Chapter 340 The tingling sensation quickly turned into a pleasant sourness.
They're just a bunch of idiots, handing over the magic stone only to get struck by lightning.
The group of immortals arrived at the same place as the previous group of immortals to get used to the intense sensation of being struck by lightning.
An earlier immortal shared his experience: "The thunder comes in bursts. Take advantage of the lull in the thunder and quickly circulate your immortal energy."
"Yes, meditation speeds up the circulation of energy."
"There's so much thunder right now, quickly channel your immortal energy into your skin, damn, it feels so good, hahaha..."
"Ha ha……"
Like all the immortals, Zhong Lingxin moved a distance away from each other.
Just then, a voice rang out above everyone's heads: "Welcome to Thunder Mountain Body Tempering. Immortals, please act according to your abilities and do not be greedy for thunder and rush forward, so as to avoid causing unnecessary damage."
When tempering the body at Leishan, all immortals should keep a distance so that they can absorb more of the surrounding lightning and achieve the best tempering effect.
Fighting is forbidden on Leishan Mountain. When fighting occurs, the circulation of immortal energy will attract the surrounding lightning, which can easily cause a lightning waterfall. Every year, immortals die because of fighting that causes a lightning waterfall.
Therefore, for the safety of all immortals, firstly, please act according to your abilities and do not be reckless; secondly, please maintain a proper distance to achieve the best effect of body tempering; thirdly, fighting is prohibited, otherwise you will bear the consequences.
I'll say it three times because it's important: First...
The first immortal looked up at the sky and said, "They broadcast this every day, I've heard it three times already. Damn it, why don't they change it to a pretty girl's voice? This dry, unsatisfying voice sounds like some old woman's!"
The immortals were all amused.
The lightning that struck me didn't seem to hurt as much anymore.
But after only a short while, a newly arrived immortal started complaining: "Damn it, why does it hurt so much! It hurts even more than the tribulation lightning during advancement."
An immortal laughed and said, "I can tell you come from a great family. When you advanced, your immortal robes and array plates must have shielded you from the lightning."
The crowd burst into laughter again.
Zhong Lingxin stood quietly not far from everyone.
Lightning struck her, its effects fine and tingling.
The tingling sensation made her scratch her arm a couple of times.
A sharp-eyed immortal noticed Zhong Lingxin's movements and asked with a smile, "Little fairy, have you undergone body tempering? Unlike us, we're trembling in pain."
Zhong Lingxin smiled and nodded: "My family has given me medicinal baths since I was a child, so this place can still hold up."
She spoke as she walked inside.
The lightning here wasn't as bad as the lightning-inducing room she stayed in last night.
After traveling about a hundred feet, Zhong Lingxin noticed that the lightning had become noticeably thicker, and the sky above her head had darkened considerably.
Lightning bolts, as thick as a little finger, fell one after another.
Not far ahead of her, she saw another group of immortals.
Some of these immortals were facing the lightning overhead, while others had just been struck by lightning and were circulating their energy while trying to dodge it.
A fairy chuckled, "Hey little fairy, what's your name? The lightning is a bit sparse here, so be careful to avoid it."
Upon hearing the kind reminder, Zhong Lingxin smiled and said thank you.
The lightning here was similar to the lightning she experienced in the lightning room last night, and also similar to the first lightning bolt she encountered during her tribulation.
She rushed towards a bolt of lightning.
Lightning struck her head, traveling rapidly along her scalp and throughout her entire body.
The tingling sensation made her shudder.
In the distance, the immortals who saw her approaching all burst into laughter.
Zhong Lingxin smiled as well.
If others have no ill intentions, she naturally won't cause trouble.
In the distance, several immortals dressed in identical attire hurriedly carried out an immortal who was covered in blood and gore.
Everyone quickly made way.
"They brought one out so early today."
“I think he looks like that bearded fellow Daoist who went in the day before yesterday. Do you think he looks like him?”
"That's him. He was laughing at us the day before yesterday, but I never expected him to be carried out like this today."
"Sigh, I really want to get a lightning protection suit. Look at those guards in Thunder Continent City, they run through the lightning like nothing happened."
"Nonsense, they're wearing lightning protection clothing, of course they're fine."
"You should save your breath. We came here specifically to get struck by lightning. I heard that those lightning protection suits aren't very comfortable to wear, they're really stuffy."
As the group was talking, several more immortals emerged from inside.
When everyone looked over, they saw a group of immortals who were able to walk out on their own.
However, their faces showed pain, and they walked with difficulty.
An immortal asked, "Fellow Daoist, where have you wandered off to?"
Several immortals looked at them, and one of them replied, "It's just ahead, the yellow sand field."
Everyone was silent.
They had all looked at the map; the sand dunes were indeed not far from them.
Upon seeing this group of immortals emerge, they lost interest in chatting and began to focus intently on tempering their bodies.
Zhong Lingxin chose a spot not too far from the crowd, sat down cross-legged, and neither dodged nor avoided the lightning. She focused on guiding the lightning that struck her body through her meridians in her dantian.
Of course, she wasn't completely unprepared; Lele was hidden inside the Nine-Story Pagoda, watching everything outside.
After sitting for a day, Zhong Lingxin felt that the lightning here had no effect on her at all, so she stood up and walked forward.
After walking for more than a mile, we arrived at the yellow sand field.
There are many immortals in the yellow sand field.
Most immortals choose to temper their bodies here after entering Leishan.
Several immortals who recovered from the lightning strikes did not heal as quickly as those who were injured, and had to retreat, leaving Thunder Mountain with regret.
Although the yellow sand field was large, the immortals inside rarely spoke; they were all grimacing as they tempered their bodies.
Zhong Lingxin found a spot and, like all the immortals, greeted a bolt of lightning, then chose a place without lightning to circulate and absorb it.
The lightning bolts here are as thick as eggs; when they strike you, they sting painfully.
Zhong Lingxin welcomes what she needs and then it starts operating; once it starts operating, she welcomes what she needs again.
She didn't know how many lightning strikes she had encountered, nor how many days had passed.
Not far from her, the immortals who were undergoing body tempering were attacked several times.
Zhong Lingxin didn't care at all.
Now, the lightning strikes her, but it no longer hurts; instead, the tingling sensation makes her scalp tingle.
She continued walking inside.
Ahead, the lightning wasn't as thick as the lightning in the yellow sand field, but it was noticeably more dense.
If before, every three steps would bring a flash of lightning, now every step is accompanied by thunder.
The tingling sensation quickly turned into a pleasant sourness.
Tiny cuts began to appear on her skin.
Zhong Lingxin accelerated the circulation of her immortal energy to resist the pain caused by the lightning striking her body.
Even so, the number of wounds on her skin continued to increase.
Her immortal essence was being consumed faster and faster.
She had to take healing pills to speed up the healing of her wounds.
Sometimes, with multiple wounds, she has to step back to heal.
Only after the dense lightning struck her did she clearly feel an increase in her physical strength.
