Gou in the world of comprehension

Chapter 1474 It seems I'm destined to be struck by lightning.
Su Fan instantly understood Xie Fo Lao Wang's thoughts. He and Lao Long Li Gao were both left with only a wisp of remnant souls, barely surviving in the world.

These two old men, who had lived for countless years, both hoped to use the essence of evil spirits to give their extremely weak and remnant souls a glimmer of hope.

But who could have predicted that after studying the source of the evil spirit for several days, they still couldn't find a way to completely remove its evil energy?

The two old men's disappointment was almost palpable.

At this moment, Su Fan didn't say a single unnecessary word.

He genuinely didn't care that these two old guys were sharing this object of evil spirit origin with him.

Su Fan took the Soul Crystal and turned to leave the Gathering Yin Secret Realm, but as soon as he took a step, he suddenly remembered something important and quickly stopped and bowed to Old Dragon Li Gao.

"Senior, I have something I'd like to ask you..."

"Speak...what is it..."

"Previously in the realm of evil spirits, I devoured a massive amount of strange soul fragments using the blood sacrifice method of the Witch Clan. Although I managed to cultivate a second Yin spirit within my body according to the method taught by Elder Wang, my soul is constantly entangled by various evil thoughts that I can't shake off..."

Over the past few years, those evil thoughts have been like a persistent carbuncle, popping up from time to time, disturbing his mind and making him almost explode with anger.

Now, it is only through the forceful suppression of the spirit that those evil thoughts and malices that have crawled out from the bottom of the heart have been barely prevented from completely getting out of control.

But Su Fan knew perfectly well that if his soul strength hadn't increased several times over, he would have been devoured by those evil thoughts and his mind would have been torn apart long ago.

Moreover, those strange fragments of his soul were hidden within his soul, like a time bomb, and no one knew when they would suddenly explode.

There was no way around it; back in the Evil Spirit Realm, he had devoured far too many strange soul fragments, making it virtually impossible to eradicate them completely.

Even if he were to return to that point in time, Su Fan would still swallow those strange fragments of divine soul without hesitation.

After all, devouring those strange fragments of divine souls could directly increase his divine soul strength several times over.

Such an opportunity is rare even in the entire cultivation world.

Any cultivator would not hesitate for a moment in the face of such an opportunity.

Su Fan's current soul strength is such that even when facing those old monsters at the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm, he can directly crush them with his soul advantage.

As for those hidden dangers, we can always find ways to eliminate them gradually, but such an opportunity, once missed, will never come again.

But given the current situation, it's clear that we can't delay any longer.

He can manage on ordinary days, but if evil thoughts and malice suddenly erupt within him during a life-or-death battle, then what awaits him is only the destruction of his soul.

After listening to Su Fan's words, Old Dragon Li Gao lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.

"This would be a huge problem for anyone else, but it's nothing for you. Don't you have the Thunderous Body? Just draw heavenly lightning into your body and repeatedly refine your soul. If once isn't enough, try twice. You'll eventually succeed after a few tries..."

What the hell...

So, I was born to be struck by lightning.

Despite his complaints, Su Fan agreed with Lao Long Li Gao's suggestion.

This method is clumsy, but sometimes, the clumsiest path is the most effective one.

Su Fan stepped out of the Gathering Yin Secret Realm and couldn't help but sigh softly.

Although he successfully broke through to the Integration Realm, the price of this breakthrough was far heavier than he had imagined.

After all, he broke through in the desperate situation of the Evil Spirit Realm, and he didn't prepare at all before the breakthrough; he just forced his way through.

He devoured a massive amount of bizarre soul fragments through the blood sacrifice of the Witch Clan, and even chose to break through to a place next to the origin of evil spirits.

It's a miracle that anyone survived such a risky operation.

Although he managed to open the door to the Integration Realm by sheer luck, it also planted a host of hidden dangers in his body.

Several years have passed since his breakthrough, but the hidden dangers within him have not diminished in the slightest.

Thinking of this, Su Fan raised his hand and summoned the Ghost Crow, then leaped onto its back and rode it towards the distant, endless mountains.

Ever since he got the method from Lao Long Li Gao, he wanted to find a secluded place to try it out.

The sooner potential problems are addressed, the better, to avoid being caught off guard when a crisis occurs in the future.

That's why he thought he should take advantage of the fact that he had nothing else to do and quickly get rid of these potential problems.

Su Fan rode the ghost crow for more than ten days and finally arrived at a deep mountain where even birds and beasts were rare.

He found a relatively flat spot to land, and with a wave of his hand, he put the ghost crow into his personal secret realm.

Su Fan looked up at the sky, his figure swayed slightly, and he disappeared from the spot.

