“Could my senses be wrong? Or has my body been numbed after getting shocked for the whole night?”

Jiang Yi’s blinked his eyes in a daze and saw that the Thunder Fire had started to be absorbed into the thunder mountains. He didn’t have time to test it anymore as he skimmed over to collect the thunder stones.

As expected, after collecting around 800 thunder stones, he heard sounds from the west. The subordinates of the ten chiefs were flying over. Jiang Yi turned and immediately retreated as he rushed into the thunder ridge and vanished into the mountains.

After spending two hours, Jiang Yi reached the deepest part of the thunder ridge. He found his regular spot and flew into a cliff cave on a mountain peak, which was surrounded by Thunder Fire. Furthermore, he was at the belly of the mountain, and even if there was a thunderbolt, it wouldn’t strike on it, making this place the best hiding place.

“I’ll give it a try!”

He didn’t have time to try earlier, but it was safe right now. Jiang Yi immediately prepared to test if his eyesight was blurred or was his body numbed.

He took out a piece of thunder stone and carefully refined it with a trace of essence force. As ‘chi-chi’ sound could be heard, electric arcs randomly shot into the body.

“This...”

His eyes widened as he didn’t sense it wrongly. His body was indeed not shivering anymore, and there was much lesser pain in his body. When he had entered the Union of Heaven and Man last night, he couldn’t even feel the pain in his body; thus, he couldn’t have known.

“My body actually has resistance against the power of thunder? How can this be possible? This isn’t a drug where your body would form a resistance towards the medicinal effects after taking too much of the same drugs. How could such a thing happen? Furthermore, it had just been a single night...”

Jiang Yi’s heart was surging with waves. His used his divine senses to scan his body multiple times, and after scanning for an entire hour, he still could find any changes to his body as it was exactly the same as before.

He refined the thunder stone again and had concluded that the pain was definitely weakened. The thunder energy still scattered throughout his body like last night, but apart from the resistance against the pain, there wasn’t anything else that was different.

“Let me try to increase the essence force when refining it...”

Jiang Yi was determined as he increased the essence force by two folds. An extremely huge electric arc scuttled into his body, which produced a response. His entire body was feeling intense pain, and it was trembling again like an outbreak of epilepsy.

When the pain had weakened, Jiang Yi continued to test it a few more times and finally had a conclusion!

After getting shocked for an entire night, his body already had resistance against thunder. The resistance might still be weak, but it was actually increasing in strength.

There was another question!

When the human body was constantly being tortured and in pain, the resistance towards pain would certainly increase just like when someone was practicing the Iron Sand Palm. In the beginning—when both hands were thrust into the iron sand, it would be extremely painful. Only after constant cultivation, the hands would become tough like iron.

However, it was only after constant stimulation and diligent practice for many years, which would cause the body to have a little change and producing such results. This was the natural evolution process of the human body. Why was Jiang Yi able to develop a resistance against thunder and lightning in just a single night?

“Destitute Dragon Grass. It must be because of the Destitute Dragon Grass!”

After Jiang Yi pondered for a moment, he discovered that apart from Destitute Dragon Grass, there was no other explanation. He recalled how the Destitute Dragon Grass reformed his body’s meridians, bones, and flesh—how it fixed his crippled body constitution while increasing his cultivation speed by ten folds. The effects of the Dragon Destitute Grass made it seem as though there wasn’t anything mystical about allowing the body to quickly form a resistance against thunder and lightning.

“An increase in resistance towards thunder and lightning isn’t a bad thing. Haha... it wouldn’t be as miserable if I was to get struck by a thunderbolt next time. Don’t bother, time to cultivate my essence force!”

Jiang Yi muttered and didn’t bother after he checked that his body was fine. He then prepared to cultivate essence force according to his routine.

However...

Just as he closed his eyes, they suddenly opened up widely while his body shook a little. He abruptly slapped his thighs and said, “I am a pig! If I can constantly increase the resistance towards thunder and lightning, I wouldn’t be afraid of thunderbolts anymore. I will then be able to absorb the Thunder Fire! Hahahaha!”

Thunder Fire!

