Chapter 205: Stepping Out of the Thunder Tower
"This... how is this possible..."
Unable to hide the shock in her eyes, Yan Ruoyun couldn't help but exclaim. With her keen insight, she could clearly see that the sudden scene before her indicated that someone had taken that step and gained the recognition of the Thunder Law. Currently, only Sun Zhe was inside the Thunder Tower, and that person who received the recognition of the Thunder Law was undoubtedly him.
Although gaining the recognition of the Thunder Law does not mean fully comprehending it, it represents a solid first step on the path of Law comprehension, laying a strong foundation for future endeavors in Law. Generally, those who can take this step are powerful figures in the Thunder Emperor Realm. Even she, having reached the peak of Thunder Lord, had not yet fully received the recognition of the Thunder Law.
This requires not only talent but also a high level of comprehension. While there are a few who have gained recognition from the Law before reaching the Thunder Emperor Realm, they are extremely rare and all possess exceptional understanding abilities. Yan Ruoyun never expected that Sun Zhe would also receive recognition from the Thunder Law.
Although gaining recognition from the Thunder Law does not instantly enhance Sun Zhe's strength, it will significantly change his comprehension ability on the Thunder Path. Even when Sun Zhe uses Thunderous Divine Power, it will naturally carry the aura of the Thunder Law, greatly increasing its power.
In other words, as long as Sun Zhe does not unexpectedly fall, becoming a top powerhouse on the Thunder Path is almost a certainty!
However, it was not just Yan Ruoyun who was astonished. Although not everyone present understood what this scene represented, there were still some who did, such as East Hall Master Xiang Yuanqiu and a few others.
Fixing his gaze on the massive black Thunder Tower before him, Xiang Yuanqiu's eyelids involuntarily twitched, and his eyes sparkled with deep astonishment as he murmured,
"No wonder Elder Hai did not awaken him; it turns out he saw through his extraordinary nature... The recognition of the Thunder Law; this child has indeed not disappointed me."
Originally, Xiang Yuanqiu only appreciated Sun Zhe's resilience and thought that while Sun Zhe was competent in other aspects, he still had a significant gap compared to those at their peak. It was only now that he realized Sun Zhe's qualifications and comprehension abilities were not inferior to those talents; rather, they seemed to surpass them slightly.
He himself had barely obtained recognition from the Thunder Law over a decade ago.
"Heh heh, I didn't expect to still be watching him. It seems my competition has just increased by one." Glancing lightly at the black giant tower before him, Thunder Abyss's eyes suddenly flashed with a brilliant purple radiance.
"Sun Zhe, even if you have gained recognition from the Thunder Law, what right do you have to make my junior sister sacrifice so much?" Sword Flood tightened his grip on his sword with his right hand, raising his brows as an extremely fierce light flickered in his eyes.
"Boom..."
After a moment, accompanied by a loud sound, the iron door of the Thunder Tower slowly opened again. Hearing this sound, everyone's gaze instinctively focused intently on it.
The iron door slowly opened, and a White Figure stepped out, standing tall like a mountain. His long black hair flowed like a waterfall, and the White Robe he wore exuded an air of elegance. The flickering black light in his eyes added a touch of mystery, while the lightning symbol on his forehead was particularly eye-catching. Surrounding his body were arcs of purple electricity, emanating an astonishing Thunder Might.
"Sun Zhe, why are you only coming out now?" Seeing Sun Zhe walking slowly, Han Xinrao couldn't help but call out from not far in front of him.
"Get lost!"
The roar was like the sound of thousands of Thunderous Roars, causing Han Xinrao's face to turn pale instantly. Even with her cultivation at the Thunder Lord Pinnacle, she could not withstand this overwhelming Thunder Might and involuntarily staggered backward, her delicate face turning completely white.
"Xinrao..."
"Miss Han..."
"Sun Zhe, you have gone too far!"
...
As soon as Han Xinrao was injured, several people rushed forward to her aid, one of whom was even a disciple of the Thunder Temple. These four or five individuals looked at Sun Zhe with anger on their faces. If it weren't for the astonishing aura radiating from Sun Zhe, they might have charged at him.
However, Sun Zhe didn't even glance at them, as if they were merely clowns. He turned and bowed toward the direction of the Thunder Tower, saying, "Thank you, Elder Hai, for your support."
Sun Zhe now understood that if it weren't for Elder Hai specifically allowing him to stay longer, he would never have comprehended that Thunder Dragon Pattern or gained recognition from the Thunder Law. As the saying goes, a small difference can lead to a huge divergence; if he waited to make up for that little bit later, he might not know when he would get another chance to gain recognition from the Thunder Law.
"Go ahead..."
The aged voice echoed in the Thunder Pool. Although Elder Hai's figure did not appear, everyone could imagine that this extraordinary powerhouse must be hidden within the terrifying Thunder Pool, cultivating in seclusion. With such a strong guardian in the Thunder Temple, indeed no one could intrude here.
