Chapter 497: Chapter 177: Battle of the Thunder Sound Terraces: Shi Feiyang’s Three Strikes of Shocking Thunder (Part 3)

In an instant, smoke rose from the rebel camp where cries of battle and the clash of weapons intertwined to form an exhilarating war song.

At this moment, thirty thousand Ming soldiers under the leadership of Guo Dunping arrived at the cliff below Hailong Duntun.

The "Flying Eagle Detective" Xie Wen threw countless rope ladders down the cliff for the Ming soldiers to climb up.

Yang Biao, seeing Fujiwara Sonjirou’s gruesome death, the burning of supplies, and unable to withstand Shi Feiyang and the Heroic Sakura Association disciples’ onslaught, led his defeated remnants toward Thunder Sound Terraces.

Here, waiting were Beggar Gang Leader Zhong Renwang, Beggar Gang Elders Ding Hong, Wu Siqun, and Li Xiaoli, along with more than ten thousand disciples from the Celestial Demon Sect’s main altar. After Yang Biao led his defeated remnants into Thunder Sound Terraces, he hid and sent people to contact Zhong Renwang and the Celestial Demon Sect, preparing to ambush Shi Feiyang and his team.

Spring rain fell continuously, fine and ceaseless, gently sprinkling over the Thunder Sound Terraces of Dragon Ridge Thunder God Rock.

The world seemed cloaked in a thin veil, hazy and mysterious. The distant mountains appeared vaguely through the rain mist, resembling a delicate ink wash painting.

Nearby terraces staggered layer upon layer, like steps of the earth, each filled with rainwater, sparkling like countless shattered mirrors in the rain’s mist.

Days later, Shi Feiyang, leading the Heroic Sakura Association and Miao Village disciples, stood solemnly at the edge of the terraces.

Facing them, the rebels were already well-prepared; the "Eight Gates Golden Lock Array" exuded an intimidating aura like a lurking beast.

As Shi Feiyang and his companions stepped into the terraces, it felt as though they had entered a crisis-filled hell.

The first layer of terraces concealed a Blade Wheel Array.

Spring rain fell upon the rotating blade wheels, splashing layers of water; the sharp edges of the wheels glimmered coldly, faintly visible through the rain mist.

The blade wheels spun rapidly, emitting a "whoosh" sound, like a demon’s roar.

Approach too closely, and the high-speed spinning blade wheels would tear one to shreds.

Shi Feiyang observed for a while and then shouted to the group: "Beware the blade wheels, keep your distance, use Lightweight Technique to dodge!"

The heroes obeyed, using their Lightweight Techniques to weave flexibly among the blade wheels. Shi Feiyang instructed Qi Meizhen, Bai Zhi, and the Miao Village Saintess to lead the Heroic Sakura Association disciples and Miao Village disciples to stand by, refrain from advancing, to avoid the rebels’ traps. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

The second layer of terraces was filled with venomous bee nests. Countless bees, aggravated by the spring rain, buzzed wildly, swarming densely toward the heroes. These bees’ stingers contained deadly venom that could paralyze and kill.

Shi Feiyang furrowed his brows, thinking quickly for a counter. Suddenly he shouted: "Use fire attack!"

The heroes immediately fetched fire sticks while "Iron Palm" Wu Zhong used the Inner Power from "Six Harmonies True Scripture" to dry the surrounding grass.

The heroes used fire sticks to ignite the grass, forming a fire wall that effectively repelled the venomous bees.

The third layer of terraces was full of horse traps, appearing tranquil but dangerously deceptive.

Inside the traps were sharp bamboo stakes; once slipped into, one would be pierced, enduring extreme pain.

Continuous spring rain deepened the water inside the traps, increasing the hazard even further.

With sharp eyes, Shi Feiyang surveyed the surroundings in the rain and decisively ordered: "Xie Wen, Jin Liufu, Kong Triangle, and Bin of the Southwest, you know the Eight Trigrams Step, lead the way! Everyone else, be cautious and follow."

The heroes obeyed and moved swiftly across the water’s surface in the rice terraces, their steps light and agile like dragonflies skimming the water, creating rippling waves. They coordinated based on the Eight Trigrams positions, forming a marvelous array on the water to cleverly avoid myriad traps in the terraces. However, the rebels’ "Eight Gates Golden Lock Array" was not easily broken.

As the Heroic Sakura Association heroes delved deeper, the rebel defenses tightened, and attacks came like torrential storms.

Shi Feiyang knew that continuing this way was not a long-term strategy; he must find the key to breaking the array.

Just then, a lightning bolt flashed across the sky, followed by a deafening thunderclap.

Shi Feiyang’s heart sank; he looked up at the sky, seeing pouring rain smashing down, splashing high on the ground.

A plan suddenly came to his mind.

Shi Feiyang loudly commanded, signaling the heroes to raise their blades and swords high.

The blades immediately glimmered bright from the rain wash, flashing coldly in the dim light.

Shi Feiyang gathered all his Inner Strength, channeling True Qi into the Celestial Frost Blade, then swung the sword fiercely, deploying the "Thunder-Invoking Technique" from the "Nine Yin Scripture". A sharp blade light pierced the rain, akin to a lightning bolt.

Shi Feiyang continually swung his blade, creating flashing sword lights, attracting lightning from the sky to gather towards him.

He seized the moment and unleashed the "Three Slashes of Lightning".

The first slash carried mighty force, striking fiercely at one position of the "Eight Gates Golden Lock Array".

He shouted, "First Slash of Lightning, Break!" This slash contained the power of thunder, exploding with mighty roars, as if a furious thunder dragon was rushing, breaching a rebel defense line.

Many rebel soldiers were struck by lightning, instantly falling ablaze, burned to charred corpses, causing chaos in the ranks.

For the second slash, Shi Feiyang spun, the blade light curved, slashing at another position.

"Second Slash of Lightning, Split!" The power of thunder glimmered in the blade light, brilliant and captivating.
