Chapter 272: Chapter 241: Fugitive Repels Two Demons

Chen Yuan charged towards the two old demons with a furious roar.

At the same time, heaven and earth were in turmoil.

In the sky above, a twenty-mile radius of dark clouds boiled violently, and a dazzling red glow instantly turned the clouds crimson, as the splendid fire clouds tumbled like boiling water.

"Boom"

A red to purple thunder pillar, magnificent to behold, tore through the heavens and struck down at Chen Yuan, who was piercing through the air!

Even more terrifying than the previous five-colored thunder!

Before, that was called "Lightning Attraction," merely the prelude to the beginning of the breakthrough!

Afterward, the Five Thunders would descend one by one, tempering the Divine Treasures of the Five Organs and opening the Divine Palace.

If one survives, one can overturn the Golden Cauldron in a single day, and their Primordial Spirit will emerge with the Five Qi Chaoyuan.

At this moment, Chen Yuan had no leeway to advance or retreat. With the Great Martial Vault Demons descending in their true forms, not breaking through would mean waiting for death. He could only kick open this great barrier and attract the Five Thunders, staking his life in the process.

From slaying the Six Mountains Tao Fruit, to the Scarlet Heart Demon, to confronting two Great Martial Vault Demons, fighting all the way, the boiling blood within his body was almost scorched dry.

Now, with the two Great Martial Vault Demons eyeing him covetously and the Five Thunders Bombarding from above, the situation was unprecedentedly dire. Yet Chen Yuan’s eyes blazed fiercely. Plummeting from the sky, he showed not a trace of fear. Instead, his bloodstained body let out a fierce howl as countless golden chains flew out from the Demon Suppression Tower, rattling as they entwined around the two old demons.

The life-and-death struggle along the way made Chen Yuan realize that he couldn’t lose that vigor. Once that fighting spirit disappeared, and all sorts of chaotic thoughts invaded his mind—fear, terror, hesitation—death would truly be close at hand!

After all, a person lives on just that breath of life!

Upon seeing this scene,

"Seeking death!"

"Not preparing to resist the thunder tribulation properly."

"Yet wanting to draw the thunder and fire over!"

Jixuan, with a crimson face and white pupils, saw the Human Clan’s Colonel charging at them, suppressed a cold smile at the corners of his mouth, and with a twitch of his eye, immediately guessed Chen Yuan’s intention, his voice tinged with a trace of annoyance.

This guy was insane enough to drag them down with him at the cost of his life!

And the mighty Five Thunders Tribulation that thundered across heaven and earth was something even they, having broken through as Martial Vault Demons, did not wish to provoke. Because they were demons, inherently restrained by Thunder Skills, let alone by this Heavenly Thunder.

Though their lifespans are much longer compared to the Human Clan, confronting the natural tribulations during a breakthrough was much more difficult for them, often requiring extended periods of preparation, such as arrays capable of withstanding the descent of thunder tribulation, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and so on.

Back then, they had braved the Five Thunders, barely surviving. That feeling and taste were still heart-thumpingly fresh in their memory.

"Ignorant child!"

Its gigantic Dharma Image opened its mouth, which seemed like a Blood Pool, and its teeth like door panels, roaring to the sky, a demon’s howl shaking mountains and rivers.

This roar caused buildings and stones within several miles to crumble, shaking up to the heavens, carried by a strong wind, transforming into a massive earthy-yellow Feiyi charging towards the heavenly golden chains with bared fangs and claws.

The earthy-yellow Feiyi bit down with its huge mouth, snapping the chains, sweeping up a yellow wind, and with a flap of its six wings, shattered a dozen more.

Finally, that huge mouth swallowed down the golden figure diving from above.

Only to see, the thunder pillar carrying purple fire followed closely behind, splitting the air as it descended, crashing down onto this colossal creature.

Instantly, the rampant Thunder Snakes, carrying a breath of destruction, wildly prowled around. In the blink of an eye, with a thunderous roar, like the earlier fire dragon, it was completely shattered, scattered by the wind, and yellow sand filled the sky!

In the midst, Chen Yuan’s golden body was enveloped by the crimson-purple Thunder, crackling loudly.

The Thunder, like a droplet of water on a sponge, surged wildly into Chen Yuan’s body, instantly causing his heart to emit a dazzling red electric light with each beat.

"Puh"

Chen Yuan spat out fresh blood, his golden pupils dyed with the rush of blood, his heart seeming ready to explode, and open wounds all over his body gushed with crimson.

"Bang"

"Bang"

His arms and chest had chunks of flesh shattered into cracks by the stray Thunder, which were then blasted apart, revealing stark white bones, gleaming like silver.

Chen Yuan’s body staggered in the void; intense pain caused him to let out a howl, and several of his teeth shattered.

And this was just the first Dingsi Fire Thunder.

Moreover, this was still with the borrowed power of that Great Martial Vault Demon!

And soon, the fire clouds in the sky rapidly transformed into green. Booming thunderclaps resounded, and the second Jiayin Wood Thunder was about to fall.

Chen Yuan, bearing the risk of his body exploding and dying, did not suppress the stray Thunder within him, hanging on to life only by the robust vitality swept out by the Dragon Qi Mother Tree. With a howl, his pupils bloodshot red, he continued to charge towards the low sky where the two Great Martial Vault Demons were.

Like a desperado, he exuded a tragic aura!

