Chapter 544: Black Cloud and Lightning

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Dakota immediately discovered Chu Nan’s change in direction.

Following the direction Chu Nan flew in, he quickly discovered the large dark cloud in the distant sky and frowned.

Could it be that that cunning kid was going to play some tricks again?

After thinking for a moment, he immediately changed direction and chased after him.

Even if that kid had any more tricks, Dakota did not think there was a problem.

In the end, the difference in strength between the two sides was so great that it could not be made up for with just some tricks.

The dark cloud looked very close, but it was actually dozens of kilometers away. Dakota still maintained his normal speed and chased after Chu Nan. Both sides spent a few minutes before arriving at the dark cloud.

Due to the existence of the dark clouds, the surrounding sky became dark.

Dakota’s vision was also obstructed because of this. He saw that the black dot representing Chu Nan suddenly drew an arc and flew into the sky.

Just as he was wondering what Chu Nan wanted to do, he saw that his speed did not slow down at all and he actually rushed into the dark clouds in the sky!

Dakota could not help but be stunned.

Although to these Void Break Martial Artists who had already tempered their bodies and broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate and could interact with the spatial energy of the outside world without any barriers, although the dark clouds were densely covered in extremely high-pressure lightning, it was not a threat to them. However, if they entered the dark clouds and were attacked by the dense lightning, their bodies would still be damaged to a certain extent.

Even if that kid had an extremely powerful recovery ability and could even recover in an extremely short period of time from a fatal injury, it was impossible for him to not consume his Internal Breath.

The better defense method was to produce an energy shield that directly isolated the lightning. It also required a large amount of Internal Breath.

No matter how one looked at it, this kid’s actions were very unwise.

He had already exhausted a large amount of Internal Breath because of his escape just now and the previous battle. If he darted into the black cloud like this, wouldn’t he be courting death?

Dakota thought for a moment and felt that the only explanation was that Chu Nan wanted to use this dark cloud to block his vision and take the opportunity to escape from another direction.

After glancing at the dark cloud that stretched for dozens of kilometers and could not be seen at all, Dakota sneered and chased after it without any hesitation.

Although his vision would indeed be obstructed in the black cloud, as a powerful fourth-stage Void Break Martial Artist, he only needed to sense the strange spatial energy change in the black cloud to clearly track Chu Nan’s escape and grasp the direction.

The spatial energy in the dark cloud was extremely violent. In order to maintain his flying state, Chu Nan had to ensure that the spatial energy around his body was stable. Therefore, he would actually leave an extremely obvious flying trajectory in the dark cloud that was very easy to track.

However, as soon as he entered the dark cloud, a flash suddenly struck.

The power of the lightning was enough to instantly kill ordinary people, but it was naturally not a threat to Dakota. He casually waved his hand and scattered the lightning.

However, after the lightning was scattered, it spread everywhere, causing the spatial energy in the surrounding space to become even more violent and chaotic, causing Dakota’s perception of his surroundings to become much weaker.

“Hmph, you want to rely on these small tricks to disturb me? Dream on!”

Dakota sneered and activated his Internal Breath. The energy shield around his body became even more abundant and isolated all the lightning. At the same time, he sensed the surrounding situation with all his might. Soon, he found the trace left behind by Chu Nan in the violent spatial energy and immediately chased after him.

However, he had just taken two steps when two more bolts of lightning attacked from both sides.

These two bolts of lightning were clearly different from the lightning that was automatically produced by the friction of the electric charge in the dark cloud. When they struck his energy shield, he actually felt that it was clearly weakened.

Dakota was slightly shocked.

He was certain that these two bolts of lightning were definitely done by Chu Nan.

It seemed that not only had this kid learned the most special life-type cultivation method from the Rand Clan, but he had also learned the extremely famous elemental power series cultivation method of the Rand Clan. He had even reached the point of controlling lightning.

Coupled with the fact that Chu Nan had shattered the energy shield of the war fortress with a palm strike, it could be seen that he had an extremely unique ability to control spatial energy. Therefore, he could easily exhaust his energy shield.

Dakota suddenly found himself in a dilemma.

If he continued to use the energy shield to resist the lightning damage, he would definitely be greatly exhausted by Chu Nan’s lightning.

However, if he did not maintain the energy shield, he would be disturbed by the lightning attack and it would affect his perception of the surrounding space, making it very difficult to track Chu Nan.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to continue maintaining the energy shield.

In the end, his Internal Breath was far stronger than Chu Nan’s. Even if maintaining the shield like this consumed more Internal Breath than Chu Nan, because of the huge difference in foundation between the two sides, if this continued, it would definitely be Chu Nan who could not hold on first and not him.

However, the truth was beyond his expectations again. The flashes that attacked him in the black cloud were actually continuous.

Moreover, every bolt of lightning seemed to be slightly different. Every strike made him feel that the impact on his energy shield was slightly greater than before.

In the end, not long after he was attacked by lightning, he actually vaguely discovered that the energy shield was holding on!

He clearly felt that his Internal Breath was quickly consumed in large amounts. At the same time, the surrounding lightning became denser and denser. Dakota was increasingly surprised.

Was that kid still an initial-stage Void Break Martial Artist?

Even if the special elemental power cultivation method of the Rand Clan was indeed rumored to be able to control lightning, how could his Internal Breath endure such frequent use?

However, the clear fact in front of him told him that Chu Nan had held on!

The lightning became denser and stronger. Dakota quickly determined that if Chu Nan continued such a powerful attack, with his current Internal Breath, he would probably not last more than ten minutes.

Speaking of which, it was all his fault for using the Divine Punishment twice to attack Chu Nan, causing him to exhaust nearly half of his Internal Breath.

Coupled with the fact that he had been chasing for so long, he actually only had less than a third of his Internal Breath left.

Dakota was very confident that it was impossible for Chu Nan to continue such a ferocious attack, but he did not dare to take the risk.

If Chu Nan’s true strength really far exceeded his expectations and he had an even more special cultivation method, he could really continue such an attack. Then, his Internal Breath would be exhausted.

At that time, he would be completely passive.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. Dakota roared angrily, then his body suddenly sank and he left the dark cloud.

Although this would make it very difficult for him to continue tracking Chu Nan, he did not dare to take the risk in the situation earlier.

He looked up at the dark clouds that were still filled with lightning above his head, his expression as gloomy as water.

“Am I going to let this kid escape just like that?”

It was impossible for him to sense all the dark clouds in a radius of dozens of kilometers, so he naturally could not sense where Chu Nan was. Therefore, he could not determine where he would escape from, so it was naturally very difficult to completely guard against him.

When he recalled that he had been chasing after Chu Nan for two hours and thought that he was teasing him, he did not expect that he would be teased by him again and let him escape. Dakota felt a ball of anger burning intensely in his heart, but he had nowhere to vent it. He could not help but want to roar at the sky.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he suddenly discovered that a figure had suddenly crawled out of the clouds not far ahead. Then, he seemed to have barely stabilized his body in the air.

Looking carefully, it was Chu Nan.
