Wu Santong exclaimed in amazement, "Truly amazing! The power of lightning has actually been attracted by this lightning rod!"
Moments later, more and more thunderclaps sounded in the sky!
At first, everyone was very scared, but after ten minutes, they all showed disbelief!
Because all the lightning was absorbed by hundreds of lightning rods!
No one present was injured! You must know that when Lin Caogen first came to this fragmented continent three years ago, he had killed a Core Formation stage cultivator with heavenly lightning! If even a Core Formation stage cultivator could be killed by lightning, then the Qi Condensation stage and the Body Refinement stage would be even less of a problem.
If it weren't for the fact that tens of thousands of people were struck dead by lightning every year, the sea tribes would never have been able to promote the absurd custom of burning young girls as sacrifices to the gods!
Twenty minutes later, the thunder in the sky was becoming more and more frequent, with an average of thousands of lightning bolts of varying thickness flashing by every minute.
Despite the dense thunderclaps, no one was injured by lightning.
All lightning strikes are absorbed by the lightning rod!
Civil and military officials, merchants, and farmers all looked in the direction of Lin Caogen of the Ming Dynasty, knelt down and shouted, "Long live the Emperor! The Emperor is wise!"
Bai Dicheng, the White King, and Wang Bodang, the Arrow King, were filled with emotion!
They were native sea people who had suffered from heavenly lightning attacks for thousands of years, and the number of their servants who had died or been injured was countless!
Three years ago, Bai Su, the beloved daughter of Baidi City, was almost burned to death at the sea altar.
It's unbelievable that the terrifying heavenly tribulation was actually averted by hundreds of lightning rods!
Bai Dicheng sighed and said, "If we had known this would happen, wouldn't the thousands of young girls who have died over the centuries have died in vain? We were truly foolish! We never imagined that our son-in-law could break through the tribulation of lightning with just a few hundred iron rods! We are truly useless!"
Arrow King Wang Bodang said with a wry smile, "Brother Bai! Today, the lightning rod's ability to break through the Heavenly God's lightning punishment is like a bucket of ice water being poured on my head! How come we sea people couldn't think of such a good method? We are indeed foolish and deserve to die!"
Bai Dicheng suddenly remembered something and asked, "Who was the first to suggest such a terrible idea as burning young girls as sacrifices to the gods?"
Without hesitation, Wang Bodang replied, "It was proposed by Emperor Renzong of Song!"
Bai Dicheng roared, "That damned bastard! If you don't understand, don't lead the way! It's all our fault for following his nonsense in the first place!"
Wang Bodang said with a wry smile, "His Majesty has always urged us to read more and do more learning! I think the great mistakes we have made are all caused by our lack of study! It is truly our blessing that we have the honor of supporting Nephew Lin as Emperor!"
Bai Dicheng nodded and said, "That's right! From now on, whatever my son-in-law says, I'll do it, even if it costs me my life!"
The lightning in the sky is becoming increasingly dense, reaching its peak!
The celestial palace atop the clouds became increasingly clear!
Lin Caogen looked at the four gates of the Heavenly Palace on the Cloud Top, and felt that the eastern gate was the clearest! Perhaps this was the weakest point in the entire Heavenly Palace's array barrier! That's why it was the clearest to see!
