Chapter 93: The Son of the Heavenly Dao
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Silent lightning bolts appeared in the sky like chains coiling around Mo Wuhui.
It locked him in place and bombarded his body continuously.
“Whoa, another guy struck by lightning! Eh? Another?”
After a long time, all the lightning disappeared instantly while Mo Wuhui collapsed on the ground with a bang.
Electric arcs were dancing all over his body. He was emitting steam, and his silver hair stood up.
Mo Wuhui looked at the sky with the expression of someone reconsidering his life. He was absolutely shocked.
He had been restrained by a mysterious power just now. He could not move at all, and even his magic power was suppressed.
His entire body was exposed to the lightning as if he was running around naked.
He had been electrocuted to something crispy on the outside but tender inside. If not for his Tribulation realm cultivation and the fact that he possessed the Everlasting Forbidden Body, he would have definitely died.
He had also fused with a saint bone in his body. He would probably be burnt to ashes by the terrifying power contained in the lightning.
‘The Everlasting Forbidden Body was an extremely unusual physique.
It could be considered an undying body. There was no magic power in this world that could completely destroy this body.
However, this was also a cursed body. He would never break through the Tribulation realm, much less ascend to become an immortal.
‘Those patrolling disciples crept over and took a closer look at Mo Wuhui.
“He’s still alive.”
“He’s not even dead yet. This old uncle is not simple!”
“But his injuries aren’t light. What should we do? Go and ask our Eldest Senior Brother. He’s experienced in such matters!”
“Eldest Senior Brother isn’t here. He just brought Senior Brother Ji and Senior Brother Su to town to catch ghosts last night. He’s not back yet!”
“What do we do? Master is still in seclusion. Why don’t we ask Senior Brother Gu? He must be more experienced than us at being struck by lightning!”
Gu Yuqi was already one of the sect master’s personal disciples, so these outer sect disciples had to address him respectfully as their senior brother.
“alright, let’s bring this uncle up the mountain first and see if we can save him!” A few disciples carried Mo Wuhui as if they were carrying an explosive package, afraid that they would be implicated and struck by lightning.
Therefore, they practically ran all the way up the mountain. Once they arrived at the top, they could not wait to throw him onto the empty ground. One of the disciples ran to find Gu Yuqi.
Mo Wuhui felt depressed. He was the formidable old freak in the Tribulation realm with an undying body. When had he ever been in such a sorry state?
He was thrown there like a corpse.
However, as soon as he arrived at the mountaintop, Mo Wuhui sensed the dense Dao fate and a special aura that filled the air.
“This is… the Ancient Dao Fortune Tree!” Mo Wuhui instantly confirmed that this unique Dao fate aura belonged to the Ancient Dao Fortune Tree.
He was thrilled.
“The Qingyun Sect actually has the Ancient Dao Fortune Tree. No wonder a peerless prodigy like Li Yu could appear! And I do have an unexpected gain today! Wait for me to destroy…”
As he was thinking about it, another bolt of lightning appeared out of thin air.
Mo Wuhui enjoyed another round of electrocuting therapy.
His entire body jerked violently as his old face was electrocuted to the point his mouth and eyes were about to fall apart and become half paralyzed.
“Gasp… It’s a good thing we let go in time. Otherwise, we would have been implicated!”
“What has this old uncle done to deserve this!”
“This is too tragic!”
“This time, it’s hopeless!” The disciples who had just carried Mo Wuhui up the mountain could not help but gasp in fear.
This uncle simply has a lightning-absorbing physique. Getting hit twice in a short while is a miracle.
Mo Wuhui lay on the ground as if he had nothing left to live for.
However, he finally found the reason why he was struck by lightning.
As long as he thought of killing—no, to be precise, if he thinks of killing anyone from the Qingyun Sect, he would be struck by lightning.
Did the Qingyun Sect save the universe before?
Or is this sect founded by the son of the Heavenly Dao?
haven’t even done anything yet. Just the thought of it is enough to make me get struck by lightning.
Do you have to be so protective?
Mo Wuhui was severely depressed.
He had lived for tens of thousands of years, and this was the first time he experienced such a strange thing.
What else can I do? This is simply against the rules.
Even if he had an undying body, he could not defy the arrangements of the Heavenly Dao.
“Could it be because of that Great Dao mantra!” After Mo Wuhui thought carefully, he suddenly thought of a possibility.
‘When he was young, he had once heard of a legend.
A good man accumulates merit and does good.
‘The person who had the thought to harm him was struck by lightning and died.
On the other hand, when Li Yu spoke the truth of the Great Dao, it caused the Heavenly Dao to resonate with him. He was credited for educating the commoners. He might even have accumulated the highest merit.
It even benefited the people around him and the entire sect.
Therefore, anyone who schemed against Li Yu and his sect would be punished by the heavens.
Although it sounded unbelievable, it was the only explanation at the moment.
It can’t be that Li Yu is really the son of the Heavenly Dao, right?
‘Then he might just explode on the spot.
As he thought of this possibility, Mo Wuhui suddenly wanted to verify it. He had a wicked thought.
I knew it!
Bolts of lightning that were several times thicker than before struck down from above.
A total of five bolts of lightning struck him.
Gu Yuqi, who had just rushed over, felt a familiar pain when he saw this scene.
“It’s too tragic. I was struck three times in a row, and this time, I was struck by five at once!”
“Eh, do you think this uncle is transcending the tribulation? I remember one would encounter the baptism of the lightning tribulation once their cultivation reached the Tribulation realm?”
“No way. I heard that tribulations are all extremely cool. He looks a little miserable here!”
“Tsk tsk, the main problem is that he isn’t dead yet!”
Gu Yuqi looked at the uncle, who was constantly struck by lightning in surprise. Although the familiar pain made him frown, he felt relieved, for some reason, as if his mind had suddenly been balanced.
Compared to this old uncle, what he had encountered that day was simply child’s play.
‘The five silent bolts of lightning lasted for a long while before they disappeared again. This time, Mo Wuhui was electrocuted to the point the corners of his mouth were spitting white foam.
‘The wave just now was really ferocious. It was simply countless times more powerful than before.
Mo Wuhui almost died on the spot.
Indeed, I can’t be stubborn. I already guessed the truth, so why should I be the one doing the experiment?
Mo Wuhui really wanted to slap himself, but his hand was a little numb.
However, after the divine lightning therapy sessions, Mo Wuhui’s heart was finally clear from any killing intent.
The Qingyun Sect could not be messed with. Who could even afford to offend Li Yu!
He no longer had the intention to destroy the Qingyun Sect. His heart was almost as pure as a child’s, and the heavens and earth could prove it.
He only had one thought now, and it was to let the man who hired him have a taste of being struck by lightning multiple times. The more ferocious, the better.
However, Mo Wuhui did not know that that fellow had already socially died on the spot. He was in a worse state than him.
