Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade novel Chapter 1138

Chapter 1138 Withstanding The Lightning Strike 

“Oh, my goodness! How did it start thundering in broad daylight? This is so frightening? Let’s quickly retreat back inside the house!” 

“No way! Is this the result of an immortal overcoming a tribulation? Oh my goodness! Let’s hurry inside. I’m terrified just looking at this lightning. The thought of being struck by it and turning into dust in unimaginable!” 

“Could it be that they’ve brought out the Leight Sect’s divine artifact, the Five Lightning Talisman! Who from Leight Sect used it, though? It’s crazy to think that someone actually employed such a method against others. This person must possess exceptional skills!” 

“Even the most powerful would lose their lives under the force of such lightning strikes!” 

Members from the Leight Sect were discussing among themselves, but not a single person dared to approach and take a look. Under such circumstances, it was only natural for people to prioritize their safety and remain indoors. Only fools would willingly expose themselves to such danger. It would be akin to seeking death. 

The commotion naturally alarmed the sect leader. Young, who was in the midst of his cultivation. Startled. by the successive peals of thunder, he opened his eyes and listened intently to the sounds reverberating in 

his ears. 

“Could it be that a formidable figure has arrived at the Leight Sect? Otherwise, why would Mr. Vladimir bring out the Five Lightning Talisman?” Young muttered to himself. 

Even if a formidable figure were to arrive, they would find it nearly impossible to escape once trapped by the Five Lightning Talisman, with virtually no chance of survival. 

With that thought in mind. Young closed his eyes again, sitting cross-legged, and resumed his cultivation. 

Eve, in order to preserve her own life, did not witness the scene of Alex being struck by lightning. She quickly fled the area in a state of panic. 

Witnessing the power of the lightning strike. Vladimir and Demetrius quickly activated their Mortal Force, forming a protective shield around themselves. Despite their efforts, they could not help but feel a sense of apprehension and were pushed back several meters before managing to regain their footing. 

Trapped within the confining circle, Alex had no means of escape. The lightning struck with a force that pressed him down against the ground, overwhelming him with the immense power of heaven and earth. In the aftermath, he was consumed by a profound numbness, engulfing his body in an intense sensation. 

Despite his formidable strength, Alex found himself at a disadvantage against the relentless lightning: strike. The intense bolts seared his skin, leaving it charred and emitting a faint aroma reminiscent of cooked meat. 

The lightning strike did not turn Alex into ashes. Instead, he lay motionless in the large pit on the ground. looking like a lifeless corpse, completely devoid of any vitality. 

“He’s dead! The fact that he’s able to withstand the Five Lightning Talisman does show his capability, but it’s such a pity to lose the talismans! I wonder who else can draw talismans with such immense power.” Vladimir sighed, feeling somewhat regretful that he had used the Five Lightning Talisman so casually. 

“He’s dead! Although his ability to withstand the Lightning Tribulation showcases his capabilities, it’s a shame to lose such powerful talismans! I wonder who else possesses the skill to create talismans of such 

immense power,” Demetrius lamented, feeling a sense of regret for using the Five Lightning Talisman so casually. 

Vladimir nodded in agreement. Despite his regret over using the Five Lightning Talisman, he acknowledged that it was a necessary measure to ensure their survival. 

At this moment, Alex, covered in charred marks, began to stir and gradually rose from the ground.
