Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 578 Perfect Lightning.

?

Shi Lang raised his head and saw a lightning streak as thick as a banyan tree trunk charging at him with unimaginable speed. He spat out a mouthful of blood and stood up from the ground. His body was in tatters, but his eyes were clear. He was not someone who would ever give up on things before he had finished using all that he had to give. 

He placed his left foot ahead and took out his spirit sword. Both his weapons had returned to his dantian. They could not withstand the impact of this bolt of lightning. The terran held the sword above his head, and the blade surface lit up with lightning bolts. He deeply breathed and said, "Lightning Dragon slashing the Heavens." 

Then, Shi Lang slashed down as the lightning bolt drew closer. The action looked similar to a simple slash, but the next moment, dirt around Shi Lang was stirred up by something, and clouds rose. The spirit energy that rushed out of his weapon also turned into a lightning dragon. 

However, the difference was that this particular dragon of lightning was slimmer than the heavenly lightning one. That was not all, and it was even more different in appearance. Shi Lang's dragon was five feet long and one foot thick. It looked like a worm in comparison to the heavenly lightning dragon. It looked even more fragile with the intricate scales and dragon whiskers. 

However, Shi Lang stood tall behind his attack. He would rather die with his head held high than bow to anyone. This was his initial thought, a life without regret. The two dragons collided, and the people frowning and worrying if Shi Lang would survive were shocked. The two dragons stood head-to-head in the collision, making the void tremble. 

Shi Lang was sliding back on the ground against the power of the two attacks. He was leaving a trail on the ground with his arms crossed before his face. The void was trembling, and it was making Shi Lang shiver. It was like an earthquake inside his body because he was close to the collision. 

After a minute, the collision turned into an explosion, and Shi Lang was flung over from the impact like a rag doll. He bounced off the ground more than twelve times before his body was plastered to the wall of the dragon mountain. 

He coughed up blood and some flesh. The aftermath of the attack rattled his internal organs. It was a surprise for even himself that he managed to survive that blast. He slid down the wall and looked at the sky. The dark clouds had yet to fade away, and a golden light flickered between the clouds. 

Shi Lang could not move from his position. He sighed as he looked at the sky. He was not willing. He did not wish to perish like this. Thinking about this, the terran sensed the lightning energy coursing through his cells. 

To put up the final struggle, he channeled the energy around his body as fast as he could, and his body, surprisingly, began to heal under the effect of spiritual energy. This was the way spiritual energy worked. Shi Lang had highly volatile lightning energy because it was excessively vital. 

Previously, his body could not absorb the nutrition that this attribute brought to the limit. Now, he was injured to the point where death seemed a luxury, and his body began absorbing everything it could to sustain itself. Shi Lang was a Terran, and he manipulated the situation to temper his body to another level. 

His cells regenerated, and his muscles reformed in a blink. His bones were cleared of all the impurities and reconnected once again. The golden lightning flickered through the clouds and shot toward Shi Lang. 

The Terran jumped to his feet, condensed a lightning glove around his fist, and said, "Lightning King Fist." 

The intention behind the fist was simple: he was the king of lightning, and he wished to destroy everything that stood in his way. It was not a technique or anything else but a straight-off power punch. 

The punch collided with the golden lightning, and a sharp whistle echoed. Lei Wang squinted his eyes and exclaimed, "This guy is using his fist as a sword?" 

The two other elders were shocked. They could not contradict Lei Wang because this man was the best among them regarding sword cultivation. Lady Xue asked, "Yun, was he like this in the secret realm, too?" 

Yun Xue nodded with clear eyes and said, "Shi Lang does not pretend to be something he isn't and if he is something that he is hiding. He is the bluntest man you will ever meet, Sect Master." 

The lady was shocked, and only now did she notice the oddity of this young girl. She frowned and asked, "Yun, did he seduce you?" 

Yun Xue was flushed and embarrassingly shook her head and said, "He did not seduce me. It was me. He is just that awesome. However, he told me he has a wife and a daughter, so he would not accept me." 

Lady Xue was left speechless by her words. The lady sighed and said, "Fine, young people can be left to your measures." 

The sharp whistle gradually silenced, and then the golden lightning burrowed inside Shi Lang's body. The terran coughed blood and fell to the ground like a corpse. Yun Xue widened her eyes. She leaned forward, but Lady Xue held her arm and pulled her back. 

The tribulation had not yet ended, or to be precise, the process had not ended. They could only watch everything unfold from the side. After a few minutes, the thunderclouds receded, and a golden cocoon covered Shi Lang's body. The cocoon flew up into the void and levitated. The people could see Shi Lang lying inside in a fetal position.

The golden lightning was running through his body akin to a needle. This was something that none of the people knew about. Suddenly, a voice sounded in the minds of all the people, "Hmmm, to think this kid surpassed me and stepped into the Lord Realm with perfect lightning." 

Everyone looked up and found a phantom condensed out of lightning. The two youngsters did not know who this person was, nor did the two sect masters. However, Lei Wang could not help but shiver and kneel to the ground before kowtowing and said, "Greetings Founder." 

Lightning Shura nodded and said, "The immortal realm is about to change." 

Then, the phantom vanished from the void, and the surroundings returned to the calm. Lie Wang woke up from his stupor and said, "Perfect Lightning, do you guys know what that means?" 

The people shook their heads, and Lei Wang said, "In terms of quality, if Shi Lang is to face any genius from the central plains and face off against a person with a higher realm, for example, Peak Immortal Lord, he will be able to hold his ground. His perfect golden lightning will give him superior attack power, and he will also have more true spirit in his body." 

Bo Qingtan sighed and said, "This guy is getting even stronger as a monster. I am going back to the sect to consolidate and practice more. Sect Master, you can discuss the palace issues with him, and here, keep these weapons with you and see what you think is right." 

That said, Bo Qigntan dumped the earth-level spirit swords on the ground and then left after greeting everyone. He did not care about the shock everyone had. He just left the place in a blink. 

Lei Wang quickly picked up all the swords and stored them in his space ring. Yun Xue rolled her eyes and said, "We all have a share in these weapons." 

As the three people gathered her to ask more, the cocoon broke, and a golden light shot from Shi Lang's body pierced the clouds. The terran calmly landed on the ground and stood up, his body crackling. He looked at himself and felt that his body was filled with ultimate energy. 

He looked around and found that now he could see further, and his senses had heightened a bit more than usual. He took a deep breath before manipulating his body to calm down and landed on the ground. At this time, he noticed a shining golden armor on his body. It was not a complete armor, but a pauldron of spirit energy covering his shoulders each, a pair of leg guards, gauntlets, and bracers. 

He was confused and tried to channel lightning from his dantian and was surprised. He looked inside himself and found it shocking. The lightning in his body had turned golden. He instinctively punched the fist, and the impact left a twenty-meter-wide crater on the ground. He exclaimed, "Fuck!"

He looked at the three sect masters and said, "Ummm, Sect Master Ling, can you guide me." 

Sect Master Ling laughed loudly and said, "I thought you would never ask me."
