Deng Jun's aura surged, but he did not make a move.
He was waiting, waiting for the right moment.
"Boom~!"
The heavenly thunder descended, and at the same time, Deng Jun also struck.
Without the slightest hesitation, the Five Elements Yin Yang Seven Swords converged, and Deng Jun himself wielded the Thunder Sword to strike.
Lin Qianxuan unleashed the full force of the Power of the Great Dao within him, directly countering with a punch.
Under the blessing of the Sound of Destiny, this punch was comparable to the power the Immortal Monarchs exerted with their own Great Dao, displaying thousands of folds of Dao practice.
In an instant, the attacks of the two collided, Lin Qianxuan's power was obstructed and worn down, dissipating between life and death, unable to break through Deng Jun's seven immortal swords, and his power was continuously being devoured and obliterated.
This move, the [Great Five Elements Yin Yang Sword Momentum], was Deng Jun's supreme Great Divine Power, standing at the pinnacle of the Southeast Realm.
The seven Great Daos encompassed the Five Elements and Yin Yang of heaven and earth, with endless transformations.
Under this move, the defeated Immortal Monarchs were already in the double digits.
Lin Qianxuan's current Dao practice was able to contend against it, which was already beyond imagination.
Sizzle~!
At this moment, the heavenly thunder also fell on Lin Qianxuan.
Electric arcs flickered around his body, and his aura dropped for a moment.
It was at this moment that Deng Jun, holding the Thunder Sword, made his move.
This Thunder Sword was the last immortal sword crafted by Deng Jun, and also the mightiest one for slaughter.
Within it resided the Sword Thunder Great Dao, born purely for slaughter, wielding the power to annihilate all things in the world with celestial tribulations, yet lacking the transformative intent of tribulation thunders.
In the flash of lightning, a blood-red mark appeared on Lin Qianxuan's forehead.
Unstoppable, undefendable.
In the fate patterns he observed, this strike would definitely hit him no matter what.
His vitality was cut off, the information left in time and space was being erased, irreversible, unresistable.
This Great Dao Thunder was imprinted into time and space, and he could not contend with it.
In the void, infinite true thunder and profound light flashed, and in an instant, Lin Qianxuan's figure was worn out in the current time and space.
But the next moment, he reappeared in time and space, attempting to resurrect.
Deng Jun's Thunder Sword and the Five Elements Yin Yang Seven Divine Swords interplayed, Sword Qi pierced through time and space, precisely striking Lin Qianxuan, giving him no chance to resurrect.
Under such pressure, the [Evolutionary Body] exerted itself once more.
A new superpower was born.
[Sword Dao Defense].
A highly targeted superpower.
The Great Dao concept it possessed was to weaken the damage caused by Sword Dao attacks to oneself.
As long as you use a weapon called "sword," or your techniques and divine powers contain "sword" information, the damage will be significantly reduced.
Lin Qianxuan's space-time mass increased out of thin air, his life bar extended considerably, and Deng Jun's lethality was also reduced somewhat.
He should have been completely killed, but with this recovery, he lived.
The information carriers in time and space reappeared, and his Dao Body manifested once more.
His Qi and blood surged, and the light of the Great Dao shone, fully recovering in an instant.
Then, within him, infinite worlds of life and death, similarly spurred the Five Elements and Yin Yang to counter-strike.
"Rumble rumble rumble~!"
The thunderclouds perpetually amassed above the firmament dissipated, the fierce wind subsided, and the energy particles propelled by the aftermath erupted and spread, stretching far and wide.
Once everything settled, Lin Qianxuan stood calmly and with greater might, facing him was the solemn-faced Deng Jun.
"As the strongest Immortal Monarch in the Southeast Realm, your strength is adequate, but your character leaves much to be desired. You once ambushed my sister Jiang while she was undergoing tribulation, and now you're pulling the same trick on me. You call yourself a sword cultivator, but you are only a laughingstock." Lin Qianxuan mocked, then said to him, "I know you have one more Great Divine Power, and even though you've lost the Wind Sword, you can wield yourself as a sword. Hurry and use it, for if you wait for the next two celestial tribulations, you might just lose your chance."
Upon hearing Lin Qianxuan's words, Deng Jun's expression did not change much.
From the beginning of his cultivation, he fought his way up the ladder.
The Heavenly Dao is exactly like this, encouraging the strong to prey on the weak, survival of the fittest.
Only the Human Dao seeks to establish morality, civilization, to restrain the strong and protect the weak.
Whether it is ambush or bullying the weak, he will not change his ways.
His only regret is not having killed Lin Qianxuan earlier, allowing him to grow to such a level in a short time, becoming such a nuisance.
"Boom~!"
Blood-red heavenly thunder descended.
At the same time, Deng Jun made his move.
The Five Elements Sword, Yin Yang Sword, Thunder Sword, eight swords fused into one, with eight Great Dao powers complementing and counteracting each other, cyclically amplifying.
But most crucially, it was Deng Jun himself.
He fused these eight swords into himself, achieving Unity of Man and Sword, while simultaneously completing the final cycle, each Divine Wind Sword Qi manifesting.
Five Elements, Yin Yang, Thunder, Divine Wind.
A total of nine swords.
This top-tier Great Divine Power was the reason Deng Jun, with such Dao practice, stood among the top Immortal Monarchs of this world.
In Lin Qianxuan's eyes, golden light shone as he deciphered his opponent's Great Dao.
Within him, those trillion worlds began to evolve, within which countless Lin Qianxuans differentiated, consuming vast energy, each exhibiting different Great Dao Divine Powers, similarly including Five Elements, Yin Yang, Thunder, and Divine Wind, and even other Great Dao Divine Powers.
