Xiang Nan had already advanced to the early Divine Martial Third Layer.
According to the rule that every small realm was five times higher than the previous one, if Xiang Nan wanted to reach the fourth level of the Divine Martial Arts, he had to absorb five times as much lightning as the second level, which was equivalent to twenty-five times as much lightning as the first level.
However, he needed to consume too much lightning. Almost all of the lightning on this asteroid was being absorbed by him.
However, his realm could only remain at the mid-third level of the Divine Martial Arts.
"Not enough." Xiang Nan's heart was heavy.
Judging from his experience at the Limitless Cliff, he could only reach the fourth level of the Divine Martial Stage, which was equivalent to the average strength of a certain eighth level Divine Martial Stage expert amongst the pursuers.
In other words, if he didn't use a special explosive martial skill like the Taiyi Divine Art, Xiang Nan, who was at the fourth level of the Divine Martial Arts, would at most draw with a genius expert at the eighth level of the Divine Martial Arts. However, there were more than 500 people at his level.
After all, the duration of the Dream Dao was too short, and the other party already knew the duration of the Dream Dao. He had been using tricks to consume his Dream Dao.
"Do you have to look for another asteroid?" Xiang Nan was not optimistic.
I wonder if there are any similar planets nearby, how many years will it take to find them?
From the looks of it, it was more effective to search for the World Exterminating Divine Lightning.
"Wait."
Suddenly, Xiang Nan frowned and looked towards the surface of the planet.
This was also a vaporous planet, and in the dense smoke, Xiang Nan could sense another type of lightning power.
Previously, he had been surrounded by the lightning in the dark clouds, causing him to not notice the lightning in the depths of the earth's surface, but now he could feel it.
"Let's go in and take a look."
Xiang Nan plunged his head in. He passed through the boundless layer of gas. At this moment, all he saw was thick smoke. He could no longer see anything.
He flew deeper and deeper, and gradually discovered that this wasn't a completely vaporous planet. It had a core. It was only the solid core that constantly sprayed out large amounts of smoke that surrounded the planet's true solid core.
In the solid core of the planet, there was something that caused Xiang Nan's heart to tremble.
"My God …"
When Xiang Nan saw that thing, he was dumbfounded.
This was not a vaporous planet at all. This was a bug!
A spherical, sleeping bug!
The insect was incomparably large and had a black shell on its surface. At first glance, it looked like a spherical star core, but in reality, it was alive.
There were countless holes in the insect's shell. As it breathed, thick smoke spurted out from the holes.
This discovery completely overturned Xiang Nan's understanding of the universe.
"What the hell!" Even the giant snake, which was a monster itself, was shocked when it saw the insect.
Xiang Nan was dumbfounded and said, "Then … those dark clouds were all sprayed out by him, and those lightning bolts were also emitted by him."
For a moment, Xiang Nan was so frightened that his soul almost collapsed. He thought that the giant lightning bull hadn't left yet and was still here. He just happened to encounter it.
That was a monster that destroyed the entire ancient human civilization! Even if he was at the ninth level of the Heavenly Tribulation, he would not be able to withstand a single blow in front of him.
But then he relaxed, because no matter how he looked at the insect, it didn't look like a cow.
Xiang Nan's breathing was rapid, and even his hands were trembling from fear.
"What should we do?" Xiang Nan said.
The serpent said, "How do I know that it definitely has more lightning power in its body? Otherwise … absorb it?"
Xiang Nan said, "What if this thing wakes up?"
"We'll run when we wake up," the snake said. "I don't believe it can reach the speed of light."
Xiang Nan gritted his teeth and said, "Let's do this!"
After saying that, he immediately set up an acceleration array in the air, ready to flee at any time at the speed of light, and then took a deep breath towards the insect.
The billowing smoke almost exploded in Xiang Nan's chest, but this breath caused Xiang Nan to suck out a large amount of lightning from the insect's body!
The dense lightning struck Xiang Nan. The power of the lightning was so violent that each bolt of lightning was tens of times stronger than the lightning in the dark clouds!
Xiang Nan felt that his realm had loosened again, and there were signs of improvement.
"Really!" Xiang Nan was overjoyed. It turned out that the Law Lord was actually able to absorb lightning directly from a living creature.
"Doesn't this mean that the Lord of Laws is equivalent to the Nine Transformations of Thunder?" Xiang Nan said.
The serpent said, "Bullsh*t! The Lord of Laws can only let you absorb the power of Laws, but our World Devastating Divine Lightning is a Law Fairy!"
"Your words are equivalent to using the Law Lord to eat this big bug, but can you eat it?"
"That's true" Xiang Nan shook his head, feeling regretful in his heart. It seemed that the Lord of Laws was still unable to replace the Nine Transformations of Thunder.
However, he did not stop and continued to absorb the violent lightning energy from the insect's body.
His realm has once again begun to rise. Mid-third level of Divine Martial Arts, mid-late-third level of Divine Martial Arts …
The speed of absorbing lightning depended on one's own realm. The higher one's realm was, the more lightning one absorbed each time.
Fortunately, the insect did not show any signs of waking up. Perhaps the amount of lightning Xiang Nan absorbed was not worth mentioning to it at all.
Late Divine Martial Third Layer!
The dense thunder and lightning struck Xiang Nan infinitely, and immediately transformed into Laws and entered his body. He was refined by the "Dao Transformation" meridians, and finally entered the spiritual sea.
Xiang Nan sat cross-legged, his eyes tightly closed, allowing the massive amount of lightning to continuously enter his body.
A few hours later, Xiang Nan's realm had finally broken through to the fourth level of the Divine Martial Arts!
This realm allowed him to fight on his own without using the Dao of Dream and even draw with a pursuer.
However, it was not enough!
He refused to leave.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! This type of lightning insect was even rarer than World Devastating Divine Lightning! Perhaps it was the only thing in the vast universe.
At this moment, it had already brought benefits to Xiang Nan at the third level, almost comparable to the benefits of a World Exterminating Divine Lightning.
Suck again! Keep sucking!
Suddenly, the big bug seemed to move.
At this moment, Xiang Nan's entire heart was raised to his throat and he hurriedly stopped.
After a few minutes, the insect no longer had any unnecessary movements. Xiang Nan patted his chest and sucked in more!
If he wanted to upgrade to the fifth level of the Divine Martial Arts now, he had to absorb the equivalent of 625 times the amount of lightning in the thunderclouds!
Previously, absorbing all the lightning in the thunderclouds had consumed him for nearly an hour. According to the ratio, he would probably need to absorb 625 hours, that is, 52 days.
Fortunately, his cultivation level had risen and his absorption speed had increased. The lightning in the insect's body was tens of times stronger than the lightning in the thunderclouds.
Gradually, Xiang Nan had reached the early and middle stages of the Fourth Divine Martial Layer.
The insect moved again.
Xiang Nan's heart skipped a beat and he waited for the bug to stabilize before sucking it in!
Every second was terrifying to Xiang Nan. After all, he didn't know if the insect could move at the speed of light. What if it could catch up to him?
If he really couldn't, he would use the speed of light trap to stop it! Fighting for five seconds to escape, it would have the speed of light, and it must always be five seconds behind its own speed of light.
Mid-Fourth Divine Martial Layer …
The insect actually started to move frequently, as if it was about to awaken.
