Lightning Tribulation Spells

The Dragon Gate Sect's "Wangjiang Villa" is, to put it bluntly, a luxury riverside residence, specifically used to entertain distinguished guests.

When Lu Li and Xia Weijun arrived, Xiao Cha and Wan Qing were brewing a pot of Spirit Tea and chatting with the old man.

After they met, Xia Weiyin asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Why not stay a few more days?"

Nan Jinping smiled kindly and said, "Now that your matter is settled, I feel relieved. That's why I was thinking of going to Huzhou to make a visit."

The old man clearly wanted to expose the drug manufacturing plant, Xia Weiyin stopped trying to dissuade him once she heard that.

Lu Li said directly, "If you have any leads, please let me know. I'd be happy to destroy this Poison Den!"

"I am well aware of your preferences, young friend, and I will certainly inform you. Moreover, that Poison Den must be guarded by powerful figures; I, an old man, am no match for them."

"That's good. Oh, by the way, here's something for you."

Lu Li took a sandalwood box from Xiao Cha and handed it over with both hands.

Nan Jinping took it and opened it and saw that it was the flag with the word "righteousness".

At the time, Fan Chengxun used it to condense a "giant skeletal hand," which caused a great deal of trouble.

Upon seeing the flag, Nan Jinping was stunned for a moment, then her eyes reddened.

Xia Weiyin, fearing that Lu Li from overseas, might not know the details, whispered:

"Back then, foreigners committed all sorts of atrocities in the Divine Continent, including rape, plunder, and looting. Even churches were filled with children's bones. Righteous Warrior united and fought a fierce battle against guns and cannons with their own flesh and blood. Although they were defeated, the foreigners became more docile after that, only daring to rely on trade and plunder, and no longer building churches."

Lu Li slightly, recalling that his history textbook had mentioned that this event prevented the great powers from dividing Divine Continent.

It was won with human lives, which terrified the great powers.

Nan Jinping touched the flag and sighed softly:

"So many peasants died, but I, an old peasant, survived... I was too weak to move then, and the foreigners' cannon fired a dud."

The old man sighed, then seemed to remember something and quickly pulled a "book" out of his pocket.

"This old man has nothing of value, so I offer this as a congratulatory gift. Even True Master Li couldn't understand this book, only that it described a powerful spell called [Yuan Magnetic Divine Thunder]. Young friend Lu has exceptional comprehension; I'm sure you'll find it helpful."

Lu Li took it and saw that the book was not made of paper, but was actually an ancient "silk book".

It uses white silk as the writing material and records many seal script characters.

It's just that it's old and yellowed, and much of the text has been worn away, even the title is gone, making it look rather shabby.

Xia Weiyin quickly replied, "This was a gift from Guan Tianpei. Elder Nan cherishes it greatly, as it is a rare sight for him."

Looking at the silk scroll in Lu Li's hand, Nan Jinping said with a sigh:

"Back then, when the foreigners surrounded our fort, I fought desperately. But in the middle of the night, Governor Guan suddenly summoned me, gave me this book, saying it was of utmost importance and that I should take it out to find a successor..."

"I was only 19 that year, and I was so single-minded that I actually ran away with the books... Looking back now, it was clearly because Governor Guan didn't want me to lose my life in vain."

The old man was lost in his memories and slowly said:

"Later I figured it out, so I thought I should do more to avoid wasting the governor's good intentions... But after living for so many years I haven't accomplished anything, and the world is only getting worse."

At this moment, Lu Li, holding the book, stood there inexplicably stunned and speechless.

Xia Weiyin took the initiative to speak:

"Old Nan, don't underestimate yourself. Even the Jin Emperor praised you as a true hero, saying, 'No other general can match your courage; the foreigners are no match for you.'"

"I have no skills, all I have left is the courage to fight to the death."

Nan Jinping breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Giving the book to young friend Lu has made me feel much more relieved, as if a thousand-pound burden has been lifted... From now on, the Divine Continent rests on your shoulders."

The old man looked relaxed and indeed seemed much more at ease.

In his view, this book is more like a legacy, a responsibility.

Lu Li... was still in a daze.

Upon receiving the ancient "silk book," the Kunlun Mirror suddenly generated a suction force, drawing out many blue light spots from it.

This seemed to be the spiritual energy stored by Cultivator, but upon contact, one felt a tingling sensation throughout the body, as if struck by an electric shock.

