Thunderous Yama Vine let out a chilling laugh, and lightning surged wildly, as if cheering for an impending victory:
"Humans, don't blame me! Blame yourselves for being too greedy!"
It abruptly raised its head, its gaze fixed on Thor's remains in the distance, its tone filled with twisted triumph and the arrogance of a victor:
"Thor... Haha, in the end I have won! You thought that sealing your own bloodline would stop me from devouring the divine throne? How naive! This Thor bloodline will ultimately fall into my hands!"
Just as it was basking in the joy of victory, thinking everything was fine—
"Pfft!"
A sound, extremely faint yet chillingly sharp, rang out.
Lei Mingyan Yuteng lowered his head, his pupils suddenly contracting.
A long spear, its entire body a deep blue, seemingly formed from the purest Blue Silver Emperor soul power, pierced through its vine body without warning. The spear was entwined with fierce Blue Silver Emperor thorn patterns, and its tip was continuously drawing upon the lightning essence within its body.
This is Lin Chen's second soul skill—Blue Silver Overlord Spear!
The spear's shaft resembled a solidified deep-sea sapphire, reflecting a cold and sharp light under the illumination of the purple-gold lightning. The shaft was thick and powerful, every inch of which was engraved with intricate patterns of lightning and blue silver grass intertwined. The spearhead howled with a biting wind, repelling all the surrounding lightning power.
"who?!"
Thunderous Yama Vine was shocked and violently shook its body, trying to shake the spear out.
But when it turned around, wanting to see the attacker's true face, the sight before it made it freeze.
Where is Lin Chen now?
The entire space was empty, except for the deathly still lightning crystal ground and the dragon corpse in the distance, and only clumps and patches of sparse blue silver grass.
These blue silver grasses were not a vibrant green, but rather a pale, icy blue. Each plant was slender and upright, scattered across the ground in a staggered pattern. They appeared weak, yet they exuded a chilling, oppressive aura, as if the entire space belonged to them.
Immediately afterwards, a mocking yet chilling voice came from all directions of the Blue Silver Grass, echoing throughout the entire space:
"A dignified god-level expert, Lord Thunder Dragon King, actually resorts to sneak attacks to defeat a mere level 30, second-ring Great Soul Master like me..."
"This truly disgraces you, a god-level expert! How did you know?!"
The Thunderous Hell Vine was engulfed in chaotic lightning, its purplish-gold body trembling violently. The Blue Silver Overlord Spear that had pierced its trunk was still frantically devouring its source power, leaving it both shocked and enraged.
It suddenly looked at Thor's peacefully seated body, instantly understood everything, and let out a shrill roar:
"Thor! You actually had a backup plan! You even imprinted my true identity in the inherited memories beforehand..."
But it quickly suppressed its shock, its ferocious aura surged, and it abruptly turned its head and roared at the entire void:
"Human! Come out here! Otherwise, once I find you, I will tear you to pieces and annihilate your soul!"
Only Lin Chen's nonchalant, mocking laughter drifted through the air, omnipresent yet elusive:
"If I go out now, won't I just get torn to pieces by you? Do you really think I'm a three-year-old child, so easy to fool?"
Enraged, the Thunderous Hell Vine laughed coldly, its tendrils digging wildly into the ground. The lightning throughout the entire Thunder God Ruins began to surge and churn. It said in a cold voice:
"Fine, very well! Then you can stay hidden in your domain forever and never come out! This space has already been sealed off by me, there's no way you can leave! Just pray that you can hide for the rest of your life and never be found by me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, countless thick, purple-gold lightning chains descended from the void, sealing off the entire space completely without leaving a single gap.
Lin Chen's gaze fell upon the purple-gold lightning chains that were spreading wildly through the void, locking down the entire space. This Thunderous Hell Vine, though ostensibly only possessing a cultivation of seventy thousand years, already boasted combat power approaching that of a Title Douluo. A direct confrontation would be certain death. He quickly scanned his surroundings, his gaze suddenly settling on the distance!
His eyes lit up suddenly, and without hesitation, Lin Chen instantly withdrew his Blue Silver Domain.
"Finally dared to come out!"
The Thunderous Hell Vine roared furiously across the sky, giving him no chance to speak. Billions of lightning threads on its body surged simultaneously, transforming into a vast, purplish-gold thunder prison that blotted out the sun. With a force capable of tearing apart heaven and earth, it crashed down upon Lin Chen! The lightning illuminated the entire desolate space, even the air itself crackling and scorching. The terrifying pressure caused the lightning crystals on the ground to tremble violently.
"Good timing!"
Lin Chen let out a low shout, and his blue-silver wings suddenly unfurled behind him. The pale blue wings sliced through the sky, leaving a trail of afterimages. His figure moved with ghostly speed in the air, narrowly avoiding the crushing lightning. The lightning struck the ground, instantly creating a scorched crater several meters in diameter, with rubble and sparks flying everywhere.
