I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God Chapter 1414: Madman
Previously on I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God...
A tempestuous sandstorm obscured the sky, creating an atmosphere of inescapable desolation.
Yet, the Five Heaven-Burying Brothers pressed onward, bearing the coffin. Moving with uncanny silence and speed, they vanished into the sandstorm, their forms flickering to reappear a hundred zhang distant in the blink of an eye.
A sudden shift.
Feng Jiuxiao's heart grew heavy, his gaze intensifying.
"This movement technique is quite remarkable. It appears they are not mere pawns."
"No matter, I shall employ but two-tenths of my power."
Still reveling in the illusion of his unparalleled dominance, a confident smile graced his features.
But then, in the very next moment.
The Five Heaven-Burying Brothers exchanged glances and, with resounding voices, initiated the challenge!
"As an ancient entity, you desecrated our Shadow Island's grand design and nearly annihilated the Lord of Yunxing. Your transgressions are unforgivable. Heed our warning: return with us to face judgment and then seclude yourself from the world. Fail to comply, and we shall seal you for all eternity!"
Their deep voices reverberated through the desolate sandy expanse, leaving Feng Jiuxiao momentarily stunned.
"So, you are the lackeys of that vile demon, seeking retribution today!"
"You ignorant whelps, do not presume that your fortunate discovery of my whereabouts grants you the right to contend with me. Today, you shall all be interred here!"
His pronouncements were charged with powerful momentum, yet within Feng Jiuxiao, a tempest of disbelief raged.
His concealment secret technique had woven a world of its own, making it difficult even for Jiang Yuan to pinpoint his exact location. How, then, had these individuals found him so swiftly?
How was this conceivable!
Taken aback, Feng Jiuxiao abandoned his earlier dismissiveness.
His eyes remained fixed upon the coffin-bearing quintet in the distance, his left hand discreetly weaving a mystical hand seal within his sleeve.
During the tense pause that followed.
The Five Heaven-Burying Brothers remained silent.
A subtle upturn curved the lips of the five men as they resumed their advance. Their steps grew increasingly unrestrained, so much so that they relinquished their grip on the coffin, letting it rest against their shoulders.
They even began to sway and step, transitioning into a peculiar dance!
Their movements were comically exaggerated, treating the coffin with a mocking levity, completely devoid of reverence for the deceased. Combined with their inexplicable smirks, their demeanor was undeniably unsettling.
Even so.
Feng Jiuxiao dared not continue to underestimate them. Utilizing the interval spent forming the hand seal, he channeled even more of his cultivation, unleashing seven-tenths of his formidable power!
With a swift and ferocious palm strike!
"Great Desolate Wind God Palm!"
The palm's wind roared as if a thousand dragons were chanting in unison, calling upon the very essence of heaven and earth.
The immense expanse of wild sand was instantly whipped into a hurricane!
Where the relentless, fierce wind swept through, an aura of death pervaded. The terrifying power surged unabated, seemingly intent on annihilating all in its path into utter nothingness!
As an ancient being, Feng Jiuxiao's exertion of seven-tenths of his strength was considered a significant concession, a gesture of respect towards these peculiar young challengers.
However.
His measured caution fell short compared to the resolve of the five brothers. Remembering Wu Tao's admonitions, they had come prepared for a fight unto death.
At this crucial moment, they unleashed their ultimate strike!
With the coffin balanced, the five men moved in a blur, converging upon Feng Jiuxiao in an instant!
"Whoosh!"
A streak of light flashed, rendering their figures indistinguishable!
Despite the swirling sand and the gale force winds that dominated the sky, the Five Heaven-Burying Brothers left them far behind in mere moments!
Their auras were elusive, and the ominously black coffin they carried gleamed with a chilling luster, eclipsing even the sunlight descending from above. A profound sense of oppressive dread washed over everything as one observed the unfolding scene.
This spells trouble!
Feng Jiuxiao gasped in shock, his expression contorting. His instinct screamed to unleash his full power, but it was already too late!
In the subsequent moment.
The formidable black coffin blotted out the sky and sun, affording him no opportunity to retaliate.
"Bang!"
With a dull thud, the black coffin slammed onto the sandy ground.
Feng Jiuxiao found himself trapped within, his final, utterly unwilling shouts echoing out!
"No! No!!!"
As the coffin lid was sealed shut, the five brothers hoisted the coffin once more.
Ripples of distortion dispersed through the void.
Resuming their peculiar dance, their steps caused the coffin to jolt and bang with each movement.
Only a few breaths later,
The void's ripples faded, and the world returned to its tranquil state, as if no disturbance had occurred. Feng Jiuxiao's presence vanished entirely from existence, as though he had been expunged. The immense desert sea remained unchanged, save for the blazing sun overhead.
Simultaneously, within the Thousand Mountains Ominous Realm, located millions of miles away, Lei Qianjue, who had been in hiding, materialized. The sheer force of his escaping aura caused all manner of fierce beasts to cower.
He stood atop a mountain peak, waiting with evident impatience.
"To think it would take this long to deal with a few insignificant beings..."
He attempted to convey a message using a divine soul incantation, but received no response.
With an irritated snort, Lei Qianjue declared,
"It seems he has gone into hiding once more, merely offering perfunctory words earlier."
"He fawned over me before, yet still lacked the courage to act. The mere mention of Jiang Yuan's name instilled such timidity. He is truly not cut out for true endeavors."
