Chapter 208: Chapter 110: Thunder Department True Dragon

The Red Evil True Demon was incandescent with rage. A bolt of Taixiao True Thunder had descended from the heavens with terrifying speed, slamming it deep into the ground. A scorched mark was seared across its back, and even its fur had been carbonized by the True Thunder.

Its once-unstoppable, overwhelming Demon Flame faltered.

It leaped furiously from the crater, baring a mouth full of fangs. Its eyes shot beams of mesmerizing demonic light straight at Yang Jing.

With a mere thought from Yang Jing, flashes of lightning descended from the sky, striking the two beams of demonic light.

He chanted aloud:

“All Celestial Thunders God, who illuminates the cosmos! Divine Dragon, guard and protect! Mountains and peaks, crumble before me! Evil Gods and vile demons who dare reveal themselves, Lei Gong shall strike you down and shatter your forms! As swift as the statutes and ordinances command!”

The thunder in the sky erupted, transforming into an incredibly detailed and lifelike Thunder Dragon.

The Thunder Dragon circled once in the sky, absorbing the celestial Taixiao True Thunder into its body before letting out a long, resonant roar.

The next instant, the Thunder Dragon descended from the heavens, plummeting toward the Red Evil True Demon on the ground.

Its two incomparably sharp claws, crackling with terrifying True Thunder, lunged for the Red Evil True Demon.

Carried by its downward momentum, the Red Evil True Demon could do nothing but cross its arms in front of it to block.

“BOOM!”

The Red Evil True Demon’s feet sank deep into the earth, and its arms were seared with deep, scorched wounds.

The next moment, the Thunder Dragon seized the Red Evil True Demon, dragged it into the air, and slammed it hard against the Five Mountains Spirit Suppression Array of the Wei Clan Territory.

A barrier of Spiritual Light, faintly shimmering with the true forms of five sacred mountains, rose to block the two colossal beasts.

The Red Evil True Demon was pinned directly against the light barrier. The Thunder Dragon opened its great maw and spat a bolt of Taixiao True Thunder, blasting the demon’s head.

The Five Mountains Spirit Suppression Array had already sustained considerable damage when the Red Evil True Demon forced its way out from within, and now it began to tremble.

The Demon Cultivators inside the Wei Clan Territory stared, dumbfounded, watching the True Demon and the Thunder Dragon outside the Array in terror.

The Power of both combatants had reached the Golden Core Level.

They had assumed that once the Red Evil True Demon was summoned, victory would be in their grasp. Their biggest problem was supposed to be figuring out how to persuade the irritable Celestial Demon to return to the Outer Realm.

They never expected Yang Jing’s mastery of the Taixiao Thunder Technique to be so profound.

“The Flying Dragon Spell! How is that possible! How could a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator like Yang Jing actually summon the Spiritual Charm of a Thunder Department True Dragon just by reciting the Flying Dragon Spell!”

Wei Dong shrieked hysterically.

In the distance, Wei Ying was also deeply shaken.

“Wei Minister, what is this Daoist Technique?”

Zhonglan Cha’s heart pounded in terror as she watched the incomparably ferocious Thunder Dragon dominate the Red Evil True Demon in close-quarters combat.

“That is the Flying Dragon Spell, part of the Taixiao True Thunder Technique. The Upper Realm Nine Heavens Thunder God has numerous Thunder God Generals and General Envoys under his command. In the past, the Celestial Thunder Technique was used to summon these generals and envoys to destroy one’s enemies, much like how we Demon Cultivators perform Demon Summoning. The difference is that when our Demon Sect summons demons, the most important thing is to prepare a blood sacrifice for the Celestial Demon to feast upon. But for Righteous Cultivators who use the Thunder Summoning Technique, lineage is paramount. If you don’t come from one of the Major Sects, the generals and envoys of the Thunder Division won’t give you the time of day.”

Wei Ying looked toward Yang Jing with uncertainty.

“After the Central Continent fell and transformed into the Nine Heavens World, the Spiritual Charm of the Thunder God and his generals and envoys lingered in the Nine Heavens. However, trying to call them down using the Thunder Summoning Technique is nigh impossible.”

