Chapter 138 That Mischievous Kid is Actually at the Late Stage of Martial Saint?
Moo!
The mythical five-color bull let out a heaven-shaking roar, its huge bull eyes brimming with endless brutality.
Crackle!
The tips of the two bull horns flickered with five-colored arcs of lightning, which intertwined and fused into a five-colored electric ball in the center between the horns.
As the arcs surged continuously, the five-colored electric ball burst forth with tremendous suction power. The five-colored lightning atop Five Thunder Mountain moved instantly, surging toward the ball, and the electric ball grew visibly larger at a speed perceptible to the naked eye.
Although it had not yet been unleashed, the prestige emanating from it had already subjected the Heavenly Prides to immense pressure.
Even the thunder beasts that originally wanted to besiege them seemed to feel a fatal threat, scattering and daring not to draw near.
It was evident, therefore, that the power of this move of the five-color bull far exceeded ordinary people's imagination.
Chu Xin blinked her round, wide eyes and muttered softly, "This move looks a bit scary."
Hum!
The Divine Rune Power flowed within her body, surging golden Divine Rune Power, and in front of her congealed into a Divine Rune Giant Sword.
The Giant Sword was covered with Divine Runes, looking exceptionally sacred.
"What is that? Runes?"
"They're like runes, but not runes, or at least not ordinary runes."
The gathered Heavenly Prides gazed at the Divine Rune Giant Sword, all with faces full of shock.
As Heavenly Prides from Jiuzhou, they were naturally not unfamiliar with runes.
Talismans, Array Stones, Magic Artifacts, and even some special Cultivation Methods all had runes.
But the runes on this Giant Sword were definitely not the runes they recognized.
"These runes, unseen and unheard of, seem to be much more powerful than ordinary runes."
Lei Wanjun also furrowed his brows tightly, shocked beyond measure.
Thunder Sect was one of the ten great Holy Lands of Jiuzhou, with an undeniably deep foundation.
As the number one Heavenly Pride of Thunder Sect, and indeed the whole of Thunder State, almost everything in Thunder Sect was open to him.
It could be said that he was familiar with virtually everything Thunder Sect had on record.
Yet he had never seen these mysterious runes, nor even heard of them.
"Could this kid come from some hidden ancient power?" Lei Wanjun speculated in his heart.
But the ten great Holy Lands, being the inheritance from the Ancient times in Jiuzhou, were considered the oldest powers. Even some secrets from Ancient times could be found among them.
He truly could not think of any power that could be older than the ten great Holy Lands.
Crackle!
At this moment, a terrifying Sword Intent rippled from the Divine Rune Giant Sword, clashing with the pressure generated by the five-colored electric ball, splitting the void and causing it to crackle.
Moo!
The five-color bull let out a furious roar as the five-colored electric ball between its horns shot forth through the air.
As it rocketed forward, its two horns continued to supply the five-colored lightning unceasingly.
From afar, it looked like two five-colored chains of lightning were connected to the electric ball, which had grown to be no smaller than the bull's head.
"Slash!"
At the same time, Chu Xin pinched her sword technique, and with a milky voice, she loudly shouted, then the Divine Rune Giant Sword swung down fiercely.
Boom!
The Divine Rune Giant Sword collided with the five-colored electric ball, unleashing a thunderous boom. A mix of Sword Qi and the aftereffects of five-colored lightning spread out, sweeping the surroundings.
"Quick, retreat!"
The Heavenly Prides exclaimed in alarm, rapidly retreating using their movement techniques.
"Ah! No!"

Those who reacted a little slower, or whose strength and speed were lacking, were instantly pulverized by the aftermath of the boundless Sword Qi mixed with the Five-colored Lightning.
"This is too strong."
The Heavenly Prides who successfully dodged it looked at this scene, all showing shock and awe.
Just the aftermath of the battle had such terrifying power; the attack launched by the Seventh Rank Late Stage Thunder Beast was indeed horrendous.
