Chapter 478: The Strength of the Puppet!
Initially, Yun Shan had already given himself an answer deep down, but in the next moment, his expression suddenly changed drastically.
"No, this person is too strange!" Yun Shan exclaimed in surprise.
Under his observation, the blurry figure in the sky didn't emit any aura. No matter what, even if a person could conceal their aura, the essence of life energy couldn't be hidden.
"No aura, yet able to move like this..."
Yun Shan squinted his eyes and carefully observed again. Moments later, he finally came to a conclusion: "Could this be the legendary puppet?"
"Sending a puppet to withstand Pill Thunder—such a tactic shows utter disregard for the Pill Thunder!"
"Boom!"
Under countless watchful eyes, a thunderous crack suddenly erupted from the thunderclouds in the sky, followed by a massive silver lightning bolt as thick as a thigh. It tore through the dark clouds and shot towards the ground like a giant silver python.
As the silver lightning descended, the silver figure in the sky made no attempt to dodge. Instead, it adjusted its direction and used its body to block the silver lightning.
"Bang!"
The silver lightning struck the silver figure's body directly, producing an exceptionally dull sound that echoed around.
Seeing this, everyone's hearts nearly skipped a beat.
"Hiss!"
Great Elder Yun Ling gasped, his eyes full of disbelief. How could anyone withstand Pill Thunder with their body? Doing so was practically courting death.
"Elder Gu He was struck by such terrifying lightning. Could he be in danger?"
"How can anyone directly use their body to take on Pill Thunder?"
Everyone was deeply worried for "Gu He."
Under their gaze, the silver figure was knocked down nearly dozens of meters by the silver lightning before forcibly stabilizing itself. At this moment, countless silver electric currents flickered on its body, continuously invading its interior. If it were a normal person, their skin would have been torn apart by now.
However, those closer to Yun Shan saw clearly that the puppet in the sky didn't seem to be damaged at all. On the contrary, its slightly dried-up body gradually strengthened under the erosion of the lightning.
"It's actually absorbing the power of the Pill Thunder?"
Yun Shan looked at the puppet struck by the silver lightning, yet unscathed and continuously absorbing the lightning's power, with a hint of shock in his eyes.
"Boom!"
Another extremely thick and powerful silver lightning bolt struck. The puppet, which had been slightly pushed back and descending, charged up once more.
"Elder Gu He is fine. He's going up to confront the Pill Thunder again!"
"That's great. I didn't expect Elder Gu He's strength to reach such a level. If that Pill Thunder hit us, we would turn to ashes instantly!"
Seeing "Gu He" uninjured and continuing to charge upward, the elders and disciples of Yun Lan Sect couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As the silver puppet easily caught the second silver lightning bolt, the dark clouds in the sky began to churn violently. In an instant, three more lightning bolts, even thicker than the previous two, burst out from the clouds with a deafening roar!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Facing the three silver lightning bolts, the silver puppet acted like a lightning rod, directly attracting all three bolts to itself.
Under the fierce impact of the three lightning bolts, the silver puppet's body kept descending. The last bolt even slammed it hard onto the invisible barrier above Nine-Colored Valley.
Of course, the silver puppet's descent to this height was beyond the view of Yun Lan Sect's elders, disciples, and Yun Shan. They all assumed it had fallen to the ground.
When the silver puppet disappeared from their sight, everyone's hearts pounded once again.
Gu He is currently the greatest "foundation" of Yun Lan Sect. For any reason, no one in Yun Lan Sect wanted to see anything happen to him!
"Elder Gu He, please don't let anything happen to you!" Everyone in Yun Lan Sect prayed fervently.
Meanwhile, the silver puppet, after being thrown onto the invisible barrier above Nine-Colored Valley, rose directly into the sky again once the silver lightning dissipated. Its body, emitting a brilliant silver light, floated in the sky like an indomitable war god, majestic and awe-inspiring.
"Elder Gu He is up again!"
As the silver puppet charged upward once more, reappearing in the sight of Yun Shan and the many elders and disciples of Yun Lan Sect, their emotions, completely tied to Gu He's fate, rose and fell, creating a roller coaster of feelings.
In the sky, seeing the silver puppet's provocation, the Pill Thunder seemed to become furious. Massive bolts of lightning continuously spewed from the dark clouds, striking the silver puppet's body like a machine gun. This spectacular scene left everyone in Yun Lan Sect feeling breathless.
The sky was filled with dark clouds, and the silver lightning bolts slithered like silver serpents, then descended like an overwhelming flood, causing the entire world to tremble slightly.
Under the torrential downpour of silver lightning, a brilliant silver figure floated in the sky, attracting all the surrounding silver lightning to itself!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Each time a silver lightning bolt struck from the sky, the silver figure was hit with such force that it was pushed down sharply. The dull sound of their contact was enough to make one's scalp tingle. If a normal person had tried to withstand it, they would have been charred to a crisp instantly.
Yet, despite the continuous bombardment, the silver figure showed no signs of discomfort. Instead, its momentum grew stronger under the nourishment of the lightning.
"This puppet must have the strength to rival at least a five-star Dou Ancestor!"
On the giant rock, Yun Shan's pupils dilated. From his vantage point, clearer than that of others in Yun Lan Sect, he could sense an overwhelming aura from the puppet's flesh and energy, despite its lack of human aura and Dou Qi.
"Boom!"
After the silver puppet caught the last lightning bolt, the thick dark clouds in the sky gradually stopped churning and quickly thinned out. Beams of light penetrated through the clouds.
"Haha, Liu Ling, your efforts during this period have truly paid off!"
At this moment, a hearty laugh echoed from within Nine-Colored Valley.
