Heavenly Punishment

"I'm going to die?"

Upon hearing Gu Jinlai said, Lei Yuan's expression, which resembled a cat playing with a mouse, froze slightly.

Then, he let out a wild and unrestrained laugh, "Hahaha, I'll die? That's the best joke I've heard all year! A Martial King who barely possesses peak Celestial Person- level combat power through Divine Ability abilities dares to speak like that in front of a Martial Saint! Since you've successfully made me laugh, I've decided..."

Before he could finish speaking, the martial saint made his move.

Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit.

Facing Gu Jinlai, this martial saint still used arrogant laughter as a cover, and suddenly attacked halfway through his speech.

He suddenly drew his sword.

With a single thrust, countless bolts of lightning and thunder coiled around this battle sword, which was considered one of the best among quasi-Dao artifacts, forming a Thunder Sword that tore through the sky.

In the void, it was as if a huge silver dragon had swept across, its speed exceeding the reaction limits of Qi Yunxiao, and even Qi Sheng, a Celestial Person.

"Careful!"

Before Qi Sheng could even utter a cry of alarm, the roaring silver dragon, enveloped in sword light, had already slammed into Gu Jinlai- air, a hundred meters away, and then...

Time seemed to stand still in the empty space a hundred meters in front of him Gu Jinlai.

The incredibly fast silver dragon gradually slowed down, slowed down, slowed down in front of him...

Slowing down continuously.

Finally, when it was still thirty meters away from him, it came to a complete stop.

Gu Jinlai at the silver dragon and commented, "The speed is not bad, and it is an invincible starting move for surprise attacks, but the power is a bit lacking."

"How is that possible!?"

Lei Yuan stared at the silver dragon frozen thirty meters in front of Gu Jinlai, his feigned arrogant laughter truly freezing on the spot.

"The Celestial Person's control over the power of heaven and earth!? No! It's Divine Ability! A domain Divine Ability!"

He quickly realized what was going on.

Only...

After realizing it, he found it even more unbelievable.

What kind of supernatural Divine Ability could be this strong?!

His all-out attack, despite being a martial saint, couldn't even tear apart this domain of divine Divine Ability.

Even those who have cultivated their domain supernatural Divine Ability to perfection cannot achieve this level, right?

Unless it is...

A flash of inspiration struck him.

"A superior-level Divine Ability at the perfection stage!"

Gu Jinlai, besides mastering a superior Divine Ability called the Thunder Sword, he also possesses another superior domain-type Divine Ability!

At this moment, Gu Jinlai reached out and opened his five fingers toward the silver lightning dragon that seemed to be frozen in the void thirty meters away, and then clenched his fist tightly.

"Boom!"

Thunder roared!

The silver dragon, solidified in the void, exploded with a deafening roar, scattering countless bolts of lightning that spread wantonly in all directions.

Before the lightning could spread to hundreds or thousands of meters away, an invisible force pulled them back from their shattered state and solidified them into a new thunder dragon.

This time, however, Lei Long's gaze was directed at Martial Saint Lei Yuan, who was pursuing him.

"Not good!"

The moment Lei Yuan was locked in by the Thunder Dragon, he sensed a tremendous threat.

He was well aware of the terrifying speed of his "Thunder Dragon Flash," a technique that even he might not be able to block.

At that moment, he roared, his whole body bursting with lightning, and his figure rapidly expanded, directly transforming into a towering giant fourteen meters tall.

Countless bolts of lightning emanated from his body, enveloping him and making him appear as if he had transformed into a bolt of lightning, shooting towards the direction where Gu Jinlai was at incredible speed.

And at the very front of Thunder...

It was none other than the sharp sword that had condensed a large amount of lightning power.

Lei Primordial Spirit Body!

Derivative Divine Ability: Lightning Dragon Transformation Technique!

The silver dragon roared.

Despite Lei Yuan unleashing his derivative Divine Ability, the Lightning Dragon Transformation Technique, which made him appear as a lightning dragon leaping out, he was still no match for the Gu Jinlai who controlled the field with lightning...

Even with its power amplified, the "Thunder Dragon Flash" was still impossible to dodge.

Especially when Lei Yuanchao attacked Gu Jinlai, he had already stepped into the lightning domain. With the aiming and guiding function of the lightning domain, the lightning dragon he transformed into collided head-on with Gu Jinlai's "Lightning Dragon Flash" attack without any fancy moves.

"Boom!"

An unprecedented thunderstorm seemed to erupt in the sky, illuminating the surrounding area for dozens of miles.

In an instant, the sky, thousands of meters high, seemed to be torn open by two giant lightning bolts, and then countless shattered lightning bolts formed a dense discharge phenomenon, spreading wildly in all directions.

That feeling...

It's as if it's trying to completely tear the sky apart.

This scene, and the destructive energy it contained, deeply shocked everyone present.

Not only Zhao Yushu, Qi Yunxiao, and Qi Sheng, but also the dozen or so Celestial Person and Martial Kings who came with Lei Yuan were shocked and widened their eyes.

They could clearly sense the thunderstorm and the terrifying energy contained within the electrical discharge.

If they were caught in it, even if they possessed defensive artifacts, their bodies would be torn apart by this terrifying energy, their flesh and blood would scatter, and they would be reduced to charcoal.

Lightning flashed across the sky.

"Kill!"

Amidst the continuously released and dazzling lightning, a roar filled with rage suddenly erupted from Martial Saint Lei Yuan.

