Chapter 8 - How about I send heavenly lightning in your area? (2)

The island of the Song family is filled to the brim with bamboo, which gives it the name Thousand Bamboo.

The green bamboo on the island was not just any ordinary bamboo, but rather, it was a rare and precious species that was only found on the Thousand Bamboo Island.

Each bamboo stalks were tall and straight, with leaves that were long and slender, swaying gently in the breeze. The leaves rustled together like the sound of a gentle rain, creating a soothing atmosphere that made one feel at peace.

Numerous mountain peaks on the island were equally as impressive, towering high above the bamboo forest. The peaks were covered with lush vegetation, and the rocky terrain made them look like natural fortresses.

The Thousand Bamboo island is important to the Song family, not because of the scenery, but because their founding ancestor placed great importance on the purple bamboo that occasionally sprouts from the island.

It is due to this 'purple bamboo' that their family situated themselves on this island for thousands of years.

Of course, there were other reasons why the ancestor chose this as their family's main location, but the reason is old as time itself, even the descendant can't discern the true reason.

At this moment, Song Jia's, uncle Jia's true name, faced an unprecedented crisis.

The air around him crackled with electricity, and the hair on his arms stood on end.

The other cultivators on the island were frozen in shock and disbelief. None of them had ever seen anyone summon heavenly lightning before, not even the most powerful cultivators among them.

"Impossible! Even Heaven-immortal can't summon heavenly lightning!" One of them cried out, his voice barely audible over the deafening rumbles of thunder.

But there was no mistaking it. The lightning was not ordinary lightning, but the natural lightning of heaven and earth - heavenly lightning!

The mere thought of it was enough to send chills down their spines. Even if they were to witness it firsthand, they could hardly believe what they were seeing.

The storm clouds grew even darker and more ominous, and the lightning grew more intense. The sound of thunder was so loud that it felt as though it was shaking the very foundations of the island.

The other cultivators watched in awe and terror, knowing full well that if even a spark of heavenly lightning were to strike anywhere close to the island formation, it would melt apart the array like butter.

For a moment, they were struck with a sense of hopelessness and despair. How could they possibly defend against such a powerful force?

Song Yin shivered, then looked at the terrified uncle who rarely gets flustered, and asked, "Uncle Jia, what is going on?!"

"Outer Gods, that senior is an Outer God!" He immediately shouted, then sent Song Yin off toward the main hall of the family's hall, and frowned.

"Is it a coincidence, or did that otherworldly lady summon this lightning at will?" He looked at the laptop on his exquisite wooden table, unable to come with up an answer.

Then, Tulan's soothing voice came through, it was strangely clear and soft, unhindered by the deafening rumbling on Song Yin's side.

"I will give you two breaths of time before striking once, how about it?" Without even looking at the screen, he can clearly tell she had a devious smile on her face from the tone of her voice.

Then, a moment of silence ensues.

He turns his head to look at the clouds above the island and felt dreadful.

It is like bearing the weight of an entire sea!

This sort of pressure caused his loose immortal soul to almost jumped out of his physical body like natural instinct.

Then, a stream of mysterious energy course through his body.

'The purple bamboo stalk? What is this mysterious stream of energy emanating from it?"

At this moment, he already accepted that Tulan truly had the ability to summon heavenly lightning!

He can't help but look back at the purple bamboo stalk again.

It was a tradition for the elders to carry purple bamboo stalks with them everywhere they go. The founding ancestor implemented this practice before he left.

No one knew what it was for, but they still followed his words.

So, every time a new elder was appointed, a ceremony is held, and in that ceremony, they would receive a purple stalk of bamboo that represent their status!

Not long after Song Yin left, she came back. But this time, several figures were following behind her, trotting toward Song Jia's with hurried steps.

"Brother Jia, what is going on? I saw little Yin run to the family hall, summoning all the elders with her royal seal in a hurry." The man who spoke was a burly figure covered in white robes, his face was a bit ragged.

"I already notified all the family members to close off the island and wait for our words, as of this moment, the entire island is completely sealed off from inside and out!"

Besides him, an older white-haired man looked up. Immediately, his flushed face twisted and paled even more, causing the other two to look up as well.

Boom!

It was as if a hammer struck their soul the moment they look directly at the dense formation of dark clouds.

Thanks to the mysterious purple bamboo stark, they recovered in a couple of moments.

Meanwhile, Song Jia looked at their waist with a mysterious glance, and inwardly noted." It seems like the others didn't notice the strange stream of energy from the bamboo stalk… I must ask brother Li about this purple bamboo stalk when he come out of seclusion…"

Song Jia wasn't surprised by their reaction, after they recovered, he explained," This anomaly is a bit strange... I was watching a strange stream that appeared in a new category out of nowhere. At the opening of the stream, there was a mention that they are showcasing an evasive technique! Then, I looked and saw the scenery and surrounding were bizarre, they were streaming on the moon!"

