Chapter 168: Resounding Slaps (1/2)

Chapter 168: Resounding Slaps

Song Que roared angrily and got up once again. He used his palm as a saber, causing a startling wind as he chopped toward Xiao Chen’s neck.

“Pa!” Ao Jiao reacted by giving him another slap, slapping Song Que’s left cheek this time. This slap not only caused his face to swell up, it caused the Essence in his body to dissipate.

“Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Let me go, otherwise, I will make sure you live a life worse than death!” Song Que yelled out hoa.r.s.ely in pain. His right leg moved around as he tried to struggle free of Ao Jiao’s right hand.

[TL note: Do remember Song Que’s leg was still being held by Ao Jiao’s left hand. She did not let go of him when he was knocked back. Imagine a ping-pong ball that is tied to a paddle.]

However, Ao Jiao’s thumb pressed on Song Que’s foot sole in a strange place. The result of this was that the surging Essence in his body was unable to flow to the meridians in his right leg.

Ao Jiao snorted coldly, “You still dare to retort, impudent!”

“Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!”

Her right hand was continually slapping Song Que. His brain was being knocked around like waves on the sea, shaking left and right continuously. His face was swollen like a balloon, he was as pitiful as he could be.

Immediately, at the foot of the mountain, everyone had their jaws wide open. They looked at the scene in disbelief. There was only the sound of slapping coming non-stop from the foot of the mountain.

“Pu Ci!”

Song Que could finally no longer endure and was about to vomit a mouthful of blood. Ao Jiao revealed a disgusted expression and raised her left hand, raising Song Que up in the air and avoiding the blood.

“Bang!” There was a loud sound as Ao Jiao held Song Que like a piece of wood and slammed him onto the ground violently.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Ao Jiao playfully raised Song Que up and then slammed him on the left side, then the right… Her speed got faster and faster, in the blink of an eye, she had already slammed him down an unknown number of times.

This was a full-fledged Martial King! How could he be played around with by someone like a toy? Everyone felt that it was absurd and simply not realistic.

However, there were a few people who were careful in their observations. They discovered it was not that Song Que became weaker but it was that Xiao Chen becoming stronger; Xiao Chen was now like a different person when compared to earlier, his strength now was unfathomable.

“Is it became of the saber?” someone said in an uncertain tone, finally someone had figured out the crux of the problem.

“It is very likely, it is possible that some powerful figure was sealed within the saber and was released by Liu Ruyue’s Listening To the Sword and Communicating With It.”

When Xiao Chen, who was conscious, saw all this, he was incredibly shocked as well. Although he knew Ao Jiao was very strong, he never expected the Thunder Emperor’s Weapon Spirit, Ao Jiao, to be this strong.

Ao Jiao is actually strong enough to treat a peak Martial King like a toy. How strong exactly was the Thunder Emperor back then? What kind of earth-shattering fight could cause him to be forced into a dead end?

“Boom!”

Just as Xiao Chen was thinking, Song Que’s body suddenly released an intense light. He immediately turned into a long saber releasing a bright light. With a ‘zeng’ sound, he escaped from Ao Jiao’s hand.

“This is the technique which only Martial Kings and above can grasp—Martial Spirit Fusion. He actually dared to reveal his Martial Spirit.” Xiao Chen looked at the long saber s.h.i.+ning with a bright like and felt surprised.

As far as everyone knew, the Martial Spirit was the most crucial support for a cultivator. If the Martial Spirit was destroyed, the cultivator’s cultivation would be destroyed, turning him into a true cripple.

Unless they had no other choice, no one would materialize their Martial Spirit. Now that Xiao Chen thought about it, Song Que indeed did not have any other choice. However, Song Que’s Martial Spirit seemed quite ordinary, it was simply an out of fas.h.i.+on long saber.

The long saber turned into a flash of light as it quickly flew up into the sky. Then with a loud boom, it turned back into Song Que. The saber he had in his hand earlier was already gone, instead, there was now a resplendent long saber.

This long saber was Song Que’s Martial Spirit. Song Que’s aura was raised significantly after he materialized his Martial Spirit, increasing the pressure others experienced. Hidden within his aura was a strand of a Martial Monarch’s aura.

“Mount Tai Suppression!” Song Que shouted as he looked at Xiao Chen, a boundless anger flas.h.i.+ng on his swollen face.

A huge majestic mountain appeared behind Song Que. There were countless flowers and forests on it—it was covered in greenery. When one looked carefully at it, they could even discover some birds and beasts within the mountain.

This mysterious phenomenon could actually materialize living creatures. Xiao Chen looked at the huge mountain that was rapidly falling towards his head. He felt extremely shocked, and he did not know how Ao Jiao was going to deal with it.

It was as though there really was a mountain pressing down towards the ground. The surrounding cultivators all felt a huge pressure, as though that huge mountain was pressing onto their heads. They immediately fled in all directions.

Ao Jiao’s expression did not change, in fact, she revealed a faint smile. She stretched out Xiao Chen’s hands and the Lunar Shadow Saber stuck in the ground returned to his hands.

“Rumble…!”

The instant Ao Jiao held the Lunar Shadow Saber again, the sky turned dark. Countless dark clouds rolled over, covering the sky and blocking the sun; it had completely blocked out the sun.

Within the dark clouds, thunder crackled. Instantly, hundreds of thousands of lightning bolts appeared.

The lightning tore apart the dark sky, it was like ten thousand stampeding horses. It had a boundless majestic aura as it lit up the dark sky, turning it incomparably resplendent.

The electricity all gathered on Ao Jiao and instantly disappeared; the surroundings turned dark again. All this happened within an instant, resulting in the surrounding people feeling that it was not real.
