A furious beast's roar suddenly echoed through the forest filled with towering trees. A young figure shot out from the undergrowth.

In front of the giant beast that was desperately fleeing, the youth unfolded his Purple Heaven Wings, which were overlaid with another pair of massive wings. He accelerated suddenly, moving as swiftly as lightning.

Under this high-speed movement, one moment the youth's figure was far behind the beast, but in the next second, he overtook it directly. He planted himself firmly in front of the beast and, with a punch imbued with dark energy and lightning, struck forward fiercely. The beast swung its claw in response.

However, upon contact, the beast's claw was like an egg hitting a rock. Instantly, it was shattered by the youth's punch. The powerful fist created a massive hole in the beast's chest, from which the youth pulled out its heart with one hand and crushed it instantly.

The once vigorous beast, having suffered this fatal blow, naturally collapsed to the ground, dead.

"A demon beast that rivals the mid-transformation stage of the Formation Realm is this weak?" the youth muttered with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Moments later, two figures, one human and one tiger, caught up. After hearing the youth's words, they couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths.

"Brother Lin Yan, it's not that this mid-transformation Formation Realm demon beast is too weak; it's just that your strength is now a bit abnormal," Lin Dong said with a hint of regret.

Since they left Yan City, more than half a month had passed. During this time, they had been continuously traveling towards the Great Desolate County, passing through many cities along the way. However, the Great Desolate County and Celestial City were very far apart.

Even though they had been traveling constantly, there was still quite a distance to their target, the Great Desolate County. Today, they passed through a city and heard about a demon beast with power comparable to a Complete Formation expert wreaking havoc nearby.

Lin Yan was quite interested, so he brought Lin Dong along. Who could have imagined that in a real confrontation, this demon beast, which was as powerful as a Complete Formation expert, would be defeated by Lin Yan without being able to put up much of a fight?

After a simple exchange of blows, the injured beast was howling in pain, leading to the earlier scene where it was fleeing everywhere. But Lin Yan's speed was equally fast. Against the beast's desperate flight, Lin Yan's acceleration caught up to it, and with a single move, he killed it directly.

At this moment, Lin Dong felt a bit speechless after hearing Lin Yan's previous words. At the same time, he couldn't help but reflect on the earlier battle between Lin Yan and the demon beast. After a while of contemplation, Lin Dong sighed.

"Brother Lin Yan, you are becoming stronger and stronger. Before, when we were in Yan City, although you were strong, at least you weren't this abnormal. However, in the past half month, although your realm hasn't advanced temporarily, the number of techniques you handle has increased significantly."

Lin Dong sighed again and said to Lin Yan, "Moreover, isn't your Golden Sun Body about to advance to the Bronze Lightning Body?"

Lin Yan nodded at this. "Yes, almost. My meridians are nearly fully opened, but to advance to the Bronze Lightning Body, I need to be struck by lightning."

Over the past half month, his strength had indeed improved greatly. The primary reasons behind this improvement were:

Firstly, because he had barely entered the Formation Realm before, his understanding of this realm was not very deep. So during this half month of continuous comprehension, his understanding of this realm deepened, naturally allowing him to unleash more of his power.

Secondly, he increased the frequency of his registrations. After all, there are many places to register outside. Once they left Yan City, Lin Yan completed registrations in many areas. Although the rewards obtained from these registrations varied in quality, occasionally he could find some good things. Lin Yan had great talent and learned quickly. So without realizing it, he naturally accumulated many skills.

Thirdly, his practice of the Golden Sun Body progressed rapidly. Now it was only a step away from reaching the Bronze Lightning Body. Thus, his physical strength had also become more powerful.

However, when mentioning the Golden Sun Body, Lin Yan still felt a bit regretful and complained, "It's a pity that the weather has been so good recently, with no rain or thunder. I want to be struck by lightning, but I can't do it."

Hearing this, Lin Dong felt a slight twitch at the corner of his lips. He didn't know how Lin Yan was training. Both were training in the Golden Sun Body. But in his case, after opening half of his meridians, it became a bit difficult to advance. But in Lin Yan's case, he had almost mastered the Golden Sun Body. This difference also made Lin Dong feel quite speechless, giving him a deeper understanding of their direct difference in talent.

"I'm the one who needs thunder the most, right? I'm not as abnormal as you, Brother Lin Yan. If some thunder doesn't come soon, my Golden Sun Body training will soon hit a bottleneck."

Lin Yan shrugged helplessly upon hearing this. "We can only leave it to fate."

Then, he took out a blade and used it to carve up the previous demon beast, storing all the valuable parts in his Storage Ring before standing up again. But he didn't leave; instead, he opened his spiritual perception and began to sense his surroundings.

"Brother Lin Yan, what are you planning to do?" Lin Dong was naturally a bit confused and asked curiously.

Lin Yan replied with a smile, "You don't understand this. If there are celestial or terrestrial treasures, there will definitely be powerful demon beasts guarding them in the surroundings. So, this statement can also be understood in reverse. Extremely powerful demon beasts, living nearby, probably also have such precious celestial or terrestrial treasures. Otherwise, they couldn't surpass other demon beasts in the surroundings and reach this kind of realm."

Hearing this, Lin Dong thought it made sense. He carefully remembered this piece of knowledge.

As for Lin Yan, he quickly found the spiritual object of this place through his spiritual perception. They were several green herbs, with leaves emitting a slight spiritual light. Lin Yan led Lin Dong forward, and upon seeing the ground full of thunder elements and the spiritual light flickering, emitting a crackling sound, Lin Dong was slightly surprised and couldn't help but say, "Is there really something like this?"

"Brother Lin Yan, what is this?"

Lin Yan brightened at this and said to Lin Dong, "Weren't you complaining about the difficulty of advancing in the Golden Sun Body? Well, this is the Thunder Spirit Herb. When combined with green vine leaves and blood red flowers, it can be refined into the fourth rank pill, the Thunder Spirit Pill. This pill contains an extremely strong thunder element. It's perfect for training in the Golden Sun Body."
