I Have A Martial Dao World-Chapter 537 - : 537. The first time being struck by lightning.

Chapter 537: 537. The first time being struck by lightning.

Although he failed to buy a nuclear bomb, Lu Yao wasn’t much disappointed; he knew that with a higher realm, he would naturally possess power not inferior to nuclear weapons.

“Head over to that cluster of rain clouds ahead.”

This time, Lu Yao issued instructions while riding on Ping An; the three Spiritual Sparrowhawks flew towards the distant thick dark clouds.

It was August on Blue Star, and the weather around the capital was exceptionally humid and hot—an obvious sign that rain was coming.

Lu Yao set up the “launch platform.”

It sounded high-end, but it was actually just a metal frame with a Sky-Piercing Monkey on it, and a copper wire tied to its rear end.

...

Soon, the Sky-Piercing Monkey would fly into the dark clouds and attract a thunderbolt to follow the copper wire down.

It seemed simple, yet it was all high technology; not to mention tracking electrically charged particles, simply calculating the changes in the rocket’s velocity was something few countries could achieve.

Once everything was ready, Lu Yao instructed the three Spiritual Sparrowhawks, “You three protect me during my practice. If anything unexpected happens, take me and hide in a concealed location.”

The sparrowhawks nodded, almost as if they understood human nature.

This was Lu Yao’s primary reason for bringing them back. After all, it was a test related to the divine soul, and it was better to be safe.

“Then let’s begin!”

Lu Yao took out the remote control and pressed the launch button. The rocket shot upward with a tail flame, piercing the sky.

By then, the dark clouds had grown thicker; amidst the rumbling, thunder and lightning surged, and the rocket attracted a thunderbolt at just 500 meters altitude.

The thunderbolt immediately conducted down to the ground through the alloy copper wire.

Lu Yao had long been awaiting in a state of soul travel and immediately went to meet it!

A red bolt of lightning zigzagged through the air, striking directly above his divine soul.

This natural thunderbolt was utterly different from mundane electricity, with no intention of sparing Lu Yao. With a crackling sound, sparks flew, electrifying him from head to toe!

Lu Yao’s mind was instantly filled with a raucous temple fair, complete with gongs, drums, and suonas blaring, accompanied by intense pain; his eyes were nearly bulging out.

He couldn’t help but shout, “Fuck your mother!” and hurriedly returned his divine soul to his body.

All along, only the martial path had been painful and exhausting, while spirit refinement had been quite enjoyable.

Especially when he made progress, it felt as though the dusty pearls in his mind were carefully wiped clean, becoming exceptionally clear.

But at this moment, the Lightning Summoning Rocket, merely by attracting a thin thunderbolt, had made Lu Yao experience the most extreme pain, coming from the depths of his soul.

After quite a while, the temple fair in his mind finally dispersed, leaving behind only a needle-like pain.

Opening his eyes, he saw the three Spiritual Sparrowhawks had gathered around, their intelligent eyes filled with worry.

The somewhat simple-minded Ru Yi was already planning to grab its master and leave.

Lu Yao quickly waved a hand, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Finally, he took a deep breath to steady his spirit and carefully felt the experience.

“Natural thunderbolts are also currents of electricity, but they contain a mighty will!”

This was Lu Yao’s biggest impression. As soon as he touched the thunderbolt, he first felt a rush of ultimate destructive and violent intent, but after withstanding it, there surged a torrent of vitality.

“Thunderbolts are like a forge and a grindstone, repeatedly tempering the divine soul, leading to all kinds of incredible powers. This is the secret of the Thunder Tribulation Realm!”

Lu Yao exhaled and looked at the launch platform beside him, his face full of excitement!

This thing was useful, extremely useful! It could properly attract a weak thunderbolt, allowing him to enter the “Half-Step to Heavenly Tribulation.”

In this way, when the time came to truly cross the Heavenly Tribulation, it would undoubtedly be much simpler!

Just as he was thinking this, countless dazzling electric sparks tore through the dark clouds, illuminating the earth.

The next second, ear-splitting thunder resounded across the sky, lasting for a long time.

“The awe-inspiring might of nature,” Lu Yao remarked as the rain poured down in torrents.

Suddenly, he noticed the three Spiritual Sparrowhawks looking uneasy at this moment, clearly very fearful of thunderbolts.

