《Eternal Sacred King》Chapter 220: Wrath of Thunder
Advertisement
Although the clash between both parties seemed short, it was filled with spirit arts, a clash of secret skills and psychological warfare.
Given another battlefield or environment, Su Zimo may not have been able to win.
Furthermore, he was left with almost no spirit energy after releasing Fiend Suppression Seal.
Right then, Su Zimo’s scalp tingled as he felt a sense of danger!
He realized that he had been targeted.
Furthermore, that person was extremely strong and wasn’t someone he could resist!
It was a Golden Core expert!
It could be the Golden Core that was fighting Wen Xuan and Elder Yu in midair or the spirit demon Golden Core that was standing beside the blood robed youth.
Su Zimo took a deep breath of air and tried hard to compose himself. Breaking through the encirclement, he sped until he was outside Qin Yu and the others.
“Caw, caw!”
Many blood-eyed crows caught the scent of fresh blood and let out unpleasant cries as they swarmed towards Su Zimo in the hundreds.
Those blood-eyed crows were all spirit demons with powerful bodies – they posed a huge threat for Qin Yu and the other Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
Qin Yu and the others did not dare let the blood-eyed crows come close at all!
However, Su Zimo’s body was much stronger than those ordinary blood-eyed crows!
Even if more blood-eyed crows were to surround him, they may not be able to injure him.
It was no exaggeration to claim that although Su Zimo was human, even the physique of ancient remnant demon beasts may not be able to match his!
Even against pure-blooded ferocious beasts, Su Zimo’s body and bloodline were superior.
Su Zimo’s expression did not change when he saw the blood-eyed crows swarming towards him. A roaring sound of tigers and leopards alongside thunder rumbling echoed forth from his body.
Splash!
Bang! Boom! Boom!
The blood-eyed crows were not only not scared of such a formidable bloodline, the sanguine light in their eyes grew even brighter as they turned more ferocious!

They saw Su Zimo was nothing more than a delicious piece of tonic!
After all, blood-eyed crows were only ordinary demon beasts. How could they have the chance to devour the flesh of an ancient remnant beast or pure-blooded ferocious beast on a day to day basis?
Su Zimo on the other hand was a living, breathing pure-blooded ferocious beast right in front of them!
As long as they could eat a piece of Su Zimo’s flesh and drink a mouthful of his blood, their strength would increase significantly!
“Bro!”
When he saw that, little fatty exclaimed.
However, his voice was drowned by the cries of the endless blood-eyed crows and couldn’t be heard.
Leng Rou’s heart skipped a beat and her gaze dimmed.
They knew clearly well how terrifying the blood-eyed crows were. None of the cultivators that were left behind could escape from being devoured alive by those beasts.
So what if Su Zimo was strong in melee combat?
He was a human after all. How could he withstand so many blood-eyed crows?
Little fatty and Leng Rou could only watch on helplessly as the blood-eyed crows swarmed at Su Zimo, drowning him in their midst.
“Forget it.”
Leng Rou sighed inwardly and shook her head.
They could not hold on much longer either.
Their resistance was merely a momentary respite. Before long, they would end up in the same tragic state.
Disheartened, Leng Rou switched her flying sword’s direction and was prepare to commit suicide.
She did not want to experience being torn apart by the blood-eyed crows till she was unrecognizable. Rather than that, she would rather do it herself!
Right then, a strange sound burst forth from the blood-eyed crows that were surrounding Su Zimo.
Crackle!
Endless flashes of lightning burst forth from Su Zimo’s body in a blinding manner.
Snap!
Thunder boomed.
A thick thunderbolt shot down from the skies, connecting to Su Zimo’s body without dissipating for a long time as though he was a link to the heavens.
In the middle of everything, dazzling thunderbolts extended in all directions from Su Zimo like pythons. They surged wildly, as if forming an ocean of lightning with raging waves, enveloping the blood-eyed crows in its midst!

The power of thunder was the most terrifying among all various powers.
Furthermore, thunder was strong and masculine, purging evil with ease – it was the nemesis of something vile like these blood-eyed crows.
