Beauty and the Bodyguard

With Lin Yi\'s current strength, his super butterfly microsteps was a lot faster than before. To normal people, it was no different from teleportation, but no matter how he ran, the purple lightning always circled above his head.

Lin Yi was so scared that his heart was shaking. He gritted his teeth and ran for his life, even using his ultimate butterfly microsteps. But it was useless. No matter how fast he was, he couldn\'t outrun the purple lightning. It seemed like it had locked onto him!

Ever since he got the powerful lightning element, Lin Yi had always been overjoyed, especially this time when he got the unprecedented eight spiritual roots under the guidance of the lightning element. Lin Yi was even more overjoyed, but now he was really having a headache. The lightning element was powerful, but this lightning attracting needle\'s special feature was a problem that could kill him!

Sure enough, everything had its advantages and disadvantages. It was really a fool\'s dream to think that one person could take all the good things.

BOOM! With a loud sound, the purple lightning finally came down, hitting Lin Yi right on the top of his head!

Lin Yi was frozen in place, twitching and struggling as if he was frozen in place. His body was covered in shocking electric sparks, and if someone were to look closely, they\'d see that he\'d been electrocuted into the air, purely because of the lightning.

Normal lightning couldn\'t do any damage to Lin Yi at all. Even if it was ten times stronger, he could grit his teeth and endure it, but this purple lightning almost killed him. The power of this lightning was at least fifty times stronger!

"Motherf * cker!" Lin Yi screamed in pain, almost fainting from the shock. Fortunately, he still had a bit of consciousness left, or he\'d be dead for sure.

With the strong lightning element in his body, Lin Yi was like a giant human battery-not only could he discharge electricity, but he could also store electricity. He could absorb normal lightning directly, but this was fifty times the normal amount-this was way beyond what he could take!

Even if it was a battery, it would probably explode on the spot, let alone a living person like him.

In an instant, Lin Yi was so close to death.

Fortunately, after a moment of daze, Lin Yi found that he was able to withstand it. Although his body was filled with extremely dangerous lightning energy, fortunately, the lightning energy didn\'t go everywhere. It was absorbed around the lightning-based compound eight spiritual roots. Otherwise, even ten lives wouldn\'t be enough to kill him.

It felt like a powerful bomb was buried in his body. Once it exploded, he would be crushed to pieces. Fortunately, this was a time bomb. As long as he didn\'t touch it, he still had a little time to deactivate it.

A huge amount of lightning energy was stirring in Lin Yi\'s body. The only thing he could do now was to refine it before it went out of control. This was far beyond Lin Yi\'s limit, so the whole process was extremely difficult. Every bit of refining felt like his dantian and meridians were going to explode.

If he didn\'t have a strong will, he wouldn\'t even be able to keep his consciousness, let alone refine all the lightning. Fortunately, Lin Yi miraculously held on.

Feeling the unprecedented surge of lightning energy in his body, Lin Yi laughed bitterly, still in fear. He was almost exhausted.

Lin Yi\'s clothes were wet and dry from the cold sweat, and they were all crumpled and uncomfortable. If it weren\'t for the danger, he would\'ve taken a shower and changed his clothes. It was too uncomfortable.

This was only Lin Yi-if it were someone else, they\'d be dead already, turning into dust. Even experiencing this kind of pain would be a luxury.

However, his suffering was not in vain. After surviving a great disaster, he was bound to be blessed. Not only did he manage to survive, but the power of Thunder in his body had also become several times stronger.

Although only a small part of them had been completely refined by Lin Yi, the rest could only be considered temporary taming, just like the lightning strike he\'d received before. It was a one-time use item, and once it was used up, it would disappear. Only the small part that had been completely refined by him could merge into the spirit root and live forever.

But even so, Lin Yi\'s harvest this time was not small. The process was a little dangerous, but the result was still a happy one.

"Senior, did you feel that the lightning just now was a little strange?" Lin Yi asked as he recovered.

"Why is it strange?" The ghostly thing was confused. He was more knowledgeable than Lin Yi, but he didn\'t see the purple lightning himself. Lin Yi could sense it, but he might not.

"I\'ve received the inheritance of the giant electric eel and experienced the Thunder tribulation. After thinking about it carefully, I found that although both of them are powerful Thunderbolts, there is a fundamental difference." Lin Yi frowned.

"Oh? Can you be more specific?" The ghastly thing asked.

"Not only is the strength of the lightning different between the two, but more importantly, the will contained in them is completely different." Lin Yi analyzed after some careful thought."The Thunder tribulation is the power of heaven and earth, so it\'s completely cold and emotionless. But the giant electric eel is different. Its lightning strikes seem to have some kind of emotional color."

"There\'s such a thing?" This time, even the ghost was shocked-not at Lin Yi\'s discovery, but at Lin Yi\'s keen observation skills. He didn\'t know much about lightning as he wasn\'t good at it, but he knew that it wasn\'t something normal people could detect.

He had strong willpower, keen insight, and an unflustered tenacity no matter what. Not only was this kid\'s hard innate talent such as spiritual roots unparalleled, but even his hidden innate talents were terrifyingly strong. It was not luck that he was able to have his achievements today.

"Hmm, I thought it was just my imagination. I thought that lightning was just a kind of power, so how could it be emotional? However, after experiencing that lightning, my thoughts have been confirmed. " Lin Yi\'s expression turned serious.
