Super War God in the City-Chapter 368: Thunderstorm
```
Faced with Ling Fan’s indifferent attitude, Murong Fei’s expression changed, suddenly feeling like she wasted her warmth on a cold unappreciative person. She, too, could be considered a favored daughter of heaven—when had she ever been so rejected?
"Presumptuous! Who do you think you are? To not give face to Sister Fei, apologize immediately!" Xiang Jie, after being stunned for a moment, couldn’t hold back and scolded Ling Fan.
He had taken an instant dislike to Ling Fan and was holding back a bellyful of rage with nowhere to vent. Now, seeing this fool defy Murong Fei, it was the perfect opportunity to let off steam and curry favor with the beauty, killing two birds with one stone.
Standing to the side, Mu Ziping, who had just snapped back to reality, stammered, "He... What did he just say?"
"Fuck, this dumbass just rejected Sister Fei’s kindness. Motherfucker, little bastard, you’re not qualified to climb Shennong Peak, get lost!" Xiang Jie huffed coldly.
"No, no, the line before that, the one before that!" Mu Ziping’s eyes widened.
"The line before? From... the Secular World?" Suddenly remembering something, Xiang Jie too stared dumbfounded at Ling Fan’s retreating figure.
Only then did the seven people present suddenly react. Everyone had been focused on Ling Fan’s rejection of Murong Fei, neglecting the earlier part of his statement.
The shock of Ling Fan’s refusal was too much to process as everyone found it unbelievable. Murong Fei’s beauty and demeanor were undeniably stunning; to say she could mesmerize fish and wild geese would be an understatement.
This damn kid was actually acting haughty, turning down Murong Fei’s kindness. How could they not be astonished? How could they not be angry?
"Fuck, he’s an ant from the Secular World?" Xiang Jie nearly popped his eyeballs out.
He felt that with every additional word exchanged with the other party, he was lowering his own status. He was furious because, despite all his bluster, Ling Fan hadn’t addressed a single word to him.
However, by this time, Ling Fan had started to climb!
If this had happened in the past, Ling Fan would’ve already drawn his sword, not caring about the Five Peaks or any other peak—first kill you, then talk.
But today, he didn’t want to stoop to the level of these clowns. Deep inside, it seemed like a voice was calling him, making him eager to climb up and see for himself!
As Ling Fan climbed the cliff, he discovered a peculiar issue—the gravity on this cliff was more than ten times stronger than standing on the ground.
He remembered Qiao Yuchan mentioning to him that initially, it was five times greater, and it would gradually increase as one ascended. The peak was to be ten times at most—could she have remembered it wrong?
Even though it was ten times the gravity, he still climbed swiftly and soon reached a height of twenty to thirty meters.
"You son of a bitch, this ant dares to ignore me. Damn it, I will kill him!" Xiang Jie jumped in rage.
"Hehe, Brother Xiang, no need to be so annoyed. Didn’t you see? Not a peep from him—he must be scared stiff.
Seeing us in such numbers, he chickened out. His desperate climb is just to get away from us!" Mu Ziping sneered.
Hearing this, Xiang Jie felt a bit better, sneering as he watched Ling Fan climb, "Hehe, so scared he became a real pussy. True to his Secular World origins. I guarantee that dumbass will fall soon enough, pathetic!"
In the eyes of those gloating over his misfortune, Ling Fan did not fall. Instead, he climbed further and further away, becoming a tiny black dot.
"Fuck, motherfucker can really book it, that dog!" Xiang Jie cursed, feeling he had lost face.
Hidden under her white veil, Murong Fei bit her lip, a complex look in her eyes as she silently wondered, "Could it be that he disdains to accompany me?"
The pride of the young girl took a significant hit. Watching Ling Fan’s figure grow smaller, she said, "Enough with the noise, let’s set off!"
Saying this, she took the lead in climbing the cliff. As soon as she started, she felt the change in gravity and was shocked. She looked up again at the figure above her. Your journey continues at novelbuddy
This guy can climb so quickly under such heavy gravity? Murong Fei was somewhat startled.

Seeing Murong Fei begin her ascent, the others, not wanting to be left behind, quickly joined her on the cliff and started to climb.
This climb was no small matter—the Elders were each startled. They were not first-timers here and were well aware of the usual gravity on this cliff.
But now, it had unexpectedly doubled, a full ten times the normal level.
"Fuck, this gravity?" Xiang Jie’s face suddenly changed color, it being his first time here.
Mu Ziping was also here for the first time and couldn’t help but look up at Ling Fan above, "Motherfucker, that kid’s got some skills!"
The Elders took a deep breath and warned the three, "The gravity here has changed; it wasn’t this strong before. Everyone, be careful, and if it’s too much, retreat!"
Although the Elders gave their warning, everyone was holding their breath with determination; if that ant from the Secular World can do it, why would they back down?
Like geckos, they all began to climb rapidly upwards, intent on catching up with Ling Fan’s figure.
