Zhou Wen felt his heart skip a beat. He could only place his hopes on the Chaos Egg, hoping that it could withstand the power of the lightning.
However, in an instant, Zhou Wen felt a chill run down his spine. The power of the lightning seeped into the Chaos Egg and struck him.
Even the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder and Truth Listener, which had been activated ahead of time, were useless.
Zhou Wen shivered as the Chaos Egg automatically dissipated, exposing his body.
I'm doomed! Zhou Wen's body and mind trembled as he felt his calves and stomach cramp. He was only a human, so he was afraid of death, much less like Shenluo.
He wanted to resist, but he realized that the Essence Energy in his body had been sucked away by the lightning that had invaded his body.
The Essence Qi was like iron powder, and the lightning was like a magnet. It was sucked clean in an instant, leaving nothing behind.
Without Essence Energy, Zhou Wen couldn't do anything. He couldn't even throw the Demonic Neonate in his arms.
Now, Zhou Wen finally knew what it felt like when Shenluo was struck. It was no wonder Shenluo didn't have a chance to resist. If it were Zhou Wen, he wouldn't have a chance to resist either.
Zhou Wen could sense that after the lightning sucked his Essence Energy, it retreated like the receding tide.
However, before it could leave Zhou Wen's body, the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder on his Wheel of Destiny automatically lit up without the support of his Essence Energy.
The lightning that was retreating at high speed actually stopped. As though it had been attracted, it headed for the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder.
Zhou Wen was pleasantly surprised. Although he had previously discovered that the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder could attract the light dots, Zhou Wen felt that it was very likely that the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder couldn't withstand such terrifying energy after seeing Shenluo's outcome.
The lightning surged into the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder and it automatically opened. Some strange words gradually appeared on the blank page.
Zhou Wen didn't recognize any of the words, but for some reason, he could vaguely understand their meaning.
Shenluo lay on the ground, panting with great difficulty. However, his eyes were staring intently at Zhou Wen, unwilling to take his last breath. It was as though he was waiting for Zhou Wen to walk the path to the netherworld with him.
Nine Yang looked at Zhou Wen, who had been struck by lightning. After a moment of silence, he extended his hand and took out something. It was a strange bead that looked like a tiny sun.
With the divine pearl in hand, the Sun Divine Light on Nine Yang's body intensified. He stared at Zhou Wen as though he wanted to do something.
Another bolt of lightning fell. The nine suns shone with divine light, making it hard to see anything in the surrounding area. The powerful divine light of the sun bombarded the lightning.
"Nine Suns … What are you doing … Cough, cough …" Shen Luo screamed hysterically. He coughed up blood with all his might.
"He is my opponent. Even if he dies, he will die by my hands," Nine Suns replied calmly.
However, just as he said that, Nine Suns' expression changed drastically. The Sun Divine Light, which was augmented by the holy artifact, still failed to block that bolt of lightning.
The lightning vanished like a ghost. When it appeared again, it had already struck Zhou Wen.
At the sight of this, Shen Luo laughed maniacally. His face was as hideous as a demon's.
But soon, Shen Luo's smile froze on his face.
When he was struck by the second bolt of lightning, his body rapidly aged and he lost his vitality. However, the same thing didn't happen to Zhou Wen after he was struck by the second bolt of lightning.
Not only did Zhou Wen's aura not weaken, but it also seemed to become stronger. It was as though an invisible force was bursting forth from his body.
Nine Yang was slightly taken aback. He stopped in his tracks and stood there looking at Zhou Wen.
Rumble!
A series of explosive sounds came from the ball of light in the sky. Bolts of lightning formed a thunderstorm that continuously struck Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen's entire body seemed to be bathed in lightning, but his body didn't decline like Shen Luo's. Instead, his aura became stronger and stronger.
"Impossible … Impossible …" Shen Luo widened his eyes as though he had gone mad. He shouted angrily, but his voice was so hoarse that it was hard to hear.
Words kept appearing on the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder in Zhou Wen's body. Every bolt of lightning that entered it would form some words on the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder.
The shape of the words was strange, but one could understand their meaning at a glance.
From the looks of it, that thing is indeed the domain core that was shattered back then. Furthermore, it happens to be compatible with my Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder. It sure benefited me. Zhou Wen felt mixed emotions as he instantly went from hell to heaven.
Zhou Wen didn't know if this was considered luck. Although he had already discovered that the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder could absorb the light spots, he wouldn't have had the chance to absorb them if Shen Luo hadn't drawn out the shattered domain core.
I wonder what the domain core looked like before it was shattered. Zhou Wen stared at the blob of light in the sky and realized that it was gradually shrinking.
The blob of light clearly wasn't the true appearance of the domain core. It was just an amalgamation of fragments. It was impossible to know what the true domain core looked like.
Unless he could encounter the ancient experts who had participated in the battle back then, it would be very difficult to know what the core looked like.
Zhou Wen was actually still somewhat puzzled. The domain core was already so terrifying in its shattered state. It could easily kill Shen Luo, who had a Holy artifact. How strong was it when it was complete?
To be able to attract so many experts to compete for it, the domain core was clearly extraordinary.
More and more words appeared on the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder. Finally, it began to condense the domain's power. Zhou Wen could sense that the power of the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder was constructing a nomological domain.
Zhou Wen's body floated in the air as a strange force spread out with his body as the center.
This was because the original ancient city ruins were nearby. The ancient city ruins within the domain's range were undergoing strange changes.
The broken walls, stone pillars, and ground were like a movie playing in reverse, restoring their original appearance.
The weathered wall bricks were gradually mended, and the broken parts of the stone pillars appeared out of thin air. The entire ancient city seemed to be reversing time.
Zhou Wen … Is he condensing a domain to advance to the Calamity stage? Carlos couldn't move his eyes away from the magical and strange scene.
They hadn't run far when they realized that something was amiss. When they turned back and saw this scene, they were stunned.
Zhou Wen … He seems to have a pure human body … You Kai sized up Zhou Wen's body as his expression turned even odder.
It wasn't only You Kai. Nine Yang also realized the same problem. Zhou Wen didn't have any traces of Spirit Casting, nor did he have the characteristics of a dimensional creature after using the Mythical Fluid. No matter how he looked at it, he was a pure human.
A pure-blooded human advancing to the Calamity stage? Nine Yang stood there in a daze as he looked at Zhou Wen.
