The increase in talent had changed the demon kings. A terrible spiritual power surged wildly everywhere, with them at its center.
Hong Yi and She Zini were at peak 3rd layer of Nascent Soul, having consolidated their foundation and waited years upon years to advance.
With the increase in talent, their cultivation limit was lifted. Their demonic energy flooded the world. Hong Yi and She Zini entered the 4th layer at the same time.
It was also the moment when black clouds gathered, and the wind picked up, with thunder heralding a fierce lightning storm.
The demon kings increased their talents and had to go through a lightning tribulation like Ling Bao’er.
Since there were three of them, the added lightning tribulation had multiplied danger. Lightning flashed all over the sky with the power to sunder the earth and tear anything apart.
Under the deadly lightning tribulation, destroying Soaring Immortal Mountain was nothing, not when it could level the entire Myriad Mountains area. Fortunately it only targeted the three demons.
Not like they could withstand it anyway. In fact, not even a Spirit Severing could.
The demons paled, feeling despair coming over them as their joy plunged into darkness.
“Focus now. While I’m around, even lightning tribulation is nothing.”
Ling Bao’er went through one already and got over the fear fast. “Relax, Master will handle everything.”
Hong Yi, Touba Ye and She Zini were overjoyed yet terrified.
They were happy they overcame their talent’s limits, with Soul Severing no longer being a dream, yet crushed because they just got to enjoy renewed hope for but a moment before the lightning tribulation came to ruin everything, lives included.
They were now helpless little lambs that could only trust in Chen Changan, trust in their Young Master.
*Boom~*
The lightning flared as it unleashed its power. Chen Changan couldn’t care less. He was unshaken like a mountain. He was as fierce as a storm, untamed as the river, and fearless of some meager light show.
No matter how strong, wild or destructive something was, it all turned gentle and soothing once it entered Chen Changan’s Absolute Domain. All was at his whim.
Just like a stream, the energy flowed into the demons. In the process of increasing their talents, their bodies needed the lightning tribulation to toughen them.
The demons were strong to begin with, but now they would be even more so from the power of lightning. It was like a heavenly blessing to them.
The deadly lightning tribulation that drove fear into them and promised certain death threw Myriad Mountains’ demons and creatures into a frenzy from horror, yet Chen Changan curbed its berserk nature once more.
No matter how absurd its power and deadliness, the lightning tribulation was now a gentle stream of energy at his command. It was simply unheard off, outrageous, impossible!
More so to the three demons that submitted to Chen Changan.
Once the clouds scattered, the demons had become new beings under its tempering. They were touched to the core. “We can’t thank Young Master enough for raising our talents!”
They had nothing but respect and admiration.
Chen Changan smiled. He knew this would happen. By the looks of it, the demons now submitted by their own volition and not through fear.
“How high are your talents now?” Chen Changan asked.
He just got them for followers, so he hadn’t used creation fully on them.
[I wonder if they know their current grade.]
She Zini took out a stone, clear and shining.
“Talent stone!” Ling Bao’er lit up.
The talent stone’s purpose was to assess one’s talent, a color for every grade, going through red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, black and gold.
With Chen Changan raising Ling Bao’er’s talent, she wanted to know what grade she was at now. Thanks to the talent stone they got, she would soon find out.
The demons had around the same talent before, 6th grade.
She Zini was excited as he tested himself. The talent stone shone brightly, cycling through the nine colors before settling on becoming black.
The demons gawked. The talent stone trembled in She Zini’s hand.
“It’s actually black, an 8th grade talent!” Touba Ye gulped.
Hong Yi’s charming eyes bugged out, eager to test her own talent.
Chen Changan flinched. He didn’t use creation that much on She Zini, yet his talent still rose to 8th grade.
[Using creation to its full extent will surely give them a 9th grade.] Chen Changan was astonished.
Such a talent would make one a chosen, a true rarity across the whole of Nine Province Continent. There might not even be one in a trillion.
He, however, could make them on the spot. [This is insane!]
She Zini was beyond touched, overcome with emotions. He still couldn’t believe his talent went up by two grades. The golden python ancestor had the same talent too, his role model. He never thought he’d see the day he’d have the same talent.
Next was checking Touba Ye and Hong Yi’s talents, finding them of the same 8th grade.
Chen Changan looked at the overwhelmed demons and said, “Since you’re with me, this is but a taste of what you can earn. Even 9th grade is nothing for me to bestow upon you!”
The demons set their sights on Ling Bao’er. With such a high talent, their senses sharpened, able to connect with the world. They felt Ling Bao’er’s extraordinary nature.
[Is she of 9th grade?]
Now they knew why Ling Bao’er was so incredible and made them fight over her. [She got everything from Young Master.]
The demons were burning with expectation. Chen Changan hinted they had the hopes of reaching 9th grade as well!
The demons vowed to seize this chance, to work hard for Chen Changan and taste his harvest.
