The girl's identity was self-evident; her tiny body exuded the terrifying aura of a six-star Dou Sheng!
Furthermore, Chen Guan could sense that her aura was constantly growing, indicating she hadn't yet fully recovered. The
only other person who met this requirement was the Nine Profound Golden Thunder, which had just successfully gathered its spirit.
Treating her like a newly hatched chick, Chen Guan could understand her closeness.
But that name…
his mouth twitched slightly.
"No, change it."
"But I think calling me mother is the most comfortable and intimate. Why can't I?" The girl's face was filled with confusion, completely unaware of the implications of the title.
"You can call me teacher, or brother, or even daddy, but not mother." She
had to change her words, no room for negotiation.
He had a tail in front of him; how could he be called mother?
The girl's face fell slightly, as if she were struggling with her feelings.
"No rush. Let's deal with the Dan Lei first."
Chen Guan rubbed her adorable bun and looked up at the sky.
The girl's hesitation instantly faded, and she happily agreed.
"Daddy, just watch me, I'm amazing!"
With a cheerful laugh, she moved, a flash of golden lightning streaking across the sky. Instantly transforming back into her true form, she coiled and spiraled, plunging directly into the terrifying black cloud.
"Roar!"
A long, drawn-out dragon roar echoed from the dark clouds. Suddenly, the pitch-black sky rippled and trembled like waves. Flickering streaks of black magic lightning, before they could even land, uncontrollably swooped towards the free-roaming golden thunder dragon.
The black magic lightning, so fearsome in the outside world, was now like spring rain and sweet dew. Far from threatening the golden dragon, it actually nourished it.
The king of thunder, a dimensional strike!
As the golden thunder dragon tormented, brilliant golden rays occasionally shot forth from the deep black clouds. The pill thunder that was supposed to fall was killed before its mission was accomplished...
Finally, the dark clouds dissipated.
At this moment, streams of black and golden lightning energy poured down from the sky, pouring into Chen Guan's Thunder Tribulation Pill.
Pill rain fell, and the Mysterious Pill emerged!
Under the influence of this lightning energy, the already formed Thunder Tribulation Pill's aura rose again. The vague dragon silhouette hovering above it became increasingly visible, dotted with golden light. At
first glance, it looked like a miniature Nine Profound Golden Thunder Dragon that had fallen into a mud pit and had just been fished out.
This Thunder Tribulation Pill had undoubtedly reached the pinnacle of a Ninth-grade Mysterious Pill, even showing signs of reaching the Ninth-grade Golden Pill.
Looking at this greatest pill of his life, Chen Guan silently lamented its pity.
This alchemy session gave Chen Guan a deeper understanding of his own soul power.
If we were to further categorize the levels from Heavenly Realm Great Perfection to the Emperor Realm, from 0 to 100, he'd be around 70. He'd made considerable progress, but still some distance from the Emperor Realm.
He'd already prepared a sufficient supply of ingredients for this Thunder Tribulation Pill. If Chen Guan also possessed an Emperor Realm soul, a ninth-grade Golden Elixir would be no problem!
He shook his head slightly, dismissing the unfounded thought.
"Boom!"
Endless light erupted, and a terrifying wave of energy suddenly erupted from the Fire Cauldron. The powerful impact force actually broke through the Fire Cauldron's barrier, escaping into the distance at a speed unseen by the naked eye.
With such power, even an ordinary Dou Sheng would likely lose their lives if caught in it.
"Daddy!"
A desperate cry echoed from the sky, and the next moment, the girl's figure appeared beside him, her delicate white hand pointing at the escaping golden light with an eager expression.
Chen Guan laughed heartily. "Don't worry, I won't make such a foolish mistake."
As he finished speaking, the golden light suddenly paused in mid-air, then began to leap up and down, unable to break free, as if trapped in an invisible cage.
Chen Guan took the girl by the hand, and with a flicker of golden light, he approached.
The beast transformed from the Thunder Tribulation Pill bore a striking resemblance to the dragon shadow from earlier. Its body shimmered with golden lightning, streaked with fine arcs of electricity, its eyes brimming with spirituality.
Not giving it a chance to pray or express any other emotions, Chen Guan concluded it was merely a pill.
His internal Dou Qi surged, instantly connecting heaven and earth. His mighty hand channeled the vast energies
of heaven and earth to suppress the spiritual prison. This Thunder Tribulation Pill was considered the pinnacle of the ninth-grade Profound Pills, its power rivaling that of a four- or five-star Dou Sheng. However, this newly born creature, possessing immense power but only rudimentary application, was no match for Chen Guan.
"Woo..."
With a mournful wail, the golden dragon disintegrated and exploded, transforming into arcs of lightning. The energy quickly converged into a single point, condensing into a round pill.
