Chapter 492: Chapter 241 Swallowing the Power of Heaven and Earth (Request for Monthly Pass)
Rolling dark clouds envelop the city, like a massive black curtain engulfing Mason.
Between heaven and earth, raging winds howl while thunder booms within the clouds, the sound magnificent and powerful.
Five days had passed since Mathilda Ward woke up, and the weather forecast had warned that there would be thunderstorms and typhoons today.
At the edge of the rooftop on the 24th floor of the hotel, Damon Lopes stood with his hands behind his back, clad in a Daoist robe. His long hair danced wildly in the raging wind, giving him an air of casual transcendence.
Just then, a dazzling light shone from within the clouds, and thousands of meters long purple thunder light descended like a thunder dragon exuding a destructive aura.
Boom!
Only then did the thunderous explosion that shook heaven and earth reverberate.
The lightning that struck Damon Lopes exploded thereafter, crackling into countless serpentine arcs across the ground, and a burnt stench filled the air within a tens of meters range where the ‘air’ had been pierced through.
Under the striking force of this natural thunder, Damon’s aura surged powerfully, his entire being emitting a dazzling light, as if he were a giant light bulb.
“Comfortable, ah! It’s been so long since I’ve encountered weather powerful enough to ‘feed’ me,” he said.
As he spoke, Damon Lopes stretched out his hand towards the sky, and instantly the dark clouds trembled. Another even more ferocious bolt of lightning descended and struck him, followed by a third…
Boom Boom Boom!!
Terrifying bolts of lightning continued to fall, and the dazzling light they emitted lit up the surrounding area of the hotel.
The deafening roars drew the attention of the hotel staff and members of the concert group, who all ran to the windows to look out.
In addition, hidden’ journalists around the hotel also picked up their video cameras and began snapping pictures of the rooftop continuously.
Noticing this, Damon Lopes’ gaze shifted slightly. Suddenly, the thunder light around him intensified, and he began to float up slowly, appearing tens of meters above the rooftop.
Boom! At that moment, another bolt of lightning descended from the sky, fiercely striking Damon, followed by yet another…
Under the rampant thunder, Damon Lopes, in this moment, resembled a Taoist immortal undergoing tribulation from the oriental legends, exciting the reporters to no end.
“Is this the power of an Innate Awakened One? It’s incredible!”
“Yes, I had only heard that Innate Awakened Ones were terrifying and powerful from the internet, but I never expected it to be this exaggerated.”
“To command thunder, and directly manipulate the thunder of nature, no less.” “It’s said that Innate Awakened Ones are reserves for the king, with their exaggerated combat power and fast cultivation speed, they can smoothly cultivate up to the Nine Heavens.”
“Once these awakened ones reach the Nine Heavens, if they put in a little effort, they might ascend to the throne someday, which is truly enviable.” “Doesn’t that mean his talent is even higher than Darren Callum’s?”
“You could say that. Although Darren Callum slew an Evil God Clone earlier and displayed great strength, in essence, he only killed a sixth heaven demonic disciple.”
“Compared to Darren Callum, Damon Lopes has a greater advantage. As an Innate Awakened One, he can directly enter the Seventh Layer once he reaches the peak of the Six Heavens.”
“Darren, on the other hand, needs to cultivate top-level skills in order to make a breakthrough.”
“Most of the Cultivation Methods in the Federation are deductions made by high-level cultivators after they’ve broken through to the Eight or Nine Layers, combining their own experiences.”
“These methods are most suitable for the pioneers who created them, and for others who follow, it becomes harder and harder to cultivate, let alone break through to king-level. It doesn’t fit them.”
“If Darren wants to break through after the Seventh Layer, his strength and cultivation speed would have to be comparable to that of an Innate Awakened One like Damon Lopes, which would require him to create his own Secret Manual.”
“But for Darren to create a Secret Manual at the Sixth Layer stage, even with his monstrous talent, would take at least a year or two at the fastest.”
“In a year or two, Damon Lopes, as an Innate Awakened One, might already be at the Nine Heavens.”
Some nodded thoughtfully: “In that case, Darren really can’t compare to Damon.”
As the two insightful journalists’ discussed these secrets, some media journalists nearby had their eyes flicker and quickly took out their mobile phones to take note of this information.
Secret Manuals, high-ranking powerhouses, Innate Awakened Ones – these detailed pieces of information were usually beyond the reach of ordinary journalists.
They never expected to be so lucky today.
When they get back, if they spice up this content a bit, tomorrow’s hot topic might be theirs.
Lately, an Invisible Power on the internet was erasing the feats of Jack Clark slaying the Evil God Clone, elevating Damon Lopes’ status as an Innate Awakened One.
Moreover, there were comments downplaying the strength of that Evil God Clone.
In this context, just a week had passed, and the phrase ‘Darren Callum’ started to cool down online. Perhaps in another half a month, it would be largely forgotten by most people.
This time, Damon Lopes’ tribulation… no, his cultivation lasted for almost half an hour.
It only stopped after the electric charge in the clouds had been mostly depleted.
Surrounded by lightning, Damon Lopes gazed calmly at the journalists below and then slowly drifted back to the rooftop, appearing more ethereal and detached than ever.
After landing on the rooftop, he looked at Jack Clark not far away, who had been observing his cultivation, and Damon slowly said, “Brother Callum, I’ve realized something.”
“Realized what?” Jack was somewhat puzzled.
Damon nodded and said, “I’ve finally understood the essence of your invisible swagger. There’s no need to actively pander just naturally do your own ‘thing’ and that’s enough.”
…Jack was suddenly speechless.
He had thought Damon Lopes had gained some insight into the realm of cultivation, but it turned out to be this.
