Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

Chapter 229: A Lack of Martial Morality

"What an overestimation of their abilities..."

Lei Pao leaned against the cannon barrel and shook his head. Instantly, the Heavenly Venerable of Universal Thunder and Lightning appeared in front of him and caught Sun Zhantian's fist with one hand.

"Girl, you don't need to face an enemy you can't defeat..."

"Enough with the nonsense! Zhou Yu, do me a favor!"

Inside the Hidden Dragon Temple, Zhou Yu, in his guardian spirit form, shook his head, "They're really courting death..."

As he broke the seal on Sun Zhantian's Divine Thunder Seal, a powerful force surged out from the seal, and a burst of intense lightning erupted from Sun Zhantian's body.

"Heh, this seems to be getting interesting!"

Lei Pao leaned against the cannon barrel with his arms crossed, staring at Sun Zhantian with great interest.

As the lightning dissipated, Sun Zhantian's hands and feet were covered in lightning, with lightning ribbons fluttering behind him, and three lightning horns growing from the left, right, and middle of his head.

This is Sun Zhantian's Martial God form—Thunder Emperor!

Faced with such an enemy, the Heavenly Venerable of Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder and Spreading Transformation did not take it lightly and directly stepped into his battle intent form.

After exhaling, Sun Zhantian transformed into a bolt of lightning and instantly appeared before the Heavenly Venerable of Universal Thunderclap in the Nine Heavens. He extended his right hand, and five lightning beads shot out.

"Five Dragons Playing with a Pearl!"

The five thunder pearls did not shoot at the Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable, but instead bypassed him, transforming into five thunder dragons that roared and surrounded the thunder cannon.

"Haha, so you're thinking of killing me?"

Lei Pao raised the cannon and fired a shot into the ground. Using the force, he retreated while the arms of the Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder and Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable broke off and transformed into lightning, instantly appearing beside Lei Pao.

"Double Heavenly Arms!"

Lightning transformed into two enormous arms that appeared beside Lei Pao. "Try this move, Mountain-Splitting Combo!"

With a rapid swing of his two arms, he instantly dispersed the five lightning dragons...

"You gave him your arm, so what are you going to do with it?"

Just as the Heavenly Venerable of Universal Thunder and Lightning of the Nine Heavens turned around, Sun Zhantian punched him in the face, sending him flying to the ground by the immense force.

The two heavenly arms beside Lei Pao transformed back into the arms of the Heavenly Venerable of Universal Transformation of Thunder and Lightning in the Nine Heavens.

"Girl, your strength is not bad, but judging from your appearance, I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand this power for long, will you?"

"Taking you down is more than enough!"

A powerful surge of lightning erupted from behind Sun Zhantian, and the figures of Sun Ce, Gan Ning, Taishi Ci, Huang Gai, and Zhou Tai appeared behind her.

Immediately afterwards, they transformed into five longswords gleaming with lightning.

Five lightning-infused longswords combined behind Sun Zhantian to form the "Wings of the Valkyrie," making Sun Zhantian's aura even stronger.

Seeing this, Lei Pao couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Hahaha, your aura is much stronger than that Ice Child's..."

Liu Yuchan was deeply hurt by this, as the battlefield was no longer something he, with his Martial God Body, could get involved in.

Liu Yuchan sighed and asked Xiang Kunlun, who was resting beside him, "Brother, do you think Sun Zhantian can beat that guy?"

"What, you're not convinced?"

Xiang Kunlun glanced at Liu Yuchan, "Sun Zhantian's Martial God transformation is indeed stronger than yours, but it will probably be very difficult for her to defeat that guy..."

On the other side, Li Moxuan fought Huangfu Longdou again. Relying on his skill of wielding a halberd in one hand and controlling a sword in the other, Li Moxuan forcefully suppressed Huangfu Longdou.

However, the price of doing so was that spiritual energy was consumed very quickly. Although Huangfu Longdou had some injuries, they were all superficial wounds.

Huangfu Longdou seized the opportunity, bending down to dodge the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword while crawling under the halberd shaft. His arm blade drew a black arc in the air, heading straight for Li Moxuan's face.

Li Moxuan had no choice but to abandon his sword control and use both hands to raise the halberd shaft to block. With a crisp sound as the halberd struck the blade of his arm, Huangfu Longdou used the force to perform a backflip and land steadily.

The instant he landed, he stomped his foot and lunged at Li Moxuan again, his arm blade in front of him, his whole body like a cannonball fired from a gun.

Suddenly, a red-tasseled spear plunged into the battlefield, sweeping straight towards the direction Huangfu Longdou was advancing.

Huangfu Longdou could only stop and dodge, but his excessive speed still caused the red-tasseled spear to cut a long gash in his chest, and blood flowed down the wound.

He looked up and saw drops of crimson blood dripping from the tip of Bai Shui'er's Crimson Flame Tassel Spear...

Bai Shui'er ran to Li Moxuan's side with her gun, examining his injuries. "Brother Moxuan, are you alright?"

Li Moxuan waved his hand and let out a long breath, "Don't worry, I'm fine!"

"Girl, you truly haven't disappointed me..."

Sensing the abundant spiritual power emanating from Bai Shui'er, Huangfu Longdou sighed inwardly.

Bai Shui'er frowned, scrutinizing Huangfu Longdou. "What do you mean by that? Have we met before?"

"Shui'er, the one who summoned the talisman for you back then was actually him in disguise..."

Upon hearing Li Moxuan's reminder, Bai Shui'er immediately remembered. Looking at Huangfu Longdou, she pursed her lips and raised the Crimson Flame Tassel Spear.

