"boom!!!"
The eruption of subterranean fire had just ended when another deafening roar resounded.
With the inner core shattered, endless electric current spread rapidly throughout the entire space, instantly turning all debris into nothingness wherever it passed.
The attacks that were originally aimed at the Thunder Roc Demon King quickly disappeared into the seawater along with the intense lightning.
As is well known, seawater conducts electricity.
The power of the inner core's self-destruction was so immense, and it unfolded on the seabed, that the demons who were originally chasing the Thunder Roc Demon King were also blown away by the shockwave of the explosion.
In particular, Wailord, which had been relentlessly pursuing them, was the first to be hit and suffered heavy damage, its massive body being swept backward.
Rolling bolts of lightning darted about on the seabed, destroying not only the surrounding reefs but also blasting a massive crater hundreds of meters deep into the nearby earth, where lava was still gushing forth.
Young Master Wang, who was hiding in the reef, was naturally forced to reveal himself again.
Wang Zheng hadn't expected the demon king to be so decisive, self-destructing without a word. Seeing Lei Peng, whose aura was weakened, revealing a cruel smile to him, Wang Zheng sensed something was wrong and turned to run away.
"Hahaha, come on, you bunch of idiots, chase me! I'm going to take you all down with me today, and nobody will get any of this benefit!"
In the blink of an eye, the Thunder Roc Demon King seized the opportunity to stand up and roared to the sky, "Die!"
As the words fell, a dark bolt of lightning, carrying an ancient aura, flew out from the Thunder Roc Demon King and sped towards the rocky ruins ahead.
Upon closer inspection, what else could it be but the Xuanlei Pearl that he had devoured beneath the rolling lightning?
Despite its fierce words, after spitting out the thunder pearl, the Golden-Winged Thunder Roc did not linger. Dragging its severely injured body, it plunged into the endless abyss of the sea...
Who is Young Master Wang? He had already seen through Lei Peng's idea of throwing out the Origin Lightning to escape when Lei Peng was all fierce and preparing to self-destruct.
But no matter how much spiritual energy Wang Shao increased, the crimson cloud seemed to have taken root, remaining firmly rooted in place and motionless.
Having lost the initiative, Wang Zheng was extremely anxious and immediately left the cloud, intending to escape the scene on his own.
However, his pitiful speed was no match for the fierce lightning bolt.
The pearl, which was still spewing out black lightning, arrived in front of Wang Zheng in the blink of an eye. Then, like a swallow returning to its nest, it flew straight towards Wang Zheng, and there was no way to dodge it.
Faced with this sudden lightning bead, Young Master Wang not only lost control of the Crimson Cloud, but even his protective spiritual energy failed to react.
The next second, the pitch-black lightning bolt plunged straight into Wang Zheng's body and vanished instantly...
At this moment, everyone was shocked by Lei Peng's crazy behavior, and then they chased after Wang Zheng while cursing.
A demon king, now revealing its true form on the seabed, was clearly enraged. As it passed by the faintly aura-filled, listless Lei Peng, it swung its massive tail, sending the culprit flying backward. Lei Peng's bones were broken, and it coughed up blood.
Fortunately, this demon king was born with a body of steel and iron, which saved his life.
Seeing the greed on the faces of his fellow demons around him, his resentful eyes etched the names of all the demon kings present into his memory. Then, he concealed all his aura and sank into the abyss...
At this moment, Young Master Wang, who had been dragged into this mess by Lei Peng, was so angry that he was about to curse!
In all honesty, he was just a lowly A-level Awakened One; how could he possibly deserve the "passionate pursuit" of so many demon kings?
Fortunately, since he absorbed the Thunder Pearl, the Crimson Cloud seemed to have re-established a connection with him and had now recovered. With no other options, Young Master Wang fled while carefully sensing the changes within his body.
Right after the lightning entered his body, besides seeing his spiritual energy limit rise rapidly, his materialization progress also suddenly surged, reaching a perfect 100% level. Apart from that, he did not receive any other boosts.
Even so, the icon for "Creation of Heaven and Earth" remained completely black and was not unlocked.
In other words, it offers absolutely no real help to the perilous situation he is currently facing, let alone any nonsense about opening a void passage.
When Lei Peng himself failed to rush into the passage where lightning erupted, Young Master Wang knew that the reason was definitely just something the cunning demon king made up on the spot.
But now that it was happening to him, he desperately longed to truly possess such an ability...
"Damn it, doesn't he know what time it is? Is this the kind of time to be greedy for small gains?!"
Wang Zheng cursed inwardly, knowing that the abnormality just now must have been caused by that ferocious beast inside his body.
Putting everything else aside, just looking at the fully realized manifestation progress, one can tell that this primordial lightning must be a great tonic for him, otherwise it would have prevented Chi Yun from letting him escape.
But despite his complaints, Young Master Wang knew that complaining wouldn't improve his situation.
Feeling a slight numbness in his body, Wang Zheng knew that he had now replaced the Thunder Roc Demon King and become the focus of everyone's pursuit.
"Stop playing dead! You took the benefits, so you have to take responsibility. If you don't come out and help, and I get captured by these demon kings, you won't be able to survive either!"
Wang Zheng kept communicating with the ferocious beast, hoping to get its help.
He wasn't sure if his threat had worked, because although he still hadn't received any response, he sensed that the crimson cloud seemed to have sped up a bit after his words, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination...
