Chapter 302: Chapter 301: Celestial Thunder Divine Pearl

The Thunder God Rune Talisman’s power was decent, but against Yi Tianyun’s heaven-defying Defense Power, its effect was negligible.

Thundercloud, who had been sent flying, sprang up from the ground, clutching his chest. He was seriously injured by Yi Tianyun’s punch. Most importantly, his own power had no effect on Yi Tianyun whatsoever. This heaven-defying strength left him feeling powerless.

"I won’t bother telling you to surrender obediently. I’ll just beat you until you do," Yi Tianyun said, closing in step by step. ’I was going to use Instant Teleportation to ambush Thundercloud, but with so many people watching, I’ll hold off for now.’

"I can’t possibly lose!" freewёbnoνel.com

Sensing the impending danger, Thundercloud let out a furious roar. The Thunder Divine Patterns on his body flared violently, and dense arcs of lightning crackled across his skin. A few bolts even shot out from his body, striking the ground and nearby giant trees, charring them black on impact.

The very ground he stood on was blasted black by the Power of thunder and lightning as his Combat Power skyrocketed. But to Yi Tianyun, this was utterly meaningless.

"Descent of the Thunder God!"

Thundercloud clenched his fists. CRACKLE! A bolt of Divine Thunder descended from the sky and struck him, instantly multiplying his power several times over! His Combat Power shot past ten million, a terrifying force that made one’s heart tremble. Simply activating his Divine Runes was shocking enough, but after executing a Divine Technique and gaining the blessing of the Power of Heaven and Earth, his Combat Power surged violently upward!

The next moment, a long spear materialized in his hand, and without a moment’s hesitation, he charged toward Yi Tianyun.

"Thunder Dragon Flash!"

A roar echoed!

A phantom Thunder Dragon coalesced from the Power of thunder and lightning emanating from his body. Thundercloud himself seemed to transform into a colossal Thunder Dragon, hurtling forward with a roar. The long spear in his hand became like the maw of the Giant Dragon, snapping down to bite!

It all happened too fast. The Power of thunder and lightning inherently enhanced speed, making it impossible for the onlookers to track Thundercloud’s movements. In an instant, he was right in front of Yi Tianyun.

"Die!"

Thundercloud’s eyes blazed with the Power of thunder and lightning. Gripping his long spear tightly, he aimed for Yi Tianyun’s chest and thrust viciously. The tip of the spear radiated with ultimate killing intent, like a bolt of Divine Thunder!

Yi Tianyun remained motionless, simply standing there and watching the spear come at him. The instant the domineering spear was about to pierce him, he reached out and seized it. All the lightning crackling along the spear vanished in a flash, reverting it to a normal, high-grade Soul Artifact. Even the Power of thunder and lightning from Thundercloud’s own body began to surge out, flowing ceaselessly into Yi Tianyun as he absorbed it.

"Wha—How can this be..." Thundercloud was utterly shocked. His attack had no effect at all. And the Power of thunder and lightning... it had just vanished!

’No, it didn’t just disappear,’ Thundercloud thought. ’It was absorbed! Yi Tianyun absorbed it into his body!’ He had seen it clearly. When Yi Tianyun grabbed his spear, the Power of thunder and lightning on it had surged out as if it had found an outlet, but it hadn’t caused Yi Tianyun even the slightest bit of harm!

"Get over here!"

Yi Tianyun yanked the spear, pulling Thundercloud with it, and slammed him into the ground. THUD! The impact carved a large crater in the earth. He then wrenched the spear free and flung it to the side. It spun several times before embedding itself deep into a giant tree, with only half the shaft left exposed, a testament to its astonishing sharpness.

"Alright, just stay put!" Yi Tianyun reached down to grab and restrain him.

"Get away!"

Thundercloud roared as the Thunder Divine Patterns on his body suddenly detonated. A frenzied Power of thunder and lightning, seemingly stored for a very long time, erupted all at once. A sky-piercing bolt of Divine Thunder shot toward Yi Tianyun, its power several degrees stronger than before!

"Hurry, get out of the way! That’s the Power of thunder and lightning he’s been storing for a long time!" Ye Qingxuan cried out anxiously.

Aside from enhancing his strength, Thundercloud’s Thunder Divine Patterns could also store violent Power of thunder and lightning. His physique was so extraordinary that it would sometimes uncontrollably discharge astonishing amounts of lightning. That was why he needed the Thunder Divine Patterns: to suppress this energy and store it within the runes.

Releasing it all at once when his life was in danger made it easy for him to battle those above his level! The current attack was the best proof of this. Its might instantly shot to a Combat Power of sixteen million. Who knew how long he had been storing that energy to unleash such an astonishing attack.

A bolt of lightning pierced the air and slammed directly into Yi Tianyun. A shroud of Thunder Light enveloped his body, so dazzling it forced everyone to shut their eyes. Many of the onlookers were stunned. A savage grin spread across Thundercloud’s face, certain that he had succeeded and electrocuted Yi Tianyun to death.

"Tianyun!" Ye Qingxuan bit her lip and lunged toward Yi Tianyun without a moment’s hesitation, completely disregarding the terrifying lightning.

"Holy Daughter, don’t go over there!" The others rushed to stop her, but Ye Qingxuan was too fast; they couldn’t block her path at all.

But by the time Ye Qingxuan reached him, the Thunder Light had already vanished, and she ended up falling right into Yi Tianyun’s arms.

"Relax. You think this pathetic lightning can hurt me?" Yi Tianyun said, holding Ye Qingxuan with a faint smile. In his other hand, he held a Treasure Pearl that flickered with Thunder Light.

All of the lightning from the attack had been absorbed by this one Treasure Pearl. This was the Celestial Thunder Divine Pearl he had obtained from killing the old ancestor of the Divine Rune Mansion. The pearl’s most amazing property was its ability to absorb the Power of thunder and lightning! As long as the lightning’s power wasn’t overwhelmingly strong, it would absorb as much as it was hit with, taking it all in without exception.

The energy stored within the Celestial Thunder Divine Pearl could be used not only for cultivation but also to defend against enemies. During Thundercloud’s last attack, he had quickly taken out the Celestial Thunder Divine Pearl and absorbed every last bit of the lightning’s power, leaving nothing behind.

So, that seemingly terrifying blast of lightning hadn’t even come close to harming him. It had all been absorbed and stored within the Celestial Thunder Divine Pearl without any issue whatsoever.

"Wha—What in the world is that!?" Thundercloud was horrified when he saw the Celestial Thunder Divine Pearl in Yi Tianyun’s hand. He had released such a potent blast of lightning, yet all of it had been absorbed.

"It’s nothing special. Just something that happens to counter you. I just happen to have it on me. Of course, even if I didn’t, it wouldn’t matter. This pathetic lightning has no effect on me anyway." Yi Tianyun wasn’t afraid of the Celestial Thunder, of course, but he wasn’t about to waste such potent Power of thunder and lightning. It was better to absorb it all!
