Harness Cultivator

Chapter 42 - Climbing

Lightning started surrounding the mountain's peak as it had a clear target on its mind.

The target was none other than Lee Tao who had unintentionally provoked it.

"Fuck you thunder, you can suck my cock." Lee Tao showed the middle finger at the lightning once again.

He wasn't scared anymore now that he had Xiao Chu casting a shield for him.

With Xiao Chu- this overpowering item that shouldn't belong in the First Heaven by his side, Lee Tao was inevitable.

Suddenly, the lightning started striking at Lee Tao as it threatened to zap him into a charcoal.

"Tsk, just some mini lightning and you want to burn this daddy? Dream on!" Lee Tao sneered as he watched the lightning coming straight at him.

With a calm demeanor, Lee Tao stood still, almost like a true Immortal overseeing everything without care.

BAM!

The lightning collided with Lee Tao- or so the lightning had thought because Xiao Chu's barrier had easily deflected the lightning strike.

Lee Tao grinned evilly as he yawned slightly.

"Did some crappy lightning come before? I felt nothing at all." He taunted.

The lightning was enraged as it sent a barrage of lightning strikes at Lee Tao.

Time slowly passed by with sparks flying everywhere yet Lee Tao remained unharmed.

"Sigh, you can stop expressing your love to me." Lee Tao sighed softly as he shook his head.

"You're just not my type so please, kindly fuck off back to your trash formation."

As the taunting continued, the lightning turned more and more intense as it wished to zap Lee Tao into crisp.

Alas, it was a futile effort since Xiao Chu's prowess is many times stronger than the lightning itself.

Thus, Lee Tao remained safe and sound despite the horrifying lightning in the sky.

"Heavens… just how is Lee Tao deflecting these?" Tang Lingling mumbled on the sideline with a dumbfounded expression.

The lightning didn't even bother to strike against Tang Lingling so she didn't need to cast any barriers to protect herself.

However, it was also due to this that she managed to witness Lee Tao doing something completely unimaginable. Tang Lingling swallowed some of her saliva nervously as she glanced at Lee Tao.

'Madam Liu… I think you underestimated your son. He's not a dragon amongst men, he's a god.' Tang Lingling exclaimed inwardly.

Meanwhile, Lee Tao started laying down on the ground and began playing around with his profound qi.

"Hmm, what should I draw?" Lee Tao muttered as he emitted the profound qi in his fingertip and began scribbling in the air.

Sometime later, the lightning started to slow down and began to retreat.

It clearly understood that it wasn't a match for Lee Tao and that it couldn't harm a single hair of his.

Lee Tao smirked when he saw the lightning retreat back to the formation and the dark sky turned crystal clear again.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a loser lightning." Lee Tao taunted one last time as he stood up and stared at Tang Lingling.

"Tang Lingling, what you just saw is what a cultivator should do. You never follow the rules and you should always break them."

"Yes Young Master, this servant understands."

Lee Tao nodded his head.

"Since you understand me, then what are you waiting for?" Lee Tao asked. "Carry me up as you will be the one climbing."

"W-What?" Tang Lingling raised an eyebrow.

'How am I going to carry you upward with this high mountain and steep steps?' Tang Lingling cried inwardly.

"Stop wasting time already." Lee Tao scolded harshly.

"Although the lightning couldn't harm me, the flying restriction is still there. With my current ability, it's impossible to nullify it unless I'm at the peak of the mountain."

Tang Lingling was rendered speechless.

As a man, not only did Lee Tao refuse to work hard, he also wished to have a woman to carry him up to a high mountain peak.

"Then please excuse this servant," Tang Lingling said as she lifted Lee Tao up into her arms.

Lee Tao wrapped one of his arms around her neck as he smiled happily. "Alright, onward to the crappy mountain peak."

Tang Lingling smiled bitterly as she slowly took the first step of the mountain.

After 100 steps or so, Lee Tao was a bit irritated by her slow movement.

"We still have so many steps ahead and you only made 100 steps." Lee Tao scolded. "Are you trying to make us stay here for the night?"

"Y-Young Master, this servant is trying her best already but the steps seem to become harder by the minutes." Tang Lingling said with her breathing turning difficult.

Lee Tao suddenly realized why she was struggling hard in climbing the mountain despite having a good cultivation base.

"Ahh, you must have been affected by the gravity pressure here." Lee Tao said.

Since he was being carried and did not have to walk ahead, the gravity pressure didn't affect him in any way.

Thus, he felt completely normal whereas Tang Lingling had to face the burden of two people.

Tang Lingling was sweating a lot and Lee Tao could feel his clothes were about to be drenched in her sweat.

"Put me down, Tang Lingling." Lee Tao quickly said as he got off.

Once Lee Tao landed on his feet, he realized the gravity pressure was more intense than he had originally thought.

"A flying restriction and now a gravity pressure…" Lee Tao mumbled softly as he wondered what secret could the pseudo-Immortal be hiding.

Meanwhile, Tang Lingling suddenly collapsed to the ground as she was exhausted.

Her complexion was pale and her breathing was unsteady.

Lee Tao glanced at her for a moment before retrieving a pill. "Here, consume this pill and recover your strength."

Tang Lingling caught the pill in her hand and consumed it rapidly.

"What is that pill, Young Master?" Tang Lingling asked when she felt her strength recovering rapidly.

It didn't take another second before she returned to her original strength.

Lee Tao shrugged his shoulders.

"Just some average recovery pill."
