Chapter 99: Destruction Before Rebirth
Terrifying waves of energy surged forth, suppressed by the might of hundreds of Dao Intents radiating from the Golden Core.
Lan Yu’s scalp tingled—and not just his scalp, even his heart went numb.
One could say Elder Fuzhen’s self-detonation was sowhat reasonable, but Li Tianwei clearly had him covering the rear; even if he died, Lan Yu would have taken the blow for him. Yet under such circumstances, Li Tianwei still chose to self-destruct.
Self-detonation, fine but could he at least make it sowhat reasonable? Lan Yu felt that before Elder Fuzhen could even blast him to death, he would first be killed by Li Tianwei’s Golden Core explosion.
Lan Yu truly felt numb now. He recalled his past interactions with Li Tianwei—there seed to be no grudge between them.
“Junior Nephew, why must you do this!”
Facing the simultaneous self-detonation of the two, Lan Yu tried calling out emotionally, hoping to awaken Li Tianwei—to tell him not to act so recklessly, that there was still a way to defend themselves. If he self-detonated, it would an there would be no future for him.
“As expected of a Great Devil, showing no regard for the bond of comrades.”
To Elder Fuzhen, Li Tianwei’s actions indeed fit the image he had of him.
A body filled with demonic energy, wielding the Evil Soul Banner refined from demonic cultivators, and even turning two Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators into main souls—no matter how one looked at it, he was a complete and utter devil.
And now he was even resorting to detonating his Golden Core.
“Keep pretending. Don’t think I don’t know you’re the sa as —a Spirit Transformation cultivator.”
Elder Fuzhen mocked coldly in his heart.
As for whether Li Tianwei’s Golden Core detonation could harm him Elder Fuzhen found the idea utterly laughable. How could a re Golden Core explosion compare to the chaos of the Laws?
This alone showed that Elder Fuzhen was not as perceptive as Lan Yu. Perhaps, after the recent series of chaotic events, he no longer had the mind to think too deeply.
anwhile, as for whether his Golden Core explosion would harm Lan Yu, Li Tianwei was absolutely confident.
How could he not have considered the possibility of harming others? If he wasn’t completely certain, Li Tianwei would never have done this. Since he had done it, it ant he had full confidence to withstand all risks. After all, he was a person of supre virtue—how could he ever do evil?
“So—co! Explode for !”
Li Tianwei clasped his hands together. The fusion reaction within the Golden Core erupted instantly, empowered by the blessing of a hundred Dao Intents.
“You’re really doing it?!”
Lan Yu was utterly dumbfounded as he stared at the terrifying Golden Core before him, feeling the pure, condensed force within it.
He could fully imagine the devastation its detonation would cause the heavens collapsing, the earth shattering as if countless Golden Cores were exploding in unison.
The chain reaction of infinite Golden Cores detonating rged into a terrifying force of mass. It wasn’t just enough to kill Spirit Transformation cultivators it might even threaten higher existences.
Had Lan Yu possessed modern knowledge, he might have had a fitting term for this situation: the beauty of numbers.
A pure stellar explosion—a fusion detonation of billions, hundreds of billions, trillions of degrees and energy units—countless, overwhelming numbers interlaced into one ultimate manifestation.
In mathematics, even two interconnected circles could illustrate this idea. Though Li Tianwei’s explosion hadn’t yet reached that level, it was still unimaginably terrifying.
Boom.
A dazzling brilliance burst forth; searing heat spread. In an instant, pure energy exploded to the utmost limit, erupting from within the Golden Core.
A single point of light pierced through heaven and earth.
At that mont, it was as though a great sun had appeared before them, annihilating all matter in existence. The power of fusion revealed its terrifying might.
Even cultivators who commanded the Laws of the world could not resist such destruction; none had reached the realm where they could reverse ti or shake causality itself.
The world fell silent in an instant. Despair and terror filled Lan Yu’s eyes.
As for Elder Fuzhen needless to say the turmoil of the Laws, the extraction of all vitality from heaven and earth, had no chance to manifest at all.
For the world around them had already been blasted to its limit even the Laws could not stir.
Next ca the devastating blast of the energy core silence filled the world, all turned pure white, all matter cleansed as if washed of every impurity.
“No—!”
Elder Fuzhen’s face froze in an expression of desperate agony, his mouth open in a voiceless scream.
Ti resud once more. His entire body dissolved, along with the Heaven-Repelling Mirror in his hand, which shattered apart.
Under the eruption, a streak of light split across the sky as though two suns hung above starlight scattering across the heavens.
The world fell quiet and void.
Fortunately, this was within the Forbidden Land of Taixu, where few living beings existed.
The nearest human settlent rely felt the ground shake lightly, as though the earth dragon had rolled over—and the sky had brightened for a mont.
The energy released was imnse but it also vanished swiftly.
Lan Yu was dazed. Watching the Golden Core detonate and the energy strike him, he waited calmly for death to arrive.
Suddenly, sothing felt off. He touched his body—his face.
“?? Why am I fine? I don’t feel anything.”
He looked himself up and down. His body was completely intact, not a single trace of damage upon him.
It was as though he stood in another layer of the world, rely observing the terrifying detonation of the Golden Core.
“What is going on?”
“I’m unhard… Did Li Tianwei do sothing?”
“The Golden Core exploded—he shouldn’t be fine, right?”
In an instant, Lan Yu’s mind shifted from flashing through mories of his life to worrying about Li Tianwei.
At this mont, Li Tianwei was breathing heavily, his face pale, yet his eyes still shone with brilliance.
“Seems I managed to suppress it.”
After erasing the self-destructive attacker through the Golden Core explosion, Li Tianwei exhaled deeply.
“As expected, the Scripture of Supre Virtue and Radiant Purity I modified truly possesses imnse power. Look at how strong my virtue is anyone harboring goodwill toward won’t be hard by my attacks.”
His gaze then fell upon Lan Yu. Confirming that the latter was unhard, Li Tianwei couldn’t help but marvel at his own extraordinary talent and ability.
“But about this Golden Core…”
He focused his consciousness within. The Golden Core was covered in cracks; through them, one could glimpse a faint crimson hue—an aura of annihilation, as though it were collapsing inward.
Within the faint distortions of flesh-like patterns, sothing akin to a baby’s arm—or an eye brimming with destruction—seed to erge.
It wasn’t as disastrous as he had expected. In fact, the situation seed rather promising.
“Destruction before rebirth. I really am the protagonist.”
Seeing the strange transformation on his fractured Golden Core, Li Tianwei imdiately understood. It seed that detonating the Golden Core hadn’t been a disaster after all it had led to new life.
“This must be my Nascent Soul!”
“The Core split early into a half-ford infant—probably because I detonated it myself. In other words, I’ve grown stronger.”
Having reached this conclusion, Li Tianwei withdrew his Golden Core completely.
This was a new discovery indeed a half-shattered Core revealing half an infant form.
Truly, the privilege of a protagonist reborn through destruction.
Li Tianwei rummaged through all the novels and data he could recall, ultimately confirming his conclusion.
