Chapter 818 435_2
Or rather, since arriving near the White Jade Bridge, he hadn't felt anything, as if the Murong brothers had vanished into thin air right there.
Thinking of the Murong brothers, Duan Yun quickened his pace.
He soon entered the clouds of the White Jade Stairs, and this made the previously blurred outlines of the celestial beings become clear.
These were figures with giant-like stature, swirling lights around them, vibrant garments, exuding immortal energy.
But their heads weren't human; they were of various animals.
It's estimated that the twelve zodiac animals were all there, with some being particularly terrifying, like dragons, snakes, rats, and ducks, all with round faces and pointed chins.
These "immortal gods" with animal heads stood there, staring at Duan Yun, thunder booming around them, as if ready to strike him to ashes with a heavenly tribulation at any moment.
Duan Yun felt an invisible heaviness on him, like an unseen specter pressing down, making him somewhat uncomfortable.
He knew it was likely the aura of an extremely powerful entity.
Upon reaching there, on either side of the jade stone stairs, were piles of statues of immortal gods.
All these statues had human bodies and animal heads; some had horse faces with pockmarked faces, some looked like upturned-nosed skinnies, and some had round faces and pointed chins, all hideously ugly.
To some extent, this reflected the ridiculously distorted aesthetic of the place's owner.
In front, there was a great outpouring of golden light, and the clouds dissipated, revealing a massive golden figure.
It was a woman with a round face and pointed chin, with two golden ropes tied around her, binding something resembling a merit wheel to her back.
The golden light was emanating from that merit wheel, dazzlingly bright.
In the face of this golden radiance, the woman looked down with disdain as if she ruled over everything as an immortal god.
Seeing Duan Yun, she spoke, "Since you've met the Mother, why don't you bow?"
The enormous pressure surged forward, the golden light from the woman's back intensified, causing cracks under Duan Yun's advancing steps on the jade stairs.
"Why don't you bow!"
"Why don't you bow!"
"Why don't you bow!"
...
The surrounding celestial beings with animal heads all scolded in unison, their voices overlapping.
"Bow to your spicy wall!"
"Bow to your dead fat pig face?"
"Has no one told your Mother that you're unspeakably ugly!"
"It's a wonder your Mother didn't pinch you to death seeing you look like this!"
Duan Yun lashed out with a torrent of curses, all genuine, without the least bit of tactic.
Such words ironically had the most impact, as the once god-like oppressive aura was shattered.
The round-faced fat woman's face alternated between red and green, unable to contain herself, she let out an ugly pig-like shriek—"Ah!"
She was infuriated!
In her rage, the sky roiled with clouds!
Rumble!
Tremendous bursts of electricity fell.
The lightning seemed like dragons, making it hard for Duan Yun to distinguish whether it was lightning or dragons.
The thunder dragon roared down from the clouds, charging at Duan Yun!
The Huangshan Golden Sword in Duan Yun's hand was already unsheathed, he raised it up.
This raise wasn't to slay the dragon, but instead acted like a lightning rod.
The Huangshan Golden Sword connected with Duan Yun was swiftly swallowed by the thunder dragon, the White Jade Stairs instantly cracked and charred, fire ignited on the jade, and Duan Yun within seemed as though he would be turned to ashes.
After the thunder dragon struck the ground, the lightning waves surged in all directions, like a sea.
When the dense dust and smoke dissipated, it revealed Duan Yun's bare upper body.
Holding the scorching Huangshan Golden Sword, he burped and said, "This electricity is quite pure, any more to come?"
When heading to Leizhou, Duan Yun had used the Heavenly Thunder Body Charge in a small town beneath Snow Mountain. It could only be said that his body's capacity for containing lightning was already strong, but the electricity still seemed insufficient, so every spring and summer, Duan Yun would seek chances to recharge.
Just now, his body, already low on electrical power, was fully charged by the thunder dragon's power of lightning. Now every cell of his was filled with the power of thunder and lightning.
If it weren't that the demon electricity within his body was domineering enough to devour and assimilate most of the attracted lightning, Duan Yun might have overflowed with electricity, foaming at the mouth.
