Chapter 387: I Can Hardly Tolerate This World, I For Sure Can’t Tolerate You, Slaying The Serpent Deity
The Serpent Deity emerged from the ocean’s surface and cast a great shadow in the sky!
The residents of the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands sang their praises.
“It’s the Serpent Deity!”
However, they soon realized that something was off.
It was too wretched.
The Serpent Deity was wretched. Its scales were shattered, its body was filled with scars, and blood flowed violently from its pores.
The residents were dumbfounded to witness the Serpent Deity in such a dire state for the first time.
It was no mystery who had caused this. It was obviously Chu Kuangren, who had just fought with the Serpent Deity.
The residents were in disbelief. Chu Kuangren had caused such massive damage to the Serpent Deity!
“What did he do?” The talon-shaped nose old man gulped. He had intended to destroy Chu Kuangren through the power of the Serpent Deity. However, it looked like he had committed a grave mistake!
Never mind that Chu Kuangren could not be killed, but it looked like the Serpent Deity was now at the brink of death!
Was Chu Kuangren truly that terrifying?!
Boom…
At that moment, the ocean trembled.
An enormous waterspout surged out of the surface. On it was Chu Kuangren, who was wielding a halberd.
Chu Kuangren stared at the fleeing Serpent Deity and waved his weapon, summoning dozens of waterspouts that attempted to ensnare the Serpent Deity.
The Serpent Deity roared as it broke through the waterspouts with its massive body, shattering them into droplets of water.
However, even if it had disrupted the attack, the force of the current was still enough to bind him to the ocean’s surface. The Serpent Deity could not flee far from the ocean, what more to flee away from Chu Kuangren.
“You b*stard, let me leave! Are you going to continue until one of us is dead?” The Serpent Deity let out a sharp screech.
At that sound, the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands’ people felt goosebumps all over their bodies.
The Serpent Deity was attempting to escape!
In the face of Chu Kuangren, the Serpent Deity wanted to flee!
It was devastating news for the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands’ people. After all, the Serpent Deity was the Almighty God to them!
It could be said that without the Serpent Deity, the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands would not come close to the achievements it had today. The residents had nothing but the utmost respect for the Serpent Deity.
Even the Sages listened obediently to the Serpent Deity’s council.
Hence, seeing that their Almighty God now wanted to flee away from Chu Kuangren was an incomprehensible scene.
Their worldview was close to collapsing!
“Leave? As if you stand a chance! I said that I’m going to turn your skin into my gunny sack, so you have no choice but to die today!” Chu Kuangren sneered as he triggered the Sea King’s Halberd.
An even devastating torrential force gushed towards the Serpent Deity. The ocean began to boil, and the myriad of sea creatures trembled in fear…
It was a display of Chu Kuangren’s fury!
Now, it became the ocean’s fury too!
“Curse you! Now you’re leaving me with only this option!”
The infuriated Serpent Deity let out a deafening shriek and unleashed an explosion of Daoist Rhymes. As its veins began to protrude from its yellow eyes, a terrifying ferocious qi spread outward from its body.
“Oh, using a secret technique to boost your abilities I see.”
“So what?”
Chu Kuangren laughed mockingly.
Normally, Chu Kuangren would only stand one-tenth of a chance of beating the Serpent Deity in a battle. However, with the Sea King’s Halberd, his odds had dramatically increased to a near one hundred percent!
This was the mighty power of an Emperor’s Weapon!
“Roar!”
The Serpent Deity let out a battle roar that was infused with its powerful Daoist Rhyme. It shattered an enormous waterspout nearby before it quickly dashed in a certain direction.
It was heading toward the Illusive Mirage.
The Serpent Deity was clear that even if it had resorted to a secret technique, he was no match for the Sea King’s Halberd.
So in the spur of a moment, the Serpent Deity came up with the idea of holding the countless people and cultivators on the Illusive Mirage as hostages. Only then, Chu Kuangren may allow him to leave.
