Chapter 342: Chapter 342: Lumi’s Father, Wyatt’s Change
Hiding in the distance from the Thunder Pool, Lumi whispered.”This is bad. That guy Wyatt is here too. Johnnie, should we pull back for now?”

“How strong is Wyatt, exactly?” Johnnie asked. He was too far away to judge Wyatt’s power.

This was a rare chance. If they left now, they might never get another shot like this.

Johnnie still wanted to try.

Lumi took a deep breath and said Wyatt was a Highgod, and he also controlled the power of the Nine Heavens Tribulation Lightning. Johnnie was definitely not his match.

“But something’s strange. Wyatt’s hair wasn’t white before. I don’t know why it’s all white now.” Lumi said, puzzled.

Johnnie grew thoughtful. From this distance, he couldn’t make out many details about Wyatt.

“How strong is your father?” Johnnie asked in a low voice.

Sadness crossed Lumi’s face. “My father is also a Highgod, but much, much stronger than Wyatt—almost at Divine King level. If Wyatt hadn’t colluded with outsiders, he would never be a match for my father.

“My father’s control over the Nine Heavens Tribulation Lightning is far above anyone else in the Thunder Realm. He can go deep into the Thunder Pool. Wyatt can’t.”

Johnnie nodded. If Lumi’s father was that strong, Wyatt’s white hair might have come from injuries he got while fighting him.

If that was true, maybe Johnnie could give it a try.

But there was a problem. The people from the guardian village weren’t here, so he couldn’t use the Way of Heaven Divine Stele’s guardian formation. He could only burn mana points.

And using mana points to cast Immortal Arts would greatly weaken their power.

Johnnie thought about how to enter the Thunder Pool. If they waited any longer, the guards outside would probably return.

Then an idea came to him. He quickly looked at Lumi.

“You just said your father can go deep into the Thunder Pool, but Wyatt can’t?”

Lumi nodded. “Yes. My father can go down to seven hundred meters in the Thunder Pool. Wyatt can only reach three hundred.”

“In that case, is it possible that Wyatt won’t let anyone near the Thunder Pool because your father isn’t dead, and he’s actually hiding deep inside it?” Johnnie said his guess.

Lumi’s eyes lit up. She carefully asked Johnnie how likely that was.

Johnnie was about to answer when thunder exploded from where Wyatt stood.

Boom! Boom!

Crack!

A golden bolt of lightning shot out of the Thunder Pool and struck Wyatt.

Wyatt screamed in pain, black smoke rising from his body.

“Damn it! Levin, your daughter is in my hands! If you don’t want her to die, come out now!” Wyatt stared hard at the surface of the Thunder Pool.

He had already sent people to hunt down Lumi, and he figured they would catch her soon.

If Levin still wouldn’t come out and kept hiding, he would torture Lumi to death right here.

“Levin, the world has changed. The Thunder Realm is too small. We need a bigger place and more resources!”

“As long as you come out, I’ll talk to those Bio-Humans and get them to spare you. And I’ll marry Lumi and make her the queen of the Lightning Spirit Race.” Wyatt kept saying.

Right now Levin was badly hurt and hiding in the Thunder Pool. Wyatt had accepted the Bio-Humans’ gift, so he could no longer enter the Thunder Pool.

Even before, he could only go down three hundred meters and had no way to find Levin.

If Levin didn’t die, he couldn’t fully unite the Lightning Spirit Race, since Levin still had many supporters.

The Thunder Pool went quiet again. No one answered him.

“Come out, Levin!” Wyatt shouted in rage.

His face was dark as he stared at the golden Thunder Pool. Grinding his teeth, he threatened.”You know how important the Thunder Pool is to everyone in the Lightning Spirit Race.”

“One last chance. If you still won’t come out, I’ll destroy the Thunder Pool!”

“Don’t doubt my methods. Those Bio-Humans have always wanted the Thunder Pool gone!”

As soon as Wyatt finished, the golden lightning liquid in the Thunder Pool began to churn, bubbling.

A voice came from inside the Thunder Pool: “Wyatt, you’ve fallen completely. Whatever you plan to do, don’t forget you are still Lightning Spirit Race!”

Wyatt’s face twisted. He smiled and said.”Not anymore.”

He suddenly opened his mouth wide. Countless black vines poured out, wrapping his body and forming an armor-like shell.

At the same time, his muscles warped, and black bones burst through the flesh of his back, forming spines like a lizard’s.

