"What a powerful phenomenon! Which of our clan's elders is in seclusion?"
Someone asked.
"This kind of phenomenon is truly rare." Even the Supreme Elders like Li Zhankuang were speculating uncertainly.
"When the Divine Thunder descends, the answer will reveal itself naturally," the Li Heavenly Clan's Clan Chief said.
Everyone felt the Clan Chief's words made sense, so they all gazed at the churning lightning above the nine heavens, waiting for it to descend so they could determine the cultivator's location.
Rumble—
Finally, the lightning bolt struck down from the nine heavens.
However, after the lightning descended, the expressions of the Li Heavenly Clan members present immediately became complicated.
Because that powerful Divine Thunder phenomenon had actually landed within the Li Ancestral Formation.
They all knew clearly that even when the Li Heavenly Clan's members broke through within the Li Ancestral Formation, it would not trigger Divine Thunder, unless...
...the person breaking through was not a member of the Li Heavenly Clan.
With that, the answer became clear — the one breaking through was naturally Chu Feng.
"No wonder there was such an impressive phenomenon. So it turns out to be the Divine Punishment Mystic Art."
The Li Heavenly Clan's Clan Chief smiled meaningfully.
Originally, he had been quite eager, hoping that someone from his clan had triggered such an impressive phenomenon.
But this result left him somewhat disappointed.
Rumble—
But just then, more lightning appeared above the nine heavens.
"This lightning hasn't dissipated yet?"
"No, the lightning has recondensed — could it be that Chu Feng is breaking through continuously?"
This time, the Li Heavenly Clan members didn't need to think much — they knew the Divine Thunder had been drawn by Chu Feng. After all, not even their Clan Chief could summon lightning of such magnitude.
"Perhaps this is what they call a monster — even his breakthroughs are this extraordinary," the Li Heavenly Clan's Clan Chief said.
Before long, this bolt of lightning descended.
But immediately after, more lightning appeared above the nine heavens, and this time its might was far greater than the previous two.
"Could it be... another breakthrough?" At this point, the expressions on the Li Heavenly Clan members' faces were quite entertaining.
"Ahem, it certainly fits the title of monster," the Li Heavenly Clan's Clan Chief said with a wry smile, then sighed:
"What good deed did the Chu Heavenly Clan ever do, to receive such favor from the heavens?"
As he said these words, deep envy surfaced in both the Clan Chief's expression and his eyes.
After three consecutive bolts of lightning descended, Chu Feng's cultivation had advanced through three consecutive levels.
He had risen directly from the seventh rank of Martial Immortal to the first rank of Venerable.
Chu Feng's ability to break through to the first rank of Venerable in one breath was no coincidence.
During this period, Chu Feng had encountered numerous opportunities that gave him an entirely new understanding and comprehension of the martial path.
However, because of the backlash from the Nine Dragons Saint Robe earlier, Chu Feng's cultivation had regressed, preventing him from attempting a breakthrough.
Of course, Chu Feng's ability to break through to the Venerable realm in one go was also inseparable from the power of the Lightning Seal.
Although, based on the martial path he had comprehended earlier, Chu Feng had some confidence in attempting to break through to the Venerable realm, but it was only a slight confidence at best.
But after the power of the Lightning Seal fused with himself, Chu Feng gained a ninety percent chance of reaching the Venerable realm.
Sure enough, Chu Feng succeeded.
"Venerable-level power... it really is something."
