《Eternal Sacred King》Chapter 176: Terrifying Lunatic
Advertisement
Boom!
Pang Yue pulled out the black spear that was embedded in the ground, causing the earth to crack and mud splattered everywhere.
Dragging his huge spear, Pang Yue strode in a domineering manner to Su Zimo and said, “I don’t know which immortal sect you’re from, but I guess your master must have spent a lot of effort to nurture you. But… what a pity.”
“Even though your bloodline has reached the legendary tsunami blood, your body tempering isn’t at a greater mastery yet. You are too weak to be my match!”
Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself about how powerful this person was.
Before they even exchanged blows, Pang Yue had already seen through him.
Pang Yue was not wrong. Even though Su Zimo’s bloodline was terrifying and he was strong, Marrow Cleansing was only the fourth section of The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness.
In terms of body tempering, Su Zimo had yet to cultivate the Organs Refinement and Orifice Clearing sections.
Sizzle!
The spear tip slashed across the ground, producing strange sounds.
Amidst the sound, Pang Yue’s heavy footsteps could be heard.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
He was neither slow nor fast, but it was forceful. Every single step he took seemed as if he was stepping on the beat of Su Zimo’s heart, giving the latter a feeling of dread.
As Pang Yue approached, his aura grew stronger and stronger. On the contrary, Su Zimo’s aura was being crushed completely!
In the eyes of the onlookers, Pang Yue seemed to have transformed into an ancient demon a hundred feet tall, overlooking Su Zimo who was tiny as an ant right now.
Of course, that was just an illusion of the crowd that was caused by the auras of both parties and the circumstances alongside various reasons.
Shangguan Yu was secretly shocked by Pang Yue’s terror. After some thought, he gathered that even without the presence of the ancient spirit lock formation, he might not be a match for that lunatic either.
However, Shangguan Yu heaved a sigh of relief.

No matter what, that green robed cultivator was finally going to die.
With Pang Yue around, the rest of them were in no danger of losing their lives. But, if the green robed cultivator was the one who survived, the only option left for them was to escape.
A cruel glint flashed in the Zenith Sect heir’s eyes as he looked on coldly.
When the Illusion Fiend Cult heir saw what was happening, he was delighted and yelled, “Lunatic Pang, killing this person outright will be too easy on him! You’d better rip him into pieces! That’d be satisfying!”
Ji Yaoyan furrowed her brows as worry flashed across her eyes.
She was the clearest about Pang Yue’s methods and abilities. Through the history of fiend sect heirs, his strength was ranked right at the top. Otherwise, he would not be called a lunatic!
Seeing Pang Yue walk over, Su Zimo suddenly realized something.
Even though what Pang Yue said was true, the fact that he chose to say it at this moment was a form of mental warfare.
If Su Zimo felt that he was inferior to Pang Yue, his aura would definitely weaken and he would lose the initiative.
After realizing this, Su Zimo had been searching for a way to break out of that situation.
“Haha!”
Pang Yue did not intend to give Su Zimo any chance to begin with. When he approached Su Zimo, he raised his pitch black spear and smashed it down like a steel whip, causing the wind to howl in a breathtaking manner!
Su Zimo did not even think about it and sidestepped to dodge immediately.
The power of that spear was too powerful!
If he wanted to defend it head on, he would only end up severely injured and might even die on the spot!
“Can you avoid it?”
Pang Yue’s spear missed and smashed on the ground with a loud bang, causing the earth to crack.
Amidst the billowing smoke, a thick black spear stabbed out. It was extremely stable, as if it could even pierce through the heavens!
Su Zimo’s eyes lit up. He took a half sidestep and forcefully twisted his stance with the Plow Heaven Stride, dodging the sharp tip of the spear while using his Cold Moon Saber to strike at the weakest part of the spear!

