Lu Shu had once envied Zhi Wei’s and Coral’s ability to control lightning. After all, lightning had extraordinary destructive power to humans. If Lu Shu did not have his mystic water, he may not even come on par with the lightning.
His mystic water had started to play tricks. It had been sucked up by the chaos for its transformation…
He had used up his aurablade. He was injured. His mystic water was gone. It never rains but when it does, it pours. When Lu Shu saw the lightning around the sword prototypes, he was touched. At least something good had happened to him after being struck by lightning…
From the look of things, Lu Shu could have died from the lightning strike, not to mention a divine punishment. Lu Shu could not be happy too quickly. Very few snakes would be chosen to transform into dragons when they advanced, as this was seen to certainly result in death.
When a snake transformed into a dragon, moulting alone would cause the snake to exhaust all its energy. Afterwards, it still had to face a divine punishment. Most would avoid it if they could.
For thousands of years, there had been no snakes who had transformed into dragons.
Divine punishment was used to punish those who committed deeds in defiance of the natural order. Under normal circumstances, once one had undergone divine punishment, they would break through the cocoon and be reborn.
But it seemed like the heavens did not think this way. They probably only wanted to kill those who defied the natural order once and for all…
If Lu Shu had not been protected by the golden pillars, he would probably be dead.
Would the aurablades produced be stronger? Lu Shu could only wait patiently. He fell asleep.
The sun rose and its golden rays illuminated the sky. A wake up call sounded throughout the camp. The cook house was the first one to start operations.
Lu Shu woke up in a daze. When he understood what had happened to him, he was shocked.
What are you guys doing!
Chen Hao, Chen Zuan and a large group of people ran over to Lu Shu with concerned looks on their faces. After they saw that he had woken up, they smiled.
This is our first time seeing a survivor of a lightning strike. We were worried about your safety, thus we came to protect you.
To Chen Hao and the rest, no matter the reason why Lu Shu had been struck by lightning, Lu Shu was the one who had stepped up and killed the man-eating lizards. Lu Shu was the one who had jumped into the cavern with determination to continue killing the man-eating lizards. He had bravely stepped forward in the face of danger. They all respected him for that. He had acknowledged his comrades from the bottom of his heart…
Now that their comrade had been injured, they would definitely visit him. They also wanted to know how he was like after being struck by lightning…
Go do what you have to do. I’m fine. I’ll recover in two days.
Lu Shu was somewhat annoyed. He felt that their curiosity overpowered their concern for him.
A military doctor and a nurse entered the tent. When the military doctor saw the crowd inside the tent, he furrowed his eyebrows.
The patient still has burns on his body. Everybody, please go out. This is to prevent him from being affected by the bacteria that you bring in.
Chen Zuan laughed.
No worries. A Practitioner would not be affected by just bacteria…
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Shu interrupted him.
Didn’t you hear the doctor? Get out. Ha ha, we’ll take about this later.
Chen Zuan suddenly shivered. He had said too much. Now, he felt that he had ridiculed someone who could not be ridiculed… Chen Zuan led the crowd to exit the tent.
The doctor walked to the bed and sized up Lu Shu. He looked at Lu Shu for a full five minutes. Lu Shu thought that this doctor was quite detailed when it came to checking for injuries. But he heard the doctor sigh,
Awesome!
Lu Shu was dumbfounded.
Was this something that a doctor should say?
The military doctor continued sighing.
Although I have been a doctor for so many years, I never thought that I would receive a patient who had been struck by lightning…
Enough of your emotions,
said Lu Shu.
The military doctor straightened up.
Be careful of what you eat these few days. Don’t eat anything spicy.
Okay.
Lu Shu noted it down.
Anything else?
That’s all,
the doctor said calmly.
Lu Shu was silent for two seconds.
You are only here to see how I am doing after being struck by lightning, right?
The doctor nodded his head.
We cannot help you Practitioners much. Furthermore, with your recovery abilities, we do not have to do anything. If you get a small injury and come to find me, you are too late. The injury would have healed on its own…
Goodbye,
Lu Shu said calmly.
The chill doctor walked out with the nurse. The nurse was actually quite pretty…
Lu Shu lay down on his bed and rested quietly. He was not in a hurry to go out, nor was he in a hurry to go the remains.
Lu Shu had a pleasant surprise when he found out that the newly produced aurablades were already surrounded by purple lightning. The lightning surged within the aurablades. Lu Shu took one aurablade out to have a closer look. The path the lightning took looked like a mysterious and ancient symbol that vanished as fast as it had appeared.
Chen Zuan laughed.
Brother Shu, you have a good physique. Even after being struck by lightning, you only need two or three days to recover-ver-ver-ver…
A purple aurablade slashed Chen Zuan’s buttock and a small cut appeared. Chen Zuan started to tremble. He could not even control his own body…
From Chen Zuan’s distress, +666!
But what made Lu Shu furrow his eyebrows was that the aurablades could be used multiple times, but these purple lightning aurablades could only be used once. The thunderbolt would involuntarily channel itself into its target’s body, causing Chen Zuan to be in his current state.
After one second, Chen Zuan stopped trembling and ran away. He knew that he had ridiculed Lu Shu too much in the past few days. If he did not run away before Lu Shu recovered, he would be done for!
Lu Shu pondered over his new ability. It seemed like it had the ability to restrict its target.
For three days, he continuously scraped his chi mountain. What made Lu Shu disappointed was that the new sword prototypes did not have purple lightning revolving around them.
He had a fixed number of lightning aurablades. He had 325 of such aurablades in total. This number would not increase, nor would it decrease.
Earlier, when he had been struck by lightning, he thought that he was unlucky. But he suddenly thought of one question. Could he make lightning strike him?
But even rain was rare in this dry desert, let alone lightning. Lu Shu also had no way of confirming that other types of lightning could give him such abilities.
If all his sword prototypes were filled with thunderbolts, not only would they have destructive power, they would also have the ability to restrict his opponent’s movement. This would greatly assure his safety.
