Chapter 828: Chapter 822: Supreme Subjugation by the Heavenly Sovereign

The astonishing wave swept out, causing the entire ground to shake violently.

The sword light confronted the ancient Thunder Talisman, and in that instant, countless arcs of lightning spread out, engulfing Ye Xuan completely.

Numerous people gazed solemnly at the sky, with a touch of fear in their eyes. They could feel that Lei Qianzhang’s attack might require a substantial cost even for those in the same realm, yet Ye Xuan dared to face it head-on—it was truly arrogant.

“He actually got hit by the Thunder Talisman.”

Qiu Xing and others watched this scene with expressions of surprise and malice. They were well aware of the power of the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman. If they could gather all three pieces, its power could obliterate all living beings within ten thousand miles into nothingness.

The power of the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman is extremely violent, and no one in the world dares to confront it head-on. Even among peer experts, it induces caution. Now, with Ye Xuan hit directly, they could hardly imagine any survival for him.

Meanwhile, as Qiu Xing and others rejoiced, Ba Zhuo, Luo Qing, and others in the distance looked pale, clenching their fists tightly with fierce eyes.

Evidently, they too had heard of the terrors of the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman.

The sky was silent, and countless gazes focused on the place in the sky where the glow was the most intense; the result of this encounter was about to emerge.

Lei Qianzhang walked on air, a colossal light shadow floating behind him, his face extraordinarily cold. He stared ahead, a sinister smile flickering at the corner of his mouth. He didn’t believe Ye Xuan could withstand his terrifying assault, which even peers of Fifth Grade Martial Saints dreaded.

“A little skill, daring to be arrogant; in your next life, you’d better learn to be smarter.”

Lei Qianzhang sneered with ridicule, but his voice abruptly stopped, and a look of shock flashed across his cold face.

“Hiss!”

At this moment, the thunder light receded at a remarkable speed, and as the light faded, a slender figure reappeared in the center of countless incredulous gazes.

“Buzz.”

A low buzzing sound spread violently, like a swarm of locusts, suddenly resonating over this forest, breaking the slightly quiet earth.

“How is it possible?!” Qiu Xing and others were equally dumbfounded at this moment.

“Blocked it?” Ba Zhuo and others muttered in astonishment.

“Seems like something is about to fly out.”

Someone looked closely into the air, where a sword light was rapidly magnifying amidst the violent lightning arcs, slashing towards Lei Qianzhang like a storm.

Lei Qianzhang’s complexion changed as well; clearly, he too couldn’t believe Ye Xuan could launch such an offensive after enduring the attack of the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman.

“Master Ye Xuan is also injured.”

Luo Qing and others raised their heads, their pupils slightly contracting. In their sight, Ye Xuan’s body bore multiple bloodstains, the wounds somewhat charred, evidently not lightly injured.

Even breaking through the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman’s assault, part of the violent thunder still landed on Ye Xuan.

This portion of power was difficult to counteract.

“Truly hateful.”

Lei Qianzhang’s face darkened as he absorbed the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman that flew out into his hand, then grasped it with both hands, striking fiercely at the incoming sword light.

Bang!

Hiss hiss…

Muffled sounds spread, sparks flying, Lei Qianzhang was then shaken back hundreds of meters, dragging a deep mark beneath his feet.

In the end, it was evenly matched!

The crowd inevitably buzzed with amazement—Lei Qianzhang, who even used the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman, couldn’t take down Ye Xuan?

“I refuse to believe that I, Lei Qianzhang, can’t handle a mere nuisance like you!”

A voice of rage and laughter burst from Lei Qianzhang’s mouth; facing the troublesome Ye Xuan, true anger was kindled. If he couldn’t deal with Ye Xuan today, how could he call himself the City Lord of Thunder City?

“Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman, Void Blue Thunder!”

Lei Qianzhang’s hand seals changed, and his face gradually turned devout. Walking midair amidst countless astonished gazes, the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman seemed to communicate with the upper realm thunders.

Scree!

An ancient sharp cry resounded from above the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman, brilliant lights surged, nine magnificent giant tail feathers swayed, and a colossal thunderbird imbued with endless nobility burst forth.

Upon the thunderbird’s appearance, its magnificent tail feathers flapped sharply, gathering thunderbolts across the sky. As the thunderbird descended with its wings, space was forcefully torn apart wherever the light and shadow passed!

Brilliant lights and shadows, filled with the aura of death.

The commotion caused all to move involuntarily.

This force left even Ye Xuan feeling a trace of chill.

“Struggle all you want, but the result is the same.”

Lei Qianzhang sneered, “In the face of the ultimate power of the Heavenly Emperor Thunder Talisman, your power is no different from an ant’s!”

“Is that so?”

Ye Xuan appeared somewhat battered, his clothes and hair in disarray, yet there was no trace of panic on his face. Instead, he slowly curled his lips, and the next moment, as the raging thunderbird roared in, he suddenly extended his hand, revealing an ancient book in his palm, emanating an astonishingly strange brilliance with runes shooting out.

The moment the ancient book appeared, it constructed a complex rune light barrier.

Boom!

The thunderbird, carrying immense thunder force, smashed into the rune light barrier, shaking the skies and stirring up a monstrous wave.

Countless trees were uprooted, a wasteland left behind, and each struck lightning bolt left a charred tree.

The earth trembled, continuously collapsing, and in a few breaths, a thousand-foot wide dark hole appeared in the forest below, with massive fissures like a spider web spreading from its edges.

Countless people watched this scene, their heartbeats suddenly accelerating. They then swiftly raised their heads to look at the figure still standing firm in the sky.

The violent lightning struck the rune light barrier, yet even when the thunderbird exploded, the rune light barrier merely vibrated violently, astonishingly staying intact.

“How could it be?”

The smiles on Lei Qianzhang and his followers’ faces swiftly stiffened.

His all-out effort was ineffective?

“Earth Emperor Book, Suppress from Within the Sky!”

Grasping the Earth Emperor Book, Ye Xuan seemed like a sage enlightened of past and future. He suddenly flipped to the last page of the book, and the rune light barrier pressed towards Lei Qianzhang.