"I'm very grateful that you saved me back then, but I'm sorry, you're blocking my brother Mo Xuan's way!"

"Girl, don't take it too seriously!"

Ignoring his injuries, Huangfu Longdou raised his fists and said, "Let me see how strong that little girl who couldn't even beat a small lizard is now!"

"Then you'll just have to watch!"

Bai Shui'er stepped forward with her spear, the tip trembling as three points of cold light pierced Huangfu Longdou's throat, heart, and abdomen with lightning speed.

Huangfu Longdou did not retreat. He parried outward with his left arm, the blade of his arm clashing with the shaft of the spear, sending sparks flying.

Bai Shui'er swept the spear horizontally, and Huangfu Longdou lowered his head. The wind from the spear swept over his head, and a few strands of hair fell down.

Huangfu Longdou seized the opportunity and suddenly thrust his right arm forward, the blade slicing along the gun shaft towards Bai Shui'er's fingers holding the gun.

Bai Shui'er frowned, and as she released her grip, the butt of the spear flicked upwards, the tip grazing Huangfu Longdou's cheek and leaving a bloody mark.

Just as Huangfu Longdou was preparing to counterattack, he saw Li Moxuan holding the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword in his right hand and a bead emitting a faint purple light in his left.

That is... the Void Divine Pearl?

Huangfu Longdou dared not be careless. Taking advantage of the fact that Li Moxuan had not yet activated the Void Divine Pearl, he retreated with a few somersaults while covering his vital points with Xing Tian Dou Qi.

"The Nine Heavens Above - A Soaring Dragon Startles the Palace!"

The surrounding space and time froze instantly. Li Moxuan swiftly unleashed nine swords, the nine sword energies merging into one, accompanied by the illusory image of a flaming dragon, slashing towards Huangfu Longdou.

Suddenly, time resumed. Huangfu Longdou noticed the sword energy that was right in front of him and hurriedly pulled away to dodge, but his right arm was still severed.

Despite the pain from his severed arm, Huangfu Longdou gritted his teeth and said, "Kid, this alone isn't enough to kill me!"

"It's truly impressive that you were able to dodge that attack!"

Li Moxuan's lips curled up slightly, "However, my target isn't just you..."

Not far behind Huangfu Longdou, Lei Pao's mask slowly shattered. Realizing what had happened, Lei Pao's power gradually dissipated, and he gritted his teeth, leaving behind a single sentence.

"Boy, you have no sportsmanship..."

Chapter 230: The Great Sage of the Water Ape

Unlike Li Moxuan's side, the battle on the other side was extremely fierce, even turning the entire ground upside down.

A powerful golden light shot out from Yang Jian's third eye, and Xing Tian raised his left-hand square shield to block it with all his might.

"Hahaha, take this from my old Sun!"

Sun Wukong's Ruyi Jingu Bang grew longer in the wind, transforming into a towering pillar in the blink of an eye, and crashed down on Xing Tian. Xing Tian did not dodge, but instead raised his axe to block it.

boom--

A deafening explosion erupted, and the shockwave swept in all directions...

"They didn't even know their limits when they attacked..."

The True Martial Emperor raised his hand, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, and the shockwave that had been sweeping outwards instantly dissipated.

"Senior, aren't you going up there to have some fun?"

Yuan Xichen tentatively asked, fearing that something unexpected might happen since Huangfu Longdou and Xing Tian had dragged on for too long...

If the True Martial Emperor is willing to take action, either Xing Tian or Huangfu Long will fall, and the remaining one will be easier to deal with!

The True Martial Emperor shook his head, "I'm too old to fight anymore, so I won't steal the limelight from these younger generations..."

Yuan Xichen was speechless. You just wiped out Yu Shi with a wave of your hand. How could you be so weak that you couldn't be defeated?

"What, you think they can't beat this Huangfu Longdou?"

"Senior, I...I'm just worried..."

The True Martial Emperor chuckled softly, "Junior, don't worry, nothing will happen!"

If someone else had said this, Yuan Xichen might have scoffed, but since it was the True Martial Emperor who spoke, implying that he had the backing, he could rest assured.

At this moment, Xing Tian's legs had sunk into the ground, knee-deep into the rocks, but he remained motionless, his axe and shield firmly holding off Sun Wukong's golden cudgel.

Is this all you've got?

As soon as he finished speaking, a chill ran through him. Nezha, riding on his Wind Fire Wheels, appeared behind Xing Tian without him noticing.

"Try this move of mine!"

Nezha swung his Fire-Tipped Spear straight at Xing Tian's back, the tip of the spear wreathed in blazing Samadhi Fire, breaking through the protective fighting aura behind Xing Tian's back.

puff--

The spear tip pierced three inches into flesh. Xing Tian swung his axe backhand, and Nezha, riding on his Wind Fire Wheels, quickly retreated, the axe wind grazing his chest and leaving a bloody mark.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but chuckle, "Third Prince, your reaction is much slower than mine!"

"You stinky monkey, don't be so smug! Three heads and eight arms, open!"

The Samadhi True Fire that Nezha was originally radiant with golden light and righteous aura suddenly deepened in color, turning into a dark red lotus karmic fire as red as blood.

The Fire-Tipped Spear, Universe Ring, Hunyuan Silk, Golden Brick, and Yin-Yang Sword held in the six arms were reforged by karmic fire, becoming even more ferocious and entwined with ominous dark red blood light.

His newly grown arms held the Severing Karma Soul-Slaying Blade in one arm and the Annihilation Asura Halberd in the other, and his whole body exuded a chilling killing intent.