Lin Chen hovered in mid-air, precisely at the edge of the Thunderous Hell Vine's attack limit, neither moving too far nor too close, like a dancer on a knife's edge. With a flap of his wings, he suddenly accelerated, hurtling towards the spatial node between the Thunder God and the dragon corpse!
"court death!"
The Thunderous Hell Vine roared incessantly, its thick vines lashing out at the void. Dozens of thunderous vine whips, as thick as buckets, carrying earth-shattering power, coiled around Lin Chen from all directions, sealing off all his escape routes. Purple lightning danced wildly on the whips, causing subtle ripples in the space wherever they passed, clearly indicating that they had touched the edge of the laws of space.
Lin Chen's eyes were cold and unwavering. He neither flinched nor dodged. With a thought, eight Soul-Devouring Spider Spears burst forth from his back! The dark purple spear tips, carrying a ferocious power that devoured everything, collided fiercely with the howling lightning vine whip!
"boom--!!"
Golden-purple lightning and dark-purple devouring power exploded together, the shockwave sweeping in all directions. Lin Chen used the recoil to nimbly turn back in mid-air, rising again like a kite with a broken string, avoiding the aftershocks. The Soul-Devouring Spider Spear dimmed slightly, but it still managed to devour most of the lightning power from the vine whip, causing the Thunderous Hell Vine to let out a painful groan.
"Human, you can't escape!"
The Thunderous Hell Vine went completely berserk, its main body, rooted in the rock wall, twisting wildly. It drew upon the lightning of the entire sky, transforming it into a gigantic phantom of a thunder dragon, baring its fangs and claws as it lunged at Lin Chen. Wherever the thunder dragon passed, everything was reduced to scorched earth. Its oppressive power made it difficult for Lin Chen to even breathe.
Lin Chen gritted his teeth, fully activated his Blue Silver Wings, and frantically poured life energy into his legs. His figure drew a strange arc in the air, like a blue meteor, and sped through the gaps between the Thunder Dragon's claws and teeth!
Lin Chen finally reached his destination, where a giant pool of lightning, churning with purplish-gold divine liquid, lay directly above him. Scalding lightning power descended from the sky, drenching his hair. He abruptly turned around, hovering at the edge of the pool, facing the enraged Thunderous Hell Vine that was pursuing him head-on.
"Why aren't you running anymore? Have you found your burial place?" The Thunderous Hell Vine danced wildly, lightning crackling, its vertical pupils filled with mockery and killing intent, the entire soul beast resembling a moving hell of thunder.
Lin Chen's lips curled into a smug and roguish smile, his clear voice echoing throughout the space:
"The burial plot has indeed been found—but it's for you."
The moment he finished speaking, his dantian trembled violently, and his second martial soul, the Thunder God Hammer, appeared in the world!
A divine hammer, its body a deep purple-gold, hovered in his palm, crackling with lightning patterns and radiating divine might, creating a fierce confrontation with the primal lightning of the Thunderous Hell Vine. One was a direct disciple of the Thunder God, the other a thunder stolen by an ancient dragon; these two ultimate forms of lightning collided with a deafening roar at this moment!
"Arrogant!"
The Thunderous Hell Vine roared and swept out, its whip like a thunder dragon emerging from the sea, smashing towards Lin Chen with the force to shatter everything. Lin Chen neither dodged nor evaded, but instead unleashed the Thunder God Hammer from his palm. The moment the hammer collided with the whip, purple-gold lightning exploded into a dazzling display of light, causing the entire Thunder God Ruins to tremble violently, and the divine liquid in the Thunder Pool was blasted skyward!
At first, the two were evenly matched!
The divine pressure of Thor's hammer relentlessly suppressed the Thunder Hell Vine. Lin Chen, relying on his newly awakened Thor's bloodline, was actually fighting this super soul beast, which was approaching the level of a Title Douluo, to a standstill. His Blue Silver Wings flapped rapidly behind him, allowing him to nimbly weave through the lightning, while his Soul-Devouring Spider Spears launched surprise attacks at every opportunity. Each collision caused scorch marks to appear on the Thunder Hell Vine's body.
But this balance only lasted for a few breaths.
Lin Chen's soul power was ultimately only at the level of a level 30 Great Soul Master.
The foundation is too shallow and the roots too thin.
The light of Thor's hammer gradually dimmed, and his meridians began to throb with pain. His soul power was depleting at a speed far beyond his imagination. The Thunderous Hell Vine keenly sensed this weakness, and its body suddenly erupted with ten times the violent lightning power. One of the main vines, covered with divine patterns, pierced through the void like a spear and slammed heavily into Lin Chen's chest!
"puff--!"
Lin Chen was struck as if by a heavy blow, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the Thunder Crystal Mountain at the edge of the Thunder Pool. His clothes were torn, and a deep, charred wound that revealed bone was left on his chest. His Blue Silver Wings instantly dimmed, and his Thunder God Hammer almost flew out of his hand.
Excruciating pain swept through his entire body, and his soul power was almost completely depleted.
"Pathetic humans!" The Thunderous Hell Vine pressed closer, its tip aimed directly at Lin Chen's head, its killing intent overwhelming. "Now, prepare to go to hell!"