"To achieve grand ambitions, one must align with decisive individuals. I believe Liu Tiannan will never falter. It is time to give him proper consideration."
As he contemplated, Lei Qianjue conjured another magic spell.
He intended to meet Liu Tiannan through a divine soul projection to discuss their grand scheme of galactic domination.
At that precise moment,
Disturbances in the void manifested before him, leaving Lei Qianjue utterly astonished.
Under his intense scrutiny, a peculiar man, swathed in bandages, emerged. Despite emanating human SENSE, there were no other discernable fluctuations. At first glance, he resembled a reanimated corpse.
The sudden appearance of such an individual would undoubtedly shock any observer.
Lei Qianjue's brow furrowed slightly as he stepped forward, coldly demanding,
"Who dares trespass here?"
"This Thousand Mountains Ominous Realm is my sanctuary. How dare an ignorant junior disturb my seclusion!"
To his surprise, as soon as the words left his lips,
the newcomer displayed no fear. After a sweeping glance, he directly addressed Lei Qianjue with a smile.
"Hmm, not bad."
"This place's environment has a certain charm, a touch of artistic flair. It is worthy of devastation."
"You are in no position to demand my identity. You only need to know this: either continue to cower in hiding, feigning ignorance and promising no further transgressions; or, experience firsthand the essence of true art."
As the laughter subsided, Lei Qianjue was dumbfounded.
"How dare you accuse me of causing trouble?"
The abrupt accusation left him bewildered, unable to grasp the other party's intent momentarily. However, Lei Qianjue, being an ancient entity, possessed profound experience and cunning. Following a brief shock and confusion, a hypothesis formed in his mind.
The fact that this individual could locate him indicated truly formidable capabilities.
He had remained hidden for two eras, only recently manifesting a divine soul projection. The sole conceivable adversary was Pork Rong, the shadowy figure who had previously manipulated the demon race as the Star Master...
As this realization dawned, Lei Qianjue's pupils contracted!
"Could it be that you are an associate of that malevolent junior?!"
"I never anticipated that he had such a powerful individual backing him, capable of pinpointing my location. No wonder he displayed such audacity that day!"
With a ruthless glint in his eyes, Lei Qianjue shifted his focus,
"Unfortunately, you severely underestimate my capabilities!"
"Do not presume that mere strange arts grant you impunity. I am an existence that transcends eras, far beyond your comprehension!"
"Today, I shall demonstrate to you, mere ants, the terrifying might of my true form unleashed upon the world!"
After a fierce roar, Lei Qianjue unleashed the entirety of his cultivation!
His palms gathered an immense, primordial power, instantly altering the heavens and clouds. A bolt of thunder, thick as a pillar, was grasped firmly in his hands, resembling a peerless divine weapon, while his white hair billowed as if possessed by a true god!
"Heaven-Shaking Thunder Attraction Art!"
Aware of the opponent's extraordinary nature, his strike employed his ultimate life-source divine ability!
Before the other party could even react, an endless cascade of lightning tribulations descended simultaneously. The entire Thousand Mountains Fierce Realm appeared on the verge of obliteration, reducing a ten-thousand-mile radius to scorched earth.
Yet, the enigmatic entity remained unfazed, a peculiar smile gracing his lips.
Hahaha...
You truly fail to comprehend your predicament, which is precisely what I desired!
A cold laugh echoed in Lei Qianjue's heart as he thought the fool was completely ignorant of the world's vastness. He immediately commanded the lightning tribulation to descend, displaying a ruthlessness that had reached its zenith!
In a flash.
The mountain peaks and valleys were bathed in light, as if it were day; the dazzling lightning illuminated the entire world!
The overwhelming power sent all living beings scattering in terror!
Strangely, the demonic entity seemed entirely oblivious to the imminent danger. Not only did he make no move to evade, but he charged forward like a berserker, roaring with laughter!
Hahaha!
Art is an explosion! Hah!
Such nonsensical words and actions painted him as one driven to madness by sheer terror. Lei Qianjue's eyes gleamed with a frigid sneer as he sent even more lightning bolts crashing down, already envisioning his opponent reduced to mere ashes.
Regardless of any peculiar arts he might possess, he was ultimately just an inexperienced youth who had never faced true peril.
For a fleeting moment.
The edges of Lei Qianjue's lips curved upward slightly, poised to break into a triumphant grin.
The very next instant, however, he was utterly dumbfounded by a sudden, earth-shattering detonation!
Boom!!!
The sonic boom reverberated through the heavens and earth, and a golden radiance burst forth in all directions!
Lei Qianjue's eyes widened in disbelief, his face contorted as though he had witnessed a phantom.
Within his field of vision.
The bandaged man, who had hurtled forward like a madman, had actually detonated himself on the spot. The catastrophic shockwave surged across the landscape, engulfing even the descending lightning tribulations in its golden fury, akin to an apocalyptic cataclysm!
What in the blazes!
It dawned on him that the opponent had resolved to self-destruct from the very outset, intending to sacrifice his life for a mutual demise. No wonder he had never attempted to dodge and displayed no hint of apprehension!
This was a sudden, albeit belated, understanding.
Witnessing the terrifying wave of destruction hurtling towards him, disintegrating everything in its path into minuscule particles.
Lei Qianjue bellowed in pure terror and turned tail to flee!
Holy hell!
He's an absolute lunatic!!!
