Chapter 609 Taming the Lightning.

Shi Lang followed the attendant Xiao Lu to the stables behind the shop. The terran spotted Young Master Kim riding on the back of a Fire Heart Spirit Horse with his chin held high. The latter also spotted Shi Lang coming to the stable and asked, "This brother, are you here to look for a mount? But this Fire Heart horse is the last one they have."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "I decided to broaden my horizons. Attendant Liu told me they have a Lightning Mane Spirit Horse in the stable."

Young Master Kim sighed and said, "I bought that horse a few months ago. However, the rebellious spirit of this beast is too strong for anyone to tame. The realm of this beast is Demonic Lord, and even an early-level Immortal King might have trouble calming it down."

Shi Lang smiled and replied, "I understand that, Young Master Kim. That is why I am only here to see the beast. Thank you for being so concerned. I will only watch it from a distance."

Young Master Kim smiled and said, "Very well, then I hope you have a good time here. I still have something to do, so I shall leave."

Shi Lang bowed to him slightly as the young master walked out of the stables haughtily. The terran stood up and flexed his neck as he said, "Such a hassle to deal with these people."

Attendant Lu was surprised. He sighed and said, "I can relate to what you mean, Sir."

He had been dealing with these people who always threw around the weight of their family. He shook his head and said, "Sir, this way, please."

Shi Lang followed him inside a wooden shed where stood a black steed. The spirit horse was dashingly tall and had sturdy muscles and strong legs. Shi Lang smiled with anticipation. He looked at the beast's mane and found a faint lighting shimmer in the hair. The terran walked closer to the beast, and the spirit horse raised its head to look at the human approaching it.

Shi Lang said, "Attendant Lu, your words for selling this guy for a thousand medium-grade spirit stones?"

The attendant nodded in a daze because Shi Lang was already standing before the beast when he finished speaking. The terran gazed at the beast, who was also looking back at him. He could sense the disdain this beast held for him. Shi Lang smirked and said, "With this flimsy thing, you call yourself a Lightning Mane horse? Lower your gaze."

As he finished speaking, lightning flashed in Shi Lang's eyes. The lightning mane horse flinched a bit and then neighed. This was the first time the beast encountered someone with lightning spirit energy. The beast could not tolerate the humility and opened his mouth to let out a low, growling sound.

Shi Lang chuckled and snorted as he took a step ahead. With the follow-up of his snort, his body was covered with shimmering lightning. The sparks on his body oozed destructive energy. Let alone the beast, even Xiao Lu did not expect Shi Lang to be a person with lightning spiritual energy and that, too, so strong.

Shi Lang said, "Xiao Lu, this rope around his neck seems to be restraining his power, right?"

Attendant Lu nodded hurriedly, and Shi Lang said, "Take it off for me."

The attendant was stunned and said, "Sir, it is impossible. This beast has a deviant personality and would try to run away."

Shi Lang smiled and said, "Xiao Lu, I will buy this guy from you, dead or alive. It does not matter."

The young attendant did not know what to say. At this moment, an old voice sounded from another shed, "Xiao Lu, release the restraints."

The attendant turned to look at the source of the voice and exclaimed, "Old master, are you sure?"

The old man nodded. Shi Lang gazed at the old man and greeted him with cupped fists. This old man was an Immortal King-level practitioner. The old man was only at the early level of the Immortal King realm, but that must have taken him a lot of effort. The old man said, "Young Man, try your best."

Shi Lang smiled and replied, "I intend to do that only, Senior."

He turned back to look at the horse, now free of all the restraints. The beast was now stomping its hoof on the ground and snorting at Shi Lang. The lightning in its mane looked much more prominent than it did before. Shi Lang smiled and said, "What are you waiting for? Come at me."

The beast shook his head, let out lightning whips, and rushed at Shi Lang with lightning hooves. The terran waited for the beast to come closer before he clenched his fist and, with a lightning hook from the side. The punch was covered with lightning. Shi Lang ducked a bit and charged forward. The punch hit the beast on the side of his neck and sent it into retreat.

