Chapter 138: (Backup) Chapter 137 Do You Want to Jump Up and Punch My Knees?

The time within the Sword Domain is synchronized with the outside world. Nezha has been dragging out a battle with Chiyou for six months. In these six months, Nezha has been utterly exhausted. Since his birth, he has never fought such a tiring battle.

However, the results are quite significant. Chiyou, who was originally over three meters tall, has now shrunk to a height of one and a half meters, even shorter than Nezha.

Clang!

A huge golden sword forced Chiyou to retreat, while Nezha swung three sword wheels to chase after him, taunting, "Yo, why are you so weak now? If we keep going, will you have to jump up to punch my knee?"

Constantly keeping his nerves tense was very tiring for Nezha, so he found his own way of entertainment, which was to amuse himself by spewing trash talk.

Demon Chiyou had fought countless battles; he had seen all kinds of situations, but he had never encountered Nezha’s trash talk before. Normally, all he heard were direct insults like ’your mother this’ or ’your grandmother that’.

But Nezha kept mocking him with lines like, "Have you not eaten? Put some strength into it!" "Kiddo, with your strength, I can take ten like you!" "You hit so weakly, instead of Chiyou, should we call you ’well-fed’?"

The damage was minimal, but the insults were extremely severe!

The Witch Clan has always taken pride in a strong and robust physique. Back in the day, he was the most handsome guy in the village. Nezha’s phrase about ’jumping to hit the knee’ really broke his defense, because if the fight continued, it might actually become a reality!

With a roar of anger, Chiyou charged forward again. Nezha knew Chiyou was cornered and barking mad. He kept babbling, but his nerves were highly strained, ready to counter any attack.

In an instant, a dense forest of Xuanyuan Swords appeared out of thin air between the two.

Chiyou: "..."

I’m really getting angry now.

He’s fought mage-type enemies before, but ordinary mages couldn’t break his defense. His formidable body could immunize against all spells, and when mages got close, their fate was obvious.

But Nezha’s freakish spells ignored his defense, and his body was equally tough. Who could predict the outcome once they clashed in close combat!

Moreover, Nezha kept using illusion and Rainbow Transformation to move at high speed, making him impossible to catch!

Do you have to be so sly?

Nezha didn’t feel sly at all. Does having high defense mean getting beaten up voluntarily?

Besides, with you looking like you’re about to do something desperate, should I get close and let you bite me?

Demon Chiyou didn’t add any further moves, while Nezha happily munched on peaches. At this point in the battle, the outcome was inevitable.

Chiyou also understood this truth. Despite his reluctance and anger, he really was powerless to reverse the situation, not even having a chance for a desperate attack. In a word, it was extremely frustrating.

After another round of combat, the mini Demon Chiyou, now only one meter and two centimeters tall, let out an angry roar and his body melted into a black spear shooting towards Nezha.

Nezha quickly formed a hand seal, and the densely packed Xuanyuan Swords around him exploded at the black spear. The black spear was quickly worn down by the golden swords, but its shaft shattered, and the spearhead shot forward at increased speed, piercing through layers of golden swords towards Nezha.

Nezha didn’t know that Luo Hou had used this move on Duobao Daoist before, but he wasn’t too surprised by the spearhead approaching him.

Nothing the Primordial People did could astonish Nezha anymore.

A melodious bell chime resonated in the void, and both the spearhead and Nezha suddenly froze.

The surrounding space fluctuated, and the usual Nezha, with a yellow band fastening his hair and clad in a white robe, stood with a model of the sun, moon, and stars in his hand, surrounded by earth, water, fire, and wind.

Nezha pointed at the spearhead, and the space where it was located began to rotate and twist, finally forming a singularity, continuously retracting the Demonic Qi that wanted to escape. Nezha took out the real Xuanyuan Sword and stabbed at the singularity.

The golden sword tip pierced the black singularity, like hot oil poured on cold water, causing the singularity to constantly distort into strange shapes, struggling for a long time before finally dissipating.

With a thought, Nezha made ’Li Yuanba’ merge into his body. ’Li Yuanba’ was his long-cultivated result of the One Qi to Three Pure Ones technique.

Then he canceled the Infinite Sword Domain and returned outside to Xiqi City. The Skeleton Army outside had already been completely cleared by Li Jing, but the place was still heavily shrouded in Yin energy, making it impossible for the Human Clan to survive.

He had done something, so he had to do it to perfection, otherwise, it was better not to do it.

Nezha had used up all his mana sending Chiyou a bell, but using the Thunder God Authority didn’t require much mana.

Activating the Thunder God Authority within himself, the nine heavens were suddenly overcast. Nezha’s subordinates immediately sensed the summons. This time, it wasn’t like last time when they could only assist secretly.

The gods of the Thunder Department in the sky directly revealed their forms, assisting Nezha in casting the spell.

Thunder Snakes intertwined in the heavens, and dark clouds covered all of Xiqi City and the previous Shang and Zhou battlefields.

Nezha pointed into the air, dramatically shouting, "Summon Lightning!" echoing in all directions.

A lightning bolt as thick as an arm descended from the sky like a raging dragon, as if flipping a switch. Thunder that had accumulated in the sky for a long time poured down, beginning to clear this land of gloom.

The raging thunder swept the three nations’ people for three full days, intimidating countless evil-doers with its heaven-punishing scene. The lightning not only cleared the Yin energy but also made a great contribution to the social order of the three nations.

The long years of battle between Shang and Zhou had left the surrounding populace near the war zone numb, as if the thunder had struck their souls back to life. They woke from their grief with the realization that indulging in the past only brought endless pain.

The living should strive upward, seeking new paths, rather than waiting numbly for the end of their lives.

Among the Zhou people, some even shouted, "We can’t stay here any longer. Here is a dead end for us. That King Li of Nantang also excels in Thunder Skill, surely related to the Thunder God of the Nine Heavens. We must go to Nantang, for Nantang is the true Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!"

"Yes! I want to live, I don’t want to die!"

"I also want to live!"

"So do I!"

...

The situation among the Shang citizens was similar. They had suffered from the Asura for far too long, worried every day about being the next one eaten, and for those who had relatives eaten, it was even worse. The timid swallowed their anger, while the bold added to Asura’s meal.

Those truly capable always endured, and now raised a call to arms, immediately receiving a widespread response.

Nezha did not know that his actions had led to a leap in the population of Nantang, and his name as the Great Sage Master had deeply rooted in people’s hearts, destined to become a legend after thousands of years.

After the sweep of the raging thunder, the sky finally cleared, with the dazzling sun hanging high, spreading not just sunlight, but also hope.

The sorrows and joys of people were not the same. As an Immortal, Nezha could not empathize or comprehend the regrets of the war dead or the fear and despair of the living, only simply thinking how brilliantly beautiful the sunlight was before his eyes.

The gods of the Thunder Department returned to the Heavenly Court. Nezha, after subduing the demon and stopping the evil here, thought that Hao Tian not only dared not come out to punish him but might actually reward him further.

I exorcized demons and upheld the Dao, and you, as the Lord of Three Realms appointed by the Daoist Ancestor, not only didn’t help but wouldn’t even show some appreciation?

Do you have a problem with the Daoist Ancestor?
