Walker Of The Blue Sky

Chapter 315: Ch 315: Authority of Lightning

Serafina had been walking for a long time. She had already reached the border between the second and third layers of the lightning domain. The air here was heavy, filled with the constant crackling of electricity.

She had been careful with every step, but then, something strange happened.

The lightning bolts, which had been falling like a lightning storm, suddenly became chaotic. Some bolts vanished before they could even reach the ground. Others twisted in strange directions, as if some unseen force was pulling them away. The dark clouds in the sky, which had always been thick and endless, began to shift as well. Sometimes, they grew even darker, as if gathering more power. But in the next second, they thinned, revealing glimpses of the sky beyond.

Serafina stopped in her tracks when she felt the sudden shift in atmosphere. She narrowed her eyes.

What is going on?

She had never seen anything like this before. As far as she knew, the lightning domain here had always followed strict rules. The second layer had lightning every minute. The third layer had lightning every few seconds. The fourth layer was a storm of endless destruction. But now... everything was different. It was as if the balance of this place had been disturbed by some unknown force.

A sudden chill ran down her spine.

She clenched her fists and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. But no matter how much she tried, a foreboding feeling grew inside her. She felt uneasy.

"No... I cannot fail just like that. I’m about to make it to the third layer. Give me a few days and I’m sure to enter the central area of the third layer. At that time, I can use Sky Force Orb to forcefully enter the fourth layer. Then, even if it meant risking my life, I would have made sure to obtain the Dark Moon and escape this place."

She was reluctant to accept that she would fail after arriving to this step. It had taken her three entire days to reach here after all. Not to mention, the burnt and destrucive power of lightning bolts she suffered in these three days were not a good experience.

Time had lost its meaning in Emrys’s suffering.

By now, Emrys’s screams had long faded. In fact, his screams had been replaced by heavy and ragged breaths. His body had stopped twitching violently, but the pain remained. It was no longer the unbearable agony of before, but a deep burning sensation that spread through every cell of his body.

His flesh felt as if it had melted and been reforged.

Emrys’s current state was bizarre. He was neither conscious nor unconscious.

The sea of pure lightning energy was nowhere to be seen anymore.

Every drop of the sea had completely fused with Emrys’s body. The violent storm of lightning energy that had once surrounded him could not be seen now. The sky above him was empty, and the ground beneath him was no longer covered in raging lightning waves.

Instead, Emrys stood alone in this vast, empty space.

His body which was shaking from unbearable pain slowly began to recover. But the deep burning sensation still lingered.

As Emrys slowly regained his strength, he took a deep breath. His lungs burned slightly, but they no longer felt weak. Power surged through his veins like a mighty river.

Slowly, he clenched his fist.

As his fist was clenched, the air around his hand crackled. A small spark of silver lightning appeared between his fingers. It was gentle but filled with endless power.

He lifted his head. His golden eyes glowed brightly.

At the same time, a translucent interface flashed before his eyes.

[Authority of Lightning: Level 2]

Not only had he gained authority over lightning, but Emrys also noticed that his cosmic cultivation had advanced somehow after enduring the relentless assault of endless lightning.

Emrys immediately looked at his information panel.

It is worth mentioning that the authority of lightning Emrys obtained was already Level 2, comparable to his authority over space.

In terms of the cultivation realm, his Cosmic Cultivation was above his Soul Cultivation before. But after he fused with Lu Moyu’s two-ninth soul, his Soul Cultivation surpassed that of his Cosmic Cultivation.

But now, his Cosmic Cultivation was on par with his Soul Cultivation.

Emrys smiled brightly.

Soul Masters above Mystical Mist Soul Masters have to comprehend the Laws of the Universe to strengthen themselves.

When a Soul Master ascends to the Spiritarium and becomes a Divine Light Soul Master, they have to comprehend the Rules of the Cosmic Field (Spiritarium).

However, Emrys was different.

First of all, his strength had increased so rapidly that he had no time to comprehend the laws of the universe or the rules of the Spiritarium. Even if he had the time and attempted to understand them, a mysterious force would still prevent him from touching upon the laws of the universe and the rules of Spiritarium.

"Authority" was fundamentally different from Laws and Rules.

Although he had obtained the Authority of Space and Lightning from the Space Disk and the Silver Ball, it did grant him power greater than what he could have achieved by comprehending the laws of the universe and the rules of the Spiritarium.

What is more, as long as the level of his authority increases, the extent to which he can manipulate and control the said "authority" will also increase.

When Emrys shifted his gaze to his surroundings, he found that he was no longer inside the Silver Ball.

In fact, Silver Ball was nowhere to be seen. It appeared to have disappeared completely.

Furthermore, something seems to be very wrong with his surroundings.
