“Who snatched it away?”

After a long silence, Lin Wudao asked coldly.

That was the corpse of a True God. He hadn’t even had the time to collect the corpse and it had been snatched away just like that?

At this moment, Lin Wudao felt as if he had lost hundreds of millions.

“Please forgive me, benefactor. This is the Tushan family’s fault. In the past, there had been a great change in the Tushan family and our powerhouses died one after another. Later on, many powerful clans coveted our Tushan family. Ten thousand years ago, the factions with the Canglan ancient race in the lead forcibly dug out our ancestral land and took all our resources and treasures. The item you stored in the Tushan family back then was also taken away. Later on, after the ancestors of the family inquired about it, they finally confirmed that the corpse had fallen into the hands of the Canglan ancient race,” Tushan Ming said apologetically.

Canglan ancient race?

Lin Wudao frowned when he heard the name.

As he had just arrived, he did not know much about the many factions in the Mountain Mausoleum Area.

“Where is the Canglan ancient race?”

“This… In the Canglan Ancient City of the Mountain Mausoleum Area’s eastern region, just a short distance away from Great Green Mountain. It is about eight million miles away, right next to the Canglan River,” Tushan Ming answered.

“Benefactor, the Tushan family has been incompetent. We didn’t protect your item. We are willing to take all the blame. If you have any requests, we will agree.”

Thump!

Tushan Ming kneeled straight on the ground, begging for punishment.

Seeing this, Lin Wudao just stood there, frowning and not saying a word.

“Sigh…” After a long time, he sighed, “Looks like I’m not fated to have this item…”

After saying that, Lin Wudao immediately turned around and prepared to leave.

“Benefactor, please wait!”

Right when he turned around, Tushan Ming’s voice sounded again.

“Do you still need something?”

“This… Benefactor, although we lost the corpse, the Tushan family has never given up searching for it for ten thousand years. We have always been paying attention to its whereabouts. According to our understanding, the ancient corpse is still in the Canglan ancient race. It seems to be treated as their tribe’s treasure. About 8,000 years ago, the ancestor of the Canglan ancient race brought it into the ancestral grave. If nothing unexpected has happened, it should still be well preserved,” Tushan Ming said in a deep voice.

Hmm? It was in the ancestral grave of the Canglan ancient race?

Lin Wudao narrowed his eyes when he heard the news. This was a pleasant surprise.

“Are you sure that the corpse is still there?”

“Yes, yes. That corpse is too powerful. Ever since the Canglan ancient race snatched it away, they’ve been worshipping it as their clan’s treasure. Whenever the Canglan ancient race is in danger, they will dig that corpse out from the ancestral grave,” Tushan Ming explained carefully.

Hearing this, Lin Wudao nodded, “I see.”

Whoosh!

He replied indifferently and instantly disappeared from where he was.

Sigh…

Looking at Lin Wudao’s back, Tushan Ming sighed bitterly.

At the same time, the huge rock in his heart was finally lifted. Because they lost that True God’s body, the Tushan family had been living in fear for ten thousand years. Now, this matter finally had an outcome. Fortunately, the other party did not blame them.

“I hope that the benefactor can find his corpse. Otherwise, our Tushan family will have committed a great sin. Sigh, if it wasn’t for the great disaster ten thousand years ago, where all our ancestors died, the Tushan family wouldn’t have fallen to such a state today,” Tushan Ming sighed heavily and felt even more bitter in his heart.

Lin Wudao didn’t know about his sorrowful sigh.

Whoosh!

After leaving the Qingshan tribe, he went straight back to Qingshan Temple.

Now that he knew that the True God’s corpse had been taken away by the Canglan ancient race and that it was still intact, Lin Wudao was temporarily relieved.

From now on, he would have plenty of time and opportunities to personally head to the Canglan ancient race and take back what belonged to him.

As for now, the most important thing was, of course, to make use of the identity and power of the Qingshan Demonic God to obtain greater benefits.

After all, he only had one month.

Thinking of this, Lin Wudao waited patiently in Qingshan Temple.

The next day, early in the morning, Tushan Cangyue arrived at Qingshan Temple.

Seeing this, Lin Wudao didn’t waste any time and revealed his doppelganger in the form of divine light.

Tushan Cangyue was shocked by this scene.

“Greetings, Qingshan Great God.”

She knelt piously.

