Piccolo Lies Dormant, Sack's Divine Spark Emerges

If it had been before, once he received the news and learned that Pilaf and the other two had failed again, Demon King Piccolo would not have hesitated in the slightest. He would have immediately moved to twist off their heads.

But after enduring Dabo's terrifying pressure, he did not even dare breathe loudly.

That strike just now had already left him trembling with fear, and now he had no interest in killing the three of them.

One year happened to align perfectly with his plan to lie low.

For now, hiding, clinging to life, and playing it safe was the better choice.

Just right!

Back to Sack's side.

The spark of awareness knew nothing; his body suddenly appeared in the Solar Photosphere.

Popo did not truly dare to put Sack to death.

Dabo could not be dealt with, and killing Sack would bring Earth no benefit whatsoever.

Unless he personally took action.

But if he could act, he would not have needed to borrow the power of Shenron.

That was why he had sent Sack to the relatively stable Solar Photosphere.

The Sun's temperature distribution gradually decreased from the core outward until the photosphere, maintaining that trend all the way to the photosphere.

The photosphere was five hundred kilometers thick. Starting from the Chromosphere outside it, the temperature began rising gradually again.

So the Sun's temperature was actually lowest in the photosphere.

The nuclear reaction zone at the core reached temperatures as high as fifteen million degrees, and the pressure there was three hundred billion times that of Earth.

If Sack entered the core region, there was no possibility of survival.

Located in the photosphere, Sack's chances of surviving were undoubtedly much greater.

As for how he would escape from inside the Sun, that had nothing to do with Popo.

It was also worth mentioning that almost all of the Sun's visible light was emitted from this layer. If Sack made good use of it, even awakening another two hundred thousand Giant Elephant Particles would be possible.

The instant he entered, Sack stopped suppressing the Other Dimension, and a violent aura surged out.

Sack's body instantly gigantified, turning into a gorilla.

"Roar!"

He was furious, stomping madly, but before he could even steady himself, his body began to collapse.

Two hundred thousand Giant Elephant Particles only amounted to a combat power of six million.

The tenfold boost from Great Ape transformation was only sixty million combat power.

Even in the photosphere, that was still rather strained. His fur charred, and before the damage could even spread, it vanished again in the blazing plasma.

His fleshly body began to crack. His body could not hold together, bursting apart with bang after bang. Skin, flesh, blood, and bone all began to melt away.

It did not give Sack's body even the slightest time to adjust. It simply began disintegrating.

Even the tyrannical aura of the Other Dimension could not survive, rapidly evaporating under the photosphere's high temperature.

Without a body, those auras were like rootless duckweed, quickly vanishing from within Sack.

The Other Dimension sensed the change in the external environment. The energy it transmitted gradually decreased, the fluctuations within began weakening, and the three Seal Talismans faintly showed signs of sealing again. Specks of crystalline matter appeared in the fourth Seal Talisman's qi-liquid.

With his body in trouble, the God Elephant Prison-Suppressing Force instinctively kept revolving, but it still could not stop the decline.

Sack had condensed too much qi into runes, causing him to possess power in name only, yet be completely unable to unleash it.

It was like a child swinging a sledgehammer.

As the Other Dimension energy controlling his body receded, Sack's spark of awareness was muddled, and in an instant he sensed that he seemed to be inside a boundless, blazing Hell.

He was beyond excited.

"Yes. I can absolutely rely on the Sun's harsh environment to regain control of my body."

"But what should I do? The God Elephant Prison-Suppressing Force can't unleash its true strength at all, and condensing the fourth Seal Talisman is an urgent matter that cannot afford failure."

Even now, Sack still wanted to swallow the Sun like a heavenly dog eclipsing it, to devour an elephant like a snake—taking advantage of the Other Dimension's weakness to seal it in one stroke, then deal with it slowly afterward.

Sack's body was still continuously disintegrating, while the domineering flame power of the Solar True Fire kept refining him.

