Chapter 271: Chapter 271: Evil God’s Advent, Thunder Emperor’s Personal Arrival
Deep within the Chen Family’s Ancient Mansion.
At the center of the altar.
At this moment, Chen Ming looked completely different from before.
His gaze was sinister. The look he gave Gu Yuexi was no longer one of hatred, but of excitement, contempt, and… greed.
Then, he looked down at his own body, seemingly in disgust.
“A dead body… It stinks!”
But soon after, he sniffed the air and said with intoxicated delight,
“However, this planet… is so delectable…”
Before he could finish, a black flame suddenly and silently erupted on his chest!
It was the Celestial Flame that Chu Sheng had just unleashed!
The flame spread rapidly, engulfing Chen Ming’s entire body. His flesh visibly charred and necrotized.
However, Chen Ming seemed to feel no pain. He raised his hand, looking at the fire on his body, and remarked with some surprise,
“What a peculiar flame.”
“A pity it’s not quite powerful enough.”
As soon as he spoke, a halo of Energy lit up around him. The halo enveloped the fire, and then, as if shrugging off a coat, Chen Ming shed the black flames from his body.
The Celestial Flame, encased in the halo of Energy, fell to the ground. With nothing left to burn, it slowly flickered out.
Chen Ming’s body was now charred black, with bone exposed in some places.
But he seemed completely unconcerned.
“Since this body is no longer usable, then…”
“It’s time for a new one!”
The moment he finished speaking, he moved with sudden violence and vanished.
The next instant, he reappeared in front of Gu Yuexi, his finger jabbing toward the center of her forehead.
Gu Yuexi reacted with extreme speed and tried to retreat, but suddenly, the Space around her seemed to freeze solid!
Just as Chen Ming’s finger was about to touch Gu Yuexi’s forehead,
Chu Sheng’s figure suddenly appeared on her shoulder.
SWISH!
Chen Ming’s bizarre strike hit nothing but air.
Gu Yuexi and Chu Sheng reappeared a short distance away.
Gu Yuexi’s expression was grave.
“It seems the person known as Chen Ming is well and truly dead.”
“The one inside his body now is that… Evil God.”
Chu Sheng nodded, indicating he understood.
He had originally planned to block that attack, but his instincts screamed danger, so he chose to evade with Gu Yuexi instead.
’This so-called Evil God is probably going to be a handful.’
’We haven’t even run into a regular Alien Race member yet, and now we’re up against one of their gods?’
’How are we supposed to fight this?!’
…
Meanwhile.
Outside the Chen Family’s Ancient Mansion.
Qi Chongshan’s face was etched with anxiety.
He had tried many times, but he was completely helpless against the Space Array before him.
’So much time has passed. I wonder how Gu Yuexi and that mosquito are doing inside.’
Just then, an incredibly powerful bolt of lightning flashed. Not far from Qi Chongshan, a patch of Space suddenly shattered like glass. A fist punched through this “Space Glass,” and a towering figure stepped out.
Joy flashed in Qi Chongshan’s eyes!
The Great Xia Thunder Emperor, Lei Xiaotian.
“Old Lei, you’re finally here!”
Qi Chongshan eagerly rushed forward, only to be met with a glare from Lei Xiaotian.
“Hmph. Qi Chongshan, didn’t I tell you that the bond between us was severed? That you shouldn’t seek me out?”
“You’re the Governor of a province, for crying out loud. Why are you always so reckless? To find me this time, you actually crushed the Jade Pendant!”
Lei Xiaotian’s voice was laced with suppressed fury. He looked Qi Chongshan up and down, and seeing him unharmed only made him angrier!
“We agreed when we graduated! This Jade Pendant was our final token, not to be used unless it was a matter of life and death!”
“You’d better have a damned good explanation!”
Qi Chongshan looked guilty, but he couldn’t worry about saving face right now. He hurried forward and rapidly explained the situation.
He recounted everything, from the strange incidents in Du Nan City to tracking the source to the Chen Family’s Ancient Mansion, and finally, Gu Yuexi and her Contracted Beast being trapped in the Space Array.
“What?!”
The anger on Lei Xiaotian’s face was instantly replaced by shock, his voice rising sharply.
“You let that girl, Gu Yuexi, walk into danger again? This is the second time! Don’t you know how important she and her Contracted Beast are to the higher-ups in the Ministry of Education right now?”
“And an Alien Race? How could an Alien Race possibly appear within Sui Ming Province?! Qi Chongshan, you…!”
He was so furious his chest heaved, and sparks of electricity flickered in the air around him.
“Old Lei! This isn’t the time to be assigning blame!”
Sweat beaded on Qi Chongshan’s forehead in his panic. He pointed at the Ancient Mansion, which appeared calm on the surface but was actually surrounded by distorted Space.
“They’ve been in there for a while! We don’t know what’s happening inside. Every second we delay is another second of danger! Hurry up and break the Array!”
Lei Xiaotian suppressed his rage. He, too, knew what was most important.
“Hmph!”
He snorted coldly and focused on the Space Array ahead, his expression turning grave.
“This is troublesome! I’ve comprehended the Thunder Origin, but my Spatial Realm is only at the Minor Success Realm! The only reason I can shatter the void to travel is by relying on the brute force of my Thunder Power to tear open a spatial passage!”
“The spatial fluctuations of this Array are extremely strange. I can’t see through it either.”
“If we want to get in, it seems the only way is to blast it open by force!”
Without another word, Lei Xiaotian erupted with a dazzling blue light of lightning! A tyrannical aura shot into the sky!
He opened his hand, then slowly clenched it into a fist. Instantly, endless thunder seemed to gather upon it from the void!
His fist now resembled a miniature sun, a ball of pure lightning!
“Break for me!”
Lei Xiaotian roared and threw a punch.
BOOM!!!
The berserk Thunder Power transformed into a massive pillar of lightning several meters in diameter, slamming into the Space Array within the Ancient Mansion with an aura of total annihilation!
RUMBLE!
The very earth trembled under the force of this punch.
Inside the Ancient Mansion, the previously invisible Space Array was forced to reveal itself by the blow!
A massive, transparent spatial barrier was revealed to be covering most of the mansion grounds. Outside the barrier, the estate was dilapidated, but inside, it was opulent and magnificent!
At this moment.
Under the Thunder Emperor’s fist, the spatial barrier twisted and warped violently, sending out countless ripples. The wasteland surrounding the Ancient Mansion was scorched to a crisp by the stray lightning, and all the weeds and vines were annihilated by the Thunder Power.
However, when the lightning dissipated, the expressions on both Qi Chongshan and Lei Xiaotian’s faces turned incredibly ugly!
The Space Array hadn’t broken!
The Thunder Emperor’s Thunder Power was immense, but an extremely bizarre Energy on the Space Array was somehow able to steadily suppress it.
“This Energy…?!”
Lei Xiaotian’s eyes went wide, his face a mask of utter shock.
“An Alien Race… it really is an Alien Race!”
“This kind of Energy is exactly what the Alien Race uses innately.”
“This Space Array was actually created with Alien Race Energy. And the fact that it can suppress my Thunder Power means the level of this Energy is extraordinary!”
“Only… an Emperor Level Alien Race member could wield it!!!”
