Because he discovered that when he manipulated clouds, lightning appeared.

During this journey, he traveled too far with such a large mass of clouds, absorbing too many charges along the way, resulting in this natural reaction.

However, Lin Qianxuan noticed that he could seemingly transfer and gather charges using Water Manipulation, causing them to land wherever he wished.

He tried it once, and within the clouds, a lightning bolt as thick as a finger rushed towards the ground.

"Crack~ Boom~!"

The lightning spanned hundreds of meters, directly striking an abandoned soda can on the rooftop of an unfinished building, charring it into a pitch-black mess.

"Is this even possible?"

Lin Qianxuan seemed to have a revelation, could he actually control lightning indirectly?

However, accumulating a large cloud mass to store charges in advance appeared somewhat troublesome.

It would be ideal if he could always carry a charged cloud with him.

Speaking of which, if he used Water Manipulation to control a massive cloud, accumulating charges to the extreme, and then used water as a conductive medium, how powerful would that lightning be?

A lightning column as thick as a barrel?

Can the Great Profound Light Art compare?

Lin Qianxuan couldn't compare, nor was it easy to compare.

The main issue was the lack of a suitable testing grounds for now.

Furthermore, this technique seemed to have no practical combat significance.

No one would give him such a long time to prepare and gather power.

This rain didn't cause much impact and only provided Lin Qianxuan with a brief period of coolness.

After the sun evaporated the rainwater, another wave of heat came surging in.

He still couldn't manage to counteract the forces of nature on a large scale for an extended period.

Ultimately, Lin Qianxuan chose to hide indoors and have a couple of popsicles.

Honestly, this level of temperature didn't really affect him much, it only made it feel too dry outside, somewhat uncomfortable.

The Dragon Bloodline made Lin Qianxuan naturally prefer a more humid environment.

October 2nd.

A heavy storm suddenly appeared during the night.

Lin Qianxuan watched the rain, seemingly in a daze.

"Qian Xuan, what's the weather like for the next ten days?"

[Master, there will be light rain on six of the upcoming ten days, indicating a trend of continuous cooling...]

When he first got the smart AI speaker, Lin Qianxuan liked it quite a bit, but now it only had the ability to report the weather forecast.

For gaming and listening to music, he preferred using headphones because the room's soundproofing wasn't particularly strong, anything over seventy percent volume would disturb the neighbors.

This was one of the downsides of living in the city.

But residing in the city also had many benefits.

For instance, the convenience of shopping and such.

Although, these benefits had become rather negligible for Lin Qianxuan now.

October 3rd.

In the continuous drizzle, Lin Qianxuan felt slightly cheerful.

There was one day left until the time travel.

However, he did not feel as uneasy as when he departed for Chao Li Country.

Perhaps because he now possessed certain self-defense abilities, or maybe he had adequately prepared himself mentally.

Lin Qianxuan didn't fully trust the simulation of the "String of Destiny."

A simulation is just a simulation, but during execution, it's still him doing the actual work. If something goes wrong, he might not be able to return.

It would be naïve to think there is no risk involved.

In this world, what is there that comes without risk?

Even eating too quickly might choke you to death, and walking might result in a fall turning you into a vegetative state.

Relatively speaking, his risks are within a controllable range.

October 4th, 3 a.m.

After covering the surveillance camera with fog, Lin Qianxuan opened the garage and retrieved the alloy box from inside.

The colossal alloy box was comparable in size to the cargo container of a large truck, primarily housing the Spiritual Energy Cannon.

The other miscellaneous items inside weren't very important.

Nonetheless, Lin Qianxuan still took out the combat suit and put it on, along with tactical goggles, helmet, Spiritual Energy Pistol, a rifle, gas mask, and Spiritual Energy Charger...

Once fully equipped, Lin Qianxuan felt an additional seventy to eighty pounds on him.

But this weight didn't hinder him.

Lin Qianxuan tapped on his helmet, appreciating its solidness, though it probably still wasn't as hard as his own skin.

The combat suit he wore felt similar in nature.

These things provided more psychological comfort than actual utility.

He touched his chest, and the tactile feedback from the spiritual card provided a slight peace of mind.

At least the spiritual card given by Jiang Mengli was genuinely powerful.

Taking advantage of the absence of people, Lin Qianxuan enveloped the cargo with mist and lifted it straight into the air, heading towards the Otherworld Bureau in Longjiang City.

Upon arrival, Wei Zhi was already waiting there.

"Are you really sure it's today?" Wei Zhi asked.

Lin Qianxuan nodded and said, "The tugging feeling is very intense now, I feel I can't hold on much longer. However, previously I had this sudden insight, telling me there might be something here that I need, which could greatly assist me in this crossing."

He was speaking of the [Longevity] Bronze Walking Stick.

If [All-phases] hadn't replicated [Longevity]'s function, he wouldn't have been able to completely defeat the Weary God.

"Follow me, the warehouse is this way," Wei Zhi said.

Then, Wei Zhi began to lead the way.

Thankfully, the passage here was wide enough for Lin Qianxuan to maneuver the large cargo box freely.

Along the way, they encountered some armed security personnel, but after Wei Zhi presented his credentials, they proceeded unimpeded.

"Is that Spiritual Technology?"

Lin Qianxuan's gaze fell onto a device covered in Spiritual Patterns on the wall.
