Lord Of Martial Arts

At this point, Darren had no time to think anymore.

He immediately assimilated a drop of spiritual energy liquid. His cultivation base soared upon making a breakthrough.

A strong storm rose from within the Killing Abyss. Darren watched silently in his vigil. The forces of heave and earth poured into him all of a sudden.

He had now reached the realm of a half-step emperor.

Now that his cultivation level had improved, he could feel his blade and sword intents going manic with so much power.

An explosion disrupted the whole area.

Thick, dark clouds hovered over the Killing Abyss, while black lightning danced in and out of it.

The sky threatened to collapse under such high pressure.

This was the thunder punishment of Heavenly Repression triggered by a half-step emperor. The sight alone was terrifying!

The force of such thunder punishment was even more powerful than anyone in the Lothlann Continent had seen. This display of strength only matched that that during the ancient times.

No one with Conflicting Cultivation had ever reached the half-step emperor level!

A howl rang through the air.

The first fiend ancestor had already sensed the change in the air. Dread tickled down his spine and he looked slightly alarmed by all these.

He knew he wouldn't be able to withstand the thunder punishment.

The blade and sword intents grew wildly as they fused together under the effect of blade and sword cores. The thunder punishment burst as soon as the first trace of unsuppressed dark gold internal force was generated.

A small bolt of lightning struck down.

Fortunately, the Killing Abyss blocked it from hitting Darren.

More thunder and lightning rained down upon them as the dark gold internal force grew.

The force resulted in a series of explosions.

The barrage of lightning intensified, breaking the Killing Abyss into pieces. Everything else seemed chaotic.

Upon seeing his skill destroyed, the first fiend ancestor began hatching plans to escape. Before he fled, however, he realized that the thunder punishment wasn't coming from the human being. On the contrary, it was targeting the human.

So the first fiend ancestor decided against his initial decision and stayed.

The air cackled menacingly.

A massive thunderstorm began to come down.

Another loud bang exploded.

Darren raised his head. The expression on his face was so cold it could freeze ice itself. The dark gold internal force inside his body swept towards the thunder, wrestling it to submission.

Hanson ha

le out the thunder.

The sky was torn into two. One half was full of black lightning, while the other was a deep red sea of blood. Everyone from the ground watched in horror and awe as the two factions battled each other.

Roars reverberated through the air.

A myriad of blood red spears arranged themselves and thrust towards the depths of the sky.

Blood spurted everywhere, while the black lightning dissipated.

The Shura stood, regal and invincible, between heaven and earth.

"Argh!"

Eventually, everything settled down. The black lightning was gone, so was the sea of blood.

With that, the Shura's body quickly fell down, slamming unto the surface of the earth.

Darren watched in surprised and concern.

The Shura had indeed come to help him overcome the thunder punishment. Even with the strength of the Shura, the thunder punishment had almost killed him. This just showed how terrifying it really was.

"Can he still resist a second wave?"

Darren looked up at the sky. His anxiety was spiking up upon seeing that the tribulation clouds had not yet dispersed. At any time now, a new batch of thunder and lightning would descend upon them.

A few seconds later, the Shura's scorched body shot up from the ground.

His entire body was trembling from the strain.

The scene made Darren feel like he was falling into an abyss. Deep down, he just knew that the Shura wouldn't be able to withstand the next barrage of thunder punishment.

A black spear shaped like lightning fell down from the thick, dark clouds.

It flew at such a slow pace.

But the strength behind it was unmatched. It was a thousand times stronger than the earlier thunder and lightning.
