Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Shui Wuya stepped into the Thunder Pool.
Surrounded by swirling lightning and intersecting bolts, the scene was nothing short of terrifying.
Yet, Shui Wuya moved through it with an air of ease and grace.
He walked lightly, as if floating on air.
Protected by his powerful soul energy, the lightning struck him but couldn't penetrate his protective barrier.
Thus, Shui Wuya continued advancing, seemingly determined to explore the depths of the Thunder Pool.
"Clan Leader Shui is truly exceptional!"
The onlookers were stunned by the sight.
The Great Offering, however, was deeply worried.
He spoke quietly to Yu Tianhao, "Clan Leader, you're making a mistake. Our ancestors warned us that the Thunder Pool hides immense opportunities, and it is our Lei Clan's lifeline for the future. If Clan Leader Shui gains that great opportunity, what will become of our Lei Clan?"
Yu Tianhao took a deep breath.
He understood the Great Offering's concerns but had his own views.
"Great Offering, I understand your worries, but I have made up my mind. If Clan Leader Shui is destined to obtain that opportunity, then it is his fate. Our Lei Clan should wholeheartedly support the Shui Clan and not risk losing the bigger picture over a small concern."
The Great Offering frowned deeply, "Clan Leader, that opportunity is crucial to our Lei Clan's future. Even if you are the clan leader, you cannot make such decisions unilaterally. This is a serious matter; we must call a meeting with the Lei Clan's high-ranking officials to discuss it."
Yu Tianhao pondered for a moment and then nodded, "Alright, we'll proceed as you suggest."
He knew that this issue could not be resolved instantly and required the support of the entire Lei Clan's leadership.
The Great Offering immediately sent out orders to summon the clan's senior members for a meeting.
Inside the Thunder Pool.
Shui Wuya braved the lightning as he ventured deeper into the pool.
Before long, he surpassed the six thousand-mile limit.
Lightning exploded around him, as if trying to engulf him.
But he remained unperturbed, as if the lightning was merely a mild irritation.
After an indeterminate amount of time.
Suddenly, with a thunderous roar, a tremendously powerful bolt of lightning struck Shui Wuya.
The immense force rendered him immobile.
"What is this… divine power?"
Shui Wuya was taken aback. He hadn't expected such a formidable force within the Thunder Pool.
The lightning seemed poised to breach his protective barrier, but Shui Wuya did not panic.
He promptly opened his necromantic realm and drew the divine lightning into his inner world.
"Come in, divine power of the Thunder God."
In an instant, the necromantic realm crackled with lightning.
Boundless thunder surged through the sky of the necromantic realm, stirring up massive waves!
Shui Wuya harnessed the power of his necromantic realm to contain the divine lightning.
He intended to assimilate the lightning and use it to enhance his tribulation power!
Meanwhile.
In the divine realm.
Yu Tianxin, who was deep in meditation, suddenly felt the disturbance of divine lightning and opened her eyes in surprise.
"The opportunity in the Thunder Pool has been triggered?"
Noticing the anomaly.
Yu Tianxin initially felt a surge of joy.
But then, something seemed off. Why did the divine lightning she had left in the lower realm seem to have been forcibly taken away? Could the lower realm's people be so powerful now?
What could be happening?
"Excellent!"
Shui Wuya gradually controlled the divine lightning.
He sat cross-legged, continuing to draw the lightning into his body, comprehending the true essence of the divine thunder.
Within the Thunder Pool, divine lightning danced around Shui Wuya's body with wild abandon, but he maintained an air of calm, like an unmoving rock in the depths of the ocean.
On the shore, Yu Tianhao, Yu Qingluan, and the Lei Clan members were all stunned.
"Clan Leader Shui's progress has far surpassed six thousand miles!"
"Are the records of our Lei Clan's strongest warriors being broken like this?"
Yu Tianhao sighed inwardly, acknowledging that Shui Wuya was indeed an enigma.
Yu Qingluan's eyes were filled with deep admiration, her respect for Shui Wuya's cultivation growing even more.
The Great Offering, however, was increasingly anxious.
He feared that Shui Wuya might discover the Lei Clan's hidden opportunity and seize it for himself.
Meanwhile.
In Shui Wuya's necromantic realm.
Lightning crackled and roared as divine thunderpower cascaded down.
The spirits within were trembling with fear.
They dreaded the lightning more than anything.
The lightning from above was like their ultimate nemesis!
Shui Wuya's mental projection also entered the necromantic realm.
Seated cross-legged on the burial soil, he continuously absorbed the thunder from within the realm.
In the necromantic realm, he received the enhancement of the world's power.
With dual-world cultivation and double the time flow, his training speed was unparalleled!
He could not stop!
As Shui Wuya greedily absorbed the divine lightning.
The necromantic realm became even more terrifying.
The lightning surged like the apocalypse.
Countless spirits fell to their knees, begging for mercy, fearing that this dreadfully powerful creator would reduce them to ashes!
Yet, Shui Wuya not only refused to stop but even intensified his absorption of the lightning, completely immersing himself in understanding its essence.
His figure flickered in and out of sight amid the lightning, resembling a thunder god descended to the mortal realm, impervious and formidable.
Three days later.
At the Lei Clan's grand hall.
All the high-ranking members of the Lei Clan had arrived, and Yu Tianhao convened a meeting to discuss the situation with the Thunder Pool.
"Since Clan Leader Shui entered the Thunder Pool, the water level has dropped by three hundred meters!"
"The power of the lightning is visibly diminishing. According to my calculations, at this rate, the Thunder Pool will be completely drained in less than ten days!"
An elder reported the latest developments.
Everyone was stunned by the news.
"How is this possible!?"
"How is Clan Leader Shui achieving this?"
"How can he continuously absorb the lightning power?"
"Could it be that he has already obtained that legendary opportunity!?"
The room was abuzz with speculation.
The Great Offering's face grew serious as he pondered before speaking, "We cannot stand idly by. The opportunity in the Thunder Pool is crucial to us; we must take action."
One of the offerings, gathering his courage, suggested, "Should we wake up Clan Leader Shui and stop him from cultivating?"
Yu Tianhao stood up abruptly, slamming his hand on the table, "Interrupting Clan Leader Shui's cultivation—how could you even think of that!"
"If you want to die, don't drag us down with you!"
"But apart from this, there seems to be no other way."
Someone spoke with resignation.
"Indeed, without the aid of the Thunder Pool, after a thousand years, our Lei Clan will certainly fall behind the Feng Clan and the Huo Clan. At that point, we might even drop out of the top four ultimate clans, suffering a tremendous decline."
At that moment, how would we face our ancestors?"
Another high-ranking member's voice was heavy with concern.
Hearing this, everyone fell into a deep silence.
