Chapter 367: I Want to Try Being Struck by Lightning, Si Tu Yu Is Stunned

Among the Human Race, when it comes to the most thorough study of Abyss Demons, it can only be the military.

The soldiers have been battling Abyss Demons for years, so they have a deep understanding of how to deal with demons.

They not only understand the demons themselves, but also have a fairly thorough knowledge of the various items in the Abyss.

The various items crafted by Abyss Demons usually take the form of stones, and the Seal‑breaking Fire Stone is one of them.

The Seal‑breaking Fire Stone forged with Abyssal Fire can break seals, barriers, and formations.

Therefore, when the power of the Seal‑breaking Fire Stone is sensed, the nature of the matter changes.

For the Human Race, any association with Abyss Demons is a treasonous crime, unforgivable.

After using the Seal‑breaking Fire Stone, a faint Abyssal Aura lingers around the user for a considerable time.

Interfering with a formation also leaves a trace, which Divine-level formation master Li Xueru cannot conceal at all.

Under Li Xueru's guidance, Si Tu Liang arrived at Si Tu Tuo's room.

However, Si Tu Tuo had long since vanished, and Si Tu Shun was nowhere to be seen either.

All that remained was a puppet that perfectly mimicked Si Tu Tuo's aura, serving as a decoy to hide his whereabouts and Abyssal Aura.

Escaped!

Si Tu Liang's complexion was extremely grim.

Si Tu Tuo's escape made the whole situation crystal clear.

For the Si Tu family, this was a massive disgrace; a Human Race traitor colluding with the Abyss appearing within the royal house is undoubtedly a huge scandal.

Li Xueru, with a cold sneer, said, "As for the military, I will issue a wanted order; as for the Empire, you handle it yourselves."

"If Xiao Chen gets into trouble… you can pray for your own good fortune!"

Li Xueru left, but the murderous intent lingered for a long time.

Although Li Xueru is not Jiang Chen's teacher, his actions are no different from a teacher's.

In Li Xueru's eyes, Jiang Chen is his disciple.

In Jiang Chen's view, Li Xueru has long been regarded as his teacher.

Si Tu Liang's face turned pale; now they can do nothing but pray that Jiang Chen stays safe.

Orders streamed out from the Huang Gong, spreading across the nation.

Si Tu Tuo was declared a traitor and put on a wanted list.

Shortly after Li Xueru returned to Shenlong Tower, a terrifying murderous aura burst out of the tower.

The sky over Shenlong City instantly turned pitch black, day and night inverted.

The murderous aura spread like a black cloud over the Huang Gong, a massive pressure sweeping down and startling almost every royal member.

Everyone in the Huang Gong felt as if a knife hung above their heads, ready to fall at any moment.

Many buildings in the Huang Gong creaked and collapsed one after another.

Situ Li was startled awake from the Secret Realm, rushed out, and stared at the sky with a horrified expression.

They are also a Divine-level Strongman, level 92.

With a single glance they could tell the opponent was far stronger than themselves.

Immediately another Divine-level Strongman from the royal house arrived, Situ Zhan.

Like Situ Li, they are also level 92.

Situ Li said in a deep voice, "Such a strong murderous aura—it's probably at level 95."

Situ Zhan's face grew solemn, "This is Ao God's killing aura; when did we offend Ao God?"

Si Tu Liang also rushed over, their face extremely grim, "This is a warning from Ao God."

At this moment, all three Divine-level Strongmen of the royal house were present.

Si Tu Liang sighed and recounted Si Tu Tuo's deeds.

The two's expressions turned very grim.

Situ Zhan said gravely, "Find Si Tu Tuo; if alive, we must see the person, if dead, we must see the corpse."

Situ Li added, "Thoroughly investigate the family to see if anyone else is hidden inside."

As soon as the Divine-level Strongmen spoke, the Si Tu family sprang into action.

Si Tu Liang knew that, regardless of what they do now, it ultimately depends on whether Jiang Chen can return safely.

Otherwise, not even Li Xueru acting would be enough; even Ao Hongchen would be a handful for them.

Trouble has really become huge!

In Fusishi Jie, Jiang Chen has already found the right direction.

The rotting corpse levels encountered along the way are gradually increasing, and their speed is accelerating.

He has now encountered Level 10 rotting corpses.

He also faced stormy rain and thunder; after a Level 10 corpse is struck by lightning, it can evolve into a Level 15 corpse.

In the storm, Jiang Chen subsequently cleared away a Level 15 corpse that had just been struck by lightning.

Si Tu Yu followed Jiang Chen step by step, not daring to stray a half step.

Three days have passed, and Si Tu Yu has completely calmed down.

