Martial Arts? Sorry, I am better at Thunder Spell!

Chapter 37: 037 Five Thunders Spell, a bit of excitement for the Grand Dukes! (Asking for monthly passes! Asking for favorites!)

“Crackle!”

Qin Hao’s palms lit up with Hand Palm Thunder and without a second thought, he blasted it at the ghostly Evil Qi.

Just aimed at any random ghost.

Boom!

With a scream, a ghost was immediately struck by lightning, turning into smoke and disappearing without a trace.

Then came the next one.

Countless Hand Palm Thunders were born from Qin Hao’s hands.

Having broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, his internal storage of True Yuan increased a hundredfold; the bit of True Yuan consumed by the Hand Palm Thunder, he didn’t care at all.

What could be more joyful than ghost killing?

A massive and terrifying gloom of Evil Qi,

Was quickly eradicated by a quarter under Qin Hao’s Hand Palm Thunder.

In the mountains, the agonized screams of the ghostly Evil Qi continued to echo.

Even the Black Bear Demon, who originally harbored a psychological shadow from this Evil Qi, wasn’t scared at all now.

The old saying was indeed correct: all fear stems from insufficient firepower.

With the Heavenly Master here, with Thunder Spell at hand.

What Evil Qi?

All merely younger brothers!

Completely dominated by the Five Thunder True Method!

However, this mass of Evil Qi wasn’t foolish.

At first, it tried to fight Qin Hao.

But soon, it realized that the thunder in this human’s hand was the natural nemesis of their kind.

Within just a few minutes, a quarter of the overlords’ powers had been destroyed.

Watching their greatly weakened strength,

The overlords were terrified.

These ghosts, revering the strong and bullying the weak even in death, still maintained this good practice.

Suddenly, the Evil Qi turned tail and fled, sinking into the pool’s water, refusing to resurface even if it killed them.

The Black Bear Demon watched the Evil Qi hide in the water.

It said, “Heavenly Master, what do we do now? That ghostly thing has hidden itself.”

The pool was very deep.

If this Evil Qi kept hiding underwater.

No one could do anything about it.

The Black Bear Demon was a bit anxious.

If this Evil Qi didn’t come out for a day, were they supposed to just keep watch here?

For over a decade?

The Black Bear Demon became nervous.

In contrast, Qin Hao was completely calm and said, “Don’t worry, I intentionally let them go in there.”

If Qin Hao wanted, with his Five Thunder True Method, he could have instantly formed a thunder net over the water with the Hand Palm Thunder just now.

The Evil Qi, trying to retreat, would only be scorched by the thunder net and then bounced back with nowhere to escape.

But Qin Hao didn’t do that; he deliberately let the overlords hide inside.

Because Qin Hao had a big gift prepared for the overlords.

Qin Hao stood by the water and cast Hand Palm Thunders into it.

First forming a thunder net over the water’s surface.

This was to prevent the overlords from escaping; he wanted to catch them in the urn.

With the thunder net in place,

Qin Hao then stepped in the Seven-star Step, mobilized the True Yuan within his body, and chanted the Five Thunders Spell.

“Thunderous command, swift as Star Fire, majestic spirits from all directions, grant me natural power!

Spirit Treasure Decree announces to the Nine Heavens, mysterious and profound great power!

Slay thousands of fiends and ghosts, expel the malevolent, and uphold the Taoist vigor!

Draw forth my True Yuan, beckon the Heavenly Thunder, gather the black clouds, and descend the lightning with a flick!”

Once the Five Thunders Spell was spoken,

Instantly, the sky above transformed.

The whole area of Qingyun Mountain, once under the high-hanging midday sun,

In that instant, dark clouds gathered, covering the sky.

In the terrifying clouds, lightning raged.

Like giant pythons, thunder snaked through the clouds.

The Black Bear Demon watched Qin Hao chant the Five Thunders Spell.

He summoned the Thunder Clouds.

Hastily, it backed away several steps.

Qingyun Mountain’s Heavenly Master’s Five Thunders Spell.

Impressive!

This wasn’t for play!

Using True Yuan to beckon the Heavenly Thunder down to the Mortal World.

This was a grand Spell!

The thunder summoned was not the ordinary thunder from the Mortal World; it was the punitive Heavenly Thunder.

Typically, called forth by the Heavenly Master to strike against foes.

Its destructive power was dozens of times that of ordinary natural lightning.

The Black Bear Demon looked at the pool in front of it.

It seemed that the Evil Qi lurking beneath would meet its doom!

Qin Hao had summoned the Heavenly Thunder, planning to give the overlords a good shock.

…

Meanwhile.

Near Qingyun Mountain, on the national highway,

Private cars zoomed back and forth.

In a BMW, a young man around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old sat in the driver’s seat.

At the moment, his hand was resting on the snow-white thigh of the girl in the passenger seat.

The girl browsed news on her smartphone and said, “Honey, did you see? The Qingyun Mountain Taoist is in the news again.”

The man replied, “What now? Is it that Taoist who knows Thunder Spell?”

The girl said, “No, this time it seems to be other Taoists. There’s been a beast tide near Qingyun Mountain, and those Taoists went down the mountain to save people. They all possess extraordinary skills; I just watched the video, and each one of them can defeat tigers and wolves barehanded. They seem really powerful!”

She continued, “We’re near Qingyun Mountain right now, and these Taoists all seem really mighty. How about we go up the mountain to burn some incense too? What if it actually works?”

Hearing his wife’s words, the man scoffed.

With a know-it-all air, he said, “Babe, let me tell you something. All that stuff online is virtual, half truths, half lies. Don’t believe it too much.

What can’t be photoshopped these days? Even videos can be manipulated! How do you know these aren’t just special effects a team made up for the Qingyun Mountain Taoists to hype things up and earn more incense money?

The Shaosen Temple Corporation is almost going public! Wasn’t that also hyped? All that about a Taoist who knows the Thunder Spell or barehandedly controls a tiger, it’s all fake.

What era are we living in? How could people possibly know the Thunder Spell? It just goes to show, the less one knows, the more real the Taoist’s Thunder Spell seems!

Believe it or not, put that so-called Thunder Spell Taoist who was all the rage before in front of me, and with my muscular build here, one punch and he’ll have to lie down obediently for me!”

The man showed off the muscles he gained from months of training in the gym to his wife, proud of himself.

Seeing the admiring and respectful gaze from his wife, the man felt his coolness was off the charts.

However, just as he finished boasting,

The next second,

“Crackle!”

The sky over the whole region of Qingyun Mountain instantly shifted from day to night.

Dark clouds covered the sky, and a red streak of lightning tore through the heavens, striking down.

Red lightning descended from the sky, aiming directly into a part of the forest.

The resounding clap of thunder echoed across the sky.

That streak of red lightning happened to fall not far from the road.

In the BMW, watching the sky turn to night in a second and seeing the sky fill with red lightning,

The man inside was scared silly.

The muscles that bulged on his arm moments ago went limp.

Because that lightning did not look like natural lightning at all!

The BMW guy had seen white lightning during natural thunderstorms, even purple ones.

But this blood-red lightning, like the sky bleeding, who had ever seen such a thing?

The BMW guy’s legs trembled.

Could it be that the Heavenly Master heard his boasting just now?

Surely not…

It couldn’t be that supernatural, could it?

The man was panicked and quickly found a spot ahead to turn around.

The girl in the passenger seat, puzzled, asked, “Why are we turning around, honey? Where are we going?”

The man, still shaken, said, “How about we listen to you and go burn some incense at Qingyun Mountain?”
