<h4>Chapter 1438: Thunder Lord</h4>


    The Iron Demon had been fighting in that mysteriouske all this time. Theke water was already dyed red with thick blood.


    Suddenly, a ssh came from theke. The Iron Demon leaped out of it, covered in wounds.


    "Hahaha! I finally came out. Hey, where is that Shadowless Saber Sovereign?"


    Afterughing somewhat foolishly, the Iron Demon realized that the target that he was chasing had vanished long ago.


    The smile on his face disappeared, reced by a frown. He scratched his head and said, "It''s over. I lost him. Those two big brothers are going to scold me again."


    "What is this ything?"


    The Iron Demon held a seven-colored Spirit Fruit with overwhelming Spiritual Energy. The ferocious beasts at the bottom of theke had fought the Iron Demon for so long in order to protect this Spirit Fruit.


    The Iron Demon put in a lot of effort before he managed to kill all the ferocious beasts. Then, out of curiosity, he dug out the fruit.


    If it were a cultivator of any other race, they would immediately check out this fruit and then carefully keep it. They would not be like this Iron Demon, thinking about how he lost Xiao Chen first and that he let down these two big brothers.


    Only after that did the Iron Demon remember that there seemed to be something in his hand.


    "There is no Demonic Qi at all. With one look, I can tell that it is trash. To think that these ferocious beasts treated it like a treasure. How stupid of them."


    The treasures of the Demonic World all contained dense Demonic Qi. Demons naturally liked those. As for this seven-colored Spirit Fruit before the Iron Demon, its Spirit Energy was so dense, it was about to leak out. It even vaguely had some Immortal Qi.


    This was clearly a legendary Immortal Realm Spirit Fruit. The appearance of such a natural treasure would prompt the many Holy Masters to fight each other to obtain it.


    However, for this Iron Demon, not liking it was not liking it. After giving it a few sniffs, he directly tossed it away. Then, he casually trampled it into mush.


    The moment the Spirit Fruit broke, even more Spiritual Energy leaked out. When the fragrance reached his nose, the Iron Demon reflexively took a few more whiffs.


    The Iron Demon did not care about it and casually looked in a direction. After that, he carefreely started to leave.


    Without realizing it, the Iron Demon felt his mind be increasingly clearer. Many questions that muddled him started to beprehensible.


    The muddied eyes thatcked color slowly changed. Eventually, the pair of eyes filled with intelligence, no longer giving off the feeling of a stupid Iron Demon.


    One step…two steps…when the Iron Demon took ten steps, he suddenly stopped.


    "Damn it!"


    The Iron Demon pped his head hard and turned back. Hended where he trampled the Spirit Fruit, but the Spirit Fruit was already mushed up and mixed into the dirt. There was no longer any Spiritual Energy.


    "Why was I so stupid, only breathing in a breath of Immortal Qi? This is a Spirit Fruit that can raise my awareness, yet I actually went and trampled it."


    Now, it was toote for tears. The Iron Demon wished that he could have chopped his feet off.


    Right now, the Iron Demon still had not figured it out. From the moment the Iron Demons came into existence, there had never been a truly intelligent Iron Demon. He was the first in history.


    "I finally understand why those two fellows got me to foolishly chase after the Shadowless Saber Sovereign alone."


    As the Iron Demon thought about the many things of the past, his thinking gained increasing rity. It turned out that for so many years, the Iron Demons were used as spears and shields like idiots.


    "Shadowless Saber Sovereign, should I thank you?" The Iron Demonughed somewhat gloomily. "Since I, Su Erda, managed to obtain such a fortuitous encounter, I need to change the fate of the Iron Demons."


    The Iron Demon stopped dwelling on his trampling the Spirit Fruit. He sorted out his emotions and sent out his Mental Energy, carefully checking the ce. Then, he frowned.


    Why are there so many experts in this Savage Battlefield?


    After probing the surroundings, he discovered several strong auras. Some of the people he sensed even made him feel afraid.


