Five Elements Thunder Spirit Body

"Meow, meow..."

Little Tabby Cat sprang from Fairy Aunt's arms and bared his teeth at Lin Shisan.

Only after confirming that his Azure Spirit Fruit was unharmed did he rein in the urge to transform and murder someone.

"Meow, meow..."

Little Tabby Cat leaped again without his paws touching the ground.

Teeth bared, he lunged at Li Qingfeng.

If that bite landed, the result would certainly be horrific, because he was aiming for Li Qingfeng's neck.

"Senior Brother Lin..."

Li Qingfeng's face turned deathly pale.

He could not even run, cowed by Little Tabby Cat's spiritual pressure.

Watching Little Tabby Cat's jaws descend, he could only plead desperately with Lin Shisan.

"Don't kill him."

As Lin Shisan spoke, he stepped in front of Little Tabby Cat.

Whether Fairy Aunt had signaled him or Lin Shisan had managed to build some affection with Little Tabby Cat was unclear.

Little Tabby Cat obliged him and really did stop short of biting.

Just then, another bolt of lightning struck from the sky.

Another Azure Spirit Fruit fell from the trees Li Qingfeng was responsible for.

After a moment's hesitation, Li Qingfeng threw everything he had into it and finally caught the Azure Spirit Fruit.

Seeing this, Little Tabby Cat merely gave him a remarkably human glance before returning to Fairy Aunt's arms to enjoy himself again.

"Junior Sister, not everyone you brought is completely useless."

The languid, mature beauty hovering in the air not far from the orchard had witnessed the entire exchange.

The ice-sculpture beauty beside her remained as motionless as an ice sculpture, though her eyes turned toward Lin Shisan.

"Give him a try. Perhaps this dark-skinned boy will suit your taste."

The ice-sculpture beauty, Junior Sister Xue, still said nothing.

"Master said there's still no cure for the five elements thunder spirit body."

"The only way to resolve it is to find a furnace cauldron and slowly transfer it."

"If you like him, take him yourself. Don't drag me into it."

The ice-sculpture beauty finally spoke.

Her voice was just like her-cold and chilling.

Then she glanced at Lin Shisan and leaped away through the air, heading into the rumbling thunder and lightning.

"You little brat, blind to a kind heart. Sooner or later, you'll regret it."

The languid beauty rolled her eyes.

Then she, too, looked toward Lin Shisan.

At that moment, he was collecting Azure Spirit Fruits amid the lightning with effortless ease.

Among the six servants, Lin Shisan did not have the highest cultivation, but he was unquestionably the fastest and steadiest at collecting Azure Spirit Fruits.

"Oh..."

"This dark-skinned boy really has some ability. Could he also have the one-in-ten-thousand five elements thunder spirit body?"

"But that doesn't quite fit. He has no Dao Seed. He was born with a false spiritual root."

"Master said a five elements thunder spirit body always comes with a high-grade Dao Seed. Are my eyes playing tricks on me, or have I missed something?"

"Junior Sister, your senior sister will see this good deed through and test whether this dark-skinned boy truly has a five elements thunder spirit body."

"Go!"

The languid beauty extended her right hand, palm out.

She traced five beautiful arcs in the air.

Within each arc was a miniature tornado.

Whoosh...

The lightning high above seemed to come alive.

Her five arcs forcibly ensnared five bolts of lightning and dragged them toward Lin Shisan all at once.

"Senior Brother Lin, the lightning's coming down!"

Li Qingfeng, overflowing with gratitude, once again warned the stiff-faced Lin Shisan in time.

Surely bad luck couldn't hound me like this? Five bolts of lightning striking from five directions at once!

If they don't strike me dead, they'll work me to death.

Five bolts striking simultaneously would shake loose at least five Azure Spirit Fruits.

With his current cultivation and speed, catching them all at once was simply impossible.

Just moments ago, Li Qingfeng had nearly failed to catch an Azure Spirit Fruit and almost gotten bitten to death by Little Tabby Cat.

Was there no escaping this calamity? Was I really going to end up in Little Tabby Cat's mouth?

