Chapter 193 Ch 193: Lightning Nightmare Beast

Because of the Congealing Bead, Alex now knew where to find the treasures and the key left behind by the Tribe of Tomorrow. It is just that the leader had set up a test for the one who wants to obtain his treasures. It means he needed to first pass the test before he could obtain the treasures and the key to open the gate where the Stone of Tomorrow is hidden.

Alex was able to know about the test because of the Congealing Bead. This small mountain range now belonged to Alex, but even so, if he wants to obtain the treasures hidden inside one of the mountains, he has to first pass the test.

Well, there was another thing that Alex doesn't know. Although he knew he has to pass a test, he doesn't know what that test actually is.

.....

Alex soon arrived in front of the mountain where the treasure was hidden. He soon found the entrance that went straight into the depths of the mountain.

Without hesitation, he entered.

However, he hasn't even walked for long when a bolt of lightning shot toward him all of a sudden.

Alex moved slightly and dodged it. He stared at it. Not far away, a one-meter-tall lightning beast was roaring at him.

[Name: Lightning Beast

Grade: Level 5 Demonic Beast.

Talent: High Grade Thunder Attribute Talent.

Abilities: Thunder Rush, Lightning Slash, Thunder Impact, Lightning Blade,...]

Alex grinned when he saw this and said, "A level 5 lightning beast? It is only equivalent to a Golden Core Stage martial warrior. Is this the test? Isn't it too easy to pass?"

"I don't even need to use Chaos Energy. Just the strength of my body is enough to kill it!"

Alex immediately stomped on the ground and exploded like a cannonball.

Lightning beasts didn't have intelligence. When it saw Alex running towards it, this lightning beast also roared and charged toward him.

"Go to hell!" Alex shouted and swung his fist down, penetrating the Level 5 lightning beast's body in an instant.

That Level 5 lightning beast's body froze, and it shattered into pieces like a piece of ice. At the same time, a purple bead fell into Alex's hand.

A slight numbing feeling came from the center of his palm.

Alex curiously looked at the bead in his palm, "This is?"

[Name: Lightning Bead.

Grade: Level 5.

Details: Lightning Beads can be used to refine the body and make it stronger. It could also be used to feed Thunder and Lightning Attributed demonic beasts to make them stronger. It can also assist a person in evolving their Thunder Attribute Talent.]

Alex was surprised. He didn't expect to gain something at this place. Although it was only a Level 5 treasure, there is no doubt that it is useful. With a flick of his wrist, the Lightning Bead was put into Alex's Storage Space.

​ After that, he continued his journey.

Along the way, he encountered a lot of lightning beasts. It was unknown whether it was Alex's luck or Alex's misfortune, but most of the lightning beasts he met were Level 5 or Level 6 lightning beasts, and there was only one Level 7 lightning beast.

These kinds of lightning beasts were not a threat to Alex. Although it was much safer to encounter these lower leveled lightning beasts, but dealing with them was also a waste of Alex's time.

.....

After half a day, Alex looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh. There was no sky to see, everything was covered by the wall of the mountain.

"No way, can't a superior lightning beast come? I've encountered a total of thirty-three Level 5 Lightning Beasts, eleven Level 6 Lightning Beasts, and only one Level 7 Lightning Beast. Is this really the test? This is all just a waste of time!"

Alex was still complaining when a bird-type lightning beast flew over from above. Its wings were five or six meters long. Alex was pleasantly surprised when he saw it. He said with some excitement: "Finally, a Level 8 Lightning Beast that is equivalent to a Crystal Transformation Stage martial warrior. Hahaha! Come at me!"

The bird-type lightning beast flew in the air as its body crackled with thousands of bolts of lightning. The next instant, the destructive force of thunder and lightning rushed toward Alex. This attack made Alex feel a strong sense of threat.

To be able to make him have such a feeling, this bird-type lightning beast was undoubtedly a superior thunder beast.

The bird-type lightning beast had obviously noticed Alex as well, and it immediately let out a shrill cry. This sound was extremely destructive and the surrounding rocks that were condensed from the power of lightning instantly collapsed.

