Side Character Transmigrations: The Final Boss is No Joke

CHAPTER 25

[Host, do you wish to purchase a ‘Lightning Rod’?]

‘Wha’s that? Why would I buy a lightning rod? I thought Ye Qingqiu was the one getting struck?’

[Do you wish to purchase the consumable, ‘Lightning Rod’?]

System, very professionally, repeated its question.

The lightning bolts had already vanished. Shi Sheng looked at the sky. ‘It’s clear for miles so where did that lightning come from? Were they leftovers from Ye Qingqiu’s ascension tribulation? Also, what would I want a lightning rod for? To stick on my head?’

“What was that just now? I though the tribulation was over? Why was there still lightning?”

“I don’t know. Never heard of this happening before.”

“Did you guys notice those lightning bolts were thicker than the ones from earlier? And I feel like they’re even more powerful as well. I was standing so far away yet even I felt uncomfortable.”

“Some people near the front look like they’ve spit out blood due to the pressure.”

“What?! That powerful?! Just what kind of lightning was that?! Is Sect Head Ye going to become a G.o.d?!”

“Quit joking. The G.o.d World’s been gone for ages, how would she become a G.o.d?”

The last sentence was accompanied by scoffing laughter.

The person who had spoken had only been speaking casually but after having been humiliated by others, he became p.i.s.sed off and started arguing. But just as it was about to evolve into fisticuffs.

Darkness suddenly befell the place as the clear skies were replaced by thick dark clouds. Those clouds seemed to have come out of nowhere as they appeared in the blink of an eye.

Shi Sheng would never have expected those lightning bolts to be coming for her!

The moment the storm clouds appeared, Feng Ci was repelled by a formless energy. At the same time, more than ten lightning bolts descended from the heavens without warning.

These lightning bolts were larger than Ye Qingqiu’s. ‘Dammit, why are more than ten striking me at the same time while Ye Qingqiu got to deal with them one at a time?! This is too biased!!!’

The lightning was unavoidable; the bolts wouldn’t disappear unless they struck their target.

‘Those ten or so bolts before were clearly for the sake of clearing out the area! Now I know why System wanted me to get a lightning rod! But why isn’t it reacting now ah?! I want to buy a lightning rod!!!’

From the outside, the area around Shi Sheng was surrounded by a purple light, blocking the view of the person inside.

Though the noise wasn’t as loud as during Ye Qingqiu’s tribulation, everyone there could feel that the pressure was much greater. They all retreated to a safer distance.

Jun Wuqi and the rest of the Demon Race present also retreated.

“Demon Lord, this tribulation seems a bit off.” One of the older and more experienced demons spoke, “Shang Shu and Ye Qingqiu were both at the Immortalisation stage. Ye Qingqiu’s tribulation was already much stronger than a normal tribulation. According to logic, Shang Shu’s tribulation shouldn’t be as strong but now it’s clear the power of the tribulation has increased by a fold! Could it be she is one of those favoured by Heaven?”

Everyone knew that those who were favoured by the Heavens received the blessings and protection of the Heavenly Dao. But because of this, those people’s tribulations were much harder than normal.
