Boom! Boom! Boom!
Within the thick dark clouds, several bolts of lightning like gigantic silver pythons suddenly tore through the sky and hurtled down, heading straight toward Chen Xuan below.
At the sight, Chen Xuan moved his palm slightly. A silver figure suddenly appeared in the air, directly blocking those terrifying bolts of lightning.
Violent currents flickered continuously over the figure, yet they had no effect on it whatsoever.