At this critical moment, Lin Qianxuan advanced once more.
Punch released, sword fell.
Silently, time and space had already twisted.
Their confrontation resulted in a stalemate, and indeed, Lin Qianxuan even had the upper hand.
Above the Nine Heavens, Tribulation Thunder descended, striking Lin Qianxuan, slightly weakening him with this attack.
But that's all it was.
Deng Jun was unable to rely on the support of this Heavenly Thunder to crush Lin Qianxuan; in fact, after a brief stalemate, Lin Qianxuan's momentum surged incomparably stronger.
The Sword Intent shattered, and the Great Dao upon it perished.
Deng Jun could not utter words of pleading, perhaps he was disdainful to even speak.
Ambush and oppressing the weak only represented his poor character.
But it certainly didn't mean he was afraid of death.
To cultivate to such a level surely required a heart of audacious pursuit.
Otherwise, the mere ordeal of becoming immortal would be insurmountable.
Lin Qianxuan's True Flame refined all of Deng Jun's heritage, absorbed it in its entirety, transforming it into his own resources.
At this moment, Lin Qianxuan stood beneath the thunderclouds like an undefeated War God.
Reminding many Immortal Monarchs of that once invincible figure in this realm.
However, the Draconic Head was not as ruthless as Lin Qianxuan.
Though feared in this realm, the actual Immortal Monarchs slain by the Draconic Head were but one.
Slew while in the Upper Dao Realm.
In the brief period of tribulation, Lin Qianxuan had already killed fifty Immortal Monarchs in less than an hour.
Apart from Emperor Jing who had acted before, none were spared.
The remaining Immortal Monarchs now pondered retreat.
But no one dared to be the first to flee.
Fearing Lin Qianxuan might set his sights on them.
Lin Qianxuan's gaze pierced the void, seeing through reality, pinpointing each form.
Finally, he focused on a form flashing with thunder.
This was the Immortal Monarch from the Nether Sea in the Northern Realm, named Kui Zun, whose Dao Practice reached nine hundred Heavy Heavens, possessing numerous Great Daos, of which eight were related to thunder, stronger even than Deng Jun.
During the previous arrival at the Saint Realm, it was he who attempted to blast Jiang Mengli.
"Junior, just one palm, didn't even scratch you!! If it truly came to blows, mutual destruction is inevitable, don't think there's none who can take you on!!!" Kui Zun spoke, fierce in appearance but timid inside.
Responding to him was Lin Qianxuan, suddenly appearing beside him, with a resounding fist striking down.
Kui Zun was shocked and angry, raising his hand for a palm attack.
The palm transformed into boundless thunder, its momentum fierce and domineering, a power to destroy heavens and earth.
In strength alone, it surpassed Deng Jun's Unity of Nine Swords Great Divine Power.
But not by much.
"Boom~!"
Punch and palm collided, the Power of Dao vanished.
Without pause, Lin Qianxuan struck again, seemingly with endless energy within, leaving Kui Zun terrified.
"Moo~!"
Kui Zun revealed his true form, a single-legged Kui Beast of colossal size.
With his roar, thunder filled the sky, storms raged, instantly resembling the end of the world.
"Ang~!"
Lin Qianxuan similarly revealed his dragon form, rapidly expanding until reaching a million lengths, stopping only when his body clashed with endless thunder, entwining Kui Zun's body, with dragon sinews and spine power surging, his Dragon Claw pierced the skin, tearing its flesh, shedding countless Immortal Blood.
Each drop of Immortal Blood falling was sufficient to create a Divine Sea, with energy enough to sustain countless mortals for thousands of years.
Kui Zun reeled in pain, his form crashing toward the ground.
"Rumble~!"
The earth's veins trembled, the crust cracked, the vast terrain ruined, as magma seeped downward, further down, the ghostly wind swept through, both continually delving into the depths, reaching the Land of the Nine Netherworld, buffeted by Nine Netherworld Yin Wind rivaling Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
Under the whip of Nine Netherworld Yin Wind, Lin Qianxuan's Scale Armor deteriorated, the divine glow surrounding him dimmed, but his health bar was long and endured.
Kui Zun, however, was far more vulnerable, his health bar compared to Lin Qianxuan was too short, unable to withstand.
With one rising and one declining, Lin Qianxuan quickly opened his mouth, countless True Flames enveloped Kui Zun, refining him into essence, ultimately devouring the True Flame, substantially increasing his Dao Practice.
"Boom~!"
Tribulation Thunder in the Nine Heavens pierced through realms, traversing time and space, directly entering the Nine Netherworld, targeting Lin Qianxuan, striking him.
Regardless of where he was, escaping the lesson was absolutely impossible.
Yet Lin Qianxuan had no intention of escaping lessons; being struck by thunder was already an easy task for him.
He charged out of the Nine Netherworld, heading straight for the sky, traversing hundreds of light years in an instant, returning to the realm outside the Saint Realm.
At this moment, no one dared to act.
Until the Tribulation Thunder completely ended, none of the Immortal Monarchs attempted an ambush or assault on Lin Qianxuan.
However, Lin Qianxuan did not relax, he was ready to run away with Jiang Mengli.
Because the strongest one had been watching all along from behind, yet did not make a move.
At this moment, that figure issued a query to Lin Qianxuan.
"Can you withstand another tribulation?"
"I can!" Lin Qianxuan replied.
There was nothing to hide about it.
"Then continue, once you've completed the tribulation, I'll face you."
Lin Qianxuan gave the opponent a deep look, without hesitation, he once again initiated the Thunder Tribulation.
The opponent hadn't acted from the start, so naturally, they wouldn't act now.
Since the opponent was so proud, why not give him a surprise?
