Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 221 221

?

A giant centipede flies up into the sky with Tenku above its head. Tenku's face became solemn as he sensed that the strength of each of the guardian beasts was at least a seventh-level monster or above. He had to be careful when fighting them. What's more, Tenku wasn't fighting at his best right now.

After that, they split up because Tenku intends to fight his opponent separately. If the four guardian beasts were to fight together, then the power they could put out would be many times that. He found it out after reading an old book in the Wang family residence.

Tenku changed his Phantasmal Object form into a greatsword and shot toward the White Tiger and Black Tortoise while the giant centipede faced the Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird.

ROAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

The Azure Dragon roared when it saw a gigantic centipede over forty meters long approaching them. The Vermilion Bird flapped its wings, loudly cried, and charged first. The giant centipede looked at the Vermilion Bird and swung one of its scythe-like legs.

Slash!

A sword Qi rushed towards the Vermilion Bird and cut off one of its wings. What the giant centipede released was one of the moves of the Thousand Weapon Emperor Technique. Tenku has allowed the creature to use some of his abilities in the battle.

The Vermilion Bird cried but felt no pain because it wasn't a real entity with a body.

ROOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

After seeing the Vermilion Bird lose one of its wings, the Azure Dragon flew toward the giant centipede.

The giant centipede realized that the Azure Dragon was approaching at high speed. Then the creature charged toward its opponent, and the two collided in the sky.

Booooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

The impact of their clash created a tremendous shockwave that ravaged Mount Fuji like a mighty storm.

On the other hand, the battle between Tenku against White Tiger and Black Tortoise has also started. The two creatures attacked him fiercely, and Tenku felt overwhelmed by them. Then his face darkened as he could sense the great killing intent of the two beasts. Tenku knew it didn't come from them but from the sky's wrath because of his previous words.

"Argh!" Tenku frowned because he felt that his body was screaming in pain. He forced himself to do a lot of extreme movements in his heavily injured state. Tenku didn't prepare potions or elixirs in his space pocket because Wang Haotian prevented him from using them when facing the thunder tribulation.

Tenku regretted listening to the old man's words too much and not taking any potions with him. So he could only rely on the self-healing ability of his physique after practicing the Tyrant King Body Tempering Art. Unfortunately, Tenku can't cure the effects of losing too much blood. Because of that, he fought the guardian beast with a weak state and blurred vision.

"Damn! I must kill the four beasts and complete my tribulation before losing consciousness!" Tenku bit his lip and tried to keep his eyes open. If he lost consciousness in the middle of battle, he would die.

"I have to eliminate the four guardian beasts in one strike." Tenku looked at the two beasts in front of him seriously, then turned his eyes towards the giant centipede.

Even though the four guardian beasts weren't true entities, their strength was not to be underestimated. The speed of the White Tiger was extraordinary, and the Black Tortoise had a very strong defense. It did not come from an extremely hard physical shell but an extremely thick condensation of black lightning.

Clank!

Tenku's hand went numb when his Phantasmal Object clashed with the shell of the Black Tortoise. The beast was made of black lightning; attacking it directly would also have side effects on Tenku. It differed from the giant centipede that could attack the Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird without thinking about it.

In addition, Tenku felt excruciating pain all over his body every time he moved because his wound was far from healed. In other words, he was fighting the two guardian beasts in a worse condition.

"The only way to defeat the four guardian beasts is to attack them from a distance with my strongest technique! But how do I do it? I don't have much strength left in my body." Tenku narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice. He had run out of strength to deal with the eight strikes of his thunder tribulation. Tenku only has a small amount of Qi and Genesis power left in his body now.

"Can I do that?" Tenku raised his eyebrows after thinking of an idea. Even though it was quite crazy, he didn't have much choice. He had little time to think of a better, safer idea. Therefore, Tenku gambled on his decision. He compressed the Qi in his Phantasmal Object and swung it toward the White Tiger.

Thousands of Slashes!

Tenku showered the beast with the sword Qi. Even though Tenku knew that it would not affect the White Tiger, his aim was not to injure it but to draw its attention to him.

ROAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR!

The White Tiger roared and opened its mouth towards Tenku. Then the beast shot black lightning at him. On the other hand, Black Tortoise also did the same. The two guardian beasts attacked Tenku simultaneously.

