Heaven's Devourer

Chapter 1685: Meteorological Rod

Electric vortex heavenly rule.

Everlasting Lightning Wings.

All centered on Lei Tianyuan’s Return of Deity and Devil Mystique. The combination of all three culminated in a stupendous power that thoroughly shattered the void where Wu Yu was, even right under his feet. The crowd cheered.

This was the strongest move used so far in the Immortal Emperor Trials!

"Lei Tianyuan is the son of the Father of Thunder and Mother of Lightning indeed. The two of them have truly raised a terror."

"Indeed. Lei Tianyuan could even pose a difficulty for a second tier immortal emperor."

"I think Wu Yu is done for now. Even if he uses the same move he did to kill Mo Liyin, it won’t be enough."

"Yea. Wu Yu was only able to kill Mo Liyin because of his joining with the mystical dragon immortal beast. Now? He’s too weak!"

The immortal emperors commented. They were as biased against Wu Yu as they were biased towards Lei Tianyuan. They refused to even consider the possibility of an upset.

Instead, it was the Mettle Sky immortal emperors who jolted.

Lei Tianyuan’s move was something that even a good number of them could not stop. Let alone a mere 9-heavens immortal king like Wu Yu.

They were naturally hoping that Wu Yu could win, but the sheer power of Lei Tianyuan’s move seemed to have eradicated Wu Yu’s chances in one sweep. Besides, Lei Tianyuan had not even used an epochal immortal treasure, and was already able to call forth such power. It was impressive indeed.

Amidst the cries and nerves of the crowd, Wu Yu stood implacable.

Of course, he could sense Lei Tianyuan’s tremendous power, but he was not afraid.

"Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, change!"

As the culmination of electrical attacks was about to hit him, Wu Yu used Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to grow to his maximum size, becoming a giant in Giant Astral Prison.

Closely following this, he used sanctified flesh heavenly rule and crusader heavenly rule to further fortify his body.

At this moment, it was possible to tank this attack even without Luo Pin’s Heavenly Dragon Unification.

"Doppelganger heavenly rule!"

1 million doppelgangers burst out of his body. The void itself had been on the verge of collapsing, but now the clones appeared to fight back the lightning.

Electric vortex heavenly rule and Everlasting Lightning Wings whipped up a staggering destruction, but it was countered by the power of Wu Yu’s 1 million doppelgangers, and they canceled each other out.

Giant Astral Prison returned back to a clear field again.

Wu Yu seemed to have calmly dealt with Lei Tianyuan’s attacks again, and now some of the spectators were starting to worry again.

Father of Thunder and Mother of Lightning looked at each other with serious expressions.

They had been extremely confident about their son Lei Tianyuan’s abilities. And yet Wu Yu had used a mixture of his own heavenly rule powers in conjunction with Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to stop Lei Tianyuan’s terrifying attacks, proving his own strength.

"Seems like he has to pull out the Meteorological Rod."

Father of Thunder said mildly: "Seems like this new disciple of the Patriarch Bodhi is quite something indeed, to force out Tianyuan’s Meteorological Rod."

"Well, it’s the Patriarch Bodhi after all. How bad could he be?"

Mother of Lightning chuckled as well, but still seemed unconcerned about the outcome. "The stronger this Wu Yu is, the greater an impression our Tianyuan will make when he defeats him. It would instead be lackluster if he beat him in one hit."

"True, true."

Father of Thunder laughed back as well.

Yang Jian and Yang Qiang were watching this battle closely.

"Yang Qiang, how are they compared to you?"

Yang Jian asked his own son emotionlessly.

Yang Qiang replied indifferently: "Of course I’m better. If that’s all they have, I’ll only need half a joss stick’s burning time to beat them!"

"Good."

Yang Jian nodded, and said no more.

On the other side, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li and Li Tianji were watching.

Li Tianji did not want to see Wu Yu gain any popularity in the Immortal Emperor Trials.

"Hmph, if it was me, Wu Yu wouldn’t be able to milk the crowd at all! Pity that Lei Tianyuan isn’t weak, and Wu Yu won’t be getting through. Seems like it will be difficult to teach him a lesson after all!"

