Chapter 655: Thunderbolt Deity!

Chapter 655: Thunderbolt Deity!

BOOM! The formidable Tri Dark Lord glared menacingly at Yun Xiao with six eyes, his body emitting copious amounts of black mist.

In the blink of an eye, his form shifted, transforming into a pitch-black, ink-like three-headed serpent. Towering above, it stared down at Yun Xiao with a deadly intent.

The serpent had green eyes and triangular heads. Its mouth, when opened, revealed a forked tongue sharp as spikes and venomous fangs hooked backwards. Its body was covered in thick scales, clearly forged over countless years by Desolate Essence, making its flesh as indestructible as a celestial treasure.

A celestial demon's body was heavy as a mountain with strength vast as the sea!

BOOM! Without another word, the three colossal serpent heads, like three great mountains, lunged at Yun Xiao.

"Be careful!" Pale Revenant gritted her teeth, her face ashen. Even as a deep-sea corpse demon who'd advanced into the Spirit Projection Realm, she was too frail against this celestial demon.

Yet, Yun Xiao hadn't expected this young girl to shield him so swiftly! Her action was clearly suicidal, yet it also revealed that in her eyes, only Yun Xiao mattered; she regarded her own life as insignificant.

RIP! As she transformed into a corpse demon surrounded by swirling sea waves, a mere touch from the Tri Dark Lord shattered her corporeal form, scattering blood and remnants across the ground.

"Yun Xiao..."

Among the scattered remnants, Pale Revenant still murmured, wishing to protect her Yun Xiao.

"You silly girl..." Yun Xiao couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.

Pale Revenant was new to the Celestial Court. She was ignorant of the profound tiers of the Third Dao Tribulation, yet rashly she charged forward.

She knew neither Yun Xiao's true strength nor the vast gap between herself and the Tri Dark Lord.

"A corpse demon?" The serpent's eyes lit up at the collision, chuckling, "You've nurtured a fine creature indeed!"

Yun Xiao gave it a cold glance. "Indeed a fine creature, just terribly starved."

At that moment, with his left hand, he conjured a violet Runic Umbrella!

From the umbrella emerged the roars of nine divine dragons, violently unfurling, with the eyes of nine dragon heads on its ribs opening in solemn majesty, surrounded by 22 Sacred Dragon Rune Prisons!

Under the support of Yun Xiao’s current celestial power, the Runic Umbrella unleashed its formidable power.

And just then, one of the serpent’s heads was striking towards Yun Xiao!

BOOM! Around one of the serpent heads, a storm of thunder-charged snowflakes whirled and howled towards Yun Xiao, likely some supreme demonic sorcery.

Facing the serpent's head and its thunderous blizzard, Yun Xiao stood unflinching as a mountain, merely lifting his hand to thrust the Runic Umbrella right into the gaping maw of the Tri Dark Lord!

"Life Sigil? A mere snack... Ahhh!!!"

First, the Tri Dark Lord sneered with contempt, but in the very next moment, the Runic Umbrella, like nine massive dragons, instantly pulverized one of his heads into a bloody spray, turning the thunderstorm into a bloody mess, splattering everywhere!

"In just one day, you've grown this much stronger!" It was clear that the Tri Dark Lord had investigated Yun Xiao, thinking he had gotten a read of the young man. Yet upon engaging, his expectations were utterly crushed by the might of the Creator Immortal!

Shocked to his core, he didn't pause a moment, whipping his serpentine body around to flee.

"Boring." Yun Xiao, leaning on his umbrella, nonchalantly blocked the thunderous blizzard, then casually flung his Flying Sword with his right hand.

HUM! The azure sword burst forth with surging thunder, transforming suddenly into an azure bird with outstretched wings, striking right at the back of the Tri Dark Lord's head.

Inside the Cao Immortal Manor, the Moon Sword Goddess and Gu Suwan stared in disbelief at the young man in flawless white.

With an umbrella in hand, he looked like he was on a leisurely stroll; with a flick of his Flying Sword, the Tri Dark Lord exploded!

After the death, whether it was the Tri Dark Lord's spirit, demonic bones, or the corpse itself, everything was consumed without a trace left behind!

Was Yun Xiao a wandering Immortal or a plague of locusts?

"Do you think you could defeat the Tri Dark Lord?" the Moon Sword Goddess asked Gu Suwan.

"No." Gu Suwan bit her lip and shook her head.

"Then this young man truly defies the heavens. Such a being, can you really not pledge your support?" The Moon Sword Goddess had been watching Yun Xiao's rise; her heart was so overwhelmed it felt suffocated.

It was terrifying! She couldn't even begin to describe how terrifying it was.

Yesterday, he defeated An Yao, a Mid-stage Golden Immortal, at the Divine Gateway. Today, he crushed the Tri Dark Lord, who was comparable to Gu Suwan... Could tomorrow be the day he surpasses even herself?

She even wanted to ask—if the Chaos Sovereign or White Emperor were truly his equals.

Such thoughts she kept to herself, unspoken.

And Gu Suwan was left utterly dumbfounded. Earlier today, the Nine Thunders Sovereign had sought her out alone, opening new avenues of thought, but now, she was thoroughly bewildered.

"Master, foster mother."

At that moment, Yun Xiao approached them.

The Moon Sword Goddess was the first to greet him, her face wearing a rare smile. "I also noticed this celestial demon, but I had a feeling you could handle it. So, I didn't intervene. You don’t mind, do you?"

"How could I?" Yun Xiao shook his head. "Master understands me, trusts me, and I am honored by it."

The Moon Sword Goddess’s usually frosty demeanor softened as she asked gently, "This young girl, is she a corpse demon?"

"My demonic pet," Yun Xiao responded.

"To earn your approval, she must have a boundless future," the Moon Sword Goddess remarked with approval.

Her change was becoming more pronounced.

"Foster mother? Is something bothering you?" Yun Xiao glanced at Gu Suwan, noting her anxious demeanor.

"No, not at all." Gu Suwan smiled sweetly. "All is well. I hadn’t expected the demons and devils from Naraka to become so excessive. Probably because the Ascension Pool was destroyed, outsiders have infiltrated. We need to report this, and get more forces deployed to protect you."

"Indeed! The more, the merrier," Yun Xiao nodded.

"What’s next?" the Moon Sword Goddess asked.

"I plan to continue my cultivation here in the Thunder Department; it’s the safest place," Yun Xiao replied, then looking back at the frosty beauty, he added, "By the way, Master, weren’t you going to teach me the Immortal Sword Court’s secret Dao Heaven grade techniques? How about now?"

The Moon Sword Goddess was taken aback. She had never mentioned teaching him techniques at the Dao Heaven grade. But she realized, this was her real chance to grow close to Yun Xiao...
