Punishment Lightning realized he had struck the wrong person and frantically tried to pull back his power.
But the lightning had already been unleashed; spilled water cannot be gathered back.
The moment he forcefully withdrew his power, the backlash rushed back. Punishment Lightning was the first to be blasted, crackling and trembling as stray lightning sparked everywhere...
“Crack, pop... pop, crack...”
The remaining lightning power still slammed violently into Ye Fan.
His entire body was instantly swallowed by electric light, with thick smoke billowing.
The dust and smoke dispersed.
Ye Fan was half-kneeling on the ground, his body charred black, his hair standing completely on end.
His clothes were also blasted into tatters, hanging stubbornly on his body.
At the critical moment, Ye Fan had still used a protective magical artifact.
In addition, he had cast a spiritual energy shield on himself.
He felt that dying once was a bit too costly, so it was better to stay alive.
Seeing that Ye Fan wasn't struck to death, Punishment Lightning couldn't help but sigh in relief.
Then, he pretended like nothing had happened.
He quickly withdrew his pressure and vanished in an instant.
When Punishment Lightning arrived earlier, all the guards had run away in fear.
Seeing Punishment Lightning disappear, the group of them returned once again.
Looking at Nine Thousand Years' current lightning-blasted appearance, the guards' lips twitched. This was a rather miserable strike!
Could it be that he had done too many bad things?
The guard captain asked warily:
“Nine Thousand Years, are you alright?”
“I'm fine...”
Hearing his own shrill, high-pitched voice, Ye Fan's already blackened face became even darker.
“Clean this up.”
With that, Ye Fan's figure flashed, and he disappeared from the spot.
He needed to find a place to be quiet and soothe his wounded soul...
To give himself a little pep talk, or else he feared his Dao Heart would shatter.
Hearing Ye Fan's words, the guards couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief:
Thank goodness, he was blasted into a daze and didn't take his anger out on them...
...
After Punishment Lightning left, Tribulation Lightning enjoyed a rare moment of peace.
“Holy crap... a mistake was made...”
Tribulation Lightning's gaze suddenly swept across the mission board, and he couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
Comparing the two levels again, one was "strike them to death," and the other was "a mild lesson."
One was the heaviest, the other the lightest...
Punishment Lightning should be able to realize it, right?
Just then, Punishment Lightning returned, looking thoroughly deflated.
“Little Puny, did you strike them?”
Punishment Lightning nodded gloomily:
“I did!”
Hearing this, Tribulation Lightning couldn't help but gasp in shock.
If he actually struck someone to death, there would be punishment when the Heavenly Dao woke up.
If the impact was huge, he might even be dispersed...
“But he didn't die...”
Punishment Lightning muttered gloomily.
He just wanted to use his official position to get some revenge. Why was he so unlucky?
Almost striking the wrong person... why was everything so hard?
Hearing that Punishment Lightning hadn't struck anyone to death, Tribulation Lightning also let out a sigh of relief.
It was good that he hadn't killed anyone. Although Little Puny wasn't the brightest, they had been together for so long.
He would still be a bit sad to see him go. If Punishment Lightning were dispersed...
What if a smart one came next and he couldn't bully them anymore?
“Little Puny, you still have another mission...”
Hearing Tribulation Lightning's reminder, Punishment Lightning instantly perked up.
He had a feeling that this time, it must be that damned human.
Immediately, he set off once again, full of confidence.
This time, he would definitely avenge his grudge and wash away his past humiliation.
“Eldest Senior Brother! There's nothing...”
Huang Tianbao controlled the Hundred Million Soul Banner and searched the surroundings once more.
Still, he couldn't find Ye Fan's soul.
Lu Ming was also puzzled. Was Huang Tianbao too slow?
Had the soul already dissipated? Or did it escape?
Forget it, they should quickly go back and find Grandfather!
But just then, a sudden explosion echoed from the horizon.
Ink-black dark clouds churned and gathered at a visible speed, instantly blanketing the entire sky.
“Holy crap... why are you striking me again!”
Seeing this familiar scene, Lu Ming couldn't help but cry out.
He didn't seem to have done anything bad, so why was he being targeted and struck so relentlessly?
The problem was that his Grandfather was lost, and there was no one to take the lightning for him!
At least wait a bit! Wait until I find Grandfather before you strike!
Huang Tianbao looking at the sky, his face also turned pale.
Why did this tribulation lightning always strike Eldest Senior Brother?
He had already decided that if Eldest Senior Brother couldn't handle it, he would kneel, kowtow, and call him “Daddy”...
He would shout this damned Punishment Lightning to death. Did it really think they were easy targets?
Immediately, without waiting for Lu Ming's warning, Huang Tianbao turned and fled, observing the scene from a short distance away.
“Crack!”
First, a pale flash of lightning tore through the clouds.
Like a sharp giant blade, it sliced the sky in half, followed closely by a deafening roll of thunder.
Punishment Lightning sneered at Lu Ming below. Hmph... this time, he had a clear look.
It was indeed this damned kid.
Don't think he wouldn't recognize those shoes just because he changed into a monkey suit.
Using his lightning power to cultivate, huh? Fleecing him, huh?
This time, he would let him cultivate and fleece to his heart's content...
Oh right, he also had to watch out for the opponent's corpse that could block the lightning tribulation.
This time, he would do a massive spread. Let's see how you block it now!
Next, Lu Ming saw countless pillars of lightning as thick as arms, carrying the aura of destruction, crashing down.
“Perfect timing!”
Seeing this, Lu Ming couldn't help but shout.
Hearing Lu Ming's shout, Punishment Lightning couldn't help but feel smug.
I know you're going to bring out that corpse again.
But this time, I've scattered it so much. Let's see how much of it you can block!
“Whoosh, whoosh...”
Just then, he saw Lu Ming take out from his storage bag...
Throwing out fifty-meter-long poles one after another, driving them straight into the ground around him.
“What on earth is that?”
While Punishment Lightning was still curious, he suddenly found himself unable to control his own body.
He couldn't help but want to strike toward those long poles.
Punishment Lightning was completely bewildered. Can anyone tell me what is happening?
Why can't I control myself?
“Crack, pop... pop, crack...”
Then, the net of lightning filling the sky seemed to be violently yanked aside by an invisible giant hand, crashing entirely toward those dozens of long poles!
“Boom...”
Thunder as thick as arms slammed onto the long poles as if it cost nothing, exploding into a mass of ear-splitting roars.
Punishment Lightning only felt his power leaking out uncontrollably. The harder he struck, the faster it drained. His entire lightning spirit body was trembling and twisting violently.
“No... my lightning power!!”
He tried desperately to pull back his power, but the lightning seemed to have completely rebelled.
It was not under his control at all, crackling and booming as it all struck the long poles.
Punishment Lightning was completely dumbfounded. He was shocked, furious, and aggrieved.
His lightning body rapidly turned faint.
Seeing this, Huang Tianbao, who had already knelt down, stood up again and patted the dust off his clothes.
He was all prepared to shout “Daddy,” but he hadn't expected Eldest Senior Brother to come up with such a method to deal with it.
“Whoosh, whoosh...”
Diao San and the others were once again released by Lu Ming.
“Hurry up, absorb the lightning power...”
Although Diao San and his crew didn't know why Lu Ming was being struck by lightning again...
it didn't stop them from quickly running their techniques to absorb the lightning power for cultivation.
