Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 686 Heavenly Wraith.

Shi Lang coughed up some blood by slapping himself on the chest. The Qilin beast was surprised, and she did not expect this human to be injuring himself to see through the task. This was the first time she had seen such commitment.

Shi Lang arrived next to her and said softly, "Xiao Qin, I will need to borrow your lightning energy."

The Qilin nodded hurriedly and channeled her spiritual energy through Shi Lang's body. The terran understood the difference between the invincible and supreme at this moment. He had always thought that his cultivation was good and that the purity of his spiritual essence was also high, but he sensed something he could not put into words right now.

The spiritual energy of the Qilin traveled through his meridians, and it refined his spiritual energy to a higher level. Shi Lang did not feel bad because he lost a significant portion of his spiritual essence or because his cultivation path slowed down even more. He was ecstatic because facing an Immortal King was easy with this quality of lightning spiritual energy inside his body.

Shi Lang did not dare to be careless as the spiritual energy coursed through his body. After a few moments, he nodded, and the beast stopped. Xiao Qin watched as Shi Lang channeled spiritual energy through the drops of blood. The blood absorbed the energy greedily and gradually began to squirm.

Xiao Qin was confused when Shi Lang said, "It is time for you to let them shiver with the thunder. The beast nodded and manipulated the clouds. The thunder from the clouds was so loud that it shook the lands.

The people who were gazing at the clouds in doubt were shaken. They were suspecting the clouds, thinking that the clouds and the tribulation were just a random storm till now. Then, after the rumble, a ray of lightning flashed in the void before it landed in the center of the four people.

The protector of the Ning Family was shocked and said, "We need to leave, young master."

Yong Master Ning was shocked when he heard this. He asked, "Elder Kun, what is the matter?"

Elder Kun was an old man with a long beard, but his straight back defined his strength. He said, "These people are trying to resist the heavenly tribulation together. It is not advisable to do so. They will trigger that wrath of the heavens, and I do not think it would be wise to have you dragged down in this mess."

Young Master Ning did not know why the old man was so fidgety. However, before he could ask anything, Elder Kun said, "Look up, and you will find your answer."

The young man raised his head and took three steps back in shock. He saw an avatar. The avatar was composed of lightning and held a sword. After the initial shock, he asked doubtfully, "Why do I feel the pressure coming from this thing is only that of an Immortal Lord?"

His question was correct, but Elder Kun shook his head and said, "The purity of the heavenly lightning is equal to that of an Immortal Emperor. Do you think the heavens need to display overwhelming might while dealing with the four? Do not underestimate the power of the heavens, Young Master. Let us retreat."

The old man had just stopped speaking when Cao Shiyan and the others approached him and began to plead, "Elder, can you suggest any way to deal with this tribulation? Our elder siblings are the future lords of the family. If anything misfortunate occurs, what will we tell our family?"

Elder Kun shook his head slowly and said, "Child, I admire your sentiments for your brother. However, none is stronger than the heavens. All I can do for you is relay whatever is happening here to your family so you will not be implicated."

Cao Shiyan could not have wanted a better solution to this predicament. Initially, he was prepared to kill everyone here with the poison, but he found that Shi Lang was smart and improvised the plan in a manner that even the strongest and the wisest person among them was fooled.

Xiao Qin had been relaying everything that went up in the sky to Xuan Qiling, who passed it down to his group. While the people were talking, Shi Lang used his immortal soul to take control of the lightning clone and land on the ground. He stood right between the four people.

The four people were prepared to combine their spiritual energy to deal with the lightning bolts and were taken aback when they saw this humanoid standing amidst them. Shi Lang, being the efficient killer that he was, made his move. He was so fast that he appeared behind a young man in green brocade robes and a scholarly aura. This person was called Cao Zhihui.

Shi Lang selected this guy for a straight reason; he noticed this guy was the calmest among the group members. He was not afraid of the strongest person but the one with the most wisdom. His lightning clone was not invincible, and if the weakness were seen through so easily, it would become a problem.

The terran did not give the enemy any chance to recollect himself, and a lightning sword moved through the back and penetrated out of Cao Zhihui's chest. The poison was channeling through his body as soon as the lightning blade discharged the aura inside the body. Cao Zhihui froze, and then his body burned from the inside out.

Cao Zhihui fell in battle without a chance to fight back, and even his soul was scattered to the winds of samsara. Cao Shiyan saw this and yelled, "No!"

The acting was realistic; he stepped forward, but lighting flashed before him. Elder Kun reacted and pulled the young man back from his collar. He scolded loudly, "Brat, if you wish to die, do it in your own time. I am leaving this place lest any of you emotional young fools bring tragedy over us. I will keep my word, and your families will not blame you."

That said, the old man grabbed the arm of Young Master Ning and said loudly, "Ning family, leave this place. We are going back. The quest has failed. I will not say it again. Move out!"

The people of the Ning family heard the call, and they moved away as if they had never visited this place in the first place.

...

On the other side, the people of the four families were shocked. Cao Zhihui fell, and the other three did not have time to react when the lightning phantom began to toy with them. Shi Lang dodged every attack; it was like watching them play in slow motion.

He was not underestimating these people; he was still gauging the limits of his skill, and at the same time, he was waiting for these people to fall into a panicked state of mind. Suddenly, he realized he was not the only one pushing the limit. Even Xiao Qin was under great stress.

Shi Lang unleashed the lightning domain, and then what happened the people would not forget even in their afterlife. The terran controlled the space and restricted the enemy's movement while boosting his own twice as normal. His avatar flickered, and the lightning blade reaped three lives instantly.

Shi Lang willed the clone to raise his head and roar before it vanished into the sky. The moment he appeared in the sky, he sensed something. Thanks to the fact that they were all surrounded by clouds and lightning, the other party did not approach them in a hurry.

Shi Lang placed his hand over Xiao Qin's head, and they vanished inside a portal leading to the Inheritance palace. The clouds did not vanish but started raining on the parched ground. Yes, the lightning avatar had scorched the ground and left ashes behind. The members of the four families were grieving with the five youngsters.

Xuan Qiling sensed that Xiao Qin had vanished, and he said, 'Shiyan, Xiao Qin is missing.'

Cao Shiyan raised his head and gazed at the sky. Just when he was about to say something, he spotted Old Man Kun descending from the clouds. He communicated with his spirit sense, 'Do not worry. Ace must have taken her away to safety. This old ginger is spicier. He went up there to check what was going on.'

Xuan Qiling calmed down, and they all sat listlessly on the ground. The rain washed over their visage, and they did not reach when Elder Kin approached them. The elders of the four families were busy relaying the information back to the main house. The protectors of the five youngsters were present behind them, but they were all in cahoots with them.

Elder Kun said, "Children, do not worry. I will see that you all reach home and that your families do not bother you. Calm your hearts. It is glorious for cultivators to die as they face a heavenly wraith."