And that bratty kid's attack could withstand the assault of the Five-colored Kui Bull, indicating that her strength must not be much inferior to that of the Five-colored Kui Bull.
"Is that bratty kid really that strong?"
"A little brat who doesn't even look five years old, yet has strength comparable to a Late Stage Martial Saint? This is simply inconceivable."
"Indeed, compared to that bratty kid, we are so ashamed we wish the ground would swallow us up."
"Next to her, what kind of Heavenly Prides are we?"
The Heavenly Prides were deeply shocked and discussed fervently, utterly astonished.
"This bratty kid has strength comparable to a Late Stage Martial Saint, even stronger than Lei Wanjun; why isn't she ranked within the top ten Heavenly Prides of Jiuzhou?"
"Right, with her strength, she should at least be in the top four; why is she unknown in Jiuzhou?"
The Heavenly Prides all looked towards Lei Wanjun and whispered among themselves.
Lei Wanjun's face darkened upon hearing the discussions of the Heavenly Prides, his gaze grim as he watched the bratty kid on Five Thunder Mountain, who was in a stalemate with the Divine Rune Giant Sword and Five-colored Electric Ball.
"Where did this bratty kid come from?"
He muttered to himself, his eyes filled with resentment.
In his original plan, he expected to consume three Five Thunder Fruits, enabling his cultivation to break through to the Late Stage Martial Saint, and with the power to control three types of lightning from the Five Thunder Fruits, his strength would be much stronger than a typical Late Stage Martial Saint. He then might even have a chance at contending for the position of the third or even second Heavenly Pride of Jiuzhou.
Unexpectedly, two bratty kids had come out of nowhere and snatched all five Five Thunder Fruits.
However, before this, he had not given up the hope of snatching the Five Thunder Fruits from the two bratty kids, thus he had set up the Ancient Magic Array.
But once again, the bratty kid's strength had exceeded his expectations, and he was no longer certain that the Ancient Magic Array could keep her trapped.
No matter what, however, he had to try.
The Five Thunder Fruits were key to his breakthrough, and he would never give up until the very end.
He looked at the Five-colored Kui Bull and muttered, "The Five-colored Kui Bull also has strength on par with a Late Stage Martial Saint, and it even has the home-field advantage; it should have a great chance of winning. Even if it can't beat the bratty kid, it should be able to significantly deplete her energy and strength."
With that thought, he felt somewhat more confident in his heart.
"That bratty kid seems to have gotten stronger again."
Long Shaoyu also murmured to himself.
"Pretty big bull, your electric ball is quite impressive."
Chu Xin looked at the electric ball locked in a stalemate with the Divine Rune Giant Sword, a hint of surprise flashing in her round eyes.
Mooh!
The Five-colored Kui Bull felt insulted and let out a bellow before increasing the output of the Five-colored Lightning.
Bolstered by the renewed energy, the power of the Five-colored Electric Ball surged, forcibly pushing the Divine Rune Giant Sword forward.
"You big bad bull, how dishonorable, powering up while I'm talking, hmph."
Chu Xin's childish voice chided, and then her sword technique changed abruptly, causing the already gigantic Divine Rune Giant Sword to tremble at an odd rate.
And as it trembled faster and faster, the Runes on the Giant Sword also flowed madly.
Every time the Runes circulated over the Giant Sword, the Sword Intent emitted from it grew stronger, and all of this Sword Intent surged into the Five-colored Electric Ball alongside the vibrations of the Divine Rune Giant Sword.
"Break for me!"
Chu Xin's youthful voice echoed once more, followed by a thunderous boom as the immense Five-colored Electric Ball shattered explosively, dispersing into a sky-full of Five-colored Lightning.
The Divine Rune Giant Sword, however, continued its path toward the Five-colored Kui Bull.
Crack!
One of the Five-colored horns was cleanly severed.
