Chapter 1952 - Breaking Free of the Seal!
Translator: Legge
Su Zimo watched everything unfold helplessly.
There was no way he could interfere in a battle of this level.
"Su Zimo, pull out the Execution Saber!"
Right then, the Thunder Emperor's voice sounded. Although it was calm, there was an inexplicable power behind it!
Su Zimo was severely injured when he tried to withdraw the saber earlier on.
However, when he heard the Thunder Emperor's words, he did not hesitate. Taking a deep breath of air, he strode forward and grabbed the Execution Saber.
In midair, the two Weapon Spirits of the Execution Saber noticed this as well and suddenly became extremely nervous. They abandoned the Vermilion Bird Sacred Soul that was about to shatter and turned their blades towards Su Zimo.
Sensing the killing intent behind him, Su Zimo was delighted instead of alarmed.
He realized that there was a high chance that the Execution Saber was the key!
"Stop them!"
Su Zimo shouted.
The Vermilion Bird Sacred Soul roared and the flames in its body burst forth, charging towards the two saber phantoms!
It could not hold on for much longer and its choice this time round was merely a desperate attack to buy time.
The moment the three Weapon Spirits collided, Su Zimo grabbed the Execution Saber once more!
The power of punishment and killing reappeared in his mind and surged into his body.
However, because the Weapon Spirits were not around, the power was much weaker.
"Ah!"
Enduring the pain, Su Zimo's eyes widened as he roared. His blood qi surged as he gripped the handle of the Execution Saber and yanked it outside!
The speed of the Execution Saber's withdrawal was extremely slow.
In fact, Su Zimo could even hear the sound of the saber slicing through the Thunder Emperor's bones.
Right from the beginning, the Thunder Emperor's face did not change, as though he could not feel any pain.
However, the lightning in his eyes intensified!
Boom!
The outcome of the fight between the Weapon Spirits was already decided.
The Vermilion Bird Sacred Soul dissipated and turned into a red streak of light, entering the wall of the Hell Suppression Tripod once more to fall into a deep sleep.
As for the two Weapon Spirits of the Execution Saber, although they suffered quite a blow and dimmed slightly, they were still intact and charged towards Su Zimo!
Poof!
Finally, Su Zimo pulled out the Execution Saber.
However, that short process almost exhausted all his strength.
The Green Lotus True Body was severely injured as well!
Unable to hold on, Su Zimo slumped to the ground weakly.
The killing intent behind him was cold and he did not even have the strength to turn back. He could only pant heavily and remain motionless with a dispirited expression.
"Hmph!"
Just as the two Weapon Spirits were about to slice Su Zimo into two, a cold harrumph sounded and the void trembled!
The two Weapon Spirits paused for a moment as well.
The Thunder Emperor spoke!
Instinctively, Su Zimo looked up.
The shocking wound on the Thunder Emperor's chest was healing slowly!
The aura of the Thunder Emperor became stronger as well and the lightning in his eyes intensified with endless might!
The two Weapon Spirits seemed wary and hesitant.
However, after a brief pause, the two Weapon Spirits were enraged and slashed towards Su Zimo still!
Suddenly!
Two streaks of lightning burst forth from the Thunder Emperor's eyes.
At that moment, the entire world seemed to be filled with lightning.
Boom!
A loud bang sounded when the two lightning bolts struck the two Weapon Spirits.
Electric arcs flashed and crackled on the two Weapon Spirits.
The two Weapon Spirits trembled and lamented, as though they were in immense pain.
Su Zimo was dumbstruck.
The two Weapon Spirits had just suppressed the Vermilion Bird Sacred Soul and were intact. Now, they were suppressed by a single gaze from the Thunder Emperor!
"Could it be…"
Su Zimo thought of a possibility and his eyes lit up.
Right then, as though they realized something, the two Weapon Spirits no longer chased after Su Zimo. Instead, they turned around and returned to the Execution Saber instantly.
Ding!
The blade quivered slightly and transformed into a streak of light that tore through the firmaments, speeding into the distance!
That was a spirit treasure.
It was already sentient and could judge the situation to avoid danger.
The Thunder Emperor did not attack as he looked at the departing Execution Saber.
His strength had yet to recover completely and he could not retain the Grotto-heaven Spirit Treasure.
The Thunder Emperor's spirit consciousness moved and the initially shattered Dao Fruit in front of him turned into streaks of lightning that entered Su Zimo's body like raindrops.
"Ah!"
Su Zimo cried out in pain and his body curled uncontrollably, trembling.
Electric arcs flashed on his body and seeped into his flesh, bones and organs through his pores!
Su Zimo had cultivated the Void Thunder Manual to begin with and did not reject the power of the Dao Fruit.
When he withdrew the saber earlier on, there was still a lot of punishment and killing power left in his body.
But now, all of that power was purged away by the power of thunder that surged in!
A moment later, when the pain gradually dissipated, Su Zimo was shocked to discover that his injuries had mostly healed!
Every single move he made seemed even more powerful than before!
"Senior…"
With a swoosh, Su Zimo stood up from the ground. His face was rosy and he could move freely.
"I've sealed these Dao Fruit fragments into your body temporarily with Dharmic powers,"
The Thunder Emperor said, "Given your current cultivation, it's difficult for you to absorb and refine them completely. They might be able to help you in the future."
"Thank you, senior,"
Su Zimo bowed hurriedly in thanks.
That was the Dao Fruit of a Peerless Perfected Immortal!
Even though it was already shattered and battered, the remaining fragments possessed unimaginable might!
Crack!
Right then, a strange sound came from the Thunder Emperor!
Su Zimo focused his gaze.
One of the chains on the Thunder Emperor's body had already snapped!
The lightning in the Thunder Emperor's eyes intensified and his skinny body shuddered once more.
Crack!
With another crisp sound, a second chain broke!
The Ten Absolute Chains were broken by the Thunder Emperor's own power!
The power of the Ten Absolute Chains came from the Ten Absolute Hell.
The Ten Absolute Hell was so terrifying that it could even kill Perfected Immortal experts. Now that the Thunder Emperor could break the chains himself, what did that mean?
The two chains snapped and the Thunder Emperor's hands broke free.
His skinny hands grabbed another two chains and squeezed!
Crack!
The two chains snapped at the same time!
As though he could read the confusion in Su Zimo's eyes, the Thunder Emperor smiled. "The Ten Absolute Hell and Ten Absolute Chains alone won't be able to trap me."
"All these years, the only thing that trapped me here was that Execution Saber."
"When you pulled out that saber for me, it was equivalent to you removing the greatest seal on my body!"
Boom!
The moment he said that, the Thunder Emperor exerted strength and a loud bang sounded!
The remaining six chains snapped at the same time!
The Ten Absolute Formation shook and the formation eyes shattered, creating massive storms in the immortal formation that were extremely chaotic!
The aura of the Thunder Emperor rose continuously, as though a terrifying god was awakening and returning!
