Chapter 158 - Lightning Potential

"What happened? Where are they?" Jin Chen woke up from the slow-motion and shouted when he didn't see Qin in front of him. And, everyone else wasn't there either.

Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, the black clouds started rumbling in the sky. This attracted the attention of the elders as they asked "Why are those black clouds appearing here?"

But, Elder Jiao instantly recognized it and shouted "Everyone, take cover! Tan Family has interfered!"

Outside the Rising Sun Sect,

Great Elder stood at the front gate and spoke holding the blue metal plate and yellow talisman in his hand.

"Is everyone ready?"

"Red Lightning Ready!" Tan Ming stood at another side of the sect and spoke in his yellow talisman while holding the red metal plate.

"Blue Lightning Ready!" Another elder standing on another side of the sect spoke while holding a blue metal plate.

"Yellow Lightning Ready!"

"Orange Lightning Ready!"

"Green Lightning Ready!"

"Indigo Lightning Ready!"

"Violet Lightning Ready!"

"Now!" The Great Elder screamed as he released his qi into the red plate and smashed it on the ground.

Whoosh!

The next moment, a bolt of red lightning burst out of the plate and struck towards the sky. At the same time, six different color lightning bolts struck the sky.

"Divine Punishment of Rain and Sun!"

The Great Elder raised his hands in front of his chest, forming strange hand signs and shouted. The next moment, seven different bolts of lightning traveled in the middle from different directions, and the black cloud transformed into a rainbow cloud.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The next moment, dozens of lightning bolts struck to the ground, turning the entire sect into the den of lightning bolts.

"Alright, this won't hold on for a long time. Let's leave!" The Great Elder rushed towards Qin and tilts his head.

Qin's red eyes return to normal as he nods his head. He walked towards Qiao Fu and let her enter the mysterious space. As soon as she enters the mysterious, Qin looked around and shouted "Where is Liu Bing?"

"Liu Bing! I didn't see anyone else from your team inside." Tan Ge spoke while eating the chicken leg. His expression frowned as he continued "Senior Sister did tell me about the twelfth member but, I didn't see anyone else. I swear I searched the entire sect five times"

"Brother Qin, I am here." Suddenly, Liu Bing pulled his sleeve from behind startling everyone. Nobody, not a single person sensed her presence. Even Lan Ming was clueless about her presence.

"Alright, let's leave!" Although Qin was still confused by the presence of the Tan Family, he was very grateful that they appeared and helped him. At this moment, he couldn't help but turn his head at Tan Ge who was constantly eating more chicken legs.

"He has tapped the Law of Lightning and gained access to another ability of the lightning. Although it seems like time has slowed down, in reality, he is moving too fast for our mind to even comprehend things that happen around us." The Great Elder explained to him as he ran with others.

"Why did you come here?" Qin asked after understanding his condition.

"Didn't that man tell you? Visit me once you reach the Essence Transformation Realm. And now, you are Essence Transformation Realm cultivator." The Great Elder showed a big smile as he spoke. But soon, his smile changed into a serious look as he continued.

"But, you did make a huge scene. You can't reveal that now. We are still inside the domain of the Great Ming Kingdom. Because of you, now I have to put the entire Tan Family in danger. Fortunately, we do have a plan for this."

Hearing his words, Qin paused for a moment and nodded his head "Thank you for helping out!"

"Well, save your thanks for now. You have a lot to do." Saying so, he turned his head at others and shouted "Speed up!"

With his words, everyone started moving at an incredible rate. It only took them an hour to reach the Tan Family. But, at this moment, the people from the Rising Sun Sect and Battle Dragon Sect were already chasing them.

As soon as they reached the Tan Family border, the Great Elder turned his head at Tan Ge and shouted "Boy, get ready for the run!"

"Wait for the last bite!" Saying so, Tan Ge engulfed an entire fist-sized chicken breast and placed his hand on the ground. He slowly takes the runner's position while releasing the lightning in his eyes.

"Godspeed mode- Blue Lightning!"

The blue lightning sparkled around his body and the next moment, he ran. His body traveled at a speed that was almost impossible to catch up with the normal eyes. As he ran around the Tan Family borders, he created the barrier of lightning.

