Chapter 855: Subdue

"These three major characters are actually here as well!"

"The Black Dragon Group travels the Boundless Seas unhindered. Even the alliance of the four Shallow Seas is not their match. Although the Sacred Heavenly Church only started rising to power in the past few years, their leader is someone very powerful.

"As for the Devil Savanna's Black Flag Army, they are a mysterious faction that even the Heavenly Saber Pavilion and the other big sects in their peak could not do anything to, even after working together and surrounding them, leaving dispiritedly after that."

Without a doubt, these three people stood at the peak of the Sky Dome Realm. Their cultivations were unfathomable, not something that ordinary Martial Sages could compare to.

However, this was just the start. Following this, another five people, whom the group of old men did not recognize, arrived.

Only the factions truly at the peak would know of these people—the guardians of the various Royal Clans. They spent most of their time in closed-door cultivation. They had also cultivated in the Kunlun Realm when they were young.

Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense picked up on these eight people. He frowned slightly. He had truly underestimated the Sky Dome Realm. These eight people were people whom he could not prevail over easily.

However, he could not be bothered about them at this time. He also did not have to worry about them. They would simply be seeking death if they wanted to cause trouble here without comprehending the will of thunder.

Xiao Chen was now two kilometers in the sky. The lightning bolts that he faced now were not as easy to deal with as the ones at the start.

He had already expended most of the energy from his Heavenly Sage Laws. However, he was still one kilometer from that golden lightning.

Every time a bolt of lightning fell, a fiery light flashed, burning his physical body, cutting through it like a knife. The pain reached the depths of his heart and bones, inflicting incomparable agony.

Even though Xiao Chen had a peak Rank 2 Sage Body, after continuous strikes from hundreds of lightning bolts, he started to show signs of exhaustion.

The electric light penetrated his body, moving everywhere inside. This was a form of torture and a baptism as well. If he could endure all this, his physical body would enjoy great benefits from this baptism.

The guardians of the five nations and the three others formed their own circles where they commented on Xiao Chen's actions.

"It looks like this junior might be able to subdue this will of thunder."

"That might not be the case. His physical body is about to reach its limits. If he keeps clashing head-on like this, the final lightning bolt will be able to shatter him into bits."

"That's strange. What is that group of Tianwu Dynasty remnants gathered like that for? Could it be that they want to strike at an opportune moment?"

"This group of people has been flourishing lately. Rumors say that they are working with the Dark Church."

"Humph! So what? That is a shady group. Do they think that they can make a comeback? With the factions behind us, subduing this group of people would be easy."

The guardians of the five nations discussed in soft voices. They did not have any thoughts about Xiao Chen subduing the will of thunder; they were merely curious.

After all, this will of thunder had been here for a long time. Many people had wanted to subdue it, but all of them ended up returning in dismay.

The reason being, the final bolt of lightning contained a strand of the will's origin. No one dared to touch it.

Lightning was the purest energy in the natural world. It had no other nature aside from berserk. No matter what one did, it would use horrifyingly explosive power to test one's endurance.

Life and death depended on that one instant. Once one endured it, it would be over. If they did not, they would fall and die here.

Xiao Chen endured such torture countless times, so many that he lost track entirely. Finally, he reached within five hundred meters of that golden bolt of lightning.

The frantic thunder that had boomed on and on suddenly stopped, leaving only the sound of wind. It became terrifyingly quiet.

Clearly, this was not the end of the ordeal. Instead, this was merely the calm before the storm.

Xiao Chen's heart sank. At this moment, that golden lightning bolt also hid in the clouds. As the thunderclouds churned, there was no sound of lightning.

A suffocating pressure came from the bottom of Xiao Chen's heart, making him feel extremely restless.

Xiao Chen, this is the final bolt of lightning. It is going to attack for real. It contains the immortal will. If you cannot endure it, only death awaits. You still can make it if you retreat now.

Ao Jiao understood this immortal lightning much better than Xiao Chen.

When Xiao Chen flew up, he had not used any Secret Treasures or Martial Techniques,relying entirely on his physical body to clash all the way. How could he give up now? He looked at the dark thunderclouds, and his blood rushed. He shouted, "Come on!"

If he could not endure this bit of lightning, then he would definitely not be able to endure the Lightning Tribulation of the seventh layer of his Cultivation Technique. If that was the case, there was no difference between dying then and now.

The thunderclouds in the dark sky churned. After some time of silence, a beam of golden light pierced through the boundless darkness, releasing a dazzling light.

"Boom!"

Under close inspection, the beam turned out to be a long sword made of golden lightning. The tip of this sword pierced through the dark clouds. Bolts of lightning tore through the sky, illuminating the entire Thunder Emperor Valley.

It's coming. The strongest attack of this immortal will of thunder is finally coming!

The five experts guarding the five nations, the three old men of the Tianwu Dynasty remnants, and the group of old men who had stayed to watch the excitement all looked over.


Over the past few thousand years, many people had died to this thunderbolt. Many proud experts had ended up fleeing it, running before they even fought.

