Chapter 196: Second Breath

"I… shall not…fall here!" the words were spoken through the blood and muck covering Meng Hao's face as he raised a hand up, "Bring it on, Heavens!"

And then, thunder boomed as the heavens agreed to Meng Hao's challenge and laced down with a thunderbolt as thick as a tree trunk down towards Meng Hao's extended hand.

The electric shock from the thunderbolt wasn't even worth Meng Hao's expressions to twist and sower as he took it in like if it was a summer breeze.

With eyes clearer than the bluest of skies, Meng Hao looked up and spoke, "My Dao is to defy and rise above the rest, even you, heavens, one day I'll bring you under this very foot of mine!"

His words, a clear blasphemy against the authority of heaven caused the latter to rage and roil as its clouds began darkening to an even darker shade of red, and then three more thunderbolts even thicker than the one before shot down at Meng Hao.