Gradually, Si Tu Yu also became infected by Jiang Chen's emotions, adopting a state of taking whatever comes in stride.

At this moment Jiang Chen also learned Si Tu Yu's profession.

Holy Shield Warrior.

It is a very rare profession, also unique to royal families, possessing bloodline inheritance.

There are many profession families with bloodline inheritance, such as the Luo Family with the Legion Overlord profession bloodline, the Yi Family with the Summoner bloodline, and the Ning Family with the Mage bloodline.

Among them are some extremely special bloodline families, such as the Feng Family with the Divine Swordmaster bloodline, and the Si Tu family's Holy Shield Warrior.

This bloodline possesses the ability to advance professions.

At first glance, the Holy Shield Warrior appears only as a Rare-level profession.

During Second Transcendence, there is almost a one‑hundred percent chance to directly advance to a Mythic-level Profession.

It is not Profession Ascension, but the advancement ability brought by the Bloodline.

It is more like the Bloodline's power being activated.

If another Profession Ascension occurs, one can leap the dragon gate and become a Mid Mythic-level Profession.

When speaking of his own Bloodline, Si Tu Yu couldn't help but show a hint of pride, "Aside from our Si Tu family, there is no other Holy Shield Warrior to be found."

"We Holy Shield Warriors possess some Knight Skill and Warrior Skill; our defense is not far behind that of a Knight, and our attack can rival a Berserker…"

Her words, both spoken and implied, mean that the Holy Shield Warrior is a very strong profession.

But halfway through speaking, her voice suddenly ceased; she suddenly realized that the one standing before her was a profession so powerful it was terrifying.

They still have to rely on her protection to survive in the Fusishi Jie.

Their Holy Shield Warrior seems somewhat unremarkable.

Jiang Chen said nothing; Jiang Chen never looks down on any profession.

Especially now, after mastering the vast majority of professions, Jiang Chen believes there are no useless professions, only useless practitioners.

Even a livelihood-type practitioner has its own advantages.

As long as the level can be raised, it won't be lacking.

After walking for half a day, a storm cluster appeared again in the view.

A sour, foul smell spread.

Lightning after lightning illuminated the pitch‑black ground, striking the corpses precisely.

Those fortunate corpses struck by Lightning advanced one after another.

Jiang Chen suddenly spoke, "I want to try being struck by lightning."

Boom!

The thunder roared, perfectly covering Jiang Chen's words.

Si Tu Yu let out a startled voice, "What did you say?"

Jiang Chen whispered, "It's nothing. Stay here and wait for me; don't move."

As he spoke, he summoned two Skeleton Great Mages to protect Si Tu Yu, and he alone stepped into the storm cluster.

Si Tu Yu watched Jiang Chen, not knowing what he intended to do.

Boom!

Another bolt of Lightning fell, striking Jiang Chen.

Throughout the journey, the two have been struck by Lightning many times; with Bone Armor, they suffered no damage at all.

But this time, at the moment the Lightning arrived, Jiang Chen removed the Bone Armor and let the Lightning fall upon his body.

Along with the Lightning fell rainwater, a highly corrosive rain.

Si Tu Yu let out a Scream; she could not believe what she saw as Jiang Chen was struck by Lightning.

The next second, White Light resurfaced on Jiang Chen's body, Bone Armor reappeared, and only then did Si Tu Yu sigh in relief.

When struck by Lightning, current coursed through, the body tingled slightly and warmed faintly.

All damage was shouldered by the Skeletons, leaving no injury.

But this faint heat flow remained within his body.

"Gained Creation Lightning, Experience +100000"

Seeing the message, Jiang Chen's face showed slight surprise, then a sudden realization.

Jiang Chen understood why the corpses struck by Lightning evolved: they also gained experience.

Thus their level increased.

And being struck by Lightning himself also yields experience.

But it's only 100,000 experience, which is rather little.

Based on the experience gathered over the past few days, within a storm cluster, Lightning will strike the same target only once.

It has never struck a second time.

Jiang Chen shared his discovery with Si Tu Yu, and Si Tu Yu also showed a hint of amazement.

She had never heard of such a thing.

But she cannot, like Jiang Chen, go and endure the Lightning.

Without damage transfer, even those raindrops alone would be enough to cause fatal injury to her.

The two continued onward; in the following days, whenever they encountered a thunderstorm cluster, Jiang Chen would voluntarily go to be struck by Lightning.

It wasn't for the experience; such a small amount of experience doesn't even catch Jiang Chen's eye.

Each time after being struck by Lightning, a faint heat flow remains, called Creation Lightning.

His sixth sense tells him that Creation Lightning is unusual; if accumulated to a certain amount, it may have some marvelous effect.

Thus, being trapped in the Fusishi Jie isn't entirely bad.