Everyone knew that this bolt of lightning was a treasure. However, it had remained here for so many millennia without anyone being able to subdue it.

Everyone boiled with anticipation of whether Xiao Chen would be the exception or not.

"Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram!"

Just as the electric light appeared, Xiao Chen stretched out his hand, executing the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram right there and then.

The flame diagram soared upward as if it wanted to suppress the might of this lightning bolt. Naturally, if it could do so instantly, that would be for the best.

The golden lightning sword touched the center of the flame diagram, and Xiao Chen's body shook. His sea of consciousness surged. He felt dizzy and nearly fell.

With just one touch, the power of lightning contained in the sword connected with his mind via the flame diagram, infiltrating his sea of consciousness.

Refreshing cold energy came from the Sea Monarch Headscarf, allowing Xiao Chen to recover his wits. A bright light surged in his eyes.

He activated the purple talisman in his sea of consciousness. The talisman started spinning continuously, absorbing all the lightning-attributed energy that entered into his sea of consciousness.

In this stalemate, Xiao Chen discovered that although his side was rather passive, the power of his thunder was gradually distinctly strengthening as the purple Lightning Talisman absorbed this lightning-attributed energy.

"Ka ca! Ka ca!"

Cracks appeared and spread around the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram; it seemed like it would shatter at any moment. Xiao Chen squinted and decisively withdrew his counterattack. Then he activated the Sage Grade pagoda in his body in the time it took for a spark to fly.

The image of a pagoda turned from illusory to solid, encasing him.

"Pu ci!" In merely an instant, the golden lightning sword cut the image formed by this Sage Grade Secret Treasure in half. The pagoda in his body shattered at the same time, turning into streaks of scarlet light that escaped from his body.

Xiao Chen spat out a mouthful of blood. Although he looked to be in a sorry state, his face remained as calm as still water. As he looked at the descending lightning sword, he did not admit defeat at all.

Instead of retreating, he advanced. Electric light flashed underfoot as he executed Myriad Heaven Divine Fist. With tenfold combat prowess, the light on his right hand was no weaker than this lightning sword.

As everyone cried out anxiously, Xiao Chen punched this golden lightning sword. Instantly, thousands of lightning bolts crashed down, and space shattered on a grand scale.

The entire sky trembled violently. The seas surged endlessly, and the waves turned into pillars of water soaring into the clouds.

Xiao Chen vomited a mouthful of blood and moved back a hundred meters, his clothes blasted into tatters. Wounds riddled his skin.

However, he had a downright fanatical expression on his face. Finally, after his punch, the golden lightning sword had dimmed significantly.

"I don't believe that I can't subdue you!"

Xiao Chen shouted a war cry and charged over again. In an instant, he landed over a hundred punches on this slowly descending golden lightning sword that dragged the sky down together with it.

Electric light exploded on his skin and entered his body, moving through it. His internal organs, bone marrow, and blood vessels all received the baptism of the lightning, indescribable pain filling him from the inside out.

He actually reduced the previously two-meter-long golden lightning sword to palm size. However, his skin was no longer intact anywhere; his internal injuries were horrifyingly severe.

Nevertheless, all this was worth it. Xiao Chen pulled off the Sea Monarch Headscarf, and the Mental Energy in his sea of consciousness spurted out. A suction immediately swallowed up the palm-sized golden lightning sword, which turned into a beam of light and entered his sea of consciousness.

The three experts of the Tianwu Dynasty remnants exchanged glances. Then, one of them said, "Now!"

The three of them worked together, each sending out a killing move as they charged at Xiao Chen, who had just subdued the golden bolt of lightning.

At this moment, Xiao Chen's body was like a damaged city with many parts in dire need of repair. He had just finished an intense and miserable battle. As long as he recovered, he would be like a phoenix, undergoing rebirth and becoming stronger quickly.

However, this recovery required time. No matter how strong Xiao Chen's physical body was, after such severe injuries, not a single spot on his skin remained sound. His internal organs were in an even worse state.

Now was the best time to make a move on Xiao Chen. These three attackers all had great backgrounds. They were all people at the peak of the Sky Dome Realm.

The three killing moves merged as fast as lightning. Their auras were overwhelming, seeming to cover half the sky.

The five guardians had not expected these three to be so decisive. Aside from the Great Qin Nation's guardian, who immediately flew forward to block the attack, the other four old men muttered to themselves, evidently in no rush to help.

"Bang!"

A long piece of wood would break easily. Although the Great Qin Nation's guardian did his best, he could not defeat the three experts of the Tianwu Dynasty remnants.

After barely defending for one move, the momentum of the three's combined attack knocked him back in the air. Everywhere he passed, cracks appeared in space.

Just the impact was already extraordinarily powerful. This showed how strong the combined attack of the three was.

"Kill!"

After knocking back the Great Qin Nation's guardian, the three's auras flourished. They shouted a war cry and charged over even more aggressively. Clearly, they wanted to make use of this opportunity to kill Xiao Chen in one move.

In the time it took for a spark to fly, Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes. Before the other party's killing moves arrived, the strong winds kicked up by these moves sliced over like knives.
