Alternate World: I Started With Two SSS Templates - Chapter 491
491 Sea of Battle
It was time to eat!
In the midst of the inexplicable fear, Li Rui sat at the head of the table with a smile on his face. He looked down at the hydra that was wriggling and he salivated from his mouth.
It didn’t seem to be a terrifying giant hydra at the peak of the earth-rank, but a tiny squirmish-looking octopus that was about to be eaten raw now. He couldn’t wait to take a big bite.
He picked up a blade and stabbed one of Orochi’s hydra heads. Then, he chewed carefully and tasted the deliciousness of the hydra head.
!!
The flame head had a little spiciness, and the hatred and fear it harbored were perfect for Li Rui.
Orochi had eight heads. This Feast of Fear would bring him the biggest advancement yet!
After eating the beast, Li Rui then gradually disappeared into the darkness.
Li Rui didn’t exactly eat the beast, he only ate the souls of the heads and each soul was turned into food for his cultivation.
Li Rui held his stomach and looked uncomfortable, but he still had a smile on his face. “D*mn, no matter how long it takes for me to cultivate, I can only eat my fill by working with you.”
The time before that was when he ate one hydra head in the battle of Guangzhou. The last time was during the National High School League. These two times, Lin Xuan and Li Rui worked together. In the end, Li Rui only managed to barely hold on. He thought that it was the beginning of his powers flourishing, but he did not expect that after leaving Lin Xuan, he would never get to experience the same thing ever again…
Ridiculous.
Lin Xuan forced a smile. He raised his head and looked at the clouds of the heavenly tribulation in the sky. They had not dispersed, and they had even begun to expand their range because they could not sense the life aura of the eight-headed hydra. It was likely that the last lightning bolt would strike down soon.
Sure enough, it was as if the clouds knew that someone was interfering with the process of the heavenly punishment. With that, the clouds moved towards Li Rui and were ready to attack him for interfering. However, it only prepared a bolt of lightning as punishment. Li Rui had already eaten his fill and his ability to move was limited. Lin Xuan could only helplessly prepare to accept the lightning bolt’s fate.
He originally wanted to throw Li Rui out directly to avoid accidental injury, but after thinking about it, he was afraid that the heaven-rank powerhouses would come and find him in his weak state to kill him.
In an instant, a terrifying thunder resounded. It was the heavenly punishment’s ninth bolt, the strongest and the longest. It took the longest time to charge up. In an instant, it cut through the air and tore the sky apart, leaving behind an echo.
It shot directly toward Li Rui like a long spear. Li Rui’s face was ugly, he wanted to escape, but he couldn’t.
Lin Xuan’s eyes narrowed, and he focused all his attention on his friend. Just as the lightning was about to reach him, his body moved slightly and intercepted the lightning in mid-air. The white lightning seemed to want to destroy all evil in its way!
In an instant, lightning penetrated Lin Xuan’s entire body. It was not just his body, but also his soul. The sound of thunder kept reverberating in the space of his sea of consciousness. Lin Xuan’s main consciousness fell into a state of shock. All of his thoughts burst in fragments, and not a single stray thought was left.
Lin Xuan’s body was still fine. He had already cultivated the innate Lightning Dao, and now that he had received the heavenly punishment, he could experience the white lighting for himself. He had kept a small portion of it previously, and while he knew how powerful the heavenly punishment was, it was still not enough to fully master it.
This was the best opportunity for Lin Xuan to master the thunder of heavenly punishment. Lin Xuan was the one who had fate on his side. With that one strike, he seemed to have gained some enlightenment from it. Lightning does not disappear, but is stored in the cells of the body, and some of them are turned into nerve electricity.
If one did not know how to control it, these lightning currents would be like water without a root and would slowly disappear. However, Lin Xuan, who had mastered the power of lightning, could control the low-level power of lightning to charge the thunder from the heavenly punishment, and finally, master the heavenly punishment of lightning.
After being struck by lightning, Lin Xuan moved his entire body and found that his body’s functions had been enhanced. His nerve reaction speed had increased. The effects of this wave of lightning body refinement was successful!
Li Rui sat at the side. Once Lin Xuan had recovered, he smiled bitterly. “You’ve finally recovered.”
Lin Xuan turned to look at him. His whole body was pitch black, and his hair was all frizzled. It was obvious that he had been struck by lightning as well. However, it was not the main lightning that attacked him, it was the electric currents that ran out of Lin Xuan’s body.
“This wave of lightning is really powerful. Hahaha.”
Lin Xuan was very happy with this slight increase in strength. Even though there was power flowing over from the three countries at every moment to improve cultivation, that was only to increase the upper limit of his strength, physique, and speed. Now, he was using the lightning to strengthen his body’s functions. The two did not conflict with each other, and they even complimented each other.
“It’s time to save Su Huaizhou. Let’s go and see how she’s doing.”
Li Rui pouted. He had become fat after eating Orochi. He was uncomfortable and bloated. Alas, he could only slowly digest it with time. He would go back to Taixia and digest the meal as soon as possible so that he would not be a burden outside.
He couldn’t wait to go back to Taixia Country with Alice and the others. As for the Xiaori Country, Lin Xuan and Zhang Ningtian would take care of it without them.
“Alright, let’s go.”
With that thought, Lin Xuan grabbed Li Rui and disappeared in a flash of lightning.
Because of Orochi’s, Lin Xuan’s departure, and the disappearance of the heavenly tribulation, the black clouds in the sky gradually dissipated. Rays of sunlight eagerly shone on the sea. First, a ray of sunlight penetrated through the layers of black clouds and landed on the surface of the sea, and then more sunlight descended shortly after.
Birds flew over from a distance and stopped on Orochi’s corpse floating on the sea. Under the dusky setting sun and the salty sea water, they pecked at the meat of the Orochi bit by bit. It was effortless to peck the meat off.
After Li Rui advanced to earth-rank, the Feast of Fear that he used was now completely different.
The last time they fought, there was a large amount of benefits from Orochi’s head, so it still had some value. However, this time, Orochi’s body was broken down and had no value at all. Therefore, Lin Xuan left without any hesitation.
The storm over the ocean had completely calmed, leaving behind only a peaceful and quiet scene.
How were things in Wuhua Town?
