Chapter 644 - 596: Belief Power Hidden Danger (Part 3)

Lou Yi then directed a thread of Belief Power onto his main body, simultaneously releasing its aura.

At this moment, the ’attention’ of the cloud above shifted to the main body, starting to gather once again to brew heavenly thunder.

Meanwhile, as the main body activated the Disguise Talent, the clone simultaneously disabled its Disguise Talent.

The ’attention’ of the clouds above then shifted back to the clone.

’Thus, when the clone triggers the Heavenly Tribulation, I can stand in its place to resist.

After all, the main body has Anti-Thunder, tenacity, and other talents, its resistance to lightning far exceeds that of ordinary people. The Elder of the Holy Light also mentioned the power of the first heavenly thunder won’t be too strong.’

’If the main body can’t withstand it, it can immediately activate Disguise Talent and stealth, then throw out the clone as a scapegoat... at worst, I’ll lose a clone.’

’There is risk, but it should not be big. For the trump card that is Belief Power, it’s worth it.’

Although Lou Yi made up his mind, he decided not to start testing recklessly but to prepare further.

To gather more information, he considered traveling to Huai City to retrieve the communication talisman left by the Elder of the Holy Light and contact him.

However, perhaps he doesn’t need to go himself; he could proceed through the believers?

Thinking of this, Lou Yi’s clone immersed his mind into the Faith Liquid Block and connected with the corpulent man in the Red Hero Shrine miles away.

’Touch that table leg.’ Lou Yi subtly influenced the man’s subconscious.

He bent down involuntarily, reaching for a table leg of the rosewood table, upon which was the communication talisman left by the Elder of the Holy Light.

As soon as the corpulent man touched the communication talisman with his fingers, Lou Yi extended his mind outward, connecting with the Elder of the Holy Light.

"Red Hero, have you changed your mind?"

"I am not well-informed on matters regarding heavenly thunder; I wonder if you have any relevant records, Elder?"

"There should be some; I’ll find them when I return."

"Thank you, Elder."

That night, the Elder of the Holy Light transmitted quite a bit of information through the communication talisman to Lou Yi.

’The Corpse-Driving Sect indeed doesn’t treat me as an outsider,’ Lou Yi thought.

The communication talisman delivered by the Elder of the Holy Light is a high-grade talisman capable of transmitting vast amounts of information upon mental contact.

He relayed much valuable information through the communication talisman to Lou Yi, broadening his perspective significantly.

’Due to the condensation of Belief Power, any single heavenly thunder’s potency equals an all-out strike from a Fourth Layer of the Spirit Platform Thunder Cultivator, with quantity uncertain, ranging from as few as three or four strikes to as many as a dozen, hiss...

Following each encounter, the intensity increases.

After approximately seven or eight times, its power becomes equivalent to the Golden Core Thunder Tribulation.

Beyond that, it’s even more terrifying than the Golden Core Thunder Tribulation, assuredly fatal.’

’Before experiencing heavenly thunder, specific talismans or Magic Treasures can be used to weaken it first... such materials specifically targeting heavenly thunder are quite precious, and once available on the market, they are quickly swept clean.’

’The most common item for resisting heavenly thunder is the drive-thunder talisman; the higher the grade, the better, though it only suits early-stage weak heavenly thunder.’

’The power of heavenly thunder greatly differs from the Thunder Magic conjured by cultivators, not only penetrating to the marrow but also targeting the Divine Soul...’

After obtaining extensive information, Lou Yi then prepared accordingly.

Leveraging Red Hero’s wealth, he procured some drive-thunder talismans and various Defensive Magical Artifacts from auctions outside.

Simultaneously, with all the Firm Metal on hand, he crafted a sharp and long ’lightning rod,’ placing it at an open area atop a barren mountain intended for the tribulation.

Over ten days later, the clone’s accumulated Belief Power became denser.

Upon the clone releasing its entire aura.

Instantly, the sky overhead clustered with dark clouds black as ink, air stagnating around, and silence permeated.

Within the clouds, glaring white light repeatedly flashed deeply, invoking dread.

’Crack!’

Subsequently, a jagged blue-violet heavenly thunder formed instantly, descending from the sky.

Carrying an indescribable terrifying aura, it seemed intent on obliterating everything it encountered!
