Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation
chapter-1554

“It looks like you are bringing out your full power. Xiao Chen, you are stronger than I thought!”

The Demonic God’s body recovered quickly. Then, it stretched out its right hand, and a huge ax appeared.

Xiao Chen’s eyelids twitched. This huge ax was also a Transcendent Divine Weapon. When the Thunder Sovereign fought the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign during Xiao Chen’s King conferral ceremony, he had used this ax.

The matters of the past truly made one sigh. Suddenly, Xiao Chen recalled that the other party had mentioned regretting letting him grow as a potential danger. Could there be some sort of hidden difficulties behind this?

However, this thought passed in a flash as the Demonic God that the Thunder Sovereign possessed already charged over.

Its aura did not change much with the addition of the weapon. However, it put down its arrogance and stopped fighting crudely. Now, it used tricks and techniques as it fought Xiao Chen, posing a greater threat to him.

In terms of combat experience, who could compare to the Thunder Sovereign, who had lived for more than ten thousand years?

Perhaps the only thing that Xiao Chen could rely on was his sharpness.

“Dang! Dang! Dang!”

The huge ax clashed with the saber, and the two started another intense battle in the Profound Domain.

The Thunder Sovereign possessed rich combat experience, but Xiao Chen’s Saber Techniques were not weak, either. Soon, both sides brought out their full power and fought even more ferociously as time went on.

Amid the Demons’ miserable shrieks, the two continued their frenzied battle.

With each passing moment, more and more Demon Race cultivators were killed on the battlefield. The Demonic World’s Primes endured bitterly, placing all their hope on the Demonic God.

The Demonic World’s Primes only hoped that the Demonic God could avert this desperate crisis by killing Xiao Chen.

Aside from focusing on the Demonic God, Xiao Chen also split off some of his attention to observe the battles of Ying Zongtian and the other Primes.

The Primes mostly held the upper hand in their battles. The exception was the Kunlun Palace’s Palace Master, who had to fight Xing Wang and Fa Wang by himself and was in a dangerous situation.

Xiao Chen took a moment to execute the Divine Lightning Eye all of a sudden.

Three Lightning Tribulations layered over each other struck Xing Wang without him being able to react at all.

Having just experienced a Lightning Tribulation, Xiao Chen had gained a new understanding of Lightning Tribulations. The three overlapping Lightning Tribulations condensed into a divine image made of lightning and fell.

“Pu ci!”

Unable to dodge, Xing Wang was immediately severely injured. After vomiting a large mouthful of blood, he was debilitated.

How could the Kunlun Palace’s Palace Master miss such an opportunity? With a backhand swing of his saber, he chopped Xing Wang in half.

The pressure on the Kunlun Palace’s Palace Master decreased considerably. In a one-on-one fight, neither Xing Wang nor Fa Wang was a match for him.

“To think that you can shift your attention while fighting me! Xiao Chen, you are truly arrogant!” The Thunder Sovereign laughed coldly as it swung down the huge ax in its hands.

Boundless thunder roared as a lightning bolt tore through the sky, pulled over by the huge ax.

Black lightning stretched down from the clouds to the huge ax, making this ax move several times faster.

“Dang!”

Xiao Chen, who blocked the ax with his saber, was knocked back one kilometer before he barely stood stably again.

“This is just the beginning. Xiao Chen, let’s see how long you can last. Even if I fight for half a year, my Demonic Qi is endless. What about you? How long will it take before you can no longer hold on? Three days? Two days? One day?”

Brandishing its huge ax, the Thunder Sovereign tried to deal a blow to Xiao Chen’s confidence and dampen his morale.

“Killing you will not take that long. At most, just half a day.”

Xiao Chen did not get angry or happy. His figure flashed, and he took the initiative to charge over.

He sought an opening. All he needed was a chance to execute all his killing moves and then use his sure-kill attack to finish off the other party.

In the meanwhile, he could not let the other party take a breather. He needed to make sure nothing went wrong.

“Thunder Hell!”

After fighting for so long, the Thunder Sovereign roared and executed its move again. It did not believe that Xiao Chen could perfectly break its Domain a second time.

Black lotus flowers hovered in the air once more, each one of them as heavy as a mountain. They all contained highly condensed Demonic Qi and flickered with black sparks. They could turn into sharp killing weapons at any moment, catching people off guard.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Countless lotus flowers spun around, circling Xiao Chen in a tight formation.

“Fish Dragon Art!” Moving like a fish in water, showing thousands of changes.

Instantly, Xiao Chen’s feet changed direction, shifting around. As he moved, he formed thousands of human figures and saber lights.

He dodged some of the black lotus flowers and chopped up the others.

“One leaf, one bodhi; one flower, one world.”

The Thunder Sovereign formed hand seals with one hand, and the situation changed. The pieces of every lotus flower that Xiao Chen shattered became even more lotus flowers.

The sudden turn of events caught him off guard, his afterimages shattering. It was hard for his true body to dodge too. He got struck by the many lotus flowers.

It was like several mountains hit Xiao Chen. The enormous force instantly sent him flying.

The lotus flowers exploded, and boundless Demonic Qi and lightning surged about in his body.

The situation promptly degenerated.

Now! Kill him in one strike!

The Thunder Sovereign saw its opportunity, and its eyes suddenly turned sharp. It gave up on its plan to fight a battle of attrition, deciding now to seize the initiative.

Aside from frustration, its decision was also mainly because the Demonic World’s Demon Monarchs were getting killed one after another. The situation was turning increasingly disadvantageous to the Demonic God.

