Chapter 1861: Absorbing Lightning (1/2)
The cultivators who were seeing Li Qiye for the first time were shocked with disbelief: “How can he only be a Dao Serpent when he’s so fierce? Is he hiding his true power?”
“Who knows? If he dares to call himself Fiercest, it’s easy to imagine how tough he is. It’s not easy being the number one in any category. But anyway, he’s an aberration who isn’t afraid of anyone, no, isn’t afraid of killing anyone. No one knows his ident.i.ty either.” Someone else said: “A storm will brew across the thirteen continents because of this guy.”
Meanwhile, Li Qiye was strolling through the lightning field. Each step was another world so he quickly caught up to Feng Yi.
Feng Yi was unconvinced and exerted his vitality to the limit. In the blink of an eye, an immortal light erupted around his body. The rays shot to the sky and the s.p.a.ce around him suddenly trembled. His speed crazily increased just like a meteor. A sizable gap was created between the two.
Li Qiye simply smiled and continued walking across this perilous region.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!” Countless lightning bolts frantically tried to interrupt his stroll. Even the word “torrential” wasn’t enough to describe it. They seemed to have an unspeakable hatred towards him, unceasing until his death.
But despite their crazy onslaught, his palace managed to stop everything. His position became the gathering place for lightning, much more than Feng Yi.
He was entering a more concentrated area where the bolts coiled around him like vines, wis.h.i.+ng to drown him.
“Something’s not right, no, his palace isn’t stopping the palace, it’s actually devouring the power in this field, turning it into his own!” A big shot from the last generation was startled.
The other knowledgeable big shots began to get some clues. From the beginning, they thought that the palace acted as a s.h.i.+eld but this didn’t seem to be the case any longer.
“I see, so the lightning field has lost control; he’s devouring everything.” Another expert murmured in a daze.
“Looks like fewer bolts are hitting us.” Others began to notice the strange phenomenon as well. Eternal was still flying but the waves clearly had fewer bolts than before. The majority was being taken by Li Qiye.
“d.a.m.n, this brat is bizarre, to actively steal the bolts in Exploration Grounds. The ones here are so much more terrorizing than the lightning outside.” One cultivator took a deep breath.
In a short time, many people became scared. The flesh couldn't handle these bolts. But now, Li Qiye was actually absorbing them to the crowd’s horror.
Of course, they didn’t know that Li Qiye had a supreme item inside the four images of his palace, the Ancient Void Rune!
It could even withstand a heavenly tribulation and absorb it, let alone these trivial lightning bolts. It was an easy meal.
He didn’t require energy since he was able to manipulate s.p.a.ce. This wasn’t the case for Feng Yi. After utilizing his movement technique to the extreme to rush forward, he was burning vitality and chaos energy at a rapid rate. Despite increasing the distance between him and Li Qiye, this wouldn’t last much longer.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!” The bolts around Li Qiye only increased. He had become a lightning rod, taking everything in nearby.
“Oh G.o.d, is he insane?” The experts on Eternal were amazed.
Looking from afar, Li Qiye was completely engulfed in bolts as if he was made out of them. Lightning was coursing and flas.h.i.+ng through his body.
Jilin Princess shook her head and smiled wryly. This was only child’s play for an overlord like Li Qiye. This whole compet.i.tion was a whimsical desire. Someone of Feng Yi’s level couldn’t get into his sight.
“Boom!” The bolts. .h.i.tting him started to change. Now they carried a purple glow; they didn’t look as blinding as before. In fact, this looked much more beautiful.
