Chapter Seventy-Four: Showing Off Gets You Struck by Lightning

The beach at 3 pm was sunny and breezy, but unfortunately the seawater quality in Lingzhou is poor, so a large-scale tourism industry has never been developed, wasting the large area of ​​beaches along the Lingzhou coast.

The sun had moved to the west, and Zhuo Yang seemed to walk out of the sunlight. His figure became somewhat blurred by the moisture on the ground, but his sharp aura, like a precipitous peak, remained unchanged.

"Kid, how do you want to die?"

Lang Chi gave a sinister sneer as he stood on the reef, making his figure appear even more imposing.

Zhuo Yang stopped in his tracks, glanced around, and said with a faint smile, "After today's battle, the Lingzhou Cultivator Alliance can close down for good."

The expressions on the faces of the people on the beach all changed.

Ma Jian'an's face was ashen, clearly displeased with Zhuo Yang's arrogance. Yan Xiao's expression, however, was uncertain, it was hard to tell whether he was angry or trying to relax.

"Hmph, starting to talk big again." Lei Xiang chuckled a few times. "You're only at the Heartbeat stage, what makes you so arrogant? Don't you even consider Golden Core stage experts worthy of your attention?"

"Or do you think that just because Xin Mirou has become your servant, you'll be able to get her to do something?"

He looked down on Xin Mirou even more, thinking that this old woman was out of her mind and had been fooled by a brat's nonsense, willingly becoming his servant.

Perhaps she's attracted to that guy's good looks?

Lei Xiang's thoughts about Xin Mirou became increasingly unpleasant.

Xin Mirou remained expressionless and silent. She glanced at Zhuo Yang, her brows furrowing slightly. Looking like a teenager, her furrowed brows gave her a cute appearance.

Zhuo Yang sensed something and smiled slightly at her, "Tomorrow I'll send you to Lei Xiang to get all your face back, don't worry."

Xin Mirou's lips twitched, and she whispered, "Lang Chi is a Golden Core stage expert, aren't you afraid?"

Zhuo Yang nodded slightly, looked at Lang Chi, and said loudly, "Hey you on the rock, if you want to fight, then fight. Don't try to show off to me, or you'll get struck by lightning!"

"What?" Lang Chi's body stiffened instantly.

He had been building up momentum, hoping to crush Zhuo Yang under invisible pressure, so that he could show off his superior status and act domineeringly in front of the Lingzhou Cultivator Association, and even take control of the association in one fell swoop.

To everyone's surprise, Zhuo Yang was not only unaffected, but also ruined the atmosphere he had created with just one sentence.

Simmering with resentment, Lang Chi sneered, "Kid, you've got some nerve with your mouth. I'll pull out your teeth in a bit and see what you can say then!"

Zhuo Yang chuckled lightly: "I told you, showing off will get you struck by lightning."

Everyone was bewildered when suddenly a loud bang, like a thunderclap, rang out beside them.

Everyone was startled. Lang Chi, who was on the reef, simply jumped off the reef and into the sea, paddling awkwardly.

"What's going on?" Lei Xiang shouted in shock, not forgetting to protect Fu Jing behind him.

"Don't show off, or you'll get struck by lightning!" Zhuo Yang stood with his hands behind his back, his smile growing even wider.

Xin Mirou, standing next to her, seemed to have a twitch at the corner of her mouth, her lips trembling violently, unable to manage a laugh.

"Struck by lightning?"

Lei Xiang was completely confused. He turned his head and saw that there was indeed a large charred mark on the rock where Lang Chi had stood, still emitting blue smoke. It had indeed been struck by lightning.

He was suddenly taken aback, thinking to himself, "Is there really such a thing as 'showing off gets you struck by lightning'?"

The next moment, Lang Chi, who was paddling in the sea, leaped onto the beach and roared angrily, "Zhuo Yang, you are despicable and shameless! You actually used lightning magic to ambush me!"

Now everyone understood, and their mouths twitched.

That's shameless! Is this what you mean by "showing off will get you struck by lightning"?

That was obviously a sneak attack!

Zhuo Yang shrugged and laughed, "That's right, he was showing off, and then he got struck by lightning."

Lang Chi suddenly felt like he was going to vomit blood. He roared and charged straight at Zhuo Yang.

"Hmph, they've finally arrived!"

With a wave of his hand, Zhuo Yang sent the dragon-patterned longsword soaring into the sky and disappearing from sight.

Lang Chi was taken aback. A flying sword?

Flying swords are magical weapons that appear and disappear unpredictably and possess immense power; one can easily be caught off guard if one is not careful.

He dared not be careless and immediately stopped. The moment his feet touched the sand, black dots suddenly appeared on the beach within dozens of meters around him, like holes left by small crabs when the tide receded, densely packed and making him feel uneasy.

Zhuo Yang frowned and said in a deep voice, "Xiao Rou, step back!"

Xin Mirou was about to help him fight the enemy when she heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then quickly retreated dozens of meters away, directly to the coastal highway.

At this moment, Lang Chi shouted loudly, and countless black dots on the beach instantly rose into the air, then transformed into a barrage of hidden weapons, striking Zhuo Yang at extremely high speed.

"Metal-based magic?"

Zhuo Yang was secretly amazed; he had never seen such a metal-based spell before. Intrigued, he suddenly transformed into a blur and began running wildly across the beach.

Countless black dots passed through the afterimage behind him, but nothing was hit.

Zhuo Yang observed this and thought to himself, "Strange technique. Those black dots seem to be iron sand contained in the soil beneath the beach!"

Suddenly, countless black dots flew from directly in front, instantly blocking all of Zhuo Yang's dodge directions.

"Your cultivation level at the Heartbeat stage is absolutely terrible!" Lang Chi laughed wildly.

Zhuo Yang's life and death seemed to be in his control.

"Humph!"

A cold laugh abruptly changed the tense atmosphere.

Zhuo Yang leaped into the sky, his figure growing smaller and smaller until he became an almost invisible black dot.

"What's going on, trying to run away?"

Lang Chi roared in astonishment, jumping up and down in anger.

He is at the Golden Core stage and can fly, but he cannot fly straight up that high without having mastered advanced flying techniques.

Several people were looking up, the bright sunlight forcing them to squint.

"Brother Lang, something's wrong, be careful!" Lei Xiang shouted, looking shocked.

Lang Chi immediately perked up, waved his hand, and summoned countless black dots in front of him, forming a pitch-black spherical steel fortress, locking himself inside.

A sharp whistling sound came from the sky, like a fighter jet flying by at high speed.

Lei Xiang had a bad feeling and quickly pulled Fu Jing back dozens of meters. Yan Xiao was even more flustered and ran quickly to Xin Mirou's side. Ma Jian'an, however, was still standing there dumbfounded, looking up at the sky, seemingly stunned.

The dark figure in the sky became clearer and clearer, and gradually everyone could see that it was Zhuo Yang. He was holding a long sword and was falling to the ground at high speed with a straight thrust.

"What is he going to do? Just run into it?" Lei Xiang became increasingly suspicious.

Suddenly, a burst of lightning flashed in the sky, enveloping Zhuo Yang's entire figure, making him look like a huge bolt of lightning descending from the sky.

"Iron conducts electricity!"

The disdainful voice was drowned out by the thunder, and then the enormous bolt of lightning struck the dark fortress on the beach.

"boom……"

Lightning crackled and exploded, raising a sand wall tens of meters high...