Su Zimo could not help but praise himself internally for that slash.
Regardless of angle, timing, strength or the combination with Plow Heaven Stride, the move was perfect.
In fact, Su Zimo thought of what to do with this move later on.
After colliding with the spear, the Cold Moon Saber slanted sideways and sliced down the body of the spear, forcing Pang Yue to let go!
That way, Su Zimo would seize the initiative and gain the advantage with a weapon!
“Clang!”
The sound of metal clashing echoed out.
It was as Su Zimo had imagined and the Cold Moon Saber collided heavily against the body of the spear. However, his expression changed the next moment as he realized something was amiss.
Su Zimo felt an extremely domineering shock wave on the body of the spear!
The moment the Cold Moon Saber made contact with it, the shock was transmitted to him through the saber!
It was a trap!
It was the same way Su Zimo had dealt with the thousand-faced assassin earlier on – this was a deliberate opening set up by Pang Yue!
“Buzz!”
The spear quivered and the Cold Moon Saber was sent flying. With his palm torn and fresh blood dripping, Su Zimo’s trump card he had designed earlier was now useless.
“Haha!”
Pang Yue burst out into laughter. Exerting strength into his arms, he swept the spear horizontally right at Su Zimo’s head.
After the Cold Moon Saber left his hands, Su Zimo was extremely swift and squatted.
The pitch black spear swept into air. However, it suddenly changed its momentum and stopped right above Su Zimo’s head before slamming down!
Pushing his feet, Su Zimo rolled to the side and barely avoided the fatal blow. He was covered with quite a bit of mud and looked rather pathetic.
The both of them had only exchanged a couple of moves. However, Su Zimo had escaped death several times. If he was any bit slower, he would have died on the spot!
The difference in strength between the both sides was obvious.
In the eyes of everyone, Su Zimo had no chance against Pang Yue with his black spear now that even his weapon was gone.
“I’ve told you, you’re very strong, but you’re no match for me. Please resign to your fate,” Pang Yue’s voice sounded as though he was stating an unquestionable fact.
Raising his brow, an idea flashed into Su Zimo’s mind – he had finally realized the flaw in Pang Yue’s earlier statement!
“My strength is indeed inferior to yours. However, strength is not the only factor in melee combat,” Su Zimo composed himself and replied indifferently.
In that instant, a strange change happened between their auras.
Pang Yue’s aura was still extremely strong. However, Su Zimo’s aura suddenly became unpredictable.
If one were to compare Pang Yue to a towering, mighty mountain, Su Zimo would be akin to a bottomless ocean!
It was hard to tell who was stronger between the two!
No one could tell if the mountain would overturn the ocean or if the ocean would sink the mountain.
“I’m really curious. Now that even your weapon is gone, what are you going to fight me with? Hmms,” Sensing the abnormality in Su Zimo, Pang Yue continued with his mental warfare.
“Not only are weapons useless in the hands of some people, they may even be a burden.”
Su Zimo let out a long sigh and actually took the initiative to walk towards Pang Yue calmly.
Splash! Splash!
Bang! Boom! Boom!
“Huff… hmm…”
A strange noise rang in Su Zimo’s body – that was the Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound.
Su Zimo’s aura was climbing steadily!
If anyone were to close their eyes, they would definitely be met with a shocking scene in their minds.
It was an ancient demon that stood tall and mighty. With bloodshot eyes, it strode through the torrential ocean and its body shimmered with lightning – it was an unyielding sight!

Raak
James was in his 30's when his death came suddenly, not that he minded much, as life was seeming to drag on. His story, however, did not end with his death. As a point of fact, it had only just begun. This will be my first work, so please by all means comment with any errors I may have made. Suggestions for the story (which may or may not be used). This is a litrpg and a bit of a power fantasy, so be warned the protagonist will be pretty OP eventually.

Essentia Animus
Second Book of the Soul - Celesi Veil Trilogy When the living essence of three girls are put at risk, giving room for a second essence within themselves, even their hyper developed fantasy world might not be enough to contain their new found ambitions. Another story of another world, these three girls must adapt to their new essence, all while each is left to question if they are truly still even alive. While this story is a sequel of the previous story in the trillogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, taking place in a distant corner of a Celese returning readers will be otherwise incapable of recognizing. However, the events of the story are a spoiler for the previous book, in case that matters to anyone. This story takes place over two centuries after the events of Vitae Memorandum, when Celese had developed into an advanced world, improved to a point that it is much like modern-day Earth while still using the gift instead of technology. The Aethyx languages are still present in this book, and even English still exists in the world after the events of the previous book, but are much less of a focus after the same closing events of the previous book. What is instead important is how the ending events of the previous book had resulted in the start of the Instrumentation Era, and exactly how the gift translates in a modern-day sense. While this book is still effectively a fantasy world of its own kind of magic, it isn’t the classical medieval scene that would be typical for such a story. The laws of science still do not exist in Celese, but that didn’t stop it from developing into something that looks similar enough. Earth itself still remains present on the other side of the veil, and its previous exposure continues to shape and advance Celese into the world it has become. This story contains scenes exibiting mania and similar dark themes, as it goes to great length to explore concepts of life and death. While the degree of such themes should not be considered to be as serious compared to matters such as actual horror, the psychological depth is still siginifcant enough to be potentially concerning for people sensitive to matters of this nature, such as any individuals with concerns questioning matters of suicide, mental harm, or a variety of emotional injuries. While none of these subjects actually occur in the story, readers who are currently troubled by such matters may find themselves considering old wounds if they are especially capable of empathy while reading, which could lead to furthered emotional or mental stress. Readers with a high capacity for empathy may find themselves troubled by concerns regarding any potential lack of mental/emotional control as well as considerations regarding the meaning of death. Readers who appreciate subtle dark themes in a story may instead find this to be an interesting twist of the same idea.

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.

Life in Zora's Domain
An AU about Mipha's and Link's life together post Calamity. I tried to have some fun with this story, taking it in different directions, developing Mipha's and Link's family, making up some adventures, and creating some connections to other Zelda stories. But the main theme is Mipha's and Link's love for each other and building a happy life together. I'm sure I don't always succeed, but I try to keep the story light hearted and generally opt for happy outcomes.The first 2 chapters now incorporate the prequel stories 'His Future is in the Past' and 'Beginning Life in Zora's Domain', so this AU is self-contained in one story. If you've already read the prequels just jump to Chapter 1 - Studying. Cover art where available is by Nurple(twitter dot com/nurpleynurple) and used by permission. Spoiler Warning: This story has spoilers! On the other hand, if you haven't played the game this story won't make sense. This writing is a work of fan fiction using characters and events from the world of The Legend of Zelda TM: Breath of the Wild, which is owned and copyrighted by Nintendo. I do not claim any ownership of the world or its characters. It is a work of my imagination and is for entertainment only. It is not part of the official Nintendo storyline.