Lin Chen slowly propped himself up, blood still dripping from the corner of his mouth, yet he still wore that carefree, roguish smile. There was no fear in his eyes, but rather a calculating and cold gaze.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and spoke softly, his voice not loud, but it sent a chill down Lei Mingyan Yuteng's spine:
"Hell? You're the one who should be in hell."
Just as Lin Chen's chest was covered in wounds and his soul power was almost exhausted, his meridians suddenly lit up with fine purple-gold light.
The light was not external illumination, but rather emanated from the depths of his flesh and blood, as if his physical body had transformed into the purest conductor of lightning. His originally somewhat frail physique was instantly enveloped by a layer of flowing divine electric arcs, with lightning coursing beneath his skin. With each pulsation, the lightning power of the entire space was drawn madly towards him.
Thor's bloodline, fully unleashed!
Lin Chen's aura suddenly surged, and the weakness he had caused due to his low soul power was completely erased at this moment, and he even surpassed Lin Chen.
"How is this possible?!"
Thunderous Hell Vine froze instantly, its face filled with shock, its body trembling violently. "Thunder God, you...you actually added divine bloodline to your inheritance?!"
It knew all too well what this meant—this was not a simple evolution of a martial soul, but a defying fate, directly bearing the bloodline of a god in a mortal body!
Just then, the purple-gold ring behind Lin Chen's head, which was originally covered with cracks, suddenly burst out with dazzling light!
"Buzz—!!"
The ring rotates faster, connecting heaven and earth.
Behind Lin Chen, a colossal, hundred-foot-tall phantom of lightning suddenly appeared.
That was a colossal shadow of thunder, imposing and awe-inspiring!
The colossal figure was composed entirely of pure purple-gold divine lightning, its outline clearly defined. It wore tattered Thunder God armor, wielded a massive Thunder God hammer, and possessed a majestic yet compassionate gaze. It stood opposite the giant lightning pool in the sky, the surging divine liquid of the pool transforming into countless streams of light that continuously poured into this phantom, supplying it with endless lightning power.
This is... the true form of the Thunder God!
"Divine Skill - Thor's Hammer!!"
Lin Chen roared, his voice piercing through thunder and resounding throughout the heavens and earth.
The phantom of Thor behind him simultaneously raised his hand, lifting the giant hammer formed from divine lightning high. Then, without reservation, with the power to destroy everything, he slammed it down!
With a single hammer blow, the world changed color!
Thunderous Hell Vine's eyes suddenly sharpened, its purplish-gold vine body tensed violently, and countless roots pierced the void like sharp thorns, roaring:
"You think you can kill me with this little bit of divine skill?!"
As soon as it finished speaking, it disregarded the backlash and its entire body of vines lit up wildly, transforming into a huge net of lightning power that devoured the lightning power that the phantom of the Thunder God was smashing down! The purple-gold lightning liquid surged into it along the vines, and its aura increased at a speed visible to the naked eye, more than 70,000 years, 75,000 years, and 80,000 years!
A terrifying aura of a soul beast swept across the entire space, and Lei Ming Yan Yu Teng threw his head back and laughed wildly, his voice maniacal:
"See that? Even Thor couldn't kill me back then! You, a mere mortal who just inherited my bloodline, dare to challenge me?!"
But its laughter lasted only a moment before it abruptly stopped.
The smile froze on his face, the vine trembled violently, and an uncontrollable throbbing pain exploded from the depths of his soul—it had reached its limit!
Lin Chen's lips curled into a cold smile, his eyes sharp as knives:
"I'm going to make you suck until you burst!"
He suddenly activated all of his Thor bloodline, and the purple-gold ring behind his head shone brightly to its maximum. The giant hammer raised by the phantom of Thor crashed down again!
The endless Thunder Pool Divine Liquid surged into the phantom's body like a celestial river overflowing its banks, transforming into world-destroying thunder power that slammed fiercely into the Thunderous Hell Vine!
This time, Lei Mingyan Yuteng could no longer withstand it.
"Bang—!!"
Blinding purple-gold lightning overflowed wildly from its vine body, like an out-of-control thunderstorm, exploding in concentric circles of arcs of light around it. The thick main vine began to twist and swell, its skin cracking with fine black fissures. The overflowing lightning power not only could not be absorbed, but was instead tearing apart its very physical essence.
Its entire soul beast was trembling violently, its tendrils flailing wildly, no longer displaying any of its previous ferocity, only painful struggle.
The lightning power within its body went completely out of control, rampaging wildly, colliding with each other, and self-destructing like an explosion, destroying its meridians and roots. The once radiant purple-gold vine became dull and mottled, with many parts beginning to char and wither. The lightning eye calyx at the top rapidly contracted, and the lightning pupils flickered violently, its life force draining away at an alarming rate.
It could no longer utter any wild words, only let out a mournful and weak wail.
His entire body was wreaking havoc with lightning, and his physical body was on the verge of collapse.
Death is just one step away.