In the blink of an eye, Wyatt became a black monster. His voice turned hoarse as he said.

“You see it. I’m no longer Lightning Spirit Race. Last chance: if you don’t come out, I’ll destroy the Thunder Pool.”

The guards around the Thunder Pool seemed used to Wyatt’s change. Their faces stayed calm as they stared at the churning golden lightning liquid.

“Wyatt! You—you actually… Those Star Raiders will never let the Lightning Spirit Race survive. Don’t you get it?”

“The Nine Heavens Tribulation Lightning is a kind of Power of the Way. It restrains them. How could they ever truly work with you?” Levin’s voice came again.

He had always thought Wyatt was smart. He never expected Wyatt to be foolish enough to abandon the Lightning Spirit Race and turn into a monster.

Levin let out a helpless sigh. The Thunder Pool was vital to the Lightning Spirit Race. With its help, the clan’s talents could grasp the Nine Heavens Tribulation Lightning and gain a trace of the Power of the Way without reaching Divine King.

If the Thunder Pool was destroyed, how would they face the Star Raiders in the future?

Levin’s wounds had not healed. If he left the Thunder Pool and lost its protection, Wyatt alone could kill him.

But if he stayed, the monster that Wyatt had become might really destroy the Thunder Pool.

To Levin, the situation felt hopeless.

…

On the other side, when Lumi heard her father Levin’s voice, she clamped a hand over her mouth.

Tears streamed from her eyes—part joy that her father wasn’t dead, part fear for him.

Lumi forced herself to calm down, thinking hard about what to do.

Without realizing it, her eyes turned to Johnnie.

Lumi dropped to her knees before Johnnie and begged.”Johnnie, please save my father. If you save him, I’ll do anything for you.”

“Please.”

With her mind full of saving her father, Lumi could only pin her hopes on Johnnie.

“Calm down first. It’s best if you tell me everything about Wyatt—how he fights, and so on.” Johnnie helped Lumi up and spoke in a low voice.

Lumi took deep breaths to steady herself.

Then she began telling him everything she knew about Wyatt.

But as she spoke, a look of struggle kept appearing in her eyes.

Lumi knew that even though Johnnie didn’t seem high level and wasn’t Domain, he had the strength to kill a Lesser God.

But Wyatt was a Highgod, and now he had turned into a monster. If Johnnie stepped in, wouldn’t that be suicide?

Saving her father mattered, but Lumi didn’t want Johnnie to lose his life.

Besides not knowing what to do, she felt a strong sense of helplessness and guilt.

If she had trained well and pushed herself to get stronger, she wouldn’t be so powerless now.

Johnnie didn’t know what Lumi was thinking. He just listened carefully to everything about Wyatt.

The Nine Heavens Tribulation Lightning could restrain those Star Raiders, so the Thunder Pool, formed from its liquefied lightning, must not be destroyed. And he hadn’t even entered it yet to improve his control over the Nine Heavens Tribulation Lightning.

Also, whatever the enemy wants to get, Johnnie will destroy.

Whatever the enemy wants to destroy, Johnnie will save.

He had to act and stop Wyatt from destroying the Thunder Pool.

Wyatt had become a monster. He should now count as a Wicked Life. Then the Nine Heavens Tribulation Lightning triggered by physical attacks should deal ten times the damage to him.

But back then, when facing the Six-Armed DemonBorg with Highgod-level strength, the Nine Heavens Tribulation Lightning he triggered didn’t kill it outright.

Johnnie took a deep breath and pulled out the parchment that recorded the guardian formation.

He needed spirit energy to cast an Immortal Art.

“This is a kind of formation. It’s not hard. Look closely—you should be able to learn it in a short time.” Johnnie said in a low voice.

The guardian formation needs at least two people to activate. As long as Lumi learns it, I can use her spiritual power to cast the Immortal Art: Vajra Indestructibility.

This was to make sure he wouldn’t be instantly killed by Wyatt. Johnnie had to buy enough time and wait for Levin in the Thunder Pool to make a move.

Lumi quickly took the scroll and stared at it without blinking. Her father’s life was on the line, and she pushed herself to the limit.

Less than three minutes later, Lumi closed her eyes, then snapped them open. ”

Alright, let me try.” She took a deep breath and moved to stand behind Johnnie.

Johnnie gave her a surprised look, then pulled out the Guardian Scepter and focused.

He found he could really draw on the spiritual power inside Lumi.

It seemed Lumi had a strong talent for formations.