If those Kunlun Realm Primes could free themselves and surround the Demonic God, it might very possibly end up tortured to death. Even if it did not die, it would have to flee back to the Demonic World to rest and recuperate.

“It’s coming!”

Xiao Chen’s heart sank with some nervousness. This time, the other party finally gambled and revealed an opening.

“Sharp Spirit Finger!”

As the Thunder Sovereign’s ax descended, Xiao Chen quickly executed Sharp Spirit Finger, which he had not executed for a very long time already.

All of the energies in Xiao Chen’s body—his Vital Qi, Veritable Essence Energy, Magic Energy, and even the black lightning and Demonic Qi ravaging his body—concentrated in his left index finger. He had purposely shown an opening in order to obtain such an opportunity.

In the time it took for a spark to fly, the berserk energy of the Sharp Spirit Finger knocked the huge ax that the Thunder Sovereign was smashing down out of its hands, sending it flying.

Even though the huge ax left its grip, the Demonic God still maintained the posture of holding the ax with its two hands.

This finger attack was too quick, too powerful. The Demonic God did not even realize that the ax was missing. When it finally reacted, Xiao Chen had already opened his left hand, doing his best to execute the Ice Blood Lightning Dragon, his killing move.

A berserk tricolor dragon burst out of his palm and tore a huge hole in the Demonic God’s chest.

Xiao Chen’s actions were fluid and natural as if he had practiced this move a hundred times.

Everything happened in the time it took for a spark to fly. Before the Demonic God’s body even fell, Xiao Chen swung the saber in his right hand, sending out a resplendent saber light and chopping the Demonic God’s body in half.

Under the facial skin of the Demonic God, countless faces squeezed about, contorting its face and making it looked very scary. Clearly, it was in incredible pain.

“Xiao Chen! I’ll kill you! I’ll definitely kill you!”

After reacting, the Demonic God moved at a crazy speed, throwing a palm strike at Xiao Chen.

However, Xiao Chen had long anticipated its counterattack. His left hand braced the blade of his saber as he held his saber horizontally, blocking this palm strike. However, he was still injured, vomiting blood as he flew backwards.

Clearly, the palm strike launched by the Demonic God in pain was extremely overbearing.

“Dragon Blood Soul Breaking Finger!”

Enduring the intense pain, the retreating Xiao Chen executed his final sure-kill technique.

Success or failure hinged on this finger attack!

After a struggle, the Thunder Sovereign’s face emerged from the thousands of faces, making the Demonic God look like him again.

After recovering that face, the Demonic God laughed maniacally and said, “Xiao Chen, this must be the killing method that you arrived at after much planning. Unfortunately, you still cannot kill me. I cannot die…”

The Demonic God spoke like it was speaking about something insignificant when, suddenly, it felt intense fear.

All at once, the retreating Xiao Chen’s aura changed radically when he sent out that finger attack.

Mysterious phenomena appeared in the sky. Boundless strong winds surged through the battlefield. At this moment, Xiao Chen’s aura truly suppressed the Demonic God.

This made the Demonic God feel a soul-deep fear, as well as immense pressure.

Despite recovering the Thunder Sovereign’s face after much difficulty, it started changing its face again. Sometimes, it showed the Thunder Sovereign’s face. Sometimes, it showed another person’s face.

The souls inside the Demonic God felt fear and started struggling.

“A Soul Dao Martial Technique! That’s impossible…absolutely impossible!” Suddenly, the Thunder Sovereign felt terror. It tried to do something but found that it could no longer control the Demonic God.

A scarlet light shot out of Xiao Chen’s fingertip. Everywhere within a radius of ten kilometers turned into a scarlet space. Everything that he saw turned transparent to his eyes.

Soul Energy flooded the space. It was like there were no secrets at all in the entire world.

The scarlet beam of light that had dragon patterns on it instantly pierced through the Demonic God’s brain.

“Whoosh!”

The countless souls in the Demonic God scattered. Its upper body gave off countless beams of piercing black light from the inside out.

As the light was released, the Demonic God’s Demonic Might receded like the tide.

“Boom!” The Demonic God’s body exploded. All the might and pressure coming from it vanished, disappearing completely.

Xiao Chen fell to the ground, feeling thoroughly drained. He pressed down on his chest with his left hand and coughed. After that, he got up and walked over to where the Demonic God exploded, wanting to assure himself of the Demonic God’s death.

He dragged the blade of his saber along the ground, producing scritches. As he staggered over, he saw an image in the deep crater left by the explosion. This figure looked like it would vanish at any moment, flickering in and out.

It was the Thunder Sovereign’s soul. His soul was the strongest, not immediately destroyed by the Soul Breaking Finger as the other souls had been.

However, the Thunder Sovereign’s soul was not far away from destruction. This was clear from its current state.

Xiao Chen relaxed. Now, he knew that the Demonic God had truly died.

As Xiao Chen looked at the Thunder Sovereign’s soul, which would disappear at any moment, he asked, “Do you regret it?”

The Thunder Sovereign’s soul laughed and said, “Regret? I only regret that I did not steel myself and kill you before. Don’t be happy too soon. Unless you do not leave the Kunlun Realm, you will not be able to escape death.

“I’m only dying before you do. The victor is king, and the losers are evil. Since the day I became the Dark Church’s Church Master, I have never regretted anything. Hahaha!”

Xiao Chen’s heart sank with a presentiment of trouble. However, when he was about to ask further, the speed of the Thunder Sovereign’s soul’s flickering intensified as the Thunder Sovereign laughed maniacally. His figure slowly dimmed until it disappeared.

Even in death, this crazy person, who had played many Kunlun Realm Primes in the palm of his hand, did not have any regrets.
