Chapter 1961: Departure
Translator: Legge
The Perfected Immortal who escaped did not manage to run far when he felt the crackling of thunder behind him. It arrived instantly at a shocking speed!
No matter how fast the old man was, he could not match the speed of the Thunder Emperor.
“Feng Cantian!”
When the Perfected Immortal old man saw that he could not escape, he stopped in his tracks and shouted with a tragic expression, “You’ve gone too far!”
“I went too far?”
!!The Thunder Emperor sneered, “Compared to your methods, it’s already benevolent of me to kill you.”
King Tianxing imprisoned the Thunder Emperor in a dungeon beneath Absolute Thunder City for hundreds of thousands of years. Furthermore, he locked the latter with chains and nailed the latter to a stone pillar with his saber.
The amount of physical, mental and psychological torture was unimaginable!
Death was nothing compared to that.
“Feng Cantian, I’ll fight you to the death!”
The Perfected Immortal old man’s eyes widened and a resplendent glow burst forth from his glabella as a shuddering aura spread.
“You want to self-destruct your Dao Fruit?”
The Thunder Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly.
The power of a Dao Fruit’s self-destruction was unparalleled.
However, if the Dao Fruit self-destructed, one might not even have the chance to reincarnate.
Therefore, generally speaking, Perfected Immortal experts who had cultivated to a certain realm would not choose this path.
But now, the Perfected Immortal old man had already fallen into madness and was completely disregarding everything in order to fight the Thunder Emperor.
“You won’t even have the chance to self-destruct in front of me!”
The Thunder Emperor harrumphed coldly and suddenly opened his mouth, releasing a deafening thunderclap!
Poof!
The sound of thunder pierced the Perfected Immortal old man’s eardrums.
Two streams of blood spewed from his ears.
The sound of thunder was like a gigantic spear that pierced through his ears and head!
The Perfected Immortal old man felt his mind go blank and his body shuddered.
His Dao Fruit was already shattered. However, it was severely injured by the Thunder Emperor’s sound domain secret skill and he froze on the spot with a dazed gaze.
The Thunder Emperor advanced and stabbed him to death casually!
The battle did not last long and of the 11 Perfected Immortal experts, only Perfected Immortal Jing Yue was left!
The cultivators that escaped from the city turned back.
The Thunder Emperor stood on the ruins of Absolute Thunder City with the corpses of ten Perfected Immortals beneath his feet. Wielding the Startling Evil Spear, he stood proudly with a peerless bearing!
This city had suppressed and imprisoned the Thunder Emperor for hundreds of thousands of years.
But now that the Thunder Emperor had escaped, he overturned Absolute Thunder City and trampled it beneath his feet!
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue stood on the ruins as well and did not choose to escape.
He knew that given the Thunder Emperor’s capabilities, there was no way he could escape even if he wanted to!
Suddenly!
The Thunder Emperor clutched his chest and coughed heavily.
His body convulsed violently and his face was pale, as though something had happened to his body.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s gaze shifted.
The clothes on the Thunder Emperor’s chest were stained red and it was extremely striking!
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue clearly remembered that they did not manage to hit the Thunder Emperor’s chest when they surrounded him earlier on.
Furthermore, even if they had injured the Thunder Emperor previously, the latter had already recovered after obtaining the Startling Evil Spear to connect with the power of thunder in the world.
That smear of blood…
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s heart skipped a beat and he quickly understood the reason.
The Execution Saber!
The wound on the Thunder Emperor’s chest should have been left behind by the Execution Saber!
The Execution Saber was King Tianxing’s Grotto-heaven Spirit Treasure and the Thunder Emperor was pinned to the stone pillar for hundreds of thousands of years. Even with the Thunder Emperor’s capabilities, it was difficult to heal from those injuries!
The Thunder Emperor broke free and suppressed the wound the entire time.
However, the battle earlier on triggered the wound and caused it to relapse, causing blood to seep out!
In that short period of time, the Thunder Emperor’s robes were already stained with blood—it was clear how serious his injuries were!
When Su Zimo saw that, he was worried for the Thunder Emperor as well.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue was not far away. His gaze flickered and his expression changed, as though he wanted to attack but was wary of something.
After a long silence, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue moved. He did not attack the Thunder Emperor. Instead, he retreated and distanced himself from the latter.
He did not know if the Thunder Emperor’s current appearance was a disguise.
More than that, he did not know how much the wound on the Thunder Emperor’s chest affected him.
He did not dare to take the risk.
Even though the Thunder Emperor before him seemed extremely weak, he did not dare to advance and seized the opportunity to escape!
“Fufufufu!”
When he saw that, the Thunder Emperor laughed with a mocking expression. “How can a cowardly rat be a County Governor?”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue remained silent and watched the Thunder Emperor’s every move warily.
“Forget it, I’ll spare your life today,”
The Thunder Emperor said indifferently, “Go back and tell Tianxing that I, Feng Cantian, have returned. Get them to prepare their necks for my personal visit!”
With that said, lightning flashed on the Thunder Emperor’s body as he carried his Startling Evil Spear and sped into the distance.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue had a conflicted expression as he clenched and unclenched his fists a few times.
In the end, he did not chase in pursuit.
Su Zimo noticed that and shook his head.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue had lost the final chance to retain the Thunder Emperor.
Given the Thunder Emperor’s character, he was extremely heroic and would not bother to fake serious injuries just to lure Perfected Immortal Jing Yue out.
Finally, the Thunder Emperor left directly. This also meant that the injuries on the Thunder Emperor’s chest were extremely serious and it was even difficult for him to kill Perfected Immortal Jing Yue!
That was also the reason why the Thunder Emperor chose to leave.
However, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue was shocked by the Thunder Emperor’s aura and methods. He did not dare to attack even as he saw the Thunder Emperor’s figure gradually disappear.
At that moment, Su Zimo finally understood.
It was something that the Thunder Emperor had said to him in the Ten Absolute Hell.
“Absolute Thunder City will be in chaos soon and I won’t be able to take care of you. Be careful and leave in the chaos.”
The Thunder Emperor must have expected this battle in Absolute Thunder City.
He knew his body’s condition as well.
If he brought Su Zimo along, there was a high chance that neither of them would be able to escape!
At that time, Su Zimo would also become the target of everyone and be hunted down by the factions of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom.
But now, the Thunder Emperor wanted to help Su Zimo hide.
Furthermore, Su Zimo had been extremely cautious in the Ten Absolute Hell and no one knew who helped the Thunder Emperor escape!
After the Thunder Emperor escaped, Su Zimo successfully hid himself and escaped from the Ten Absolute Hell.
However, the Thunder Emperor’s injuries…
Su Zimo sighed internally.
The battle affected the Thunder Emperor’s old injuries.
At that time, the Thunder Emperor might have to face the pursuit of the Immortal Kings and it was unknown if he could truly escape danger.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue was right about one thing.
The current Divine Firmament was no longer the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain hundreds of thousands of years ago.
Although the Thunder Emperor escaped from the Ten Absolute Hell, he won’t be able to advance a single step in the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and every single step forward would be treacherous!
It was almost foreseeable that a violent commotion might break out in the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom or even the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain!
Su Zimo was prepared to leave this place and find a quiet and secluded place to cultivate the Void Thunder Manual in seclusion for a period of time to avoid this storm.