Chen Guan had to swallow this Thunder Tribulation Pill; there was no need to cultivate it. Excessive communication would only affect his state of mind.
"Daddy, can I eat it?"

The girl blinked her large eyes, speaking her mind freely, pure as a blank sheet of paper.
She sensed that if she could swallow the Thunder Tribulation Pill, she would surely be able to return to peak form, saving considerable time.
Chen Guan decisively shook his head, "No, that's a waste. It takes time for me to digest it. You should recover deep within the Thunder Pool first. By the time I'm done here, you should be almost back to peak form."
The girl was Nine Profound Golden Thunder, free from energy concerns within this void Thunder Pool, and restoring to Seven-Star Dou Sheng status was easy.
On the other hand, without the Thunder Tribulation Pill, Chen Guan would have to expend immense energy to achieve the Seven-Star Dou Sheng breakthrough.
"Alright, Daddy, I'm going in to play then."
"Well, after I'm done digesting it, I'll take you outside to see this wonderful world."
"Hmmmm."
Chen Guan released his hand, and the girl, emanating a flash of lightning, darted into the depths of the Thunder Pool, transforming back into her original form to swim and play within it, carefree and joyful.
This was her way of recovery, requiring no effort at all, nourished by an endless supply of energy.
Chen Guan looked away enviously, unfazed by any concern for her safety.
This was her home turf!
Sitting cross-legged in mid-air, he circulated his Dou Qi for several cycles before taking a deep breath.
"How much improvement I can achieve this time depends on you."
With anticipation, he unhesitatingly pressed the pill into his mouth.
"Boom!"
As the Thunder Tribulation Pill entered his stomach, a surge of unparalleled energy erupted from Chen Guan's body, spreading like ripples. Within a radius of several thousand feet, the relentless explosions of black demonic thunder instantly dissipated, creating a vast forbidden zone.
"Sizzle!"
Brilliant golden lightning continuously emerged from Chen Guan's body, flickering across his body, and the low rumble of thunder could be heard.
Enveloped in this golden aura, Chen Guan appeared as if cast from gold. From a distance, he looked as prominent as the sun in a pool of empty thunder.
While the surface of his body was surging, Chen Guan's interior was even more ferocious. Terrorizing thunderous forces, like raging dragons, raged through his limbs and bones. However, no matter how they charged, they were met by an incredibly strong, invisible barrier, intercepting and sending them back.
"Xiao Wu!"
A pale-green flame roared, its all-purifying power and devouring power erupting simultaneously. He joined the "battlefield" with the most brutal force, surrounding and devouring the raging dragons that refused to submit. After refining it, it transformed into a surge of pure Dou Qi, which merged into Chen Guan's body.
The Dou Qi grew at an incredible rate, and Chen Guan's realm rapidly approached six stars from the late five-star Dou Sheng realm.
Within the vast thunder pool, golden light shimmered. Within that golden light, Chen Guan's eyes were closed, his face solemn. As his chest rose and fell, the energy of heaven and earth also rippled, constantly converging.
Ebb and flow, like a tide!
It was as if the heavens and earth were caught in some strange rhythm.
About half an hour passed, and a faint sensation emanated from Chen Guan's body, as if something had broken through. His aura surged wildly, and the energy surged towards him with unparalleled force, like a calm sea suddenly surging with raging waves.
Day after day...
like a fleeting moment, half a month had passed in the blink of an eye.
The surging energy surge seemed to lose its momentum, gradually settling into a state of calm.
At the same time, the figure sitting cross-legged slowly opened his eyes. A pervasive golden light converged within him, and within his deep pupils, a golden dragon seemed to surge.
Feeling the terrifying power within him, nearly multiplied by a factor of ten, Chen Guan felt a surge of righteousness rising from within him, as if he had broken free from some shackle. The world before his eyes widened.
Each star, each level. Whether it was strength or state of mind, everything was completely different now!
At this moment, a single breath, a single glance, transformed into thunder, enough to annihilate even ordinary Dou Shengs! From
the early stages of the Seven Stars realm, he had already reached the highest level!
Chen Guan stood up with a flick of his sleeves, his eyes fixed on the depths of the void thunder pool. It seemed as if nine-mysterious golden thunder flashed violently, followed by a scorching pink-green flame. Wherever he looked, he traced the source.
"Daddy, are you leaving?"
Sensing his gaze, the girl appeared out of thin air.
Her aura was that she had reached the late stage of the six-star Dou Sheng, just one step away from the peak.
"Well, it's time to go out."
The endless black magic thunder automatically retreated. The big and the small, hand in hand, their backs were getting farther and farther away.
In the dim light, he seemed to hear the girl's joyful voice.
"Daddy, you are so strong now, as powerful as I was before."