On the surface of the Kunlun Mirror, a line of seal script characters immediately appeared:

[Deconstruction: Kunlun Sect's Lightning Tribulation Daoist technique - Yuan Magnetic Divine Thunder]

"Lightning Tribulation Daoist technique!"

Lu Li was startled! He had just "left his body," then came the "Manifestation," and then... the tribulation of lightning!

It was obvious that this was something extraordinary, and the Kunlun Mirror immediately played a video message in its mind.

It contains the most complex spell ever recorded.

This can be studied later. For now, Lu Li regained his senses and bowed to Nan Jinping with clasped hands.

"Thank you so much for your generous gift, elder! I will certainly live up to your expectations!"

"As long as you're useful."

Nan Jinping smiled with satisfaction, then looked at the several handsome men and women and said:

"To accompany each other on the path of spiritual practice is the most beautiful thing in the world. You two live your lives well; I'm taking my leave now."

The old man took his leave, not even allowing Lu Li's family to see him off, and then, with a whoosh, he vanished.

Several women looked at Lu Li, wondering why he had been in a daze just now.

Only Wan Qing, through her Spirit Refining Fetal Breathing, saw those blue light spots and speculated as to:

"Young master must have had a miraculous encounter."

"That's right, there's a rather powerful spell in this book."

As soon as Lu Li finished speaking, the "silk scroll" in his hand turned into ashes and vanished.

This scene demonstrates that the chilling blue light spot from before was indeed stored mental energy!

It's incredible that remnants still exist after hundreds or thousands of years!

Lu Li estimated that even if he used all his strength and stored it in a magic artifact, it might not last for more than a hundred years.

"A lightning tribulation spell... I'll wait and see!"

~~~~~~~~~~

Next, Lu Li naturally wanted to see the true form of the lightning tribulation spell.

He went to his study and began to relive the audio-visual message.

The first thing I looked at was the illustrated material, which described in detail how to shape the mind into... a coil?

Then you need to prepare a metal object, and similarly concentrate your mind on it to shape the coil.

"If you don't have any, you can use the Cultivator's own fingernails or hair. The 'Mental Energy Coil' instantly passes through a strong current, generating a strong force... Is it Electromagnetic Cannon?"

The more you look at it, the more it resembles an "Electromagnetic Cannon," but it's far more complex than that.

The spell was quite complicated. Lu Li first skimmed through it, then looked at the video footage.

The video is from a first-person perspective, and the protagonist is a man dressed in an ancient-style black robe.

Looking up at the sky, he saw a... spaceship hovering in the heavens?

The spaceship resembled a gigantic battleship, with countless cannons lit up on both sides, seemingly ready to fire a volley downwards.

But the person in the video simply held a copper coin and flicked it with their finger at the spaceship.

With a deafening roar, the copper coin pierced the air and flew out with a whooshing sound, the shockwave of which uprooted several large trees!

This was terrifying enough, but then the copper coin exploded into several massive air waves in the air, its speed increasing to an unbelievable level, and it was even vaporized into plasma by the high temperature generated by friction with the atmosphere.

But it maintained its form under the control of its mind, transforming into a red line that rushed into space and crashed into the spaceship!

The spaceship exploded and disintegrated instantly, its debris being pulled into the atmosphere by the planet's gravity, transforming into a dazzling shower of meteors...

Finally, the camera panned to mid-air, where Lu Li saw a man in a tall crown and black robe, his face radiating light.

A golden halo surrounded him, making him appear like Deity from mythology and literature. He gazed silently at Lu Li across countless times.

At that moment, the video abruptly stopped.

"This is the Yuan Magnetic Divine Thunder? It's far more than just Electromagnetic Cannon!"

Lu Li was deeply shocked:

"The strong forces of the internal and external magnetic fields are equivalent to a combination of a coilgun and a rechargeable gun! There's also electromagnetic secondary and multiple acceleration..."

"The coin's final speed exceeded the second cosmic velocity, which is why it was able to escape the planet and attack its target in space!"

"More than 30 times the Mach... just how terrifying the power must be! Not to mention the high temperature contained in the plasma state after vaporization, which is equivalent to a plasma weapon."

After the initial shock, Lu Li quickly focused his attention and carefully studied the lightning tribulation spell.

The second update will be a little later, around midnight.
