Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu

"What's going on? Could it be that Grandpa Tianyun and the others didn't come down?" Luo Yiyi also voiced her doubts with some confusion.

"That's impossible, I clearly saw Senior Tianyun leading Xiaowu and the others down here with us," Shi Yao expressed her skepticism.

"Or perhaps, they are above the white clouds!" Chu Qin's brows furrowed slightly.

"Chu Qin, do you mean to say that there might be something like a Floating Island above the white clouds?" Luo Yiyi asked.

"Yes." Chu Qin nodded in affirmation.

"That's possible!" Luo Yiyi and Shi Yao exclaimed in unison.

"Then Chu Qin, how do we get up there?" Luo Yiyi inquired.

Chu Qin shook his head, "I don't know either. Let me give it a try!"

Chu Qin paused for a moment, his legs bent slightly, then he suddenly leaped up. With his jumping ability far beyond that of an ordinary person, he reached a height of several thousand meters, but sadly it wasn't sufficient to touch the white clouds.

"It's no use!" Chu Qin sighed softly.

"Does this mean we are going to be trapped here to die?" Shi Yao's fine eyebrows knit together. It didn't matter much to her; being with Chu Qin, she felt comfortable.

However, she knew Chu Qin definitely wouldn't think so; with Xiaowu and the others missing, Chu Qin would be very anxious.

Compared to her own happiness, she didn't want Chu Qin to worry.

"Chu Qin, how about we go and capture the leader of the dragons and have it fly us up?" Luo Yiyi, struck by a sudden idea, suggested.

"Good idea!" Chu Qin and Shi Yao nodded simultaneously.

Without further ado, Chu Qin led the two women to search for the dragon's whereabouts. However, the dragons in the Pixiu Secret Realm seemed to have vanished without a trace, leaving them with no results.

"Could it be, Chu Qin, that the dragon you killed yesterday was the last one?" The three of them sat down as Luo Yiyi spoke breathlessly.

"Yes, it must have been; we have been searching for a whole day now. We shouldn't have killed it!" Shi Yao said.

"Yet, you two seemed to enjoy eating it quite a lot," Chu Qin said with a smile.

Shi Yao and Luo Yiyi both revealed slightly embarrassed smiles.

"Why don't the two of you take a rest for a while, and I'll go look on other mountaintops!" Chu Qin suggested to Shi Yao and Luo Yiyi.

Both of them shook their heads in unison.

"No, I want to follow you!" Luo Yiyi, embracing one of Chu Qin's shoulders, looked at him and insisted.

"Yes!" followed Shi Yao, who then embraced his right shoulder, "I do too."

Shi Yao and Luo Yiyi had grown accustomed to being protected and cared for by Chu Qin.

Moreover, Chu Qin's upper body was bare, and as the two women clung to his arms from either side, it was their first time feeling his extremely comfortable skin, which caused them to unconsciously cling a bit tighter.

This contact brought their softness against Chu Qin's arms.

"All right, stay close," Chu Qin said, his voice betraying no concern for Luo Yiyi and Shi Yao's actions, and he smiled faintly.

"Mm-hmm!"

Both women's faces brightened with joy; since Chu Qin didn't mind, they had no intention of letting go either.

Certainly not intending to push Shi Yao and Luo Yiyi away deliberately, Chu Qin led them out of the jungle and onto a grassland.

"Chu Qin, look, what is that?!" At this moment, Luo Yiyi pointed ahead to an object in front of them, exclaiming in surprise.

"This is!" Chu Qin, immediately leading Luo Yiyi and Shi Yao, hurried over.

They found that there was a sizable hole in the ground before them, inside which lay a golden metal armor, with a crimson Great Sword embedded in it.

"Immovable Ming King Sword!"

"Lei Di Puppet!"

Upon a clear view of the object, both Luo Yiyi and Shi Yao voiced their excitement in succession.

"Yes, this is the Lei Di Puppet," Chu Qin also expressed some surprise.

"After such a massive explosion, this metallic shell has no damage whatsoever!" Luo Yiyi was somewhat stunned.

It was evident that the metallic shell was intact, aside from the slit where the Immovable Ming King Sword was inserted, the rest of it was undamaged.

"Chu Qin, look!" At that moment, Shi Yao called out in astonishment.

The three of them noticed that the Lei Di Puppet's hand was moving. Chu Qin immediately put the women behind him instinctively. "No way, it's still alive?"

However, just then, the Lei Di Puppet spoke up, "Save... save me!"

"Is it asking to be saved?" Shi Yao said, astonished.

"It seems so!" Luo Yiyi nodded, equally amazed, "But isn't the Lei Di Puppet supposed to be just a puppet... No, is it a living puppet?"

"What did you say!" Chu Qin turned towards the Lei Di Puppet.

"Save me, save me!" The Lei Di Puppet slightly lifted its trembling palm.

"Chu Qin, what should we do!" Luo Yiyi and Shi Yao asked. If the Lei Di Puppet was resurrected, they would be completely at a disadvantage in their current situation.

"Fear not, if we possess no Divine Power, he won't have it either!" Chu Qin assured the two with a gesture, and then approached the Lei Di Puppet, "How can I save you?"

