chapter 391 part 2
*BOOM!*
Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King) had no time to activate his special support-type skills and was blasted away again, moving closer to Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King).
'Entangling Strings: Fix.'
"Wretch!"
Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King) roared from a distance, pressing the strings of his pipa.
A large number of silk threads suddenly appeared on Tang Zheng's body, wrapping around his limbs. The threads extended down toward the white floor, attempting to hold him in place.
This was clearly a binding-type skill!
Tang Zheng's body merely trembled slightly, and he easily broke free from the binding threads, crushing another 'Tenth-Tier: Heating' scroll in his hand.
He had a passive, 'Movement Impairment Nullification,' so binding-type skills were useless against him.
*BOOM!*
Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King) was blasted away again. The continuous knockback effect made it impossible for him to use any skills.
A 'Tenth-Tier: Heating' scroll was crushed!
...
Another 'Tenth-Tier: Heating' scroll was crushed!
In a short span of time, seven scrolls were consumed. The continuous explosions and roars knocked Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King) directly to the side of Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King).
"Ninjutsu: Shadow Clone Technique!" Tang Zheng activated the skill.
A Shadow Clone emerged and immediately targeted Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King), casting, "Ninjutsu: Immovable Body-Fixing Technique."
An invisible wave washed over him!
Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King) stood frozen in place.
"Gale Acceleration!"
"Gale Stride!"
Tang Zheng instantly closed the distance, arriving right in front of Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King). The Pain of Ice Fang in his hand traced a blue arc through the air.
"Four Light Consecutive Slashes: Shatter!"
A cold glint of light bloomed on the left hand of Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King), knocking away the hand that held the pipa.
He flipped his wrist and swung down with force.
"Fast Slash!"
At that same moment, Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King) also roared, "Brahma Sound Resonance!"
A brilliant golden light was released!
【HP: 887/1125 · MP: 675/918】
*Ptui!*
Tang Zheng spat out a mouthful of blood. Gritting his teeth, he endured the stabbing pain all over his body and continued to swing the Pain of Ice Fang.
The right hand of Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King) that held the pipa was struck, and the magic item—which looked like wood but had a metallic texture—fell from the air.
In that instant, Tang Zheng didn't even have time to observe before activating another Martial Skill: "Instant Reflection!"
His body was covered in a layer of blue light.
Tang Zheng's posture instantly reset to how it was before he attacked. Ignoring the stabbing pain and the rising fatigue, he roared, "Four Light Consecutive Slashes: Shatter!"
This time, the target of his attack was Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King), who was standing to the side.
However, the previous attack from Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King) had also damaged the Shadow Clone, causing the ninjutsu to be dispelled.
Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King) regained control of his body. It was unclear if he had sensed some kind of danger or if some special mechanic had been triggered.
"Merit and virtue are like clouds, yet you bring lightning upon yourself!"
Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King) roared with furious majesty, raising the five-colored umbrella with one hand. "Dare to Offend Me!"
The wide-area golden light that Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King) had just released hadn't even dissipated before it was siphoned, gathering into the body of Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King).
Immediately after, two golden beams of light were released from the palm of Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King)'s free arm.
*Bang!*
The Shadow Clone was instantly destroyed.
The other golden beam slammed directly into Tang Zheng's chest, just as the attack from the Pain of Ice Fang also struck the palm of the hand Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King) was using to hold the umbrella.
*Clatter!*
His palm opened, and the five-colored umbrella magic item fell.
*CRACK!*
The red armor of his Physical Armament shattered on his chest, and the powerful recoil sent him flying into the air.
The dull impact made Tang Zheng's chest go numb, and he felt as if blood was about to surge up his throat, but he had no time to worry about it now.
Bloodshot veins appeared in the whites of his eyes!
The entire sequence had happened within one second.
He still had two seconds left!
"Silent Cast—Tenth-Tier Magic: Compound Elemental Summoning—Storm Elemental Spirit!"
"Prepare Magic—Tenth-Tier: Storm Elemental Spirit!"
In an instant, two spirits shaped like yellow sand whirlwinds appeared simultaneously in front of the disarmed Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King) and Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King), pouncing forward.
Having lost their buff enhancements and with their weapons dropped due to the mechanic, the two Heavenly Kings offered no resistance, allowing the two elemental spirits to get within close-combat range.
*Swoosh! Swoosh!*
The two spirits were summoned almost instantly! During this process, Tang Zheng threw two potions from his item box.
'Blend Potion'. Struck by the sharp, sandy winds released by the Storm Elemental Spirits themselves, the potion bottles shattered, and the liquid splashed onto the elemental spirits.
*VMMMM— VMMMM—*
An incredible scene unfolded. The two Storm Elemental Spirits actually began to show signs of fusing with the two Heavenly Kings.
One second!
"Goddess Kali's Sigh: Elemental Extinction Day!" Tang Zheng roared.
A giant ripple appeared in the air above and behind Tang Zheng's head, and the enormous phantom of a woman materialized in the sky above.
She lowered her head, looking down upon the two Heavenly Kings below!
"Aah~"
A long, drawn-out sigh echoed.
Zero seconds!
Tang Zheng's vision went white. His body, still airborne from being knocked back, could no longer hold it in, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood before crashing heavily to the ground.
"Cough, cough..."
Tang Zheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, quickly flipped to his feet, and looked ahead.
The figure of Goddess Kali had already vanished!
He saw that the two Heavenly Kings, Dhṛtarāṣṭra and Vaiśravaṇa, were once again holding their respective magic items, their faint golden figures standing motionless.
However, the head of Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King) was incomplete, as if it had been split in two by some force, and the entire left side of his body was gone.
Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King) was in an even more exaggerated state, with only one arm and half of his upper body left floating in mid-air.
The other parts of the two Heavenly Kings' bodies seemed to have been erased completely, leaving only empty space. The contrast between their majestic, faintly glowing remnants and the void was utterly bizarre.
A pair of barely pieced-together eyes lifted, looking at Tang Zheng's position with silent majesty as a Buddhist chant emanated from the two Heavenly Kings.
"A wild heart knows no rest; only in rest is there enlightenment," the half-head of Dhṛtarāṣṭra (Heavenly King) turned slightly.
"Cultivating both merit and wisdom is the path to enlightenment," Vaiśravaṇa (Heavenly King) softly chanted, as if reciting a sutra to himself.
The next moment, the bodies of the two Heavenly Kings disintegrated, turning into sparks of light and vanishing.
"The gamble paid off."
The tension that had just seized Tang Zheng's nerves finally eased, and he let out a heavy sigh of relief.
He had thought it failed.
The time was too short, so the fusion of the elemental spirits was clearly incomplete. Otherwise, the two Heavenly Kings would likely have been completely annihilated.
"The tier of this trump card skill is even higher than I expected." A profound glint flickered in Tang Zheng's eyes as he straightened up, clutching his chest.
*Crack! Crack!*
At that moment, the entire space began to shatter.
Tang Zheng knew clearly that he would have to face the other two Heavenly Kings next. He had already used one of his trump cards.
