Chapter 1955: Sea of Lightning
Translator: Legge
Berserk power splattered everywhere and almost half the City Lord’s residence was overturned, causing the world to tremble!
The saber and spear dissipated at the same time.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue did not gain any advantage in this clash!
“True Essence!”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue exclaimed, “How is that possible?! How can you condense True Essence with your Dao Fruit shattered?!”
After cultivating to the Perfected One realm and condensing a Dao Fruit, all the Essence Qi would be absorbed and refined by the Dao Fruit before flowing into the body, forming an extremely condensed and pure power.
That was True Essence.
Not only that, True Essence contained the Dao and Dharmic arts of cultivators.
Therefore, after cultivating to the Perfected One realm and becoming a Perfected Immortal, even if it was just an ordinary attack or the most ordinary Dharmic art, it was enough to crush many divine powers and secret skills!
Even if a Heaven Immortal expert released a supreme divine power, it would be difficult for him to defend against the power of True Essence.
Of course, it would be a different story for peerless divine powers.
Under normal circumstances, True Essence could not be condensed if the Dao Fruit was shattered.
That was also the reason why Perfected Immortal Jing Yue was so confident that he could suppress the Thunder Emperor.
However, he had not expected that the lightning spear conjured by the Thunder Emperor would contain the power of True Essence as well!
“Fufu,”
The Thunder Emperor smiled with a proud expression and said slowly, “My Dao Fruit was indeed crippled by Tianxing! However, I didn’t waste my time for the past hundreds of thousands of years!”
“Since the Dao Fruit is shattered, I’ll replace it with a sea of lightning!”
The moment he said that, another series of deafening thunderclaps sounded from the firmaments, as though the heavens were enraged and wanted to send down a lightning punishment!
The dark clouds above Absolute Thunder City spun slowly as though they were drawn in by some power, forming a gigantic black cloud vortex!
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled endlessly in the vortex!
At the center of the vortex, the lightning condensed intensified and eventually turned into a gigantic thunderbolt that descended on the Thunder Emperor!
The Thunder Emperor stood in midair and looked up at the firmaments without dodging. He was bathed in lightning and was insufferably arrogant, like a god that controlled thunder!
The Thunder Emperor opened his glabella and revealed his consciousness.
Due to the shattered Dao Fruit, the Thunder Emperor’s consciousness was dilapidated and was even filled with holes.
At that moment, some lightning had already accumulated in those pits.
It could not be considered as a sea of lightning. At best, it could only be considered as a pit of lightning.
However, as time passed by, more and more power of thunder surged into his consciousness and the pits gradually connected, forming a lake of lightning!
Everyone else was merely shocked when they saw that.
However, Su Zimo who obtained the Thunder Emperor’s legacy had a flash of realization.
“Establishment post destruction, creation of the sea of lightning after the Dao Fruit is shattered!”
A few incantations from the Void Thunder Manual surfaced in Su Zimo’s mind.
Those incantations were clearly comprehended by the Thunder Emperor over the past hundreds of thousands of years.
“To think that…”
Su Zimo murmured softly in admiration.
The Thunder Emperor was extremely talented and did not give up after his Dao Fruit was destroyed. Instead, he created a new Dao technique and reconstructed his shattered consciousness, transforming it into a sea of lightning to replace the Dao Fruit!
Now that the Thunder Emperor had broken free and absorbed the lightning, his cultivation and strength were recovering rapidly as well!
As long as he had time, he could definitely return to his peak and might even be stronger than before!
The dark clouds above Absolute Thunder City became thicker and thicker. The light of thunder was dazzling and ordinary cultivators could not look at it directly.
The Thunder Emperor’s aura rose continuously and lightning gathered around him, almost forming an ocean!
The withered yellow hair on the Thunder Emperor’s head fell off before growing back.
His body was also recovering rapidly and his skin regained its luster. His face was rosy and the aura of twilight around him was swept away!
“Jing Yue, didn’t you say that he’s at the end of his lifespan?!”
When Prince Yuan Zuo saw that, he was enraged and a hint of panic finally appeared in his eyes.
“Hahahaha!”
The Thunder Emperor burst into laughter. “A bunch of ignorant juniors. Back when King Tianxing plotted against me, I was already half a step into the Grotto-heaven realm. My lifespan broke free from the shackles of Heaven and Earth and reached a million years, no different from an Immortal King!”
It was only at that moment that Su Zimo knew that the so-called Immortal King was not a cultivation realm, but a title similar to Heaven Immortal or Perfected Immortal.
Black Essence realm, Earth Essence realm, Heaven Essence realm, Perfected One realm.
The Grotto-heaven realm was above the Perfected One realm!
One could only be conferred kingship after entering the Grotto-heaven realm!
Although the Thunder Emperor’s Dao Fruit was crippled by King Tianxing, his lifespan did not decrease because of that.
Now that the Thunder Emperor had escaped, although his strength had yet to recover, the methods he displayed had already exceeded everyone’s expectations!
The skinny old man had already vanished.
In his place in midair was a peerless expert who was handsome and possessed a torrential aura with lightning eyes!
This expert was suppressed for hundreds of thousands of years and tortured.
But now that he was free, the world was shocked!
Most of the Black Immortals in the Ten Absolute Hell were stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do.
If they were embroiled in a battle with an expert of this level, they might not even survive with a body remaining.
The Hunting Meet was not over yet.
Under normal circumstances, no one was allowed to leave without permission.
Otherwise, they would be killed by the Hunting Ranking!
Furthermore, the Ten Absolute Hell was established deep underground. Although many Black Immortals could rise into the air, the height they could reach was limited to 80 to 90 feet.
Therefore, most Black Immortals remained in the Ten Absolute Hell to watch.
Of course, there were also a few people who chose to escape from the Ten Absolute Hell!
Su Zimo was one of them.
The Ten Absolute Hell was a thousand feet beneath the ground. For others, it was difficult to reach. However, it was not difficult for Su Zimo.
He did not use the Roc wings.
There were many people here and he would not expose his trump cards unless he had no other choice.
Releasing Ethereal Wings, Su Zimo rose into the air and flew towards the City Lord’s residence.
Of course, the speed of Ethereal Wings was far inferior compared to the Roc wings.
Right then, Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat as he sensed someone staring at him not far away!
He turned back expressionlessly.
On the other side, a purple figure flew into the air as well with lightning flashing on its body at an astonishing speed!
Tang Ziyi!
At that moment, Tang Ziyi’s aura was clearly much stronger than in the Ten Absolute Hell.
Swoosh!
In the blink of an eye, Tang Ziyi overtook Su Zimo.
As they brushed shoulders, Tang Ziyi’s voice sounded in Su Zimo’s mind, “I wasn’t at my peak strength in the Ten Absolute Hell. Let’s fight again if there’s a chance.”
“Also, I owe you two favors. I’ll definitely return them.”
Su Zimo smiled without saying anything.
He sensed a familiar aura from Tang Ziyi.
If he was not wrong, Tang Ziyi had cultivated the Void Thunder Manual as well.
However, he did not know where she learned it or what it had to do with the Thunder Emperor.
Before long, Su Zimo ascended to the City Lord’s residence and left amidst the chaos. He hid in a corner of Absolute Thunder City and watched the figure in midair.
