Chapter 289: The Yellow Sparrow Behind (Part Three)
Although Yin Wuqie was mentally injured, his true strength still remained more than half. Back when he was evading Bai Qi's Blood Handprint before Wuguan, he had not used that strange escape technique. Therefore, Sun Zhe remained vigilant. Although Yin Wuqie had grasped the timing of his attack perfectly, he could do nothing against Sun Zhe, who was on guard. With one slash, this Young Powerhouse from the Dark Continent could only watch helplessly as he met his end.
A cold wind swept through, stirring up gray dust across the vast plain. In just one hour, over thirty Young Powerhouses from the three continents had fallen, leaving only Sun Zhe standing.
Looking at the corpses lying on the ground, Sun Zhe waved his right hand to take the Ethereal Rings from several people without examining them closely and stuffed them into his pocket. Then, with a hand gesture, a yellow earth dragon rose from the ground, kicking up sand and dust to cover the bodies.
After doing all this, Sun Zhe continued to move toward the direction of Qin State. Since Yin Wuqie and the others were dead, the formations and restrictions set up on the periphery were no longer effective and could not obstruct him. However, at the moment his right foot stepped forward, his eyes suddenly narrowed. He noticed that an imposing figure had appeared in front of him without him realizing it.
Dressed in a purple satin robe with striking short purple hair, this figure stood casually with hands behind his back on a dirt slope. He exuded an air of nobility as if he were born of royal blood. His arrogant eyes sparkled with a disdainful light, as if everything in the world was destined to submit beneath him.
"Thunder Abyss..."
Sun Zhe's gaze turned cold; he slowly withdrew the foot he had just lifted. Tension filled his body as he looked at Thunder Abyss, whose demeanor seemed to have undergone a dramatic transformation.
"Thunder Abyss possesses the bloodline of the Ancient Thunder God and is a true Descendant of the Thunder God. Even if he does not consciously cultivate, his cultivation can grow with the awakening of his bloodline. If he ever fully awakens it, he could become a being akin to a deity."
Recalling Yan Ruoyun's evaluation of Thunder Abyss in Thunder Continent's Linwu City, Sun Zhe felt an even greater weight in his heart. Although Thunder Abyss did not release any astonishing aura, Sun Zhe could still sense a significant change in Thunder Abyss's presence, as if something within him was slowly awakening.
"From the phantom that appeared behind you earlier, it seems to be that fallen Supreme War Ancestor from War Clan. It looks like you indeed gained quite a lot in War Clan territory. As for Yin Wuqie, I never expected him to die at your hands. If I were to spread this news, your reputation would surely soar throughout the world."
Seeing Sun Zhe appear as if facing a formidable enemy, Thunder Abyss smiled and took two steps forward casually. His gaze flickered slightly as he spoke slowly, as if chatting with an old friend—his demeanor was extremely relaxed and pleasant. His voice was also very magnetic; even Sun Zhe couldn't help but lower his guard slightly.
"The mantis stalks the cicada while the yellow sparrow waits behind; it seems Brother Lei is preparing to be that yellow sparrow?" Sun Zhe narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
Since Thunder Abyss could say such things, it was clear that he had arrived here long before. Even Yin Wuqie and the others might not have noticed his presence. Connecting this with Yin Wuqie's last words made Sun Zhe realize that Yin Wuqie and his group had likely become pawns in Thunder Abyss's game.
"Heh heh, Brother Sun is too polite. Let’s get straight to the point; I just want to ask you one thing: do you have that half map of the Thunder God Altar?"
Thunder Abyss smiled slightly, but there was no hint of amusement in his jet-black eyes. The focus of his gaze was entirely on Sun Zhe, and deep within those eyes lay a chilling intensity. As he spoke, strands of violent Lightning Arc surged forth from his palm behind him.
"The map of the Thunder God Altar..."
Hearing this word, Sun Zhe's heart suddenly tightened, and he immediately thought of the young man who had sent him the battle corpse. That half map of the Thunder God Altar was also given to him by that young man. All along, Sun Zhe had never understood why he would give this half map to him, but now he seemed to vaguely understand a little.
"Did he tell you?" Looking calmly at the Thunder Abyss not far in front of him, Sun Zhe asked lightly. Although he did not specify who this person was, Sun Zhe believed that Thunder Abyss must know.
"It seems that half of the map is indeed in your hands. To be honest, I am not particularly interested in your head, Sun Zhe. I can keep your secret for killing so many people, but I must obtain that half of the Thunder God Altar. I possess the Thunder God Bloodline, and what is inside that altar is extremely important to me."
Thunder Abyss stared intently at Sun Zhe and slowly spoke, especially emphasizing his last sentence.
