Dawn of a New Era

Chapter 731 - 704: Rematch (Final)

Actually, Chen Shouyi did not hit the mark. At the moment of swinging his shield, the Lord of Lightning narrowly avoided the blow.

But even the aftershock is not something anyone can withstand.

Currently, the strength of Chen Shouyi’s true form alone reaches 60 tons. With the amplification of his sixty-meter-high Giant Transformation, his power can be terrifyingly equivalent to three million tons. A single punch is akin to the explosion of a miniature nuclear bomb.

Had it not been for the powerful Divine Power defense field automatically protecting the Lord of Lightning, this strike would have shattered Him into pieces. Nonetheless, the Lord of Lightning is now covered in blood, looking utterly disheveled, directly stunned by the blow.

Strike while He is down.

Watching the airborne Lord of Lightning, a hint of ruthlessness flashed across Chen Shouyi’s face.

He slightly bent his legs, and in the next moment, his feet suddenly stomped the ground.

A deafening "boom" echoed.

Accompanied by a violent tremor, the ground shattered into a massive circular crater. Simultaneously, his colossal figure, engulfed in flames, surged skyward, as if tearing the sky apart.

In mere moments, he had already caught up with the Lord of Lightning.

He stretched out his large hand, breaking through the thick, crimson air, reaching for His lightning-covered terrifying body.

The true form of the Lord of Lightning is not small, standing at thirty meters tall—a standard giant. However, in comparison to Chen Shouyi, He’s like a kindergarten child.

But at this moment, a frightening Divine Power suddenly erupted from the Lord of Lightning’s body. Chen Shouyi did not have time to close his eyes before a blinding light forced its way into his view. Smoke rose from his eyes; he was already blind.

"Destroy!" The Lord of Lightning shouted.

In the next moment.

A dark-golden Long Spear, like an unsheathed sword, shot lightning-fast towards Chen Shouyi’s pupil.

In an instant, the situation changed.

At the critical moment, Chen Shouyi turned his head with difficulty, and the Long Spear tore through his Armor, grazing his skull, leaving a deep bloodstain on his head.

Chen Shouyi hurriedly forced it away with his sword.

...

Their fighting styles were vastly different.

The Lord of Lightning moved swiftly like a bolt, as precise and efficient as a highly accurate machine, elusive and enigmatic.

Meanwhile, Chen Shouyi’s attacks were violent, and every move caused the heavens and the earth to tremble.

Their battle in mid-air was frenzied, and wherever they passed, the air was reduced to elementary particles, enveloped in a glaring light. The energy released was akin to the explosion of atomic bombs with tens of thousands of yields per second.

Here, not to mention anyone ordinary, even Gods with ordinary Weak Divine Power would be shattered if they ventured too close.

Below, an empty city.

Countless buildings torn apart by shockwaves were destroyed, with huge chunks of concrete rolling and crashing in the ferocious winds. Amid this disaster likened to a nuclear strike, even the sturdiest structures fared no better than blocks of tofu.

"Boom!"

A massive giant plummeted down like a meteor.

Just as He landed, a blurred phantom raced against the shockwave, rapidly charging towards the giant.

Now, the Lord of Lightning’s face was devoid of previous confidence and became fully grim. This abomination was wholly on par with Him, with both defense and power frighteningly formidable.

Despite His repeated successes, all He managed was to cause slight injuries, not harming the essence.

When did the Earth birth such an existence?

Or perhaps He came from Tamu!

"Boom!"

The ground was plowed by Chen Shouyi’s sword into a trench that was more than ten meters wide and five or six meters deep. The Lord of Lightning swiftly darted to the side, and the fierce airflow dissipated even before approaching.

Due to being far from the Spatial Passage, Chen Shouyi’s body had shrunk significantly, now only forty meters tall, yet His power was still enough to crush the Lord of Lightning.

"Even Powerful Divine Power is no more than this. How about I fall back a step, you kneel and call me daddy, and I grant you a way out?" Chen Shouyi sneered.

"Courting death!"

The Lord of Lightning was infuriated upon hearing this. He pointed with His hand, unleashing all His Divine Power.

"Thunder Shackles!"

As soon as the words fell, countless thick, golden lightning bolts appeared out of thin air, chaining Chen Shouyi unexpectedly and tightly. The terrifying energy penetrated His body, making Him numb all over.

Meanwhile, the Lord of Lightning pressed forward, the Long Spear swiftly stabbing towards His brow.

"Abomination, it’s over! Let me grant you eternal death."

Chen Shouyi’s face twisted, muscles bulging all over. The lightning shackles abruptly broke. He raised His Shield, protecting His forehead, simultaneously linking His mind to His Armor. Golden patterns lit up one by one on the Armor, and a feeling of effortless control arose.

In the next moment, His body seemed to defy inertia, transforming from stillness to rapid motion, meeting the Lord of Lightning’s attack head-on.

Just recently confident, the Lord of Lightning saw this anomaly and His expression drastically changed.

It must be said His reaction speed was immensely quick. In the blink of an eye, He unleashed all His Divine Power, attempting to dodge.

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

As Chen Shouyi lunged, the distance between them was less than twenty meters. Such distances for both Chen Shouyi and the Lord of Lightning were nearly as if facing off directly, with no room to evade.

"Boom!"

Like Mars colliding with Earth.

Accompanied by an intense light, the Lord of Lightning, together with His Spear and body, was viciously launched.

This time, there was no good fortune like the last. He felt excruciating pain all over, His bones unsure of how many were broken. Before He could react, He found His leg had been grabbed.

In the next moment, the world inverted, His body was lifted and brutally hurled to the ground. Millions of tons of rubble and dust abandoned Earth’s gravity, flying skyward.

His heart trembled with dread finally feeling fear.

He unleashed all His Divine Power, attempting to break free, but as soon as He thought to act.

He was again smacked hard against the ground.

Chen Shouyi’s expression was violent, gripping His leg and madly smashing the ground.

Blinding flashes filled His vision, temperatures soared over tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, with continuous explosions, shockwaves sweeping in all directions.

The Lord of Lightning’s struggles grew progressively weaker, eventually fading away.

Chen Shouyi stopped only after smashing dozens of times, panting heavily. He glanced at the Lord of Lightning, now a heap of mangled flesh, and tossed Him aside, sitting on the ground, somewhat drained.

He looked up at the sky. The once vast clouds had been dispersed by the battle. The scorching air carried a faint reddish hue, indicative of the previous fierce combat.

He found His heart surprisingly calm.

Neither excited by surviving nor joyful at defeating a formidable foe, only a sense of detachment and weariness from witnessing countless events.

He glanced at the pile that used to be the powerful Divine Power Lord of Lightning.

Loneliness awaits the master!

This is likely what it feels like to be invincible in the world.
