Chapter 2157: Testing
Zhou Yu’s heart stirred.He knew that the serious matter was approaching.
Zhou Yu immediately stood up.
"Fine."
"I’ll trouble Brother Black Python to lead the way."
Black Python glanced deeply at Zhou Yu and then led him toward the palace.
Before long, Zhou Yu once again arrived at Mrs. Mu’s palace.
This time, the palace was somewhat different from before.
In the originally empty hall, there were a few stone chairs added.
On the stone chairs, aside from Mrs. Mu, there were three unfamiliar people.
One of them was entirely dressed in a huge black robe, completely concealing his figure; Zhou Yu couldn’t even see his face.
Another was of short stature, draped in a blood-red robe, also not showing his face, but from his body emanated a terribly cold Yin Qi.
The last one was a beautiful woman.
Her appearance was almost identical to that of the Human Race.
It was unsurprising; she should indeed be from the Human Race.
Zhou Yu hadn’t expected that in this Black Soul Abyss, he would still encounter other human beings.
While Zhou Yu was sizing up the three people, they were also coldly watching him.
The beautiful woman spoke:
"Is this the person from the Peng Clan?"
"With such mere Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivation, how can he be of any help?"
"Mrs. Mu, are you joking with us?"
Mrs. Mu smiled faintly and said:
"Shiva, young sister uses him because he possesses powerful Thunder Technique, not because of his Cultivation."
"As long as he can aid us at a crucial moment with the power of Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, that’s enough, isn’t it?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yu’s heart moved.
Indeed, it is Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder.
Then, the short-statured blood-robed man suddenly spoke:
"Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder has disappeared from the entire Primordial Realm for millions of years."
"Now, even if this child can control Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, it’s hard to say how much power he can unleash."
"I once read in an ancient book that to harness the full power of Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder requires at least Void Refinement Realm Cultivation."
Mrs. Mu immediately said:
"Brother Ghost, I have already obtained the Secret Technique to refine Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder. It just requires giving him a little time to master seventy to eighty percent, which will be enough."
"I think, with this child’s talent, this should not be a problem."
Hearing this, Zhou Yu’s heart suddenly hesitated.
The Secret Technique for refining Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder?
Could this be the method to unleash the full power of Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder?
At this moment, Zhou Yu began to feel excited.
Originally, he thought he was trapped, but he didn’t expect to gain such benefits?
It seems this crisis is not entirely a bad thing.
At this moment, Shiva suddenly spoke:
"I happen to have studied Thunder Technique quite a bit. Previously, our plan was for me to solve the Netherworld soul energy."
"Now since there is a better choice."
"Why not let me train this child?"
"Mrs. Mu, how about you give me the Secret Technique?"
Mrs. Mu’s eyes narrowed slightly, and then she laughed:
"This matter should not require Shiva to act personally."
"In recent days, I have understood the Secret Technique enough to guide this child."
Shiva remained insistent.
"This matter concerns the life and death of all of us, and cannot be handled carelessly. I think, it’s best to hand him over to me."
At this moment, the tall black-robed man, who had not spoken, opened his mouth:
"Alright, everyone need not argue anymore. Since the child was captured by Mrs. Mu, let Mrs. Mu guide him herself."
"I think the most important thing right now is to confirm whether this child truly controls the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder."
"After all, up to now, it has only been Mrs. Mu’s one-sided claim."
Hearing this, Shiva and Ghost Master both looked at Zhou Yu suddenly.
Ghost Master spoke:
"Six Wings is right."
"Boy, release your Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder for us to see."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu did not immediately release the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder but first looked toward Mrs. Mu, showing a questioning expression.
Zhou Yu’s action was actually a tactic of sowing discord.
Seeing his behavior, others would inevitably think that he was already a person of Mrs. Mu, thus increasing their cautiousness towards her.
This would be helpful for causing future internal conflicts, creating chaos.
At the same time, he could reassure Mrs. Mu, making her believe he was genuinely loyal to her.
Indeed, upon seeing Zhou Yu looking toward Mrs. Mu, Ghost Master, Shiva, and even Six Wings all had a dark glint in their eyes.
Contrarily, Mrs. Mu chuckled, evidently very pleased with Zhou Yu’s discretion.
She spoke calmly:
"Zhou Yu, go ahead and display the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder to reassure these three fellow Daoists."
Zhou Yu respectfully said:
"Yes, madam."
Then, Zhou Yu activated the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, which instantly appeared before him.
In that instant, everyone’s gaze was fixed on the thunder sparkling in Zhou Yu’s palm.
In their eyes, there was a look of shock.
Just then, Six Wings suddenly flicked his finger.
Instantly, a cold Yin Qi shot toward Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows and then also pointed a finger.
A streak of golden thunder erupted instantly.
The cold Yin Qi emitted by Six Wings was instantly annihilated by the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder.
Upon witnessing this scene, Six Wings did not react with anger but joy.
"Good."
"It truly is Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder."
Others also showed expressions of surprise.
While outsiders weren’t aware, they knew very well among themselves.
Six Wings was strongest with his terrifying cold Yin Qi.
Even if they were to act, blocking that cold Yin Qi would not be easy.
No one expected Zhou Yu, whose cultivation was merely at Divinity Transformation Realm, to block it so effortlessly.
This Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder indeed lived up to its name.
Then, Ghost Master suddenly spoke:
"Boy, how much of this Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder can you release?"
Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment, then said:
"I can probably release thirty bolts of thunder."
Of course, Zhou Yu wouldn’t reveal his full capacity.
He only mentioned one-third.
Yet, even so, this answer made the three of them show satisfied expressions.
"Very good."
"More than I imagined."
"It seems that the time you spent obtaining Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder is not short."
"Otherwise, it would be impossible to cultivate so many."
Mrs. Mu seemed unwilling for them to ask more questions, so she directly said:
"Alright, everyone has confirmed."
"Now, shouldn’t we discuss other matters."
"Just let him leave first."
With that, Mrs. Mu waved her hand toward Zhou Yu.
"Zhou Yu, go have some rest first."
Zhou Yu immediately and respectfully said:
"Yes, madam."
Just as he was about to turn to leave, Ghost Master suddenly shouted coldly:
"Wait!"