"There... there is a mechanism on my forehead. Just press it down..." the Lei Di Puppet said weakly.

Hearing this, Chu Qin looked at the Lei Di's forehead and carefully pressed down the gemstone embedded on it!

Instantly, along with a burst of mechanical sounds, the Lei Di Puppet's metallic shell fell off, revealing an old man with white hair, dressed in a white robe, covered with dense thunder pattern tattoos.

The old man looked quite aged and frail, and the thunder patterns seemed like tattoos, spreading across his entire body.

"Freed, I am finally freed!" The old man's speech carried an indisguisable excitement, "Damn Pixiu, I, at last, am liberated!"

Hearing this, Luo Yiyi and Shi Yao exchanged glances, while Chu Qin asked in surprise, "You, you are the Thunder Emperor? You're not a puppet!"

"Yes!" the Thunder Emperor replied weakly, "I was trapped by this metallic shell created by the Pixiu, which controlled my body and soul!"

Hearing this, Chu Qin and the two women simultaneously turned to look at the metallic shell.

"Fortunately, I am now finally free!" the Thunder Emperor continued, looking at Chu Qin, "Thank you, I truly did not expect that I would see the light of day again on the brink of death!"

A faint sigh issued from Chu Qin's heart. A once mighty emperor reduced to such a state, if it was not a tragedy, then what else could it be?

However, Chu Qin did not dwell too much on sentiment and asked, "Thunder Emperor, how were you captured by the Pixiu? You are a Supreme God; no matter how powerful the Pixiu is, it shouldn't be possible to turn you into a living puppet, right?"

To be turned into a puppet was worse than death. At such a time, Chu Qin believed that any Supreme God would choose to self-destruct.

"It's all my fault, I coveted the Pixiu Treasure. I entered the Pixiu Secret Realm and fell for the Pixiu's trick, mistakenly wearing this Undying Golden Robe!" the Thunder Emperor said with tremendous regret.

"So, you've been to Pixiu Secret Realm?" Chu Qin asked.

"Mm!" The Thunder Emperor nodded.

"Then do you know why the Pixiu Secret Realm can suppress Divine Power?" Chu Qin pressed the question further.

"It must be Emperor Zang's formation," the Thunder Emperor replied, "Emperor Zang is Changsun Shencang, the foremost formation master in the universe. You just need to break his formation."

"Senior, where is the formation's eye?" Luo Yiyi asked.

"I don't know!" The Thunder Emperor shook his head, "Here, save for those who have survived the second great tribulation of a Supreme God, it should be quite difficult to wield Divine Power."

Luo Yiyi and Shi Yao both showed slight disappointment.

Chu Qin, however, seemed unconcerned,

"You, what is your name?" the Thunder Emperor looked at Chu Qin.

"Chu Qin!" Chu Qin replied.

"Good, Fellow Chu Qin, thank you for saving me," the Thunder Emperor said, "I am about to return to the Void, take this as a gift."

The Thunder Emperor handed over two stones to Chu Qin.

"Supreme Divine Art!" The stone was identical to the one from Shi Tian Di; Chu Qin recognized it at once.

"Indeed, these are the two Supreme Divine Arts I obtained! One is the Thunder Emperor Holy Body, bestowed to me by the heavens and earth when I broke through to become a Supreme God. The other, Nine Suns Blazing Heaven, I found in the Cosmic Void. There's no use for me keeping it anymore!" the Thunder Emperor said.

Chu Qin took the two Supreme Divine Arts. Although he already possessed The Twelve Character Supreme Secret Technique, this secret method was not something his women could cultivate.

Moreover, it was the first time Chu Qin had heard of a physical cultivation Supreme Divine Art.

Seeing that Chu Qin took the two divine arts, the Thunder Emperor showed a hint of a smile.

"Fellow Chu Qin, could you do me a favor?" the Thunder Emperor continued.

"Sure, tell me!" Chu Qin nodded. Having received a favor, he was naturally obliged to help in return.

"If one day, you meet my daughter, tell her, I am sorry!" the Thunder Emperor replied with incredible weakness.

"Who is your daughter!" Chu Qin asked.

"Her name is Murong Qianxun!" the Thunder Emperor replied.

"Okay, I will remember!" Chu Qin nodded.

"Uh... Ah!" The Thunder Emperor's last breath seemed about to fade away as he looked at Chu Qin, "Although... although I don't know where Emperor Zang's formation's eye is, he buried the blueprint of the Pixiu Secret Realm formation underneath the grand hall in Pixiu City!"

After finishing his words, the Thunder Emperor closed his eyes and subsequently, his body dissipated, transforming into an object resembling an imperial seal.

"What is this?" Chu Qin asked with some confusion.

"Imperial Seal!" Luo Yiyi explained, "Imperial Seal, similar to the God King Crystal and Semi-Emperor Crystal, but unlike a crystal bead, it takes the shape of a seal, symbolizing power and authority, hence the name Imperial Seal! Such a real Imperial Seal should only belong to a Supreme God who has survived the second grand tribulation. It seems the Thunder Emperor was even more formidable than I thought."

"So, the Thunder Emperor has completely returned to the Void..." Chu Qin said, with a tinge of sorrow.
