Top-tier Unruly Master-Chapter 1607 - 1644: Danger Everywhere

At this moment, an oasis came into view of Ding Fan and Guo Linn, and both of them couldn’t help but feel very excited. Obviously, they had had enough of the harsh desert environment. For Guo Linn, if he hadn’t been relatively lucky, he definitely wouldn’t have survived in this desert for so long.

As for Ding Fan, if he didn’t have a few more tricks up his sleeve and relied on the Pure Thunder Pill and the Frost Toad, he probably wouldn’t have been able to survive this desert, either. Moreover, Ding Fan knew that this was no ordinary desert, but the desert within the Xuantian Secret Realm, which was likely a hundred times more terrifying than those in the Cultivation World.

"Big brother, your judgment was correct. This is simply unbelievable!"

Guo Linn looked at the oasis, which was only a few dozen kilometers away, with great admiration for Ding Fan in his heart. He also secretly felt lucky that encountering this big brother was his greatest fortune. Guo Linn was very certain that if it weren’t for big brother noticing the peculiarity of this oasis,

he would have probably walked far in the opposite direction. He definitely wouldn’t have reached the oasis before dark today and might never have found it. He knew all too well the dangers of this desert.

He believed that if he hadn’t met big brother, he likely wouldn’t have survived until nightfall today.

In his heart, Guo Linn greatly admired Ding Fan, as he couldn’t fathom how big brother discerned that the oasis they saw earlier was an illusion of a real oasis. He himself couldn’t manage to do it, and he was a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, almost at the peak.

In his era, there were very few juniors who could defeat him, but he couldn’t tell the reality of the oasis at all. He had always believed in big brother, and no matter what decision big brother made, he would trust him. He knew that they were a team in the Xuantian Secret Realm, and only by sticking together could they survive better.

In fact, Guo Linn vaguely knew that it was only because he needed big brother. Without big brother’s presence, he might have already died.

"Big brother, thank you again. If it weren’t for you, even if I hadn’t been killed by those Silver Wolves, I wouldn’t have been able to make it out of this desert."

Guo Linn, with a very sincere expression, gratefully said to Ding Fan.

Ding Fan waved his hand and said:

"There’s no need for thanks; your trust in me was your choice. We are in the Xuantian Secret Realm, and we’re a team. Don’t mention gratitude anymore. If you really want to thank me, let’s both survive to leave the Xuantian Secret Realm first, and then you can thank me."

"Yes, big brother! I’ll listen to everything you say."

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Guo Linn replied earnestly.

"Let’s hurry. It’s already getting dark, and we should try to reach the oasis before nightfall."

After Ding Fan said this, Guo Linn responded seriously, and the two of them quickened their pace towards the oasis. Both knew that if the desert was already so dangerous during the day, it would be much more terrifying at night. Although Guo Linn hadn’t encountered the scorpions and Yuan Beasts Ding Fan talked about last night, he couldn’t always be this lucky.

But just after they had walked a few hundred meters, the sky suddenly became overcast, and waves of Mysterious Thunder started rolling down. These were even more terrifying than the Mysterious Thunder Ding Fan encountered alone before, with a rumbling...

Rumble...

A cacophony of booming sounds, and streaks of Mysterious Thunder struck down chaotically without any pattern. The Mysterious Thunder was terrifyingly powerful, creating huge craters on the sandy surface. The deepest parts of these craters turned black, even charring the heat-resistant and fireproof sand.

One could see how powerful this Mysterious Thunder was. It wasn’t just Ding Fan and Guo Linn, cultivators at the Nascent Soul Mid Stage; even a Divided Spirit Stage cultivator would have no choice but to run for their life against this Mysterious Thunder. But escaping was far from possible for Ding Fan and his companion.

The area affected by the Mysterious Thunder was vast, already surrounding Ding Fan and Guo Linn, covering an area several hundred kilometers in diameter with overcast clouds.

Seeing this scene, Guo Linn couldn’t help but panic. He had witnessed the power of the Mysterious Thunder before, but he had only been at a safe distance. Now, he found himself deep in the heart of this Mysterious Thunder, and his mind couldn’t help but be in turmoil.

Guo Linn knew that this Mysterious Thunder was not something he and Ding Fan could handle. He didn’t know how big brother managed to survive the previous Mysterious Thunder, but he could only attribute it to luck, just like his own. But clearly, their luck seemed to have run out. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Anxiously looking at big brother Ding Fan, Guo Linn couldn’t help but ask:

"Big brother, what should we do?"

Rumble!

As soon as Guo Linn finished speaking, a bolt of Mysterious Thunder suddenly struck down on him, mercilessly and emotionlessly, filled with the taste of death.

Guo Lin never expected that even the heavens wouldn’t give him a chance to speak! He shivered suddenly, his body tensed, but moments later, he realized he felt nothing and involuntarily opened his eyes to look upward.

