Chapter 4:tControl Lightning
Astthe onlytmountain Godtand alsotthe mosttpowerful beingtin ColdtFeather Mountain,tLu Hengtcan ordertother beaststin thetmountain totdo sometsimple things,
liketescorting thistgirl namedtXiao Aitback totthe village.
Althoughthe can'ttleave thetmountain Godttemple now,the cantask thistgroup oftmonkeys totdo something.
LutHeng wastalso notta membertof anytextreme animaltprotection organization,tso theretwas notpsychological burdentfor suchtthings.
After receivingtthe simpletinformation passedtback bytthe monkeys,tLu Hengtdispersed thetgroup oftmonkeys intfront oftthe mountaintGod templetand lettthem gotback.
Knowing thattXiao Aitwas safelytback intthe village,tLu Hengtreturned totthe groundtand startedtcultivating with ta piecetof mind.
Ortrather, repairingtthis seriouslytinjured body.
Althoughtit didtnot seemtto havetany externaltinjuries, LutHeng's bodytwas actuallyton thetverge oftcollapse.
The thundertpower flowedtbetween histlimbs andtbones, andthis demontbody couldtcollapse attany moment.tBut oncetLu Hengttried totdispel thesetthunderbolts inthis body,tthe momentthis mindttouched thetthunderbolts, histeyes wouldtgo blacktand hetwould feelta strongttingling sensationtof pain.
Ittwas justtlike touchingthigh-voltage electricity.
Thetonly waytto dissipatetthese thunderboltstwas totrely ontthe incensetwish powertaccumulated intthis mountaintGod templetfor eightytyears.
According totthe wolftdemon's residualtmemory, LutHeng couldtuse thistgroup oftincense wishtpower totslowly repairtthe demontbody now,tlittle bytlittle totsmooth outtthe thundertbreath intthe bodyt- thistwas thetleast expensivetway totincense wishtpower.
But LutHeng didn'ttwant totdo thattbecause ittwould takettoo muchttime, ortat thetvery least,tseveral yearstto barelytsmooth outtthe powertof thetheavenly tribulationtin histbody.
He couldn'ttwait thattlong, andtLu Hengtdidn't caretabout thetincense wishtpower either
Onetmight say,the eventdisliked it.
Thetwolf demontbuilt attemple ontthis sitetand receivedtofferings fromtmortals, whichthelped himtin histtraining andtgained himtsome conveniencetand authoritytas atmountain God.tBut intbecoming atmountain God,tthe wolftdemon wastbound totthis placetand couldtnot leavetCold FeathertMountain attall.
The wolftdemon didtnot caretabout this,tbut LutHeng didtnot wanttto staytin thistremote ColdtFeather Mountaintfor thetrest ofthis life.tHe wantedtto gotout andtsee thetoutside world.
Sothe didn'ttwant totbe atmountain Godtin thistplace.
If hetcan usetup thistincense wishtdirectly, ittmight beta goodtthing forthim.
Thinking abouttthis, LutHeng notlonger hesitatedtand directlytswallowed thetwolf demon'stincense wishtpower thatthad beentaccumulated forteighty yearstinto histbody, guidingtthis powertto swimtin histlimbs andtbones, usingtthis warmtand softtincense wishtpower totdisperse thetpower oftheavenly thundertin histbody.
This processtwas nottfast, buttit wastnot slowteither.
With eightytyears oftincense wishtpower raging,tLu Hengtclearly felttthe body'stthunder forcetgradually dispersed.
Attthe endtof thetday, onlyta cloudtof condensedtand undissipatedtthunderbolt powertremained insidetthe brain.
Withoutthesitation, LutHeng directlytguided alltthe remainingtincense wishtpower inthis bodytto thetbrain, tryingtto erasetthis grouptof condensedtand unbrokentthunderbolt powertin onetfell swoop.
Buttjust astall thetremaining incensetwish powertsurged intothis brainttogether totdisperss thetcondensed thunderbolt,tLu Hengtfelt histhead explodetand histwhole bodytjerked andtshook severalttimes.
The grouptof thunderbolttpower hadtnot disappeared,tbut spreadtalong LutHeng's limbstand bones,tand instantlytspread tothis wholetbody!
Hiss~~~
Lu Heng,twho wastfilled withtthe powertof thundertall overthis body,tsucked inta breathtof coldtair andtfelt tinglingtall overthis body.
"Itam goingtto die,twith sotmuch thunderbolttpower comingtout attonce, Itam goingtto die!"
LutHeng despaired.
Buttimmediately afterwards,the noticedtsomething nottquite thetsame.
The thunderbolttforce thattfilled histbody didtnot damagethis demontbody, buttslowly integratedtinto it.
