Chapter 258 - Despair (1/2)
Chapter 258: Despair
Ling Chuxi only managed to stand back up after a while. She swayed on her feet. A trickle of blood oozed out from the corner of her lips. Only her two eyes remained as clear as usual. She stood in the center of a crater as the ground she was standing on had been blasted into a pit by the thunder and lightning, a physical account as to the power of the strike of heavenly thunder just now.
Looking at the condition of her own body, there was still no qualitative change, which meant that the process of Heavenly Lightning Striking The Body was still not completed! Things had already reached such an extent, yet it still wasn’t completed!
Ling Chuxi gave a bitter laugh. No wonder so many people fell on the road of promotion at the Level 9 Pinnacle stage. This process of Heavenly Lightning Striking The Body was truly not an easy feat to overcome.
Regardless, it was already here for her to face anyway. No matter how, she still had to hold on. Ling Chuxi ruthlessly decided this and looked up again at the freely roving sparks against the black sky.
With a monstrous rumble, the fourth strike of heavenly lightning fell. This time, it was actually four pillars of lightning that gathered together, bringing together the power of heaven and earth before striking down mightily from the sky.
The solitary slender figure standing in a crater in the woods was once again surrounded by lightning sparks.
Then the lightning dispersed, and that figure slowly stood up once again. b.l.o.o.d.y spots and traces appeared all over her robes, however, her gaze remained as stubborn and determined as before.
Without waiting for her to slowly regain her breath, the fifth, sixth and seventh strikes of heavenly lightning immediately struck her one after another without giving her the slightest chance to take a breather.
Between the flashes of lightning and roars of thunder, the entire Silver Ancient Mountain Range seemed to have descended into an apocalypse, able to plunge anyone watching into depression and fear.
The lightning dispersed eventually and after a long while, Ling Chuxi finally managed to stand back up again. Traces of blood had soaked through her robe and even her vision seemed to be drifting in and out.
Her whole body was in so much pain that she had lost all her senses. It was as if her soul had left her body and was floating around in boundless lands.
“Come on. I won’t give up. I absolutely won’t give up,” muttered Ling Chuxi to herself as a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in her eyes as they once again shone with an unyielding determination.
