Chapter 157: Father and Son Joining Forces in Battle

Having gained the advantage, Tu Zhe simply opened the passageway between his spiritual domain and the Alaya-vijnana space, allowing the surging thunderbolts, lightning, and thunder-waves to pour in like a tide.

Looking now at the Qingxu Thunder Water and the sea monsters within it, the Qingxu Thunder Water erupted with boundless electric light, thoroughly refining and purifying the earthy substances of the collapsed Meteor Continent previously trapped in the water. Various elements instantly separated from the water and deposited in massive amounts onto the glazed ground. This caused the glazed ground not only to expand rapidly in area and deepen in thickness, but also made the glaze itself much purer. The crumbling glazed ground instantly stabilized and became incomparably hard.

Meanwhile, the colossal sea monsters generated by the Taihuang Thunder were originally the purest aggregates of elemental energy and the manifestation of vibrant vitality. The moment they entered Tu Zhe's spiritual domain, their consciousnesses were instantly scrambled. The various sea monsters began a chaotic, pitched battle that darkened the sky and eclipsed the sun. Countless sea monsters were blasted into powder, transforming into the purest elements that seeped into the glazed ground, making it dazzlingly brilliant and teeming with vitality. Some seven-treasure flower trees even began to sprout simultaneously, leaving the pig-slayer laughing heartily.

At this moment, outside, the tribulation clouds grew even heavier under the shaping of the Righteous Heart Thunder, and more terrifying thunderbolts were brewing.

Simultaneously, the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke, who had manifested long ago, suddenly emitted boundless brilliance from between his brows, piercing through heaven and earth and reaching straight down to the Nine Netherworlds. Carrying supreme majesty, the light swept directly toward Tu Zhe's spiritual domain.

Astoundingly, the domain was completely unable to block the entry of the Spirit-Shifting Thunder; it instantly shattered the spiritual domain and penetrated deep into the Alaya-vijnana space.

Tu Zhe felt his Alaya-vijnana space become flooded with a majestic heavenly might and the will of the Heavenly Dao. Cracks began to appear one after another across the walls of the Alaya-vijnana space.

These cracks instantly caused Tu Zhe's spiritual sense to ache and his willpower to falter. A burning, sharp pain spread through his consciousness, almost forcing him to give up the support of his domain.

How perilous! If the spiritual domain were to collapse, the boundless heavenly tribulation would instantly destroy the pig-slayer without leaving even a trace of dust behind.

Fortunately, both his spiritual sense and willpower were incomparably formidable. After a slight shudder, he quickly reinforced his domain and began absorbing the Heavenly God soul power at an even faster rate.

Just as the doggy and the young maiden Su let out gasps of surprise, and even Erlang Shen frowned, preparing to step in and rescue Tu Zhe, the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke never expected that his attack would disturb a certain little ancestor.

When this little ancestor got angry, the consequences were very serious.

This little ancestor was none of other than Orange Baby, who had been sleeping for many days right beside the golden seed hidden within Tu Zhe's Alaya-vijnana space.

Ever since refining the four divine-grade king-tier Brahma Crystals, Orange Baby had fallen into a deep sleep, a state basically identical to Red Baby's previous condition.

Originally, it was uncertain how much longer Orange Baby would take to wake up, but today he was truly disturbed by the heavenly tribulation. Especially when the Spirit-Shifting Thunder—specifically targeting human spiritual consciousness—entered the Alaya-vijnana space and wreaked havoc, the sharp pain in his spiritual sense during a pleasant dream caused Orange Baby to open his eyes.

However, this stubborn kid did not get up immediately. Instead, he blinked his sleepy eyes half-open, scanning around the space. Only after figuring out the situation did he stand up with a depressed expression, stretch, yawned lazily, and then slowly strolled out of his little daddy's spiritual altar.