Li Tianji complained: "Grandfather, do you think the Patriarch Bodhi purposely separated me from him so that we wouldn’t clash? After all, he’s probably afraid that I’ll humiliate his disciple. That would make a poor showing."

"Keke, the Patriarch Bodhi’s fairness is beyond question. That much, Grandfather still believes. You just need to perform well, and the Immortal Emperor Trials’ championship will be yours."

Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li continued with a smile: "Tianji, my boy. Look at Lei Tianyuan’s skill and tell me - how do you judge your chances against him?"

"100 percent of course."

Li Tianji replied carelessly: "Besides Yang Qiang, the rest are not even worth my time!"

Perhaps only he, among all of the competitors, could make such a bold statement.

If the other immortal emperors heard this, they would be unhappy as well. If Father of Thunder and Mother of Lightning, Dong Hua Great Emperor Lord, Mysterious Spiritual Dipper Empress and the others heard Li Tianji call their own children trash, they would be angry indeed.

Of course, these were words for Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li alone.

All along, he had protected Li Tianji, smoothing over the countless enmities that he would have otherwise incurred. Even so, there were many who did not like him, but simply tolerated him for Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li’s sake.

The battle continued.

Lei Tianyuan was getting frustrated that the best combination of his Mystique with heavenly rule powers was still unable to finish Wu Yu off.

He finally unleashed his epochal immortal treasure: Meteorological Rod!

This was a 9-zhang long rod, encrusted with 9 electrical jewels and sheathed in purple lightning. Each gem held a vast Dry Lightning World within.

An enormous amount of Heaven’s Thunder was stored within the Dry Lightning Worlds. The weapon, especially in Lei Tianyuan’s hands, was a real menace.

Lei Tianyuan with the Meteorological Rod was on a completely different level than before.

"It’s the Meteorological Rod!"

Lei Tianyuan stared at Wu Yu with a belligerent look. "I had thought to keep this for the semi-finals, or even the finals. But now it seems like I’ll have to bring it out to beat you. You should feel honored to lose to the Meteorological Rod!"

"Meteorological Rod, or Mouth-moving-a-lot Rod?"

Wu Yu laughed.

"You!"

Lei Tianyuan was seething with anger.

However, the battle was won by defeating Wu Yu, and getting to the next round. Therefore, he decided to shut his mouth.

His eyes were dead set on Wu Yu as he brandished the Meteorological Rod. Gathering a deadly combination of wind and lightning, he sent it flying otu towards Wu Yu. "Evolved Electrofield!"

The nine jewels on his Meteorological Rod glowed, calling forth an ancient lightning power that materialized as an Evolved Electrofield.

The Evolved Electrofield destroyed all that was within it, and flew out towards Wu Yu!

It was much more destructive compared to his electric vortex heavenly rule and Everlasting Lightning Wings!

The Patriarch Bodhi’s disciples broke out in cold sweat, some of them even praying for Wu Yu.

Wu Yu was the only champion for the mortal-born immortals. The others had more or less been cleaned out in the first round.

Wu Yu was strong, but compared to Lei Tianyuan, who was stronger?

If Wu Yu lost here, it would be a pity. The immortal emperor descendants would laugh to no end, especially the berk Li Tianji.

Wu Yu had already been swallowed up by the Evolved Electrofield, which was about to explode, destroying Wu Yu alongside the void.

"Devouring heavenly rule!"

Wu Yu finally used his final heavenly rule power. Devouring heavenly rule sprouted froth like a bamboo shoot after rain, bursting out and devouring the lightning around Wu Yu’s body.

Although Evolved Electrofield was deadly, its power required a build-up, and was unable to finish Wu Yu off immediately.

With devouring heavenly rule in effect, Evolved Electrofield could not evolve easily. As long as any electricity got near Wu Yu, it was devoured up, and could not hurt him one bit.

Of course, Lei Tianyuan did not know this from the outside. The way he saw it, he only had to keep Evolved Electrofield up for a certain period of time, and Wu Yu would be reduced to ash within it.

Suddenly, a golden flash emerged from the Evolved Electrofield, whistling towards his head!

"Bedlam of Heaven and Earth!"

As Wu Yu stabilized within the heavenly rule power, he pulled out the Ruyi Jingu Bang and used its first skill!
