Earth Dragon Thunderclap.
The ultimate strike of Thunder Emperor Thorn.
Lude drew in a deep breath and looked at Thunder Emperor Thorn.
He had unleashed that ultimate strike, which had been evenly matched with [Fire Dragon Incinerates Heaven].
Could Thunder Emperor Thorn possibly emerge completely unscathed?
The answer, naturally, was—
No!
The fissure-like wounds on his arm were proof of that.
To deliver a blow like that with a mortal body meant paying a price.
Even the psionic energy wrapping around Thunder Emperor Thorn had weakened significantly compared to before.
Thorn's current state was probably only at one-half—or even one-third?
If Lude could unleash another [Fire Dragon Incinerates Heaven], Thorn would either be dead or heavily injured.

Watching the calm and focused Thunder Emperor, Lude calmly raised both hands and placed them in front of his forehead.
"Oh?"
Thorn was slightly taken aback, and even paused his energy gathering.
He
