Free Web NovelChapter 97: Chapter 92: Gang Energy Level 6! The Thunder and Lightning Dharma King
This was absolutely terrifying!
As the news and rumors spread, all of South City was thrown into an uproar.
And with that news, Chen Xuan’s name once again echoed throughout South City, becoming known to all.
This was especially true for Han Zhenshan.
When he learned that Chen Xuan had single-handedly annihilated the entire Shangguan Castle, his face was a mask of shock. His eyes went wide, and he wondered if he was hearing things.
’Have I gotten so old that my ears are starting to fail me?’
However, after confirming the news repeatedly, he was utterly aghast.
Shangguan Castle was truly gone!
And in less than an hour!
It was simply horrifying!
"Foreign Affairs Envoy Chen went in alone and killed Shangguan Castle Master Shangguan Ao in just a few moves. Then two Cat Demons appeared from inside, trying to ambush him, but he killed them one after the other as well..."
The messenger reported swiftly.
"A monster... a true, peerless monster..."
Han Zhenshan’s mind reeled as he murmured to himself. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
He finally understood why Chen Xuan had been so eager to strike at Shangguan Castle from the very beginning.
The man possessed such terrifying strength.
What was a mere Shangguan Castle to him?
"I’ve lived for so many years, and it seems I’ve wasted them all..."
Han Zhenshan’s expression shifted as he let out a sigh.
With Chen Xuan watching over this place, who would dare to act out of line?
Who could even get away with it?
Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he hurriedly asked, "What about the Cat Demons’ corpses?"
"They’re being brought over now. Foreign Affairs Envoy Chen plans to put them on public display!"
"Excellent!"
Han Zhenshan slapped his thigh, overjoyed.
As long as the Cat Demons’ corpses were brought out, not even the Bai family would dare to utter a word of protest.
In fact, the Bai family would be desperate to distance themselves from the affair as quickly as possible.
And just as expected!
When the Bai family learned that Shangguan Castle had been destroyed and Shangguan Ao had been brutally killed, the Bai Patriarch flew into a rage, smashing a table on the spot.
But when they heard that two Cat Demons had been discovered within Shangguan Castle, they were instantly silenced.
There was no way they could get involved in this matter.
If they dared to make a single move, they would immediately be labeled as colluders with demons.
At that point, they wouldn’t be able to talk their way out of it, even if they had a hundred mouths.
And so, the entire Bai family became unexpectedly quiet.
...
...
The stronghold at the foot of the mountain.
Chen Xuan slowly exhaled, feeling the vast, searing, and terrifying power coursing through his body. He looked at his status panel again.
Name: Chen Xuan
Heart Method: None
Martial Arts: Thunderfire Vajra Skill [Sixth Layer] (Three Thousand Thunder Claps, Blazing Sun Within, Mountain-Splitting Earth-Shaker, Soul-Severing Palm), Shattering Star Finger (Sixth Layer), Flame Heaven-Burning Palm (Sixth Layer)
Cultivation: Gang Energy, Sixth Layer
Talents: Innate Divine Strength, Bronze Skin and Iron Bones, Indestructible Fist Intent (A new talent is unlocked for each level of Fame. Current Fame: Rising Star)
Retribution Points: 9100 (Can be used to evolve Martial Arts)
...
’Excellent. All my Martial Arts have reached the Sixth Layer!’
A glint appeared in Chen Xuan’s eyes.
He had even directly evolved the Flame Heaven-Burning Palm, which he had just acquired, to the Sixth Layer.
Now, with multiple Martial Arts stacked together, his power was greater than ever before.
He was one step closer to killing Qin Wushuang!
[Ding! Host’s Fame has increased again, reaching Stage Four: Widely Acclaimed. Unlocked Talent: Thunder Dharma King (Level 1)!]
[Thunder Dharma King (Level 1): You have gained initial mastery over the control of lightning. All of your attacks are imbued with the might of thunder. Where thunder strikes, all evil is purged. In thunderstorms, you will become a lord of lightning, channeling the boundless sea of lightning from the heavens to obliterate everything!]
A voice suddenly rang out in his mind.
"Hm?"
Chen Xuan froze, a look of stunned disbelief on his face.
’A fourth talent?’
’Thunder Dharma King?’
A flood of complex information poured into his mind.
Once he had processed it all, he was inwardly ecstatic.
’Excellent!’
’In a thunderstorm, I’ll become a lord of lightning.’
’This is exactly what I needed!’
’During a thunderstorm, I’ll command a hundred thousand volts. Who could possibly stand against that?’
CRACKLE!
Chen Xuan raised his hand, and arcs of purple electricity instantly enveloped his palm. They writhed like electric serpents, emanating an indescribable, destructive energy.
He could tell by feel alone that this Thunder Power was countless times stronger than his simple Gang Qi.
’Another trump card. I wonder if this Thunder Power is enough to obliterate Qin Wushuang?’
He was itching to test it out.
But he knew he couldn’t alert his enemy just yet.
If he failed to kill Qin Wushuang, things would get complicated.
Since his target had connections to demons, he might even be a powerful demon himself.
If he failed to kill him and Qin Wushuang escaped into the deep mountains, dealing with him would become extremely difficult.
So, it was better to bide his time and wait until he broke through another two layers.
He clenched his fist, and the purple currents instantly vanished.
’I’ve destroyed Shangguan Castle, and all the powers in South City who dared to be confrontational have fallen in line. Now, all I can do is wait for news from the Canglan Wang Clan.’
Chen Xuan mused.
’I wonder if that ’Heaven’s Chosen’ of the Wang Clan, Wang Qinglian, has forgotten our agreement?’
’With my current strength, I should be able to plow through the Wang Clan’s entire younger generation with ease, right?’
’After that, once I undergo the baptism in the Wang Clan’s Martial Land, I’ll become even stronger.’
’When I get back, I should be able to crush Qin Wushuang instantly.’
’Yes, that’s the plan.’
Chen Xuan nodded and headed toward the stronghold.
Securing the spoils from Shangguan Castle would take more than a day.
But he didn’t want to wait any longer. He had already reaped the most important rewards; he would leave it to Zhou Jian and the others to collect the rest.
