Chapter 580: The Primal Thunder Wolf and Blacklight's Desperation
In the depths of the Wild Ancient Domain, two figures stood facing each other from a distance.
Mo Yu's face was cold as a pair of majestic bone wings stretched from his back, exuding a powerful aura. Opposite him stood the third Tianzun of the Soul Hall, the Blacklight Saint, his face twisted with murderous intent.
"You arrogant brat! You're going to die today," Blacklight spat as he glared at Mo Yu from afar, his eyes filled with deep killing intent. "Even if your potential is terrifying, right now, you're still not a match for me, a Saint!"
As soon as Blacklight finished speaking, his figure suddenly disappeared in an eerie flash. Mo Yu's expression tightened. He flapped his bone wings and retreated rapidly, his jade-like hand covered in violet-gold lightning as it crackled with energy, striking out at the space where Blacklight had vanished.
As Mo Yu's palm struck, the space twisted, and Blacklight's figure reappeared. "Brat, your strength has grown since we last met, but you're still nothing compared to me. You're just an ant trying to shake a tree," Blacklight sneered.
Having been forced out of hiding, Blacklight covered his arm with a layer of black crystal and slammed it down. In an instant, his fist collided with Mo Yu's lightning-covered hands.
Boom!
A terrifying shockwave filled the sky, crackling with electricity. Blacklight stood firm, while Mo Yu grunted and was forced several steps back. Regaining his balance, Mo Yu quickly steadied himself, and with a single thought, a surge of lightning erupted from his body once more.
This time, brilliant silver lightning poured out from Mo Yu, roaring like a ferocious wolf as it spread across the sky. The massive thunder wolf's shadow cast over the entire area, filling the sky with its presence. This was none other than the Divine Thunder Wolf, born from the Divine Lightning of the Skies.
Seeing the massive lightning wolf, a strange look flashed across Blacklight's face, but he quickly snarled, "This brat controls so many powerful lightning forces!"
"Just as expected from Cousin Mo Yu! He even has this powerful secret lightning!" Xun'er's stunning face showed surprise as she watched the scene unfold. Although the Ancient Clan didn't spy on other clans as aggressively as the Soul Clan, they knew that the powerful lightnings Mo Yu controlled had never been seen in the Thunder Clan. In other words, Mo Yu had acquired all these forces through his own efforts.
"This lightning was born after Cousin Mo Yu absorbed the blood essence of the ancient Thunder Wolf during his journey here. It's incredibly powerful," Xiao Yan commented in admiration. He then turned to Hun Yu and coldly said, "With the second and third Tianzun of the Soul Hall busy fighting Cousin Mo Yu and Qingzhi, we'll take care of these others ourselves."
Without hesitation, Xiao Yan charged at Hun Yu, flames bursting from his body as he launched a fierce assault. Xun'er followed closely, and within moments, they had Hun Yu under control.
"You brat, in just a few short months, you've not only grown stronger but also gained another powerful lightning force. I want nothing more than to kill you!" Blacklight roared, his voice dripping with malice.
With those words, his body suddenly radiated intense black light, and in the blink of an eye, a towering Blacklight Giant appeared once more. This was the same technique Blacklight had used in their battle on the Northwestern Continent, though now it seemed even more powerful as Blacklight unleashed his full strength.
"So, it's this move again. You really have no new tricks, do you?" Mo Yu sneered.
With a wave of his hand, the violet-gold lightning swirling around him began to twist violently. Then, in a dazzling display, a massive set of violet-gold lightning armor formed around Mo Yu. This armor radiated an ancient, primal energy—the Primal Lightning Armor.
Mo Yu wasn't finished. As the Primal Lightning Armor materialized, he gave a silent command, and the Divine Thunder Wolf howled ferociously. In a wild burst of energy, the massive wolf shot toward the lightning armor, fusing with it.
Boom!
The wolf and armor collided, and a burst of blinding light erupted from the fusion of the Divine Thunder Wolf and the Primal Lightning Armor. In that moment, the world seemed to fall silent, as if even the wind had stopped. But this silence lasted only an instant before a deafening howl shattered the stillness. Accompanied by a surge of terrifying violet-gold lightning, the wolf's roar shook the heavens.
As the light faded, a fearsome sight came into view: a colossal thunder wolf, armored in violet-gold lightning. The armor, formed from the Primal Lightning, fit the wolf perfectly, turning it into a nearly indestructible, steel-clad beast.
