295: Thunder shatters the darkness!
Shen Bei was somewhat confused.
What in the world was Wu Jue doing?
How did he suddenly fly up into the sky mid-fight, as if startled by something?
Was this Blood Cloud really that terrifying?
The truly terrifying part was still to come.
Did this guy sense some danger?
Shen Bei tilted his head: “Precognition of death?”
If it was that kind of Martial Skill, what good was it?
Did death still need to be predicted?
That was the unknown.
However, Shen Bei didn't care that Wu Jue had flown into the sky; his Blood Cloud was large enough, if not covering the entire Qipan Mountain, then it was close.
There was no escaping!
Shen Bei had never seen anyone outrun the speed of lightning!
… …
And at this very moment.
The participants still undergoing practical training on Qipan Mountain all stopped what they were doing and collectively looked up at the sky.
They all gasped in shock, their expressions terrified, their lips trembling as they uttered unbelievable sounds:
“Why did the sky turn dark? No, the sky turned red?”
“Holy shit! Which powerful being is unleashing a big move? Is it necessary for a practical exercise?”
“Blood-colored dark clouds, overwhelming hostility, this is a great terror between life and death!”
“Damn it! Everyone's watching, and you're still hitting people? These students have no Martial Virtue! What, your name is Qi Chuanyu? That name sounds familiar.”
“It's raining… time to bring in the laundry!”
… …
Meanwhile, Governor Yu Qi and Qiu Bu Ye, who were on either side of the command platform, also looked up.
They realized something was amiss.
Although it was a practical exercise, it shouldn't be so earth-shattering that it changed the weather!
“Who is it?! They're not being careful; tell him to stop!” Governor Yu Qi's expression was a little ugly.
Undoubtedly, such an oppressive Blood Cloud was meant to kill, not to show off or threaten.
An assistant immediately shouted into the microphone: “Governor Yu Qi's order! This is getting too big; whoever among the Social Martial Artists is doing this, quickly retract your Divine Ability!”
After the shout went out, the Blood Cloud in the sky continued to churn, and a faint rumble of thunder could still be heard brewing within it.
At this moment, Yu Qi stood up and glanced at Qiu Bu Ye on the opposite command platform, his eyes filled with doubt.
If it wasn't a Social Martial Artist, then it must be a Shencheng Martial Arts University student?
But which student could possess such ability?
Qiu Bu Ye frowned, immediately shouted into the microphone, telling the students to retract the Blood Cloud, as it was damn scary.
However, Shen Bei's earpiece had already been lost during the battle.
Let alone lost, even if it hadn't been, he wouldn't have paid attention to Qiu Bu Ye's shouts.
… …
Outside Qipan Mountain.
Bai Wei, responsible for guarding against Vicious Beasts escaping the perimeter, glanced at the sky, scoffed, and continued to bury her head in playing King of Glory.
Her score was 0-11-0.
Even her in-game name was paid to be changed to “Bai Gei.”
At this moment, Zhuang Bifan stared straight at the sky, his lips trembling slightly, and suggested: “This is Shen Bei's doing, right? Isn't he playing a bit too big? It looks like he's going to kill someone.”
“I'm going to kill someone too!” Bai Wei leaned back in her rocking chair, her long, fair legs dazzling: “But I only got 0-11.”
Seeing Bai Wei's attitude, Zhuang Bifan simply continued to admire himself in the mirror.
But he still asked, “Is it really no problem?”
Bai Wei yawned, frantically rubbing her fingers on her phone: “Shen Bei fights, but he doesn't slaughter indiscriminately. According to top-secret information, everyone who dies by his hand deserves it.”
“I mean, what if Shen Bei gets killed?”
“Then go down to the dungeon yourself.”
“Tsk, if Shen Bei isn't going, why should I?”
Bai Wei looked up at him, her expression strange: “I advise you to have a more upright worldview. While true love is invincible, Brokeback Mountain is not advisable.”
Through the mirror, Zhuang Bifan looked at Bai Wei with some annoyance: “Has your brain circuit been infected by Shen Bei? You fujoshi, bah! If this continues, you'll become the only one of the Ten Heavenly Kings to retire early as a Martial God.”
Bai Wei chuckled, tossing her hair: “That would be great; it's lonely at the top. You can't understand my suffering.”
If it weren't for Zhuang Bifan being unable to defeat Bai Wei, he would have really wanted to flip her rocking chair.
Truly, the well-fed don't know the hunger of the starving.
… …
On the other side, Wu Jue was already numb.
In this flash of lightning, with less than a second left until the dark ending in his “Future Vision,” Wu Jue, frantically flying under the dark clouds, had a terrified expression. He couldn't even begin to consider how Shen Bei could have done such a thing, and a roar of unbelievable horror burst from his heart!
Rumble… …
The next moment, deafening thunder spread across the sky, a massive rumble that seemed to shatter one's Soul, shaking the entire area, as if the entire firmament had begun to rage!
The earth-shattering thunder seemed to echo directly in his heart. Under the mortal threat of certain death, Wu Jue, whose liver and guts were already split, stiffened, and his heart seemed to stop for a moment.
Because above his head, a domineering pressure that made his hair stand on end surged forth, overwhelming everything!
Crack!
In less than a blink of an eye, in the Void Realm about twenty to thirty meters above Wu Jue's head, a brilliant electric light suddenly exploded, the blood-red dark clouds churned wildly, countless dense electric lights suddenly burst forth from the Void Realm, and then countless electric lights intertwined and combined, suddenly converging into a domineering, thunderous figure that seemed to fill the heavens and earth!
