Chapter 1253: God-exterminating Thundering Sound (Part 2)

“I am relieved.” Saleen laughed. He summoned the people beside him and allowed Nailisi to lead everyone in cleaning up the ancient battlefield and abandoned city. Saleen stood guard 5 kilometers from the Rough Stone of Darkness and used his Thundering Phantasm to destroy the god’s shades from the Rough Stone of Darkness.

Theisio could not help but feel immense regret. He had entered the rough stone, and leaving was far too difficult. Unless Saleen allowed him to quietly summon a god to create a body for him, he would be trapped within the Rough Stone of Darkness until his death.

How could Saleen allow his summoning to be successful. Only the two oracles would foolishly allow him to complete the action.

The Rough Stone of Darkness was like a small mountain, blocking the exit of the cemetery of the giants. Saleen used his territory to envelop the Rough Stone of Darkness. The stone was unable to disperse Saleen’s territory and continuously release energy assaults. Saleen could stand at a place that was further away as much as possible to wait for Theisio’s summon skill.

Once there was a shade, Saleen released a Thundering Phantasm. It only possessed offensive power under certain circumstances.

Saleen recalled a proverb, ‘there is no magic spell that is ineffective.’.

Theisio had placed himself in a hopeless situation. As he recalled the entire process, Theisio discovered that if he had not made mistakes in one part of the process, he still would have come to this situation. It was as if it was Fate’s arrangement. He had put up an intense struggle, but he had struggled into an even deeper mire. Of the choices he had made, there were a few times where he had felt muddleheaded.

Was Saleen fortunate, or was someone helping him?

A skill of fate was something that the Lord of Glory definitely did not possess. Only a professional who was at least level 16 would be able to perform it.

Furthermore, up till now, Theisio did not have any grounds to choose. He had to summon the Dark God of Destruction. It consumed the power in his three godly items. Now, they were competing to see who would be able to last to the end. If Saleen’s magic could not be released, then he would only be able to look on as the Dark God of Destruction took form and killed all of the living creatures within the cemetery.

Theisio gritted his teeth and persevered. He did not believe that a level 10 mage would be able to last against a level 11 holy master with three godly items for long. Destroying the summon skill could only be done by Saleen. No matter how many subordinates Saleen had, they would not be able to approach the Rough Stone of Darkness.

Of course, Saleen understood that. He had calculated it very clearly. With the speed of his mental power regeneration, he could not keep releasing the Thundering Phantasm. However, he still had the Thunder Dragon Blaster, which could also destroy the Dark God of Destruction. While using the Thunder Dragon Blaster, he could take the time to rest and recover his mental power.

Theisio wanted to exhaust his mental power. He needed to consume all of the divine crystals he had on him before he could even think about it.

Saleen was not at all anxious. He slowly analyzed the Dark God of Destruction’s shade.

The image of the Dark God of Destruction was a god in human form and about 30 meters tall. The god’s facial features were cold and handsome and did not appear particularly evil. He had three arms. The third arm held a large snake.

The two normal arms held weapons. One held a warhammer, and the other carried a square shield.

A god who liked to battle was not easy to deal with. No matter what, Saleen could not let the Dark God of Destruction come out. He had a means of escape, if it was necessary. He could enter the energy barrier for Lex’s protection.

Time dragged on. Saleen calculated that Theisio’s summoning the gods was slower and slower. It was not because Theisio’s capabilities had increased, but because Theisio was testing Saleen’s power.

Saleen’s calculating was stronger than Theisio’s. He was able to calculate that, unless Theisio was able to use frames as a unit of measurement in summoning the gods, his mental power could hold for a few days.

Saleen retrieved the Thunder Dragon Blaster to refine it again.

The runes on the Thunder Dragon Blaster were too simple.He possessed 360,000,000 lightning runes, so he could promote the Thunder Dragon Blaster to a higher grade.

The Thunder Dragon Blaster originally shot lightning icicles. Saleen no longer needed that as he knew how to condense balls of lightning. Using the Thunder Dragon Blaster to shoot out a ball of lightning would be a fatal attack.

What Saleen needed to consider was whether or not to retain the power of the lightning icicles.

Releasing a ball of lightning would be too stressful for the Thunder Dragon Blaster. The time would take to recover would probably be way too long. Saleen was also afraid that the Thunder Dragon Blaster would refine into a piece of equipment that he could only use once in half a year. He could not bear it.

Saleen calmed his mind, retrieved the level 19 Star Gathering Needle, and began to draw star charts on the inner part of the Thunder Dragon Blaster. If he wanted to stabilize the Thunder Dragon Blaster, it was a necessary procedure. After the thunder dragon materials had been refined, they would be at the pinnacle of level 16. Adding in star charts and starlines made sure that the equipment would not be under too much pressure every time a ball of lightning was released.

The power of the constellations in the Star Gathering Needle was poured into the star charts by Saleen. Saleen had already decided to gift the Star Gathering Needle to Gaine, sp there was no longer any need to conserve the power inside it.

