King of Creation-Chapter 1501 - 1486: Big Ears’ Crucial Intelligence
The Purple Thunder Gold Lamp was an artifact that Ye Zhen crafted while in the Demon Clan territory, based on the Purple Flame Golden Lamp, incorporating a rare Thunder Fire Jade Marrow and countless amplifying formations, resulting in a low-grade suppressing device.
Ye Zhen named it the Purple Thunder Gold Lamp, also known as the Thunder Fire Gold Lamp, and its power was extraordinary.
When Ye Zhen first completed the Thunder Fire Gold Lamp, he conducted experiments. For example, against the Great Demon Master Yue Dao, a member of the Demon Clan at the sixth stage of the Dark Palace Realm, Ye Zhen’s Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire only lightly injured him.
But if Ye Zhen activated the Thunder Fire Gold Lamp to unleash the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire, just one strike would severely injure Yue Dao.
Bear in mind, the Moon Demon Clan within the Demon Clan had inherently strong defenses, and at that time, Ye Zhen’s cultivation was only at the late stage of the Dao Entrance Realm.
Now, with Ye Zhen’s cultivation at the second stage of the Divine Communication Realm, once again activating the Thunder Fire Gold Lamp that had been nurtured for years, the power was unimaginable.
Boom!
The first strike of Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire fiercely struck Yun Ben’s palm, which covered the entire Five Immortals Arena, and the spirit light on Yun Ben’s palm began to dissipate rapidly.
However, after Ye Zhen unleashed the Thunder Fire Gold Lamp, he continuously attacked with Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire strikes like fire pillars, aimed at Yun Ben’s palm.
At the moment the third strike of Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire hit, a loud explosion echoed as the glow of Yun Ben’s mid-grade town armor flickered rapidly.
Seeing this, Yun Ben’s face changed dramatically.
In almost an instant, more than a dozen Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire strikes pounded continuously, and the radiant glow of Yun Ben’s full-body suppressing artifact dissipated instantly, allowing Ye Zhen’s Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire to strike directly at Yun Ben’s flesh.
To everyone’s surprise, Yun Ben’s physical strength was actually more formidable than his mid-grade artifact.
Under Ye Zhen’s Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire, the mid-grade town artifact, used in conjunction with his divine skill Fatian Xiangdi, was rapidly destroyed. But as the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire struck Yun Ben’s palm, the flames merely charred his hand, not reducing it to charcoal immediately.
Others were shocked, but Yun Ben was stupefied.
He couldn’t have anticipated that in an instant, Ye Zhen not only broke his trump card but also destroyed the artifact meticulously prepared for him by his clan.
But now, the issue was no longer about the artifact, but rather how to survive.
A piercing pain emanated from his palm, and Yun Ben was acutely aware that the edges of his hand had been turned completely to charcoal by just one strike of Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire. But with dozens or even hundreds of such strikes coming down, even with his physical strength, death was certain.
Yun Ben, also a battle-hardened warrior, quickly identified where his current crisis lay.
This divine skill of Fatian Xiangdi was indeed formidable, typically able to crush opponents like ants, but against a foe like Ye Zhen, it turned him into a sitting duck!
With a thought, Yun Ben’s towering thousand-meter figure began to shrink rapidly, reducing to just three or four meters tall in an instant.
While shrinking, Yun Ben’s figure blurred, transforming into an illusion with trails of afterimages, attempting to evade Ye Zhen’s Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire strikes.
"Hmph, trying to escape? No way!"
Almost instinctively, as Ye Zhen’s divine sense sank, he took a step forward.
A circle of silver radiance spread out from Ye Zhen as the center in all directions.
Geomagnetic Field!
At the moment the silver radiance spread, the black-robed steward levitating above the Five Immortals Arena’s guardian barrier suddenly sank, nearly plummeting from the sky.
Suffering alongside were the martial artists floating in all directions watching the battle, whose bodies simultaneously dipped, colliding with each other and causing immediate chaos.
In the same instant, Yun Ben’s figure also plummeted.
The Geomagnetic Field felt as if a mountain had been hung on his feet, abruptly slowing his speed.
His speed was extremely fast, and this sudden descent merely slightly slowed him down, but in a contest of experts, life and death are decided in that slight moment.
In a flash, the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire he had just evaded bombarded his back, where the mid-grade town armor had broken, and the successive strikes on his back shattered his protective spirit force. The purple flames erupted violently on his back.
Even more critical was the strand of thunder power contained within the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire.
This strand of thunder power generally had little effect if Yun Ben had protective spirit force or was defended by mid-grade armor, but when the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire struck directly on Yun Ben’s flesh, the terror of this thunder power was fully realized.
A tingling numbness instantly jolted Yun Ben’s entire body, combined with the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire’s assault, his five internal organs and six hollow organs were wracked with pain, causing Yun Ben to momentarily lose speed.
This momentary loss of speed essentially sealed Yun Ben’s fate.
Over a hundred Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire strikes, like a fire dragon, continuously pounded his back, exploding relentlessly.
Even though his physical strength was incredibly formidable, having cultivated the Innate Battle Body, under the relentless strikes of Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire, his back was swiftly charred, revealing pale golden bones inside.
But under the bombardment of Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire, Yun Ben’s bones also started to turn black.
