Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

The first four bolts of heavenly lightning were Leviathans, but the fifth was a lightning dragon.

Last time, it was the ninth heavenly bolt that became a lightning dragon, highlighting the terror of this Saintly Tribulation Thunder.

This lightning dragon was three thousand meters long; its dragon whiskers, scales, and claws were lifelike, and a hint of human-like rage could be seen in its enormous eyes, as if it were an embodiment of the Heavenly Dao.

Although Su Han could unleash the Thunder Dragon Saber Aura, it was far inferior compared to the lightning dragon of this Saintly Tribulation Thunder.

At this moment, the lightning dragon let out an ear-shattering dragon roar and then descended, carrying a violent destructive force, intending to blast Su Han into ash.

A heavenly tribulation is a punishment from the Heavenly Dao, unavoidable, only to be endured. As he faced this three-thousand-meter-long lightning dragon, Su Han’s eyes were solemn, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

”Thunderbolt Seven Absolute Slashes!”

Gripping the Black Blade, Su Han swung out a Thunder Dragon Saber Aura. However, compared to the lightning dragon of the Saintly Tribulation Thunder, it was insignificant in comparison, and following their collision, the Thunder Dragon Saber Aura was quickly shattered while the lightning dragon’s momentum was undiminished.

”Demon Storm!”

The demonic wings behind him flapped, instantly stirring up a black storm a thousand meters large, akin to a tornado blowing from the depths of Hell, carrying the powers of evil and death.

The Demon Storm was extremely powerful, capable of destroying a small city, but in front of the lightning dragon, it was unable to withstand and was blasted apart once more.

Su Han continued to make moves, employing various powerful techniques, but they could only weaken the power of the lightning dragon without truly destroying it.

Ultimately, the lightning dragon struck the Devouring Demonic Domain, creating numerous cracks, pushing it to near collapse.

Puh!

Su Han spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura instantly weakening.

This time, not only could he not temper his body with the thunder, but he couldn’t even withstand it, and this was just the fifth heavenly bolt. There were still four more terrifying ones to come.

”Peony Medicine Saint!”

Su Han reached out, grabbing the heavily injured and dying Peony Medicine Saint from afar, then shoved it into his mouth, his sharp teeth grinding it to pieces directly.

The strike from the lightning dragon earlier not only damaged his physical body but also consumed a large amount of his Demonic Qi. Now, he needed to rely on the potencies of the Peony Medicine Saint to replenish his Demonic Qi.

This Peony Medicine Saint, coveted by countless people, ended up in Su Han’s stomach, where he swiftly refined it, turning it into Demonic Qi to make up for his consumption.

”Roar!”

Before Su Han could finish refining, a dragon’s roar shook the heavens as if exploding the Heavenly Capital.

Within the thunderclouds, countless threads of thunder light intertwined, once again forming a lightning dragon, and this time the dragon stretched five thousand meters, with power nearly doubling the previous one.

In the next moment, the lightning dragon roared and dove again to attack Su Han, vowing not to stop until Su Han was reduced to dust.

This lightning dragon was exceedingly powerful, equivalent to the full-force strike of a fourth or fifth-layer Saint Realm expert. Su Han quickly employed his strongest defenses while activating the Black Blade to fully resist.

Bang!

The Devouring Demonic Domain was instantly shattered, and even the phenomenon of the Third Layer Black Hole couldn’t withstand it. Su Han was knocked from mid-air to the ground, leaving a massive crater, charred and blackened.

”Cough, cough!”

Su Han coughed blood as he struggled to stand, his whole body charred without an intact piece of flesh, his internal organs suffering terrible injuries, and with severe damage to his Dantian and Sea of Consciousness, recovery with just the Demon Body was difficult.

”Secret of Healer!”

Seeing the seventh heavenly bolt about to fall, Su Han swiftly utilized the Secret of Healer, coupled with the self-healing ability of the Demon Body, to rapidly heal his injuries. Nevertheless, though the physical injuries were easy to recover, the consumed Demonic Qi was hard to replenish quickly.

Swish!

Su Han reached out, pulling a corpse from the Bronze Ring, emanating a strong Holy Might, shaking the heavens and earth.

This was the corpse of the Black Cloud Great Saint, containing immense energy of blood and flesh. Su Han had planned to devour it after breaking through to the Saint Realm, but there was no time for that now. Without quickly replenishing the Demonic Qi, the next heavenly bolt might be impossible to withstand.

”Devouring Heaven Demonic Art!”

Su Han frantically operated the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art, devouring and refining the body of the Black Cloud Great Saint, simultaneously attacking as he refined, instantly using the newly converted Demonic Qi before it could reside in his Dantian.

”Roar!”

The familiar dragon roar resounded, and a third lightning dragon appeared, this time seven thousand meters long, each scale seemingly tangible, condensed by terrifying thunder light, with a single scale enough to flatten a mountain.

”Strongest Defense!”

Biting his teeth, Su Han dared not fight head-on this time. He activated the Great Accomplished Holy Body, employing Dragon Phoenix Protection, Nether King’s Protection, and various Origin Techniques, layer upon layer forming around him the strongest defense.

The combination of various Origin Techniques and Divine Methods, along with the mighty force of the Demon Body and the Vajra Power from the Great Luo Golden Body, elevated Su Han’s defensive power to its peak.

Boom!

The seven-thousand-meter lighting dragon roared downwards, engulfing the earth and transforming it into a vast sea of thunder, causing Dugu Imperial Son and others to quickly retreat, not daring to linger, as even the aftermath would be too much for them to bear.

Meanwhile, in the Hundred Flowers Valley, Su Han’s strongest defense was broken, and the formidable Demon Body was battered to tatters, his entire being blackened like charcoal, gasping for life, teetering on the brink of death.

”Devour!”

Pushing with the last of his strength, Su Han pulled out the corpses of the Extinction Lightning Great Saint and the Dead Rain Great Saint from the Bronze Ring, rapidly employing the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art to devour and refine them, while also borrowing the power of the Great Majestic Demon King to enhance the self-healing ability of the Demon Body a bit more.

Finally, taking a breath, Su Han revived, but his strength was only seventy percent of before. He had no time to fully refine the energy from the three Great Saint corpses, with much of it still unconverted into Demonic Qi within him.

No time was left, he couldn’t care about the rest, so Su Han decided to take a gamble.

”Roar!”

The eighth heavenly bolt descended, and this time the lightning dragon was an astonishing nine thousand meters, like a colossal mountain range, making Su Han’s figure look minuscule in comparison.

”Primordial Qi Opening Sky Axe!”

Su Han howled fiercely, releasing all his Demonic Qi, bursting out all his Divine Sense, and his Qi-Blood also surged. All forces joined to form a Primordial Qi, which then rapidly transformed, condensing into a thousand-meter Heaven-Opening God Ax.

This was Su Han’s strongest attack, and under the momentum of the blood and flesh energy from the three Great Saint corpses, its power reached an unprecedented level.

Boom!

The Primordial Qi Opening Sky Ax collided with the nine-thousand-meter lightning dragon, as if the giant spirit god was executing on the Dragon Slaying Platform, a horrific and awe-inspiring sight.

This time, Su Han successfully withstood the heavenly thunder. The nine-thousand-meter lightning dragon and the Primordial Qi Opening Sky Ax exploded simultaneously, turning the ten-thousand-meter area into desolation.

Yet at this moment, Su Han’s body was empty, Demonic Qi exhausted, Divine Sense dim, Qi-Blood withered, and even the blood and meat energy of the three Great Saint corpses was depleted.

But the Saintly Tribulation Thunder wasn’t over; there remained the final, and most terrifying bolt!
