Chapter 723: Chapter 743: Sudden Turn of Events
Watching the bolt of lightning strike down from the sky, Chu Lin was startled. Although this lightning wouldn’t cause much harm to him, the numbing pain all over still made him uncomfortable.
In the blink of an eye, a blue lightning bolt as thick as a barrel struck down, and Chu Lin endured the exquisite sensation it brought him with a helpless expression, feeling as if thousands of ants were gnawing at his body, entirely struck into the yellow sand. Surprisingly, the Tree of the Five Elents wasn’t even slightly damaged.
After a long while, Chu Lin climbed up from the yellow sand, looking like soone who had just dug coal, all covered in black, and his clothes were gone, completely resembling a wild man.
Looking at his own sorry state, Chu Lin smiled bitterly, "Damn! There are still four Five Elents Fruits to gather, which ans enduring twelve more lightning strikes. This ti, I’m really playing it big; my life really is tough."
"You brat really don’t know what’s good for you, counting your blessings while acting coy. The transformation this lightning brings to your body is sothing countless people dream of. You think anyone could withstand such lightning? If you’re completely transford by this Five Elents Thunder, I believe over eighty percent of impurities in your body will be removed, and your cultivation speed will be like a thousand miles a day.
I’m so envious; even the top experts in the Immortal Realm may not have a pure body like yours, and you get to obtain these Five Elents Fruits. Why don’t you get struck dead by the lightning, it’s really infuriating." Sword Spirit couldn’t help but exclaim in anger.
"Hehe! I’m just saying, why are you so angry? Besides, look at ; I really feel miserable like this." Chu Lin laughed.
He looked up at the sky; at this mont, the dark clouds had disappeared, reverting to their dark red color, no longer resembling the earlier stormy sky full of lightning and thick clouds.
After introspection of his body, Chu Lin found so granular blue crystals in his ridians, each shimring with blue lightning, leaving Chu Lin puzzled about this phenonon.
"What are these blue crystals, Sister Yue’Er, do you know?" Chu Lin asked.
"They’re Water Thunder Crystals, an extrely rare Thunder Elent. Because you have a Thunder Spirit Body, they naturally form. When you fully endure this Five Elents Thunder, other attribute Thunder Crystals will form as well, and at that ti, you’ll be the first to possess Five Elents Thunder Crystals. When your strength reaches a certain level, the attack power you unleash won’t be weaker than the Five Elents Thunder." Sword Spirit explained.
"So powerful? Then won’t I be rich? Once I learn Thunder Transformation, who in the Netherworld can be my match?" Chu Lin instantly laughed, thinking about the frightening power he would have, picturing how he would use lightning to kill people in the future.
Just one random lightning strike could make soone look like a stricken ghost, and there’s a chance to seriously injure them. Being struck by lightning causes numbness, essentially making the opponent stand still for you to strike, a peerless skill for killing and silencing.
"Don’t be happy too early; there’s still the matter of inputting elents into four fruits. Rember to use the Fire Elent last, or else you’ll burn the Tree of the Five Elents to death, which really wouldn’t be worth it." Sword Spirit warned.
Chu Lin was startled; if Sword Spirit hadn’t said that, he had really planned to try using the Fire Elent on the fruit he thought was the Fire Fruit. So he imdiately used Earth Transformation, allowing the Earth Elent to rapidly touch the four fruits, quickly discovering that one was frantically absorbing.
After finding the target, Chu Lin began the tedious input process, similar to obtaining the fruits, it took almost two days to obtain the Earth Fruit, likewise accepting the baptism of Earth Thunder, leaving him extrely frustrated.
Ti passed, and the subsequent acquisition of the Golden Fruit and Wood Fruit was relatively quicker. The greatest harvest was undoubtedly the Wood Fruit; the green Wood Thunder was Life Thunder, speechlessly enhancing Chu Lin’s life force.
Additionally, it significantly improved injury recovery, if at that mont he was severely injured by the Viper, he was sure it would take no more than an hour to fully recover, a drastic improvent compared to before.
Calculating the ti, there were only two days left before leaving this place, and he should manage after obtaining the Fire Fruit. However, as the Fire Fruit was about to mature, Chu Lin encountered trouble.
The desert’s climate was dry and hot, resulting in many Fire Attribute Nether Beasts appearing here. When the previous four fruits matured, the terrifying lightning in the sky kept these Nether Beasts at bay, but when the Fire Fruit matured, the rich Fire Elent was sothing any Fire Attribute Nether Beast wanted.
Chu Lin continued inputting the Fire Elent into the last fruit, but dozens of various Nether Beast creatures appeared around him. These Nether Beasts weren’t genuine Nether Beasts, as they required absorbing energy from Illusion Stones and also desperately needed Fire Attribute Energy.
People die for wealth, birds die for food; this is the most realistic portrayal of the world. Chu Lin glanced at the surrounding Nether Beasts and found one whose strength rivaled a Tyrannosaurus—a Fire Scorpion, very similar to what he encountered in Mist Forest.
Its two enormous pincers glead ominously; if caught, even a steel body would be snapped, "These damn creatures, why’d they show up now? If I don’t show them a lesson, they’ll really think they can bully ." Chu Lin said in frustration.
The Fire Fruit was soon to mature, and dark clouds began gathering again, with rumbling thunder in the sky. Chu Lin was a bit anxious at that mont, realizing a few fearless creatures were approaching him.
Chu Lin knew that obtaining the Fire Fruit required enduring the Thunder Tribulation first. But the final Fire Thunder could definitely knock him several ters away or into the yellow sand, and then the Fire Fruit would be seized by these Nether Beasts. Retrieving it would be troubleso.
"Sister Yue’Er, after the Fire Fruit matures, can you help
pick it? I’m too occupied to do it myself!" Chu Lin imdiately asked Sword Spirit.
"I cannot do that; the Fire Elent on the Fire Fruit is the fla of heaven and earth, posing a great threat to Soul Bodies. If I picked it, the Fire Elent might consu , and you understand the consequences." Sword Spirit replied.
Chu Lin panicked upon hearing that; if even Sword Spirit couldn’t assist him, then the Fire Fruit would be the Nether Beasts’. But in his anxiety, Sword Spirit spoke:
"Though I can’t pick the Fire Fruit for you, I can help fend off so of these Nether Beast monsters. My power is limited, so you need to hurry." Sword Spirit stated.
"Just your words are enough; I won’t disappoint you!" Chu Lin imdiately smiled, and at this mont, the Fire Fruit had matured, ready for picking after the Thunder Tribulation.
Initially, Chu Lin thought the other fruits were like ordinary fruits, obtainable after one lightning strike. But the subsequent three required three lightning strikes to fully mature, leaving him a bit puzzled. However, at that mont, a fiery red lightning bolt struck down from the sky...
