Chapter 555: Four Six Six Thunder Dao Fourth Boundary_2

When Sun Wukong said this, he might not have thought much of it, but as the words fell on everyone’s ears, was it not a mockery of Jiang Chen for being a jack of all trades but a master of none?

A jack of all trades but a master of none...

Ha-ha...

Coloured lights flickered on Sun Wukong, first dispelling the surrounding thunder little by little, and then annihilating it into nothingness.

Quietly increasing the distance between himself and Jiang Chen, Sun Wukong asked in disbelief, "Really, you only plan to use Thunder Law against me this time, and not any other Divine Abilities or Magic Treasures?"

He was aware of Jiang Chen’s means. First, there were his powerful Magic Treasures, followed by his endless mighty Divine Abilities. As for Thunder Law, he hadn’t seen Jiang Chen use it very often, so he assumed that Jiang Chen’s training in it wasn’t very profound.

Humans had their limits. Sun Wukong didn’t believe that Jiang Chen, who was so preoccupied with practicing so many Divine Abilities, could still have the energy to cultivate Thunder Law to the point of perfection.

Guessing Sun Wukong’s thoughts, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but smile. This monkey’s thinking was indeed simple. It was true that humans had their limits, but Divine Abilities did not.

Just because he hadn’t practiced Thunder Law, does that mean he couldn’t perfect Thunder Dao? This was a big misconception. If one managed to perfectly cultivate the Yin and Yang Dao, even without practicing Thunder Law, they could naturally grasp the essence of Thunder Dao and become a master of it.

With hands akimbo, Jiang Chen confidently replied, "I, Jiang Chen, always keep my word. If I say I’ll beat you with Thunder Law, I won’t use any other means."

At his words, Sun Wukong’s eyes brightened. Raising his Golden Hoop Club, he took a swing at Jiang Chen, and at the same time, he didn’t forget to say, "This is what you claim, not something forced out of you by me. If you capsize here, don’t get angry out of shame."

"Otherwise you, the Emperor Lord of the Heaven Court, will lose all your dignity and become a laughing stock among all beings in the Three Realms."

Sun Wukong was still the same old Sun Wukong. He took advantage of the situation and blocked Jiang Chen’s retreat in case he changed his mind.

Jiang Chen just smiled without replying, and instead unleashed tens of thousands of innate thunders in retaliation to Sun Wukong.

Meanwhile, the immortals in Heaven Court who were watching the scene through the Haotian Mirror were buzzing with discussions.

"The Emperor Lord is really brave. This is not just about killing someone, but also about destroying their spirit."

"Exactly, there is nothing more demoralizing than being defeated in your area of expertise."

Of course, where there was praise, there was concern.

"But, isn’t the Emperor Lord taking a huge risk with this move?"

"That monkey’s Divine Abilities are clearly exceptional and are tied to the Five Elements, which are a counter to Thunder Law. I fear it’s not a good idea for the Emperor Lord to use Thunder Law against him."

"The Five Elements encompass all things, and thunder is one of them. If Thunder Law is weak, it might become nourishment for the Five Elements, bolstering their power. The Emperor Lord’s choice to use Thunder Law against his enemy might be a bad strategy."

Very soon, a heated debate ensued among the immortals in the palace regarding the advantages and disadvantages of Jiang Chen’s choice of Thunder Law. This instantly animated the usually quiet Lingxiao Palace.

That was until the Jade Emperor spoke.

"All my subjects, can any of you tell me what these four levels of Thunder Dao that Jiuchen just mentioned are? Have you ever heard of them?"

At his words, everyone looked at each other, their faces full of confusion.

Thunder Law was one of the foundations of the Mystic Sect, and all the immortals knew a thing or two about it. But they had never heard of the four levels of Thunder Dao before, and found it quite intriguing.

After thinking for a moment, one of them said, "The theory of Four Levels of Thunder Dao has never appeared before. Presumably, it was recently summarized by the Emperor Lord and has not been announced to the public yet, so we all are unaware."

The Jade Emperor nodded in agreement with this explanation, and then turned his gaze back to the Haotian Mirror.

Clearly, the theory of Four Levels of Thunder Dao had piqued the Jade Emperor’s curiosity, making him more excited about the duel between Jiang Chen and Sun Wukong. He was eager to know what these four levels actually were.

Seeing this, the other immortals stopped discussing the pros and cons of Jiang Chen’s choice of Thunder Law and, like the Jade Emperor, turned their gazes towards the Haotian Mirror, equally curious about the Four Levels of Thunder Dao theory.

Once he had built up his foundation, Sun Wukong’s body naturally emanated a radiance of five colours, which formed a barrier around him, isolating the inside from the outside.

It was clear that no matter how violently the surrounding thunder was raging, it could not get close to him at all.

Any thunder which managed to get slightly closer would be absorbed by the colored light and then transformed into pure innate life essence. This energized Sun Wukong’s body and strengthened his power.

This was a common method Jiang Chen used against his enemies. Unexpectedly, it was now being used against him.

Indeed, what goes around, comes around.

Seeing Sun Wukong about to attack himself under the cover of a veil of thunder, Jiang Chen smiled faintly. Suddenly, the thunder beside him changed.

Boom, boom, boom!

More and more innate thunders flickered behind Jiang Chen, constantly coalescing, and compressing. They gradually solidified into various types of weapons.

Swords, spears, halberds, axes, clubs, and more... they were countless.

These weapons were formed from innate thunder. They spread out behind Jiang Chen, large and small adding up to tens of thousands in total. They filled half the sky.

Thunder flashes danced on them, casting a cold, sharp light, all pointing at Sun Wukong.

"This is the second level in the Four Levels of Thunder Dao — the Mimicry Realm. With the power of thunder, I can simulate any object. Sun Wukong, brace yourself."

As soon as his words fell, tens of thousands of thunders exploded. The tens of thousands of weapons floating behind Jiang Chen shot out like bullets in a carpet-bombing manner towards Sun Wukong.
