There was a mountain peak on Sea Peak Island, which was the highest peak in the area. It was called Thundercrest, and on top of the mountain was a three hundred meter tall, cylindrical object that was like a lightning rod, specifically designed to attract lightning to provide energy to the residents of the island.

The location of the lightning peak was not far from the port. As long as a person arrived at the port, they would be able to look up and see the incomparably tall lightning pillar.

Because of the existence of the lightning pillar, the lightning mountain was constantly attracting the floating lightning ions in the air. If it was a thunderstorm, the entire mountain would be filled with thunder and lightning.

The entire mountain peak had an elevation of three hundred meters and carried an electric current. The intensity of the current gradually decreased from the top to the bottom. When it reached the ground, ordinary people would only feel a slight numbing sensation, but it would not cause any harm to the human body.

However, once a person was over 500 feet high, the electric current would be over 50 mA, causing harm to the human body. Once a person was over 100 feet high, their body would be penetrated by the electric current.

Therefore, even though the summit of the Thundercrest Mountain was a wonder of Sea Peak Island, the people of Sea Peak Town wouldn't foolishly walk to the peak of the mountain to see the scene of the lightning dancing.

Therefore, there were no signs of humans on the summit. The entire mountain was bare, and not many plants survived.

Now, if someone happened to pass by the harbor, at the foot of the Thundercrest Mountain and raised their head to look, they would be shocked to discover that there was someone quietly sitting on the ground at the peak of the Thundercrest Mountain, seemingly unaffected by the terrifying electric current.

Upon closer inspection, there were traces of yellow lightning flashing on the surface of that person's body. Golden light radiated all over that person's body, making him look like the son of the Thunder God.

This person was Ling Yan, who ran away from Yi Xiaoyuan's house two days ago.

After Ling Yan came out, he originally wanted to find a quiet place to rest, but when he walked to a small path near the port, he keenly sensed the strange situation.

The 'Berserk Golden Body Tactic' gave him a body of thunder and lightning. It could directly absorb the essence of thunder between heaven and earth to strengthen the power of thunder within his body. This was why Ling Yan was exceptionally sensitive to thunder.

He was keenly aware that the nearby lightning element was very active, as if there was a lightning concentration camp.

The power of thunder was the most violent and raging energy in this world. It was a place filled with the power of thunder, so it was certain that it was a peaceful and quiet place. No one would disturb it, especially on this poor island.

Ling Yan had always wanted to find a quiet place, and the location of the power of thunder could be said to be the best place to do so.

After searching with his perception, Ling Yan soon found a mountain peak less than a kilometer away from the harbor.

The whole mountain actually contained electricity, and the higher one's perception was, the richer the thunder element was. Ling Yan was slightly delighted. He could feel that the power of thunder on this mountain was yellow, which was the power of thunder at the middle Profound Rank.

Ling Yan's current power of thunder had just entered the lower Profound Rank. This way, he could not only peacefully cultivate here, but also improve the quality of his own power of thunder.

Without much hesitation, Ling Yan climbed up the Thundercrest Peak and stayed there for two days.

Two days later, Ling Yan, who was sitting cross-legged on the summit of the Thundercrest Peak and meditating, slightly opened his eyes. A faint yellow light flashed from his eyes, and the air immediately began to emit crackling sounds of thunder.

Ling Yan stood up and deeply exhaled. After two days of recuperation, with the help of a large number of healing pills, his internal injuries were finally completely healed. It was time to take the Body Breaking Pill and break through to the 3rd level of the Mortal Spiritual Birth Stage!

Ling Yan clenched his fist, and a bright gleam flashed across his eyes.

After he broke through to the 3rd level of the Mortal Stage and learned the Heavenly Thunder Finger at the Thundercrest Mountain, he would return to the Southern Faction. Whether it was the Deep Sea Demon Octopus or that killer Hua Longning, none of them would be his match!

However, with the existence of the octopus in such a small place, it was definitely a disaster. Yi Xiaoyuan's family had done him a favor. If the octopus was still around, she would definitely kill it before she left!

Thinking up to this point, Ling Yan lifted his head and gazed into the distance, towards the shallow waters not far away.

With Ling Yan's eyesight, he could see everything within a kilometer of him.

Hm? Why are there ships in the shallow waters now?

Ling Yan frowned slightly as he muttered to himself. Promptly, his eyes narrowed as he instantly saw the figures within the sailboat.

Uncle Yi Jun?! Why was he here?!

From the looks of it, they seemed to be planning to kill something?

Combined with what had happened recently, were they here to kill the deep sea demon octopus?

Ling Yan's eyelids jumped up. This was simply nonsense! They probably didn't know the power of a top fourth-level vicious beast. This was far too dangerous. Once the Octopus appeared, none of them would be able to escape!

Just as Ling Yan was about to go over and warn them to return, Ling Yan's complexion suddenly changed, as if he had sensed something.

"Swoosh!"

A strong gust of wind blew past, and Ling Yan immediately disappeared from the mountaintop.
