My Mysterious Left Hand

As the last bolt of lightning struck, the vortex of thunderclouds in the sky silently dissipated.

"Controlling lightning punishment? Is this the new divine power I gained after my Dao body's transformation?"

Li Chen raised his head slightly, waved his hand, and directly used the innate divine power he had just acquired.

This is not a simple, weak ability like a superpower, but a natural divine ability that cannot be refined by cultivation techniques, similar to the magical ability of the Space-Time Divine Eye.

"Rumble..."

As he actively used his supernatural powers, a vortex of thunderclouds suddenly appeared in the sky, very similar to the previous strange phenomena in the heavens and earth.

Endless lightning bolts crisscrossed within him, and all the lightning seemed to obey his commands and be at his disposal.

But before he could unleash the lightning, the source energy in his dantian was completely depleted.

The swirling thunderclouds in the sky also dissipated.

"What terrifying energy consumption! It seems this innate divine ability can't be used at will for the time being; it'll have to be reserved as a trump card."

Li Chen was secretly surprised, and quickly activated his cultivation technique—

"Buzz!"

Within a radius of a thousand meters, a large amount of heaven and earth energy gathered and entered his body, restoring some of the source energy in his dantian that had just been depleted.

He didn't rush to continue cultivating, but stopped, sensing his own condition while absorbing the information in his mind.

After a long while, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a flash of lightning appeared in them.

"Space-Time Thunder Punishment Dao Body?"

Yes, that's the information that just came to mind.

The Spacetime Thunder Punishment Body is an extremely terrifying special physique, a mutation of the Spacetime Body.

Those who possess this special constitution can control lightning punishment and travel to the future to kill enemies.

"Am I even human?"

Li Chen was both shocked and delighted.

"Going to the future to fight enemies... this not only allows me to see things more clearly about the future that haven't happened yet, but also enables me to plan for the future!"

Although this ability to interfere with the future can only affect events within the next half hour for now, it is still terrifying enough.

This method only occurs at a fixed time in the future, and it is impossible to detect or counter it until that exact moment.

Unless the target you are targeting has the means to avoid misfortune and avoid danger, you can avoid a specific location at the right time.

Let's see how it goes.

A thought struck Li Chen, and he activated his Space-Time Divine Eye, looking towards the future.

In his field of vision, the scene before him changed rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten minutes had passed.

About thirteen minutes later, a group of people rushed over, including the old Taoist priest.

Upon seeing the old Taoist priest, he unhesitatingly unleashed a lightning strike upon him.

Of course, he was only doing this for an experiment, not to kill anyone, so he only used a small portion of his source power, enough to startle the other party but not to injure them.

"Buzz!"

Time instantly returned to normal, and his vision blurred as he returned to the normal timeline.

"Now, let's see if what just happened will actually happen in thirteen minutes."

With a deep look in his eyes, Li Chen took out several source stones, sat cross-legged on the small hill, and began to cultivate.

"Buzz—"

The moment he activated his cultivation technique, all the energy of heaven and earth within a radius of a thousand meters converged and formed an energy vortex above his head, pouring down.

At the same time, a huge amount of energy was being continuously drawn from the source stone in his hand.

After circulating through the meridians, which are like a time tunnel, this energy converges towards the dantian.

Within the dantian, the previously depleted source energy immediately began to be generated rapidly, and more and more light mist appeared.

This cultivation speed is much faster than on Earth, not to mention the support of Originium.

The source energy on this planet is extremely concentrated, so there's no need to worry about it being drained in a short time.

Because the surrounding energy is constantly being replenished, the speed is very fast.

Time flew by, and more than ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

A kilometer away, Huang Weixing and a group of teachers rushed over, drawn by the terrifying phenomenon they had witnessed earlier.

"What terrifying energy fluctuations!"

"Is that Teacher Li Chen cultivating? It's incredible that he can cause such a celestial phenomenon!"

Everyone looked surprised.

Suddenly, the old Taoist priest's expression changed drastically.

"boom!"

Almost instantly, a bolt of lightning struck him from the sky, instantly freezing his body and causing his hair to smoke.

Everyone was startled, thinking they had encountered an enemy, and quickly prepared for battle.

However, the weather was fine and the surroundings were quiet, so it didn't seem like there were any enemies at all.

