Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
As the ball exploded, boundless of electrical energy surrounded the Fire Emperor threateningly. The arcs of electricity were buzzing all around him unceasingly.
At the same time, right within the nucleus of the ball of energy bore a small trace of purple electricity. This had been acquired when Xu Que was undergoing his Tribulation. Despite the size of the purple electrical energy, it’s powers were unthinkable!
Since Xu Que had the Killer Book which was at full Glory, any attack had its strength increased by 30 times!
It was obvious that the Fire Emperor was in for a tragedy!
"Pu!"
Despite the ancient Imperial Qi’s protection, the Fire Emperor spat out a mouthful of blood.
After being surrounded by so many arcs of electrical pulses, he was starting to convulse and twitch involuntarily.
This wasn’t because he was too weak. It was because Xu Que had used such immense power!
By itself, the Lightning Tribulation spell was exceedingly powerful. When its strength was multiplied by 30, it far surpassed what the Fire Emperor could withstand!
It was fortunate for the Fire Emperor that he could summon the Imperial Qi to his aid as it significantly reduced the effects of the lightning. If not, he would’ve probably been burnt to a crisp with no chances of survival.
Spitting out a little blood meant that he was exceptionally lucky to come out relatively unscathed.
The Fire Emperor’s heart was filled with fear. He found it extremely hard to believe that apart from the three colored fiery lotus, Xu Que had other spells up his sleeves.
How… How was this possible?
It had only been a year. How could he have gotten so strong?
The Fire Emperor was inching extremely close to insanity. However, there was nothing he could do at this point. He could only keep drawing on the Imperial Qi to absorb the powers of the lightning arcs!
Everyone’s faces was filled with dread and they were all stupefied by this scene.
The Fire Emperor had spat out blood again?
A level 6 Infant Transformation elite fighter was being beaten up by this level seven Original Infant. Can you believe it?
And… And he even had to rely on the Imperial Qi to absorb the damage. If it weren’t for the Imperial Qi, would the Emperor have been murdered?
Everyone thought about this as their bodies started to tremble and their scalps turned numb. Even their backs started dripping cold sweat.
Scary… He’s really too scary!
Heavenly Explosion Faction’s Xu Que. This name had been imprinted on the minds of the disciples from the great sects and all the other cultivators and civilians of the Imperial City.
Nobody would ever forget that this young man managed to make the Fire Emperor spit blood out. Not once, but twice!
In fact, this youth even slept with the Fire Emperor’s concubine, the Flaming Sun Princess, and was about to make his advances on the Fire Emperor’s sister!
He was truly insane and no words could be used to accurately describe him!
"Haha! Dog Emperor, so it seems like you’re afraid of lightning! Indeed, for something as despicable as you should be struck by lightning repeatedly. Fine. I shall give you another two Monkey Blocks Lightnings!" Xu Que raised both his palms and concentrated for a second before another two balls of lightning appeared.
"Buzz" The sound of electricity rang out from Xu Que’s palms. Likewise, these two balls of electricity started becoming bigger again.
The crowd drew in a breath of cold air.
"Hssss, this kid is way too powerful. He’s way too fucking powerful! I’ve never seen anything like him!"
Just a single ball of lightning energy was enough to make the Emperor spit out blood and now he conjured another two balls for him.
But… This seemed like it wasn’t going to work. Although the Fire Emperor did spit out blood, to an Infant Transformation Stage cultivator, that meant that it was only a light injury!
If the Fire Emperor used a stronger killing spell, Xu Que would die without questions!
Everyone sighed out within their hearts.
At this point, the Fire Emperor conjured more Imperial Qi as another thick layer of white energy surrounded him.
The Fire Emperor was drawing on the ancient Imperial Qi to his defenses. In actual fact, he was drawing the power from his Imperial Tombs!
People who understood such matters knew that the entire palace was surrounded by a large powerful spell. This spell was closely related to the power of the Imperial Tombs.
A person with the blood of the imperial family flowing within their veins could draw on the Imperial Qi as long as he was standing nearby the source of the power. In fact, this person could make use of the Imperial Qi to acquire a very mysterious energy!
"Today, I shall vanquish you!" The Fire Emperor shouted out, his voice reverberating across the entire palace!
At the door of the throne room...
"Emperor father has already started it!" The Flaming Sun Princess whispered, her face revealed a grave expression.
As a member of the imperial family, she could feel the mysterious energy on the Fire Emperor as well!
This energy was called the Emperor’s Energy and originated from the ancestors of the Imperial family. Despite the fact that they were already dead, their bodies still lingered within the Imperial Tombs and were perfectly preserved.