The Serpent Deity saw the human race as a pretentious species.
Since Chu Kuangren was a just and righteous person, he would definitely yield to its demand, especially when there were three thousand children on the Illusive Mirage.
“Oh no, the Serpent Deity’s coming!”
The thousands of cultivators and civilians were terrified.
However, when the Serpent Deity was close to reaching them, it crashed into an invisible barrier that blocked him from the Illusive Mirage.
Although the Illusive Mirage was shaken by the impact, it was still intact.
The hundred thousands of people on board were relieved as well.
“What’s going on?!”
The Serpent Deity was puzzled.
It was clear of its strengths.
That crash packed enough force to shatter dozens of mountains, yet the Illusive Mirage’s barrier had completely absorbed the damage!
How was the Illusive Mirage’s defensive formation so powerful?!
“Hmph, you fool.”
Chu Kuangren snarked coldly.
The Illusive Mirage was a Starlight Grade Item. The defensive formation that imbued the structure was one of the best Sage Grade mega formations around!
Chu Kuangren did not need to activate the formation. As long as there was enough kinetic energy on the Illusive Mirage, the formation would be at its maximum capacity!
Although the Serpent Deity was formidable, it could not shatter the Sage Grade mega formation!
“Now, time for you to die!”
Chu Kuangren grunted softly, and his body began to burn with crimson flames. Nine Deaths Blazing Blood Art, activated!
Chu Kuangren channeled copious amounts of energy into the Sea King’s Halberd, enhancing his ability to command the ocean.
An endless amount of ocean water was lifted into the air to form an unprecedented ferocious and magnificent Water Dragon!
The Water Dragon was more than thousands of meters in length, and it radiated a terrifying aura, instilling fear into all cultivators present, including the talon-shaped nose old man.
In the face of the Water Dragon, the Serpent Deity now seemed insignificant.
“No, no!” The Serpent Deity was fearful.
For countless years, the Serpent Deity had devoured many living beings and had grown accustomed to sensing the fear others had of it. Now, it was the Serpent Deity’s turn to be struck by fear.
It was a sense of fear that it had never felt before!
“Die!”
With a wave of Chu Kuangren’s Halberd, the Water Dragon roared, and out came a surge of water pressure that devoured the Serpent Deity.
Having devoured other beings all its life, this was the Serpent Deity’s first time becoming the prey itself. As the Water Dragon swallowed it into its tummy, the terrifying water current inside crushed the Serpent Deity’s body incessantly.
Its scales, bones, and flesh ruptured even further as the blood dyed the entire Water Dragon into a crimson color.
At last, the Water Dragon dissipated and landed back into the ocean with a boom, sending a tsunami in all directions.
All that was left floating on the ocean was the motionless body of the Serpent Deity.
Chu Kuangren grabbed his Sea King’s Halberd and came to the Serpent Deity.
“You little rat, you’re too uncanny! The world will not tolerate a being like you. You’ll surely suffer a fate that’s a thousand times worse than mine!”
The Serpent Deity stared at Chu Kuangren as it cursed in a broken voice.
“I can hardly tolerate this world, but now, I for sure cannot tolerate you!” Chu Kuangren said as he took out the Soul Retriever. Once its chain penetrated the Serpent Deity’s body, Chu Kuangren began to extract the Serpent Deity’s soul that was severely weakened by the imminent destruction of its physical body.
“Enjoy the pain that’ll be inflicted onto your soul!”
Chu Kuangren activated the Soul Retriever, releasing a surge of chilling energy that began to erode the Serpent Deity’s Soul.
As sharp, painful wails echoed throughout the realm, the Serpent Deity’s soul was eventually reduced into an endless amount of soul orbs that floated around the air.
Before these soul orbs began to fade away, Chu Kuangren activated his Universal Cauldron Physique and absorbed all the soul orbs into his body.
The Universal Cauldron Physique was capable of absorbing all forms of strange energies in this world.
A soul was one such form of strange energy!
