Lake bottom.
As Jiang Ning unleashed his Divine Skills for water manipulation, the lake water beca tumultuous, instantly subduing the power of thunder and lightning released by the electric eel.
"Master!" a faint voice ca from behind him.
Jiang Ning couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
At the mont when the electric eel unleashed its lightning, the old turtle vanished with a swoosh from beneath his feet.
He even began to doubt how the old turtle had dared to fight the electric eel before, ending up with cuts and bruises all over.
At the sa ti,
water from around the electric eel swiftly gathered and pressed against its body, crazily pouring into it through its mouth.
The water here was already extrely dense and heavy due to the depth of the lake.
Now under Jiang Ning’s control, the water condensed, and its weight increased further.
The pressure from all directions made the electric eel’s bones begin to make a "clicking" noise, and its massive body started to contort.
Water poured into the eel’s body from its mouth rapidly filled every part of its body.
The enormous electric eel revealed a sense of despair in its eyes.
It turned, looking at the Thunder Tree next to it, feasting on the thunder and lightning, and toward the Hundred-year-old Thunder Fruit at the top of the tree, its eyes filling with imnse regret.
"If only I had ten more days!"
"In just ten more days, it would be a Hundred-year-old Spirit Fruit, enough to make my Dao progress by three hundred years. With five hundred years of Dao, how could I be powerless like I am now."
Deep regret filled the electric eel’s eyes.
Then, in less than a breath’s ti,
it completely lost its ability to resist, and its eyes gradually dimd...
Two more breaths passed.
Crack—Crack—
The continuous sound of bones breaking emanated from inside the body of the electric eel.
The once formidable giant electric eel was now fading away.
"Master... this..." the old turtle was suddenly dumbfounded.
Jiang Ning moved and arrived in front of the electric eel.
At this mont, the last hint of vitality of the giant electric eel had also completely disappeared, its eyes turning utterly lifeless.
Eliminating the electric eel had been in Jiang Ning’s plan all along.
And he wanted to verify a guess.
The next mont.
A flash of Cold Light appeared in his hand; a long knife glinting with a chilly radiance.
Then he opened his Heavenly Eye at the brow, assisted by his spiritual power.
The inner structure of the electric eel’s body appeared in detail before his eyes and in his mind.
After observing,
Jiang Ning thrust the long knife into the head of the electric eel, and as he exerted force, the corpse of the eel began to separate flesh from bone.
Like an expert butcher at work, Jiang Ning divided the huge head of the electric eel without damaging any of the bone structure.
A mont later.
"Just as I thought!"
Jiang Ning’s face brightened.
He swung the long knife in his hand, the blade’s gleam passing through the eel’s flesh as easily as cutting tofu.
Soon.
A piece of bone on the top of the eel’s head was revealed to Jiang Ning’s sight.
On that palm-sized bone, mysterious and complex patterns were densely packed.
Purple arcs of electricity occasionally flashed over the bone, and it contained a faint current of purple electricity within the patterns.
Seeing this bone, Jiang Ning directed a thread of spiritual power into the Suru Ring in his hand,
and the piece of tiger bone he had obtained from Hong Minghu appeared in his hand.
Upon comparison, Jiang Ning understood.
Although the patterns were different, their nature was clearly the sa.
"According to what Hong Minghu said,"
"certain extraordinary beings have special Divine Patterns bred within their bones, containing the rules of heaven and earth and ultimate truth."
"With these patterns, those extraordinary beings can wield terrifying powers of destruction."
"From this observation, the electric eel’s talent for controlling thunder and lightning should be due to these patterns within its bones that contain the rules of heaven and earth and ultimate truth."
"To call them Divine Patterns doesn’t seem quite vivid; they should be considered as a manifestation of Dao’s principles."
"These must be Dao patterns that manifest the rules of thunder!"
Jiang Ning muttered internally.
Then he removed that special piece of bone from the body of the electric eel, cleaned off the impurities with water, and his heart swelled with joy.
The patterns on the tiger bone Hong Minghu had given him, once mastered, could be put to his own use, a technique of applying Inner Breath at a skillful level.
By the sa logic, the skull of this electric eel should also have this effect.
Thinking of this,
he turned his gaze to the precious bone containing the thunder patterns.
After observing for two breaths, he closed his eyes.
At this mont,
the old turtle nearby imdiately looked up at Jiang Ning.
It had just witnessed how Jiang Ning easily subdued the Thunder Flood Dragon that had severely injured it before.
That Water Control Skill made it feel as if it was comparing a firefly to the bright moon when contrasted with Jiang Ning.
As a mber of the turtle family, after its transformation, it had mastered the talent of water manipulation.
It seed magical, but the effect was limited.
It could only control water within a ter or so around its body.
But with a re gesture from Jiang Ning, it felt all the surrounding lake water instantly co under Jiang Ning’s control.
It had also secretly tried, but no matter how hard it struggled, it could not gain control over even a trace of the lake water nearby, like an ant trying to shake a mighty tree.
At this mont, it realized what kind of existence its master was.
In an era without gods, he was the god who controlled the water.
On the other side,
Jiang Ning closed his eyes, briefly visualized at will, imagining a dragon, then visualized the thunder patterns materialize in his mind.
The next mont,
he opened his eyes.
With a raise of his hand.
Crackle and snap—
Thunder Light erupted before him.
Imdiately, his palm pushed forward.
He suddenly felt sothing in the air around him being drawn forth, and a Thunder Flood Dragon burst explosively from the palm of his hand.