He said, his voice laced with suspicion,

“For Yang Jing’s mastery of Thunder Techniques to be this terrifying… could he possess some kind of Dao Body?”

“Then doesn’t that mean Yang Jing is certain to win?”

Zhonglan Cha couldn’t even imagine which Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Four Demon Sects could possibly be his match.

Wei Ying shook his head hesitantly.

“Not necessarily. Right now, it’s a fifty-fifty chance at best. That Thunder Dragon is ultimately just a wisp of Spiritual Charm left behind in Taixiao Heaven by an Upper Realm True Dragon. It’s like water without a source; every bit of Taixiao True Thunder it uses is gone forever. It can suppress the Red Evil True Demon for now, but once the Thunder Dragon’s power is exhausted, the tables will turn.”

“Yang Jing’s only chance of victory is to break through the Wei Family’s Five Mountains Spirit Suppression Array and destroy the Red Evil True Demon Array within it before the Thunder Dragon’s power wanes. Then, he must use the Power of Heaven and Earth’s Membrane to banish the Red Evil True Demon back to the Outer Realm.”

Inside the Five Mountains Spirit Suppression Array, Wei Dong and Bian Shiyin had also realized this. Wei Dong was filled with regret, cursing himself for acting too quickly when killing the Wei Family disciples. Now, they couldn’t even find anyone to operate the Five Mountains Spirit Suppression Array.

The Array could only operate autonomously, unable to exert its full defensive Power.

Let alone actively directing the Array to assist the Red Evil True Demon.

As its Taixiao True Thunder was consumed, the Thunder Dragon could no longer overpower the Red Evil True Demon as it had before. It could only rely on its refined techniques to keep the True Demon suppressed.

The Red Evil True Demon was a miserable sight. One of its eyes had been gouged out, and its body was covered in blackened claw marks, some of which were deep enough to expose bone.

“BOOM!”

The enraged Red Evil True Demon threw a backhand punch, smashing it into the Thunder Dragon’s head and sending the dragon’s body lurching upward.

The Thunder Dragon whipped around, its long tail lashing the Red Evil True Demon. The True Demon was sent flying, slamming hard into the light barrier of the Five Mountains Spirit Suppression Array.

The dragon and the demon were once again locked in a tangled brawl.

Yang Jing looked up at the sky. The Taixiao True Thunder was nearly gone; the True Thunder for hundreds of miles around had been almost completely consumed.

“Iron Head, do you want to go up there and fight the Red Evil True Demon?”

Iron Head had been in a trance, absorbing the true essence of combat from the Thunder Dragon’s every move. Hearing his master’s words, he turned his head in shock, a “What? Me, fight the Red Evil True Demon?” look on his face.

“Of course I wouldn’t send you to your death for no reason.”

Yang Jing said, holding his Peach Wood Sword and beginning to chant:

“Celestial Spirit Fire Bell, Six Jia and Six Ding! With the Flying Heaven Drum, swiftly raise the ominous clouds! Let thunder strike with illuminating brilliance! As swift as the statutes and ordinances command!”

The next moment, the ominous clouds in the sky vanished. The Thunder Dragon, locked in combat with the Red Evil True Demon, let out a final cry and dissipated into purple Taixiao True Thunder, returning to the heavens.

Caught off guard, the Red Evil True Demon overextended itself and went tumbling across the ground.

“Yang Jing’s out of Magical Power!”

Bian Shiyin let out a long sigh of relief and laughed smugly. Although Wei Dong chuckled in agreement, his laughter was strained. ’Summoning thunder from an altar borrows True Thunder from above the Nine Heavens; it doesn’t consume much Magical Power. Regardless, for Yang Jing to suddenly withdraw the Taixiao Thunder Technique is incredibly foolish. Does he really think he can defeat the Red Evil True Demon without borrowing the might of the heavens?’

“A True Dragon’s Spiritual Charm is not easily nurtured. If it had been defeated by the Red Evil True Demon, it would have been severely damaged. Besides, that Red Evil True Demon’s momentum is already fading. This is the perfect opportunity for you, Iron Head, to borrow the might of a Thunder God General and get some practice against it.”

Yang Jing said.

The next moment, bolts of ink-black Great Cave True Thunder descended from the sky, striking Iron Head’s body in their entirety.
