Chapter 775: Thunder Spirit Transforms into Sheep
Thunder rolled in the dark clouds, like a dragon, a snake, and a python. When the lightning pierced the clouds, it illuminated a blue or purple light, followed closely by a terrifying thunder that shook people's minds and made them panic.
People were filled with fear of thunder. The lightning that stretched across the sky spread out like a winding chain, like a sword piercing the sky. The deafening thunder was like the huge noise of a sword and axe slashing and the universe smashing.
Not only humans are afraid of it, but also demons and ghosts are afraid of it.
Thunder is the pivot of heaven and earth, born from the friction of yin and yang.
The friction between yin and yang affects the heaven and earth, and all energies tremble, becoming extremely great and powerful.
If one practices at this time, firstly, the spirit can be easily defeated by the might of heaven, even losing the mind and destroying the Taoist magic. Secondly, goblins and ghosts are all yin beings and are naturally restrained by heavenly thunder.
The friction of Yin and Yang produces the hardest and strongest heavenly thunder. If you don't use any method, it will be fine. But if you use some method, it will easily cause the changes of Yin and Yang, and let the thunder hit you along with the changes of Yin and Yang, which will instantly make you feel dead and bone-chilling.
For wild spirits, once their minds are lost, it is easy for them to leak their Qi, and leaking their Qi can easily affect Yin and Yang.
To avoid thunder, for most goblins and ghosts, it means to stay in their lair tightly, bury their heads and play dead, not seeing or hearing, and keeping their minds focused.
If the weaker wandering spirits have no attachment, they will be scattered and killed by the strong wind before they even wait for the thunder.
Of course, the monsters wandering around the human world have other means.
For example, hiding in a popular place, using the popularity to cover up your own energy to avoid being sensed by the thunder.
At some special moments, such as when your practice reaches a critical point and your qi is completely out of control, you need to find some people with better luck to cover for you.
Although countless species coexist under the heavens, the advantages of the human body far surpass all others. We possess exceptional intelligence, agility, and a strong spirit. Aside from those born with different characteristics, few species can rival us.
Goblins and ghosts like these are born and die every day, with yin and yang changing. When yin energy gathers, they gain wisdom, and when yang energy sweeps away, they disperse. It is a rare opportunity to be able to achieve success in cultivation.
Several loud flashes appeared and disappeared outside the window, causing the foxes to scream in surprise. Then they covered their ears and hid under the table.
Ning Caichen was teaching them to read and understand things when he was startled by the lightning. He could not see any of his students. Only his big tail, which could not be hidden, was exposed and trembling slightly.
Then there was the sudden rumbling of thunder, a sound like the sound of mountains breaking and rocks falling.
Ning Caichen was startled by the roar of thunder. After the lingering sound of the thunder faded and the boulder rolled away, he said gently, "The wind and rain are raging, and the thunder is roaring. Let's stop this class for now and just calm down."
If the weather is predicted in advance and there is thunder, the class will usually be suspended to let the foxes hide and take a breath. There is no need to practice any exercises and disturb their minds.
This time the storm came suddenly and there was no time to avoid it.
Gong Mengbi and the five ghosts were returning with the wind when they encountered a heavy thunderstorm. The thunder blocked their way, so they fell from the sky and sailed along the river in a small boat.
The heavy rain was like a curtain of beads being spread open, covering the rivers near and far, stirring up the mist in the river and making it hazy.
The raindrops fell on the boat, just like falling on an umbrella, making crisp crackling sounds, and then slid down the sides of the boat into the river.
The five ghosts steer the boat, and everything goes smoothly.
"My lord, the wind and rain are warded off, the thunder is subdued. Can't you pass through the clouds and return bathed in thunder?"
"There are spirits in the clouds. I can't bear to collide with them, so I avoid them."
The five ghosts looked up in confusion, only to see lightning and thunder spreading across the sky like forked branches.
