796: Chapter 253 Zither Emperor VS Thunder God (Part 2) 796: Chapter 253 Zither Emperor VS Thunder God (Part 2) “No, this can’t be possible,” Guti almost blurted out, finding it hard to believe his own eyes.
The once infallible Thunderstrike had produced no effect whatsoever, an unthinkable circumstance akin to a bolt from the blue for him.
Known as the Thunder God, Thor’s Hammer was his greatest reliance.
It was also the most important weapon in his rise to power amongst the strongest of the world.
Stubbornly lifting Thor’s Hammer again, this time Guti unleashed all his strength to evoke the full power of the hammer.
The sky lit up once more as a bolt of lightning, more terrifying than before, descended from the heavens, engulfing Ye Yinzhu’s body again.
Bathing in the vast radiance of the lightning, Ye Yinzhu appeared like a child of thunder reincarnated from the electric storm, his body emanating an interplay of white and purple-blue lights.
This time, his expression changed dramatically, marked by a look of utter surprise.
His face even twisted in visible distortion, and his body no longer remained as calm as before, but shook violently as if enduring immense pain.
The surrounding Lightning Element madly surged into his body.
Seeing the painful expression on Ye Yinzhu’s face, Guti’s tense features relaxed, and he heaved a sigh of relief.
This Zither Emperor was indeed powerful, able to resist the first Thunderstrike with his mere physical body.
But in the end, he was only human, with limited strength.
How could he possibly contend with the vast power of nature?
A cruel smile crept onto Guti’s face.
How could he let go of this opportunity to add insult to injury after Ye Yinzhu had embarrassed him in front of the two army tribes of the Beastman?
Without waiting for the turmoil within his body from the previous full-powered attack to settle, the light of Thor’s Hammer shone once again.
Guti was convinced that Ye Yinzhu, who could no longer hold up against the lightning, would not endure another hit.
He seemed to foresee Ye Yinzhu, just like the previous Eric Minlong, turning into charred remains and vanishing in front of Thor Hammer Fort.
From a distance, the Qin City Army also noticed the chaos here.
Almost immediately, several Sect Masters from the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans rushed out from the Qin City forces, with Ye Li leading the way.
However, their speed was still a tad too slow.
The Grim Reaper Dragon Wolf Cavalry launched their charge almost instantly, and under the leadership of Ye Hongyan, three hundred warriors sprinted toward the front lines at high speed.
Although Ye Hongyan did not understand why Yin Zhu suddenly became so vulnerable, at this moment, his only conviction was that even if he had to face death under that thunder and lightning, even if he had to use his own body to block it, he would save Ye Yinzhu at all costs.
Ye Hongyan, who had been trained from a young age by Xi Duofu to bee an iron-blooded warrior, held a deep affection for Ye Yinzhu akin to Oliveira’s, regarding him as a brother despite their lack of blood ties.
Boom——
The intense glare of the lightning flared up once again.
No matter how fast the Dragon Wolves ran, they could not outpace the speed of lightning; moreover, the Grim Reaper Dragon Wolf Cavalry was still a full ten miles from the frontline.
“Go—back—” Ye Yinzhu suddenly cried out to the heavens.
His black hair stood on end, and the lightning around him twisted violently.
As the lightning struck down once again, he swiftly removed the Divine Source Magic Robe from his body, leaving himself clad in nothing but a thin undershirt as he bathed in the glow of the lightning.
The Grim Reaper Dragon Wolf Cavalry, truly deserving their status as the Qin City First Army, halted their advance in an instant.
Not only did they stop charging forward, but they also positioned themselves in front of the battle formation, blocking the Eastern Dragon experts rushing from behind.
Ye Li felt his heart racing, for Ye Yinzhu was his only grandchild!
The sudden obstruction by the Grim Reaper Dragon Wolf Cavalry blocked his view, just as he saw Ye Yinzhu once again struck by the lightning.
His heart clenched tight, he roared, “Damn it, what are you doing?”
Ye Hongyan sat proudly atop the Dragon Wolf Prince.
His face, which had shown ripples of emotion, now settled calmly as he uttered three simple words, “Trust in him.”
Ye Li was taken aback.
By now, the Sect Masters of the Four Dynasties of Dong Long Martial Arts had reached the Grim Reaper Dragon Wolf Cavalry.
Despite their considerable individual strength, the special Death Energy emitted by the three hundred Death Soldiers gave them a feeling of insurmountability.
Ye Li glared at Ye Hongyan, his hand gripping the longsword trembling slightly, “How can you ask me to trust?”
Ye Hongyan looked directly into Ye Li’s eyes, unyielding, “Because he told us to go back.