"Sun Zhe has arrived late; I ask Vice Master and the law enforcer to punish me!"
Sun Zhe turned to look at East Hall Master Xiang Yuanqiu and the Sixth Enforcement Yan Ruoyun from the Left Hall. He noticed that Yan Ruoyun showed no reaction, but when he saw Xiang Yuanqiu, Sun Zhe couldn't help but shudder. On Xiang Yuanqiu's forehead was a Lightning Symbol that looked exactly like his own, but the aura of Xiang Yuanqiu's Lightning Symbol was countless times stronger than his.
Seeing the astonishment in Sun Zhe's eyes, Xiang Yuanqiu immediately understood what Sun Zhe was thinking. He smiled slightly and explained, "You can hide this Lightning Symbol. Unless you activate Thunder Power with all your might, most people won't be able to see it. Of course, this hiding only works for those who haven't been recognized by the Law. For those who have been recognized, it cannot be hidden. Just like now, even if I hide it, you can still see it."
Xiang Yuanqiu had a good impression of Sun Zhe and seriously explained this to him. After all, the position of the Thunder Temple's hall master was extremely high, comparable to that of major sects. Who would bother to guide a Loose Cultivator? Even though Sun Zhe was no longer an ordinary Loose Cultivator.
Upon hearing Xiang Yuanqiu's explanation, Sun Zhe suddenly understood. With a thought, the Lightning Symbol on his forehead slowly disappeared. He knew that Xiang Yuanqiu's understanding of Thunder Law was much stronger than his own, which is why the aura of his Lightning Symbol was also much more powerful.
"Thank you for your guidance, Vice Master," Sun Zhe expressed his gratitude again.
"You're welcome," Xiang Yuanqiu replied casually; it was just a small effort for him.
"Alright, since Sun Zhe has come out, everyone can disperse now. We will gather at the western square of the temple in a month. During this month, you may move around Linwu City, but you are absolutely not allowed to leave Linwu City. Otherwise, you will be removed from this group of two hundred and lose your qualification to enter the Nine Continents Mainland."
Xiang Yuanqiu addressed everyone again. Now that two hundred people had been selected, he naturally couldn't let them come to harm; only within Linwu City could he ensure everyone's safety.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately walked towards the square. Having just gained insights in the Thunder Tower, it was best to digest them as soon as possible. However, as everyone dispersed, two individuals slowly approached Sun Zhe—one was Thunder Abyss from Golden Thunder Sect, and the other was Sword Flood from Sword Pavilion Inner Cabinet.
Calmly observing the two before him, Sun Zhe's pupils involuntarily shrank slightly. Thunder Abyss had a purple Lightning Symbol flashing on his forehead, with an aura stronger than Sun Zhe's by more than double. Meanwhile, Sword Flood had a black sword spinning continuously on his forehead, emanating an astonishing aura of destruction.
These two had already been recognized by the Law!
"Isn't Junior Sister leaving yet?" Han Xinrao said coldly as he looked at Pang Yiting before him.
"I..." Pang Yiting hesitated as she gazed in Sun Zhe's direction.
Following Pang Yiting's gaze, Han Xinrao also looked at Sun Zhe. A strong hatred surged in his alluring eyes. A hint of murderous intent flashed across her beautiful face but quickly disappeared. With a cold snort, she led her admirers away into the distance.
Pang Yiting let out a gentle sigh, a hint of helplessness flashing in her charming eyes, and then she left the vast square.
"It seems that not only did I misjudge, but even my master did as well. You are quite impressive!" Thunder Abyss's demeanor remained incredibly noble, and even the tone of his speech was lofty. The Thunder God Bloodline not only granted him exceptional qualifications but also shaped his exceedingly proud character.
After finishing his words, he said nothing more, glanced at Sword Flood, and walked away into the distance.
"Destruction Law, comprehended three months ago."
Calmly looking at Sun Zhe before him, Sword Flood slowly spoke.
At that moment, Sun Zhe finally understood that the Black Sword on Sword Flood's forehead represented the Destruction Law. The Destruction Law is the most powerful law of destruction between the earth and sky, even stronger than ordinary elemental laws. Thunder Abyss had clearly comprehended Thunder Law much earlier than Sun Zhe and Sword Flood, yet still placed such importance on Sword Flood due to the terrifying nature of the Destruction Law.
"I want to know why you sought me out."
Sun Zhe showed no signs of fear in his eyes; he simply couldn't understand why Sword Flood would approach him and didn't want to unknowingly make an enemy.
Sword Flood stared deeply at Sun Zhe for a long time, as if trying to see through him completely. After a while, he finally spoke slowly, his slightly hoarse voice ringing in Sun Zhe's ears.
"Do you remember a woman named Zhuang Ruoxuan..."
