The thunder summoned by the Thunderbolt not only shattered the boulder but also created arge hole in the ground beneath it!<fnd426> Read full story at F?ndNovel</fnd426>


    This immense and somewhat frightening power thrilled Willie to the point where he nearly shouted to the heavens!


    He had never imagined that the Lightning Strike Wood was actually an artifact capable of calling forth heavenly thunder!


    Furthermore, the strength of this thunder wasparable to that of a heavy artillery shell!


    In contrast, the wooden sword gifted to him by the English Lord seemed weak byparison!<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Willie, filled with excitement, stood at the edge of the deep pit, gazing at the undamaged Jingleiling. He muttered to himself, “The might of this Lightning Strike Wood is truly astonishing! With it, even if I face an opponent stronger than myself in the future, I feel incredibly fortunate to havee to Aurous Hill this time!”


    Reflecting on this, Willie sighed, “The only downside is that this artifact consumes a significant amount of spiritual energy; casting it just once drained one-third of my aura. It looks like I’ll need to be cautious about using it in the future. The aura I lost can only be replenished once my task ispleted, and I really hope the Lord provides me with some medicine…” Afterward, he reluctantly stowed Jingleiling away, sighing, “The thrill of summoning heavenly thunder was indescribable! It felt as if I had merged with the universe! However, everything happened so fast that I didn’t have enough time to fully savor the experience. I wish I could do it again!”


    With that thought, he reached into his clothes again, cradling the Thunderbolt in his palm.


    Yet, after a moment of hesitation, he pulled it back out and murmured, “No, this artifact drains too much spiritual energy. If I use it again now, my strength will diminish too quickly, making it difficult toplete my task. I must hold off for now!”


    What Willie didn’t realize was that the reason casting the Thunderbolt required such a significant amount of spiritual energy was due to Charlie’s intention.


    Next, he took out the jade wrench once more, pondering, “What effect does this wrench have? It appears to be a passive artifact. Could the formation it triggered be akin to a talisman? If that’s the case, I can’t afford to experiment with it recklessly; losing its effect would be quite a setback.”


    At this point, he pulled his finger back and eximed with excitement, “Aurous Hill, the ancient capital of the six dynasties, truly lives up to its reputation! I’ve already acquired two magical artifacts on my very first day. If I wait a bit longer, who knows what else I might discover?”


    With renewed determination, Uncle Willie decided that for the next few days, he would hold off on any actions against the An family and would instead visit Antique Street tomorrow to seek out Zhang Ermao (Cade). He hoped to reconnect with his previous family and perhaps acquire more magical weapons!


    …


    Meanwhile, Charlie was still observing the dark clouds looming over Phoenix Mountain to the west, grappling with his thoughts. He was torn between whether to take a helicopter directly from Shangri-La Pce to Phoenix Mountain to confront his opponent.


    If he hurried there now, he might still find Earl Poqinghui on the mountain. Since he was now familiar with his appearance, he could confront him directly and eliminate him!


    However, Charlie quickly dismissed this thought.


    If he rushed over right away, there was no guarantee he would locate his target. Even if he did, engaging in a battle might not yield a decisive victory. A prolonged fight could attract unwanted attention from the outside world.


    Exposing his mastery of spiritual energy could cause ripples throughout society.


    Thus, after a moment of contemtion, Charlie decided to abandon the idea of heading to Phoenix Mountain immediately.


    He realized that he needed a more strategic approach to deal with this adversary!


    Yet, with his opponent now possessing the Thunderbolt, Charlie felt that his chances of defeating him in the future had slightly improved!
