Fengshen: I, Nezha, don’t need a system

"Why is that guy here?"

Li Ziting's voice was extremely low, carrying a hint of anger at being interrupted during his refining process.

Before he finished speaking, his body, which was sitting cross-legged, suddenly trembled.

—The pale golden refining patterns that originally surrounded him, used to nurture the essence of thunder...

At this moment, it shattered like a spider web struck by a boulder, scattering into countless tiny specks of light.

He slowly opened his eyes.

Those eyes, which were as calm as a deep pool, suddenly surged with turbulent waves.

Deep within his pupils, billions of jets of pitch-black lightning instantly awakened, like a world-destroying thunder dragon that had been dormant for billions of years breaking free of its shackles.

Following the gaps in your eyelashes, the contours of your brow bone, and even every pore on your body...

It burst forth in an instant.

As soon as the black lightning left his body, it intertwined and coiled in front of him, instantly condensing into a jet-black lightning pillar with a diameter of about ten feet.

Fine, silvery-purple arcs of electricity pulsed across the surface of the lightning bolt.

Each jump tore through the air, emitting a sharp "sizzling" sound, as if even space itself was about to be crushed by this force.

“Rumble——!!!”

The deafening thunder resounded throughout the universe, far surpassing any ordinary thunder in the mortal world.

It crashed violently into the devouring power of the alien overlord.

The moment the two black energies collided, a terrifying shockwave spread outwards in a ring from the point of impact in all directions.

The sky seemed to be gripped tightly by an invisible hand, and the originally clear sky was instantly dyed as dark as ink.

Even the last glimmer of light on the horizon was completely swallowed up, and half the sky was shrouded in darkness by this destructive energy.

At this moment, the clouds collapsed, leaving only a suffocating silence between heaven and earth.

A faint gray mist flowed from the hem of the alien ruler's robes; it was the origin of chaos.

Upon seeing this, he merely frowned.

—The moment his brows furrowed slightly, the chaotic mist around him rippled slightly.

It was as if even the air itself had frozen.

The next second, he raised his right hand seemingly casually.

A wisp of extremely faint gray air swirled around his fingertips as he gently waved them.

There were no earth-shattering phenomena, nor any magnificent or boundless momentum.

The movement was as light as brushing away a speck of dust from a sleeve.

But with that one swing, the black lightning that had been churning and swirling in mid-air, almost tearing space apart, was now filled with devouring energy...

It was as if it had encountered its nemesis, and instantly lost its ferocious momentum.

The black lightning pillar disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The power of devouring then reintegrates into it, eventually returning as a stream of black energy.

The whole process was over in an instant, as if the earth-shattering impact just now was merely an illusion.

The alien ruler lowered his gaze and swept it across the empty ground below.

—That was where Li Ziting used to sit cross-legged, but now only a faint scorch mark remains, and he has long since disappeared.

A disdainful sneer curled at the corner of his lips, his voice cold and deep.

A whisper from the depths of chaos, each word carrying an overwhelming majesty: "Don't think you can escape anywhere in this space."

As soon as he finished speaking, the void behind him suddenly distorted.

The surface of the Chaos Sea is as black as ink, and with each surging wave, a terrifying power that assimilates all things and obliterates the laws of nature is contained within it.

The chaotic sea spread rapidly throughout the entire space at a speed visible to the naked eye, causing the ground to crack and mountains to melt away wherever it passed.

Even the energy floating in the air was completely swallowed up.

Even more astonishingly, the laws of gravity, space, and even the most fundamental law of time that originally existed in the space melted away as quickly as ice and snow meeting the scorching sun.

—The law of gravity transformed into invisible pressure and was swallowed up by the chaotic sea.

The laws of space twisted into tiny cracks, merging into the chaotic waves.

The laws of time transformed into strands of transparent silk, which were completely assimilated by the chaotic sea.

In just a few breaths, the entire space was enveloped by the chaotic sea, leaving only a monotonous expanse of black and gray in the world.

All the other laws were completely devoured.

All laws became nourishment for the chaotic sea to grow stronger.

The alien ruler slowly closed his eyes, and a rhombus-shaped chaotic mark between his brows suddenly lit up, emitting a faint gray halo.

His soul was like a boundless net, slowly unfolding from the mark between his eyebrows, and wherever it passed, the waves of the chaotic sea submitted to it.

The power of the divine soul easily penetrated the chaotic sea, as if taking something out of a bag, and completely encompassed the entire space shrouded by the chaotic sea.

In his perception, every speck of dust, every energy fluctuation, and even every lingering trace of aura in the space was completely visible.

"Ok?"

