As expected, at the mention of delicious food, Lei Yuanyuan immediately lost her sleepiness. She looked excitedly at the sky, her small wings flapping as she flew upwards. Taking a deep breath of the surrounding air, her eyes lit up.
"It smells like thunder! I can smell it! Quick, quick, my tummy is rumbling!"
Seeing that the little one was no longer sleepy, the beasts all breathed a sigh of relief. Even A Bao and Er Ming, known for their thick hides, didn't dare to face the Pill Lightning head-on.
Lei Yuanyuan didn't have to wait long. After six days, a dazzling golden light suddenly erupted from the center of Ning Bei's palm, followed by a rich pill fragrance that spread throughout the surroundings.
Logically, such a pill fragrance should have attracted all the Soul Beasts in the Far North Land to this place. However, these Soul Beasts were now fleeing as if they had seen a Ghost, heading towards places further away. At this moment, the Soul Beasts wished they could all turn into A Zhu, thinking that having eight legs would surely make them run very fast.
The culprit behind this situation was the sky above their heads, which was as black as ink. Lightning as thick as coiled dragons was constantly leaping between the clouds, resembling a scene before the end of the world.
"It's... it's coming."
Da Ming looked at the heavenly lightning in the sky, each bolt as large as his main body, with a face full of cold sweat. An indescribable fear surged in his heart. The other fierce beasts were no less affected. Wang Wang, the weakest among them, was already whimpering like a puppy. She didn't want to use heavenly lightning to prove her strength at all.
But even though the beasts were extremely unwilling, the lightning in the sky began its action. They wanted to destroy this heaven-defying object that did not belong to this world.
The nine-colored lightning transformed into a giant dragon, roaring as it swooped down towards the ground. Ear-piercing explosions constantly emanated from its body, causing Ning Bei's expression to become extremely solemn.
The next moment, Lei Yuanyuan's small body instantly enlarged. Her eyes filled with hunger, she charged towards the lightning dragon with all her might. She opened her mouth on the path the dragon was bound to take. After her body enlarged, Lei Yuanyuan's mouth was just as big as the lightning dragon. The lightning that covered the sky and the sun directly poured into her belly.
This made the fierce beasts' scalps tingle, and they also broke out in a cold sweat for the little one. Chang'e, who was the most worried, had already transformed into her main body, the Emerald Swan, and stopped in mid-air, emitting an emerald green light, ready to provide healing for Lei Yuanyuan at any time.
A Yin, who was beside her, also quietly unfolded her Blue Silver Domain at the same time. After living in the Pill Tower for a few years, she had also become familiar with a group of people. Moreover, Lei Yuanyuan was her Benefactor. Without the little one's existence, she would have turned to ash years ago.
Fortunately, the scene that the fierce beasts feared in their hearts, where Lei Yuanyuan would be exploded by the lightning, did not appear. After a lightning dragon entered her belly, the little one immediately let out a burp, her eyes full of lingering desire.
"Good job, Yuanyuan. There's more in the sky. You can eat until you're full."
"Got it, Sister Chang'e."
Lei Yuanyuan waved at Chang'e, then immediately turned and rushed towards the lightning dragon that was roaring down from the sky again.
The sky seemed tireless, constantly sending down lightning dragons, and Lei Yuanyuan accepted them all. It wasn't until the seventy-first lightning dragon entered her belly that Lei Yuanyuan turned back to look at Ning Bei with a wronged expression.
"Daddy, I can't eat anymore."
"Then come back. Your Uncle Da Ming and the others are also hungry."
"Okay, then I won't compete with the uncles."
With Ning Bei's permission, Lei Yuanyuan shrunk her body, patted her belly, and immediately burrowed into his arms. Ning Bei also turned his gaze towards Da Ming and the others, his meaning self-evident: Go ahead.
"..."
Da Ming's heart was filled with harmonious words at this moment. He just wanted to say to Ning Bei, You're the one who's hungry, your whole family is hungry.
If I, this old bull, were to swallow a lightning dragon like the little one, wouldn't I perform an explosion on the spot for you?
But he could only swallow the tears he had cried over the chest he had patted. Da Ming showed a smile that was uglier than crying to the fierce beasts beside him and said:
"I'll go first. One bolt each. If there are more, it will start with me again."
"Agreed, go ahead."
The fierce beasts nodded repeatedly. This was the best method now.
Turning around, Da Ming had a sense of tragic grandeur, like the wind whistling through the Yi River. Then, he directly transformed into his main body, the Azure Bull Python, and charged towards the seventy-first lightning dragon.
"Don't be too arrogant, I'm a dragon too! Azure Nirvana Divine Lightning!"
The Azure Bull Python's eyes were filled with ferocity and defiance as it spat a bolt of destructive lightning towards the thunder dragon in mid-air.
A series of explosions echoed from the sky. Da Ming, who hadn't even had time to celebrate, was instantly electrocuted, his body trembling. Through the bright light, it seemed his entire skeleton was visible.
Da Ming: My apologies!
Seconds later, the severely injured Da Ming transformed back into his true form and landed on the ground. He pulled out a Life Restoration Pill and popped it into his mouth, then cast a sympathetic look at Er Ming.
"Your turn."
Er Ming swallowed hard, his face solemn as he watched the seventy-second thunder dragon descend from the sky. But going back on his word wasn't his style. Transforming into the Titan Giant Ape, he angrily beat his chest twice before leaping towards the thunder dragon like a launched cannonball.
"Titan Sky Shatter!"
Another series of explosions rang out. Seconds later, Er Ming, covered in smoke, landed and shakily stuffed a Life Restoration Pill into his mouth. He then silently returned to Da Ming's side.
"Big Brother, Yuanyuan is the strongest."
"You're right!"
Seeing that Da Ming and Er Ming had completed their tasks, the other fierce beasts, although muttering inwardly, showed no signs of fear. They transformed into their true forms and began to meet the arrival of the thunder dragons.
When Chang'e, in her form as a short-haired loli, landed, her emerald green hair was now completely charred, still emitting plumes of black smoke. After taking a Life Restoration Pill, Chang'e went behind A Bao and pulled out Wang Wang, who was trembling and burying his head in the ground.
"It's your turn. Stop playing dead here, hurry up and go."
"Woof woof!"
"Stop woofing, I know you can talk. Hurry up and go, you embarrassing thing."
Losing patience, Chang'e used all her strength to throw Wang Wang into the air. In a panic, she also transformed into the Three-Headed Red Demon Mastiff and fiercely sprayed a scorching breath towards the thunder dragon in the sky.
The next second, the whimpering sounds of a beaten puppy filled everyone's ears.
As the Three-Headed Red Demon Mastiff lay on the ground twitching, Chang'e quickly went to her side and stuffed a Life Restoration Pill into the mouth of one of its heads. Then, grabbing its tail from behind, she dragged Wang Wang back.
"Da Ming, it's your turn again."
Da Ming swallowed again, his left hand already reaching for the Jade Bottle of Life Restoration Pills inside his python robe, his face filled with despair.
Fortunately, Ning Bei's voice, like a heavenly melody, reached the ears of the beasts.
"Alright, leave the rest to me."
As Ning Bei activated his Ice God's Protection and flew into the air to take on the remaining dozens of thunder dragons, the dark clouds in the sky finally returned to their original color, and the sky above the Far North Land became clear once more.
Returning to the golden pill, Ning Bei caught it with one hand.
"Ice God, it's done!"
The Three Giants of the Far North in his Sea of Consciousness seemed even more excited than he was. However, Ning Bei could understand; this was the key to the Ice God's Ninth Trial.
