RUMBLE—!
Brilliant light flashed as silver lightning tore across the sky, filling the air with crackling arcs.
A vast shroud of silvery-white lightning enveloped the boundless lake.
This place was like a massive Thunder Pool.
On the shore, two figures appeared.
Fang Xing was somewhat surprised as he gazed at the lightning-ravaged lake.
’This is the first time I’ve ever seen such a spectacle.’
Flashes of lightning blanketed the lake, and the air itself was saturated with the potent Power of Thunder and Lightning.
He extended his Primordial Spirit Projection, but an instant later, a piercing pain shot through him.
’Something’s wrong. The lightning here isn’t normal. Even my Primordial Spirit can’t peer through it.’
Fang Xing felt the difference in just an instant, and his expression hardened.
Though the projection had only been for a moment, his Primordial Spirit had been slightly damaged.
Heavenly Thunder Power naturally suppressed souls and Primordial Spirits.
Fortunately, his powerful Primordial Spirit was already ninety percent recovered. Even though a trace of his Divine Soul Power had been harmed, it wasn’t a major issue.
Heavenly Thunder Power was the ultimate expression of firmness and yang in the world!
Only by reversing the Divine Soul, transforming it from yin to yang, and metamorphosing from a Primordial Spirit into a Yang God could one become immune to the world’s Power of Thunder and Lightning.
And the leap from Primordial Spirit to Yang God was a feat as difficult as ascending to heaven itself.
In fact, it was said to be several times more difficult than even attaining sainthood.
As he looked at Thunder Marsh Lake, the raging electrical light pulsed with an aura of utter destruction.
The water seemed to be made of liquid lightning. Since his Primordial Spirit could not penetrate it, he had no way of seeing what lay within the vast Thunder Marsh Lake.
’Maybe I should just blast it.’
The thought surfaced in Fang Xing’s mind as he stared at the vast Thunder Marsh Lake.
"Sir," Yun Shu said from the side, her expression grave as she gazed at the lake, "the Fierce Beasts in Thunder Marsh Lake are powerful. There might even be one at the Demon Emperor Level."
Her words instantly cemented his decision.
"You step back a bit," Fang Xing said. "I’ll give it a try!"
Yun Shu was taken aback. Before she could even say anything, True Essence swirled around Fang Xing, and he soared into the air.
BZZZT~!
The lightning permeating the air flashed, suddenly growing even more frenzied as if drawn by some invisible force.
’This guy... he’s unbelievably reckless!’
Yun Shu’s eyelid twitched. She retreated quickly, gathering her True Essence, ready to strike at a moment’s notice.
Wreathed in True Essence, Fang Xing walked on air until he was hovering a thousand feet from the shore, high above Thunder Marsh Lake.
His aura began to surge.
VMMMM—!
His Sun Golden Flame ignited, and in the next instant, golden flames swept outward.
They instantly formed a thousand-foot-long Flame Divine Sword.
’Slash!’
With a single thought, the Flame Divine Sword formed from the Sun Golden Flame plunged fiercely toward Thunder Marsh Lake.
BOOM—!
A colossal explosion sent waves a thousand feet high into the air as silver arcs of electricity flashed, filling the void.
The sword plunging into Thunder Marsh Lake was like a giant boulder being dropped into the water, kicking up monstrous waves.
The spray churned and the waves surged to the heavens!
VMMMM—!
A ferocious and violent aura erupted from within the lake, accompanied by flashes of lightning.
’Looks like this "fish-blasting" technique worked pretty well!’ Fang Xing’s eyes lit up as he felt the ferocious, violent aura emanating from the lake.
WHOOSH—!
A Thunder Ball shot out from the lake, unleashing a torrent of electricity.
’A mere trifle.’ Unfazed by the approaching Destructive Thunderball, Fang Xing threw a punch. A golden dragon shadow howled as he activated his Dragon Roar Palm, unleashing a roaring, seemingly corporeal golden Divine Dragon.
BOOM—!!
The dragon shadow and the Thunder Ball collided, throwing up a massive wave. Ripples distorted the air as a shockwave swept out in all directions.
Fueled by his immense Power, his Dragon Roar Palm was simply unstoppable. It destroyed the Thunder Ball in a single blow.
ROAR—!
A colossal, lion-shaped Fierce Beast burst from the water, sending spray everywhere as its terrifying aura filled the air.
It was a Fierce Beast at the Early Stage of Demon Emperor, its body wreathed in crackling electricity, a master of the Power of Thunder and Lightning.
"Excellent!"
Fang Xing was filled with excitement upon seeing the Emperor Level Fierce Beast emerge.
VMMMM!!
An overwhelming Slaughter Qi surged forth as a purple Demon Saber materialized.
The Life-taking Demon Saber!
Gathering an endless, overwhelming amount of Life-taking Qi and fueled by his Power, it erupted with supreme divine might.
ROAR—!
Sensing the terror of this slash, the Emperor Level Fierce Beast roared. The boundless Power of Thunder and Lightning around it converged, forming a brilliant Thunder Shield that enveloped its entire body.
Here in its home territory, its abilities were on full display!
At this moment, even Yun Shu, watching from a distance, couldn’t help but grow tense.
Even though she knew how powerful Fang Xing was, she couldn’t help but feel nervous.
SWOOSH—!
He activated the Heaven and Earth Demon Suppression Slash—a single, fleetingly brilliant strike!
The brilliant light of the blade illuminated nearly the entire Thunder Marsh Lake as it descended.
It was as if heaven and earth themselves were about to be torn asunder!
RUMBLE!!!
The entire Thunder Marsh Lake shook violently. Countless plumes of water shot skyward as the lake’s surface churned and surged.
The single slash seemed to have forcibly cleaved Thunder Marsh Lake in two.
From the shore, an astonishing chasm was visible in Thunder Marsh Lake. The water had been brutally forced aside by the terrifying Sword Qi.
SCHLICK—!
In a flash, from the center of the destruction, the reek of blood wafted out.
A massive head was sent flying, crashing onto the shore.
THUD!
It landed with the force of a falling boulder, smashing into the ground not far from Yun Shu.
"It’s... it’s dead!"
Yun Shu’s eye twitched uncontrollably as she stared at the head of the Early Stage of Demon Emperor Fierce Beast.
’Killed with a single slash!’
’Is his Cultivation really at the Early Stage of Grandmaster!?’
’Not even someone at the Late Stage of Grandmaster should have the power to kill an Early Stage of Demon Emperor Fierce Beast in one blow!’
The lake water churned. The towering curtain of water collapsed, and the chasm carved by the slash was swallowed once more by the lake.
