Panic

The "will of heaven and earth" contained in thunder has an exceptionally good effect on tempering the Divine Soul.

Lu Li had only uttered a few words of reflection when the damage to his Divine Soul was rapidly healed, more than twice as fast as before.

This is the result of increased Divine Soul strength, leading to a simultaneous improvement in tolerance and recovery ability.

With such remarkable results, Lu Li was naturally quite satisfied.

If things continue like this, we'll soon be able to truly undergo the tribulation of lightning, and that's the most important thing!

The fact that Xiao Yu is pregnant could come to light at any time, so we must have the strength to protect ourselves.

There's also the Emperor from another world who's been preparing to undergo his tribulation for a long time, so I need to break through even faster.

Fortunately, our Mother Star provided assistance, narrowing the gap between us and the enemy. Now we just need to proceed step by step.

By this time, Lu Li had rested enough, so he set off for Atlanta.

This is the ninth largest metropolitan area of Star Alliance Country. Just as President Deng Han and others had predicted, Lu Li indeed arrived here first.

However, after arriving above the city, Lu Li did not carry out a large-scale demolition.

Instead, it manifested a mental image 220 meters long and commanded: [Activate the storm!]

With the surge in Divine Soul strength, cultivation level will inevitably improve accordingly. Divine Ability abilities that previously required the consumption of karmic energy to activate can now be used directly!

Suddenly, the three-headed Demon Dragon flapped its wings, creating a black vortex.

The cyclone roared and spun violently, its wind force increasing rapidly, soon engulfing the clouds and transforming into a super hurricane.

Annihilation pushed its wings again, propelling this man-made catastrophe toward Atlanta.

The roar resounded through the heavens and the earth, tearing apart the buildings on the entire street and sending them flying into the sky, along with the land and cars, becoming part of the hurricane.

Most of the people in the city had left, but many remained, clinging to a glimmer of hope, as well as bandits taking advantage of the chaos.

They were swept up in the hurricane and pulverized into pieces.

Lu Li ignored it and went to Lake Lanier, which was not far away, to begin extracting Spiritual Vein.

Of course, the forging of flying swords would not be neglected either.

After the strength of the Divine Soul increased dramatically, the difficulty of refining the flying sword also dropped sharply.

The Body Illumination from behind Lu Li's head had increased by 30%, and the flow and quality of his "Golden Mind" had both improved by 30%.

The efficiency of refining the flying sword naturally increases greatly, and impurities are constantly squeezed out from the blade, turning into blue fireflies that fly wildly.

Five minutes later, the Kunlun Mirror extracted 1,000 units of spiritual energy.

Lu Li immediately slipped away and headed to his next target.

His movements were constantly being captured by spy satellites, and the Star Alliance Country leadership fully expected him to head to "Hampton Roads".

It has the world's largest naval base and shipyard, and it's not far away, making it a very suitable target no matter how you look at it.

In particular, the presence of nuclear weapons depots made it convenient for the Star Alliance Country to plant nuclear bombs with a yield of tens of millions of tons, just waiting for Lu Li to arrive.

But Lu Li wouldn't come; instead, he ran around randomly along a strange path and even tried to disappear into the dark clouds.

He was drawing Spiritual Vein while undergoing Lightning Refinement.

For him, these two things were more important; destroying the Star Alliance Country was just a side effect.

So in the days that followed, Lu Li traveled at his own pace, following the Spiritual Vein and lightning, casually destroying the major cities along the way.

By the second day, the people of Blue Star had realized that he had his own intentions, especially his actions of searching for the dark clouds, which were quite conspicuous.

This move baffled people from other countries, but the Xia Country generally understood it:

[This is clearly preparing for a tribulation of lightning! Legend has it that if one successfully transcends the tribulation, one will ascend to heaven and become an immortal.]

[So, Lu Li really is following the path of cultivation?]

[Of course, even flying swords have appeared.]

[I work for the provincial Daoist Association. Last year, the state already sent specialists to study Daoist cultivation texts.]

[And the fist technique he used to sink the warship the day before yesterday was also a power-generating technique from the whip fist in Chinese martial arts.]

Netizens in Xia Country enthusiastically discuss extraordinary powers, fantasizing that one day they too can "attain enlightenment."

But no matter how much Lu Li neglects his duties, he is undeniably destroying the city!

In just two days, seven cities were razed to the ground.

Birmingham, Richmond, Phoenix, Columbia, Greenville, Charlotte...

These once-famous, bustling cities have been reduced to ruins, appearing one after another in the news.

The Star Alliance Country has suffered a devastating blow, and while people around the world are secretly pleased, a growing number are also beginning to panic!

Lu Li can indeed destroy cities at will without any restraint; no one can stop him, and no one dares to stop him!

Even the Star Alliance Country have abandoned the idea of conventional military confrontation and have not sent any troops in recent days.

Other countries didn't even speak up, fearing they might provoke this menacing star.

People suddenly realized that the only thing that could restrain Lu Li was his own... conscience???

Obviously, this is absolutely unacceptable.

The survival of all humanity and the continuation of civilization cannot be treated so carelessly.

Both the public and the higher-ups realized that things couldn't continue like this, and that Lu Li had to be restrained.

That's the truth, but when you actually try to do it, you realize... you're completely powerless.

Humans no longer have the ability or the right to restrict Lu Li.

No known weapon can kill him.

He will not be bound by any morality or rules, and any confrontation that crosses the line will lead to unpredictable and disastrous consequences.

The best course of action right now, to put it nicely, is to remain unchanged in the face of all changes.

To put it bluntly, they hope that after Lu Li destroys the Star Alliance Country, things will calm down...

~~~~~~~~~

Human nature is fickle, and people's hearts are easily changed. The trends on the internet are always changing in an instant, and Lu Li has experienced this deeply.

On the first day, the internet was full of cheers and encouragement.

By the second day, more and more people were begging him to stop.

By the third day, all I felt was fear and apprehension.

This is most evident in the collective will and power that has been gathered together.

The merits were reduced to only 500 million; the remaining 5 billion became "negative energy," which was easily destroyed.

It opened its three large mouths and devoured everything. In addition, after experiencing nine thunderous baptisms in the past three days, its body size has reached 250 meters and its wingspan has exceeded 500 meters!

Correspondingly, Lu Li's Divine Soul also solidified to its limit.

At that moment, he was Divine Soul out of his mind on the beach.

No matter how the sea breeze blows, the Divine Soul remains unmoved, as if it had a physical form.

"It's time to lay down all defenses and face the thunder head-on."

Lu Li gazed at a giant thunderstorm cloud hundreds of kilometers away and made a decision.

Meanwhile, many high-ranking officials of the Star Alliance Country were cursing wildly:

Why aren't you at Hampton Roads yet? It's right next to you! There are two aircraft carriers docked there!

Lu Li's location is not far south of Hamptons.

He'll definitely go over since it's so close, but only after he's finished with his business.

At this moment, Lu Li rode his Divine Soul into the thunderclouds over the sea.

Without the protection of the mind or the Indestructible Will,"the Divine Soul will face the thunder alone.
