Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Thunder Shock Pointing Revealed

The moment the Sword Patterned Snake Demon King appeared, it blasted Hong Man and Jiang Churan away with supreme might. Its casual demeanor seemed as if it was merely brushing away a speck of insignificant dust.

Yuan Cong’s mouth hung wide open, a surge of fear welled up from within, as if he were petrified.

”Roar!”

The Snake Demon King, its enormous snake eyes rotating left and right, swept the surroundings and then landed on the already dead snake demon lying on Mirror Lake. Instantly, it erupted with a snarl even more terrifying than before.

The sound was infused with vast demon energy, causing Mirror Lake to boil and the surrounding ground to crack open. Centered around it, trees within hundreds of meters were torn asunder by the sound.

”What is that sound?”

The sound rolled like thunder, in that moment, echoing throughout the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

Boys hunting demon beasts in the forest suddenly narrowed their eyes, turning their gaze toward the direction of the snake’s snarl.

”That, a snake roar? Could it be the Snake Demon King in Mirror Lake?”

”Are you talking about the Snake Demon King that has reached the Spiritual Sea Second Heaven?”

”Could it be that someone recklessly tried to take it on?”

In the blink of an eye, many had guessed what had transpired.

”Whoosh!”

As the snake’s snarl resounded, a flash of cold light appeared in Yuan Cong’s eyes. He grabbed a massive boulder with his right hand and hurled it directly at Ye Qingchen. While Ye Qingchen was on guard against the Snake Demon King, he suddenly felt a fierce wind behind him. With a flash of his sword, he sliced the boulder in half.

”Boom!”

The raging Snake Demon King, suddenly attracted by the commotion, set its snake eyes on Ye Qingchen and charged out from Sword Lake.

Its massive body brought a white wave of hundreds of meters on the water surface, extending directly to Ye Qingchen’s position, like a dragon surfing through waves.

As the Snake Demon King was attracted to Ye Qingchen, Yuan Cong, like a startled rabbit, fled without a second thought.

Of course, he had to flee.

Ever since he saw the Snake Demon King emerging from the water, his heart had plummeted into a bottomless abyss.

The previous snake demon was only slain by the combined efforts of Ye Qingchen, Hong Man, and Jiang Churan. Now, this snake demon was even stronger than the last. If not to escape now, when?

As for Jiang Churan, though he liked her, what difference did it make?

His own life was more important after all.

”Damn it!”

Ye Qingchen didn’t have time to bother with Yuan Cong’s maneuvers because the Snake Demon King had already charged at him.

”Bang!”

With a loud crash, Ye Qingchen leaped into the air, and the massive green stone beneath his feet was shattered by the Snake Demon King. Countless rocks shot out like Flying Locust Crossbow Arrows in all directions.

The Snake Demon King, swinging its body, leapt up from below, its overwhelming jaws lunging at Ye Qingchen midair.

Ye Qingchen, with a calm and steady demeanor, unleashed an endless Sword Rain from his long sword. The Sword Rain enveloped the entire body of the snake demon, fiercely blasting against it.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

On the ground, in the sky, everywhere in sight, there was nothing but endless sword light.

At this moment.

Ye Qingchen held nothing back, channeling all his astral power into the sword light. The Snake Demon King’s body suddenly seemed as if it was set ablaze with countless firecrackers, its scales exploding piece by piece.

One as huge as a mountain, the other small as dust, the disparity was immense.

Yet, Ye Qingchen managed to suppress the Snake Demon King forcefully!

”Break!”

Finally.

In the midst of the clash, Ye Qingchen found the opponent’s weakness, and with star-infused sword edge, like lightning, struck the right eye of the Snake Demon King.

”Roar!”

The agonized Snake Demon King let out a heaven-shaking roar, and before Ye Qingchen could react, it swung its tail, slamming heavily into him.

”Pfft!”

The terrifying force caused Ye Qingchen to spit a mouthful of blood, his body flung backward like a kite with a broken string.

”Bang, bang, bang!”

The tremendous power had him crashing into one giant tree after another, finally stopping as he hit a mountain rock hard.

At that moment, Ye Qingchen felt as if all the bones in his body were breaking.

Yet the Snake Demon King, relentless in its pursuit, rushed forth with even greater ferocity. Everything in its path, whether boulders or ancient trees, was smashed to pieces.

”Hiss!”

In a flash, it covered hundreds of meters and appeared right in front of Ye Qingchen.

Simultaneously, it opened its bloodthirsty jaws, ready to bite down.

”It seems I have to use that move!”

As he faced the menacing jaws, Ye Qingchen’s eyes narrowed with determination.

As the snake’s mouth neared him, he suddenly stepped forward, his right forefinger pointed abruptly!

Thunder Shock Pointing!

Profound Grade Top Technique!

At that moment.

Ye Qingchen felt his forefinger transform into a black hole, drawing and channeling all his astral power, concentrating it all into that finger.

As his finger landed at the snake demon’s pivotal point.

The Snake Demon King let out an agonizing scream, its body exploding as if ignited with dynamite, with blood and flesh splattering madly, revealing a massive bloody hole over its vital spot, through which its beating snake heart could be seen.

”Zing!”

Amidst the splattering blood.

Ye Qingchen swung his sword in a wide arc.

Killing Sword Stance!

”Screech!”

The Snake Demon King let out a final, pitiful scream.

As the sword edge swept across, the giant body of the Snake Demon King split violently in two, crashing to the ground with a resounding thud.

Watching the struggling, twitching, slowly fading Snake Demon King, Ye Qingchen felt as if a seed was quietly forming in his mind.

A seed like a sword!

”What exactly is this?”

”Could it be Sword Intent?”

Feeling the strange sensation quietly arising in his mind, Ye Qingchen couldn’t hide his shock.

But then, a sudden wave of intense pain surged, abruptly interrupting his thoughts. This pain spread rapidly throughout his body, contorting his face!

”Is this the aftereffect of using Thunder Shock Pointing?”

It was excruciating.

Indeed!

As a Profound Grade Top Martial Technique, even only as a fragment, its execution demands are extremely high. Ye Qingchen had anticipated such consequences, but the unexpected onslaught of pain still exceeded his expectations.

Only after a while did the intense pain subside somewhat.

”It seems this Thunder Shock Pointing really should be used sparingly... the damage to the body is just too severe!”

At that moment, a feeble moan quietly sounded.

”Jiang Churan?”

Ye Qingchen’s eyes sharpened, realizing the sound came from Jiang Churan.

Without a moment’s hesitation, he headed directly towards the source of the sound.
