After the two little ones left, Chen Shouyi slowly rose to his feet.
"What was bound to come has finally arrived."
He drew a deep breath. The air began to warp, the magnetic field of the earth grew chaotic, and an indescribable aura radiated from his body.
The clothes on his body crumbled as if weathered, then turned to dust and dispersed into the air.
At the same time, black armor rapidly spread over his body. His frame began to swell, and the earth beneath his feet cracked and caved in. Before long, a towering giant over sixty meters tall stood upon the land like a mountain peak.
The Lord of Lightning's senses were incomparably keen. The moment Chen Shouyi released his aura, the Lord sensed him. The Lord froze for a moment, then a murderous intent as fierce as a suppressed volcano erupted.
The last time, the Lord had returned empty-handed. For the Lord, it had been a humiliating disgrace.
The Lord had been careless and underestimated the enemy, stumbling into a trap and getting badly wounded by two wretched insects, leaving the Lord no choice but to sleep and recover.
But there would be no second time.
The Lord would crush the insect to pieces and devour his soul.
The wind grew stronger, and lightning flashed and thunder boomed across the sky.
The earth began to tremble. Countless broken stones leaped violently, then floated into the air. Amid it all, countless hymns and chants surged like a vast tide, sweeping mountains before them. It seemed as if the entire world were ruled by a single will. A heavy weight pressed on Chen Shouyi's heart, leaving him somewhat short of breath.
"This aura is even stronger than last time. What a terrifying Faith Domain." His heart grew slightly heavy.
