Chapter 646: Thunder God's Spear

Superlative Element Thunder God's Spear!

This is the bodily element Lei En shared from Asina, an exclusive ultimate skill of the Storm Giant, derived from the Eight-Ring Spell "Lightning Javelin", attaching thunder's power to a metal spear and hurling it, combining physical attack and energy damage; the greater the force, the stronger the might, and in the Second Era many Titan Giants relied on the Thunder God's Spear to slay dragons.

After he mastered the Thunder God's Spear, he only tried it a few times and has not actually used it in combat yet.

The current Thunder God's Spear is at level two, with its throwing power doubled.

But Lei En feels it is still insufficient.

While battling the three opponents, he manipulates the phone interface, releasing the electric charge from his soul pool into the Thunder God's Spear; the progress bar beneath the abstract spear icon in his hand rockets forward, and within seconds it rises to level three.

Advancing the Thunder God's Spear from level two to three consumes over a hundred units of electric charge.

He does not stop, continuing to invest.

Level three… level four… level five!

The Thunder God's Spear climbs three levels within half a minute, consuming over four hundred units of electric charge in total; upon reaching level five, the charge required for further upgrade suddenly spikes, needing at least six hundred units to reach level six, so it must halt.

The remaining charge is sufficient and continues to absorb Demon souls, but it must be used elsewhere.

Lei En looks at the second element, Wind‑Thunder Wings.

It is one of his most frequently used augment spells, capable of greatly increasing speed, but it is only five‑ring and did not take effect in this battle.

The Breaker's anti‑magic field is seven‑ring, able to suppress spells below seven‑ring.

As long as the Wind‑Thunder Wings are raised to seven‑ring, they become usable.

The soul pool releases electric charge again.

Half a minute later, Lei En uses over three hundred units of charge to raise the Wind‑Thunder Wings to seven‑ring, advancing them to a Superlative Element. Unfortunately, the highest spell a Legendary Mid‑stage can master is seven‑ring; otherwise he would have continued to eight‑ring to make his speed even faster.

The charge still has over five hundred units left, and it is rising explosively each second.

From the Mirror Image side, they see Demon Lord Sha Helaisi slowly approaching the Abyssal Gate, apparently observing the situation in the Prime Material Plane; its gaze sweeps over their own and Viola's angels, finally landing on the two squads of Extreme Warriors, its uncanny eyes filled with astonishment.

It cannot yet pass through the Abyssal Gate, needing at least another two minutes.

But it certainly cannot be delayed until the last moment.

Lei En knows this, continues allocating charge, and within a minute upgrades Space‑Time Shock and Light Burst from five‑ring to seven‑ring, and also raises Rainbow Light Cloak, Magic Burst Force Field, and Electric Claw from six‑ring to seven‑ring.

Seven‑ring spells can avoid absolute suppression by the anti‑magic field.

The spell effects will be somewhat weakened, but they are no longer completely nullified.

Unfortunately, the ceiling for Space‑Time Shock, Light Burst, and Electric Claw is seven‑ring, so they cannot be further enhanced with charge.

Altogether more than sixteen hundred units of charge were consumed; the soul pool hit bottom and then rose rapidly again, but Lei En does not wait any longer and decides to end it all.

In front of the Abyssal Gate.

Lei En's eight Mirror Images suddenly cease blocking the demon army, transforming into lightning and departing—not toward Lei En's body but soaring upward; when Electric Flash Teleport ends, they are already hundreds of meters high, still not stopping, continuing to vibrate their mithril double wings toward higher altitudes.

A few seconds later, the Mirror Images fly beyond the spatial blockade and the advanced sound‑light barrier, glancing around.

The sun has risen from the eastern horizon.

Bathed in dawn light, the eight Mirror Images' massive wings reflect silvery brilliance, sparkling brightly.

One Mirror Image produces a Nebula Ring, which Lei En had just handed over in the villa ruins. Any wizard with sufficient wealth carries a batch of alchemical materials, including the most common magical metals.

Lei En's Nebula Ring stores a huge amount of material; just refined gold alone weighs over ten thousand pounds.

The Mirror Image takes out a massive refined gold ingot, weighing over two thousand pounds.

The hard, heavy refined gold quickly softens in the Mirror Image's hands, split evenly into eight pieces and tossed to the other seven Mirror Images; each Mirror Image activates "Activated Metal", grabs both ends of the refined gold and pulls hard, forming a rough refined gold spear.

They grasp the refined gold spears, augment them with the newly upgraded seven‑ring Wind‑Thunder Wings, then instantly reverse direction, head down, feet up, diving vertically toward the ground at high speed.

The mithril flight wings vibrate rapidly, using the downward momentum to accelerate.

Simultaneously, the refined gold spear in hand also transforms: the straight shaft extends to about two meters, as thick as a forearm, with a spearhead nearly half a meter long, triangular, edges razor‑sharp, the tip flashing with a keen icy glint.

