Chapter 525: Struck by Lightning! The Middle-Aged Daoist in the Golden Crown! Jia Chuanfang of Mount Zhongnan!
Even in death, the mysterious corpse could not understand why the opponent would unleash such an overwhelming lightning technique, risking mutual destruction just to strike it.
Boom! Boom!
Outside the valley, Master Huizhen and the others were engulfed in a blinding white light, their divine souls scorching with unbearable heat. As their consciousness slowly returned, their minds felt dazed and muddled. They had been shocked in the soul by lightning!
Normally, when one performed an out-of-body technique in the wild and encountered a sudden lightning strike, the soul could be shaken. Because lightning was the purest yang of heaven and earth, it caused extreme harm to the divine soul.
Yet these were accomplished second-realm cultivators. How could they have been so thoroughly shaken by lightning from such a distance, merely while in their physical forms?
When Master Huizhen gradually regained his senses, waves of shock surged in his heart.
“What on earth happened inside that valley?!” He stared at the valley in disbelief.
Meanwhile, within the valley, the mysterious robed corpse had already been reduced to ashes. Perhaps even it had never anticipated this outcome.
Having evaded countless schemes and laid down earth-shattering traps, the mysterious robed corpse was, in the end, struck down by a young Daoist with lightning. It hadn’t even had the chance to make a move, to scheme for itself in this chaotic era of contention, and so it exited the stage of the mortal world so prematurely.
At this moment, a figure slowly rose in the valley. His upper body was bare, revealing solid muscles brimming with explosive strength. By now, his entire body had been charred black by the lightning, and those powerful, masculine muscles were carbonized. Even the slightest movement sent fragments falling with soft, cracking sounds. The sight was utterly chilling.
He leaned on the Jiaoslayer, his gaze calm but tinged with madness. “Damn it... let’s see who’s tougher!”
Then he laughed. At first it was just a smile, but it quickly turned into an unrestrained, wild laughter.
