Chapter 234: Killing Move
Seeing that Lu Yun had indeed fallen for the trap, Su Yingxiu’s smile grew indifferent, and she said with a hint of mockery in her tone, “Young Master Lu, rest assured, a little Shadowless Incense from Miao territory will only temporarily weaken your strength. You will recover in an hour or so.”
“Despicable!” Lu Xin grunted, his face ashen. He finally understood that Su Yingxiu had deliberately perfumed herself to mask the scent of the sleeping incense. But his words held no deterrence for Su Yingxiu now. “What exactly do you want to do?!”
“I thought your Master was quite powerful, so I took you as a hostage just in case,” Su Yingxiu said, watching Lu Xian falter, and sneered coldly, “Who would have thought that the renowned Lu Xian would be such an overconfident fool.”
As if to confirm her words, Sun Yuanlang suddenly tucked his fingers into his palm, pressing his thumbs down on his index and middle fingers, forming a peculiar hand seal!
The moment Lu Yun saw the hand seal, his pupils contracted sharply. This was precisely the Heavenly Thunder Technique he had used to defeat Xiahou Bubai at West Lake!
However, its effect was vastly different when wielded by Sun Yuanlang!
Sun Yuanlang seemed possessed by the god of thunder, wind and thunder swirling around him, countless purple lightning bolts dancing at his fingertips!
“Supreme Three Heavens!” Sun Yuanlang roared, and the countless tiny purple lightning bolts instantly converged into a serpent of purple electricity as thick as an arm, which struck the circle drawn by Lu Xian with a crack!
The unyielding circle trembled and barely managed to block the Heavenly Thunder Technique that wielded the might of heaven and earth. But it was far from over. Sun Yuanlang’s hand seal changed, his second and third fingers forming a bow, his thumb pressing down on his fourth finger, and his fifth finger pressing down on his thumb! The lightning in his hand then turned into a heavy yellow bolt!
“Primordial Three Energies!” Sun Yuanlang roared again, and a bolt of yellow lightning struck Lu Xian’s transformation of circle into square. Lu Xian’s circle began to shake violently, showing signs of imminent collapse!
Seeing this, Lu Yun cried out in his heart, ‘Earth Thunder Technique!’
Lu Xian’s face turned pale, and he quickly drew countless squares with his hand-sword. These hundreds and thousands of squares merged layer by layer into the circle, and the precarious circle became whole and harmonious once more!
Sun Yuanlang’s hair and robes billowed without wind, and his feet were more than a foot off the ground. He changed his hand seal again, his second finger forming a bow, his thumb pressing down on the ‘chou’ position, his third, fourth, and fifth fingers pressing down, and his thumb hidden. White mist then enveloped him.
“Supreme Five Spirit Old Lord!” Sun Yuanlang chanted the true words again, and a milky white lightning bolt struck towards Lu Xian!
“Cloud Thunder Technique!” Lu Yun shouted frantically in his heart, and the Saintess could not help but exclaim, as if witnessing a celestial being!
Lu Xian also knew that he had reached the most perilous moment. He frantically drew countless squares with both hands, desperately reinforcing the circle in front of him!
With a deafening roar, the entire Control Room was engulfed in white light. Lu Yun and the Saintess were both affected by the fierce blast wave. Su Yingxiu quickly formed a hand seal, helping Lu Yun resist the impact of the wave!
Su Yingxiu let out a low hum and her delicate body trembled, seemingly suffering a slight internal injury. However, under her protection, Lu Yun was completely unharmed. Lu Yun looked at the Saintess, who was on the verge of spitting blood, with surprise, wondering why she had shielded him. But there was no time to inquire now, as he chillingly discovered that his Master’s circle had become incredibly thin, barely visible, and on the verge of collapse!
Sun Yuanlang, however, grew more courageous as the battle raged, pressing the advantage!
Sun Yuanlang’s hand seal changed again: his second, third, and fourth fingers formed a bow, his thumb pressed down on the ‘hai’ position, and his fifth finger pressed down, his thumb hidden. The lightning in his hand turned from white to blue!
“Summon the Three-Five Officers from within!” As Sun Yuanlang spoke the true words, a blue Divine Thunder, shrouded in mist, completely shattered Lu Xian’s circle!
‘Water Thunder Technique!’ Lu Yun’s face turned ashen, his hands trembling uncontrollably. He finally realized that Sun Yuanlang was not using the Heavenly Thunder Technique at all, but the Five Thunder Technique! The strongest killing move of Taoism, according to legend!