The Mirror Images' flight speed is already extreme; after diving several hundred meters, massive currents of electricity erupt across their bodies, converging toward the arms and wildly surging into the refined gold spears.

The dark‑gold spear gradually glows, becoming brighter and brighter, as if forged from condensed lightning.

Lightning flashes and thunder roars in the sky.

Each Mirror Image is surrounded by a lightning storm, howling winds; their massive bodies over three meters tall emit dazzling electric light, brighter than the newly risen sun.

From the ground it looks like eight meteors falling.

This scene was seen by many on Nuosiruier's east side, who cast astonished glances, but it lasted only a second or two before vanishing into thin air; the Mirror Images re‑enter the sound‑light barrier's range, yet had already attracted the attention of some supernal beings.

The eight Mirror Images reappear in the sky, thunder booming overhead.

In the battle, the Bimon Priest, Heroic Spirit Fighter, and Breaker notice the anomaly; the Breaker quickly looks up, his expression changing dramatically.

"Not good!"

Just by seeing the spectacle caused by the Mirror Images' descent, one knows it is certainly not a good sign.

The Breaker sees the Mirror Images' electric‑light radiating refined gold spears, instantly realizes how they will attack, and shouts, "We retreat!"

The Bimon Priest and Heroic Spirit Fighter are still locked in a grueling struggle with Lei En, with no chance to look up, yet they also sense the extreme danger.

At the Breaker's call, they immediately prepare to retreat without hesitation.

According to the prior plan, the employer will send two Legendary High‑rank wizards to assist covertly, one of whom is an Arcane Mage responsible for maintaining the spatial blockade; if the situation turns unfavorable, that Arcane Mage will teleport the three of them away.

The Mind Link lets them communicate without words, reaching consensus in an instant.

The Breaker pulls out a rune gem to send the retreat signal.

Suddenly, a beam shoots out from a hidden corner behind the manor; the beam is only finger‑thick, transparent and clear, faint yet seemingly powerless, but it easily pierces the spatial blockade enveloping the entire manor, emitting a crackling sound.

The hundreds‑of‑meters‑long transparent beam continues forward, striking the outer layer of the advanced sound‑light barrier; after the light twists, the barrier is also broken.

"Tim Kainen Disintegrate!"

The three besieging Lei En are all shocked pale.

The famed Disintegrate can dispel various magical effects, buffs, protective spells, and magical items, and can also break anti‑magic fields.

Anti‑magic fields are the bane of casters, while Disintegrate is the bane of anti‑magic fields.

There are actually many ways to break an anti‑magic field, but the Disintegration Technique is the most direct and also the most effective.

What they didn't understand, however, was why the opponent didn't break the anti‑magic field but instead broke the spatial seal and the sound‑light barrier.

In the next second they understood.

The Spellbreaker pressed the rune gem but got no response; the Arcane mage maintaining the spatial seal was back‑fired by the Disintegration Technique and could not teleport away.

Lei En would rather endure the suppression of the anti‑magic field than let any enemy escape.

"Scatter!"

"We each run for our lives."

"Immediately cut the soul link…"

The three voices rang in their minds simultaneously, tangled together by panic, and they also had to face the massive pressure Lei En applied, especially the beastman Ke Ge Lu, who had died once; the huge stamina drain left his mind in chaos, slowing his reaction by half a beat.

Lei En keenly seized the chance, his body swelling to five meters as he hurled a war hammer at the beastman with all his might.

"Careful!"

The Heroic Spirit Warrior was forced to turn around, slashing with a sword at the Thunder Hammer.

He had no friendship with the beastman or the Spellbreaker, and hadn't met them before, but he fully understood the principle that when the lips are gone, the teeth feel the cold; if Ke Ge Lu were killed, only he and the Spellbreaker would have little chance of escaping.

With a clang, the war hammer was deflected by a deep‑blue greatsword, skimming past the beastman's head.

At that moment the beastman came to his senses.

The three's retreat was delayed, their hearts shouting "bad luck", yet after Lei En threw the war hammer he did not chase, standing still, raising a hand and pointing toward himself.

Bang!

A burst rang out, a fierce white light exploded before their eyes, filling the three's field of view.

Seven‑ring Light Explosion Technique!

Legendary High‑rank strongmen have extremely high resistance to blinding effects; even when they cannot see, they do not flail like headless flies and can continue fighting through other senses, but the Light Explosion Technique not only blinds, it also delivers a violent explosive shockwave.

The three were blown apart by the light wave, scattering in different directions.

Lei En suddenly cast a spell within the anti‑magic field, causing them great astonishment, and what they could not comprehend even more was that Lei En vanished.

There was no trace of Lei En in the sensing, as if he never existed.