What is important to Thunder Abyss is equally important to Sun Zhe. Perhaps the map of the Thunder God Altar is considered a treasure for any Thunder cultivator because it contains the Thunder God Essence formed after an adult Thunder God passed away. This Thunder God Essence not only includes the essence of his entire life’s cultivation of Thunder Power but also encompasses his memories of the Thunder Law. For any Thunder cultivator, it is something they cannot give up.
Especially now that the Great War General has begun, if Sun Zhe could completely fuse with this Thunder God Essence, his cultivation would likely rise rapidly in a short period. While it might not allow him to step directly into the Divine Realm, entering the Holy Rank should still be quite feasible, giving him more confidence in the upcoming great battle.
"What if I don't?"
Gazing at Thunder Abyss standing ahead, Sun Zhe's spirit tensed again, and his right hand gripping the Long Sword tightened slightly.
"You should have consumed over fifty percent of your spiritual power in that last battle. Do you think you are still my opponent now? To be honest, my Thunder God Bloodline has awakened more than half. Below Holy Rank, I have no rivals. As long as I obtain the Thunder God Essence from the Thunder God Altar, I can fully activate my bloodline and directly step into the Divine Realm!"
This is the advantage of possessing a supreme bloodline; Thunder Abyss does not need to go through what Sun Zhe did—struggling to fuse with Nine Heavens Divine Thunder and Blood of the War Ancestor. He just needs to wait for his bloodline to awaken gradually. While Sun Zhe achieved his current accomplishments through a series of efforts and opportunities, Thunder Abyss suddenly awakening his bloodline allowed him to surpass Sun Zhe directly—that is the advantage of birth.
Taking a deep breath, Sun Zhe realized that Thunder Abyss was fully prepared because he noticed that the surrounding formation had started operating again. Clearly, Thunder Abyss was not only using Yin Wuqie and others' lives but also utilizing the formation they had set up. To be honest, Sun Zhe did not believe that after handing over the map, Thunder Abyss would let him go.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A thunderous sound erupted as both of them unleashed a terrifying wave of energy simultaneously. Both were extraordinary individuals; at this point, they had already discerned each other's choices and showed no hesitation in their actions—each struck with full force!
The silver Star Point within his Left Eye spun rapidly as violent Thunder Power surged into his limbs. His robust body instantly radiated purple light, and the Purple Thunder Domain appeared around him, rapidly expanding outward as he transformed into a bolt of lightning charging toward Thunder Abyss.
Thunder Abyss was three times faster than Sun Zhe; his purple hair flared out as countless purple arcs surrounded his body like serpents of purple lightning. In an instant, they formed a massive Thunder Domain that was denser than Sun Zhe's. As Sun Zhe's domain expanded forward, the two domains collided directly.
Thunderous Roar...
The raging Thunder Power echoed across the plain as it once again welcomed a great battle. Dust and stones flew everywhere; energy surged wildly as both their domains unfolded, creating a purple world within a thousand feet radius in an instant while Sun Zhe and Thunder Abyss floated at its center.
A hundred-foot phantom stood coldly behind Sun Zhe, which was the War Ancestor's Phantom. However, behind Thunder Abyss, a hundred-foot giant also manifested. This giant had two horns on its head and was tightly wrapped in a set of purple armor, holding a Purple Steel Fork. Arcs of Thunder Light flickered around its body, revealing the phantom of the Ancient Thunder God!
"Kill!"
With a cold shout, both figures charged forward simultaneously. This time it was not a contest with Yuan Rong, but a true battle to the death. Sun Zhe showed no hesitation and directly drew out the Ancient Bell Blade, unleashing the full power of the Ancient Divine Weapon. Waves of terrifying Sword Aura surged toward Thunder Abyss.
Thunder Abyss also pulled out a Purple Long Spear from somewhere, with an Eight-Legged Thunder Dragon carved along its shaft. The spear tip shimmered with light as he gripped the spear tightly. With a swift thrust, he conjured lightning serpents that charged directly at the terrifying Sword Aura, their might rivaling that of Sun Zhe's Ancient Bell Blade.
Boom Boom Boom Boom...
The violent energy clashed within the two Thunder Domains. Both fighters experienced significant boosts in strength within their respective realms, enhanced further by the summoned Ancient battle phantoms. The intensity of their confrontation was comparable to that of two Saint-Level Experts, enveloping the surrounding area for dozens of miles in a terrifying energy wave that shook all living beings within a hundred miles.
Top-tier powerhouses across the continent turned their attention to this clash, especially those from the nearby Qi Kingdom and cultivators stationed in Qi Kingdom from Wings of Wind Continent. They were filled with astonishment and quickly rushed toward the battlefield!