And the strands of thunder power rampaged through Yun Ben’s body, leaving him unable to muster any semblance of divine sense!
A hint of hopeless, bitter smile spread across Yun Ben’s face; he never thought he would die here.
Especially being slain by a mere second-stage Divine Communication Realm youngster he had looked down upon.
Truly...
As a direct descendant of the Ancient Demon Clan, even if he was a tenth-generation descendant, he remained one of the most crucial bloodlines for his clan, possessing countless life-saving means.
In his memory, in such circumstances, at the very least, he had three life-saving methods.
But damn it, he couldn’t use them, he had no chance to use them.
The terrifying thunder power contained within the incessantly striking Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire, every time it blasted into his five internal organs and six hollow organs from his back, made him feel as if he were on the verge of life and death. Let alone gathering his Divine Soul Power to activate a life-saving method, even summoning spiritual power was challenging.
"Is this really how I’m going to die..."
Yun Ben’s face was full of sorrow and reluctance, but as a direct descendant of the Ancient Bloodline, and a direct lineage of the Gold-Cracking Cloud Leopard clan, he possessed a pride that others could not comprehend.
The Gold-Cracking Cloud Leopard clan, even in death, even if they bleed a single drop of blood, would never beg for mercy, nor would they admit defeat or plead for life.
"It seems that I’ve underestimated the heroes of the world. Perhaps the monkey was right, I will definitely tumble back down the mountain on this outing... But, the monkey couldn’t have foreseen that I wouldn’t return..."
With a silent sigh in his heart, Yun Ben closed his eyes, awaiting that final moment...
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Bang bang bang!
The sound of air being torn apart and flames exploding rang out continuously, but Yun Ben was unexpectedly aware that he was not dead!
The sound of the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire exploding went on and on, yet Yun Ben was still alive!
It was important to know that the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire was the terrifying flame from which even his Innate Divine Soul could not escape.
Instinctively, Yun Ben opened his eyes and looked back, his expression froze.
He saw Ye Zhen’s face turning red, the Divine Soul Waves surrounding him surged like a stormy sea, and in an instant, Yun Ben understood what Ye Zhen was doing.
Under the violent control of Ye Zhen’s Divine Soul Power, the dozens of Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire he released were all hurled towards the sky.
To be precise, they were hurled towards the Guardian Barrier of the Five Immortals Arena in the high air!
With banging sounds, the Guardian Barrier of the Five Immortals Arena shook violently.
This frightened the defenders of the Five Immortals Arena and the black-robed stewards. The Guardian Barrier of the Five Immortals Arena was constructed by drawing on the Earth Vein. If it were truly broken and needed to be restored, the cost would be tremendous.
The black-robed steward shrieked and swiftly darted into the Guardian Barrier, his hands waving to attack the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire.
One after another, the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fires were extinguished in the hands of the black-robed steward, but with each extinction of a Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire, the black-robed steward screamed, as the Thunder Power contained in the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire was indeed unbearable.
Now, he could understand Yun Ben’s earlier feelings.
A few moments later, as his clothes turned into ashes, revealing his chest full of hair, the black-robed steward tremblingly took out a garment and draped it over himself, then with a dark face announced, "Di Kuohai challenges Yun Ben, Di Kuohai wins!"
The martial artists watching were all dumbfounded, staring blankly at the result on the field!
Di Kuohai actually won?
Yun Ben actually lost!
The talented warrior of the Eighth Stage of the Dark Palace Realm from the Demon Race, who was at the Second Stage of the Divine Communication Realm, actually lost to the one from the Eighth Stage?
Many people still felt as if they were in a dream.
Until the black-robed steward announced the result, many martial artists awoke as if from a dream, then cried out miserably like pigs being slaughtered.
"My spirit stones!"
"My high grade spirit stones!"
Many people, believing Yun Ben would surely win, bet the maximum of ten thousand high grade spirit stones on him, aiming to gain those extra five hundred high grade spirit stones with ease.
But who would have thought they would lose it all?
At that moment, countless people wailed!
When placing their bets earlier, everyone had bet on Yun Ben, hoping for an easy gain, but who would have thought...
Only the shopkeepers at the betting platform of the Five Immortals Arena wore expressions of oddity.
The income of today was simply...
Almost all the bets placed by bettors directly turned into net income, be it one or two blocks or ten thousand high grade spirit stones, averaging five hundred stones per person, even if only half of them bet, it was still tens of millions of high grade spirit stones.
This seemingly set a new record for net income from bets in the history of the Five Immortals Arena...
The wailing and the shock were visible, yet on the platform, Yun Ben’s expression was as bitter as could be.
To be alive was a blessing, but the feeling of being spared a life path by another was unbearable for a proud genius like him.
"Why?"
"Why spare me!" Yun Ben’s face was filled with bitterness.
Ye Zhen’s lips curled into a slight smile; the reason he spared Yun Ben at the critical moment was not due to kindness or for the Blue Gold Giant Sword, but because of some crucial intelligence Big Ears Nie Ting reported to him during the battle.
"Remember, Yun Ben, you owe me a favor. Tonight, I’ll be waiting for you at Tianyi Restaurant!" Ye Zhen declared.
"Tianyi Restaurant?"
With a bitter face, Yun Ben nodded heavily, "I remember, I, Yun Ben, owe you a life!"
