It was like thunder exploding in their ears. Even though they had covered their ears, Jing Lingwei and the others still felt a "buzzing" echo in their ears, and their minds instantly fell into a blank state.
Even their bodies seemed to be paralyzed by the loud noise, frozen in place and unable to move.
"Where did such a terrible noise come from?"
"Is it the roar of thunder?"
“But isn’t this celestial phenomenon only filled with absolute darkness?
Where does the power of thunder come from?”
Although no one said it out loud, this was the common sentiment shared by Jing Lingwei and the others at this moment.
They are warriors at the pinnacle of the imperial level, and their cultivation is at its peak. Even if it rains and thunders, and lightning strikes them, it will not pose much of a threat to them.
However, just now, they had all covered their ears in advance, and the loud noise still shook their souls and made them paralyzed.
One can imagine how terrifying the loud noise just now was.
Of course, the more amazing thing is yet to come.
After the loud noise, the absolute darkness in front of them seemed to be dispersed and quickly became clear.
"That's...a little snake?"
When her vision returned to normal, Guang Siying was the first to let out a low cry.
Because she suddenly saw a colorful mini snake that was only five feet long, turned into a ray of light and disappeared into Ye Chen's space bracelet.
"Ye Chen, who were you calling just now?
Who is Xiaoqi again?"
"How did you dispel the absolute darkness?
What happened to that deafening explosion just now?"
"Could this little snake be the Xiao Qi in your mouth?"
After seeing the scene in front of them clearly, Jing Lingwei and others were very curious.
But before Ye Chen could answer, Jing Lingwei suddenly seemed to realize something. She looked at the mini snake suspended in mid-air and exclaimed, "It, it is the Thunder-Swallowing Sky-Swallowing Python?"
As soon as these words came out, Guang Siying and Nangong Dou were so frightened that they staggered back, their faces full of panic.
The Thunder-Swallowing Sky-Swallowing Python is an ancient ferocious beast that can harness the most tyrannical power of thunder and lightning.
To this day, they have only seen it in Leiyu Lake, a restricted area of life.
In terms of appearance and color alone, it is exactly the same as this five-foot-long mini snake.
The whole body is colorful, there are barbs on both sides of the head, and the pupils are green.
but……
The little snake in front of you is too small, right?
As for the Thunder-Swallowing Sky Python, even when it is young, its body is several miles long and as thick as a huge river.
In other words, even the newly born Thunder-Swallowing Sky Python cannot be so small.
"Yes, Xiao Qi is indeed the Thunder-Swallowing Sky-Swallowing Python!"
Since he was seen by Jing Lingwei and others, Ye Chen did not hide it, "And you should have met him at Thunder Rain Lake before."
"Thunderstorm Lake?"
Nangong Dou exclaimed, "It can't be that one..."
"good!"
Before Nangong Dou finished speaking, he was picked up by Ye Chen, "That's the young thunder-swallowing sky-swallowing python that attacked us!"
"But its body...ah, I understand, it is your battle pet now, and its body has shrunk, right?"
Only halfway through speaking, Nangong Dou understood instantly, but his face was filled with horror and disbelief at the same time.
Jing Lingwei and Guang Siying also looked at each other, looking at the mini snake with fear in their eyes.
Back when they were in Leiyu Lake, the huge size of the young Thunder-swallowing Sky-Swallowing Python and the terrifying thunder and lightning it released left an indelible impression on them.
Thinking back on it now, it still makes them frightened.
They never thought that the fierce and powerful thunder-swallowing sky-swallowing python was just a few feet away at this moment. How could they not be vigilant and afraid?
"Yes, Xiao Qi is the young thunder-swallowing sky-swallowing python that attacked us in Thunder Rain Lake."
Ye Chen reached out and touched the head of the colorful snake, and explained: "The loud noise just now was the thunder and lightning it released!"
Instead of resisting, the little snake stretched out its head docilely and rubbed Ye Chen's palm, just like a pet snake, very cute and cute.
"Is it the thunder and lightning it releases that dispels the absolute darkness?"
Jing Lingwei asked.
"Yes!"
Ye Chen raised his head and glanced at the darkness shrinking on the dome, "The absolute light between heaven and earth is the nemesis of absolute darkness, and the absolute light comes from the power of thunder and lightning."
"But it is the Thunder-Swallowing Sky-Swallowing Python, an ancient ferocious beast that is wild and difficult to tame. How did you..."
Before Jing Lingwei finished speaking, Ye Chen said first, "I'll do one thing first, and then I'll tell you in detail!"
After that, he slowly rose into the sky and flew towards the darkness on the dome.
Xiao Qi, on the other hand, was one step ahead and rushed in front of him.
Before it got close, it opened its mouth and sprayed.
"boom!"
There was a deafening explosion, and a domineering lightning struck upwards again. The blazing light emitted instantly blurred all surrounding objects.
Jing Lingwei, Guang Siying, and Nangong Dou felt their eyes suddenly brighten up, and the light was so intense that it barely missed them.
The loud noise that reached their ears was about to shake their souls.
"It's really a lightning-swallowing python!"
"Ye Chen actually accepted such a ferocious beast as a battle pet?"
Although their ears were buzzing and their eyes stung like needles, Guang Siying and the others were extremely frightened.
And as the lightning flashed, the darkness above had nowhere to hide. It retreated to the corner of the dome and roared, as if it had encountered a natural enemy.
But this hall is closed. No matter how frightening the absolute darkness above is, there is no way to retreat.
"Submit or be driven away!"
Ye Chen flew to the void a few feet away from the dome and stopped. He forced out a drop of blood from his fingertips, wrapped it with spiritual power and sent it to the absolute darkness. "If you surrender, merge into my blood and stay with me inside."
Sign a contract with a ray of soul mark!"
"Woo!"
Absolute darkness is like paint and ink, rolling back and forth in the corners like a tide.
But it seems that he is still afraid of the thunder and lightning released by the Thunder Swallowing Sky Python, and he never dares to rush out.
"Xiao Qi, please step back first!"
Seeing the fear of absolute darkness, Ye Chen immediately waved to Xiao Qi.
The thunder-swallowing sky-swallowing python, which had shrunk to only five feet long, instantly turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the space bracelet on his wrist.
Despite this, the absolute darkness huddled in the corner of the dome still did not dare to attack Ye Chen and cowered away.
"I'll say it one last time!"
Ye Chen said patiently: "Either surrender to me, or I will completely drive you away!"
"Woo!"
The piece of absolute darkness seemed to understand Ye Chen's words, or sensed his intention. It rotated in the corner for a moment, and actually formed a thin thread, drilling towards the drop of blood that Ye Chen brought close to him.
At first, it was just a thin line of darkness, but later, more and more darkness followed, like a flood, roaring loudly.
However, absolute darkness seemed to cover the entire hundred-foot-wide hall, and in the end it was concentrated into a drop of Ye Chen's blood.
Until the last trace of absolute darkness submerged into the blood, Ye Chen finally had a spiritual connection with it.
That's a sign that a soul contract has been concluded!
Looking at the drop of blood again, it is no longer scarlet, but has become as black as ink, extremely deep, and the color is indescribably weird.
