Chapter 1142: The Chaos Pearl

Sensing the disturbance in the Chaos Void, the Supreme Sage and others all turned their gazes toward the Chaos Void.

Through the world barrier, the Supreme Sage and others saw again the Ancestor Hongjun and the Eye of Heavenly Punishment, who had vanished beyond the Heavenly Skies, as well as Luo Fu facing them off.

The instant they saw Luo Fu, the Supreme Sage and others all had the thought: Of course.

Seeing the Eye of Heavenly Punishment once again condense the Primordial Opening Thunder, the Supreme Sage and others held their breath, wondering how Luo Fu would respond.

Previously, it was merely a projection; even if it perished, it would not harm Luo Fu.

Now, however, it was Luo Fu's true body, and the Supreme Sage and others believed Luo Fu would never again act so recklessly as before.

The Primordial Opening Thunder transformed into a bolt of lightning, striking toward Luo Fu with the speed of a flash.

Though the Primordial Opening Thunder now struck within the Chaos Void, where spatial strength far exceeded that of the Heavenly Skies, the void still split open along its path, leaving behind jagged fissures.

The swirling Chaos currents around them were vaporized in an instant.

Feeling the destructive thunder rushing toward him, Luo Fu's face showed not the slightest panic.

A mere half-stroke of Primordial Opening Thunder was far from enough to deal with him.

Hum!

Under his mental control, the Chaos Pearl appeared above Luo Fu's head; a shield of Chaos color, summoned by his will, enveloped him completely.

Boom—!

The Primordial Opening Thunder, radiating terrifying power, slammed onto the Chaos-colored shield.

In the moment of impact, it seemed a vast world was born within the Primordial Opening Thunder, then immediately destroyed.

The destruction of that vast world directly gave rise to terrifying destructive force, which, merged with the thunder, struck the Chaos-colored shield with overwhelming force.

Hum! Hum! Hum!

Under the assault of the Primordial Opening Thunder, the Chaos-colored shield trembled continuously, yet not a single crack appeared.

Clearly, the Primordial Opening Thunder could not harm the Chaos-colored shield in the slightest.

The Eye of Heavenly Punishment's power was limited; it could only fire a half-stroke of Primordial Opening Thunder, still falling far short of the true Primordial Opening Thunder.

The Chaos Pearl was a genuine Chaos spiritual treasure, and though it leaned toward support, its defensive capability was no less formidable.

The only flaw of the Chaos Pearl might be that it was not a weapon-type spiritual treasure, offering limited aid to the path of destruction.

Yet, for Luo Fu, this flaw meant nothing.

Luo Fu rarely used spiritual treasures in battle; their enhancement effect on him was extremely limited.

Compared to his self-created Eternal Sword Array, they were worlds apart.

With the Eternal Sword Array as support, Luo Fu's destructive power was no weaker—indeed, far stronger—than that of peers at his level.

Compared to ordinary weapon-type spiritual treasures, the Chaos Pearl's role was even more vital.

As a world-type Chaos spiritual treasure, the Chaos Pearl could enhance all three thousand Dao paths to some degree, perfectly complementing Luo Fu's Eternal Sword Array.

Of course, the current Chaos Pearl offered Luo Fu only very limited enhancement.

Since last time he refined countless remnants of Chaos Divine Demons and received numerous inheritances, Luo Fu had elevated many Dao paths to the Heavenly Dao level.

Though the Chaos Pearl was a Chaos spiritual treasure, the three thousand Dao paths within it were all at the Hunyuan layer—useless for enhancing Luo Fu, who had already mastered all Dao paths to the Heavenly Dao level.

Luo Fu paid no mind to this.

Spiritual treasures were ultimately external tools; even a Chaos spiritual treasure was merely external. By comparison, one's own realm was far more important.

The Chaos Pearl could not enhance Luo Fu's strength because his realm was simply too high—not because the Chaos Pearl was weak.

In terms of defense alone, the Chaos Pearl was still exceedingly powerful.

A spherical spiritual treasure was naturally better suited for defense.

More importantly, the Chaos Pearl concealed within it an entire world.

With a world as its foundation, the Chaos Pearl's defensive power was naturally not weak.