Whether it was his mental will, or the more outward body and the Other Dimension within him, even his qi hissed and crackled, constantly evaporating.

But no matter how fierce the true fire was, the giant elephants remained completely unmoved, exuding a majesty that said: let the outside flames churn as they pleased; I stand towering and still.

Sack's spark of awareness flickered, and something suddenly came to mind.

"Damn it, the Heaven and Earth Furnace can devour the energy of all worlds, and more than two thousand stars already had openings torn into them by my Seal Talisman for diversion.

"These flames can only burn the surface. I can completely use the Heaven and Earth Furnace to devour energy, activate the giant elephants, and continuously reconstruct my flesh, blood, bones, skin, and hair, making me whole.

"Even the aura of the Other Dimension can only become nourishment for my growth.

"I can swallow it all."

His spark of awareness firmed, forcefully taking residence in his own ruined, festering body.

"This is the first time, and it can only be the only time. From now on, my body can only be ruled by me, Sack."

Sack roared ferociously.

"Heaven and Earth Furnace, get the hell out here! Devour, melt, release! I'm going to refine everything and treat the sun as nothing!"

Under Sack's roar, the Heaven and Earth Furnace condensed into existence once more.

At first, it was only the size of a thumb.

With one swallow and exhale, it grew by a tenth.

The Heaven and Earth Furnace was powerful in essence, but its actual strength still depended on Sack's strength.

Its efficiency in devouring the sun was honestly touching.

With every breath it swallowed, the Heaven and Earth Furnace grew a little stronger.

Its devouring force grew by ten percent, and the overall energy the giant elephants obtained became even stronger.

As the giant elephants grew stronger, they fed back into the furnace. Under this positive cycle, the rate at which Sack's collapsing body perished weakened by a fraction.

Sack was overjoyed.

He knew his idea was right.

As a sovereign-level cultivation art, the God Elephant Prison-Suppressing Force meant that even if he had not obtained the Mark of the Gods, the awakened giant elephants were not things that objects of the mortal realm could harm.

After some time, once the furnace and the giant elephants worked together, cleansed the impact of the Other Dimension's aura, and fused into one, his strength could eruptively increase.

"Awaken, power of the giant elephants. I inherit your spirit and strength. I am invincible in the universe."

Sack screamed wildly in his heart. Inside him, the giant elephants raised their long trunks high and trumpeted in unison.

At this moment, the giant elephants ignored the Other Dimension, ignored the fourth Seal Talisman, and empowered Sack's body.

At this moment, Sack was like a giant elephant, a divine being of heaven and earth.

The Solar True Fire, the vitality of heaven and earth, and the aura of the Other Dimension were all crushed beneath the giant elephants and entered the Heaven and Earth Furnace, merging into one before being transmitted back to the giant elephants.

"Ang~"

Sack's entire body shuddered, and in an instant, his whole form scattered apart, leaving only the final trace of spiritual light.

Outside that spiritual light, eight hundred and forty million Giant Elephant Particles coiled around it. Most were dim and indistinct; only two hundred and ten thousand giant elephants shone with radiance.

In that brief instant, excluding the two hundred thousand spine-suppressing giant elephants, the power Sack could use once again reached three hundred thousand.

The spiritual light constantly changed shape, condensed, expanded, and contracted. Under the infusion of qi, it expanded again, then immediately contracted once more.

After nine times, Sack's spiritual light was almost condensed into a four-sided cone, and a trace of divinity spread out from within it.

A strange rune appeared out of thin air within Sack's spiritual light.

As the rune appeared, the giant elephants cried out joyfully.

Large amounts of qi sprayed from the mouths and noses of the giant elephants.

A drop of crimson blood tinged with faint gold abruptly appeared beneath Sack's spiritual light.

Hiss!

The omnipresent Solar True Fire tried to burn this unforgivably wicked substance that dared to provoke it.

The Heaven and Earth Furnace and the giant elephants seemed to have forgotten it, allowing its mighty power to act upon it.