Then, he waved his sleeve, causing the laptop on the table to float toward the four elders.

With their spiritual sense, they could see a beautiful, enchanting woman with her hands behind her back as she stare at the camera, seemingly waiting for a response.

They were stunned by the figure in front of them, after all, even with their experience, it was a miracle to see such a stunning beauty that they'd never heard of!

"Too stunning!" The youngest elder exclaimed, his face a bit flustered.

"No look at that youngster over there, he's playing a game on his phone with a dog!"

At the mention of Yu Yan's spot, they moved their attention toward the ridiculous duo.

It was Yu Yan with his dark masked, cheerily chatting with Gongniu as the latter talked like a normal human with a clear grasp of human language.

"That youngster looks a bit young, is it her disciple?" The burly elder guessed, trying to see through their relationship.

Even with Yu Yan's mask, it was quite easy to tell that he was young from his complexion.

"As for that golden retriever, it must be a spiritual beast, but I've never heard of a beast with the appearance of a golden retriever!"

They clamor, pointing at various strange points in the stream with fervent disbelief.

At this moment, Song Jia's interrupted their discussion with a light cough, causing them to look over.

"No one in the chat believe they were streaming on the moon, so the 'senior' decided to change her approach and do a verification!" Song Jia's changed the way he addressed Tulan to senior, afraid of offending her for not showing enough courtesy.

"Verification to prove she's streaming on the moon, how, and why would this senior need to do this?" Song Yang, the youngest elder, perked his ears, picking up the hints from Song Jia's tone, thus addressing Tulan as senior as well.

"By sending down lightning at the nearby area of any viewer in the stream! All I know is that I decided to test the water and type out our general location." Song Yin's and the elder nodded with their mouth hung.

"Then, she turned her back, pointed at the earth, and smile. Afterward…"

He explained her every action, mimicking the way she spoke and her minute expression, especially the part where she said—

"Your illusion array needs some work, it's a bit crude don't you think?"

Remembering the flashback of that scene again, Song Jia can't help but shiver because of a chill that struck his throat, and cold sweats dripping down his old wrinkled face.

While watching the stream, he thought it was one big joke, and he was waiting for the punchline at the end.

Yet instead of getting a punchline, him and his entire family was about to get punched by lightning!

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

At this moment, their eyes were glued to the stream, trying to come up with a way to appease the senior standing at the center of the screen.

Then, Yu Yan, who was in the background abruptly stopped his action on the side, hovering his index finger above the phone screen, then it quickly recovered and pressed down.

This instant pause went unnoticed by everyone in the stream except for Tulan who had expanded her divine sense, and Gongniu who was in front of him.

"Master, is there something bothering you? Tulan turned to look at Yu Yan and lowered her head.

This shocked the viewers in the stream even more.

Mystic Sword: Big brother, I really admire you to have such a beauty call you master! :Thumbs up:

South River: Brother, where did you learn the technique of wooing beauty? How about we go out for a drink and share some notes? :smile:

"Hehe, you want to learn my skill? How about living for a couple more million years, then you'll have a chance to compete with me!" He seriously tipped.

South River: Even if you don't want to share notes, did you have a give me a one-liner? :cry:

Song Jia, Song Yin, and the elders saw Tulan's respectful attitude toward Yu Yan and rooted their feet to the earth, unable to grasp the head or tails of the situation.

It caused them to feel tenser.

This young man playing around in the background is her master? Then how powerful is that youth?!

This caused them to swallow their saliva dried. It has only been a short moment ever since the stream started, but it had completely left them stunned without words!

Then, their focus was on Yu Yan's every movement.

Yu Yan glanced at Tulan, paused his movement, then turned his attention back to the phone.

"Those people, don't bully them too much." He indifferently relays his message via voice transmission, not offering an explanation.

"Yes, master." She nodded and smiled. With her wit, she could tell that those mortals had some fate with her master somewhere in the past, but she didn't want to pry too deep into Yu Yan's matter, thus, she pretended to not be interested.

At this moment, Yu Yan had other thoughts.

Because the Immortal-grade treasure is connected to him, their divine sense was in a way, shared with him.

When the purple stalk of bamboo presence appeared and dissipated the soul-luring power of Tulan's heavenly lightning, he was shocked!

"Why is that Purple Bane-Lightning Golden Bamboo here?" He solemnly frowned, then mused," It seems like I have to pay a visit to that little cultivator island..."