They too would have to cross the Heavenly Tribulation in the future. However, unlike the Human Race, their physical bodies would fly into the thunderbolts for a baptism, a matter of life and death just the same.

Lu Yao, stroking the smooth feathers of the sparrowhawks, reassured them with a smile, “Don’t be afraid. There’s always a way out in heaven; from destruction springs new life.”

After attracting a sliver of thunderbolt, Lu Yao had no energy left, so while recuperating, he started attending to other matters.

Previously, training under the deep-sea pressures had yielded significant results, so this time he wanted to buy a “Deep-sea hydrostatic pressure simulator” while he was back.

It is an instrument used in the field of materials science, mainly for simulating hydrostatic pressure tests.

Lu Yao wasn’t short on money, so he contacted the manufacturer directly and spent 20 million to buy the largest one.

At the same time, he took out all his magical treasures and used the willing power of Yan Huang to refine and repair them.

After busying himself with these tasks, the most critical mission arrived as night fell!

Lu Yao took out long-missed sunglasses and a mask from the space-time bubble, contracted his muscles and bones to change his physique, becoming much shorter and thinner.

Finally, with cash prepared, he sneaked to a small commodities market and purchased nearly ten thousand pairs of silk stockings of various styles and colors!

There were flesh-toned, black, and white silk stockings, as well as all sorts of thigh-highs, garters, and fishnets.

As he shopped, he became more interested and started to buy some risqué clothing… until he couldn’t stop himself, purchasing a huge pile of items that shattered human moral boundaries and targeted the darkest desires of the heart.

Straight-laced individuals like Liao Ya and Yu Yanmei would definitely want to beat him up if they saw this.

Stowing everything into the space-time bubble, Lu Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief, as such matters absolutely couldn’t be recognized by others.

At this time, the city’s nightlife had just begun.

Lights illuminated the streets as rows of food stalls set up, their business booming, as far as the eye could see.

The fountain square was filled with melodious music and changing lights, with groups of people laughing and playing.

Lu Yao let out a breath of relief and recalled what Xu Fu had mentioned about “Blue Star being marked.”

His brows furrowed, and he clenched his fists tightly, “I certainly won’t let that monster succeed!”

~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day, the magical treasures had all been restored to their original state, further filled with the willing power of Yan Huang.

Lu Yao had also mostly recovered, so he summoned another bolt of lightning to strike himself, only then taking a bunch of things with him to return to the Otherworld.

No sooner had he returned than he heard lively songs and dances coming from the direction of the camp.

Riding the Spiritual Sparrowhawk closer, he saw that the female disciples of Joyful Sect were performing for the soldiers.

While their gestures were coquettish, the show was not overly risqué—average by the standards of the Blue Star Girl Group, but in the Otherworld, it was enough to send blood pumping.

The soldiers watched with great enthusiasm, cheers and applause never ceasing.

At that moment, someone with good eyesight spotted the Spiritual Sparrowhawk in the sky and immediately knew that the True Lord had arrived.

The commanding officer of the second division stationed here—Tan Bacui, along with senior military officers and accompanying martial artists, came forward to welcome him.

“We pay our respects to the True Lord!”

Some, seeing Lu Yao for the first time, hesitated whether to kneel or not.

Fortunately, the leaders bowed with clasped fists, and the others quickly followed suit.

“All rise, you have worked hard,” Lu Yao said, as usual, encouraging a few words, and the crowd also came forward to chat with him, trying their best to leave a good impression.

In no time, the scene was abuzz, much like a “high-ranking leader visiting the grassroots.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the bustle had died down and the others had dispersed, Yun Qinglan came up coquettishly, “True Lord, the soldiers have been continuously winning battles recently, so I took it upon myself to organize a song and dance performance as a reward.”

This woman followed the army solely to please him, and naturally, Lu Yao accepted her gesture with kindness, “You are considerate. Just having you join the military expedition this time is rare, and I won’t let you be disappointed.”

Yun Qinglan was filled with surprise, “I seek no reward, only for the True Lord to be satisfied.”

Lu Yao chuckled and nodded, “Just remember, I will not let my followers down. Now, go about your duties.”

Yun Qinglan placed her hand on her waist, bowed deeply, her gaze intensely fixed on Lu Yao, “Qinglan takes her leave.”

After the departure of the others, Lu Yao felt that this fawning behavior was somewhat hard to deal with.

Essentially, he considered himself someone who cherished beauty and cherished fragility.
