Traveler of the River of Time and Space

Bang.

Just as Su Ziyu landed, the Sun Knight not far away raised his hand and threw something. Before Su Ziyu could use telekinesis to control it, the thing exploded right in front of him.

Crackle!

Strands of pale golden electric light flickered, causing Su Ziyu to tremble all over, pausing his actions for a brief moment.

What on earth is this?

Why does it unleash a burst of lightning upon exploding?

It looks a bit like a Flame Pot, but it explodes as soon as touched by telekinesis. Now Su Ziyu understands what it's like for enemies facing him, as he feels a bit numb from the electricity. Although he can control Spiritual Lightning, he isn't completely immune to lightning attacks. They still inflict damage on him, although the power is reduced by about half.

Fortunately, his enhanced physique is high enough to directly resist the control effects of the electric shock.

After all, Su Ziyu isn't truly an Undead. Truly Undead beings have lost their vitality, making them less susceptible to paralysis from electric shocks.

"Taken lightning damage!"

"Entering Overload state!… Current Overload state is 5%!…"

Tiny arcs of electricity jumped across Su Ziyu's body surface as he passively entered an Overload state.

A faint rumble echoed.

As Su Ziyu quickly approached, the Sun Knight hid behind cover, drinking an Elemental Bottle to recover, and tossed several items at him. However, Su Ziyu was prepared and dodged them all.

—"Dung Lump (Curiosity): A lump containing potent poison, with a chance to inflict severe poisoning upon contact."

Oh crap!

What on earth is this guy throwing at me!

Wasn't he supposed to be a righteous Sun Knight?

After dodging a Flame Pot tossed by the enemy, a black, foul-smelling object was thrown his way. When it hit the ground, it exploded, releasing a cloud of gray-black dust. The smell made Su Ziyu feel extremely uncomfortable. He wondered where the Sun Knight acquired such bizarre items.

He's actually throwing dung lumps at me!

And he threw several at once!

Su Ziyu decisively dodged, but doing so gave the enemy a brief moment to breathe. After taking a sip from an Elemental Bottle, the Sun Knight hiding behind cover pulled out a bow and arrow and shot at Su Ziyu.

Whizz.

A sharp arrow whistled toward him.

Su Ziyu instantly swung his sword to deflect it, then pushed off with his right leg, swiftly leaping forward. As the cobblestones beneath him cracked like a spiderweb, he dashed toward the Sun Knight, swinging the Yirushir Straight Sword down.

Clang!

Sparks flew.

A shield appeared in the Sun Knight's hand once more. He blocked Su Ziyu's attack, then a burst of energy pushed Su Ziyu's weapon aside. The opponent swung a longsword, stabbing toward Su Ziyu's kidney. This unique counterattack seemed to be something the Sun Knight had practiced countless times, deflecting enemy melee attacks almost instinctively. However, Su Ziyu's conditioned reflexes were astonishing as well, narrowly dodging while gathering lightning in his palm, slamming it onto the opponent's shield in an instant.

With the force from the shield, Su Ziyu's figure vaulted over ten meters, landing lightly on a broken wall.

Not far away.

The Sun Knight, surrounded by electric light, seemed unconcerned. He stretched his muscles and bones, looked up at Su Ziyu, and said in a deep voice, "I thought you were a crazed Dark Spirit!"

"I didn't expect you to be a Lord of Cinder!"

"It's a pleasure to meet you."

"I am… I am a nameless Sun Knight…"

After the words fell.

The Sun Knight in front suddenly launched an attack. A dark force emerged in his palm, pressing directly against his chest. His aura soared, with noticeably increased speed and power, charging like a human tank.

—"Inner Potential!"

"Praise the Sun!"

With a loud shout, the Sun Knight leapt forward, crossing over ten meters to strike Su Ziyu standing on the wall.

—"Telekinesis Flight."

Su Ziyu's figure rose into the air, ascending ten meters to avoid the opponent's attack. He raised his hand, sending another Spiritual Lightning strike down.

This Sun Knight wore full Metal Armor, making close combat highly unfavorable for Su Ziyu.

Because he never wore armor.

"You can fly?"

The Sun Knight's pupils clearly shrank upon seeing Su Ziyu hovering in midair. After splitting the wall with his sword, he promptly rolled to dodge, simultaneously gathering strands of golden lightning in his palm.

Another Thunder Spear!

A Thunder Spear over three meters long appeared in the Sun Knight's hand. It was made entirely of thunder and lightning, noticeably stronger than the one used against the Beastial Knight. Locking onto Su Ziyu's position, he shouted, hurling the Thunder Spear forward.

Boom!

A clap of thunder echoed in the sky.

—"Flashing."

The speed of the Thunder Spear was too fast.

Even Su Ziyu couldn't completely dodge it, just as his past enemies couldn't dodge his Thunder Strike. This time, he relied on short-distance flashing to evade the attack.

The Thunder Spear shot past harmlessly.

However, just as Su Ziyu prepared to counterattack, a strong sense of crisis suddenly emerged from behind. The Sun Knight seemed to have detected something too, quickly switching to his longbow to shoot an arrow. Without thinking, Su Ziyu immediately activated the Spiritual Protection Field, enveloping his body in a coat of golden lightning the next second.

The Thunder Spear thrown by the Sun Knight hadn't dissipated after missing Su Ziyu. Instead, it continued ascending to over a hundred meters high, then suddenly exploded and shattered into over ten smaller Thunder Spears.

These Thunder Spears descended like falling flowers, with most of them targeting Su Ziyu's figure.

This Thunder Spear had a two-stage damage process, posing a real threat in its second stage when it divided and fell, sealing all routes of escape for Su Ziyu.

"He must be one of the Divine Race!..." Fried, the nun on the distant city wall, whispered.

At the same time.

In Su Ziyu's mind, the Space-Time Monitor System suddenly gave a prompt.

"Alert! Alert!"

"Lightning Overload state is rising!… Current Overload state is 25%!…"

"Detected special-type lightning attack!… Initiating analysis module!… Skill Tree replication and analysis in progress!…"

"Ability analysis will be completed and added to the Spiritual Lightning Skill Tree branch after enduring 3 attacks!…"