With the five thunders unleashed, heaven and earth would be destroyed!
So far, only the Heavenly, Earth, Cloud, and Water Thunders had been unleashed, so it was definitely not over!
As expected, Sun Yuanlang changed his hand seal for the fourth time: his second and third fingers, and his fourth and fifth fingers formed a bow, his thumb pressing down, with no visible knuckle. The lightning instantly turned pitch black, as if born from the abyss!
‘Demon Thunder Technique!’ Lu Yun’s eyes were bloodshot and spitting fire.
“Left and Right Official Envoys!” Sun Yuanlang roared with blood-red eyes, and the black lightning suddenly struck towards Lu Xian, who was now defenseless, engulfing him!
“Master!” Lu Yun cried out in anguish and lunged towards Lu Xian.
Before the black lightning could even dissipate, a dark shadow shot out from within like lightning, reaching Sun Yuanlang, who had unleashed the five thunders and was now like a retreating thief, in an instant.
At that moment, the person was lightning, and lightning was the person. Since no one could be faster than lightning, naturally, no one could keep up with that person’s speed!
Sun Yuanlang’s expression changed drastically upon seeing this, but he had no time to react as his chest, left wide open, was struck by a silent punch.
“My Dao is Great Central Supreme, penetrating the highest and the lowest, one with all!”
A voice containing the Supreme Principle of Heaven and Earth erupted from the shadowy figure, like boiling soup splashing snow, instantly sweeping away the Wind and Thunder filling the room…
“Great Central Supreme Fist!” Lu Yun shouted excitedly, his worries of before instantly turning into immense ecstasy!
“Master!” Now it was the Saintess’s turn to cry out in shock. She knew how formidable the Great Central Supreme Fist was; no matter how powerful the opponent’s True Qi, one direct hit would cause it to vanish, turning them into a powerless commoner!
Even with all her confidence in her Master, this was a punch prepared for a long time by a Heavenly Rank Grandmaster, condensing a lifetime of Cultivation!
“Good, good,” Sun Yuanlang remained standing still, seemingly unharmed, but his gaze towards Lu Xian was filled with admiration as he said, “You deliberately only used Drawing Square into Circle to neutralize my moves, just to make me anxious, making me mistakenly believe you only had this one move to counter me, right?”
Lu Xian’s body was blackened, his hair curled, and he stood there swaying precariously. The situation looked terrible. He nodded with difficulty, seemingly without the strength to even speak.
“When I become restless and impatient, abandon defense, and attack with all my might, your opportunity to achieve a decisive victory will arrive.” Sun Yuanlang’s admiration grew, “I never expected you to have cultivated the Xie Clan’s Five Virtues Five Elements Technique, allowing you to draw my lightning techniques into your body and use them for your own benefit. Then, with the momentum of the thunder, you struck this punch that I couldn’t dodge.”
Lu Xian nodded again, simultaneously desperately mobilizing all his True Essence to devour the black lightning bolts rampaging through his Meridians. Although these snake-like arcs of electricity were incredibly powerful, they had lost Sun Yuanlang’s control and therefore posed no threat to a Grandmaster like Lu Xian. He only needed half an Hour to use his own True Essence to largely neutralize them and recover his ability to fight.
“Unfortunately, despite your painstaking efforts, this has only resulted in a situation where both sides are injured.” Sun Yuanlang could still laugh, “Moreover, your Great Central Supreme Fist will at most make my True Essence disappear for the duration of a meal. You will likely need more time to recover, won’t you?”
“The duration of a meal is enough…” Lu Xian finally spoke. He shifted his gaze to Lu Yun and commanded, “Kill this Demonic Daoist who has offended our clan!” With that, he gave Sun Yuanlang a mocking glance and laughed heartily, for this was his true trump card!
Lu Xian was not worried about his recovery time being longer than Sun Yuanlang’s, because Sun Yuanlang had never anticipated that Lu Yun possessed Strength far exceeding that of an ordinary Earth Rank Grandmaster!
“Do you think you’re the only one with a disciple?” Sun Yuanlang sneered. Su Yingxiu had already flashed forward to block in front of him.
“Young Master Lu, having been struck by my Shadowless Incense, you shouldn’t force yourself, should you?” Su Yingxiu looked at Lu Yun with a smile, but she dared not let her guard down, fearing that this cunning young man would pull some unexpected trick.
