Chapter 59: The Inner World
Nourishes...
Cold, snow-like dots filled the public screens of all surviving base cities worldwide.
The one-minute signal interruption extinguished the hope that had just been ignited by that beam of light.
"Quickly! Connect to the backup satellite! Activate the emergency communication protocol!"
"No! The interference is too strong! The peak value of the powerful electromagnetic pulse exceeds the rated withstand limit of all our equipment! All channels are dead!"
Chaos reigned in the control center of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy. Wang Yi, the chief technical officer, had bloodshot eyes and issued orders in a hoarse voice, but no matter how hard the technicians frantically typed on the keyboards and switched backup lines, all they got in return was a futile buzzing sound.
"Is it over...?" A young technician stared blankly at the main screen filled with static, muttering to himself.
A hundred miles away, over the Pacific Ocean.
Luo Feng was the sole witness to this battle.
The aftershocks of the energy storm sent him and his escape shuttle flying hundreds of kilometers away. He forcibly used his mental power to stabilize himself, his chest heaving.
His eyes were fixed on the distant core of the battlefield, where even the light was distorted and the space was churning.
Within that energy core, he could faintly sense that Hong and Thor's auras were constantly weakening.
Luo Feng felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He wanted to rush in.
But his remaining rationality held him rooted to the spot. He knew that with his planetary-level strength, once he stepped into that energy field, his only fate would be to be instantly torn apart by the raging energy.
He can't do anything.
We can only wait.
……
And at the very center of that energy storm.
With their souls burning, Hong and Lei Shen unleashed their most powerful attack of their lives, tearing open a huge, deep, bone-revealing hole in the wound that was about to heal on the golden-horned behemoth!
The black gun intent and the purple blade light transformed into two destructive energies, raging within the bloody hole and preventing the wound from regrowth.
The golden-horned behemoth's body convulsed violently in excruciating pain.
Hong knelt on one knee on the back of the golden-horned behemoth, panting heavily, his arm holding the spear trembling slightly.
He stared at the enormous blood hole that was still gushing out scalding beast blood, a hint of madness flashing across his pale face.
He turned his head sharply and looked at Thor beside him.
Just then, Thor, his body charred black and his combat suit tattered, also looked at him.
Eyes facing each other.
Their unspoken understanding of sharing life and death allowed them to instantly read the resolute look in each other's eyes.
"Brother Hong! On the road to the underworld, I won't be alone with you!"
The next second, he and Hong transformed into two shooting stars, plunging headfirst into the wound dripping with dark golden blood!
Inside the Golden Horned Beast's body was like a sophisticated factory woven from countless thick, golden energy pipes and high-strength fibers. Its blood vessels were as wide as tunnels, and the flowing blood resembled scalding golden magma, radiating terrifying heat. The density of its muscle fibers was comparable to SS-grade alloy, and each contraction unleashed a force equivalent to tens of thousands of tons.
The instant Hong and Thor's figures disappeared, a consciousness separated from Hong and flew towards Luo Feng in the distance.
At the same time, the violent energy outside was completely unrestrained and exploded with a roar.
……
"roar--!!!"
The golden-horned behemoth let out a painful roar. It finally realized the danger—those two tiny insects had burrowed into its body!
It desperately activated its "Original World," causing its enormous body to shrink visibly once again! It intended to use its unparalleled density of flesh and blood to crush the intruder within its body to death. At the same time, the compressed and strengthened flesh and blood would also minimize the damage to its internal organs!
Hong and Thor, inside the Golden Horned Beast, instantly sensed this change. The surrounding walls of flesh and blood suddenly compressed inward, making movement extremely difficult.
"This beast wants to use us as dumpling filling!"
Thor cursed angrily.
However, even more deadly attacks followed.
The golden-horned behemoth went completely mad and began to launch self-destructive attacks without regard for the cost!
Golden beams of light, condensed from its own primal energy, pierced through its flesh and blood like sharp swords, shooting towards the location of Hong and Thor.
In an instant, golden light rained down throughout the entire flesh and blood space.
The two not only had to contend with the terrifying squeezing force, but also had to awkwardly dodge the golden primal energy within this narrow space.
"puff!"
Thor was unable to dodge in time, and his left arm was pierced by a golden beam of light, which instantly went through it.
The excruciating pain made him groan, but he had no time to look around, he just followed closely behind Hong.
Hong's face grew increasingly pale. The power from burning his soul was waning, and he knew very well that if this continued, they would soon be worn down and die here.
We must find its pronucleus!
Hong unleashed his sixth layer of light domain with all his might, trying to capture that life force within the chaotic flow of golden energy.
That aura is hidden deep within the layers of flesh and blood labyrinth!
"Second brother, come with me!"
With a shout, Hong stopped entangled with the tough muscle fibers and forced his way through the deadly golden beams and the constantly squeezing gaps in the flesh.
"good!"
Thor followed closely behind, abandoning all dodging and using all his remaining power for a burst of energy.
He transformed into a raging purple lightning bolt, like an indestructible drill, forcefully carving a path filled with blood and flesh fragments for Hong.
Each impact made his blood boil, but he didn't care.
They forcibly tore through layer after layer of fascia and chiseled through bone plates until, finally, inside a huge cavity resembling an atrium, they saw their ultimate goal.
It was a huge sphere of light floating in the very center of the cavity.
The sphere of light was completely transparent, radiating golden light, and its surface was covered with secret patterns. Streams of life energy were continuously emanating from the sphere of light, nourishing the flesh and blood of the Golden Horned Beast.
Thor stared at the enormous golden sphere of light, momentarily lost in thought.
"My God...this...this beast, is it cultivating immortality? Is this its golden core?"
"No!" Hong's eyes were more solemn than ever before. He stared at the ball of light and said, word by word, "This is not the Golden Core! This is its original core, its vital point!"
Hong looked down at his hands, then turned to look at Thor.
Red blood slowly seeped from his and Thor's skin, a sign that their bodies were beginning to break down.
"Second brother! Don't just stand there, destroy that golden ball with all your might!"
Hong's face darkened, and his energy surged once more.
Upon hearing this, Thor roared and poured all his primal energy into his battle blade.
"Nine-Layer Thunder Blade, Ninth Layer!"
A massive blade of light, crackling with dark purple lightning, slashed down fiercely at the transparent sphere of light beneath their feet!
boom--!
The golden-horned behemoth's entire body trembled.
At the same time, in the sky above the Pacific Ocean, the golden light that the golden-horned behemoth had been piercing into its body suddenly stopped.
next second.
A mournful cry, filled with panic and fear, echoed across the entire sea.
