Chapter 100. Blood and Thunder.
The sunless sky remained a swirling mess of gray and crimson as Kirin stepped out from the cracked stone ruins he’d used as shelter. The wind was dry, coarse with ash, and the ground beneath his boots still crunched with old bones and scorched sand. The silence was never complete in this land. There were always whispers. Murmurs beneath the wind, like ghosts still trying to speak.Kirin glanced back at the ruins, at the mural that had meant nothing to him but somehow still felt important. It had whispers of chaos energy, of ancient sects lost to time, of something called the Black Flame. He had memorized every symbol, even if he didn’t understand them yet. Someday he might. But not today.Today, he had to move.The ground stretched endlessly ahead of him, broken only by the rise and fall of jagged hills and spires that pierced the horizon like blackened teeth. He moved cautiously, every step measured. The underworld didn’t look like the kind of place where one made mistakes.His body
Chapter 99. The Lost Shrine.
Further in, the ruined shrine opened up into a circular chamber. Faint light filtered through the cracks in the ceiling above, casting narrow beams onto the dust covered floor. The air here didn’t move, it sat heavy, like the room hadn’t breathed in centuries.He stared at the wall murals.They stretched around the chamber in a single band of dark painted images, figures cloaked in black fire, holding lightning in their hands that wasn’t white or blue or gold… but black, like his.Kirin stepped forward slowly, scanning the figures. Their faces were hidden, or burned away by time. But the power they were using in the drawings was unmistakable. Black lightning, black flames, all were elements of Chaos.At the center of the back wall, a larger figure stood surrounded by others kneeling before it. It held a staff shaped like a spiral. Behind it, the mural showed a broken sky, and rising from its chest was the same lightning Kirin had used just hours ago.He didn’t understand the writing b
Chapter 98. Sparks and Stone.
The corpse of the creature lay twisted in the sand, smoke curling from the gaping holes Kirin’s lightning had burned through its chest and limbs. The air still hummed faintly with static. Kirin knelt beside the body, his hands shaking, not from fear, but from exhaustion, hunger, and the deep ache of something new taking root in his bones.He didn’t fully understand the black lightning yet. It wasn’t like the blue lightning he used to control. That had been an extension of his will. A tool, a weapon he could wield like a sword.But this? This was different.This lightning had a mind of its own.He clenched his fists and tried to summon it again, but nothing.No crackle, no spark, not even a warm tingle in his veins.He tried harder, focusing on the same flow of power he had felt earlier. His Dantian pulsed faintly, but the lightning didn’t come.“Come on,” he muttered. “Just a little... Anything is okay.”Still nothing.He stood up slowly and looked at the creature’s charred remains. I
Chapter 97: Bones in the Sand.
Kirin woke to pain. A low, gnawing ache that stretched from the base of his spine to the tips of his fingers. His throat was dry, his lips were cracked, and his body felt like it had been scraped against stone for days. He tried to move, but even blinking sent sharp flashes of pain through his body.The air was heavier here. Not just thick with heat or smoke, but heavy like it carried the weight of souls. Every breath felt stolen and the ground felt rough to the touch, jagged sand mixed with ash and bone. That much he could tell. His face was pressed against it.He groaned and sat up slowly. His body protested with every movement that he made, and dark dust clung to his clothes. Cuts lined his arms and shoulders, his blood had dried into dark lines down his skin. He felt weak, drained, like whatever energy had carried him through the fall had finally run out.He looked around.The sky above was a dull reddish grey. No sun, no moon. Just swirling clouds that cracked with silent flashes
Chapter 96. The Endless Pit
The air hit him like a wall.One second Kirin was floating in eerie silence, the next thing, he was falling.The fall ended with a brutal slam, his body hitting cracked stone with a loud thud. Dust and ash exploded outward. He rolled once, twice, before finally skidding to a stop against what felt like sharp rock and scorched earth.Everything ached.Every joint in his body, every nerve. His ears rang from the sudden impact as he lost balance, and he blinked rapidly to get rid of the dust and ash in his eyes. But no matter how many times he blinked, the view didn’t change.Dark.Not the darkness from the night, but an unnatural darkness.Above him, the sky churned with black clouds that looked like smoke trapped with nowhere to go. They moved in slow spirals, casting sickly shadows over everything. Lightning flashed behind them, but it wasn’t the kind he knew. These weren’t clouds made from rain or thunder. These were clouds made from something he didn't know.Ash rained down in thin,
Chapter 95. Black Lightning Reborn.
Kirin had been falling for three more days.Three days of no food, no water, no rest. Just a never ending drop through a world that had no bottom, no walls, and no answers. He didn’t know if his body was even human anymore. He didn’t feel hunger like he used to. Thirst was just a dull ache now, buried under a mountain of questions and hollow grief.But what surprised him the most, more than the lack of pain, more than the silence was that his essence was still there.That shouldn’t have been possible.Seth had taken everything.Kirin had felt his lightning ripped out of him. He had screamed as it was torn from his soul, felt himself die like a part of him was taken away forever, and yet... he could still feel something. It wasn’t lightning but it wasn’t entirely unfamiliar.He didn’t know if that made him lucky or cursed.He stared down at his own body while falling. There was no gravity, but it still felt like down. His arms floated near his sides, his robes torn and scorched from th