When he reappeared, he was already standing firmly on the summit of a solitary peak.

Su Fan glanced at the sky again. The sky was already covered with dark clouds, and judging from the look of it, it wouldn't be long before a heavy rain began to fall.

He found a clean spot, sat down cross-legged, and quietly waited for the weather to change.

The method used by Lao Long to leave Gao was actually very simple: he relied on the thunder and lightning of heaven and earth to gradually grind away the evil thoughts mixed in with the soul.

To be honest, nobody wants to get struck by lightning.

Trying to cleanse one's soul with the raging thunder from the heavens is like using a cannon to swatt a mosquito—it's exhausting and thankless.

But right now he really has no other choice; even the dumbest method has become his only hope.

Su Fan himself couldn't remember the last time he was struck by lightning.

Who would have thought that even after breaking through to the Integration Realm, one would still have to suffer the torment of heavenly lightning? Just thinking about it makes my heart ache.

As his thoughts were churning, the dark clouds in the sky grew thicker and thicker, pressing down so heavily that it was hard to breathe. Lightning flashed through the clouds, and the thunder grew closer and closer.

A sudden gust of wind rose in the mountains, blowing trees as thick as bowls this way and that, and large raindrops were about to fall.

Without further hesitation, Su Fan unleashed a chilling aura that instantly connected with heaven and earth.

"Click..."

A blinding white light suddenly flashed by, instantly illuminating the pitch-black night sky as if it were daytime, even turning the clouds overhead a ghastly white.

"Rumble..."

A deafening explosion that shook the mountaintop followed immediately, the roar like the sky collapsing and the earth splitting apart, slamming into Su Fan's ears.

Lao Tzu was right after all; every time he summoned the heavenly lightning, it was something to be trifled with.

The thunder and lightning of heaven and earth never tolerate any faults. What does a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator count for? They will still strike as they please.

He had deliberately drawn this lightning bolt down, making it several times more powerful than ordinary lightning, and even its body gleamed with a deep purple, menacing light.

Furthermore, the presence of evil spirits surrounding him further amplified the ferocity of the heavens and earth's thunder.

This bolt of lightning was far more violent than he had anticipated.

When the fierce lightning struck Su Fan, even though he was already a Nascent Soul cultivator, he was still struck so hard that his whole body convulsed, and he almost rolled around in pain. His physical body was tough enough, and his Thunder Dao Body could withstand lightning, but even so, the excruciating pain that seemed to emanate from the very bones still made him gasp involuntarily.

Especially when the heavenly lightning drills into the sea of ​​consciousness to cleanse the soul, the feeling is even more unbearable than walking through the eighteenth level of purgatory.

This is different from an ordinary person touching a 220-volt power line; when an ordinary person touches electricity, it only hurts.

But he was in so much pain that his very soul was trembling, yet he couldn't die and could only endure it.

But what caught him off guard was yet to come. Su Fan never expected that the heavenly lightning, as soon as it entered his body, would seem to have eyes and rush straight towards his second Yin God with a world-destroying force.

As soon as the deep purple electric current grazed the second Yin Spirit, Su Fan felt a sharp pain in his sea of ​​consciousness, his vision went black, and he almost fainted.

It was only then that Su Fan belatedly realized that he was in big trouble.

His physical body could withstand it, and his Thunder Dao Body had become accustomed to heavenly lightning. Over the years, he had been struck by lightning many times, and his physical body, dantian, and sea of ​​consciousness had long been worn down by heavenly lightning to develop resistance.

The second Yin spirit is different. It has only been condensed for a short time, and its soul is still very immature. What's worse, it still carries the aura of the origin of evil spirits, which naturally attracts the repulsion of heavenly lightning.

So when this bolt of lightning struck out of nowhere, the originally solid Yin spirit soul was instantly shaken and almost shattered.

Su Fan's heart tightened. If the second Yin God was truly cleaved in two, even if he didn't die, his soul would be severely damaged, and his consciousness would be reduced by at least half.

He had experienced the pain of a wounded soul once in his youth, and he never wanted to go through that excruciating pain again.

Looking up at the sky, the dark clouds that covered the sky were as thick as ink, and not a single ray of light could get in.

Silver-purple lightning surged within the clouds, like mad pythons, each twist accompanied by thunderclaps that could be heard for miles around.

The violent energy of heaven and earth raged through the mountains, causing the land within a hundred miles to tremble slightly, as if it were about to crack open at any moment, and the air was filled with a suffocating sense of oppression.

Su Fan's heart skipped a beat; this was completely different from the script he had envisioned.

He quickly scrambled to his feet, trying to use hand seals to stop the lightning-summoning spell, but as soon as he raised his hand, he found himself unable to move.

