Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality

Chapter 1484: Chapter 746: Brothers Who Share Everything

After some explanation, Lin Beichen finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.

It turned out that while meditating on the mountainside, unknowingly, five years had passed.

During these five years, the town had prospered under Chen Jie’s governance, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

However, in the past two years, the fields within the town were ravaged by a swarm of locusts, leading to no harvest and a decrease in the people’s quality of life.

Close by, Qingping Town experienced similar circumstances, but their City Lord turned his eye towards this town. Just yesterday, the town was raided, and Chen Jie along with Sun Yanfeng and others were severely injured, unable to fully protect the populace.

"Daoist, the people are now so hungry that front chests stick to their backs, resorting to eating tree bark and Guanyin soil. We beseech you to descend the mountain and save the world!" The Daoist Child, with tear-stained cheeks, kept bowing.

Lin Beichen took a deep breath, understanding that the second trial had arrived. Without saying more, he turned and followed the Daoist Child to the entrance of the Daoist Temple.

A considerable number of citizens had gathered at the temple entrance, most with haggard faces, looking desperate and cold.

Upon seeing Lin Beichen, they were overwhelmed with tears, feeling invigorated as if suddenly gaining strength.

"Great! The Daoist has come down the mountain! Rescue is here!"

"Daoist, please save us!"

...

Looking into the expectant eyes of the people, Lin Beichen pursed his lips, his heart churned with emotion.

He hurriedly comforted the citizens and then descended the mountain into town.

The City Lord’s Mansion was in shambles. Lin Beichen hurriedly entered, seeing a person barely hanging on, being tended by a woman beside them.

"Brother Lin?" The woman turned her head, seeing Lin Beichen, her eyes filled with excitement.

This was none other than Sun Yanfeng, while it was City Lord Chen Jie who lay upon the bed.

"How did it come to this!" Lin Beichen briefly examined their injuries and found both were seriously hurt, especially Chen Jie, who had a knife wound at his waist and ribs.

"There was nothing we could do; the City Lord of Qingping Town was ruthless, rampaging like a bandit. We fought desperately to protect the populace, yet in the end, we were defeated."

"However, it seemed there were traces of Western Region people. During the battle, we initially had the upper hand, but after they unleashed a white smoke, the invading soldiers’ combat capabilities increased significantly..."

Lin Beichen nodded: "Looks like they came prepared; those from the Western Regions have long coveted this town, not giving up even if they fled."

"Ding, congratulations Host on successfully exchanging Rebirth Pills ×2 in the mall, consuming twelve hundred Faith Values!"

Lin Beichen accessed the system, using Faith Values to exchange two Rebirth Pills, consuming a portion of the accumulated Faith Values.

He placed the pills in each one’s hand: "Take this elixir, and within two days, your injuries will heal completely. I’ll find a way to handle Qingping Town’s issues!"

Lin Beichen spoke these words gritting his teeth, evidently in genuine anger, before turning and leaving.

Qingping Town, today he would storm it!

Located not far away, Lin Beichen arrived in less than an hour.

The town was considerably larger; entering through the town gates, Lin Beichen saw its soldiers pale and weak, clearly leading a poor life.

He inquired about the location of the City Lord’s Mansion. Upon reaching its doors, he felt a familiar strange aura emanating from within.

"James...it really is you!"

Lin Beichen could barely repress his inner fury; people of the Western Church Court truly were lingering phantoms!

They had escaped to Qingping Town, infiltrating the City Lord’s Mansion, clearly having a hand in Qingping Town’s current situation!

A guard beside him reached out to stop Lin Beichen, who lowered his voice, uttering just two words: "Stand aside..."

"The City Lord has instructed that all who do not report in should be..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was flung away in an instant.

Lin Beichen cleared his way through several people, storming into the main hall of the City Lord’s Mansion.

At this moment, he saw the City Lord of Qingping Town along with James discussing matters.

Lin Beichen squinted, locking all his focus on James.

"You really are a lingering phantom..."

James was momentarily shocked upon seeing Lin Beichen, but quickly regained his calm.

Lin Beichen glanced at the City Lord seated at the top, coldly speaking: "Yet another useless breed! As a descendant of dragons, to be bewildered and led astray by Western scoundrels, I truly wonder what use it is keeping you!"

As soon as the words were spoken, Lin Beichen waved his right hand, a phantom flashed, instantly appearing beside the City Lord, grasping him by the neck and forcefully tossing him. The City Lord couldn’t even manage a word before being killed outright.

"Next, it’s your turn..."

Lin Beichen’s voice seemed to emanate from the Nine Netherworld’s Hell, carrying heavy killing intent.

James grinned: "Want to kill me? You must ask our Lord if he agrees!"

After saying this, he attempted to throw out a spherical steel ball to escape with the white fog. However, Lin Beichen would give him no such chance.

In the instant James lifted his foot to move, Lin Beichen silently appeared behind him, pressing his right hand upon his skull, drawing a talisman with his left hand in the air.

"The Dao is the law of heaven! Let all thunder gather, thunder to dispel evil! Break!"

Just as the words were spoken, the sky thundered in bleak resonance, a celestial thunderbolt as thick as an arm descended from heaven, reducing James to ashes in an instant!

The suddenness of James’s death terrified several Western Church Court individuals nearby, scrambling in terror to flee.

Lin Beichen gently exhaled, with a few lingering celestial thunder strikes, resolving the remaining people.

Once all settled, Lin Beichen planned to reorganize the town but found it depleted of any valuable items.

These had evidently been covertly moved away by James and his ilk; this was merely an empty city. Compared to the town managed by Chen Jie, its people’s hunger was even more severe.

"Damn it!"

Lin Beichen clenched his fists, seeing the citizens struggle due to hunger, his heart ached as if bleeding.

He took a brief respite, returned to find Chen Jie, bringing him to the outskirts.