Arriving outside, he looked up into the tribulation clouds and spotted the Spirit-Shifting Thunder, which originated from a sharp-mouthed, monkey-cheeked elder. He squinted sideways at the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke for a long time, but seeing no intention from the old fellow to stop, Tu the Second grew annoyed and started cursing:

"What kind of abomination do you think you are up there? Are you ever going to finish? I curse your eastern neighbor, and then I curse your western neighbor! If you don't stop right now, see if your Second Grandfather doesn't fly into a rage and wipe you out, you old bastard!"

Was the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke in the heavenly tribulation merely a manifestation of natural will, or did he truly possess independent consciousness? It seemed to be the latter.

Because he understood Tu the Second's verbal abuse and flew into a towering rage because of it.

The Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke's own inconceivably powerful spiritual sense was already terrifying enough. Enraged now, he directly thrust out a sharp, giant claw, tearing through the barrier between the Qingxu Thunder Water and space, and lunged straight at Tu the Second.

Tu the Second curled his little lip in disdain, hummed a few times, and vanished with a flash, causing the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke to grab at empty air.

Just as the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke was looking around in confusion, he had no idea that Tu the Second had already appeared right behind his head. With a cheeky grin, Tu the Second waved his little hand, and a small knife appeared in his grasp. He brandished the Mana Blade back and forth over the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke's niwan palace, deliberately holding back his attack, leaving everyone outside the heavenly tribulation staring with wide-eyed astonishment.

Although the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke possessed his own will, he still lacked sufficient intelligence to deduce certain events from circumstantial clues.

After all, he was not a real human, let alone a true god; he was merely a thunder spirit born from natural lightning.

Therefore, when he saw everyone staring at him strangely, he didn't realize that Orange Baby was already brandishing a small knife right above his head.

Based on his meager intelligence, he assumed he was being mocked by the crowd, which made the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke exceptionally furious.

Feeling that he represented the will of Heaven, he found it completely intolerable to be mocked by these mortals.

Thus, the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke roared and unleashed his vast spiritual sense, sweeping it out to blast the hidden Tu the Second into the open. He was confident that as long as his spiritual sense so much as brushed Tu the Second, it would throw the latter's consciousness into chaos, shatter his willpower, and turn him into a madman.

However, Tu the Second suddenly blinked, as if he had changed his mind. With a flick of his little hand, he put away the Mana Blade, suddenly grabbed the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke's scale-and-bacterial-covered head with both small hands, took a ferocious bite, tore off a huge chunk, and began to chew with a smacking sound.

The young maiden Su instantly covered her mouth. Since the dawn of cultivation history, who had ever heard of someone undergoing a tribulation taking a bite out of the Thunder Duke representing the tribulation itself?

Such an unheard-of event was not only beyond belief; it was downright perverted.

Tu the Second smacked his lips as he consumed the chunk of flesh and blood from the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke. Swallowing it down, he nodded, signaling that the taste was quite decent, and prepared to take another bite.

However, the Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke's space-shattering howl erupted, directly blasting Tu the Second thousands of kilometers away.

The Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke could never have imagined that he, representing supreme heavenly punishment, would actually suffer the indignity of being bitten one day. This simply could not be described merely as humiliation.

What did losing face even amount to?

The dignity of Heaven, the legends of Heaven, were shattered in the very instant he was bitten, trampled upon by this stubborn kid.

The Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke was instantly so furious he felt like dying. Roaring wildly, he arched his back and charged toward Tu the Second, who had been blasted away. He wanted to annihilate him and tear him to pieces.

He had to wash away the shame of being the first Thunder Duke in history to be bitten.

However, Tu the Second, who had been blown away, was not injured at all. He scrambled to his feet, cursed a blue streak, and vanished with another flash.

The Spirit-Shifting Thunder Duke abruptly halted his fierce charge forward, the momentum causing his claws to shatter countless streams of Qingxu Thunder Water. The void along his path was slashed by his claws, leaving a trail of sparks.

A pitch-black crack, thousands of kilometers long, ripped across the fabric of space.
