Swordsman the Wanderer
Ch 263's. The Lightning Canyon Region
The young Kuurcaci, Jepe and Zhang En introduced themselves to each other and looked like they had been friends for a long time. When Zhang En left, Jepe insisted on having Zhang En look for him when he returned to visit the City, he promised to treat Zhang En with wine brewed specifically for the dwarf race.
Zhang En replied and said that he would definitely do so when he came to Dwarven City.
Leaving that City, Zhang En continued his journey by passing through the Lightning Canyon Region after that, he would only reach the sphere of influence of the beastmen tribe after passing through the Lightning Canyon region.
Different from the Fairy Forest and the Dwarf City, the territory of the Lightning Canyon was one of the extremely dangerous regions that existed in the Wind Eyes Continent that spanned over a hundred meters in breadth.
As night fell, the air above the canyon would be filled with naturally formed lightning. Even the God Hermit experts could not escape and were severely injured upon coming into contact with the lightning that was within the canyon.
Sometimes, even during the day, lightning strikes hit the region.
Undoubtedly, there are other routes that allow the visitors to detour away from the canyon to enter the territory of the Beast Race, however, it will add at least a half-month journey.
The scorching sun shone brightly as Zhang En arrived at that place.
Even so, on the extremely dangerous journey this time, Zhang En used the Dragon Physique body and raised the Demon Wings on his back, instead, he even performed a soul transformation with the aim of accelerating his flying speed as well as being wary of the lightning that was snatching in front of him.
Zhang En then leaped into the air and shot out, his silhouette instantly turning into a beam of light, gliding like an arrow.
The wind roared very fiercely past his ears, the shrubs of trees and flowers became blurred before his eyes.
In a short time, Zhang En was already in the middle of the canyon and reached the center of the Lightning Canyon region.
At this time, a sudden change occurred. A rumbling dark cloud that stretched from a height of a thousand meters suddenly appeared in the clear sky, the sound of an explosion was heard as a terrifying lightning strike meandered across the Lightning gorge like a raging snake.
The tremendous pressure from the destructive force plunged down from the top of the canyon.
Staring foolishly at the sudden change in weather, Zhang En could not help but grumble at "Fucking driver ...!"
A terrifying strength and pressure continued to suppress the canyon, making Zhang En hang in the middle of the lightning canyon, he saw there was no way to break through to the front and could not retreat backwards.
Depressed by the sudden pressure of lightning, Zhang En shouted and flew straight up. As his feet touched the top of the canyon, several lightning strikes containing an enormous destructive force shot out rushing towards Zhang En.
Clenching his fists, Zhang Eb punched out a line of lightning aimed at him.
DUAAARR!!!
Explosions were heard from above the canyon.
Zhang En was thrown down, a feeling of pain and numbness spread throughout his body while the huge rocks and trees around him were crushed into dust.
Zhang En felt a sense of shock and saw that the power of nature was truly terrifying.
If he did not possess the strength of the Dragon Physique upon the collision with the lightning just now, he would probably suffer severe injuries even die.
Regardless of the situation he was in at the moment, it had instead ignited a battle desire within him.
This time, several lightning bolts headed towards Zhang En at once. Clenching his fists tightly, he punched out like he had done before.
DUAARR!!!
A dazzling light exploded as the temperature of the hot air around him turned into a tornado.
Similar to a war god, Zhang En drove out wave after wave of lightning even as the lightning got stronger, it only pushed Zhang En's determination harder.
At a certain moment, Zhang En discovered that every time he fended off a wave of lightning, it actually helped to forge his physique and make his body stronger.
A few hundred meters away outside the territory of Lightning Canyon, a group of human-shaped beastmen Race that numbered in excess of hundreds stood on top of the peak. Seeing the mighty bands of lightning crackling over the Lightning Canyon, each of their faces turned pale
“Hey, everyone see !!” One of the other beastmen shouted, pointing somewhere above the canyon.
All the beastmen looked in the direction their comrades pointed.
The lightning there was much denser compared to other places within the canyon. Moreover, they seemed to see a blurry-looking figure moving about.
“This, this can't be real, right?!”
“Obviously no, how is it possible? It couldn't possibly be real, how could humans withstand the lightning here! ” One of them shook his head, "We are too far away from the Lightning Canyon, no one can tell the truth."
All the beastmen nodded in agreement.
Moreover, even some of the Great Elders of their beastmen tribe did not dare to use their physical bodies to grapple with the clumpy lightning from that canyon.
After watching a little longer, the group then left, shaking their heads and continuing on.
Above the Lightning Canyon, Zhang En shouted loudly after smashing all the lightning strikes.
At first, his body was completely numb after being struck by this lightning, the pain penetrated his nerves, but now, the pain and numbness were gone, leaving only a very comfortable sensation.
Those lightning strikes felt as if they were massaging his body and purifying his Qi
About an hour later, the lightning cloud disappeared. The sky above was as bright and calm as before.
Watching the thundercloud already vanish, there was disappointment in Zhang En's eyes. He had not expected the lightning phenomenon that appeared to end so quickly.
Time continued to flow and the Lightning Cloud reappeared 5 minutes later. Zhang En made use of his current state to forge his body.
Zhang En had several times had destroyed the lightning strikes that targeted him, he knew that every time the lightning dissipated, the newly re-assembled lightning clouds continuously and targeted him again and again.
As night fell, the thunder and lightning bolts that boomed and flashed in the canyon were several times stronger than during the day, the lightning ribbons now thickened like pythons, emitting oppression and death.
The menacing deadly aura could be felt as loyal as even outside the canyon, exerting intense pressure on the passing experts as they swiftly twisted away from the canyon.
The night passed quickly, and the rising sun immediately peered over the horizon.
After clashing with lightning for one night and one day, Zhang En did not feel tired, in fact, his body was currently filled with an overwhelming amount of energy.
After all day and night fighting the lightning, Zhang En noticed that there was a tiny thread energy that had pure energy within his dantian that continuously formed his dragon physique.
Suddenly, Zhang En felt the Dragon Pearl in his brows trembling slightly.
"this ... ?!"
A few lightning strikes emerged from above aimed at Zhang En at this moment, but all of the lightning was absorbed by the Dragon Pearl, which was the result, which was then refined into pure lightning energy that was integrated into Zhang En's dragon body.
Zhang En was really surprised.
'What happened ?!'
In a state of still daze, another wave of dozens of dastardly lightning strikes came at him, and just like before, all the lightning was swallowed up by the Dragon Pearl, it was converted into pure lightning energy and channeled into Zhang En's body.
Out of surprise, Zhang En became dumbfounded.
However, he immediately realized that the lightning energy flowing into his body was much purer after being transformed by the Dragon Pearl, which he had been given, and it made itself easier to absorb that lightning and the effect he got was several times better.
