An Immortal Master Kneels Before Village Chief Bu – Lightning Technique
It was like the rainbow came out to play a violent game of dodge ball, with the cultivators being horrible dodgers.
“Th-this has to do with Mu Yu?” Village Chief Bu gulped as he hid behind the only cultivator still standing.
“You are the only one who can stop him. You must live on, Elder.” The cultivator powered up, leading to him bleeding, so that he could levitate higher with Village Chief Bu.
“Mu Yu… What in the world happened?” inwardly questioned Village Chief Bu, before the elemental demons caught up to besiege them again. “What do we do, Immortal Master?”
Bleeding heavily, the cultivator responded, “We have no choice but to fight our way out now. I cannot defeat them on my own, so our fate lies in your hands now.”
“In my hands? You mean to hand me over to them?!”
“No, no, no, Elder. I will offer my life to protect you. What I mean is that you have a formidable lightning skill that an adept planted inside you to protect you. You can instantly kill them if you activate it.”
“I have a what?”
“Focus inward on the region near your heart. When your life is threatened, the skill automatically activates. You, however, can also trigger it manually. Mu Yu needs your help; he is our race’s hope.”
“All right, for Mu Yu’s sake! Can you instruct me?”
“All you need to do is touch your chest, and you will feel the technique’s existence,” directed the cultivator, erecting a white screen to ward away the flying projectiles from the guffawing elemental demons, though the screen appeared feeble in the face of the barrage.
Every time the cultivator’s face turned a little paler, Village Chief Bu’s tension would climb up a notch. As he frantically touched his chest for the supposed sensation, Village Chief Bu finally felt a numbing sensation. At the same time, he instantly acquired the knowledge to deploy the skill, startling him. Village Chief Bu conjured a layer of blue lightning to his body and lightning to his eyes, energy concentrating his arms. The blue energy converted into a domain stretching hundreds of kilometres – Lightning Obliteration Domain.
“I can use immortals’ skills?”
Unlike Mu Yu, it did not cost Village Chief Bu any spiritual energy to deploy the formation thanks to Reverend Nilei’s configuration.
Village Chief Bu soared higher up, while the lightning erased everything within its radius, including the cultivators white barricade.
“I will make you elemental demons pay for brainwashing Mu Yu!”
Like a god of lightning unleashing his wrath, Village Chief Bu raised a hand, firing off lightning blasts aimed at all of the elemental demons at once. Regardless of what element they were, none of them could withstand the lightning forcing its way into their bodies. Every sizzle, every crackle tore them asunder inch by inch, littering the atmosphere with crackling blue sparks.
“That’s a ridiculous domain ability,” commented Gu Ke.
Palace Envoy responded, “Reverend Nilei sacrificed his own true essence to bestow the old man the ability. You couldn’t entice me to fight it with anything.”
“Those elemental demons and humans’ death will not be in vain,” sarcastically added Xi Hongyi.
“Bonus soul energy for us,” Palace Envoy said.
Village Chief Bu, still airborne owing to the residue lightning technique, breathed erratically until he confirmed there were no surviving elemental demons. The remodelled terrain was a whole new concept to him; he was practically in a new world. “Immortal Master, I have wiped out the elemental demons as you instr-, Immortal Master? I-I killed him along with the elemental demons? Wh-what do I… M-Mu Yu…”
A rift in the atmosphere opened, and out came a white silhouette. Wearing a polite smile, Gu Ke informed, “Elder, are you all right? I am the immortal master tasked with taking you to Mu Yu.”
