Chapter 474 - Temper Himself (1/2)

“Boom…”

Another Heavenly Thunderbolt struck Ou Yangming.

By then, he had dropped his small round s.h.i.+eld, which was one of the pieces of equipment from his Thunderbolt-resistant Suit. It seemed like he was only giving up one item, but it would cause the suit’s effect to plunge.

After all, the biggest feature about his Thunderbolt-resistant Suit was it was a complete set.

If the set was incomplete, the proportion of the thunderbolt power weakened would be reduced by a huge margin. In fact, the overall effect would be reduced by more than a tenth if one of the pieces of equipment was removed.

Other people would be courting death if they did that. Resisting the Heavenly Thunderbolt was certainly the most dangerous thing to do in the world because one would turn into ashes if one was careless.

Nonetheless, Ou Yangming’s essential Qi was surging inside his body. He had absorbed most of Long Dexing’s essence and blood, which he converted into endless essential Qi for himself as though he wanted to make his body burst.

Every drop of essence and blood in a supreme powerhouse contained unparalleled energy. Fortunately, Ou Yangming had advanced to Extreme Grade, or he could not have accommodated so many of them if he was still in Yang Grade.

Even so, it would not be easy for him to convert the essence and blood into his power. If he was slightly careless, his body would explode, causing him to die.

Perhaps this was the biggest disadvantage of the Devouring ability.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming made an unexpected move by letting go of his full defense against the Heavenly Thunderbolt, allowing its limitless energy to hit him.

Ou Yangming could not help but quiver when the thunderbolt zapped him. The tremble was not only on his body surface, but the inside of his body too. In a way, once the young fellow removed one of his suit’s defenses, the power of the Heavenly Thunderbolt’s repercussion could be sent to every corner in his body.

As soon as the thunderbolt power raged inside his body, the essence and blood calmed down.

Although the essence and blood had no wisdom, they acted instinctively. They would mercilessly release their power if there were no foreign enemy, and they would not care how the body’s master would be affected if the power was overly released.

On the other hand, if an external force was present and could destroy the essence and blood’s supreme energy, they would release their energy more gently and would not reject the commands from Ou Yangming’s consciousness.

Ou Yangming could even sense that the essence and blood feared the thunderbolt power.

They were instinctively afraid, and it would not change even if Long Dexing was already dead.

The thunderbolt’s repercussion kept rippling inside Ou Yangming’s body. As the electric light flickered, his body turned into stubborn iron in the Military Fire and was constantly being tempered to become more tenacious and powerful.

Even though the Heavenly Thunderbolt was fearsome, Ou Yangming had not surpa.s.sed Extreme Grade, after all. Despite that, his body was being supported by the essence and blood of a supreme powerhouse.

Not to mention he was still wearing a Thunderbolt-resistant Suit, even if he had nothing on, he could resist the Heavenly Thunderbolt head-on.

Ou Yangming exhaled deeply and had an idea in his mind already. He shook his wrist to loosen his cloak, causing him to lose another piece of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment. Having said that, his eyes were filled with confidence like never before when he looked up at another strike of Heavenly Thunderbolt.

‘Come on, fiercer…’

The young fellow would be regarded as one of the madmen if people knew what he was thinking at the moment.

Far away, the goshawk and Big Yellow looked at each other outside the thunderbolt zone. They felt penetrating chills from their bodies, and they could not help but shudder especially when they witnessed the scene of the rumbling thunders.

In actuality, they did not know what exactly happened in the zone.

The Inescapable Trap, which had been hit by the Heavenly Thunderbolts before, broke out all of a sudden and enveloped Ou Yangming.

Naturally, the two spirit beasts were frightened. They wanted to save Ou Yangming, but they would trigger the thunderbolts and cause lightning to appear whenever they were close to the small area.

They instantly understood that they would be attacked by the lethal thunderbolts if they insisted on entering the zone.

The goshawk did not have the guts to enter at all because it did not have a protective suit. It knew it would only be doomed if it set foot in the area.

Big Yellow did not have it much better. It had just advanced not long ago, and the Heavenly Thunderbolts’ mightiness was still fresh in its mind. Unless the big yellow dog was compelled, it would not dare to court its death.

The only thing that made them glad was they could still communicate with Ou Yangming through their conceptions. Though the efficiency was extremely low due to the hindrance from the Inescapable Trap, at the very least, they made sure that the young fellow’s life was not in danger for the time being.

Since his life was not being threatened, the spirit beasts did not need to sacrifice themselves to save him.

Who knew, it took only a brief moment for the situation to change drastically.
