Chapter 1144 - 1244: Struggling Against Heaven

But just as Bai Feng was hesitating on whether to call Ye Tianfan?

Suddenly, the thunder outside the tent became even more intense, and Bai Feng could also see a flash of white light passing by outside the tent.

"Did it flash?"

Seeing the white light flicker outside, Bai Feng was immediately surprised.

In such a pitch-black environment where one couldn't see their fingers, the fact that Bai Feng could see the flash of white light meant that this lightning must have been incredibly huge. Only such a flash could penetrate the darkness filled with Demonic Qi, Evil Qi, and other negative auras.

Although Ye Tianfan was still recovering his Spiritual Power, he vaguely sensed some changes in the outside world. Even though he didn't know if these changes were good or bad, any change meant he could no longer continue recovering his Spiritual Power here!

If the outside world had changed and Ye Tianfan continued his recovery, he would surely be affected and would have to end his recovery sooner or later. Moreover, while he was recovering, someone would have to guard him, reducing a combatant and thus delaying others.

That's why Ye Tianfan thought of waking up quickly. Even though he hadn't been recovering for long, he had recovered enough to stay conscious and have extra energy, so he decided to wake up sooner and then determine the next steps!

After all, beyond the wall, anything could happen. It was a mystical place filled with various outside creatures, and now they could add another note to the records: the weather could become extremely severe!

As for being ever-changing, not quite yet, as they had stayed beyond the wall for about a week. They could only roughly calculate the time because time which was nonexistent beyond the wall. All they could see was Demonic Qi, Evil Qi, and other negative auras with no signs of weather changes, so they could only estimate!

The group had been outside the wall for a week and hadn't noticed any signs of rapidly changing weather. It was only now that they saw the flash of lightning, and even then, they only saw the flash, not the lightning itself!

So the group wasn't sure whether this kind of weather was normal or abnormal beyond the wall.

However, normal or not, it was abnormal for everyone because the sky suddenly darkened to a point where one couldn't see their hand in front of their face. To anyone, this would feel abnormal. Even if such weather was normal for the outside, for those inside the wall, it was undeniably abnormal!

At this moment, Zhen Chu was already standing outside the tent, looking at the bright lights from various Magical Treasures and slightly squinting his eyes. While others might not notice, Zhen Chu felt a faint pressure from the sky. This pressure came not from any individual but seemed to emanate from the entire sky.

Moreover, Zhen Chu had a hunch that the next lightning would definitely strike their Energy Shield!

This was a unique intuition among Cultivators, especially at Zhen Chu's level, where such feelings were rarely ignored, as it was as if fate itself was warning them!

So Zhen Chu watched the sky and silently summoned out the Free and Unfettered Sword. There was still Spiritual Power leftover from borrowing the Power of Heaven and Earth earlier, which Zhen Chu had temporarily concealed within the sword. Although this power would quickly dissipate, not much time had passed since the battle, so very little had been lost.

After summoning the Free and Unfettered Sword, Zhen Chu activated the Spiritual Power within it.

In an instant, the sword erupted in a brilliant white light, illuminating the inside of the Energy Shield as bright as day.

Seeing Zhen Chu appear, the group immediately felt a sense of reassurance and began putting away their Magical Treasures to gather around him.

"Sect Leader!"

"Sect Leader!"

As they gathered around, Zhen Chu asked with some concern, "Sect Leader, the sky is so strange, and there's this unknown lightning. What should we do?"

"Yes, Sect Leader, I feel like we might be struck by that lightning! The flash just now was brighter than your Free and Unfettered Sword!" Zhen Chu also spoke up.

As soon as Zhen Chu finished speaking, it was as if the lightning answered him!

"Crack!"

The flash of lightning instantly overshadowed the brightness of Zhen Chu's Free and Unfettered Sword, making the scene inside the Energy Shield so bright it could blind one's eyes!

Then everyone's sight was suddenly darkened again.

Although the sword's brightness had reached the level of daylight, after the lightning, everyone suddenly felt that the sword was not as bright as they had imagined, though it was still very bright!

But the group quickly paid no attention to this and instead focused on the lightning strike from earlier!

The lightning had clearly appeared just outside their Energy Shield, aimed straight for their defense line.

However, for some reason, the lightning seemed too short, not hitting its mark!

Next, it was as if the heavens grew angry. The group could clearly see a Thunder Eye flickering in the sky, made up of Demonic Qi, Evil Qi, and other negative auras!

The lightning wasn't the previous white color but was now black-purple!

By this time, Ye Tianfan had also stood up, having sensed the earlier threat from the lightning. Even though the lightning didn't strike the Energy Shield, its aftershock touched it, making Ye Tianfan feel a signal from the Chaos Treasure Lotus!

From the signal, Ye Tianfan concluded that while he could convert the lightning's energy into other forms like Spiritual Power, he couldn't convert its impact or intimidation into other energies. Or rather, Ye Tianfan currently lacked the ability to make such a conversion.

After reaching this conclusion, Ye Tianfan was taken aback. He hadn't thought that the Chaos Treasure Lotus could convert even impact and intimidation into other forms of energy. But then, impact is a form of energy, and if it's energy, it can certainly be converted.

However, for now, Ye Tianfan's abilities were insufficient to perform such conversions!