An invisible aura pressed down from the sky, locking onto him firmly.

Now even if he wanted to stop, he couldn't.

You either survive these rounds of heavenly lightning, or you'll be chased and struck by it. No matter where you run, you can't escape this calamity.

What the hell...

He could withstand the heavenly lightning, but the second Yin spirit that had just condensed within him couldn't withstand such torment at all.

Faced with such violent heavenly lightning, the Second Yin God probably won't be able to survive today.

At this moment, the thunderclouds in the sky seemed to be completely enraged, and they brewed for dozens of breaths in the high sky. The oppressive atmosphere made the entire mountain peak quiet down.

Within the dense thunderclouds, streaks of lightning and fire continuously exploded, illuminating most of the sky as bright as day, making the pitch-black sky seem as if it were about to be torn apart at any moment.

"Click..."

A blinding white light ripped through the sky, followed by a deafening explosion that shook the mountains and rivers.

"Rumble..."

As soon as the deafening roar subsided, a bolt of purple lightning as thick as a bucket found its outlet, instantly tearing through the dark void and crashing down with earth-shattering force.

What the hell...

Su Fan could clearly feel that the second Yin spirit within his body was about to lose its stability and was on the verge of collapsing.

In desperation, he pulled out a pitch-black soul crystal from his storage ring. It was the soul crystal of the evil spirit lord, but as soon as he got it, the soul crystal turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared.

The next second, a cool aura surged into his body through his palm, heading straight for his second Yin spirit. The Yin spirit soul, which was about to fade away, instantly solidified a bit.

Su Fan's eyes lit up. He didn't care about the loss of the soul crystals and reached out to grab a few more evil spirit lord soul crystals from his storage ring, holding them in his hand before the heavenly lightning struck.

Almost the instant he grasped the Soul Crystal, a bolt of deep purple lightning struck him hard.

Su Fan shuddered, a piercing pain surging through his limbs and bones, making his vision blur and making him wish he could smash his head against a rock to end it all.

Even though the second Yin spirit within the body had just solidified a little, it was still struck by heavenly lightning, causing its soul body to tremble and almost shatter.

Next, bolts of deep purple lightning struck down from the sky one after another, as if they were free, each one more ferocious than the last.

Su Fan's Evil Spirit Lord Soul Crystal was quickly depleted, but the heavenly lightning showed no sign of stopping; instead, it struck even more fiercely.

"Damn you, God! When will you ever stop...?"

Su Fan's eyes turned red with anger, and he pointed at the sky, cursing loudly.

But nobody paid him any attention; all he got in response was louder thunder and denser lightning.

At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky were like primordial beasts breaking free from their restraints, tearing and rolling at each other in the high sky, spreading outwards in layers, as if they wanted to swallow the whole world.

Between the clouds, streaks of purple lightning, like winding dragons, rampaged through the clouds, each flash illuminating the sky and earth in a ghastly white light.

The thunder that followed was like the collapse of the sky and the splitting of the earth; the sound seemed to cleave the heavens in two and shake the earth to the bottom of the sea.

Su Fan knew perfectly well that the power of the next heavenly lightning bolt would be unprecedented.

But at this moment, he had no evil spirit lord soul crystals left.

Su Fan gritted his teeth, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, and suddenly raised his right hand, grabbing hard at the void.

"Whoosh..."

A jet-black crystal shot out from the Yin Gathering Secret Realm and landed steadily in Su Fan's palm; it was the very object that was the origin of the evil spirit.

At this point, who cares how precious this thing is?

If the second Yin spirit is gone, his soul will also be damaged, and his consciousness will shrink by at least half.

Su Fan stood atop a towering mountain peak, the biting wind whistling like knives, tearing at his clothes and making them flutter loudly.

His long hair danced wildly in the wind, each strand standing upright like a steel needle, occasionally flashing with a glint of light and making a crisp "crackling" sound.

The powerful aura emanating from his body was like that of an ancient war god descending, causing the entire world to tremble.

At this moment, the evil spirit in his palm was shrinking little by little, like an egg whose shell was being peeled off layer by layer, revealing the core inside.

In just a moment, the object representing the origin of evil spirits vanished completely from his palm, leaving not even a trace of its aura.

Meanwhile, the second Yin spirit within him began to show signs of transformation, gradually becoming a strange being exuding an eerie aura.

"Boom... Boom..."

Finally, bolts of deep purple lightning crashed down from the sky, each one thicker than all the previous bolts combined, their violent aura distorting the entire space.

Moreover, amidst the flashes of lightning, strange Dao seals faintly appeared, emanating an ancient and mysterious aura, as if containing the power of the laws of heaven and earth.
