Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1365: Chapter 1140: Divine Sect Divine Thunder

Dugu Jiu maintained his usual expression. With a wave of his hand, a myriad of swords descended, the boundless sword light falling like a rain of destruction upon the six Flame Demons.

These terrifyingly powerful Flame Demons, with their formidable bodies, didn’t have time to make more moves before being sliced apart by the sword light!

However, after the sword rain, the many fragmented Flame Demons did not dissipate. Instead, they transformed into burning flames, converging together to reform the Flame Demon bodies.

Aside from the dimming flames on their bodies, not a single trace of injury was left!

"So they’re energy bodies too, with self-repair capabilities?"

Dugu Jiu raised an eyebrow. These Flame Demons were unexpectedly similar to the Molten Rock Mother Beast, also being energy bodies.

"Roar!"

Having their bodies shattered right away, the Flame Demon that recovered first roared in anger, impatiently transforming into a burst of fire shadow to rush at Dugu Jiu.

Dugu Jiu raised his right hand, uniting the sword lights in the air into one, bringing down a sword to meet the attack.

"Bang!"

The clash of fist and sword, the massive fist of the High Level Flame Demon was sliced nearly in half by the sword light, exploding into bits of fierce flame.

Yet the unexpected force exploding from the fist also knocked Dugu Jiu back!

As the flames burned, the severed arm of the Flame Demon restored itself as before.

This is the power of an energy body!

With a punch that pushed Dugu Jiu back, all the High Level Flame Demons charged together to besiege him.

Dugu Jiu’s black eyes suddenly flickered with strands of blazing white, and in the next moment, all the differentiated sword lights were suddenly entangled with dense white lightning!

At the sight of this lightning, everyone on Heavenly Sword Peak couldn’t help but look over.

"It’s here, the Divine Thunder that Junior Brother Dugu recently obtained from the Ten Thousand Swords Thunder Pool... the legacy of our sect!"

Dugu Jiu was seen wielding a long sword entwined with blazing white lightning. With a single strike towards the approaching Flame Demon, empowered by the terrifying might of Divine Thunder, he split the Flame Demon’s chest on the spot!

The Flame Demon showed a look of shock, not expecting Dugu Jiu’s destructive power to suddenly enhance so much, nearly slicing it in two!

In a panic, the flames on the Flame Demon’s body swirled, about to repair the injuries.

But the pure white lightning at the wound "sizzled" and flashed, and the burning flames were abruptly extinguished as if erased!

"???"

The Flame Demon was stunned.

With killing intent flashing in his eyes, Dugu Jiu flipped his hand and more sword attacks fell, chopping the High Level Flame Demon entwined in flames continuously under the blazing white sword light.

In just two or three breaths, this Flame Demon was completely obliterated, returned to nothingness, not even leaving a trace of flame!

Subsequently, Dugu Jiu transformed one sword into nine, shooting electricity in all directions, effortlessly wiping out the remaining Flame Demons.

"What kind of lightning is this!"

The Molten Rock Mother Beast was shocked. The High Level Flame Demons it painstakingly nurtured with Origin Power were not only energy bodies but also had astonishing explosive power.

Yet in just a moment, they were successively slain by the opponent’s Thunder Sword Light!

All the Flame Demons attempting self-repair were unable to heal under the thunder light.

The inheritance of the Ten Thousand Sword Divine Sect, one of the Twelve Divine Thunders—the Cleansing World Divine Thunder!

As one of the most dazzling sword cultivators of the Ten Thousand Sword Divine Sect in a millennium, Dugu Jiu successfully inherited the Cleansing World Divine Thunder of the sect and advanced to the Third Stage.

Besides the terrifying power of the Divine Thunder itself, this thunder also possesses unparalleled "purification" power.

In fact, not only Ten Thousand Sword Divine Sect but also super major sects like Taishang Sect and Demon Sky Palace have top-tier divine item inheritances.

The foundational heritage of these three major sects handed down since ancient times is far beyond the reach of the other seven major sects.

Even the unexpectedly extinguished Netherworld Demon Sect possessed a legacy like the "Life Soul Divine Water".

At this moment, Dugu Jiu raised a finger, and nine sword lights that annihilated the Flame Demons swiftly shot towards the Molten Rock Mother Beast!

The Molten Rock Mother Beast, being an energy body itself, with the terrifying energy contained within its massive body, had extremely strong life force, difficult to kill against ordinary middle and low-rank King Levels.

But what it faced now, was a peak figure of the Sword Transformation Lineage of the Divine Sect, combined with the mysterious ability of the Cleansing World Divine Thunder to purify everything...

The Spirit Sword once again differentiated, and in an instant, the thousand swords and thunderbolts crisscrossed and flashed with deadly extinction!

And the Molten Rock Mother Beast in the middle was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, sealed within by the thousand swords, unable to break free despite deploying various skills.

Amid the erupting thunder fire, the heartrending screams and wails of the Molten Rock Mother Beast echoed through the sky and earth!

"It seems that this Demon King will also be slain by Junior Brother Dugu." Fu Chaosheng’s eyes brightened slightly, nodding with excitement.

In terms of aggressiveness, this Junior Brother Dugu is truly in a class of his own; it’s probably hard to find anyone at the same level to compare with him... Ah, except for Brother Su.

Luo Qingping mused for a moment and said, "If Junior Brother Dugu can keep fighting, with his immense strength, it wouldn’t matter how many enemies come, he wouldn’t be afraid. However..."