Clap!

The two bolts of black lightning appeared before Tenku in the blink of an eye as the two attacks leaped through space. Tenku wasn't surprised when he saw that because thunder is one of the elements with devastating power and terrible speed compared to the others.

Instead, he smiled when he saw that because his plan had succeeded. He purposely lured the two guardian beasts to attack him from a distance because he knew their only attack was black lightning.

Tenku wouldn't have gone with that plan if both were real entities with bodies. He dared to do so because he knew the beasts' attacks were nothing but black lightning. So what's left is whether Tenku's body can survive to execute the next step.

"I hope I won't die!" Tenku gritted his teeth and swung the Devourer Scythe horizontally at the two black lightning bolts.

"Swallow it!" Tenku said, and a giant jaw of condensing Genesis power appeared before him and devoured the attacks of the two guardian beasts.

"Aaaaargrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhh!" Tenku's scream echoed through the sky, and her voice looked like she was in great pain. His body was covered in black lightning as he tried to absorb it and turn it into a source of energy.

Tenku didn't think the black lightning was an unknown energy source, and the conversion process was painful. He felt his body being electrocuted by a hundred million volts. It was many times more powerful than the eight strokes of his tribulation.

Due to his reckless actions, his injuries became even more severe to both his outer body and internal organs. But Tenku didn't care and instead continued because he felt he could turn the black lightning into energy for him.

Tenku continued to move away from the two beasts while enduring the pain. Not long after, the black lightning on his body dissipated and was converted into Qi and Genesis power.

"I did it! I can transform that unknown energy source into Qi and Genesis power! I can even feel the characteristics of that black lightning mixed with the profound Qi Core and energy source within my body. In other words, my attacks could have the same destructive power and speed as the four guardian beasts. This way, I have enough strength to fight against them even though my body's condition worsens." Tenku said excitedly and confidently.

After that, he started attacking the two beasts while continuously moving through the air, using his Qi as a foothold.

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRR!

The White Tiger roared angrily as its opponent kept running away from it. Tenku ignored that and continued moving toward the battle's location between the giant centipede, Azure Dragon, and Vermilion Bird. He also occasionally attacked the Black Tortoise and the White Tiger to enrage the two guardian beasts to chase after him.

When Tenku felt close enough to the battle scene, he suddenly increased speed and appeared near the giant centipede. Then he suddenly swung his Phantasmal Object at the Azure Dragon, and that strike was enough to sever the beast's tail.

Sword of Demolition!

White Tiger and Black Tortoise appeared before Azure Dragon and shot black lightning to block the slash.

Booooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

The Vermilion Bird appeared shortly after, and its wings had recovered. It was formed from the condensation of black lightning and could regenerate as much as it wanted as long as it had energy.

"That's good. The four beasts had gathered in one place! Now is the time to take the next step." Tenku and the giant centipede shot toward their opponents.

Azure Dragon and the other three also came to Tenku simultaneously, intending to synchronize their energies. If the Four beasts managed to do so, their strength would be multiplied.

Of course, Tenku wouldn't let them do that. He gathered the four guardian beasts in one place not to make them stronger but to annihilate them all at once. Tenku suddenly separated from the giant centipede and moved away from the Azure Dragon and the three creatures.

Meanwhile, the giant centipede shot toward the Azure Dragon. It didn't attack but entwined the beast with its body. Afterward, the giant centipede did the same to the other three guardian beasts and gathered them in one place.

White Tiger and the other three tried to break free, but what they did was useless because the giant centipede's coils were so strong. The strength of the four guardian beasts suddenly increased as their synchronization was almost complete, but it was already too late.

Tenku compressed all the Qi and Genesis power within his body into his Phantasmal Object. He also did not forget to inject his sword intent.

"It is time to end this thunder tribulation!" Tenku said seriously, and the weapon in his hand vibrated violently. He held his Phantasmal Object tighter and slashed at the four guardian beasts.

"Die!" Tenku roared, unleashing all his strength in that attack.

Emperor Slash!

A gigantic Sword Qi shot out vertically at terrifying speed toward the four guardian beasts and engulfed them with the giant centipede. The attack continued to shoot without losing its destructive power and split the dark clouds in the sky in half.