The sky-piercing Shennong Peak cut through several cloud layers. From the thousands of zhang high summit looking down, the mountains were filled with the chirping of birds and shades of green, creating a scene akin to a heavenly realm.
```
At this moment, in an ancient cave on a cliff near the summit, a dazzling streak of golden light flashed by, bursting out of the cave. It spiraled in the sky for several rounds, then violently collapsed into countless converging specks of gold light.
In the midst of the explosive convergence of golden light, a woman in a fluttering red dress, serene and removed from the mundane, appeared. The gold light transformed into several paths; one path became a golden step phoenix hairpin on the woman’s head, while the other two turned into a pair of gold bracelets on each of her hands!
Twin red silks, nearly a hundred meters long, were intertwined around the woman’s smooth, jade-like arms, pulling her through the skies!
Underneath the billowing hem of her red gown, a golden bell hung from a beautiful ankle, partially bare. With light and elegant steps in the air, she moved as if she were the very Graceful Fairy herself.
The diagonal fluttering of the red silks in the sky seemed to pull the floating maiden back to the heavens, to prevent her from being desecrated by the secular world below.
Indeed, she was a peerless beauty with delicate features. Treading through emptiness, her bright and clear eyes wandered as she looked down from the void.
"A hundred thousand years, a hundred cycles of reincarnation; I have finally kept my promise and waited until your return," the woman murmured, nodding slightly with a hint of a smile.
In an instant, the entire world seemed to brighten with her smile.
"A hundred thousand years, you’ve kept me waiting long enough. In this solitude, I suppose it’s time I collected some interest from you!"
The woman seemed quite happy, smiling sweetly as she quickly raised her lotus root-like arm and formed a Dharma Seal with her slender fingers, sending a streak of light towards Shennong Peak below.
Suddenly, the sunny Shennong Peak became engulfed in dark clouds, and the day turned gloomily dark!
At this time, Murong Fei and others on the Shennong Cliff had climbed nearly half the distance, all of them panting and resting against the rock face.
"Make sure everyone has enough elixirs to replenish your Origin Force!" an experienced Elder reminded.
Because the gravitational force had changed, making it stronger than normal, their consumption of elixirs had increased significantly.
"It should be enough, at least to sustain us until we reach the First Layer Terrace," Murong Fei stated.
There are three terraces on Shennong Peak; for hundreds of years, most people only made it to the first, a rare few reached the second, and it was rumored that no one had ever ascended the third.
Today, Murong Fei’s original goal was to reach the Second Path, but given the current situation, reaching the first would be an achievement.
However, upon seeing Ling Fan only twenty meters away, a new surge of strength filled Murong Fei’s heart as she was determined to catch up with him.
"Heh, look at that idiot, he looks like he can’t hold on much longer, see how he stops for a long time after climbing each section. From this height, if he falls, not even scraps will remain!" Xiang Jie sneered maliciously.
He had been persisting with gritted teeth, secretly wishing for Ling Fan to fall to his death.
However, they didn’t know that while the gravity affecting them was tenfold, the gravity on Ling Fan was fifteenfold.
At that moment, Ling Fan was frustrated as well, "Damn it, why is the gravity getting stronger!"
Muttering to himself, he popped an elixir into his mouth to recover his Origin Force. If it weren’t for the elixirs he had robbed in Zhongnan before, he would have been in trouble today.
Just as everyone paused to rest, the bright day suddenly darkened, followed by rolling thunderclouds portending an upcoming storm of apocalyptic proportions.
"Fuck, is it going to rain, and that fiercely?" Mu Ziping exclaimed in dismay.
The rain would be disastrous, the wet and slippery cliff face even more challenging to scale!
"Damn, really bad luck, it starts to rain just like that!" Xiang Jie cursed as well.
But the Elders, exchanging looks of horror, began to tremble as they spoke, "This... This isn’t rain, it’s the legendary Thunderclap Storm recorded in ancient texts, which only occurs once every hundred years.
According to those records, it shouldn’t appear for another thirty years, why has it come early?"
Murong Fei and the others looked astonished, judging by the expressions of the Elders; it seemed this storm was truly fearsome!
"Elder Mei, what is this Thunderclap Storm?" Murong Fei asked, turning to Murong Mei who was not far from her.
Xiang Jie and Mu Ziping also looked on with curiosity. However, before Elder Murong could explain, a violent bolt of purple lightning struck close by them, accompanied by a rolling clap of thunder.
"Crack!"
At the point of impact, scorched markings appeared and a rock weighing several hundred pounds was smashed to pieces, tumbling off the cliff.
The group exchanged glances, knowing well that even at their Grandmaster Realm full strength, they could only shatter a small part of such rocks on Shennong Cliff.
There was no need for further explanation from Elder Murong; if such a lightning bolt hit them, they would directly be "Transcending Tribulation and Becoming Immortal."