"Senior Sister..."

Cat-Raising Fairy, who kept the cat, seemed to sense something unusual as well and turned toward the nearby sky.

The languid woman answered her with a flirtatious glance.

It sent a jolt through her, raising goosebumps all over her body.

Everyone says Eldest Senior Sister is lustful. I never imagined she fancied women, too.

"Creak, creak..."

Lin Shisan could already see five Azure Spirit Fruits swaying, about to be shaken loose.

What should I do?

He did not want to become Little Tabby Cat's meal. He still had the Nine Heavens True Dragon Art to practice.

The Nine Heavens True Dragon Art?

At that thought, Lin Shisan decided to treat a dead horse as though it were still alive and circulated the Nine Heavens True Dragon Art for the first time.

Hurry!

Hurry!

Lin Shisan could wait no longer.

He leaped up and caught one falling Azure Spirit Fruit in his bottle while silently circulating the Nine Heavens True Dragon Art.

Was I done for?

Lin Shisan shared the other five Servant Disciples' terror, because the remaining four Azure Spirit Fruits were about to fall almost simultaneously.

Never mind Lin Shisan at the second level of body tempering-even a disciple at the sixth or seventh level could not catch four Azure Spirit Fruits at once.

The Azure Spirit Fruit trees were spaced more than twenty meters apart.

Although they formed something close to a circle, one circuit was still a hundred meters. There simply was not enough time.

"Meow, meow..."

"Senior Brother Lin..."

"Here goes!"

Lin Shisan snatched four pieces of thunderwood from his ring and hurled them in four directions with every last ounce of strength.

Crackle, crackle...

Electric arcs snapped and popped as the four pieces of thunderwood shot away.

Stimulated by the lightning overhead, all four pieces of thunderwood formed complete circles of electricity at the same time.

Those circles happened to catch the falling Azure Spirit Fruits.

Time seemed to freeze.

As though repelled by matching magnetic poles, the Azure Spirit Fruits floated above the circles of electricity and stopped falling.

Under the control of Lin Shisan's will, the four pieces of thunderwood were drawn back, along with the electric arcs supporting the Azure Spirit Fruits.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

The white bottle flashed past, taking in all four Azure Spirit Fruits at once.

The sight stunned not only the five Servant Disciples, but also the languid beauty and Cat-Raising Fairy.

That actually worked?

Even Little Tabby Cat, who had been preparing to transform and commit murder, stared with eyes as round as saucers.

He even let out a remarkably human sound of surprise.

"This is..."

As the languid beauty stared in astonishment, farther away in the sky, the ice-sculpture beauty murmured.

"Five elements thunder spirit body..."

"?"

"Impossible. Master said a five elements thunder spirit body always comes with a high-grade Dao Seed."

"How could someone with a false spiritual root, who doesn't even have a Dao Seed, possess the five elements thunder spirit body Master spoke of?"

The ice-sculpture beauty had the same doubts as the languid beauty.

This contradicted both their master's words and the secret lore of the Tai Chi Hall.

But how could they explain what had just happened?

They had not even understood how Lin Shisan had done it.

For now, all they could establish was that Lin Shisan seemed to possess an innate affinity for the power of lightning.

"Junior Brother Li, your fruit..."

Lin Shisan was the first to recover.

He warned Li Qingfeng in time that another Azure Spirit Fruit had been shaken loose on his side.

And so Lin Shisan and the others—six of them, or, more accurately now, five—darted back and forth through the thunder sea, catching Azure Spirit Fruits.

One servant had slipped up earlier, been struck by lightning, and ascended straight to heaven.

Only now did Lin Shisan understand that they had not been chosen for their handsome looks.

Rather, they were all people who, in some sense, had a special sensitivity to the power of lightning.

As for why someone with a false spiritual root like him had also been chosen, it might have been because of the thunderwood inside his ring.

That had led Cat-Raising Fairy to mistakenly believe that he, too, had a certain affinity for lightning.

It was not that she had anything particular against a small fry like him. He had been overthinking it.
