I'll Quit Being a God - Chapter 4

Chapter 4: Controlling Lightning

As the only mountain God and also the most powerful being in Cold Feather Mountain, Lu Heng can order other beasts in the mountain to do some simple things,

Like escorting this girl named Xiao Ai back to her village.

Although he can't leave the mountain God temple now, he can ask this group of monkeys to do something.

Lu Heng was also not a member of any extreme animal protection organization, so there was no psychological burden for such things.

After receiving the simple information passed back by the monkeys, Lu Heng dispersed the group of monkeys in front of the mountain God temple and let them go back.

Knowing that Xiao Ai was safely back in the village, Lu Heng returned to the ground and started cultivating with a peace of mind.

Or rather, repairing this seriously injured body.

Although it did not seem to have any external injuries, Lu Heng's body was actually on the verge of collapse.

The thunder power flowed between his limbs and bones, and his demon body could collapse at any moment. But once Lu Heng tried to dispel these thunderbolts in his body, the moment his mind touched the thunderbolts, his eyes would go black and he would feel a strong tingling sensation of pain.

It was just like touching high-voltage electricity.

The only way to dissipate these thunderbolts was to rely on the incense wish power accumulated in this mountain God temple for eighty years.

According to the wolf demon's residual memory, Lu Heng could use this incense wish power to slowly repair his demon body.Using it little by little to smooth out the thunder qi in the body - this was the least expensive way to use incense wish power.

But Lu Heng didn't want to do that because it would take too long, at the very least several years, to barely remove the power of the heavenly tribulation in his body.

He couldn't wait that long, and Lu Heng didn't care about the incense wish power either

One could say he even disliked it.

The wolf demon built a temple on this site and received offerings from mortals, which helped his practice and gave him some convenience and authority as a Mountain God. But in becoming a Mountain God, the wolf demon was bound to this place and could not leave Cold Feather Mountain at all.

The wolf demon did not care about this, but Lu Heng did not want to stay in this remote Cold Feather Mountain for the rest of his life. He wanted to go out and see the outside world.

He didn't want to be a Mountain God in this place.

If he could use up this incense wish directly, it might be a good thing for him.

Thinking about this, Lu Heng no longer hesitated and directly swallowed the wolf demon's incense wish power that had been accumulated for eighty years into his body, guiding this power to swim in his limbs and bones, using this warm and soft incense wish power to disperse the power of heavenly thunder in his body.

This process was not fast, but it was not slow either.

With eighty years of incense wish power raging, Lu Heng clearly felt the body's thunder force gradually dispersed.

At the end of the day, only a cloud of condensed and undissipated thunderbolt power remained inside the brain.

Without hesitation, Lu Heng directly guided all the remaining incense wish power in his body to the brain, trying to erase this group of condensed and unbroken thunderbolt power in one fell swoop.

But just as all the remaining incense wish power surged into his brain together to disperss the condensed thunderbolt, Lu Heng felt his head explode and his whole body jerked and shook several times.

The group of thunderbolt power had not disappeared, but spread along Lu Heng's limbs and bones, and instantly spread to his whole body!

Hiss~~~

Lu Heng, who was filled with the power of thunder all over his body, sucked in a breath of cold air and felt tingling all over his body.

"I am going to die, with so much thunderbolt power coming out at once, I am going to die!"

Lu Heng despaired.

But immediately afterwards, he noticed something not quite right.

The thunderbolt force that filled his body did not damage his demon body, but slowly integrated into it.

Huh?!

"What is this situation?"

While Lu Heng was bewildered and amazed, a sudden thunderbolt exploded in the sky outside the mountain God temple. A blazing white light flashed, illuminating the heaven and earth in a ghastly white.

Then, a huge thunderbolt cut through heaven and earth and viciously struck down on the earth in front of the temple of Mountain God, finally spreading along the mud all the way to the ground and merging into Lu Heng's body.

"Holy shit! Again?!"

The moment he was struck by lightning, Lu Heng's body twitched again.

He simply did not expect that he could be struck by lightning even if he was hiding so deep underground.

And this time, he clearly felt the painful sensation of his demon body being struck by lightning. This feeling, however, was different from the feeling of being struck by heavenly lightning in the wolf demon's memory.

Although the pain existed, the pain was not strong. And the lightning did not destroy his body, it slowly integrated into his body just like the previous thunderbolt power instead.

He moved his thoughts, and even vaguely felt that he could release the lightning from his body.

And in a trance, he felt that he could rely on these thunderbolts in his body to connect the thunder in the sky!

Realising this, Lu Heng was a little confused.

"What is this about?"

In the wolf demon's memory, demons were clearly the most afraid of lightning. Even if the original wolf demon was successful in his cultivation, he would not dare to go out on a thunderstorm, but would hide underground for fear of being struck by lightning.

But now Lu Heng seemed to be able to control thunder and lightning? Was he still a demon then?

After a few seconds of hesitation, Lu Heng left the earth and returned above ground.

At this time the night sky looked quite terrifying with lightning and thunder, just like silver snakes dancing wildly.

And in the forest the wind howled and the mountains rained like a scene before the end of world.

Standing in the midst of this raging wind and thunder, Lu Heng frowned and tried to hook up the lightning in the sky according to the kind of intuition that appeared vaguely within him.

Then...

"Boom!!!"

A huge thunderbolt exploded, a blazing white lightning bolt lit up the sky and earth and struck the huge white wolf directly in front of the temple of mountain God.

At that moment, Lu Heng's body trembled and his mind went blank instantly.

A huge movement of thunder power surged into his body, almost causing him to burst.

It was true that he can now control lightning, but taking two thunderbolts in a row was beyond his tolerance limit!

Limbs twitching, Lu Heng fell limply in front of the mountain God temple, and shrunk back into the ground. He was afraid that the sky will send another thunderbolt to split him.

This lightning was really not so easy on him.

Lu Heng, whose body was tingling and twitching, thought this in his mind happily, although he was struck by lightning.

Control thunder and lightning!

This is the control of lightning!

Although he did not know if it was caused by crossing over, the current Lu Heng was able to absorb lightning and release the lightning in his body.

Even though taking two thunderbolts was currently the limit, as long as he continued to improve, he would be able to achieve true control of thunderbolts sooner or later.

When the time came to encounter the enemy, he could directly strike out a heavenly lightning bolt. With the fear of thunder among the mountain spirits and demons in this world, as long as Lu Heng was not too reckless, at least he had the capital to live in peace.

If he could constantly absorb thunder and lightning, refine his body, and finally reach the level where he could guide ten thousand thunder surges in one breath, then even if he encountered the legendary demons, Lu Heng could probably also retreat in one piece.

Thinking this in his mind, Lu Heng took a long breath.

On his fourth day of crossing over into a demon, Lu Heng, as a demon in this bizarre world, had finally gained some sense of security.
