Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Boom～

A burst of divine light exploded outward, accompanied by a massive roar. Zhao Sheng moved aside the gigantic palm shielding his head and stared at the heavenly vault with eyes sharp as swords.

"Sneaky old guy, show your tricks quickly! I've grown impatient waiting."

As soon as he finished speaking, a disdainful snicker echoed simultaneously from all directions—heaven, earth, and the four points around.

In an instant, the murky water mist that spread across heaven, earth, and all directions surged extensively, promptly solidifying into countless murky fog swords, numbering at least in the millions.

Zhao Sheng's expression became remarkably solemn as the thunderlight around him roared outwards in all directions, transforming swiftly into an intimidating sea of thunder spanning nearly a thousand feet.

At the same time, his aura soared continuously, his strength rising at an unimaginable speed. His body also expanded further, transforming into a thunder giant over three yards high.

Just as the million fog swords were about to launch simultaneously towards him from all directions, Zhao Sheng's cultivation had already neared the Nascent Soul Limit, rendering his combat power incalculable.

"No, such a world-shattering sword path divine ability is almost impossible for an early-stage Divinity Transformation True Monarch to execute. Heavenly Illusion old man is a master of illusion techniques, so surely there are nine fake and one real here. But which attack is real? Not good, I can't see even a trace of flaw!" Zhao Sheng's eyes flickered with countless thoughts flashing momentarily in his mind, causing him to feel a twitch of agitation.

Yet, as countless fog swords flew near like lightning, the mist between heaven and earth thickened increasingly, while the fierce sword intent in the void became increasingly intense, almost like divine might descending upon the world.

At this moment, Zhao Sheng felt as if the surrounding void had transformed into a cage, space seemingly compressed and distorted by an endless sword array.

"No matter, the enemy comes from all directions, I go straight one path! Upward is true, Purple Cloud breaks the tribulation!"

Zhao Sheng let out a fierce shout, abruptly transforming into a hundred-feet thunder sword that soared skyward, and the thunder domain below him violently swirled like a massive "Thunder Fire Meteor" crashing directly toward the heavenly vault.

Boom boom boom!

The hundred-feet thunder sword was unstoppable; the incoming dense fog swords crumbled into large volumes of water mist before they could approach, subsequently being torn and devoured by the blinding thunder.

In just a moment, the fog-filled heavenly vault was pierced by the hundred-feet thunder sword, erupting into a super void spanning hundreds of miles, with massive amounts of water mist evaporating to emptiness.

However, Zhao Sheng was shocked instead of pleased, his mind screaming, "No good, missed the target!"

Before this thought could pass, the dense fog swords below suddenly accelerated by thousands of times, with the dozens of miles between them being bizarrely compressed into a line, the whole process akin to space-time jumping.

These murky fog swords seemed to defy time and space, slicing towards Zhao Sheng's back instantaneously, while his surrounding thunder domain was simultaneously suppressed by a stronger primordial spirit domain, allowing the fog swords to easily sever the thunder and directly slash Zhao Sheng's flesh.

Bam bam bam!

The next second, an astonishing scene unfolded. As the fog swords cut into the thunder giant's body, it was akin to striking gold and iron, resulting in a dense series of explosive sounds akin to torrential rain.

Nonetheless, extremely eerie strands of water element magic power surged into Zhao Sheng's four limbs and body through his pores, attempting to assimilate the blood and any liquids within him, aiming to turn him into a puppet at anyone's command.

Too bad, old Kor Kun underestimated a monster with eight lifetimes of accumulation.

In a sense, Zhao Sheng's understanding of the water element was entirely on par with or even surpassed his adversary's.

Boom...

A burst of thunderlight a thousand times brighter than the sun erupted from Zhao Sheng's body, instantly dispelling the invading primordial spirit power, annihilating the surrounding fog swords entirely.

From afar, it seemed as though an enormous blinding "Sun" appeared in the sky.

Soon afterward, the "Sun's" magnificence gradually converged, as water mist surged fiercely across heaven and earth, transforming into endless cloud mist, obscuring the sky from sight.

Zhao Sheng stood suspended in the air, with the thunder domain beneath him condensed to a hundred-foot range, not radiating thousands upon thousands of purple thunder rays, exuding a thick air of destruction.

The current situation was extremely unfavorable for him; the timing and location were all against him, aligned in the enemy's favor!

Even more disadvantageous was that Kor Kun, as a Divinity Transformation True Monarch, lacked any true monarch dignity, being as cowardly as a mice, perfectly embodying shamelessness at its extreme.

Faced with such an unscrupulous old scoundrel, Zhao Sheng had numerous divine skills but nowhere to deploy them; it was almost impossible to tackle this person.

Unless...

With a flicker of thought, a yellow gourd abruptly flew from his body, landing in his hand.

Zhao Sheng casually slapped the body of the gourd, seeing the gourd mouth crackle with electric light, suddenly spewing a pupil-sized glass bead, entirely purple and saturated with destruction aura.

"Purple Cloud Divine Thunder, go!"

With a low shout, the "glass bead" spun in a twirl, then instantly vanished into thin air.

In the next moment, a dazzling burst of thunderlight erupted from within the clouds and fog hundreds of miles away, subsequently devoured by massive purple thunder, leaving a spherical void of three hundred feet diameter at the original spot.

Zhao Sheng turned his head for a glance, showing no delight on his face. Because the Purple Cloud Divine Thunder just hit, but merely destroyed a water vapor avatar, the true body remained hidden somewhere unknown.

With Kor Kun's Divine Skill of Illusion Technique, he could conjure endless identical water vapor avatars anywhere anytime. The Purple Cloud Divine Thunder could scarcely strike the true body.
