Over the Pulebu Plain, golden lightning spread across the sky like an ocean, causing the heavens to turn gold for a brief moment.
"Awoo!"
A piercing shriek rang out as a purple demonic eagle with a wingspan exceeding twenty meters manifested behind Alfred. This was Alfred's true form as a divine beast, the Purple Thunder War Eagle. The eagle's purple wings radiated a halo of lightning, and its crimson eyes stared coldly at Ren.
"Hum hum~"
The space hummed with vibrations. A low, rumbling sound emanated from the throat of the Purple Thunder War Eagle, while the red glow in its eyes suddenly deepened, transforming into purple streams of light that shot forward, leaving behind a series of peculiar ripples in the void.
Innate Divine Ability—Purple Thunder Sonic Wave!
The Purple Thunder War Eagle was a divine beast naturally gifted in the Lightning Law. Its innate divine ability, the Purple Thunder Sonic Wave, simultaneously unleashed a vocal soul attack and a ripple-based binding effect. It could stun an enemy's soul while binding their physical body, and when combined with the material attack techniques of the Lightning Law, it was enough to slay powerful Asura-level foes.
The eerie vocal music penetrated Ren's mind, and a surge of unique heaven and earth energy was instantly released deep within his soul. Ren's consciousness faltered for a split second, and his eyes grew cloudy for a moment.
The ripples that followed passed through Ren's body, creating pressure from all directions, much like the Gravity Space of the Earth Law.
"Purple Thunder—World Destruction!"
After the innate divine ability was released, the phantom of the Purple Thunder War Eagle dissipated. Alfred reappeared, clutching his battle blade. He gripped the weapon with both hands and raised it high above his head. The chaotic ocean of golden lightning suddenly boiled, surging madly into the blade.
"Swish!"
In an instant, space was torn apart like a piece of rag. The golden light condensed into a single point, turning into a chilling black-purple. With a flash of purple lightning, Alfred dove toward Ren, the tip of his blade radiating destructive energy.
Ren's cloudy eyes returned to blue. He suddenly looked up to see the purple blade light already inches away, leaving him no room to dodge.
"Chirp chirp~"
A violent current of air erupted the moment Ren looked up, instantly spreading for a thousand miles. The entire space was churned up, and a powerful binding force slammed into Alfred.
The purple edge, which had been falling at extreme speed, faltered slightly before continuing to hack down toward Ren.
"Gale!"
Ren's mouth parted slightly as he let out a low shout. His body instantly turned into a phantom, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of Ren clones appeared. Each clone held a cyan spear, and terrifying air currents circled between them, forming a massive Mobius Ring.
"Dimensional—Blast!"
As the final low shout rang out, the thousands of clones suddenly merged into one. The cyan energy ring circling the void instantly wound around Alfred like silk threads. Divine Power gathered at the spear tip, transforming into hundreds of spear shadows that formed a massive, hundred-meter-long cyan light, thrusting upward from below.
"Boom!"
The purple light stream collided with the cyan light stream. The cyan radiance suddenly exploded from the center, emitting a series of deafening roars. The massive sound traveled rapidly for a thousand miles, causing many of the watching god-level experts to feel their souls dazed for a moment.
"Swish!"
At the core of the collision of Divine Power, Alfred felt a terrifying force slam into his body. The defense on his chest was torn apart like fragile paper, and his entire body was sent plummeting toward the horizon, completely out of control.
"Bang!"
Following the sound of a falling meteor, a purple figure smashed heavily into the ground, instantly creating a crater over ten meters deep.
"How is this possible? His attack... how could it be so bizarre?" Alfred struggled to stand up, his face filled with disbelief.
At this moment, Alfred's purple robes were shredded, and blood flowed from his chest, revealing the white bones beneath. He looked incredibly wretched.
Lightning technique—Purple Thunder World Destruction vs. Wind technique—Gale Dimensional Blast. Prefect Alfred was at a disadvantage.
This time, Alfred truly felt a hint of the threat of death. During the collision of their techniques, he had used his innate divine ability to suppress and bind his opponent first, then struck with all his might. Ren, meanwhile, had used his technique in a rush after recovering his senses, meaning he couldn't have unleashed its full power.
Yet, even so, Alfred was still at a disadvantage. Although he had offset most of the power through the physical toughness of his divine beast body and his own techniques, his current state was dire. If this happened again, he feared he wouldn't be able to block it.
"This... did I see that right? The Prefect... was knocked away?" Suddenly, uncertain voices emerged from the crowd.
"It seems to be true. Heavens, am I going to witness the birth of a new Prefect today!"
Purple Divine Power radiated from Alfred's body as he constantly attempted to repair his flesh. However, at his level, repairing a damaged divine body was no easy feat, and his opponent would not grant him the time to do so.
A cyan light shadow descended rapidly from mid-air. Ren did not pause; he sprinted forward with air currents circling his body. His spear tip instantly turned into a blur, striking at Alfred from multiple directions.
"Damn it!"
Alfred gritted his teeth and flashed backward. The battle blade in his hand vanished into thin air, replaced by a long blue whip. He swung it rapidly in front of him, and the high-speed rotating whip formed a blue vortex. Condensing the light of golden lightning, it turned into dozens of small electric whirlwinds that filled the void in the blink of an eye.
The mysteries of the Lightning Law excelled in material attacks and speed. In the realm of spatial binding, it could not compare to the Gravity Space of the Earth Law or the Wind Space of the Wind Law. Therefore, aside from his innate divine ability, Alfred was not skilled at binding enemies. His Purple Thunder Space technique could only use electric attacks to harass the enemy; it could not exert the same pressure as a Gravity Space.
However, the laws of heaven and earth were fair. The advantage of the Lightning Law's mysteries over the Wind Law lay in the faster recovery rate of Divine Power and the ease of absorbing lightning from the heavens to attack. This was why Luomiu cultivated in the Star Fog Sea. At the same time, the form of Lightning Law attacks was more bizarre and varied, like electric currents, which could be used to restrain enemies.
"Rumble!"
The cyan light shadow collided with the blue vortex. Ren's movements slowed down slightly, and he frowned. Then, the surrounding blue vortexes seemed to be attracted to him, closing in to surround him.
This technique is a bit restrictive, Ren thought to himself. Although the constantly released blue vortexes were not powerful, they were numerous, produced rapidly, and consumed very little Divine Power. They were perfect for delaying his speed.
"However, this move won't stop me!" Ren's expression remained unchanged, his eyes shifted, and the cyan light suddenly surged from his body.
"Chirp chirp~"
As the sound of space trembling rang out, the range of the cyan air currents circling Ren suddenly expanded—one hundred meters, five hundred meters, a thousand meters, and still extending. Within this space, a Dimensional Blade appeared upon every blue vortex covered in golden lightning.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"
In a moment, all the blue vortexes dissipated. Ren's figure turned into a stream of light, rushing toward Alfred like a falling meteor.
