The Demon Swordsman 2
Ch. 102 - The Power of Nature
Xin Chen was stunned for a while, the Lightning Fox was indeed the most aware of his desire to kill everyone who became his father's old enemy.
"Although the person you saved won't necessarily appreciate you," added the Lightning Fox somewhat piercingly, Xin Chen could still hear it at a glance and could only pensively in silence. Although now he felt his strength was better than before but regarding the development of his training this nobody knew other than the Lightning Fox and the people he encountered during the journey.
Before long the Lightning Fox turned around its body intending to gather its strength as usual. This aims to extend its age, not infrequently stealth seems to have an age of up to millions of years. Even in a critical state, they can use unlimited power to restore it.
Now only Xin Chen and Ye Long remained, not thinking about the words of the Lightning Fox earlier Xin Chen finally continued his training again. Mastering the Lightning Rain technique seems to be a pretty difficult thing to do.
Given that the ability to control nature was one of the high-level moves then Xin Chen had to be more careful in using it. Indeed, if you think about it now the course taught by the Thunder Fox is only intended for the Earth Ruler Demon who has the advantage of mastering various natural elements.
Xin Chen raised his sword with both hands, raising his head above the sky even though the rain water easily entered into the eyes.
He closed his eyes while releasing lightning strength slowly unfortunately the lightning energy actually moved uncontrollably. They propagated up into the sky at high speed and two seconds later fell down into the sky with an amount that was ten times stronger than its original strength.
"Si-shit... The lightning was fused with the power of nature. That lightning striking a human could be dangerous." His words were somewhat afraid, smoke due to lightning strikes that hit the trees was still visible in the air even though rainwater washed it.
Ye Long began to protest as Xin Chen resumed training his Lightning Rain technique, not without reason the dragon was angry. The water on the ground is starting to look unusual. The roots of the lightning were like they were creeping through the puddle and if Ye Long stepped foot there he would definitely be attacked by the power of the lightning.
The more Xin Chen tried, the more the power of the lightning both within his body and from the natural energy grew bigger, subconsciously the huge cloud scrolls moved in tandem over him and fused there. Xin Chen only found out when Ye Long hissed threatened in that direction.
The dragon was more sensitive to danger, hence the moment he felt the unusual power converge and threaten their lives he immediately showed an alert attitude.
Xin Chen's breath seemed to be stifled, all this time he had never found a stance that was directly related to the strength or energy of nature. Most often it is also found is a change in the energy of wind, fire, water and much more and it was done using energy changes from humans.
But this time the clouds above him moved to make a huge hole in the so terrible, chains of lightning joined in the clouds like electric eels. As Xin Chen was hypnotized with the natural phenomenon on it the Thunder Fox came and could barely breathe seeing what was happening there.
"Chen, what are you doing?!" Just this time the Thunder Fox became as sweet as it was. He moved very, very quickly and expended twenty percent of his strength to bring out the shape of a fox demon claw from his original body.
That large-sized claw protected Xin Chen's body and the Lightning Fox. Right at the moment when the Lightning Fox protecting him the earth began to tremble violently, Xin Chen could not see what was happening above clearly.
But when he peered through the cracks of the Thunder Fox's claws a bright light came and fell from the sky to the earth's surface at such a high speed that it struck all over the place that a bang could be heard. The ground seemed to crack from the attack from above that sky and a huge shock came at the same time as well.
A few seconds Xin Chen could hear terrifying sounds sounding from above the sky. It had been thought before that power came from the Lightning Fox but upon thinking again even the fox was shocked when this would happen Xin Chen was sure that attacking him earlier was not an ordinary one.
"W-what happened?" Xin Chen circulated his gaze around and found the house they had stopped by earlier had been smashed to pieces with smoke spreading around it. Dozens of trees also fell due to the lightning strike earlier.
The Lightning Fox also did not sense the dragon's existence, he turned around to be able to see around clearly. Before long he spoke softly, "The Black Dragon... He seems to have been struck by a lightning curse."
"P-lightning curse?! You didn't say anything about it before to me!" Xin Chen's facial complexion changed drastically, he panicked at the same time.
"I didn't say it because I didn't think it would happen." The Lightning Fox said slightly hesitantly, "As a human you don't have special powers like the Earth Ruling Demon to control nature."
"And why did you teach me this Lightning Rain technique? Besides I'm just using a little bit of my power to make a Thunder Rain."
"You're wrong," cut the Lightning Fox short. "The power of lightning that has been flowing in your body is from the pure energy within me. Your body is used to the power of lightning and you use it often in combat. That's what makes the power of lightning grow in your body."
The Lightning Fox continued, "With the growing amount of pure lightning energy growing within your body, then controlling nature with human power could happen. Nature is just trying to resist the power it really did, as you saw earlier. That's what I call the Lightning of Curse."
"Hey your explanation is a little hard for me to understand..."
"One day you will understand that to protect what you want to protect requires a force that exceeds even the strongest of humans. If your strength is enough you can challenge the sky like that, to subdue nature you need to defeat it."
"Wait, beat who did you say?"
"Beat the Spirit God of Lightning."
Almost Xin Chen choked, from the very beginning he should have known that knowing the Earth Ruling Demon like the Lightning Fox was indeed not an ordinary matter. Too much power beyond human reason that he had never met was now visible with his own eyes.
"This joke isn't funny at all Fox Master, hahaha I think you should practice joking first. Your face is too serious to be taken in by a joke.."
"I'm not kidding at all. The Spirit of Lightning Element was one of the secrets that no human had ever known. As a Demon Lord of the Earth who has lived for millions of years, of course I know many of these problems, even when all of you humans have not stepped on the earth. I've sensed the time when these Elemental Spirits are destroying the entire world."
The Lightning Fox said something that was beyond Xin Chen's shadow, when the fox was young he had felt a time when the world was frozen by the Ice Element Spirit and filled with fire lava due to the actions of the Fire Element Spirit.
And to create peace, each of these Spirit Elements hid themselves by giving spiritual stones to the strongest demons. To make sure their strength remains and give special powers to the demons.