"What just happened?"

Everyone looked completely bewildered.

Suddenly, someone whispered, "Teacher Liang offended Teacher Li Chen before. Could it be that Teacher Li Chen used this against us?"

This attack method is somewhat similar to the Palm Lightning, at least both are lightning.

Teacher Liang, the old Taoist priest who looked to be over sixty years old, turned pale upon hearing this and remained silent.

One reason they came here was to verify whether Li Chen was the one who caused the strange phenomenon, and the other was to obtain the method for modifying the Palm Thunder from Li Chen.

Now that they need someone's help, even if it was really Li Chen who made the move just now, they have to pretend they weren't attacked.

"Don't talk nonsense, everyone. Teacher Li Chen is currently cultivating."

He quickly tidied his hair and said calmly, "It's probably just normal weather. Let's go quickly."

"Ah, right, Teacher Li Chen is clearly cultivating."

"That's right, and given how far away we are, how could Teacher Li Chen's attack possibly reach here?"

That makes sense.

The group understood the situation perfectly well, so they remained silent and quickened their pace towards where Li Chen was cultivating.

From afar, they could see the charred remains on the small hill where Li Chen was.

The hill had been almost completely shattered by lightning, and there was charred earth and rocks everywhere, with many places even crystallized.

"hiss……"

"Was Teacher Li Chen undergoing a tribulation before?"

"Isn't it said that one needs to undergo tribulation only to break through the mortal realm? Could it be that Teacher Li Chen has already reached the Cave Heaven realm?"

Everyone was secretly surprised.

Now that I think about it carefully, the strange phenomena in the heavens and earth before did indeed resemble a heavenly tribulation. The only difference was that it didn't have the oppressive force of a heavenly tribulation.

However, as they drew closer, they sensed Li Chen's presence.

Because Li Chen is currently in a state of cultivation, he cannot keep his aura hidden indefinitely, so they all sensed that Li Chen is still in the fifth realm of mortals.

"Still only at the fifth realm of mortals... then what was that thundercloud vortex just now?"

Huang Weixing and everyone else were even more puzzled.

As they got closer to Li Chen, the sense of oppression grew stronger.

That sense of oppression came not only from Li Chen's aura, but also from the vortex of source energy in the sky.

As you can see from here, within a radius of one kilometer, endless source energy converges, forming an energy vortex with a diameter of one hundred meters in the sky.

It looks spectacular and magnificent, with a strong visual impact.

On the hill.

Li Chen has confirmed that his Spacetime Thunder Punishment Dao Body can indeed attack enemies in the future.

This ability is very powerful, and if used well, it may produce amazing results.

Sensing Huang Weixing and the others approaching, he slowly stopped cultivating, concealed his aura, opened his eyes, and looked at everyone who had come within a hundred meters.

The energy vortex in the sky slowly dissipated, and the oppressive feeling that even a mortal at the ninth level of cultivation would experience also dissipated.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, then quickened their pace and headed towards the hill ahead.

"What can I do for you, teachers?" Li Chen asked, feigning ignorance.

Everyone immediately looked at the old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest Liang Li immediately cupped his hands and said, "I was wrong to be researching the comprehensive building earlier. I was just feeling frustrated with the project. Please forgive me, Teacher Li Chen."

He refused to mention being struck by lightning earlier.

"What are you saying, teacher? It's certainly wrong of me, a layman, to point fingers at an expert."

Li Chen didn't bother to get up and said with an unchanged expression, "Everyone, just state your purpose."

A middle-aged man stepped forward and took out a document from his spatial ring: "Teacher Li Chen, could you share the modified principles and casting methods of the Palm Lightning spell? Of course, we certainly won't let you work for nothing. We've also researched some spells before, which you can look up for free."

Huang Weixing also stepped forward and said, "Teacher Li Chen, the materials in Teacher Zhang's hands contain theoretical conjectures about spatial arrays and spacetime spirit fields. Although most of them are still in the conjecture stage, they already have a certain theoretical support."

Theoretical conjectures about spatial arrays and spacetime spirit fields?

Li Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately stood up, smiling and saying, "What are you saying, teachers? I am a teacher at the academy, and it is my duty to participate in the research of magic techniques."