At that moment, eight Mirror Images descended from the sky; although each Mirror Image possessed only half the power of its original, it was still comparable to Legendary strength, and aided by high‑speed descent, each Mirror Image unleashed unimaginable force, locking onto a target and hurling a refined‑golden spear.

Rumble!

A series of thunderclaps ripped across the sky.

The sound‑light barrier had been broken; residents near the manor heard deafening thunder, and the sky suddenly burst with bright light.

People looked up at the heavens and saw massive bolts of lightning cleaving the sky; the intense brightness made the surroundings dim, as if night had returned.

Light and darkness flickered violently, resembling the scene of the Thunder God descending to the mortal realm.

The three‑hundred‑pound refined‑golden spears turned into a flash of light, faster than real lightning, their trajectories impossible to track even with the eye, and in the next instant they struck the ground.

Level‑5 Thunder God's Spear unleashed five times its power.

Each refined‑golden spear was imbued with lightning and thunder‑flame, its power comparable to the Eight‑Ring Spell, and amplified by terrifying speed; the airflow generated by friction with the air carried dreadful destructive force. Weight, speed, and thunder—three effects stacked together—already rival the potency of a Nine‑ring single‑target Technique!

Eight refined‑golden spears, eight Nine‑ring Techniques!

Lei En obtained the "Precision" Element from the Bronze Giant's demon soul, and the Thunder God's Spear also carries a targeting effect; when throwing the spear within several hundred meters, it is almost impossible to miss.

Four spears were hurled at the Spellbreaker.

Bi Meng Priest and the Heroic Spirit Warrior each received two.

The three were blown into the air by the Light Explosion Technique, stranded in mid‑air with no escape, the speed of the Thunder God's Spear so fast they could not react.

The instant they heard the next thunderclap in the sky, they were already struck by the refined‑golden spears.

Boom!

The eight Mirror Images did not fire in a chaotic barrage, but launched in batches with slight temporal delays.

The first refined‑golden spear hit first, its target the Spellbreaker Na Su Er.

The spear entered his anti‑magic field; the lightning coiled around the spear was partially suppressed, reducing its power slightly, yet it still pierced his kite‑shaped shield as easily as stabbing through paper, driving through the shielded body and pinning him to the ground.

The Spellbreaker spewed blood from his mouth, and the soul link transferred the damage to the other two, preventing him from dying on the spot.

But it also caused the Bi Meng Priest and the Heroic Spirit Warrior to suffer severe injuries, their breaths growing weak.

Then the second batch of refined‑golden spears arrived.

Three spears all shot at the Spellbreaker; he lay on the ground utterly helpless, unable to move a single limb, his head was blown apart, his body shattered into fragments, the thunder‑flame on the spears burst forth, instantly scorching flesh and blood to charcoal.

When the Spellbreaker died, the anti‑magic field vanished, and the Thunder God's Spear's power began to truly manifest.

The remaining four refined‑golden spears followed in quick succession, each striking one of the two survivors.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom…

Like a meteor striking the ground, the spears generated a massive explosion the instant they hit their targets.

The ground shook violently, the refined‑golden spears vaporized instantly, countless lightning and thunder‑flame were released, the high‑temperature and electric current formed a shockwave that swept the surroundings; the manor, already half collapsed, trembled on the brink of ruin, and a radius of several miles felt the strong tremor.

Such a terrifying attack could not be withstood by Ke Ge Lu's iron body nor the Heroic Spirit Warrior's fighting spirit.

Moreover, they were entangled by the soul link and already severely wounded.

The explosion quickly subsided, and the area where the three stood was littered with pits; charred armor fragments and severed limbs were scattered everywhere, the "Blood Roar" great axe and the deep‑blue greatsword were among the few intact items, and the bodies of the three legendary strongmen could not be found.

A rumble.

Near the ground bombarded by the Thunder God's Spear, the void suddenly cracked, and a black figure, as if struck hard by something, fell out involuntarily.

It was the battle Wizard hidden in the void.

A deep hammer‑shaped dent scarred his back, his injuries were severe, his body was wrapped in arcs of electricity, his limbs trembled, yet he instinctively activated void‑travel and tried to escape. The surrounding space quivered, giving him a disorienting sense; the traversal failed and he remained in place.

Space-Time Shock! the battle wizard let out a hoarse scream.

His face was extremely twisted, as if mad, yet he could not find Lei En's position.

Pfft!

A metallic gleaming iron fist punched out from the battle wizard's chest, the hard-as-rock fist turned into claws, retracted back, and with a forceful twist, tore his body apart.

Amid the flying blood, Lei En's figure appeared behind him, his face showing no change in expression.

The souls of the four Legendary High-rank were all absorbed.

He glanced at the phone interface; the energy in the soul power pool surged, but now is not the time to upgrade, as two most important enemies await his resolution.

Lei En raised his hand to recall the Thunder Hammer, and at the same time opened an Any Door and stepped through.
