Luo Feng Awakens, The Power of Thunder and Fire

Several days later.

On the floor of the Pacific Ocean.

Across the silt-covered seabed, the Golden Horned Beast, its body black as ink, lay prone.

As its dark golden eyes snapped open, they were filled with cold, murderous intent—the raw instinct belonging to the Golden Horned Beast!

"Babata."

Luo Feng, in the form of the Golden Horned Beast, spoke.

"How long has it been?"

"It has been sixteen days since you possessed the Golden Horned Beast," Babata replied hurriedly.

"That long?" Luo Feng was somewhat surprised.

The massive inherited memories of the Golden Horned Beast had been forcibly integrated into his soul, pushing it to its absolute limit. Under such pressure, even simple thoughts had left Luo Feng feeling exhausted.

"What an immense amount of knowledge; it truly lives up to its reputation as a rare Star-Devouring Beast of the universe," Luo Feng remarked with emotion.

"Have you accepted the entirety of the inherited memories?"

Babata appeared very excited.

"This is truly exaggerated... hurry, let's see what knowledge and secret techniques are in there."

"Mm." Luo Feng nodded and began to examine the inherited memories of the Golden Horned Beast.

Although he had possessed the Golden Horned Beast, his soul remained that of a human. Even with the integration of those memories, it did not mean he had mastered them completely; in this regard, he was somewhat similar to Su Zhe.

After Su Zhe devoured a target, he would not choose to acquire all of their memories, but rather filter out the important parts.

Otherwise, the sheer volume of memories alone would be enough to cause Su Zhe's soul to fall into a coma.

It was manageable at this stage, but if he were to devour a World Lord or even an Immortal in the future, the sheer scale of those memories... he feared it would be difficult to even find the truly useful information.

After reviewing the inherited memories of the Golden Horned Beast, Luo Feng fell into silence.

"Do I have to learn all this knowledge one by one myself?"

Luo Feng complained.

"That is normal," Babata said. "Otherwise, wouldn't every Golden Horned Beast be invincible, mastering powerful secret techniques the moment they were born?"

"Fair enough."

Luo Feng shook his head.

"Let's put that aside for now. During the time I was accepting the memories, did anything happen on Earth?" Luo Feng asked.

He had been missing for so many days and had possessed the Golden Horned Beast; he didn't know how to explain it to Xu Xin, nor how to appear before humanity again.

"On Earth... yes!"

Babata jolted, speaking anxiously.

"Luo Feng, look at this!"

Babata projected a hologram. The content of the projection looked somewhat familiar; it was over a vast expanse of ocean.

"This is... the Pacific? Is this a live broadcast?"

Luo Feng was slightly stunned, and before he could ask anything else, he was quickly drawn into the scene on the broadcast.

In the frame, a young man with black hair appeared.

The young man stood in mid-air, treading upon the void. He was clearly a Planetary Level powerhouse, yet Luo Feng had never seen this young man before. Who was such a young Planetary Level fighter?

Before Luo Feng could ask, the young man in the frame moved.

"ROAR!!!"

No, to be precise, it wasn't he who moved, but the waves below!

As a dragon's roar tore through the heavens and earth, a violent domain of lightning instantly enveloped the sea.

A thousand-meter-long divine dragon, its entire body flickering with lightning, surged upward against the current from beneath the waves!

The Thunder Dragon Emperor?!

Luo Feng was shocked. That was one of the two great Beast Emperors that had once dominated Earth. The Thunder Dragon Emperor was comparable in strength to the Octopus Beast Emperor, but the Thunder Dragon Emperor was more adept at offense, renowned for its speed, lightning, and power. As for the Octopus Beast Emperor, it focused more on defense.

Before possessing the Golden Horned Beast, Luo Feng had already killed the Octopus Beast Emperor, so he knew the strength of these two Beast Emperors very well.

In the ocean, the Planetary Level 6 Thunder Dragon Emperor possessed strength sufficient to crush human martial artists of the same level!

Relying on the unique advantage of the ocean, even Hong, who had mastered a domain and was considered invincible at the Planetary Level, had been forced to reach a peace agreement with the two great Beast Emperors.

Could this young man he had never met succeed?

Deep in the Pacific Ocean, dark clouds churned like ink.

Under the lens of a global broadcast, Su Zhe stood in mid-air, his right hand gripping a battle blade—one he had mimicked using the Blacklight Virus and slightly disguised.

No weapon produced on Earth was capable of piercing the defenses of the Thunder Dragon Emperor.

Su Zhe had Atkin search for those ancient civilization ruins to see if any Force weapons could be found, but the vast majority of the good items on Earth were in the hands of Hong.

Even with Hong in a coma, the possessions of the Extreme Martial Arts Hall were not so easily taken.

Because this was a global live broadcast, Su Zhe still disguised himself slightly, intending to wait until he truly couldn't win before revealing his full strength.

"ROAR--!!!"

The seawater below boiled violently as a hideous dragon head, wreathed in destructive blue electric arcs, broke through the surface!

Under Su Zhe's constant provocation, the Thunder Dragon Emperor could finally hold back no longer and surged out of the sea!

"BOOM!!"

Su Zhe spread his arms, and the viscous, ink-like Nihility Devouring Flame coated the blade on his right arm, transforming into a Blade of Fire that slashed toward the top of the Thunder Dragon Emperor's head.

Black flames and lightning collided in mid-air, blooming into brilliant sparks.

The terrifying energy turbulence blasted a temporary vacuum crater into the sea, and the vaporized seawater turned into white mist that permeated the sky.

The satellites overhead faithfully recorded this scene, broadcasting it to the citizens of every nation.

"CRACK!"

The Thunder Dragon Emperor whipped its massive tail, tearing through the layers of white mist; the air was whipped into a sonic boom, and Su Zhe's gaze sharpened as he retreated rapidly.

The same lightning covered Su Zhe's legs.

The Concept of Thunder gained from devouring Yan Hai made Su Zhe incredibly familiar with the power of lightning.

If he could devour this Thunder Dragon Emperor, Su Zhe's Concept of Thunder could advance even further!

Su Zhe thought to himself; after these few days of devouring and constantly hunting the King-level monsters on land, those King-level monsters in the wilderness had been almost completely wiped out by him, leaving only those hiding deep underground or in the deep sea.

Even so.

After such massive consumption, Su Zhe had only barely managed to reach the fourth stage of the Planetary Level.

The quality of the monsters on Earth was simply too low.

As for those precious resources, Su Zhe found them difficult to obtain; for instance, Wood Bud Crystals. Although Atkin had helped Su Zhe secure all the Wood Bud Crystals that the HR Alliance had previously harvested from Mist Island, there were only a few of them.

Those major families certainly had private stashes, but there was nothing to be done about that.

"ROAR!"

Seeing Su Zhe forced back, the Thunder Dragon Emperor felt a surge of joy and seized the opportunity to charge toward Su Zhe's position, wanting to finish off this annoying human.

However, a massive amount of flames and thunder erupted from Su Zhe's body.

Fire and thunder intertwined!

An ordinary Planetary Level fighter at this stage could only master one special ability, but Su Zhe was clearly not ordinary.

In addition to fire, Su Zhe had also mastered lightning, and from this, he had developed something new.

"Flame Thunder Burst!"

Using the Nihility Devouring Flame as a base, he infused a massive amount of thunder and gathered it onto his right arm.

White mist swirled around the battlefield.

Su Zhe's right hand turned into a claw and pierced into the Thunder Dragon Emperor's body; that violent energy, accompanied by the Blacklight Virus, burrowed into the Thunder Dragon Emperor's body and exploded instantly!
