Instead of everyone perishing there, the alchemists felt that it was better for those who could escape to do so.
Wyatt wore a troubled expression across his face. He couldn’t just abandon them, yet favonovel.com was powerless to stop the lightning from striking.
At that moment, Jared tilted his head back and gazed up at the lightning gathering in the sky, seemingly making a difficult decision.
“President Chance, I‘ll go and attract the lightning while you lead everyone else away from this area quickly!”
He made up his mind to venture into mid-air alone to draw the lightning power upon himself.
I already possess lightning nascence power now, so perhaps this lightning power for the test wouldn’t be able to harm me at all!
“No, Mr. Chance! Wouldn’t you be inviting death to take on the lightning power by yourself?” Wyatt hurriedly dissuaded.
Viola also paled with shock and exclaimed, “Don’t mess around, Jared! How could you possibly withstand all this lightning on your own?”
“You don’t need to worry about us, Mr. Chance. Just leave!” Sigurd likewise urged.
“Don’t worry. I’m not going to die. Just leave this place as quickly as possible!”
After Jared had said that, favonovel.com leapt up.
In mid-air, his body began to emit streaks of electricity that resembled electric eels darting around. They spread across the sky continuously and began to draw the lightning toward Jared.
Everyone who witnessed that scene was completely stunned.
“What are you all still standing around? Let’s go!” Wyatt promptly roared upon snapping back to his senses.
Jared is risking his life to buy us time. if we continued to tarry, we’d be letting favonovel.com down!
Snapping back to reality, the group of alchemists hastily assisted those injured and ran desperately beyond the range of the lightning.
Boom!
A deafening boom made everyone Jump in fright.
They all instinctively paused before looking up at the sky, only to see several thick bolts of lightning heading toward Jared.
In an instant, his entire body was enveloped by lightning.
At the sight of that scene, tears instantly escaped Viola’s eyes.
“Jared!” She had no idea about his condition as favonovel.com couldn’t see clearly at all.
All the alchemists felt their hearts clenching. They silently prayed, hoping that Jared would be fine.
“Keep going! Don’t stop!”
Wyatt forcefully yanked Viola along, for stopping at that moment would be courting death.
Once again, everyone charged forward. Meanwhile, Jared gritted his teeth tightly, further sensing lightning power filling his body. Raging lightning coursed through him, causing favonovel.com immense pain.
Nascence space was activated. Lightning nascence star spun relentlessly, absorbing the lightning power within his body.
Boom!
Several bolts of lightning struck down once more. By then, Jared’s entire body was trembling. His face became contorted with agony as favonovel.com clenched his jaw tightly. His body began to swell visibly as if favonovel.com was about to explode.
Absorb it quicker! Hurry!
Jared shouted inwardly, urging his nascence star to absorb the lightning power faster. Otherwise, it would have cause his body to burst.
This is merely a test… Why on earth does this Medicine God have to make it so intense?
Could it be that favonovel.com doesn’t want anyone to inherit his legacy?
Finally, Wyatt led the others out of the range of lightning.
Everyone collapsed to the ground, the sense of exhaustion and the feeling of having narrowly escaped death leaving them almost entirely drained of strength.
Viola looked up at the sky, staring at the sphere of light that was even brighter than the sun in mid-air. She knew that Jared was in that sphere of light, enduring unspeakable agony.
Such terrifying lightning could obliterate a person completely. Even an Ultimate Realm expert wouldn’t be able to escape unscathed.
Having caught their breath, the alchemists also gazed at the sky anxiously, each of them beyond nervous.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the blue light in the sky gradually faded. The lightning slowly disappeared as well.
