Chapter 1163

Because instability means it could explode at any moment.

A spear-shaped Open Heaven Thunder pierced the void, roaring as it slammed toward the Chaos Pearl.

At the very moment heaven's wrath ignited, Luo Fu had already sensed the danger.

Luo Fu was not surprised by this.

The method he just used could only be employed once.

Once he revealed that the Chaos Pearl could assimilate Open Heaven Thunder, Ancestor Hongjun would never foolishly continue sending him more Open Heaven Thunder.

Moreover, this act would surely enrage Ancestor Hongjun.

His mocking tone just now was like pouring oil on fire, further igniting Ancestor Hongjun's fury.

Therefore, Luo Fu had long anticipated that Ancestor Hongjun would strike in rage.

Under these circumstances, Ancestor Hongjun still chose to fire a spear-shaped Open Heaven Thunder from the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.

It was plainly meant to tell Luo Fu that this spear-shaped Open Heaven Thunder was dangerous—if Luo Fu again chose to draw it into the Chaos Pearl, the consequences would be dire.

Without even thinking, Luo Fu could guess that if he drew this spear-shaped Open Heaven Thunder into the Chaos Pearl, before he could assimilate it, the thunder would detonate directly, inflicting catastrophic damage upon the Chaos Pearl.

Since he had already guessed this, Luo Fu could not possibly choose to absorb it directly.

Hum!

The Chaos Pearl trembled slightly.

Shh!

The next instant, the shattered chaos-colored barrier restored itself completely, all gaps sealed in an instant.

The entire chaos-colored barrier became perfectly smooth again, showing not a trace of damage.

In fact, repairing the chaos-colored barrier was not a difficult task for the Chaos Pearl.

As long as the Chaos Pearl willed it, it could restore the barrier in an instant.

For the spear-shaped Open Heaven Thunder to completely shatter the chaos-colored barrier was no simple matter.

The reason it had not been repaired was precisely to trap Ancestor Hongjun.

Since the trap had failed, there was no need to continue the pretense.

Zzzzz~~~

Moreover, as it repaired the chaos-colored barrier, the Chaos Pearl also enveloped its surface in a layer of lightning.

This layer of lightning was also Open Heaven Thunder.

As for its source, it must have come from the Open Heaven Thunder already assimilated.

The spear-shaped Open Heaven Thunder shot forward at its usual speed; the moment the chaos-colored barrier was restored, the thunder arrived before it.

Boom!

The lightning interwove, and the already unstable spear-shaped Open Heaven Thunder, stimulated by the surrounding lightning of the chaos-colored barrier, exploded like a bomb.

Crack!

The freshly repaired chaos-colored barrier shattered violently under the impact of the explosion's destructive force.

Not just a part—but the entire chaos-colored barrier, like a single pane of glass, shattered completely.

The destructive force from the explosion continued to rage toward Luo Fu.

Wherever it passed, all Dao principles collapsed in an instant.

Centered on Luo Fu, a radius of hundreds of thousands of li turned to nothingness in an instant—all Dao vanished, leaving only lightning and destructive force raging.

Shh!

Seeing the destructive force about to reach him, Luo Fu swiftly used his will to control the Chaos Pearl; three thousand Dao principles emerged, threads of Dao resonance swirling around him.

Luo Fu, at the explosion's core, became the only light in endless darkness.

The raging destructive force surged toward him, determined to extinguish this lone light.

But before the destructive force could reach Luo Fu, an invisible force absorbed it.

This invisible force clearly came from the Chaos Pearl.

The Dao resonance swirling around him could not only protect Luo Fu but also absorb the surrounding destructive force.

Though the raging destructive force and lightning remained powerful, they were merely the aftermath—the direct explosion of the spear-shaped Open Heaven Thunder might overwhelm the Chaos Pearl, but this mere aftermath posed no challenge for the Chaos Pearl to absorb.

Seeing this, Ancestor Hongjun's anger intensified.

With Ancestor Hongjun's fury, a terrifying suppressive force descended upon Luo Fu.