I trust him.
The Zither Emperor is indestructible.”
Ye Li paused, suddenly realizing that he knew less about his grandson than the young man enveloped in the Breath of Death before him.
His gaze flickered for a moment, but his grip on the longsword loosened slightly.
As Ye Hongyan blocked the four Sect Masters, Ye Yinzhu’s body at the Thor Hammer Fortress underwent violent changes.
In face of the massive thunder and lightning, his skin started to show a layer of charred black, and his expression became even more pained.
Amid severe spasms, even the white light erupting from his chest began to dim considerably.
Guti let out a wild laugh, “Ye Yinzhu, didn’t you want to challenge me?
Fine, I will acmodate you.
I want to see just how many times you can withstand my thunder strikes.”
Almost manically, Guti swung his Thor’s Hammer.
Although these attacks were not charged like the earlier ones, each swing of the Thor’s Hammer still brought forth a lightning bolt thick as a thigh to brutally strike Ye Yinzhu.
Ye Yinzhu’s body reactions became increasingly violent, his skin gradually turning the color of charred coal.
Yet, his spine remained as straight as a rod—refusing to bend whatsoever and not emitting a single sound—enduring the bombardment of wild thunder with his flesh alone.
In the blink of an eye, Guti swung the Thor’s Hammer dozens of times, directing dozens of powerful strikes, close to the level of Forbidden Curses, onto the seemingly fragile body of Ye Yinzhu.
Nearly every Beastman was anticipating the figure standing below the city to fall.
However, even though the thunder and lightning assailed Ye Yinzhu’s body, he still stood erect.
The intense trembling of his body indicated that his life was still there, and he was not dead.
Guti breathed heavily.
Even with the support of the magic array and the help of Thor’s Hammer, launching so many attacks in succession still took a considerable toll on him.
His eyes shimmering with a ferocious light, he suddenly felt a special emotion—respect—for Ye Yinzhu.
To withstand the power of thunder and lightning, the terror of a Divine Artifact, and the might of heaven and earth with mere flesh; what extraordinary strength and courage that was.
Observing Ye Yinzhu’s unbent spine, Guti couldn’t help but secretly admire him.
He knew that if he were to battle this Zither Emperor under fair conditions, judging by the multiple times the latter had withstood the lightning strikes, he would absolutely not be his match.
But respect was just respect, and he would definitely not show mercy.
Taking a deep breath, he strenuously stabilized the qi and blood within his body and once again raised the Thor’s Hammer over his head.
This time, however, he did not rush to attack.
Instead, like at the very beginning, he fully stimulated the immense energy of Thor’s Hammer with his own Douqi, causing the blue-purple lightning to bee increasingly intense.
The air twisted violently, and the terrifying and oppressive presence was even more formidable than the initial attack.
While Guti was accumulating energy, the convulsions in Ye Yinzhu’s body below gradually ceased.
His life force seemed to fade away, standing motionless like a human-shaped piece of char.
Guti looked down coldly, continuously pouring his Douqi unreservedly, and said to the charred form of Ye Yinzhu, “I acknowledge you are a hero amongst humans, a true powerhouse.
Let me use the utmost strength to send you away from this world.
Dying in a shower of tears is my respect to you as the Thunder God Guti.
In your next life, don’t bee my enemy again.”
As soon as the words fell, Guti finally swung the Thor’s Hammer in his hand.
A massive near-deep purple lightning bolt, over three meters in diameter, descended from the sky, plummeting straight towards Ye Yinzhu’s body.
…
The Northernmost Wilderness.
Zi was at the forefront of the team, and behind him were the Eight Great Divine Beasts, including the Dragon Lion, along with the Behemoth and Frosty Forest legions.
The Dragon Lion’s manding ability was something even Zi had to admire.
Within a very short period, she had regathered the Magical Beasts that had fled back into the Frosty Forest in defeat.
After a brief adjustment, she led them to submit to Zi, being the foundation for Zi’s conquest of the Northernmost Wilderness.
After consulting with several of the Divine Beasts, Zi decided to start sweeping the Northernmost Wilderness from the Frosty Forest.
Even if it meant securing support from the Beastman tribes through a display of strength, that was his temporary goal.
Zi knew his time was limited.
Conquering the Northernmost Wilderness was essential, but Ye Yinzhu and Qin City also needed his help.
He had a premonition that Faran would eventually take action against Qin City.
The army slowly advanced when suddenly, Zi stopped in his tracks.
A look of surprise flashed through his violet pupils, followed by a shudder that coursed through his body.
He staggered and nearly fell to the ground.