Shi Lang did not let off. He grabbed the lightning mane with bare hands and jumped onto its back. The beast sensed this move and began shaking his body. The struggle became intense. With every shake and jump, Shi Lang shifted his body. He used no other technique to tame the beast but sheer strength.

The beast did not give up and suddenly stood on its hind legs. Shi Lang grappled the neck with his hands. The beast was enraged, and with a roar, it released strong lightning. Shi Lang did not give up. He chuckled and let out a similar shock wave of his own. He said, "You will just hurt your core if you keep at it. Give up."

The lightning-mane horse did not wish to be subdued by a human and began running around the ground in the stable. Earlier, when it tried to attack people and rushed into the building structure, it was repelled by array formations, so the beast became clever and only attacked tried to shake off Shi Lang.

The terran was prepared to face a suicidal dive of the beast on the side at a point, but then he managed to hold his ground. The beast ran around erratically. Shi Lang did not seem to be worried. On the contrary, he was smiling like a teenager having the best time of his life. The beast was annoyed and tried all sorts of attacks and movements, but nothing made Shi Lang slip off his back.

The Terran gradually calmed down, and a dagger appeared in his hands. He placed the dagger on the nape of the beast and said in a calm tone, "I suggest that you give up. If you become my mount, then you have a slight chance to obtain freedom. However, if you act like a stubborn stud, then I will castrate you and then cut off your meat and eat it as you watch. Do you understand me?"

He calmed down because his two clones were moving away from him. It was evident that Bo Qingtan and Yun Xue were leaving the city to look for their opportunities. The terran wanted to leave earlier than them, but now he was entangled with this stubborn horse. This annoyed him.

The beast did not slow down and kept running around. Shi Lang channeled lightning at the tip of his blade and gradually pushed it against the beast's neck, drawing blood. The painful sensation from the neck made the beast realize that Shi Lang was not kidding. This human would kill him.

The beast slowed down, and Shi Lang said, "I will ask you for the last time to give in."

After a long pause, the lightning in the mane calmed down. Attendant Lu was already standing behind the old man. He gasped and said, "To think that this sir managed to tame this guy."

The old man shook his head, "He did not tame it. He scared it. There is a difference between the two terms, Xiao Lu. Beasts are only scared of beasts stronger than themselves."

The old man classified Shi Lang as a beast. The young attendant was confused, and the old man said, "This guy has a strong killing intent on himself. I bet this guy has killed over a hundred demonic cultivators."

Xiao Lu gasped and exclaimed, "But, Old Master, he is so young."

The old man sneered and said, "Xiao Lu, you are still young and do not understand that in this world of immortals, monsters exist that do not follow common sense rules. This young man is a monster like that."

The two of them walked over to Shi Lang, who sprinkled some healing pill powder on the wound he gave the beast. The old man said, "Young man, good job."

Shi Lang turned around and said, "This guy is too stubborn. If it were that Fire Heart horse, I would have left the city by now."

The old man chuckled and asked, "Where are you headed in such a hurry?"

Shi Lang smiled faintly but did not reply. The old man did not probe further and asked, "Have you forged a contract?"

Shi Lang nodded and pointed at a mark on the forehead of the Spirit Horse. The old man said, "Very well then, you can take this guy."

Shi Lang took out the pouch of spirit stones, but the old man shook his head and said, "Consider it a gift from me."

However, the terran replied, "Senior, karma is a thread I do not wish to be tied with. Please accept this price. If there is a chance, we shall meet again."

Shi Lang did not wish to be entangled with the old man. The old man also understood this and accepted the fate. After all, not everyone could become friends on the path to immortality.

Shi Lang set up a saddle and rode the beast out of the city slowly. He controlled it so well that the beast looked like any normal horse. The lightning on its body had vanished completely. As the terran stepped out of the city gates, he found himself in a troublesome situation.
