What If I Can't Die? - Chapter 601
601 East Continent (1)
He coiled a string of Buddhist prayer beads and said with a smile, “Isn’t this person going to the East Continent? Tell the Eight Limbed Snake there about this Great Dao Weapon. Doesn’t it want a Dharma treasure that matches itself very much? I have to give it a chance.”
“That’s good. We won’t dirty our feathers by killing others.”
Green Radish smiled.
“Let Lan Bao watch. If there’s a chance, it’s best if this treasure belongs to my Hundred Treasures Mountain.”
…
Song Shi stayed in the mansion for a day before Kang Lixun came again.
He had recovered from his external injuries and his face was still pale. At this moment, he was especially polite, afraid that Song Shi would beat him up again.
“Fellow… Fellow Daoist Song, Lord Su asked me to bring you to meet him.”
Facing Song Shi, Kang Lixun stuttered.
“Let’s go.”
Song Shi was not interested in scaring this guy anymore. He threw out the Life Dissipation Gourd and asked Kang Lixun to lead the way.
The latter sensed that the calabash was not simple and stole a glance. He did not ask further and led the way obediently.
The two of them flew out of the Eight Gates Immortal Abode and entered the place where the lightning gathered above the white clouds.
Both Kang Lixun and Song Shi had cultivated the Lightning Law and were like fish in water in the thunderclouds. They were not uncomfortable at all.
The most magical thing was that the Lightning Punishment Envoy token on Song Shi’s waist began to glow, emitting a fluctuation that seemed to be able to directly mobilize the surrounding lightning.
“Your token contains the power of the Heavenly Dao and can command the power of heavenly lightning. It can be used under special circumstances, such as in thunderclouds.”
Su Fu’s voice appeared. It was obvious that he had sensed Song Shi’s abnormality. He took the initiative to explain and revealed himself in the thundercloud, followed by more than ten immortals.
Song Shi cupped his fists. “Greetings, Lord Su.”
“Your position is a Lightning Punishment Envoy, so you can learn the Lightning Punishment Technique. Coupled with this token, you can control the lightning of the Nine Heavens to subdue demons. Of course, its power is related to the environment, your strength, and the level of the token.”
Su Fu continued to speak. During this time, he took another look at Song Shi’s calabash and did not show anything. However, the immortals behind him looked surprised.
Song Shi actually knew this information and pretended to understand it for the first time. He listened very seriously.
After telling Song Shi about the situation of the Thunder Punishment Order, Su Fu’s expression turned serious. “Song Shi, since you took office early, I will activate the Thunder Punishment authority for you in advance. I hope that you will be fair in the future and punish on behalf of the heavens, exterminating evil and demons, upholding righteousness, and raising the authority of the Immortal Court!”
“Punish on behalf of the heavens, slay evil, and destroy demons!”
The other Lightning Punishment Envoys shouted as well. Their voices shook the void like rolling thunder and were rather inspiring.
Su Fu took out his token. After activating it, the token on Song Shi’s waist flew up on its own. On it were two dazzling immortal words, Lightning Punishment. They triggered the rules of heaven and earth and a special pressure appeared.
This was the might of the heavens. In an instant, Song Shi felt that the surrounding world was affected by the token, especially the power of the Heavenly Lightning. It showed signs of commanding all the lightning in the world.
Amidst crackling sounds, dense lightning gathered towards the token. The token emitted dazzling white lightning and floated in front of Song Shi.
Su Fu shouted, “Song Shi, officially accept the order!”
Song Shi took the opportunity to grab it. The condensed lightning rushed towards his palm and quickly spread throughout his body, causing his hair and clothes to swell. He immediately looked dignified and noble.
Lightning circulated around his body like water. Song Shi’s muscles tensed up and he looked furious. He had transformed into the Thunder God.
“Song Shi, swear on the Heavenly Dao that you will never betray the Immortal Court for the rest of your life. Otherwise, you will be struck by lightning.”
Su Fu urged.
Song Shi swore as well. The moment he finished speaking, a powerful Heavenly Dao power locked onto him. For the first time, Song Shi felt that if he disobeyed the oath, he would immediately be killed.
“This is a real oath…”
He was shocked. He had never felt such a terrifying power above the Laws so clearly, especially since this power could easily crush him.
“After swearing, why aren’t you taking out your Lightning Punishment Sword and immortal armor?” Su Fu said.
With a thought from Song Shi, a huge sword and a set of silver armor flew out. The sword was held in his other hand, and the silver armor took the initiative to fly onto his body. It perfectly fused with the lightning, immediately making him look even more like the Thunder God.
At the same time, the mysterious and powerful Heavenly Dao power dissipated. As long as he did not rebel, he would not appear again.
“The Lightning Punishment Token has been activated. The Lightning Punishment Technique and the Lightning Control Technique are contained in the token. You can comprehend them yourself. Now, follow Envoy Kang and the others to the East Continent to patrol.”
Su Fu put away the token and quickly retracted the powerful aura on his body. He casually arranged for Song Shi’s next actions.
“Yes!” Song Shi replied simply.
Su Fu said to Kang Lixun, “There are so many monsters in the East Continent. Recently, there have been many movements. You have to suppress those that you should suppress in time to avoid a huge disaster.”
“I’ll listen to the Immortal Monarch’s arrangements.” Kang Lixun replied respectfully.
“Go on.”
Su Fu waved his hand and turned into a bolt of lightning to escape. He did not go to the East Continent with him.
More than ten immortals left, but only Kang Lixun stayed.
Song Shi was stunned. It turned out that these guys were here to see him take over. They left after the ceremony, and none of them were willing to get to know him?
Am I that unpopular?
They must be too busy to exchange pleasantries with him.
He couldn’t help but look at Kang Lixun. “Are they all very busy?”
“This… should be the case. I heard that there have been demons causing trouble recently. The Immortal Monarchs are also taking action.” Kang Lixun replied.
“Is that so? That’s good. Let’s go. I’m quite curious about the East Continent.” Song Shi smiled.
“This is the map of the East Continent. You can take a look.”
Kang Lixun pointed his finger and light circulated. A vast and boundless area appeared.
Other than an irregular continent in the entire East Continent, there were also dense islands and a wider sea. There were various immortal sects, immortals, and various demons and ghosts on the islands of the continent. There were many of them.
“Don’t you have a complete map or something?” Song Shi asked.
The map that Kang Lixun had opened was too small.
“The Lightning Punishment Token has been activated. There’s a map of the entire Nine Continents that can be within a mile.” Kang Lixun said helplessly.
This guy didn’t know anything and he still had to explain patiently. However, the other party had just beaten him up and he felt uncomfortable.
“Oh, I forgot about this.”
Song Shi reacted. Previously, this token had not been activated and there was nothing. He had thought that it was just a status symbol. He did not expect it to have such a function.
He immediately sat on the Life Dissipation Gourd and injected his thoughts into the token. An eight-trigram diagram appeared. There were a total of eight options. There were various functions written inside that could be touched with his thoughts.
The eight options were the Immortal Map, Message, Mission, Light Punishment, Treasure Vault, Myriad Techniques, Space, and Salary. Among them was the map he wanted.
When his thoughts touched the Immortal Map, it immediately became a map. In it, his location was a dot that wrote the contents of the Immortal Court’s Cloud Sea Eight Gates Immortal Abode.
After touching the communication option, they immediately entered a starry sky. Stars flickered inside and there were stars around them that were filled with lightning. They were the names of the Lightning Punishment Envoys, including Kang Lixun and Su Fu.
