Chapter 798: Chapter 394: The True Fruit of the Red Dragon, Thunder Refining the Body_4
His gaze flickered as the thunder dimmed and brightened uncertainly; he finally found a reason for himself to make a move.
“It seems you are unwilling to tell me, so I won’t force you. Today, I was eager to see the hunt, so let’s have a few good moves with you.”
As he finished speaking, he stamped one foot fiercely, and the thunderous waves beneath exploded, transforming him into a bolt of thundering ribbon, rushing toward Lu Yun.
“So strong!” Feeling the thunderous energy rushing toward his face, Lu Yun’s heart tightened, followed by a bracing surge of combat intent.
Boom!
His arms shook, drawing down a sky-toppling purple radiance that clearly outlined Lu Yun’s towering figure. Within the shadows of his fists, there was a powerful thunder power.
He too commanded the power of thunder and had infused it into the Divine Ability “Instant Horizon.” He rarely used it, mostly deploying it for thunder escape.
Now, in this sky of Fang Tian, where the Daoist Law of Thunder was rich and with the presence of the Thunder Tribulation war body Chu Jungui, Lu Yun had some thoughts in mind and thus employed the thunder power he had not used in a long time.
With a bang,
Under the powerful impact, Lu Yun was sent flying back, landing upright into the lake of thunder. The violent thunder tore his clothes into shreds, revealing his lustrous and translucent skin.
Chu Jungui frowned slightly, looking down at Lu Yun from above, and said coldly,
“Show me your real strength, or this battle will have no dissenting opinion.”
“If you don’t wish to fight, you can leave at any time; no one will stop you.”
As the words fell, Lu Yun slapped the surface of the lake with one palm, soared high into the air, transformed his palm into a knife, and along with a streak of lightning, slashed forward.
Chu Jungui quickly dodged, but it was too late. The Thunder Knife Aura was incredibly swift, piercing through his Thunder Armor and striking him hard, leaving a terrifying wound with remnants of thunder power, where electric arcs flickered.
Feeling the intense pain in his abdomen, Chu Jungui immediately knew that he had been careless and had underestimated his opponent.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and his right hand gently brushed over his abdomen, plucking the lingering thunder from there and condensing it into a ball of thunder in his palm, which crackled with spurts of electricity.
Immediately after, with a roar, he charged toward Lu Yun.
In an instant, two figures flashed back and forth in the sky, causing lightning to streak and thunder to rumble.
After dozens of fierce exchanges, a violent bolt of thunder fell, striking Lu Yun hard and sending him tumbling, his skin split and flesh torn, half his body charred, blood flowing.
The Thunder Tribulation war body Chu Jungui was strong in his own right, and after a prolonged seclusion in the lake of thunder, he took an essential step in the Dao of Thunder. Serious now, any bolt of his thunder carried devastating attacks.
Even Lu Yun’s physically body, hardened by countless trials, unmatchable in resilience, could not withstand it.
Lu Yun’s body, now tempered by Divine Power, was far stronger than many fierce beasts, even more robust than the ordinary upper-grade spirit weapons, but under this destructive thunder, he was still injured.
However, Lu Yun was not discouraged. In the battle with Chu Jungui, he comprehended the Daoist Law of thunder, fusing with it, continuously enhancing his own Dao of Thunder and the strength of his physical body.
“Again!”
Lu Yun’s fighting spirit was boundless, and he carried an indomitable spirit.
“Boom!”
He flew up swiftly, bringing with him a frenzy of electric arcs. Although not very fierce, they were like the blade’s edge, unstoppable.
However, Chu Jungui, now serious, did not give Lu Yun any opportunities. The thunder exploded, and a giant fierce beast roared forth.
With a roar, the thunder and electric arcs were scattered, and then it struck Lu Yun heavily.
Lu Yun’s originally clear and translucent skin was suddenly scorched black, and even several beams of dazzling golden light from his Imperishable Golden Bones became visible. Thunder Power burst forth from there, and finally, a strong Divine Power tore it apart and slowly dissipated it.
“Although it’s very painful, it’s not a bad way to temper the body,”
Lu Yun muttered to himself, his eyes flickering as he endured the intense pain and continued the fierce battle with Chu Jungui.
Like an undying resilient bug, he was full of tenacity, even if his hair was all standing on end and his skin charred, bones exposed, he still did not give up.
Lu Yun’s actions were not self-destructive; by battling Chu Jungui and enduring the impact of the thunder, the process of being continuously injured was actually a tempering of his physical body, enhancing his resistance to extreme thunder and preparing him for cultivation in the lake of thunder.
Additionally, as a result of this battle, his control over thunder grew stronger, and even his Divine Ability “Instant Horizon” improved further.
As for Chu Jungui, his face was grim.
In this battle, it seemed as though he was completely dominating Lu Yun, but in reality, he was being used as a whetstone by his opponent.
After a dozen more rounds, he could no longer restrain himself. After slapping Lu Yun into the lake of thunder, he withdrew and left.
“What a boring guy!”
Chu Jungui snorted coldly, swiftly disappearing into the skies above the lake of thunder.
“Ah, leaving so soon? I haven’t even had my fill yet,” Lu Yun emerged from the lake of thunder, extinguished the flickering thunder from his body with one hand and showed a look of unsatisfied longing on his face.
Although, in this battle, he was the one being overwhelmed.
But such a battle should not be judged by the process or by victory or defeat.
What matters is what both sides gain from the battle in the end.
Without a doubt, Lu Yun’s gains were substantial.
As for Chu Jungui, he not only gained nothing but also unwittingly allowed himself to be used as a whetstone.
Even though he won, he essentially lost; he simply threw in the towel and left.