However, there was a certain tradition within the imperial family. That tradition was that after knowing that his time is up, the Emperor would walk into the Imperial Tombs and lie on the stone. Just before he dies, he has to hold his breath. This last final breath wouldn’t change for all eternity and would be sealed in his body within the tomb!
As long as this spell was in place, the Imperial family could use their ancestors’ final breath and use it to cultivate to increase their strengths whenever the need arose.
However, the accumulation of such strength was extremely slow and could only rely on time to increase its potency. Besides, using this once meant that there was one less time to use it in the future.
The Emperor had started using this particular energy. It clearly showed the extent of which he wanted to kill Xu Que- that he would risk anything.
Xu Que didn’t notice this as he continued conjuring the pair of lightning balls. Indeed, he had added a purple streak of lightning to each of his two lighting balls.
Before long, he held up a large pair of Monkey Blocks Lightning balls and were bigger than his own body!
The electric energy are spinning and convulsing within the spheres violently.
"Dog Emperor, catch this!"
Xu Que then raised his hands high above his head before throwing the pair of balls with all his might. The size of the balls were so immense they almost resembled a pair of flying mountains, moving towards the Fire Emperor!
However, the Fire Emperor didn’t catch it this time.
With a flash, the Imperial Qi enveloped his body as he dodged the pair of lightning balls with incredible speed.
The Emperor believed that as long as he continued keeping this up, allowing the Emperor’s Energy to congeal within him, his cultivation powers would increase tremendously. In fact, he might even be able to advance to the Void Refining Stage and possess terrifying powers.
"Yo, stop running! Are you terrified yet!?" Xu Que watched as the Emperor retreated while taunting him!
At the same time, the ability from God of Hell’s Compulsion allowed him to control electrical energy. At this point, it finally showed its usefulness.
All he had to do was to concentrate and the pair of lightning balls which the Fire Emperor had already dodge turned around and shot straight at the Emperor once again!
Concurrently, Xu Que started beating his dark black flaming wings, causing a tornado. His shadow became a blur as he shot towards the Fire Emperor with startling speed!
At that precise moment, something unexpected happened!
The Fire Emperor didn’t retaliate by using his powerful spells. Instead, he decided to use his normal skills. Yet, his speed wasn’t by any means slow as he managed to dodge both the balls of electrical energy once again as well as roll out of the way of Xu Que’s strike!
Everyone watched on, completely bewildered.
The Fire Emperor was… being pursued?
Only the Flaming Sun Princess and Zi Xuan understood what he was trying to do.
He was holding out for as long as he could, up to the final moments. Then, he would use all the Emperor’s Energy which he had been condensing and increase his cultivation level!
Such a method was as good as summoning his forefathers into battle and helping to increase his cultivation!
"Dog Emperor, why are you running? Are you trying to charge another great ultimate skill? It’s no use. Watch out for my fearsome blade! Everytime I wield it, it takes a life!" Xu Que was laughing icily as he drew his Infinity Edge. Increasing his speed once again, he maneuvered himself in such a way that he ended up behind the Emperor.
At the next moment, the blinding flash of a sword could be seen!
"Chi la!"
The torn and tattered dragon robes which had been worn by the Emperor was sliced and completely torn this time as it broke off the Emperor and fell to the ground.
Hence, the great monarch of the Fire Nations had nothing to conceal his modesty and was completely naked. Every inch of his body was subjected to scrutiny by everyone present!
The people down below fell into silence. They were all shocked by such a scene.
Even they could tell that Xu Que’s sword attack wasn’t to harm or kill him. It was fairly obvious that Xu Que had intentionally slashed his robes off, causing the Emperor to look extremely foolish!
"This… This kid is extremely unorthodox in his ways!"
"Who would’ve expected that in such a fierce battle for life and death, he would actually think about how to humiliate his opponent."
"He is indeed the disciple of Duan Jiu De. Such an erratic personality, he is exactly the same as how Duan Jiu De has been described!"
"That’s not all! When you compare them, it even seemed like Xu Que’s more bizarre than his master!"
"Why do you say that?"
"Have you forgotten what happened earlier? Have you ever seen someone hurl shit while he was fighting?"
"Gulp…"
The group of them remained speechless.
This Duan Jiu De and now Xu Que!
This kid… The pair of them are oddities. One of them is called Que and the other is called De.
Damn it! When you put their names together, it becomes Que De!
(T/N: Que de means unscrupulous, or lacking in morals)
