Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 255 - 135 Finished, Struck by Lightning! _2

Promises were made to avoid any impact on other countries or any harm to tourists, as well as issues of post-disaster compensation and reconstruction were addressed one by one.

Support for repatriation of citizens from various countries was also included, with comprehensive statements made to the global media.

Among them, the Divine Light Country was the most unfortunate.

The Jingli Mountain, which had been dormant for hundreds of years, suddenly showed signs of eruption today!

The losses after the eruption would be immeasurable, at least setting the economy of the Divine Light Country back by several years, if not decades, requiring a series of efforts to recover.

Boom boom boom!!!

Boom boom boom!!!

......

The surface of the volcano trembled again, this time with a greater amplitude than before, causing the ground to sway a few times!

"It’s going to erupt, it’s going to erupt!"

"Quick, quick, the show is about to start!"

"Hurry up, live broadcast!"

"It’s the end of the world~~~"

"The Divine Light Country is sinking~~~"

"What the hell are you talking about!!? What does a volcanic eruption have to do with the Divine Light Country sinking?"

"Aren’t you afraid of being arrested for mocking the Divine Light Country like this?"

"Afraid of what, can the Divine Light Country really send people to the Great Xia Kingdom to arrest people?"

"Hurry up and erupt, we’ve been watching for so long!"

...

...

Netizens from all over the world were clamoring, sparking widespread discussions. Most were hoping for the Jingli Mountain volcano to erupt soon so they could witness the spectacle firsthand.

Some netizens were praying that this volcano would not erupt, because if such a large volcano as Jingli Mountain were to erupt, it would inevitably trigger a series of chain reactions.

At this moment, Lin Beichen could not see the comments from netizens on the live streaming platform. He was focused on the Fire Element in his heart—he was just this close to succeeding!

The recent massive tremor of Jingli Mountain also affected him.

The ground where Lin Beichen had been sitting cross-legged collapsed directly, and the surrounding soil rolled down toward the center of the crater, further expanding the volcanic crater!

If Lin Beichen were still lost in his Enlightenment earlier, he might have fallen into the lava along with the surrounding soil, turning into ashes like scattered sand!

Fortunately, he sensed the earthquake just in time and, with his super fast speed, retreated a distance at an astonishing speed, escaping this ground collapse.

"Just a little bit more, should I hold on or not?"

At this moment, Lin Beichen was a bit hesitant. The lava in the crater in front of him was increasingly unstable, as if it could explode at any moment!

But it also seemed that the crater was repeatedly on the verge of erupting without actually doing so, unpredictable!

Rumble~~

Sometime later, a thick mass of dark clouds gathered at the top of the mountain. It was hard to tell whether they were clouds formed from the volcanic ash floating up or caused by some other circumstances, but lightning seemed to flash within the clouds.

After a while, a large mass of dark clouds gathered from around, as if some force was attracting them there. It could also be due to the high temperature at the crater, creating a void in the sky that the dark clouds converged to fill.

At this moment, Lin Beichen couldn’t worry about all that. Instead of worrying about the volcano’s eruption, it felt more reassuring to break through to the Fire Element Third Realm.

So he found another place with relatively solid ground and sat down cross-legged again. As soon as he closed his eyes, Lin Beichen was astonished!

Here, besides sensing the Fire Element, he also sensed the Electric Element!

Of course, compared to the Fire Element, the concentration of the Fire Element here was many times higher than that of the Electric Element, perhaps due to the rare Electric Element brought by the clouds formed in the sky just now.

"Hmm!?"

"No, something’s wrong!"

"Why has the Electric Element suddenly become so dense? It has multiplied!?"

Lin Beichen was astonished!

In an instant, the Electric Element around him multiplied, and it seemed to be descending from the sky!

"It’s still increasing!"

"The Fire Element! The Fire Element is also becoming increasingly dense!?"

"What’s going on!?"

Lin Beichen was momentarily puzzled by the changes occurring, for such a phenomenon had never occurred in the previous two times.

"Never mind, breaking through is the priority!"

"Just in time to make a final impact on the key area of the heart with the increasingly dense Fire Element."

Sensing the pervasive Fire Elements, as numerous as the stars in the sky, Lin Beichen drew them into his body as he inhaled, and they continuously flowed in.

His heart now resembled a furnace, absorbing and refining the surrounding Fire Element, with the refined essence strengthening his heart.

Although Lin Beichen was in extreme pain, he was also relishing the comfort brought by his increasingly powerful heart!

"I broke through!"

Suddenly, Lin Beichen felt the furnace-like absorption of the Fire Element in his heart reach saturation. In an instant, he broke through to the Third Realm of the Fire Element!

It was as if a narrow passage suddenly opened up wide, enabling the blood to flow more forcefully to his limbs and meridians, making each heartbeat stronger, bringing an unprecedented sense of comfort. His whole body was filled with vitality, as if he had unlimited strength and endless energy!

This made Lin Beichen very pleasantly surprised. Breaking through to the Third Realm of the Fire Element seemed to give him a new understanding of the path of cultivation. He discovered that as his heart broke through to a new realm through this tempering, his entire constitution also improved.

It’s not surprising since the heart is the main organ connecting the limbs and meridians, and its breakthrough would naturally lead to an overall improvement of other parts.

At this moment, Lin Beichen opened his eyes and looked around.

The scorching lava resembled molten metal, and the central area of the crater looked like a blazing sun sunk into the ground, dazzling and hard to look at.

The surrounding surface was scorched red, and even the thick rock under Lin Beichen’s feet was cracking with fissures.

"Having reached the Third Realm of the Fire Element, my ability to resist high temperatures has also improved. When I first stepped onto the crater, the wind felt like a pot of boiling water hitting me!"

"Now, it’s different. It seems I can slowly adapt and accept it!"

Lin Beichen muttered to himself, standing up quietly to feel the changes in himself.

In reality, what he didn’t know was that the temperature around him had already doubled or tripled compared to before. Only because of his improved resistance to high temperatures upon reaching the Third Realm of the Fire Element did he not feel the surrounding heat.

If it were an ordinary person standing there, their contact area would have been burnt to a crisp in an instant!

Bang bang!!

Suddenly, before Lin Beichen could react, a bolt of lightning struck down from the dark clouds above, directly aimed at Lin Beichen!

The entire sky was illuminated for a moment by that lightning!

That lightning struck just a meter in front of Lin Beichen, leaving a deep hole in the ground!

"Thunder Tribulation!?"

Lin Beichen stared at the sky in shock. The thick dark clouds covered the sky, blocking out the sunlight. Lightning flashed within the clouds continuously, illuminating the sky repeatedly!

Coupled with the crimson light from the crater below shining upwards into the clouds, it looked like the beginning of the world!

"The temperature around the crater should have already evaporated any low clouds. How can clouds still gather here!? This doesn’t make sense!"

"Hmm!? No way!"

Lin Beichen looked up at the sky, and another bright flash of lightning seemed to be gathering power.

He instinctively moved away from his previous spot, just in time to avoid another bolt of lightning that struck right where he had been standing.

"Is this Thunder Tribulation meant for me?"

"No wonder I felt the Electric Element multiplying as I was about to break through!"

"But it also seems like the volcano is helping me resist something!"

"The dried-out ground can’t conduct electricity, and the surging high temperatures of the volcano peak, like a sun, seem to have reduced the scale of the clouds!"

What Lin Beichen didn’t notice was that the scene of the successive lightning strikes was perfectly captured by the reporters in the helicopter circling the volcano.