It was a type of tyrannical mystic fire which was much hotter than the Netherworld Ghost Flames and not even the ten chiefs dared to approach it. He once had the idea to absorb the Thunder Fire, but there were thunderbolts in the Thunder Fire. Let alone absorbing it, he didn’t even dare to go within 300 meters of it.

It was different now!

He could refine the thunder stones and gradually increase his body’s resistance against the thunder and lightning. When his body was no longer fearful of the power of a normal thunderbolt, he would be able to absorb those Thunder Fire with ease. He could then use the power of the Nine Heaven Stars to refine the Thunder Fire.

The Thunder Fire was already so horrific, how much more terrifying would it be after Jiang Yi refined it? Jiang Yi didn’t dare to imagine it, but it would be so easy to eliminate Heaven Monarchs.

“Hahahahaha!”

Jiang Yi faced the sky and let out a burst of frenzied laughter as he had been feeling rather depressed for the recent month. As long as he could collect the Thunder Fire, he wouldn’t have to be afraid of the ten chiefs. At the very least, he would be able to ignore the likes of Ba Dao and the others.

If he could envelop his entire body with Thunder Fire, who would dare to come within ten miles of him? Who would be able to withstand the high heat? Perhaps... he could even find an opportunity to launch a sneak attack to kill Ba Dao or Chief Long, striking fear into everyone else!

As Jiang Yi was thinking, his body trembled even more incredibly. As long as he could continue residing in the Sky Thunder City, he would be able to constantly obtain thunder stones, and continued to exchange for a large number of merits. By then, it wouldn’t be a problem to even reside in Gods Bestow Island!

The Gods Bestow Island had ten folds the concentration of heaven and earth essence energy, which was going to compatible with the Thearch Palace and his flawless constitution, allowing him to have 1000 folds of cultivation speed. When his essence force was at the peak stage of the Vajra Realm, he would continue to comprehend and combine dao patterns to break through to the Heaven Monarch Realm. Once he had a certain level of strength, he would kill his way back to East Imperial Continent to rescue Su Ruoxue and search for Yi Piaopiao.

Everything was perfect, and as Jiang Yi’s epilepsy was getting more intense, he felt as though he saw a golden path of light, a path for revenge—a path to heaven.

“Refine, refine!”

He took deep breaths. Now wasn’t the time to feel contented. He could wait until his body could truly resist the power of thunder and lightning before saying anything else. Otherwise, everything would just be a moon in the water, a flower in the mirror.

He completely disregarded the cultivation of his essence force and fully concentrated on refining thunder stones. He had used much more essence force to refine the thunder stones as compared to last night, increasing it gradually and allowing his body to adapt. He had entered the Union of Heaven and Man state to observe all changes to his body, and if his body started to have any side effects, he would stop immediately.

After refining for a full day, he didn’t even go to the thunder mountains when night came. He continued to refine in the cave while evading the Thunder Fire several times. When the Thunder Fire wandered away, he would come back to continue refining the thunder stones.

Jiang Yi only stopped when it was time for dawn. He checked his body to make sure that everything was fine before he exited from the Union of Heaven and Man state. While his hand was trembling, he took out a piece of thunder stone to refine.

As expected...

He used the same amount of essence force he used to refine the thunder stones to envelop the thunder stone in his hand. A powerful electric arc entered his body, and his body didn’t even shake at all while the pain in his body was negligible. His resistance towards thunder and lightning was strengthened to the next level.

“Hahahaha!”

He stood up and let out a burst of frenzied laughter towards the sky like a maniac. His voice pierced through the Nine Heavens and echoed dozens of miles in radius. The thunder ridge, which was already eerie, was now even more hair-raising.

“Half a month. I just need half a month to increase my resistance towards the thunder and lightning to a horrifying level. By then, I will be able to collect the Thunder Fire.”

His eyes looked through the dark skies and at the bundles of roaming Thunder Fire. His eyes were filled with zealotry while the corner of his mouth revealed a wicked smile. His eyes turned towards the direction of the Sky Thunder City while he spoke in an immense tone, “Ba Dao, Chief Long, just you wait. We will meet very soon.”
