Chapter 1136 No Escape
At that moment, Alex’s mind raced with numerous escape planes. He could not simply sit there andawait his fate. Despite his current abilities, he sensed an underlying danger in the air that urged him totake action.
At first, Alex attempted to break the air barrier with his Mortal Force, but it proved to be futile. So, heswitched to another approach-digging a hole underground to escape before the lightning struck.
As Alex prepared to take action, he suddenly discovered that the air barrier surrounding him extendedto even beneath the ground. It felt like a prison, preventing him from escaping. A sense of helplessnesswashed over him as he realized he was trapped, unable to break free.
Alex sat on the ground and sighed. It seems there’s no way I can escape these five lightning strikes.
Accepting his inability to escape, Alex chose to endure the situation. He did not believe a mere halfGrandmaster was able to kill him with the Lightning Tribulation. If I were to perish from this, it wouldonly demonstrate my weakness as a Grandmaster.
As Alex calmly awaited the impending thunder and lightning, the sky filled with dark clouds. Suddenly, apowerful bolt of lightning descended from above, aiming directly at the top of his head.
Faced with the sudden strike, Alex had nowhere to hide and could only rely on his physical strength towithstand the damage caused by the thunder and lightning to his body.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning struck, and Alex felt as if his entire body had been electrocuted. His clothes wereinstantly ignited by the powerful lightning, and even his hair did not escape the calamity, as it was allburned to ashes.
After the lightning strike, Alex still stood tall. Although his body had been charred black by the lightning.he continued to stand upright.
The thunder and lightning surged with unprecedented power, engulfing Alex’s body. The lightning strikesurpassed even the intensity of the thunder and lightning of the Doomsday Prison’s iron chains.
Even so, Alex managed to withstand it. Although the lightning strike was powerful, it was still not asintense as he had imagined.
Following that, another bolt of lightning strike descended from the sky, striking Alex once more. Thistime, its power was even more formidable than before, leaving a crater beneath Alex’s feet.
Enduring the aftermath of the lightning strike, his body could not help but sway slightly, yet he still didnot collapse.
Vladimir, witnessing Alex’s resilient state amidst the intense lightning, was taken aback by theastonishing level of his physical strength. It surpassed the elder’s expectations and left him astounded.
Vladimir did not believe someone as young as Alex could truly possess such strength to survive underthe Lightning Tribulation. So what if he could withstand two lightning strikes? The power of each strikewill be much stronger than the last
Boom!
The dragon charged with high electricity struck Alex once again, causing a surge of power that even
Vladimir, Demetrius, and Eve could feel from a near distance. The intensity of this lightning strikesurpassed the previous two.
The intense electric current, though not directly targeting them, tingled on the surface of their skin,inducing a numbing sensation. They realized if this was the impact from a distance of more than tennovelbin
meters, the experience for Alex, who had been directly struck by the thunder and lightning, must beunimaginable.
The three of them turned their gaze toward Alex’s location, their eyes filled with concern and curiosity.The immense power of the lightning strike had enveloped Alex, creating a thick cloud of black smokethat obscured their view, preventing them from discerning his current condition.
The faint black smoke dissipated, and the three of them stared unblinkingly at what lay ahead.
Amidst the smoke, Alex knelt on the ground with both knees, his hands pressed against the earth. Thisthird lightning strike had caused him considerable damage. After a violent bout of coughing, Alex slowlystood up straight again.
Feeling the overwhelming power, Alex realized it surpassed what a half-Grandmaster could generate.He was certain the three talismans held by Vladimir were not of his own creation.
Recalling the death of Tris in his hands, Alex noticed there was a vast difference between the twotalisgnans.
But at this moment, there was no time for Alex to worry about those things. He had already enduredthree lightning strikes, and there were still two more awaiting him.
Faced with the last two lightning strikes, Alex did not take them lightly at all. Unlike the previous threetimes when he was unprepared, this time Alex deliberately circulated his Mortal Force throughout hisbody, enveloping himself entirely to withstand the next strike.
“The kid can still stand up! His physical strength is terrifying!” exclaimed Demetrius in disbelief, his eyeswide with shock.
Vladimir’s face darkened initially, but then a confident smile appeared as he remembered the power ofthe Five Lightning Talisman. The remaining strength might be terrifying, but he had faith in thetalisman’s capabilities.