    If the Iron Demon had just walked away carelessly, he would have died very miserably after being discovered.


    "I have to wait for a while before I can leave." After making up his mind, the Iron Demon jumped back into theke and hid, preparing to lie low until the fuss died down.


    Theke was a forbiddennd. Others were unlikely to investigate it voluntarily. Right now, this was the safest ce.


    If it were in the past, the Iron Demon would absolutely not be able to figure this out. However, now that he had gained intelligence, things were different.


    ---


    In the quiet valley, after Xiao Chen cultivated for five days, his will of thunder finally broke through to condense an Innate Thunder Crystal.


    Any other person would have broken such a bottleneck just by soaking in the Lightning Pool once.


    However, Xiao Chen''s umtions with the will of thunder were overwhelminglyrge. Furthermore, the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation was lightning-attributed in the first ce, making the breakthrough exceptionally difficult.


    However, the benefits of breaking through were clear. While in the Saber Sovereign Medallion''s Pan Huang Hall, Xiao Chen could soak at the edges of the Lightning Pool with ease already.


    However, Xiao Chen still did not dare to go to the center nor go too deep, either. However,pared toing out after just one touch, this was much better.


    After the baptism of lightning, Xiao Chen felt strangelyfortable. His understanding of lightning advanced further.


    "It''s time to go out."


    Feeling like he could not endure any longer, Xiao Chen jumped out of the Lightning Pool.


    "Not bad, you are indeed a person with great willpower. It looks like you might be able to gain a second Great Dao in the future, the Thunder Dao," Qing Yun said with a faint smile.


    "However, I will not be able to provide you with guidance for the Thunder Dao. You will have to figure it out slowly yourself in the future. Of course, it would be best if you could find a senior to guide you."


    Xiao Chen understood this principle. On the path of cultivation, there was a big difference between having someone to guide one and being alone. If he did not have the Saber Sovereign Medallion, he would not know when he couldprehend the Saber Dao, a Great Dao.


    "The Ice Pool is there as well. Do you want to try? Your will of ice is somewhat too weak."


    Xiao Chen took a look and shook his head in rejection. "There is no need for now. I have to leave the Savage Battlefield. I''ve already dyed too long here."


    "Very well. I hope that the next time we meet, you will have already cultivated one hundred spots of Saber Energy," Qing Yun said with a smile.


    "Definitely."


    Xiao Chen closed his eyes and returned to reality. As he sat on the throne, he closed his eyes and casually checked his Innate Thunder Crystal before opening them again.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"


    Suddenly five bolts of lightning descended from the sky, lighting up this valley. Xiao Chen felt something in his heart—lordship!


    That was right. It was precisely lordship. All the lightning-attributed energy within five thousand kilometers epted his lordship, revering him as their ruler.


    This felt very mysterious. In the past, no matter how strong Xiao Chen was, it was like he asked the world for lightning-attributed energy. However, after he formed the Innate Thunder Crystal, the feeling changed. He was now the lord.


    The lightning-attributed energy became his vassals. He could decide their life and death with a thought.


    "So, this is what it is. The mysteries of the Innate Thunder Crystal are all in the word lordship." With a thought, the thunderclouds vanished without a trace, and the quiet valley returned to normal.


    Xiao Chen extended his Spiritual Sense and checked the surroundings. After he withdrew his Spiritual Sense, he frowned.


    Indeed, it was as Xiao Chen expected. The Deity Dao Union would not let him off so easily after he had injured the Divine Son, Di Wuque. Now, there were already major characters of the Deity Dao Union searching for him after rushing to this Savage Battlefield.


    There were strong auras no weaker than those of the three Demons who had worked together and chased after him that day.


    There were also even stronger existences. However, their auras were better hidden; Xiao Chen''s Spiritual Sense could not urately detect them.


    "It looks like I will have to be careful in order to get out.


    After making up his mind, Xiao Chen withdrew all his aura. Then, he flew in the clouds, heading out of the Savage Battlefield.
