Liao's own eyes locked on the image. His brows furrowed slightly when he heard their current location, letting out a light breath through his nose.

"Thunder Saint's Final Breath, huh? Yeah, it really does suit them according to the reports. Better to be safe than to be sorry."

His own followers had already told him about the various laws that the two of them cultivated, poison, water, wind, lightning, slicing, and crushing. There were indeed very few places on this planet that suited the two of them as well as the Thunder Saint's Final Breath. Qian Liao wasted no more time after getting his answer, standing up from his seat and heading for the door, the voice of the woman stopping him as he was undoing the various locks.

"Justice, tell me, have you become a Prince already?"

Qian Liao's hands only stopped for a short moment before he quickly continued to open the various locks. He turned his head back before opening the door, giving a simple response.

"I've already paid my price, I owe you nothing more."
