Chapter 98: Just a Licentious Cultivator
Adara felt very stressful after today's turn of events.
She was a lone martial practitioner who lived in the Western Mountain Ranger.
Early that day, Adara had set out to meet Three Peaks Mountain Lord, a fellow lone martial practitioner to purchase some Thousand Year Thunderblitz Trees but the latter was unwilling to sell even one no matter the price Adara offered.
She had spent several hours on Three Peaks Mountain bargaining for the Thousand Year Thunderblitz Trees but it was all futile.
Adara had several Hundred Year Thunderblitz Trees which she used for her cultivation.
The Thunderblitz Trees were trees that had accumulated lightning path dao imprints after being struck by heavenly lightning constantly. Over time, their natural wood path dao imprints would be destroyed.
After a hundred years, the Thunderblitz Trees would gain the ability to attract heavenly lightning to themselves, increasing their lightning path dao imprints.
Lightning path martial practitioners would arrange the Thunderblitz Trees in specific formations to summon heavenly lightning to temper their bodies and enhance their cultivation.
The way the Thunderblitz Trees were arranged would determine the strength of the heavenly lightning.
Thunderblitz Trees that had been struck for at least one century were Hundred Year Thunderblitz Trees. After a thousand years, they would become Thousand Year Thunderblitz Trees and so on.
The older the Thunderblitz Trees, the more lightning path dao imprints it would have and the quantity and quality of the heavenly lightning summoned would change.
Adara was at the second tier of Acquisition realm, the Hundred Year Thunderblitz Trees that she had could not suffice for her cultivation base.
After Adara had left Three Peaks Mountain, some of her suitors caught wind of her movements and pursued her until dusk, when she managed to get rid of them.
"I just want to soak myself in a warm bath and wash all my stress away" Adara muttered to herself before descending on her mountain.
…..
Lu Zheng was sitting in a garden cultivating. His eyelids fluttered for a moment before parting.
A stifling pressure descended upon him that disturbed his cultivation.
Lu Zheng looked at Themur who was sleeping across him. He had reverted to his small size.
In a grave tone, Lu Zheng muttered to himself while getting up: "It seems… the mountain lord has arrived"
In a flash, his body flickered and he disappeared from the spot.
Lu Zheng hid his aura skilfully as he approached the source of the stifling pressure.
He had decided that if it was a martial practitioner he could beat, he would fight for the mountain but if otherwise, he would only run.
As Lu Zheng rummaged through the bushes that rose in the garden, a grand sight entered his line of vision.
A large pool of glistening water sat within the garden and inside it, a woman with shiny dark skin bathed herself.
She stood in the pool that only her waist and below was covered. Everything above her waist was naked.
The woman had a graceful bosom that was appealing and her face was extremely gorgeous. She was so immersed in her bathe that she didn't notice Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng's breathing grew heavy as he watched her. Without knowing, he was already standing before the pool.
The woman was still oblivious to his presence.
It was only when Lu Zheng called out with a smile that she looked up.
"Hmm!" The woman's carefree expression changed into horror as purple lightning crossed the surface of the water.
In a flash, Lu Zheng was electrocuted and thrown away over ten metres.
The woman quickly got to her feet and covered herself with cloth but since her body was wet, the cloth was almost see-through.
A dangerous glint of light flashed in her brown pupils as purple lightning bolts danced in her palms.
Her voice was still shaky from being seen naked by a man: "Who are you?"
The woman felt perplexed.
She had numerous suitors that were maddened by love over her. Whenever she saw them, she usually had to turn the other way.
Only a few of her suitors were gentlemen and even those ones could kill men just because of her.
During the day, she had been chased by some of her suitors until dusk. Now that she saw Lu Zheng, she felt even more stressed.
Lu Zheng also felt perplexed.
From the woman's attack, he had been able to glimpse at her cultivation base.
She was at the second tier of Acquisition realm.
It had only been a day since he arrived in Nigeria and he had already been attacked by Acquisition realm experts twice and they were lone martial practitioners.
In China and North America, Acquisition realm experts usually belonged to forces. It was rare to see lone martial practitioners that were also Acquisition realm experts.
Yet in Nigeria, they seemed to be everywhere.
Lu Zheng now understood why Nigeria was acknowledged as the strongest nation on Earth.
It wasn't just because they had the strongest martial practitioner. Even the common people were very strong.
Lu Zheng smiled bitterly as he got to his feet, answering her, he said: "Just a licentious cultivator"