Under the sweeping of the lightning ocean, the blood-eyed crows cried out tragically as they fell from the skies, covered in thick smoke.
It was an extremely shocking sight!
Be it the Blood Crow Palace cultivators or Ethereal Peak disciples, all of them watched on dumbfounded as disbelief filled their eyes.
Through the depths of the firmaments, thunder descended onto Su Zimo’s body.
Standing in the middle of the lightning ocean, he stood unmoved. He was like a god undergoing a catharsis of lightning, looking down at the vast sky and purging all evil in the world!
This was the wrath of thunder!
“Well, well, well!”
The blood robed youth was the first to react. His eyes lit up as he laughed instead of getting angry, nodding repeatedly without concealing the admiration in his eyes.
As for Feng Haoyu, his eyes revealed a hint of fear and even envy!
Even though he had learned the three major secret skills of the sect, he did not know of any thunder art as such.
The Golden Core spirit demon, Yu Fei, had an indifferent expression as he looked on coldly.
No matter what tricks Su Zimo had up his sleeves, it did not affect the current situation at all.
Golden Cores and Foundation Establishment Cultivators were a world of a difference that could not be closed!
As long as he made a move, Su Zimo would not be able to fight back.
“Alright!”
A series of cheers broke out from the crowd of Ethereal Peak.
After Su Zimo’s attack, the number of blood-eyed crows decreased rapidly and that eased the pressure on Qin Yu and the others significantly.
“Su Zimo, I’ll offer you a chance to live. Be my blood slave.”
Right then, the blood robed youth walked towards Su Zimo. His pace was unhurried and his tone was calm. However, it carried a hint of unquestionable power.
Turning around, Su Zimo’s gaze lingered momentarily on the blood robed youth.
To the people of Ethereal Peak, the situation in front of them was a deadly trap.
But right at that moment, Su Zimo vaguely sensed that there was a sliver of life in this deadly trap.
The blood robed youth had an extremely high status and the Golden Core spirit demon did not leave his side at all, guarding like a shadow.
If Su Zimo could lure the blood robed youth away, that Golden Core spirit demon would leave as well.
That way, a massive threat would be removed for everyone of Ethereal Peak!
Even though there were still quite a number of blood-eyed crows and Foundation Establishment Cultivators left in the battlefield, the Ethereal Peak disciples might have a chance of escaping since they were all at Foundation Establishment realm!
This was the only chance for everyone of Ethereal Peak!
Even though it was a sliver of hope, it was worth a try.
“Someone like you?”
Su Zimo scoffed coldly at the blood robed youth before turning around suddenly, speeding towards the outside of Dongling Valley.
The formidable bloodline aura emitted by Su Zimo attracted a large number of blood-eyed crows to chase after him as well.
He was extremely fast. Making use of Divine Steed Fleeting, even perfected Foundation Establishment Cultivators would not be able to match his full speed!
“Oh? You want to escape?”
The blood robed youth focused his gaze and withdrew a white bone staff from his storage bag. With a single leap, he stood on it and sped forth, his body bursting with spirit energy.
The light of spirit meridians flashed endlessly from the blood robed youth’s body.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four spirit meridians!
The blood robed youth was a four meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivator!

8 114Ghosts Within
Remy was the best thief this side of old Boston. Well, he used to be the best. Now, Remy's nothing but a washed up con-man turned private investigator who owes a lot of money to the wrong people. Taking one last job to scrap together enough money to get out of town, he finds himself ensnared in schemes well over his paygrade. To save his own skin, he'll need use skills long gone to rust, old acquaintances who'd just as soon see him dead as succeed, and more than a bit of luck. Ghosts Within takes place in a semi post-apocalyptic world where the lines between technology and magic are blurred and scattered cities are the last refuge of civilization. Essentially, it's Blade Runner + Ocean's 11 with the magic system from Bioshock.