If seen from a distance, the massive Primal Thunder Wolf, standing nearly a thousand feet tall, would be a terrifying sight to behold. Cloaked in the violet-gold lightning armor, the wolf's primal energy rippled through the air, making it seem as though an ancient beast had returned to life. The sheer power of the wolf caused most of those present to feel a deep fear, as if their very souls had been transported back to the primal ages.
Mo Yu nodded in satisfaction at the sight. The Primal Thunder, ranked fourth on the Mysterious Thunder List, was exceptionally powerful. Meanwhile, the Divine Thunder Wolf, which combined the Divine Lightning of the Skies with the ancient Thunder Wolf's bloodline, had risen to be one of the top six Mysterious Thunders. The combination of these two lightning forces had elevated their power even further.
With a cold smile, Mo Yu pointed toward Blacklight, and the Primal Thunder Wolf's eyes flared with violet-gold light. In a single bound, the massive wolf appeared in front of Blacklight, its enormous paw tearing through the space as it slammed down toward him.
Faced with the terrifying power of the wolf, Blacklight's expression darkened. After surviving his last encounter with Mo Yu, Blacklight had developed a deep hatred for him. But, to his shame, he also felt a creeping fear of this young man. He couldn't allow this fear to fester.
Blacklight quickly retreated, and the Blacklight Giant moved to block the attack, colliding with the wolf's paw.
Shhh!
The impact caused a high-pitched screech as the lightning and dark energy clashed violently, the thunderous explosion echoing across the heavens.
"Wolf Fang!" Mo Yu shouted, clenching his fist. The Primal Thunder Wolf let out a mighty howl and opened its massive jaws. In the sunlight, the wolf's razor-sharp teeth glistened with primal energy as it bit down hard on the Blacklight Giant's shoulder.
Crack!
The sound of bones breaking echoed in the air as the Blacklight Giant's shoulder was torn apart by the wolf's ferocious bite.
Seeing his giant injured, Blacklight frowned. His Blacklight Giant, which could normally withstand even half-saints, was being torn apart. "Hmph!" Blacklight grunted, forming hand seals quickly as a surge of black light shot from his body, mending the giant's damaged shoulder.
But as soon as the repair was complete, the Primal Thunder Wolf struck again. Mo Yu's command sent bolts of violet-gold lightning shooting out from the wolf's armor, forcing the Blacklight Giant to retreat.
"Such terrifying power…" the onlookers murmured, watching in awe as the wolf continued its assault, its body covered in lightning armor, resembling an unstoppable beast. Even from a distance, they could feel the immense pressure radiating from the wolf.
"Roar!"
With a victorious roar, the wolf gathered its strength and unleashed a ball of concentrated lightning, hurling it at the Blacklight Giant. The giant shuddered as the energy coursed through it, the black light surrounding its body rapidly dissipating under the onslaught of lightning.
Blacklight Saint clenched his teeth as his giant struggled to withstand the relentless attacks. Despite his efforts, the combined power of the two Mysterious Thunders was proving overwhelming. The wolf pressed its attack, tearing at the giant with claws and fangs, its relentless assault slowly breaking down even the replenished energy Blacklight poured into it.
"Damned brat! How does he have such power?" Blacklight cursed to himself. He couldn't believe that Mo Yu, a non-saint, had managed to push him—a half-saint—to such a dire situation.
From a distance, Xiao Yan and Xun'er watched in awe. "Cousin Mo Yu is so strong," Xiao Yan whispered.
A Saint-level expert stood at the peak of the continent, commanding respect even among the ancient imperial clans. Yet here was Mo Yu, suppressing Blacklight with overwhelming power. Unlike their last battle, when Mo Yu had used trickery and tactics to win, this time he was fighting Blacklight head-on and gaining the upper hand.
"This kid has shattered the myth that those below the Saint level are nothing but ants!" Hun Yu, who was locked in battle with Xiao Yan and Xun'er, couldn't help but think as he watched Mo Yu dominate the battlefield.
"Old Third, you know the punishment for failing this mission. Don't mess this up!" Elder Guyou warned with a cold glare, after pushing back Qingzhi with a single strike.
The Soul Hall was notorious for punishing failure harshly, and this was Blacklight's second chance. If he failed again, even as a Saint, he would face severe punishment.
Hearing this, Blacklight's face twisted with rage as he glared at Mo Yu, his expression flickering with madness.
"Brat, you've left me no choice!" he snarled.