A Pure Thunder Pill appeared in Guo Lin’s vision, leaving him stunned. He couldn’t believe there was a Thunder Pill above his head. Although he had never actually seen a Thunder Pill, he had heard about it; it was a rare treasure that was hardly seen once in a millennium. Guo Lin didn’t expect to see such a treasure in his lifetime!

Simultaneously, Guo Lin felt a sense of luck that the Thunder Pill had appeared just in time to save him. He pondered where this Thunder Pill had come from and why it came to his rescue while also glancing beside him at his big brother. He suddenly discovered that there was a group of Power of Thunder surrounding his brother, looking exactly like the scene around the Thunder Pill above him.

This left Guo Lin in amazement, and he finally understood that the Thunder Pill was released by his big brother to save him. He knew this was the only possibility. Despite not fully understanding Thunder Pills, he was very aware that he wasn’t lucky enough to not only see a Thunder Pill in his lifetime but also for it to save him.

There was absolutely no chance of such a thing happening, so the Thunder Pill must belong to his big brother.

Guo Lin was left speechless, his face filled with astonishment, unable to comprehend how his big brother could possess such an incredible treasure; it was absolutely mind-blowing.

One must know that this Thunder Pill is something that occurs once in a millennium, and for cultivators, not only is it rare to own such a thing, but even hoping to see it once in their lifetime is extremely difficult.

Right now, Guo Lin gazed at the Thunder Pill above Ding Fan’s head, absorbing the Mysterious Thunder around them. The Mysterious Thunder penetrated the Thunder Pill like dragon-serpents, and every time a Mysterious Thunder entered the pill, its bright purple light would flicker, looking very magical.

While Guo Lin was in a daze, the thunderous noise around them subsided, making the surroundings less deafening, which Guo Lin found quite miraculous. He knew that while the Mysterious Thunder was likely his big brother’s, seeing such a rare treasure in his lifetime was a great stroke of luck.

"Don’t just stand there, quickly go!"

Ding Fan shouted urgently when he saw Guo Lin staring blankly.

Hearing his big brother’s words, Guo Lin immediately snapped out of it. He realized their current situation was far from optimistic. He answered, then quickly followed Ding Fan toward the oasis, noticing the Thunder Pill above their heads moving along with them, leaving him astonished.

"Big brother, your Thunder Pill is truly amazing!"

Ding Fan heard his words and said with a heavy expression:

"We need to leave here quickly; the Thunder Pill won’t last long."

Guo Lin heard this and his heart became heavy; he hurriedly replied:

"Yes."

After walking for some time, the Mysterious Thunder dissipated, and the Thunder Pill returned to Ding Fan’s hand, who put it away. Guo Lin witnessed this and couldn’t help but feel envious, for such a treasure was rare to come by, making it unbelievable that his big brother could possess it!

At this moment, Guo Lin further understood what his master often told him about the importance of opportunity for cultivators. Guo Lin knew that his big brother’s incredible power must be the result of many opportunities. However, Guo Lin also realized that for some cultivators, encountering an opportunity doesn’t necessarily mean obtaining it; it still depends on one’s own cultivation.

Guo Lin knew that even if his big brother gave him the Thunder Pill in his hand, he wouldn’t be able to accept it. He was very aware that Thunder Pills were not ordinary items; they contained massive amounts of energy, and for him, they would be a disaster rather than an opportunity.

Thus, Guo Lin wasn’t particularly envious of the Thunder Pill Ding Fan possessed, but rather of his big brother’s strength. He knew that it was precisely because of his big brother’s prowess that he could successfully acquire opportunities.

During their journey, the two didn’t talk much. The Mysterious Thunder from before had already indicated that this desert wasn’t a place for play, being extremely dangerous. Therefore, both conserved their energy to deal with any threats, until suddenly, another round of Mysterious Thunder floated towards them, making them incredibly shocked.

The desert weather truly had no pattern—one moment it was a clear day, the next instant it was filled with Mysterious Thunder, keeping them perpetually alert, especially Guo Lin, who was very tense. However, with Ding Fan’s Pure Thunder Pill, they faced the Mysterious Thunder with less fear.

Ding Fan released the Pure Thunder Pill, immediately clearing the Mysterious Thunder from their surroundings.

Through Ding Fan’s explanation, Guo Lin gradually learned that the Thunder Pill had a saturation point. If the Thunder Pill reached a bursting threshold, it would stop absorbing the Mysterious Thunder, and at that time, they would be in real danger. But fortunately, the Mysterious Thunder came in bursts along the way.

Soon, the Mysterious Thunder dissipated again. Among them, Ding Fan and Guo Lin encountered some relatively Earth Level Yuan Beasts, giving them a start but gradually getting used to it, knowing they must be prepared for all kinds of dangers in the desert.

Thankfully, those Yuan Beasts were relatively weak, and Ding Fan and Guo Lin soon dispatched them.