The Great Elder turned his head at the old man standing in front of the gate and spoke "Supreme Elder, it's the time!"

The old man had a long white beard. He sighed and released the blue lightning in both of his hands. Without waiting for a second, he released the lightning towards the sky. The bolt of lightning reached a certain point in the sky and burst out, releasing several small bolts of lightning.

This lightning attracted the lightning released by Tan Ge. As these lightning barriers raised towards the sky, the eight people stood at the eight different corners of the border and shouted.

"Heavenly Lightning Array!"

Along with their voices, the bolts of lightning flew up towards the sky and combined with the previous blue lightning. It formed a barrier around the entire Tan Family.

"Damn! Damn! Damn!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Elder Jian stomped his foot and smashed the lightning barrier as soon as he reached near but his punch didn't pierce the lightning barrier.

"Elder Jiao, this barrier is the main defense of Tan Family. It won't go down that easily. You need to wait for twenty days before it goes down." Suddenly, an old man appeared next to Elder Jiao and spoke with a solemn expression.

When Elder Jiao saw the old man, he curiously asked "Why is Tu Family getting involved in this?"

"Tan Family has finally used their trump cards. How can our family not get involved? It seems we might have to investigate this future." The old man rubbed his chin and spoke. Then, he turned around and walked away.

"Father, what are we going to now?" The Rising Sun Sect Master walked next to Elder Jiao and asked.

"Didn't you hear what he just said? We need to wait for twenty days. It seems Tan family is more mysterious than we thought." Elder Jiao answered him and turned to Jin Chen.

"Sect Master Jin, I hope you will give us a proper explanation. Before this, Qin was the disciple of your sect. We have lost too much. If we don't get a satisfactory result, Rising Sun Sect won't hesitate to go on a war."

Hearing his words, Jin Chen clenched his fist but just when he was about to say anything, Jin Hao's voice rang on his head.

"Father, agree to him! Let him jump for a while. We will settle this soon. We all know why he is jumping so much. Don't worry, we will show him it's not just grandfather who held the sect."

Hearing his son's words, he finally calmed down and nodded his head "Don't worry, Elder Jiao. Battle Dragon Sect will compensate for your loss."

Saying so, he turned at Elder Chen and Elder Wu.

Elder Chen and Elder Wu hurriedly left together with him.

In the Battle Dragon Sect,

"So, you used this opportunity to create a feud between them and Rising Sun Sect?" Tian Su sat on the chair next to Jin Hao and asked with surprise on his face.

Hearing his words, Jin Hao smirked and said "Do you think I just used this opportunity?"

His words made Tian Su narrow his eyes as Jin Hao continued "I basically figured out his weakness. Or, I should say his reverse scale. So, I just had to fight an arrogant young master in our city."

"How could be so sure that the young master of Rising Sun Sect will try to assault her and why did he even assault her?" Tian Su asked with curiosity in his eyes.

"You should use that shadow technique of yours to cover more news. Don't you know the young master of Rising Sun Sect has a crush on Tan Xinyi? So, I just had to go there and tell him about Qin's relationship with Wen Xin. And, don't forget, Wen Xin might not be a talented person, she was a great beauty who can be compared to Tan Xinyi."

"As for how I was sure about the young master of Rising Sun Sect. This is quite contradictory. Have you ever heard of a phrase called 'Cultivator inhales QI and exhales IQ'? This phrase is true of eighty percent of the people and the young master of Rising Sun Sect does come in this eighty percent." Jin Hao smirked and answered him while putting his right leg over his left leg.

"Are you freaking serious? Do you know the entire world would get angry at you for this phrase?" Tian Su couldn't help but slap his forehead and ask.

"Hahaha! I don't care how many people will get angry at me. This is the truth and truth can't be changed. But, I am curious. Just how long can you maintain your second shadow? You know if your second shadow fails, our plan will get heavily damaged." Jin Hao bursts into laughter and asks.

Tian Su rolled his eyes and answered "Don't worry, my shadow can remain stable as long as I want.. Of course, if it gets hit with a strong attack, it will disappear. And, don't you think I will learn more by staying with them like the history of this Tan Family and why did they help Qin?"