"However, the Grey Realm sent such a massive Molten Rock Beast, not to defeat Junior Brother Dugu, but to exhaust him," Xiang Yuntian interjected.

Nearby, the other Spirit Venerables’ expressions changed slightly as they looked up closely. Indeed, Dugu Jiu’s aura had noticeably declined compared to the beginning.

Most sword cultivators are like this: their aggressiveness and explosiveness are top-notch, but in terms of recovery and endurance, they fall short compared to cultivators from other Daoist Sects like the Taishang Sect or the Five Directions Temple.

Dividing Light into Swords, one into thousands, although its power is immense, the consumption is also not small.

And so far, Dugu Jiu has already fought three rounds consecutively, defeating three Demon Kings!

Even if he slays this Molten Rock Mother Beast now, his Star Power is probably already mostly depleted.

"I wonder how many more Demon Kings are hidden within those black clouds!"

Looking toward the mountain gate obscured by dense demonic energy like dark clouds covering the sky, everyone wore grave expressions.

And at this moment, within the rolling black clouds.

"If this Molten Mother doesn’t flee, it’ll probably also be slain by that sword cultivator..." A Seventh Stage Demon King, with red lips and white teeth, looking like a young child, glanced at the Molten Rock Mother Beast and chuckled, "But with its cumbersome body, fleeing might be a fanciful notion ~"

In the midst of the Demon Kings, a middle-aged man in a black robe, with a few golden streaks on his skin, raised an eyebrow.

"So, it is Divine Thunder? I thought sending the Molten Mother could exhaust this human’s Star Power in one stroke, never expected it would become unsustainable so soon."

"I think that’s not all." Chuntong looked up at the middle-aged man in black, grinning, "Even the little ghosts summoned were self-destructing, let alone the Molten Mother itself?

Yin Ju, you probably never intended for the Molten Mother to return alive from the start, right?"

The middle-aged man in black slightly turned, his eyes piercing as he gazed at Chuntong for a few seconds, then a bit of a smile appeared on his lips.

"The Upper Emperor ordered, at any cost, to conquer the southern continent and annihilate the Human King Level.

As long as this mountain gate can be breached, sacrifice is worth it... including us."

Hearing this, Chuntong met with Yin Ju’s deep, dark pupils and felt a chill rise from his spine, instantly retracting his expression with a hint of stiffness.

At this moment, accompanied by a wretched scream, the Molten Rock Mother Beast under sword light confinement had its entire body shattered into a chaotic mass of black-red lava.

"You forced me...!"

A violent and searing wave radiated from the chaotic lava form of the Molten Rock Mother Beast. Within just two or three breaths, the massive chaotic lava collapsed into a dark red ball about the height of a person, and then suddenly broke through the Thunder Sword Light’s blockade, forcing its way close to Dugu Jiu!

"Here it comes, the Molten Core Burst of a King Level Molten Rock Mother Beast," the middle-aged man in black murmured.

Many energy bodies are skilled at self-destruction because their bodies’ composition allows them to easily ignite their Star Cores, fully unleashing the terrifying energy within!

This self-destructive strike of the Molten Rock Mother Beast possesses nearly Sixth Grade power, and it is extremely swift!

"Not good, Junior Brother Dugu!"

The people from the Ten Thousand Sword Divine Sect felt the terrifying wave and were all shocked.

In midair, although Dugu Jiu was startled, he didn’t panic. He withdrew urgently, simultaneously forming a sword technique with his hands, and in the blink of an eye, numerous Thunder Sword Lights split apart, hastily forming a Sword Wheel to shield him...

"Boom!!"

The next moment, as if the earth’s core had erupted, the ejected molten lava and magma evaporated vast expanses of sky into nothingness!

The myriad of sword lights continued to shatter under such terrifying fierce flames, and finally, the hastily formed Sword Wheel could no longer hold, and Dugu Jiu was completely engulfed by the molten heat wave...

For quite a while after, the terrifying blaze gradually lessened slightly, revealing Dugu Jiu’s figure in midair.

"Sizzle sizzle!"

The pure white Cleansing World Divine Thunder surrounded Dugu Jiu, neutralizing most of the Molten Core Burst’s power.

However, Dugu Jiu’s right chest to the right arm holding the sword had already been burned to a charred red, his flesh and blood mangled!

Glancing at the severely injured right portion of his body, Dugu Jiu’s expression grew grim: "Unfortunately, I haven’t mastered the Divine Thunder well enough, or I wouldn’t have been hurt like this."

Compared to Su Yuan’s Purple Cloud Divine Thunder’s unmatched power, the Cleansing World Divine Thunder is more profound and comprehensive.

If he could fully master this thunder, he could have escaped unscathed even in the face of the Molten Rock Mother Beast’s sudden self-destruction!

However, Dugu Jiu only inherited this thunder recently and hadn’t yet practiced it to the point of proficiency.

"Taking such a hit isn’t good..."

Dugu Jiu felt his condition. The Molten Rock Mother Beast’s self-destructive strike was too sudden and fierce, not only severely injuring him but also consuming him greatly...

Yet there was hardly a moment to rest. From amidst the rolling black clouds and surging demonic energy, another intimidating Demon King descended from the heavens onto the Human Sword Platform.

Dugu Jiu glanced coldly, then gripped the longsword in front of him and charged again!
