Chapter 1666 The Next Training Ground

“I can’t believe you have managed to conquer the Baneful Dragon’s Poisonous Swamp in such a short time, and it’s even your first visit to this place.” Long Yejun praised Yuan when he returned.

He said, “Are you a Baneful Dragon, too? Only a Baneful Dragon with Dragon God’s blood could possibly achieve this feat.”

Yuan shook his head with a smile and said, “Sorry, you’re wrong. I am not a Baneful Dragon.”

“I want to believe you, but alas…”

“Anyway, let’s head to the next training ground.” Yuan then said, leaving them speechless.

“Already?”

“There’s less than two years until the Dragon God Festival, so I am short on time. I am going to experience most of the training ground in the Divine Dragon Sanctuary by then.”

“Hahaha! You’re really something, little brother! Good! I’ll also stay with you until then!” Long Yejun declared, as he had a feeling that he might be witnessing history being made.

“What about the location where I can craft my treasure?” Yuan then asked.

“Don’t worry, I’ve already notified my contact about it. I’ll let you know when it’s available.”

“Thank you.” Yuan nodded.

“Where are you going next?” The Baneful Dragon suddenly inquired.

Yuan took a moment to look at the map inside his head before responding, “The nearest training ground from here is the Sky Splitting Dragon’s Tribulation, so I’ll train there next.”

“The Sky Splitting Dragon’s Tribulation, huh?” Long Yejum mumbled.

“It’s been a while since I went there, so I’m going to tag along. I also want to see how far you’ll go in a different environment.” The Baneful Dragon said.

Long Yejun shattered a teleport stone that brought them near their destination shortly after.

‘If I can become immune to lightning, I’ll no longer have to worry about Heavenly Tribulations back in the Nine Heavens…’ Yuan thought to himself as they entered the rift.

In the Nine Heavens, when an individual attains immunity to a particular element, their unique physique is given a specific name. For instance, those immune to poison are known to possess the ‘Perfect Poison Body,’ while those immune to fire are referred to as ‘One With the Flames.’

For those who achieve immunity to lightning, they possess what is known as a ‘Heavenly Physique,’ a physique that directly defies Heavenly Tribulations. This unique trait grants them the power to withstand the wrath of the heavens itself, making it one of the most coveted and sought-after physiques for cultivators.

Most cultivators perish during Heavenly Tribulations when attempting to ascend to the next major realm. Thus, one can only imagine the immense value of the Heavenly Physique that enables its bearer to completely ignore these tribulations and ascend unchallenged.

A few days later, Yuan and his group arrived at the Sky Splitting Dragon’s Tribulation. The training ground stretched across a vast, barren landscape, where lightning strikes continuously poured down like raindrops in a storm, illuminating the area with their relentless fury.

With countless lightning strikes crashing down incessantly, the training ground was filled with a deafening noise. The clamor was so overwhelming that it was impossible to stay there without sealing one’s hearing.

Long Yejun snapped his fingers, covering their group in a soundproof barrier.

“What a chaotic place and scenery, but it’s also oddly beautiful…” Yuan muttered.

Unlike the Baneful Dragon’s Poisonous Swamp, which was devoid of any presence, the Sky Splitting Dragon’s Tribulation was bustling with beings.

“Hey, look over there! Two of the seven Dragon Monarchs are together!” It didn’t take long for the beings there to notice Yuan’s group.

“Wow! The Water Dragon Monarch and the Poison Dragon Monarch? What a rare sight!”

In the Divine Dragon Sanctuary, there exists a prestigious title separate from the regular rankings, bestowed only upon the strongest dragons of their respective elements. Both the Baneful Dragon and Long Yejun held this revered title as the Poison Dragon Monarch and the Water Dragon Monarch.

The Spy Splitting Dragon was also one of the seven Dragon Monarchs as the Lightning Dragon Monarch.

“What are they doing together at this training ground? And who are those two unfamiliar faces with them?”

“I recognize the young man! He’s the fourth Dragon God’s Descendant!”

“So he’s the one…”

While the onlookers chatted, Long Yejun explained the training ground to Yuan.

“There are nine levels of difficulty in this training ground,” Long Yejun explained. “You basically temper your body at the level you can endure until you’re ready to move on to the next. Quite simple, right?”

“For reference, my limit is level 3,” Long Yejun continued.

“Only level 3?” Yuan remarked with raised eyebrows, surprised that the limit seemed relatively low for someone of Long Yejun’s stature.

“As a water dragon, I am especially weak to lightning, so it’s much harder for me to train here than others.”

“By the way, my limit is level 5.” The Baneful Dragon said.

“What about the Unrivaled Tyrant?” Yuan asked out of curiosity.

“She’s conquered all nine levels a few million years ago.” Long Yejun said. “But it took her 300 million years of straight training.”

“300 million years…?” Yuan swallowed hard at the sheer enormity of that number, unable to hide his awe and disbelief.

‘Hopefully, it won’t take me anywhere as long…’

After taking a moment to prepare himself, Yuan entered the training ground.

“Then I’ll see you later.”

“Good luck.” They said to him.

“Look! The fourth Dragon God’s Descendant has entered the training ground!” The onlookers started shifting their attention to him.

After entering the training ground, Yuan was immediately bombarded with lightning strikes that could easily kill even a Divine Grandmaster. However, it merely tickled him, who had attained the Golden Immortal Physique. Yet, he didn’t continue to the second level and sat down to cultivate in the first level.

‘Unlike the poisonous swamp, where I had some poison immunity since the beginning, I don’t have any resistance to lightning, so I must build it up from scratch,’ he thought inwardly.