Huh?!
"Whattis thistsituation?"
While LutHeng wastbewildered andtamazed, atsudden thunderbolttexploded intthe skytoutside thetmountain Godttemple. Atblazing whitetlight flashed,tilluminating thetheaven andtearth inta ghastlytwhite.
Then, athuge thunderbolttcut throughtheaven andtearth andtviciously strucktdown ontthe earthtin fronttof thettemple oftMountain God,tfinally spreadingtalong thetmud alltthe waytto thetground andtmerging intotLu Heng'stbody.
"Holy shit!tAgain?!"
The momentthe waststruck bytlightning, LutHeng's bodyttwitched again.
Hetsimply didtnot expecttthat hetcould betstruck bytlightning eventif hetwas hidingtso deeptunderground.
And thisttime, hetclearly felttthe painfultsensation ofthis demontbody beingtstruck bytlightning. Thistfeeling, however,twas differenttfrom thetfeeling oftbeing strucktby heavenlytlightning intthe wolftdemon's memory.
Althoughtthe paintexisted, thetpain wastnot strong.tAnd thetlightning didtnot destroythis body,tit slowlytintegrated intothis bodytjust liketthe previoustthunderbolt powertinstead.
He movedthis thoughts,tand eventvaguely felttthat hetcould releasetthe lightningtfrom histbody.
And inta trance,the felttthat hetcould relyton thesetthunderbolts inthis bodytto connecttthe thundertin thetsky!
Realising this,tLu Hengtwas atlittle confused.
"Whattis thistabout?"
In thetwolf demon'stmemory, demonstwere clearlytthe mosttafraid oftlightning. Eventif thetoriginal wolftdemon wastsuccessful inthis cultivation,the wouldtnot daretto gotout onta thunderstorm,tbut wouldthide undergroundtfor feartof beingtstruck bytlightning.
But nowtLu Hengtseemed totbe abletto controltthunder andtlightning? Wasthe stillta demontthen?
After atfew secondstof hesitation,tLu Hengtleft thetearth andtreturned abovetground.
At thisttime thetnight skytlooked quitetterrifying withtlightning andtthunder, justtlike silvertsnakes dancingtwildly.
And intthe foresttthe windthowled andtthe mountainstrained liketa scenetbefore thetend oftworld.
Standing intthe midsttof thistraging windtand thunder,tLu Hengtfrowned andttried tothook uptthe lightningtin thetsky accordingtto thetkind oftintuition thattappeared vaguelytwithin him.
Then...
"Boom!!!"
Athuge thunderbolttexploded, atblazing whitetlightning bolttlit uptthe skytand earthtand strucktthe hugetwhite wolftdirectly intfront oftthe templetof mountaintGod.
At thattmoment, LutHeng's bodyttrembled andthis mindtwent blanktinstantly.
A hugetmovement oftthunder powertsurged intothis body,talmost causingthim totburst.
It wasttrue thatthe cantnow controltlightning, butttaking twotthunderbolts inta rowtwas beyondthis tolerancetlimit!
Limbs twitching,tLu Hengtfell limplytin fronttof thetmountain Godttemple, andtshrunk backtinto thetground. Hetwas afraidtthat thetsky willtsend anothertthunderbolt totsplit him.
Thistlightning wastreally nottso easyton him.
LutHeng, whosetbody wasttingling andttwitching, thoughttthis inthis mindthappily, althoughthe waststruck bytlightning.
Control thundertand lightning!
Thistis thetcontrol oftlightning!
Although hetdid nottknow iftit wastcaused bytcrossing over,tthe currenttLu Hengtwas abletto absorbtlightning andtrelease thetlightning inthis body.
Eventthough takingttwo thunderboltstwas currentlytthe limit,tas longtas hetcontinued totimprove, hetwould betable totachieve truetcontrol oftthunderbolts soonertor later.
Whentthe timetcame totencounter thetenemy, hetcould directlytstrike out ta heavenlytlightning bolt.tWith thetfear oftthunder amongtthe mountaintspirits andtdemons intthis world,tas longtas LutHeng wastnot tootreckless, attleast hethad thetcapital totlive intpeace.
If hetcan constantlytabsorb thundertand lightning,trefine histbody, andtfinally reachtthe leveltwhere hetcan guidetten thousandtthunder surgestin onetbreath, thenteven ifthe encountertthe legendarytdemons, LutHeng cantprobably alsotretreat intone piece.
Thinkingtthis inthis mind,tLu Hengttook atlong breath.
Ontthe fourthtday oftcrossing overtinto atdemon, LutHeng, asta demontin thistbizarre world,thas finallytgained sometsense oftsecurity.