What Gaine wanted was the needle, not the power in it. Gaine would be able to escape from the Astrology Tower with the needle. After escaping from the Astrology Tower and entering a higher ranked Crystal Wall system, Gaine wished to regain a human body, which was not difficult either.

The Thunder Dragon’s appearance did not change much. The starlines and star charts were engraved on the inner part of the Thunder Dragon Blaster. Saleen was timid. He wanted to avoid destroying the properties of the materials themselves. If not for the fact that thunder dragons were naturally able to manipulate electric currents, the Thunder Dragon Blaster could not possibly have been smelted either.

If the materials were destroyed, it would be very difficult for Saleen to find the same materials again.

Saleen refined 360 star charts in the pipe of the Thunder Dragon Blaster. The star charts consumed a large portion of the energy in the level 19 Star Gathering Needle. The constellations’ radiance flowed along the Thunder Dragon Blaster. Only then did millions of lightning runes fly out before Saleen’s eyes and gradually vanish inside the Thunder Dragon Blaster.

The original magic patterns had been modified. Saleen used the magic arrays crafted by his thunder dragons as a basis to refine the Thunder Dragon Blaster once more. Water Flames enveloped the insides of the entire blaster. Saleen only put in a miniscule amount of Six Elements’ Heavy Water.

It was as if a life was born in the inner part of the Thunder Dragon Blaster. Saleen felt the tremors of Thundering Sound that had not been released by him. Saleen hurriedly placed Water Flames into the Genesis Stock Solution. The item could catalyze the creation of Weapon’s Spirits.

A huge thunder dragon shade surfaced in the blaster. The thunder dragon was over 600 meters long. It roared in Saleen’s lightning territory. Saleen looked at the weapon’s spirit he had created and without hesitation, he measured out even more Six Elements’ Heavy Water from his necklace and gave it to the thunder dragon’s shade to devour.

The thunder dragon suddenly drilled into the Thunder Dragon Blaster. It seemed that it was impossible for the shade to become a real thunder dragon. Saleen did not mind. He saw that the Thunder Dragon Blaster had changed into the likeness of the shade.

The space between the two sharp horns on its head had formed an octagonal magic array. The middle of the array was the place where the ball of lightning would be released. The mouth of the Thunder Dragon Blaster continued to be where the lightning icicles were released.

Saleen was extremely satisfied. It was already good that this item had not been spoiled.

A small silver ball of lightning appeared between the two horns of the Thunder Dragon Blaster. It was probably only the size of a pinecone, while the size of the balls of lightning created by Saleen’s thunder dragons were the size of a watermelon.

The difference between the energy contained in the two types of lightning was not small. Saleen was satisfied. Although a large ball of lightning was powerful, it was still a waste of energy. The ball of lightning was small, but it was sufficient to kill strong enemies. The area in which lightning was the most amazing was rules. No matter how little energy was contained in it, it surpassed most of the magic spells that Saleen knew.

The power contained in this pinecone-sized ball of lightning surpassed all of the level 13 divine spell attacks that Saleen had encountered before.

He didn’t know how fast it was.

The scales of the dragon body of the Thunder Dragon Blaster were still growing. Four dragon claws clasped Saleen’s arm. Saleen felt like a thunder dragon was growing on his arm. The feeling allowed Saleen to become more familiar with the rules of lightning.

As for the weapon’s spirit inside, Saleen tried to summon it, feeling that the weapon’s spirit did not have much intelligence. He would still need his own mental power to maneuver the piece of equipment when he used it.

The good thing was that Saleen had time. He did not expect that once he was a level 10, he would be able to refine a satisfactory piece of equipment.

Saleen quickly recovered his mental power with a divine crystal. The refining session had consumed over half of his mental power. The Dark God of Destruction’s shades were still appearing from the Rough Stone of Darkness increasingly quickly.

Saleen waited until after the growth of the scales of the Thunder Dragon Blaster was completed. Only then did he raise his arm to shoot a silver ball of lightning.

The silver colored ball of lightning was under the control of Saleen’s mental power and flew in a straight line. it was also much faster, close to the speed of a bow and arrow.

The ball of lightning had not dissipated after 5 kilometers. Saleen maneuvered it, even making a curve in the air. Being slow had its benefits, as the lightning was very easy for Saleen to manipulate. He did not feel as if his mental power was burning away.

It had a weapon’s spirit. The effects of its usage obviously surpassed its original self.

The Dark God of Destruction had already descended to his death. What the Rough Stone of Darkness summoned was merely the power of rules that had been formed before. It could simulate the Dark God of Destruction’s power and properties. The stone was even more stable than a divine persona. Hundreds of millions of years ago, the Dark God of Destruction had been born from that piece of stone.

The ball of lightning hit the newly appeared god’s shade dead on. This time, the lightning was not destroyed along with the shade. Rather, it erupted with a strong Thundering Sound, shaking the clone until it shattered. Then, the ball of lightning crashed into the Rough Stone of Darkness headfirst.