A violent martial will filled the void, infused with lightning.

Amplified by this willpower, the lightning power emanating from his body seemed to possess emotions and life, becoming even more violent, tearing the silver lightning dragon formed by "Thunder Dragon Flash" to shreds.

His body moved through lightning, fearlessly traversing the endless thunder and lightning, assassinating those who came from the Gu Jinlai.

"The power of the lightning field is weaker than I expected."

Gu Jinlai summarized. "I thought that I could kill a Martial Saint with just the basic attack of the Lightning Domain, but I didn't expect that I would have to use a skill... It must be because I haven't mastered it yet."

Then, something else occurred to him. "It's possible that the Martial Saint is stronger than I expected."

After all, a Martial Saint who cultivates the Thunder Primordial Spirit Body and completes the transformation and reshaping is equivalent to following the path of the Heavenly Demon God, which is obviously stronger than the Innate Demon God who follows the bloodline path.

Nearly half of the Martial Saints even possessed combat power close to that of a Saint, or the second tier, the moment they completed their physical reconstruction.

The next moment, he made a grasping motion with his hand, and the positive and negative electrons collided violently, flashing with lightning.

A giant sword composed entirely of lightning formed above his head, its blade pointing directly at Lei Yuan.

This is...

"Thunder Sword!"

A flicker of fear flashed in Lei Yuan's eyes.

The most famous killing move Gu Jinlai, the supreme Divine Ability, Thunder Sword.

It is said that he has already perfected this Divine Ability.

"Buzz!"

Just then, the power of the lightning domain surged out, like ripples, impacting Lei Yuan's figure in circles.

Under the impact of these ripples, he, who had originally transformed into a thunder dragon, was as if he were trapped in water, the clear water turning into a mud pit, and the mud pit turning into mercury...

During this process, his charging figure slowed down at a visible speed.

"How is that possible!?"

Lei Yuan's eyes were filled with disbelief.

If this trend continues, his final outcome will likely be like the lightning dragon he unleashed, stopping directly in front of Gu Jinlai, unable to harm him in the slightest.

He, a Martial Saint, couldn't even break through this domain Divine Ability!?

This...

It's definitely not a superior supernatural Divine Ability!

"A top-tier Divine Ability! This is a top-tier domain Divine Ability!"

Lei Yuan roared, and his figure, which was originally charging towards Gu Jinlai, turned around at an incredible speed.

Under the power of the derived Divine Ability, Thunder Dragon Transformation Technique, he seemed to transform into a real thunder dragon, only seeking to rush out of this area as quickly as possible and escape as far away as possible.

"Can you leave?"

Gu Jinlai, a single thought can evoke a feeling.

The primordial magnetic divine light power contained within the lightning domain was activated, and instantly, Lei Yuan, who had transformed into a lightning dragon and was rushing outwards, seemed to have fallen into a black hole.

A terrifying force kept pulling at his body, tearing apart the electricity on his body, and causing bolts of electricity to burst out continuously.

This is...

He peeled away his divine body, which had transformed into a thunder dragon, inch by inch.

This fear of being trapped, with no way to advance or retreat, and having no control over his own life or death, made Lei Yuan cry out in terror, "Misunderstanding! Stop! District Chief Gu, it's a misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding... I am the Deputy Commander of the Haifeng City Guard, you can't kill me..."

What awaited him was a lightning sword that had solidified and taken shape, its size almost unbelievable.

"Boom!"

Thunder pierced the sky.

Trapped in the primordial magnetic divine light, Lei Yuan's fear reached an unprecedented extreme at this moment.

"No!"

The next moment, his figure was swallowed up by the enormous lightning sword.

His aura as a martial saint completely vanished.

This scene was truly horrifying, deeply impacting the nerves of everyone who witnessed it.

Qi Yunxiao, Qi Sheng, and Zhao Yushu felt an irrepressible surge of excitement.

Those Celestial Person and martial kings who had come with Lei Yuan to besiege and kill people from Gu Jinlai felt a chill run down their spines.

How long has it been?!

Their deputy commander of the Haifeng City Guard, a giant figure at the Martial Saint realm, was utterly crushed in a mere fraction of a second after his battle with Gu Jinlai ended. Such power...

It gave them a shock that felt like their skulls were being ripped open.

When they realized that Gu Jinlai, after killing Lei Yuan, had turned his gaze to them, the dozen or so people simultaneously jolted, snapping out of their shock.

"Run! Run! Run now!"

"This power... this strength... a top-tier Martial Saint!? No! Even a top-tier Martial Saint couldn't achieve this! A peak Martial Saint! He is a peak Martial Saint!"

A dozen or so people screamed in terror and ran as fast as they could towards Haifeng City.

Only by escaping to Haifeng City can they have a glimmer of hope.

Pity...

Although four of these dozen or so people were only at the Light Red Name level, Gu Jinlai showed them no mercy whatsoever.

He took a step and soared into the air. At the same time, the Chaotic Starlight Body operated at full speed, and the power of the Lightning Domain spread wildly from him. Above the sky, it seemed as if a net of divine punishment formed by lightning had appeared.

"Boom!"

The sky suddenly brightened.

Beneath the heavenly net, countless bolts of lightning intertwined, instantly forming more than a dozen lightning swords.

Each lightning sword was like a divine punishment, carrying the brilliance to dispel darkness and illuminate the world, devouring more than a dozen Celestial Person and martial kings who were fleeing in terror.
