Chapter 942: Glimpse Of Upheaval
~THUD~ THUD ~THUD~
One by one, more of the bones retreated into the ground, revealing the body of the Calamity Fiend.
“You really forced me into a shell huh…” The Calamity Fiend spoke, a hint of anger in its voice.
“I’m more surprised you’re still alive.” Lin Wu said raising his tail once more.
“Of course, I’ll live a few million years more than you.” The Calamity Fiend sprang forth opening its mouth wide.
A strange yellow ball of energy condensed within it, and the spirit Qi within the area shook.
“You can try.” Lin Wu didn’t stay in ceremony and met the Calamity Fiend’s attack with his own.
~CLANG~ BANG~
Lin Wu’s tail struck the head of the Calamity Fiend, striking against its hard scales. It felt like one was striking a steel plate and no damage could be seen on it. But at the same time, the attack had did enough to divert the yellow energy ball to the sky.
~SHUA~
The yellow energy ball missed its target and rose into the sky. After reaching a height of about two kilometers though, it exploded.
~SPLAT~
But the explosion was rather strange. Instead of a loud sound, it felt like someone had burst apart a balloon full of mud.
The yellow ball of energy burst apart, shooting small globules of yellow energy. This yellow energy rained down on the ground, staining it before a hardening.
It also landed on the barrier that was protecting Shirong and the rest.
“What is that?” They looked at the yellow globules.
“This… isn’t this the Petrifying Ability of the Mud Rain Bandicoot?” Wang Xiong recognized.
“That can’t be it. The Mud Rain Bandicoot’s ability works differently. It covers its foes with mud that hardens into stone. It’s not like this.” Someone else spoke.
“Unless, the Calamity Fiend changed it?” Patriarch Bing said with dread.
~Gasp~
“That is not something simple. For that to happen… how would one even do that?” The Long Clan elders were confused too.
The Mud Rain Bandicoot was actually a Dao Treading realm beast that resided in the southern part of the Long Continent.
It was generally docile and as long as no one intruded on its territory, there was no danger from it. But if someone really dared to do it, the Mud Rain Bandicoot would simply rain down mud from the sky, covering all the intruders with it.
The mud with turn to stone, forever locking away the intruders within it.
This gave the land belonging to the Mud Rain Bandicoot an eerie name.
The Land of thousand statues.
Even the people of the top sects didn’t dare to enter that area and kept away from it. But seeing this ability land in the grasp of the Calamity Fiend left a bad taste in their mouths.
‘Consuming the Mud Rain Bandicoot actually allowed the Slime Generation to progress further. Now I can actually make petrifying slime too.’ Lin Wu thought, feeling pleased with the Avatar’s abilities.
There were a lot of skills that had been left in its store that it never got to use. And now that the opportunity had come today, Lin Wu wanted to test out as many skills as he could. This was for both the main body as well as the avatar.
~BOOM~
~THUD~
~BANG~
The Calamity Fiend and Lin Wu kept on tussling. Their bodies directly clashed, and wrapped, trying to hurt each other.
The Calamity Fiend sprouted spikes on its body, while Lin Wu countered it with his tough crystals.
~SHUA~
Fiery breaths were spat out by both the beings, pushing them back.
~BOOM~
The two fire breaths, one yellow one crimson, created a fiery explosion that directly melted the rocks and soil in the area.
Lin Wu flew up into the sky and controlled the dark clouds.
~RUMBLE~
Arcs of purple lightning streaked thorough the sky while Lin Wu’s emerald body swam though it.
“Marvelous…” Was all Shirong could say observing the scene.
The lightning spirit Qi in the skies started to gather around Lin Wu while the sound of thunderclaps ran non stop.
Everyone felt like the god of skies had appeared, about to rain down his punishment.
~RUMBLE~
Finally, it seemed like enough power had been gathered, as the clouds rang loudly.
~BOOM~
Then a thick bolt of lightning fell down, targeting the Calamity Fiend.
“Heavens! This is even stronger than tribulation lightning!”
They could see that the lightning bolt was very thick, being nearly ten meters wide. Rather than a bolt, it was more accurate to call it a pillar of lightning instead.
And not just that, they could also see that it was using the Dao Traces of Lightning too. This took its power to an entirely new level.
~SCREECH~
The massive attack struck the Calamity Fiend, making it screech out in pain. Everyone felt their hairs stand on the ends, due to the sheer amount of static in the air.
~spark~
~Crackle~
Stray streaks of electricity spread across the ground too, unable to be fully absorbed by the earth. This was a sign that it had reached a level above natural lightning.
After all, natural lightning would be quickly absorbed into the earth and disappear. Only lightning that had the traces of Dao within it would be able to resist such natural laws.
The pillar of lightning could be seen for hundreds of kilometer and the might of the power was felt by every strong cultivator in the Long Continent.
Those at the Dao Shell realm felt their skin prickle, while those in the Dao Treading realm felt like the spirit Qi within the sky was shifting.
As for those in the Immortal Ascension realm?
They could directly see the Dao Traces in the atmosphere turning chaotic.
In the most secure area of the Long Clan, a pair of elders were looking at the sky.
“What kind of upheaval is this?”
“It’s coming from the area of the Cang Lan sect…”
They recognized.
“Looks like we can’t stay passive anymore…”