“Get up. Yesterday, 1 promised you that I would go to Thunder Swamp to obtain the Great

World Seal for you. There’s no time to lose. Let’s go now.”

Boom!

Saying this, Lin Wudao waved his hand and swept Tushan Cangyue up, disappearing from the temple.

Thunder Swamp was located eight thousand miles west of Qingshan Temple, right on the border of the Qingshan Demonic God’s divine region.

Whoosh!

When Lin Wudao and Tushan Cangyue arrived at Thunder Swamp, they raised their eyes and saw that the area where Thunder Swamp was located was dark, with raging thunderbolts in the air.

From time to time, heavenly thunder would descend from the sky with extremely terrifying momentum.

In addition, there were also many powerful thunder beasts living in the Thunder Swamp. They fed on the power of thunder. As their bodies had been baptized by thunder for many years, their physical defense was extremely strong.

Furthermore, powerful thunder beasts could even control the power of thunder and use it for attacks.

“The thunder power of Thunder Lake seems a little too violent.”

He looked around and frowned. He noticed that the area of Thunder Lake was somewhat unusual.

“Great God, today seems to be the day the thunder beast king transcends its tribulation, so the power of thunder is abnormally active and powerful,” Tushan Cangyue explained carefully.

Hmm? Thunder beast king’s tribulation?

Hearing this, Lin Wudao’s heart skipped a beat.

According to the records of the Qingshan Divine Code, the king of the thunder beast race would undergo a tribulation every thousand years after reaching the Divine Mansion realm. Every time it successfully passed the baptism of the thunder tribulation, its strength would increase by a major realm.

It was one of the stronger xenogenic creatures in the Mountain Mausoleum Area.

In the past, during the era of Qingshan Demonic God, the strongest thunder beast king in the Thunder Swamp was as powerful as a True God. That was the peak of the thunder beast race.

After so many years, what kind of strength would the thunder beast king have now?

Thinking of this, Lin Wudao waited with anticipation.

Rumble!

As time passed, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and many terrifying thunderbolts swam in the void. The vast heavenly might enveloped a radius of one million feet.

There was a suffocating feeling.

“From the looks of this heavenly might, the thunder beast king’s strength is probably quite extraordinary,” Lin Wudao speculated.

Boom!

Just as he was bewildered, the dark and decaying water surface of Thunder Swamp suddenly exploded, accompanied by a huge boom and a ferocious and violent aura.

Soon after, a three-hundred-meter-tall, horned beast with eyes like bronze bells and thunder around its body appeared in the air, emitting a monstrous might.

Roar!

Roar!

Roar!

With the appearance of the thunder beast king, a powerful and ferocious aura soared into the sky. Many thunder beasts rushed out of the Thunder Swamp and tightly surrounded the thunder beast king in the center.

Their eyes were filled with boundless respect.

“Divine Illumination realm?”

Lin Wudao was surprised when he scanned the beast with God’s Spiritual Eye.

The thunder beast king before him was much weaker than he had expected. The Divine Illumination realm was only the sixth realm within the ten divine minor realms.

“In that case, this thunder beast has passed at least six thunder tribulations, which means it has definitely lived for more than ten thousand years.” Lin Wudao thought to himself.

He began to check the information of the thunder beast king in front of him.

[Name: Thunder beast king]

[Race: Thunder beast]

[Ability: Perfection of the Divine Illumination realm]

[Remark: 1. It has successfully transcended the tribulation six times.]

[2. Due to the corrosion of evil substance, the king bloodline of the thunder beast race had been weakened by more than half, and its potential has become far inferior to when the Mountain Mausoleum Area was first established.]

[3. 80,000 years ago, the rules of the Mountain Mausoleum Area were changed. All living beings in the area are not allowed to surpass the seventh realm in the ten divine minor realms, the Divine Power realm.]

[4. It has already failed three times to transcend the tribulation and reach the Divine Power realm. ]

[5. By removing the evil substance, it can recover its bloodline and potential.)

…

A lot of information appeared before Lin Wudao’s eyes.

Hmm? It had been corroded by evil substance?

Lin Wudao frowned.

Previously, Tushan Cangyue was also corroded by the evil substance on the day she was born, and 99% of her potential had been cut off.

Now, the thunder beast race had also fallen to such a state.

“Could it be that the evil substance was deliberately created by someone?”

Suddenly, a terrifying thought appeared in his mind..