Alex immediately covered his ears. Even Alex felt dizzy from the shockwave.

At this moment, the bird-type lightning beast opened its mouth and a purple lightning bolt struck down.

"Sh*t!!"

Alex quickly retreated.

However, the attack was too fast. In an instant, it landed in front of Alex. Fortunately, Alex was able to dodge in time. Only a small portion of the lightning struck Alex's body.

Even so, Alex was still sent flying, causing him to bleed from the corner of his mouth.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Alex's expression turned serious. "Worthy of being a superior lightning beast. Thanks to my strong body I'm safe, otherwise, it wouldn't be as simple as spitting out a mouthful of blood. "

"Golden Flame Scorpion King Bloodline, Activate!"

Alex shouted in a low voice. A red flaming armor appeared on Alex's body that made him look like a god of war that had descended to the mortal world.

This transformation was different from before which surprised Alex. He didn't know the reason why this happened, but it doesn't matter for the time being. He'll speculate the reason later, but first, he has to deal with the lightning beast.

Scarlet flames swept out of his body as a fierce pressure spread out in all directions. Unfortunately, the lightning beast still didn't have any intelligence. The bird in the air couldn't sense any changes in the surroundings, and the purple lightning bolts kept striking down from its mouth.

However, when the lightning struck Alex this time, although the lightning was coiling around Alex's body, it seemed like he was bathing in the lightning. However, this lightning couldn't affect Alex at all!

The Fire Armor on his body had greatly increased Alex's defensive strength, and with the addition of his physical fitness, it was not difficult for him to endure the attacks of this Crystal Transformation Stage demonic beast.

Alex grinned at this moment and said, "It's my turn to attack!"

Because of the Golden Flame Scorpion King Bloodline, Alex could manipulate fire as he wishes. He immediately formed a flaming first and smacked it out. A huge flaming fist shot out like a comet toward the lightning beast flying in the air.

"Boom!"

A world-shaking explosion rang out the moment it landed on the lightning beast's body. Although it tried to escape by dodging Alex's attack previously, it was unable to.

When Alex's fist attack landed on its body, it let out a painful screech but before it could even endure this pain, flames spread all over its body. And it was at this time that Alex took out the Heavy Earth Sword and slashed out, instantly killing the lightning beast.

Just like other lightning beasts, it also produced a lightning bead. A bead fell from the sky and landed in Alex's hand. Alex could clearly feel the terrifying lightning energy contained within the lightning bead.

Alex smiled and put away the Lightning Bead. He has to continue his journey now. It seems the deeper he'll go, the stronger the lightning beast he'll face.

Alex had only walked about three hundred meters when his ears twitched as he heard footsteps approaching.

"Hmm?"

"Someone is coming? But... how could someone be inside this place? There shouldn't be anyone." Alex was really surprised when he heard the sound of footsteps and muttered. At the same time, he revealed a confused expression on his face.

Very quickly, a figure appeared in Alex's line of sight. Alex found this figure somewhat familiar. Then he suddenly remembered who this person actually is. It was Antonio.

Now, this was a real surprise.

Alex was very shocked. He couldn't comprehend the current situation at all. He couldn't say what is going on.

"It's you!!"

When Antonio saw Alex, he was also shocked. And for some reason, his eyes became heated.

Alex couldn't believe that Antonio was really standing in front of him. He hurriedly used his System to see the opponent's attribute panel.

[Name: Lightning Nightmare Beast.

Grade: Royal Rank.

Talent: Royal Grade Thunder Attribute Talent, Myriad Illusion Creation Talent.

Abilities: Thunder Blade, Lightning Impact, Myriad Body Change,...

Note: Be careful, for this nightmare beast might duplicate the looks of a person from your memory against you.]

Only after looking at the attribute panel did Alex understand what happened just now and why Antonio appeared in front of him.

This was the first time he had seen a talent like Myriad Illusion Creation Talent. This talent is really useful.