And just as the thunderous figure appeared, behind him, fierce winds raged, dark clouds surged wildly, like the sky was falling.
And in the cracks of the dark clouds, thunder rumbled across the sky, lightning bolts connecting heaven and earth, constantly swaying and rolling, flashing across the sky, interweaving into a purgatory of thunder filled with destructive aura!
This figure, appearing as if teleporting onto Wu Jue's escape path, was naturally Shen Bei, who was relentlessly chasing on the ground, running at an incredibly fast speed, revealing his true strength.
Shen Bei could also fly through the air.
But the speed of flying… it was better not to mention it.
It was definitely not as fast as running on the ground.
After Shen Bei surpassed Wu Jue, he leaped into the air amidst the thunder and appeared before Wu Jue!
“You!”
Time seemed to freeze for a moment. A terrifying scene, like the end of the world, entered his vision. Wu Jue's handsome face was extremely contorted, as if his throat was tightly gripped, and he couldn't utter a single word!
“I just don't understand, why are you running? Do you know you're going to die?”
Fierce winds howled, and thunder roared. Shen Bei, like a thunderous figure filling the heavens and earth, looked down from above at Wu Jue with mocking and merciless eyes:
“I'm very interested in your Martial Skill. How about we make a deal? Do you possess the Martial Skill of precognition? I saw with my own eyes how you dodged my blade light.”
“If you hand over your Martial Skill, I'll stop being human, violate my principles, and let you go. How about it?”
Wu Jue looked horrified and cursed loudly: “Go to hell, I won't give it to you even if I die!”
Boom!
The next instant, Shen Bei suddenly spread his arms. Behind him, the surging thunderous dark clouds let out roars more overwhelming and terrifying than angry thunder and surging waves. Then, a dazzling, violent, and destructive bolt of terrifying lightning flashed violently. In a tenth of a second, it struck the horrified Wu Jue with a destructive force that seemed capable of tearing the entire sky to shreds!
“If you don't give it, then die!”
Shen Bei didn't waste any more words.
Even if you, Wu Jue, have some ability, you can't escape the Blood Cloud's range, nor can you outrun the might of the thunder!
Instantly.
Thunder rumbled across the sky, and lightning snakes surged through the dark clouds, tearing the heavy dark clouds to pieces, almost ripping apart heaven and earth.
When the thunder intertwined and flashed to its extreme, it seemed even a portion of the Void Realm was pierced by the lightning. Every word from Shen Bei's mouth resonated with the thunder!
“No—!”
The speed of lightning, hundreds of kilometers per second, thousands of times the speed of sound, completely exceeded Wu Jue's reaction speed, even for Wu Jue, who possessed “Future Vision” and could predict in advance.
Prediction was prediction.
Speed was speed.
The two were not comparable.
If Wu Jue had been facing other Martial Artists, with his ability, he could have played them to death.
Because no one's attack speed could be faster than lightning!
Even for an electric-type Martial Artist, there was still a process and time for electricity to penetrate the air when discharged.
And at this moment, with the Blood Cloud covering the sky above Wu Jue's head, lightning could strike from any angle!
Facing the lightning bolts that flashed and roared down from the sky, Wu Jue screamed frantically, yet he had no room to dodge at all and was instantly engulfed by the violent lightning!
Boom boom boom boom boom—!
The moment Wu Jue was submerged by the overwhelming lightning, destructive lightning exploded and splattered. All the air in the sky violently shook, and a wave-like shockwave surged out in all directions, followed by an earth-shattering roar loud enough to rupture eardrums.
When a sound reached its extreme, nothing could be heard at all.
In a silent stillness, the sky twisted and shook violently, the dark clouds shattered, the thunderbolts disintegrated, the electric light dispersed, and even the Void Realm seemed to be torn apart by the wildly scattering lightning!
“Ah! Ah!”
In an instant, a heart-wrenching scream came from within the terrifying lightning. Facing a terrifying blow like divine retribution, Wu Jue's entire body was charred black, lightning flashed around him, he twisted and roared in pain, completely powerless to resist, and crashed towards the ground.
Violent, destructive bolts of lightning surged into his limbs and bones, instantly crushing his True Qi protection, burning and tearing his tendons, bones, muscles, and internal organs, making him feel a long-lost, excruciating pain that even those with strong wills could not endure for a second.
Under the terrifying high temperature of the lightning, his body suffered unimaginable damage. His internal organs, tendons, bones, and muscles began to carbonize, while the twenty-thousand-volt high-voltage lightning continuously struck like a powerful magnet.
Even with a Martial Artist's strong Physique, with the continuous output of the Wrath of Thunder, exchanging time for damage, Wu Jue was numb!
Long-term high-voltage output was no joke; it caused devastating damage to his entire nervous system!
Wu Jue, falling to the ground, did not die on the spot.
Instead… …
An incredible scene unfolded!
Shen Bei could see that his body, which had been charred black an instant before, was restored to its original state by some mysterious force the next instant. This process cycled back and forth, filled with an extremely bizarre feeling!
“Still struggling?”
Shen Bei held up a single hand to the sky and suddenly brought it down.
Another Falling Thunder, carrying blood Qi and purple lightning, crashed down.
“Come! Show me your vigorous vitality!”
Shen Bei's words had just fallen.
The instant the thunder struck.
Wu Jue's voice was hoarse, and his bloodshot eyes revealed a wild, hysterical quality.
He was cornered, making a desperate counterattack like a trapped beast: “You won't live either!”
“Sword—Thirteen!”
“Open!”