Gong Mengbi instructed them to sense the yin and yang energies within the clouds and rain, saying, "How can we only look at the surface and not at the inner core? Your bodies are in harmony with the five elements, and you are spiritual, ghostly, and spiritual, with clear ears and eyes. You should observe more."
The five ghosts tried to sense the yin and yang energy and distinguish the shapes of yin and yang. In a trance, they saw a shadow with lightning constantly changing in the clouds and rain where yin and yang converged.
"How strange! Are there spirits born from the thunder? How could such a powerful thunder not scatter its spirit?"
Gong Mengbi smiled and said, "Have you ever seen a rain worker?"
The Five Ghosts had never seen the Rain Worker before. Before this, Gong Mengbi had always kept them in the Fox Courtyard to take care of worldly affairs. He did not take them with him when he went to Qiantang. Later, he went into seclusion to practice. The Immortal Jinting had nothing to do with them and never took them to Taihu Lake, so they had never seen him.
“No.”
"Then we can see it today."
The essence of thunder gathered, yin and yang rubbed and intertwined, yet maintained a balance, creating the conditions for the birth of the rain worker.
The lightning flashed more and more frequently, and the sound of thunder continued.
Gong Mengbi listened to the roar of thunder and rain, and it sounded like the beating of a drum by a god, shaking a beaded curtain. Lightning flashed like a dancing dragon, its horns blazing.
The elves in the rain clouds leaped with the lightning, vibrated with the thunder, shook their heads, and gradually took shape.
Rain clouds condensed into its body, and lightning condensed into its long horns. It resembled a dragon but was not a dragon, and a tiger but was not a tiger. When it moved, it stirred up wind and rain, and drove thunder and lightning into chaos.
When its form and spirit were complete, the five ghosts couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
A rain worker is almost like living thunder, or a living rain cloud.
It roared furiously, accompanied by a torrential downpour of wind and rain, terrifying everyone. The rain worker, wandering in the clouds, suddenly seemed to sense something, looked southeast, and then roared in that direction, sending bolts of lightning crashing down into a valley.
Gong Mengbi frowned and said, "I'll go stop it."
Without waiting for the five ghosts to reply, he soared into the sky, turned into a red cloud, and landed in the rain clouds.
The red clouds attracted the attention of the rain worker. It immediately turned its head and saw Gong Mengbi stepping on the rain cloud. It immediately roared and thundered, and charged towards Gong Mengbi.
First, thunder came and struck Gong Mengbi's body directly. Then Yu Gong came, with the sharp horns on his head condensing with dazzling light, like two magic swords, stabbing at Gong Mengbi.
But Gong Mengbi just stretched out his hand and caught the lightning in his hand. He shook it violently and it turned into a lightning rope, wrapping around the rain worker in front of him.
Gong Mengbi flew up and avoided Yu Gong's attack. The lightning rope was entangled on Yu Gong's sharp corner and was pulled by Gong Mengbi, dragging Yu Gong upside down.
Gong Mengbi flew straight down, landed on Yu Gong's back, and tightened the thunder rope.
Yu Gong jumped up in shock and kept shaking his body, trying to shake Gong Mengbi off, but Gong Mengbi seemed to be stuck to him and he couldn't shake him off.
He also urged the thunder in the rain clouds to strike Gong Mengbi, but when the thunder fell near Gong Mengbi, it shrank into thunder beads and floated motionlessly.
"Be quiet."
Gong Mengbi pulled the thunder rope with one hand like a rein, and pressed the other hand on the rain worker's head. The rain worker's body kept shrinking, but gradually stabilized his form and spirit until he turned from a thunder beast into a goat, and then stepped on the ground with his hooves, without struggling anymore.
At this time, a divine light descended from the sky, and a breathless priest landed in the rain cloud. Seeing Gong Mengbi and the rain worker, he breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Gong Mengbi, saying, "Thank you for your help, fellow Taoist. You prevented this evil beast from causing any harm and saved its life."
