Chapter 314: Decisive Battle (Part 4)

Jinling.

Above the Gu Family, Chen Che and Gu Yuanzong hovered in mid-air, confronting each other from a distance.

Chen Che took a deep breath; his body was completely enveloped by electric currents, as if he had merged into one with the lightning in the sky, and his eyes were like two blue stars, flickering with electric light.

Streaks of blinding electric light connected him like silk threads to the Thunder Dragon in the sky above his head.

The dragon's head poked out from the cloud curtain, circling around Chen Che; its sharp claws and teeth and scales flickering with electric light were revealed one by one, and those two eyes, like scorching suns, released a radiance that made one dare not look directly at them.

"ROAR!!!"

The Thunder Dragon circled in the air, emitting a heaven-shaking dragon roar, its voice filled with power and majesty.

Every time it twisted its massive body, it was accompanied by the flashing of electric light, as if even the air were trembling under its pressure.

Gazing at that dragon, which could be called a Divine Miracle, Gu Yuanzong gritted his teeth, his face filled with unwillingness and anger: "I don't care what tricks you've played; in any case, I will not believe that someone as young as you is at the Heavenly Master Realm, which is enough to surpass the ancients!"

"I have now become a god; since you dare to provoke the authority of a god, then I will surely tear you into ten thousand pieces!!!!"

Gu Yuanzong roared wildly at the sky. Facing the approaching Thunder Dragon, the flowing radiance on his body suddenly dissipated, turning instead to release an even more intense blood-colored light; these blood-colored lights gradually formed a huge blood-colored vortex around him.

His body was shrouded in a layer of dark red blood Qi; this blood Qi was like a living thing, flowing slowly around his body and emitting a heart-palpitating sense of oppression.

He pressed his palms together, then pushed them outward violently, and a huge blood-colored palm rushed out from the vortex, heading straight for the clouds.

This Blood Qi Giant Hand was incomparably huge, covered with thick blood-colored scales, and every scale seemed to contain endless power.

Its five fingers were like five mountain peaks, and every swing carried the sound of tearing through the air; the surrounding air was compressed until it emitted a sharp whistling sound.

"A technique condensed from the blood Qi of others and your own; it seems this is your final strike. What? Having witnessed the true Heavenly Master Realm, has your mentality collapsed?"

Chen Che laughed loudly, his laughter filled with provocative mockery.

Gu Yuanzong's cheeks twitched, and the panic and unwillingness in his heart proved to him once again that he was still a mortal.

And although Chen Che was not a god either, when combined with his age and the mysterious and powerful strength and potential he had displayed...

Gu Yuanzong was unconvinced, and he did not believe it!

Since he could not become a god, then no one else should even think about it—at least, Chen Che absolutely could not!

"My father and Su Xiao, as well as the series of things the Gu Family has done under the banner of the Martial Arts Alliance... let's settle the new grudges and old debts all at once!"

Chen Che shouted loudly and launched the attack first.

He raised his hands high, and the clouds in the sky gathered rapidly, forming a huge vortex. Streaks of lightning darted out from the clouds like silver snakes, striking directly at Gu Yuanzong, who was wrapped in blood Qi.

Gu Yuanzong was unhurried; the blood Qi on his body dispersed and condensed, transforming into small flying swords that shot toward Chen Che in a volley.

Seeing this, a cold sneer hooked the corners of Chen Che's mouth, and his body was suddenly completely surrounded by arcs of electricity, his entire person seemingly transforming into the embodiment of lightning.

He stepped on the void and leaped violently, charging directly at Gu Yuanzong with a speed so fast that his figure could barely be captured.

Gu Yuanzong snorted coldly, and his Blood Qi Giant Hand split rapidly, transforming into countless blood-colored tentacles that attacked Chen Che.

These tentacles were incomparably flexible, like giant blood-colored pythons dancing in the air, attempting to entangle Chen Che.

Chen Che dodged the attacks of the blood-colored tentacles flexibly in the air, his hands waving continuously; every swing was accompanied by arcs of electricity, beating back the approaching blood-colored tentacles.

His speed became faster and faster, eventually turning into a streak of electric light that pierced directly through the encirclement of the blood-colored tentacles.

Just at this moment, Chen Che pressed his hands together, and a huge electric ball formed in his palms, which he then pushed forward violently.

The electric ball expanded rapidly in the air, transforming into a destructive lightning shockwave that struck directly at Gu Yuanzong's face.

Gu Yuanzong's expression froze; the blood-colored light in his eyes flared, and his hands rapidly formed seals, the surrounding blood Qi gathering quickly to form a huge blood-colored barrier.

The lightning shockwave collided with the blood-colored barrier, emitting an earth-shattering explosion; the entire city seemed to be trembling.

The power of the two reached its peak at this moment, with lightning and blood Qi intertwining in the night sky to form a heart-shaking scene.

Eventually, Chen Che's lightning shockwave gradually gained the upper hand; the blood-colored barrier began to show cracks and finally shattered with a loud bang.

Gu Yuanzong was struck by the shockwave, his entire person flying backward like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily to the ground.

He stood up with difficulty and looked at Chen Che, a trace of unwillingness flashing in his eyes.

Chen Che was still hovering in the air, his body still surrounded by electric currents, his gaze firm and calm.

"ROAR!!!"

The Thunder Dragon, which had been circling in the sky waiting for an opportunity, finally emitted an earth-shattering roar at this moment.

Without needing Chen Che to give the order, the Thunder Dragon swooped down toward Gu Yuanzong, carrying ten thousand kinds of might and oppression, causing the heavens and earth to change color.

Gu Yuanzong stood up to meet the battle, yet the ground shook and cracked, and Gu Yuanzong stumbled as his feet sank in.

Before he could even respond, one wooden spike after another shot out from the ground, piercing his flesh and pinning Gu Yuanzong in place.

"AH!!!!"

The pressure of the thunder dragon overhead drew closer and closer; Gu Yuanzong roared wildly like a beast trapped in a desperate situation, recklessly releasing all of his power.

The wooden spikes shattered, and his feet were pulled out of the ground.

Unable to care for his bruised and battered body, Gu Yuanzong quickly formed seals with his hands, and the Blood Qi Giant Hand was born again, growing toward the sky!

"BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!"

The Thunder Dragon and the Blood Qi Giant Hand met and collided in the air, emitting a deafening roar. Blood Qi and electric currents intertwined, forming a strange and spectacular scene.

The Thunder Dragon circled above the Blood Qi Giant Hand with lightning speed; its claws, teeth, and scales collided with the scales of the Blood Qi Giant Hand, emitting the sound of electrode counter-strikes and metallic impacts, with electric sparks and blood mist interweaving to form a heart-shaking scene.

The Blood Qi Giant Hand displayed astonishing power, resisting the impact of the Thunder Dragon; its five fingers gripped the Thunder Dragon's body tightly, attempting to suppress it.

The power of the two collided in the air, producing huge energy fluctuations that caused the surrounding space to distort.

The Thunder Dragon did not show weakness, emitting a heaven-shaking dragon roar; the electric light all over its body erupted instantly, forming nets of electric light in an attempt to bind the Blood Qi Giant Hand.

And the Blood Qi Giant Hand responded with even more violent power; its five fingers became even larger, and every swing carried the momentum to destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth.

The stalemate lasted only for an instant, yet it felt as if many years had passed.

Finally.

In an ultimate explosion of power, the forces of the Thunder Dragon and the Blood Qi Giant Hand canceled each other out; after an explosion that shook the heavens and earth, both dissipated in the air simultaneously, leaving only ripples echoing across the battlefield.