And Jixuan below, seeing this guy use his own strength to withstand a dart of fire thunder and then continue to dive towards it like a madman, was so angry that his eyelids twitched violently, his voice fierce and stern.

"Madman, he really is a fucking madman."

"Dreaming of using my power to resist fate’s decree, you deserve to die."

"I’ll just watch you disintegrate under the Heavenly Thunder and then capture your spirit, draw out your soul to refine it, and let you suffer all tortures. Wouldn’t that be even better?"

As he spoke, his enormous Dharma Image flickered in the void, retreating several miles away, continuing to flicker a few times, leaping out of the range of the tribulation clouds.

Another one, the Great Martial Vault Demon with a green face and black eyes, did the same.

Facing Chen Yuan’s desperate fighting style, the two Old Demons were forced to dodge. They were truly frustrated, but once they were contaminated by the Five Thunders, the power of the thunder tribulation would rise to an even higher level, truly terrifying. They did not wish to take the risk.

Moreover, this Human Clan’s Colonel was evidently about to fail to endure, and they only needed one thundering strike.

And soon,

"Rumble"

A green thunder from the sky, like a gigantic heavenly tree descending.

Chen Yuan, seeing that he had driven away the two Old Demons, quickly waved his sleeve, and the Sky Flapping Sleeve flew out. It grew in the wind, and splendid streams of light flew out.

These dazzling streams of light emitted whistling sounds that pierced the sky, growing in the wind, revealing eighteen types of Weapons, totaling twenty-eight Taoist Soldiers, spanning the sky with overwhelming momentum!

With a snort of anger from Chen Yuan and a flick of his sleeve, these more than twenty Taoist Soldiers exploded with radiant sharp gleams, screaming upwards, chopping towards the green wooden thunder that was descending from the heavens.

More than twenty radiant sharp gleams washed away several miles of cold light, colliding with the Green Thunder amidst the world, where Thunder Snakes roared, and lightning splashed like trees.

After one or two breaths,

"Bang"

"Bang"

"Bang"

"...."

Roaring blasts.

One by one, after reaching their most brilliant state, the Taoist Soldiers were exploded by the Green Thunder, as if cutting through dead wood.

But with this, the Green Thunder had its power weakened by two or three levels, directly bombarding the Demon Suppression Tower above Chen Yuan’s head, and then on Chen Yuan himself.

Thunder snakes drilled into Chen Yuan’s battered body, directly surging into his liver, illuminating it, with glaring green light leaping up.

Chen Yuan clenched his teeth tightly, enduring the intense pain as if being slashed by thousands of knives, cherishing this opportunity desperately won. Inside his body, the Golden Core trembled sonorously, golden flowing fire wildly surged, resisting the escaping thunder from his heart and liver.

The Dragon Qi Mother Tree also emitted a clear bell-like sound of leaves clashing, rolling green light, sweeping over vigorous vitality, circulating throughout his body, soaking pieces of flesh that were scorched black by lightning.

But even so, the surging thunder in an instant was extremely terrifying; the golden flowing fire was scattered, revealing horrifying white bones again.

And the Demon Suppression Tower floating above his head also endured the refining of thunderfire, trembling sharply, with one corner even being shattered.

This was still the result after diminishing a few levels of power!

The Five Thunders are the Five Layers of Life and Death, one stacking on top of another, with no chance to catch a breath. With a thunderous roar that shook the skies, the third Jiwei Earth Thunder surged down.

Above Chen Yuan’s head, the Thirty-Six Mountain Demon Suppression Tower raised a sky-high demon howl, rolling Demonic Qi surged into the sky, with hundreds of Demon spirits from the reliefs swept up in black qi, spiraling upwards.

Inside were the Little Demons of merely a few feet tall from the First Realm, and also the Ten Evils of Tao Fruit towering fifty to sixty feet high.

Ten Tao Fruit Evil Demons, more than thirty Taoist Soldier Demons, and hundreds from the Demon Crowd howled into the sky, stirring up a sky-high demon tide, welcoming the surging third Heavenly Thunder.

After a few breaths, these thousands of demon spirits were wiped out.

Chen Yuan also lit up the third Divine Treasure, and the reliefs on the Demon Suppression Tower crumbled one after another.

Then the fourth Golden Thunder fell, and Chen Yuan threw out the Bronze Couldron left by a high-ranking Demon Suppression Envoy, while controlling it with the Magic Eye Golden Light!

The Bronze Couldron was shattered, Chen Yuan’s ribs were broken by the Lung Gold Thunder, and he plummeted hundreds of meters.

And at this time, the final thunder, roaring thunderously as if a raging river in heaven, turbulent and roaring, the Nu River raging.

From a distance, Jixuan, one of the two Great Martial Vault Demons, saw that in just a few breaths, the Human Clan’s Colonel, who was about to fail to hold on, was actually fucking able to throw out one Divine Power Treasure after another to resist the thunder tribulation, enduring until the fifth Tribulation Thunder, his expression urgently angry, realizing he had been tricked, let out an angry howl.

"We can’t let him continue!"

"Even if it means being struck by the last Heavenly Thunder, we must kill this guy!"

As he spoke, his Dharma Image exploded beneath his feet, and his hand’s black Bone Spear whirled out with a sky-full of black Flame, rushing beneath the thunder clouds, striking towards that figure under the splendid blue Thunder that was plummeting from the sky!
