However, later, when they saw the terrifying momentum of the dark clouds, it still caused a small stir.

It was really quite intimidating, as if the whole sky were pressing down.

If someone were to say there were actually a hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals here, it probably wouldn't seem so absurd, considering the formidable presence of the thunderclouds.

"Woo woo woo."

The sky was filled with the piercing sound of air raid sirens.

Everyone received several messages at the same time, indicating that this thunderstorm would be severe, and instructing all residents to immediately take shelter indoors.

"Oh my! How scary! Guys, you wouldn't believe what's happening here; the clouds in the sky are absolutely terrifying. The government even sent messages telling us to hide indoors. This is the first time I've encountered such a situation."

Someone began to share the situation online with friends in other regions.

Countless people took out their phones and recorded the weather outside.

"It's coming! It's coming! Spiritual Energy Recovery is coming! What did I say? What did I say!? Isn't it Spiritual Energy Recovery!? Look! This is a sign of Spiritual Energy Recovery officially starting!"

Some people posted on online forums, which were sections dedicated to deep discussions about the Extraordinary World.

This group inherently belonged to those who firmly believed in its existence.

Now, after witnessing this unusual sight, they couldn't help but start celebrating.

"Guys, I've heard that this dark cloud is only over five cities; it's not nationwide, so this is our opportunity!"

"I think everyone shouldn't hide indoors! Maybe this is the first wave of benefits from Spiritual Energy Recovery; we should hurry to the rooftop, and perhaps we'll awaken superpowers or something!"

"You're crazy, aren't you? Have you seen the thunderclouds outside? You're going to the rooftop under these circumstances; do you really not know what death means?"

"You don't understand, there's a saying: 'Seek wealth amid danger.' If you want to gain Extraordinary Power without taking even a bit of risk, how could that be possible?"

"Alright, enough talk, I'm already on the rooftop. Maybe soon Spirit Rain will fall, and only those touched by it can awaken superpowers. You in the house may miss the chance, don't cry later!"

"I'm here too, guys; I can't give up on this opportunity. My future prosperity depends on it!"

"..."

Such dialogues occurred in various forums.

Many people, holding the mentality of gambling, all headed to the rooftops of their buildings.

The Abnormality Department also noticed this situation, and Hu Hu immediately started cursing angrily.

"These idiots! Have novels made their brains foolish!? They dare to run to higher ground under such thunderclouds! Do they really have a death wish!?"

He found it hard to understand the mindset of these young people now.

Even if there was any talk of the Transcendent, climbing the rooftop under such circumstances was truly courting death.

Each really thinks of themselves as the protagonist of a novel.

"Immediately send messages telling everyone to get indoors! Don't linger on rooftops, under trees, or similar places! Inform them of the danger of these thunderclouds and not to be deceived by false information! Anyone spreading dangerous deceitful rhetoric will be held legally responsible!"

Hu Hu quickly instructed the intelligence officer next to him, hoping to reel those reckless individuals back.

The intelligence officer, hearing this, said with a bitter face:

"Boss, we've just said all this, but these people truly are crazy. There's still someone heading to higher ground, absolutely fearless of death!"

Hu Hu's face darkened even more.

...

It has been about ten minutes from when the Purple Cloud Divine Sword showed signs of trouble until now.

The dark clouds are almost turning substantial, with the faint sight of purple lightning traversing within, as if it could pour down from the sky at any moment.

The surrounding cities are already showing such sights; the scene at Thunder Peak, at the center of the event, is even more terrifying.

Ye Yunxiu only felt that the air around him seemed to be solidifying.

The terrifying dark clouds overhead looked as if they might crash down at any time, filling everyone with fear just by looking.

"It's the Thunder Heart! I know it! It's the Thunder Heart!!"

Beside him, Aogu suddenly shouted loudly.

Zhang Xiaoman looked over and asked:

"The Thunder Heart, what's going on?"

Aogu swallowed hard and said:

"The attribute of the Purple Cloud Divine Sword is thunder, and within Thunder Peak, there's a Thunder Heart buried! It must have absorbed the energy of the Thunder Heart, and the seal has been unlocked!!"

"I didn't expect at first that the Thunder Heart wasn't taken by Wu Qi, and it fused with the mountain into this world."

"That's the energy source of our entire clan, the core of the Thunderbolt Furnace, also the most precious wealth left to us by the Lord of Thunder God..."

Aogu said a lot in one breath.

However, whether due to over-excitement, it gave a somewhat incoherent impression.

But Zhang Xiaoman still understood what he meant.

In other words, the cause of all this is the Thunder Heart within the mountain.

The Purple Cloud Divine Sword was originally in a sealed state, accidentally absorbing the core of the Thunderbolt Furnace, successfully breaking the seal.

"Boom!!!"

At this moment, the sky suddenly emitted a deafening explosion.

The thunder that had accumulated for so long finally started to burst, and countless purple beams of light filled the sky.

"Purple lightning! This... how is it possible... could it really be the Purple Cloud Divine Thunder!?"

In his divine thought, the Green Little Dragon's face was once again shocked, mouth wide open.

"No no no... something's wrong with the aura... the aura's wrong... if it were truly the Purple Cloud Divine Thunder, it definitely wouldn't have such a weak presence..."

It closed its mouth again, trying hard to sense what's happening in the sky.

"Be careful! The thunder is about to burst!"

Zhang Xiaoman warned.

He raised his arms, and several Spirit Stones shot in all directions, immediately causing a brilliant light to rise under everyone's feet.

This light was a complex formation pattern, and without a doubt, everyone was currently enveloped in a protective formation.

"Boom!!!"

The next moment, lightning erupted.

Boundless purple lightning instantly filled the sky, making the whole world seem dyed purple.

Within a hundred kilometers radius, everyone witnessed this apocalyptic sight.

Those who ran to rooftops seeking opportunity now instinctively felt a tinge of regret.

Such vast heavenly power, running up here like this, really isn't seeking death?

Many people finally came to their senses at this moment, starting to run frantically toward stairwells.

Zhang Xiaoman also felt immense pressure.

Despite his retreat with two others quite a distance back, under this terrifying lightning, he still felt very uncertain.

However, in this extremely tense moment, the subsequent events caused everyone watching the sky to drop their jaws.

The purple lightning didn't fall downward as expected but instead angled towards one direction - Thunder Peak.

The 2000-meter-high peak seemed like a massive lightning rod, absorbing all purple lightning within the thunderclouds.

Thunderbolts within hundreds of kilometers all converged at one point.

Such a scene will be unforgettable for everyone who witnessed it.

Seeing this spectacle, a phrase suddenly sprang to Zhang Xiaoman's mind.

"Tribulation! It's the Purple Cloud Divine Sword! Could it be... it's undergoing tribulation!?"

Almost instantly, he understood the meaning of the sight before him.

Though never seen firsthand, the Tianyuan Sect's Book Collection Building had records.

Upon the birth of powerful Magic Treasure, it might attract heavenly lightning tribulation to be baptized and tempered by lightning.

If it could endure, the Magic Treasure would naturally take form, its quality greatly enhanced.

And the scene before seems just like what's recorded in the books.