A moment later, the alien ruler suddenly opened his eyes.

A barely perceptible look of surprise, even disbelief, flashed in his eyes.

His spiritual power was like a net, searching every corner of the space.

From the depths of the chaotic sea to the cracks at the edge of space, not even a speck of dust was spared, yet Li Ziting's whereabouts remained elusive.

What shocked him even more was that he could clearly sense that Li Ziting's aura had not left this space; on the contrary, it seemed...

It merged into his soul?

Like a drop of water merging into the ocean, it is clearly there, yet impossible to capture.

It seemed to have merged with his divine soul power, completely concealing its own traces.

His gaze slowly swept across the arena. At this moment, apart from the human boy (Jianmu Zhenren) who was as insignificant as an ant and whose aura was so weak that it could be almost ignored, there was only the Goddess Nuwa standing quietly not far away.

The goddess Nuwa was surrounded by a soft radiant glow of creation, within which the faint silhouettes of countless living beings could be seen.

She remained calm, showing neither the intention to attack nor the slightest sign of panic.

It was as if the chaotic sea and the sovereign before her could not affect her in the slightest.

The alien ruler narrowed his eyes slightly, his six vertical pupils, flashing with scarlet light, staring intently at the Goddess Nuwa.

A moment later, his gaze slowly moved upwards.

Then it landed on the ancient scroll that was floating above Nuwa's head.

"Ran?"

Not far away, the Six-Eyed Demon God's voice was filled with astonishment, even somewhat out of control.

His enormous body was coiled at the edge of the Chaos Sea, his six thick arms clenched tightly, and the black scales on his body trembled slightly with excitement.

His six eyes were filled with disbelief.

—Just now, he was clearly watching Li Ziting's movements closely, without even blinking.

But to their surprise, right under their noses and those of their lord, that human boy who relied on thunder to wreak havoc vanished into thin air!

"You're really stupid."

A weak female voice broke the silence in the room.

Long Liyi clutched her chest and staggered to her feet from Liu Yan's palm.

—She had been affected by the energy storm earlier, and her face was as pale as paper.

A shocking trace of blood clung to the corner of his mouth, and he needed the support of a stone pillar behind him to stand. His breath was as faint as a candle flickering in the wind.

The alien ruler glanced at her, his gaze not lingering, and casually waved his hand again.

This time, the gray aura swirling around his fingertips was several times more concentrated.

Like a tiny, chaotic river, following the trajectory of his wave...

It instantly surged into Ryūriki's body.

The moment the power of chaos entered her body, Long Liyi shuddered, and her pale face instantly flushed red.

The wound on her chest healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Beneath the tattered robes, new skin slowly grew.

In just a few breaths, her injuries were completely healed, and her aura was even stronger than before.

—The originally faint aura surged, and a faint black mist rose around him.

His eyes sharpened, and his previous weakness was gone.

"You useless bastard, shut up!"

The Six-Eyed Demon God was already annoyed by Li Ziting's escape, and upon hearing Long Liyi's mockery, he was instantly enraged.

His massive head suddenly turned towards Long Liyi, his six eyes flashing with a ferocious light.

Black demonic energy surged wildly from beneath its scales, almost turning the surrounding chaotic sea black.

"What qualifications do you have to say that to me!"

Ryūriki, however, showed no fear. Instead, she sneered and straightened her body.

The next moment, he retorted without hesitation: "Qualifications? It's clearly your own incompetence that's the problem!"

"After spending so much time, we still haven't been able to obtain the power of the new world."

"If I had your cultivation and supernatural abilities, I would have seized and refined the power of that new world long ago. Why would I be like you?"

"A piece of trash with immense strength, yet unable to even catch an ant!"

"you!"

The six-eyed demon was rendered speechless by the rebuttal, and its enormous claws clenched tightly.

The demonic energy around him surged even more violently, clearly enraged by Long Liyi's words, and he wished he could rush up and tear her to pieces immediately.

"enough."

Just then, the alien ruler's cold voice rang out.

Like ice water in the dead of winter, it instantly extinguished the Six-Eyed Demon God's rage.

He didn't turn around, still staring at the scroll above Nuwa's head.

However, his tone carried an undeniable air of authority, each word like a heavy hammer blow to the heart of the Six-Eyed Demon God.

"This time, Six Eyes, you really did take too much time."

The six-eyed demon shuddered, and his furious emotions instantly subsided.

"My lord, your subordinate..."

"You won't admit you're stupid." Long Liyi arrogantly hovered beside the alien ruler, then pointed at the scroll above Nuwa's head and said, "That thunderous guy, isn't Li Ziting in the painting?"
