The night was filled with stars, and in a place like this, stargazing offered a unique sense of peace and serenity.
However, my mind was preoccupied with many thoughts, and without being able to articulate them, an inexplicable restlessness gnawed at me.
Just then, I suddenly noticed the stars in the sky quickly being obscured by dark clouds.
The weather in this place changed almost without warning.
But seeing this, a smile spread across my face. Without a word, I pulled Lin Chun up, "Let's go!"
Although Lin Chun didn't know what was happening, he followed behind me.
The two of us made our way towards a large mountain in the distance.
Under normal circumstances, it would have taken an ordinary person half a day to climb this mountain. But with all our might, we reached the summit in less than ten minutes.
From the mountaintop, the view was exceptionally expansive. At this point, Lin Chun also noticed the change in the sky, and a look of excitement appeared on his face.
"If I'm not mistaken, it will start raining soon, followed by thunder. We need to seize this opportunity to activate your attributes!" I said seriously.
Hearing this, Lin Chun's expression turned grave, "I understand!"
Indeed, not long after, lightning appeared in the sky, and then the sound of thunder roared from above.
Streaks of lightning descended from the heavens, igniting several trees in the vicinity.
At this moment, a bright bolt of lightning shot down from the sky.
"Now!" I shouted, grabbing Lin Chun's shoulder and throwing him upwards with all my strength.
The lightning descending from the sky directly struck Lin Chun's body.
Lin Chun, mid-air, let out a heart-wrenching scream.
I was stunned. Could it be that he couldn't withstand it and was directly struck dead by the lightning?
Lin Chun fell from the sky. I quickly stepped forward, caught him steadily, and laid him down beside me.
At this moment, residual arcs of electricity were still flickering on Lin Chun's body, but I could sense that he was not seriously injured.
Much of his skin was charred black from the lightning strikes, which was a shocking sight.
Fortunately, his life was not in danger.
However, there was no better way to induce lightning. This method, though undeniably crude, was highly effective.
Lin Chun lay on the ground, and I could clearly feel the lightning coursing through his body. If my predictions were correct, he was undergoing a baptism of lightning.
Once he endured this painful moment, the power of lightning within him would be activated.
A moment later, his expression turned agonizing, and his entire body began to convulse uncontrollably.
I understood this kind of pain all too well.
The power of lightning was currently transforming the Mu Shen power within his body. Once the conversion was complete, he would be able to wield the power of lightning!
At this time, the lightning in the sky showed no signs of abating, continuing to strike down relentlessly.
To prevent him from being struck again, I picked Lin Chun up and ran down the mountain.
Just then, a massive flash of lightning suddenly appeared in the sky, its brilliance almost blinding, illuminating the darkness as if it were daytime.
A bolt of purple lightning descended from the sky, hurtling towards us.
The lightning moved far faster than I could have imagined. By the time I reacted, it was too late to dodge.
In the nick of time, my decision was to throw Lin Chun away!
The moment Lin Chun was thrown, the lightning struck my body directly.
Instantly, intense pain coursed through every inch of my being.
This pain was almost identical to the pain I felt when I first encountered fire, perhaps even more severe.
The lightning power was surging into my body.
Seeing this, I was beside myself.
I had already activated the power of fire, and these lightning bolts seemed intent on further transforming my attributes.
If this were to happen, the clash between fire and lightning within my body would cause immense destruction.
At that point, even with nine lives, I likely wouldn't survive.
I channeled the Mu Shen power with all my might, attempting to repel the lightning.
But it was clear that I had underestimated the ferocity of this purple lightning.
The lightning burrowed into my body, even beginning to devour the fire power within me…
An unbearable pain emanated from the depths of my mind, as if countless blades were flaying my flesh and scraping my bones in every part of my body…
I gritted my teeth, trying to maintain consciousness, and desperately willed the Mu Shen power to move.
But I still underestimated the horror of the pain.
Soon, I felt my body losing strength, plunging into a state of absolute fatigue.
Then, I lost consciousness…