At this moment, with a flick of his hand, the excess lightning overflowed from his body, forming tiny electric dragons swirling around him.
After such a strike, not only was Duan Yun unharmed, he even transformed the lightning for his own use, making the Thunder God and Mother and those "immortal gods" reveal peculiar expressions.
And Duan Yun continued asking, "I'm asking you, where are the Murong brothers? If they are just a bit short of hair, later when I kill you, I'll go light on you."
The round-faced, pointed-chin Thunder God and Mother's body shivered, the golden light from the merit wheel on her back intensified, she laughed, "Old Demon Duan, since you are so eager to know where he is, accompany him."
"This Mother shall entomb you within the divine statue!"
As she spoke, she extended her hand, a Thunder Giant Hammer appeared in her hand.
With a wave of the Thunder God and Mother's hand, the eerie blue hammer powered by lightning radiated golden sparks.
The electric light formed into a large golden blade, slashing towards Duan Yun with unrestrainable speed.
As Duan Yun moved, the electric light blade followed suit.
At that moment, Duan Yun had realized that this blade was alive, and it wouldn't be easy to dodge.
Once swordsmanship reaches a high level, Sword Qi is inherently alive and can move at one's will.
Since it was hard to evade, there was no need to dodge!
"Heart-to-Heart Clasp!"
Duan Yun's sword and blade simultaneously unsheathed, forming a clamp shape, clamping onto the golden electric light.
With a boom, a shockwave rolled.
The knife light honed from the golden electric light was clamped, yet the knife light continued sweeping to the side.
Duan Yun's feet slid, shattering the ground, sliding backward.
As a thud was heard, under the gaze of all the "immortal gods", this man who feared not the thunder was slammed into the god statue beside the jade stone stairs.
Although the god statue suffered a heavy blow, it wasn't damaged; rather, it was intact in locking up Duan Yun.
"Hahaha!"
"A mere mortal dares to contend against the Mother."
"Mother, Mother, Heaven and Earth, I alone am supreme!"
...
At this time, a rat-headed immortal was particularly enthusiastic, even pulling out a flute to play.
However, in the next moment, a boom was heard, the statue initially imprisoning Duan Yun suddenly and violently expanded like swelling dough.
"You demon, think you can trap Grandpa this way!"
With a "bang!" the statue exploded, most of its fragments turned into streaks of light, striking the rat-headed immortal's face, turning him into a smoking pockmarked face, making him howl in pain.
One of the statues, observing this scene, wore a look of shock.
This expression naturally belonged to the Murong brothers.
Yes, he was trapped inside this strange statue.
"Doesn't make sense, we're both renowned young heroes, if Young Hero Duan can break free, why can't I?"
"Break for me!"
Having escaped, Duan Yun soared into the sky, arriving above the round-faced Thunder God and Mother.
"Trifling skill, dare show off! In a moment, once I cut you, I'll shove you into a sow's anus!"
"Ten-layered! Spring Rain!"
With a flick of the dark blue famous blade in Duan Yun's hand, ten-layered Spring Rain Sword Qi symbolizing suffering turned into dense red lines, piercing towards the round-faced Thunder God and Mother.
The red lines, like red rain, covered a massive area.
But the round-faced Thunder God and Mother seemingly was an agile heavy-duty tank woman.
Her feet moved the clouds beneath her, propelling her in an almost cloud-riding manner, at amazing speed.
With her speed, it seemed she could escape before the "red rain" fell.
However, two breaths later, a horrified pig-slaughter-like scream was heard.
Moments ago, the golden electric light she slashed was alive, how could Duan Yun's ten-layered Spring Rain be dead?
As she was fleeing, a gust of wind arose in the red rain, transforming into a biased directional wind rain.
This sidestep precisely hit the Thunder God and Mother's escape path, shredding her into a sieve.
Perhaps it's because the Thunder God and Mother had a very loud voice, the cries were so miserable they pierced Duan Yun's eardrums with pain.
At this moment, her already exceedingly fat body began to swell.
Seeing this, Duan Yun couldn't help but mutter, "This dead fat woman's not gonna explode, is she?"