8 128Gaston (Disney)
Gosh, its awesome to see him (Gaston). He’s never down in the dumps! Every guy here'd love to be him (Gaston) even when taking his lumps. There's no man in town as admired as him, he's everyone's favorite guy! Everyone's awed and inspired by him and it's not very hard to see why: No one's slick as Gaston. No one's quick as Gaston. No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston For there's no man in town half as manly! (perfect, a pure paragon) Ask any Tom, Dick or Stanley, and they'll tell you whose team they prefer to be on! Who plays darts like Gaston? Who breaks hearts like Gaston? Who’s much more than the sum of his parts like Gaston? As a specimen, yes, he’s intimidating; my, what a guy, that Gaston! He doesn’t need encouragement, you boneheaded fools. The only ones who need encouragement is you! (Was that too much? I say no.) No one fights like Gaston, douses lights like Gaston. In a wrestling match nobody bites like Gaston! When he hunts, he sneaks up with his quiver – beasts of the field say a prayer! First he carefully aims for the liver… then he shoots from behind! Is that fair? He doesn’t care. No one hits like Gaston, matches wits like Gaston. In a spitting match nobody spits like Gaston. (He’s especially good at expectorating!) Ten points for Gaston! When he was a lad he ate four dozen eggs every morning to help him get large. And now that he’s grown he eats five dozen eggs, so he’s roughly the size of a barge! Who has brains? Entertains? Who can make up these endless refrains like Gaston? (He uses antlers in all of his decorating!) Say it again: Who’s a man amongst men? Who’s a super success? Don’t you know? Can’t you guess? Ask his fans and his end(less) hangers-on! There’s just one guy in town who’s got all of it down! And his name’s G-A-S-T-O-N GASTON!
8 112Thorns of Jade [A Progression Fantasy LitRPG Adventure]
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Solo Leveling meets Chainsaw Man in this fun new LitRPG Series To become the king of Kissen, Noah Hearts trains to become the strongest swordsman in the world. The only problem — he can’t use Aura at all! Everything changes when he’s left for dead in a forest on the Kissen Fields… In a world where horrific creatures known as “demons” terrorize mankind, those who wield the mysterious force known as “aura” are the only ones who can fight them. These fighters call themselves the “Wolves of Haven”, and strive to create a world where demons no longer roam their lands! Though Noah Hearts is an exceptional swordfighter for a young man, his total inability to use aura means he could never hope to defeat the demons! Despite this major setback, he still hopes to become the king of Kissen and create a better world for those in his country! As he walks home from his daily training, his world is shifted upside down when he sees a few familiar faces in his home… This is the first draft of what I want to be a 9 volume series. I'll be editing, rewriting, and releasing the volumes on Amazon once they're finished. I'll admit, I'm finishing chapters in sprints because I want to participate in the writathon (Apr. 2022) so I apologize if there are some issues with the prose. Point them out to me and I'll fix them! Anyway, I have no backlog, but I plan on uploading chapters as I finish them. I don't want to spend weeks re-editing and never publishing like I used to, so I'm just gonna post when it's done. Like I said, this story is my take on a mix between solo leveling and chainsaw man. Specifically, the MC is the only one that can consciously level up (sort of), and the plot is fast paced and emotional just like chainsaw man. There are plenty of other inspirations, like HxH, Jojo, JJK, Cradle, and even FF6, but the first two are the biggest. Basically, if you don't like Shounen stuff, this probably isn't the story for you. Regardless, I hope you all like the story!
8 194Serendipity
What would you do for a wish? In the center of the world of Earthena lays the tower of Serendipity stretching high into the heavens where the goddess lays in deep slumber. It is said that whoever would climb the top and awaken the goddess would get any wish they desire granted. With a newfound power, young adventure Silica Hale and her Fairy partner Jil must venture to the tower and awaken the sleeping goddess. --------------------- Authors Notes: Inspired by more or less the game Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Serendipity is a large epic drawing a lot on the classic JRPG formula. An epic that will see the heroes travel the entire world of Earthena to reach their goal, with the intention of building upon a rich and dynamic world of mystery and war. NOTE: This is gonna be my first Draft of this story. Any feedback will be appreciated. Grammer hopefully won't be too much of an issue compared to Goddess Chosen given that this one is more recent, but... Just give you guys a heads up. This story is ongoing. Updates are slow as I publish when a chapter is ready. Expect my chapters to be on the long side, that's just my style. Only on Royal Road.com
