586: Resurrection from the dead

Tang Ku had actually thought about his own death countless times, but he never imagined that he would actually be struck dead by lightning!

In fact, at his Realm, ordinary lightning could not hurt him, and even the Heavenly Lightning Tribulation was basically useless against him. But who asked this lightning to be a transformation of Grand Tutor Wen combined with Mo Qilin and that infinitely powerful male and female steel whip?

The Law of lightning, an Incarnation of lightning—this was probably the speed closest to the speed of light in the world. Even with Tang Ku's immense strength, it was impossible to track the trajectory of this move!

Tang Ku's body slowly fell from mid-air to the dust, kicking up countless smoke and dust.

This scene was somewhat hard for everyone to accept. Whether enemy or ally, they all looked at Tang Sanzang, who had stopped breathing and had no heartbeat, with expressions of disbelief, their eyes filled with confusion.

"This... is it over? But... but this is Tang Sanzang. This is the person who dared to declare war on the Three Realms. How could he just... disappear like this?" Compassionate Guanyin looked at the scene before her, bewildered, her mouth twitching as she spoke.

"There is nothing impossible about it. No matter how strong Tang Sanzang is, he is still just one person. Even with the power of Law by his side, he is not invincible, let alone that kind of 'jack-of-all-trades' ordinary Law!" Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva smiled bitterly and helplessly, "After all, he was once a Disciple of our Buddha... If possible, help collect his body!"

Compassionate Guanyin could not help but sigh. She glanced at Holy Heart Guanyin beside her, already hesitating whether to ask her to save Tang Sanzang.

Tang Ku's Disciples looked at each other in dismay, but then they heard the monkey suddenly shout in anger: "You old rascal, Old Sun will fight you to the death!"

As he spoke, the monkey was about to rush forward, but Yang Jian suddenly flashed out from the side and blocked Sun Wukong, saying: "Great Sage, do not panic. The Holy Monk... he should not be dead yet!"

"He's already stopped breathing, dammit, and you say he's not dead... You old rascal, Old Sun is not finished with you... You... give me back my Master!"

The Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand flashed out instantly, and he smashed it fiercely towards Grand Tutor Wen. Grand Tutor Wen's figure had just returned to human form when he trembled violently, struggling to lift the steel whip in his hand to block...

Boom! Mo Qilin's four hooves sank violently into the mud, but the enlarged Ruyi Jingu Bang was also bounced back. Grand Tutor Wen immediately controlled Mo Qilin to jump backward, frowning slightly, and said: "Monkey, this is a fair competition, why are you going crazy?"

Sun Wukong was furious: "I'll take you, you old rascal. This life of Old Sun was given by Master. If you don't want me to cause trouble for you, bring my Master back to life first!"

Beside Sun Wukong, several Junior Brothers all stood in a row, holding weapons, looking coldly at Grand Tutor Wen. Only Yang Jian stood helplessly to the side, saying nothing.

Grand Tutor Wen's face was livid. He had not expected that killing Tang Sanzang would be like poking a hornet's nest, with a group of people wanting to avenge him.

The Cultivators in the human world were already stunned. They had not expected that Tang Sanzang's challenge to the Three Realms would end so sloppily? What kind of matter was this!

"Sigh, a generation's Grandmaster, has it really ended like this?" Beside Li Chengqian, an old Daoist could not help but say with deep regret, "Daring to challenge authority—this spirit is truly a model for our generation!"

However, Li Chengqian beside him said nothing. Instead, he smiled playfully. He stepped out from the crowd and walked toward Tang Ku's "corpse" on the hillside.

Beside Damo Cave, Wu Zhen could not help but pat the dirt off her body and walked toward Tang Ku's location, helplessly saying: "You, as a Master, why do you make people worry so much?"

Li Chengqian's body became brighter and brighter, and specks of starlight seemed to flash from him, but if one looked closely, it was unclear whether they were there or not.

"Oh, so Your Majesty has arrived... Hehe, Master said you would definitely come!" Wu Zhen bowed to Li Chengqian.

"Master Wu Zhen, the Holy Monk knew I would come?" Li Chengqian and Wu Zhen chatted as if no one else was around.

"Yes, he said that Your Majesty, who has stepped half-way into the cultivation world, would certainly come. And as long as you come, he basically won't lose!" Wu Zhen laughed.

Li Chengqian rubbed his chin. Suddenly, a white shadow flashed from his body. This shadow was thin and tall; it crouched beside Tang Ku to inspect him, then suddenly laughed: "Your Majesty, it's fine, the soul is still there..."

Others did not recognize him, but the Immortals and Buddhas saw at a glance that this was clearly White Impermanence Xie Bian. However, the magic power on his body had become terrifyingly strong, not at all like the level a ghost general should have, and his appearance had also changed; he was no longer that hanging ghost, but instead carried a bit of golden "Imperial Qi" on his body.

"What is going on again? Who is that person? Why is Xie Bian with him?" Taiyi Relief-from-Suffering Heavenly Lord asked his subordinates, "Did you not even investigate this?" The subordinates were timid and dared not make a sound.

Grand Tutor Wen and Tang Ku's Disciples were at daggers drawn, and it looked like a major fight was about to break out, but unexpectedly, a voice seemed to appear in the Void Realm: "Disciples, stand down..."

The Disciples were shocked and looked sharply in Tang Ku's direction, only to see a flash of electric light suddenly erupt from the charred position of Tang Ku's heart, and then...

Crack! His chest seemed to be lifted by some force, and then it suddenly fell back down... Immediately after, another flash of lightning, his chest jumped violently again, and then fell back down... Then it was up, down, up, down, up...

The entire body floated up, his chest heaved violently, and his nose began to inhale and exhale.

Suddenly, Tang Ku stood straight up, did a beautiful flip, and landed on the ground.

"Hach, hach, hach..." Tang Ku knelt on one knee, gasping for air.

Everyone present was stunned!

Of course, except for Compassionate Guanyin, who had also lived in modern society.

"Good guy..." Compassionate Guanyin said in shock, "Mastered the Laws of lightning so quickly? Amazing, amazing indeed. To actually use the residual lightning power in the body as a defibrillator, and relying on a powerful Physical Body, he actually pulled through?"

"Uh, what is this defibrillator thing?" Maitreya asked with a strange expression.

"Don't mind these details!" Compassionate Guanyin pinched her brow helplessly and said, "You just need to know that Grand Tutor Wen's Lightning Law can't hurt him anymore, that's all!"

"?" Maitreya looked at Tang Ku in shock, "Tang Sanzang actually has such adaptability?"

"Hmm, that really was a trip through the Gate of Hell..." Tang Ku curled his lips, raised his head, and smiled at Grand Tutor Wen: "You've made your move, so next, it's my turn..."
