Chapter 2 Heavenly Tribulation
Before dawn the next day, Qin Hao and his group quietly left Thunder City and headed towards Thunder Canyon.
Hunting spirit beasts to obtain their spirit essence, especially those listed among the top beasts in the "List of Ten Thousand Beasts," definitely requires keeping a low profile.
If the news leaks out, the other eight domains will definitely send people to snatch it.
This can be understood by referring to the Nine Nether Bird in the original work.
Putting aside other domains, the Willow Domain will definitely come to snatch it.
Although Thunder Canyon shares the same name as Thunder City, the two are not in the same place and are quite far apart.
It took Qin Yao and his group about ten days to reach Thunder Canyon.
Thunder Canyon, just as its name suggests, is filled with thunder throughout the year.
Even from a distance, Qin Hao could hear the thunder rumbling continuously.
"Young Master, Thunder Canyon is just ahead. According to our investigation over this period of time, the Thunderscale Dragon Python lives in the central area of the canyon."
Qin Hao nodded slightly. "Have everyone prepare to enter Thunder Canyon."
"yes!"
Stepping into Thunder Canyon, Qin Hao could clearly feel that the lightning power circulating between heaven and earth had become extremely concentrated.
This is also a characteristic of Thunder Canyon; it is shrouded in thunderstorms all year round, and the power of lightning inside is much stronger than in other places.
If a cultivator specializing in the Thunder Dao were to cultivate here, they should be able to achieve a 10-20% increase in their cultivation level.
"Young Master, please be careful."
Old Qin stepped forward and walked in front of Qin Hao. "The lightning power in Thunder Canyon is different from other times. It seems to be more violent."
"Berserk? Does this happen normally?" Qin Hao asked.
Old Qin shook his head. "Yes, there is a period of time each year when thunderstorms erupt above Thunder Canyon, during which the lightning power in the canyon becomes extremely violent."
However, judging from the timing, it's currently the dormant period for thunderstorms, and the lightning power within the canyon should be in a relatively stable state.
Qin Hao frowned slightly. "Won't this affect our plans?"
"Probably not, but we should still be careful. When the power of lightning goes berserk, the spirit beasts in the canyon will also become more ferocious and aggressive."
"Understood. Have everyone ready for battle at any time."
"clear."
The group carefully made their way through Thunder Canyon, getting closer and closer to the central area.
Along the way, they naturally encountered many spirit beasts that attacked them, but these were all spirit beasts at the Spirit Movement Realm and Spirit Wheel Realm, and they were all easily dealt with.
"Young Master, we have entered the central area. The habitat of the Thunderscale Dragon Python is about thirty miles ahead."
Qin Hao nodded in the direction Qin Lao pointed. "Have everyone rest. After they've rested, go hunt the Thunderscale Dragon Python."
"yes!"
After a period of rest, the group was back to their peak condition and began their journey toward the Thunderscale Dragon Python's lair.
"Young Master, something seems amiss."
"What's wrong?"
"The lightning power in this world seems extremely chaotic and violent, unlike normal conditions," Elder Qin explained.
"Boom!"
A deafening roar of thunder echoed across the sky, and surging crimson lightning descended from the heavens, striking the area not far in front of the crowd.
Looking in the direction where the crimson lightning struck, Qin Hao asked, "Elder Qin, is that place the lair of the Thunderscale Dragon Python?"
"That's right, that's the lair of the Thunderscale Dragon Python, but why is lightning descending today?"
At this moment, Qin Hao also had a vague guess in his mind.
Transcending tribulation and evolving.
Just as the Nine Nether Sparrow can undergo tribulation to evolve into the Nine Netherworld Sparrow, the Thunderscale Dragon Python, which possesses the bloodline of the Dragon Clan, naturally also has its own path to advancement.
The python transforms into a dragon, and the dragon transforms into a serpent!
If the Thunder Scale Dragon Python can survive the Dragon Transformation Tribulation, it can evolve into the Thunder Spirit Mad Dragon, ranking 14th on the Earth Ranking!
Thinking of this, Qin Hao's face lit up with joy. "Elder Qin, send someone to check if the Thunderscale Dragon Python is undergoing tribulation and evolving ahead."
"Transcending tribulation to evolve?"
Old Qin was taken aback, but then immediately reacted and beckoned the others to follow him to investigate the place where the crimson lightning had struck.
About five or six minutes later, Old Qin returned with his men, his face beaming with barely suppressed joy.
"Young Master, good news! The Thunderscale Dragon Python is indeed undergoing tribulation and evolving, just as you predicted."
And judging from their posture, they are unlikely to survive this tribulation. Our operation this time might be effortless.
Upon hearing this, everyone smiled.
Facing a spirit beast like the Thunderscale Dragon Python, which is listed on the Ten Thousand Beasts Record, they were under immense pressure.
Now that they heard that the Thunderscale Dragon Python might die directly under the Heavenly Tribulation, everyone was naturally overjoyed.
Qin Hao pondered for a moment, then continued, "Don't let your guard down. As you approach the area where the Thunderscale Dragon Python is undergoing its tribulation, set up spirit arrays where necessary to ensure everything goes smoothly."
"yes!"
A chorus of agreement rang out, and the group began to move closer to the site of the Thunderscale Dragon Python's tribulation.
As Qin Hao approached the place of tribulation, he personally witnessed the Thunder Scale Dragon Python churning in the sea of lightning.
The Thunderscale Python is about twenty meters long and its body is covered with black and purple scales. Lightning patterns faintly appear on the scales, and black and purple arcs of electricity constantly flash and leap on the scales.
It has a pair of sharp, dark purple dragon horns on its head, with lightning swirling around them. Every roar of the Thunderscale Dragon Python sends out terrifying lightning bolts from its horns, pointing straight at the thunderclouds in the sky.
"Young Master, everything is ready. The spirit array has been set up. We are just waiting for the Thunderscale Dragon Python to fail its tribulation."
"We still need to be careful and make sure everyone is ready to take action."
"clear."
"BOOM!!!"
Thunder roared continuously in the sky, and streaks of crimson lightning tore through the heavens and struck down relentlessly against the Thunderscale Dragon Python.
As the lightning struck, its violent power instantly tore apart the scales on the Thunderscale Dragon Python's body.
The Thunderscale Dragon Python, bathed in lightning, roared to the sky, letting out a series of unwilling howls. Brilliant lightning burst from its dragon horns as it fought against the heavenly tribulation.
Staring at the lightning-bathed Thunderscale Dragon Python, Qin Hao felt somewhat conflicted.
They both hoped that the Thunderscale Dragon would overcome the Heavenly Tribulation and transform, bringing them a more powerful essence, but they also did not want the Thunderscale Dragon Python to succeed, so that this hunt would be foolproof.
Under his watchful eye, the tribulation of the Thunderscale Dragon Python gradually drew to a close.
Under the baptism of thunder, the Thunderscale Dragon Python let out a joyful roar, and a faint golden light emerged from its horns and instantly spread throughout its entire body.
The charred scales began to peel off one by one, and brand new dragon scales grew out at full speed. The dragon scales had clear lightning patterns on them, and endless lightning power flowed on them.
The once rounded python body was now stretched and lengthened by the golden light, the four fleshy lumps under its belly wriggled violently, and dark purple dragon claws burst out of its body, tender but incomparably sharp.
"Quick, attack him!" Qin Hao shouted immediately.
Good news! The Thunderscale Dragon Python has successfully evolved and can now produce even more powerful essences.
Bad news: the Thunderscale Python has become even stronger!
