Xu Guang didn't hesitate at all, he turned and ran, wishing he had more legs.

Ah Wei directly controlled General Teng to fling out vines, entangling the two women and pulling them along.

The halo-encircled creature was like a madman, insanely charging at those barbarians to kill them.

The silhouette wrapped in the halo pointed a finger.

A sheet of flames leapt, the heat scorching, roasting the earth, the surrounding area charred, with many cracked land fissures.

No less than seven or eight barbarians, whose primordial Qi had just unfurled, were turned to ashes within the flames, as if they were utterly annihilated.

Forces that seemed to exist eternally were transforming.

The barbarians cried out with wretched screams, but the entity within the halo showed no mercy, taking a step forward as countless stone pillars shattered.

Suddenly, numerous bizarre phenomena arose within the Stone Forest, sounds like the cries of ghosts and howls of wolves emerged.

Immediately after, Xu Guang and others witnessed an unforgettable scene.

The Stone Forest continuously shifted, the stone pillars above seemed to move as if they were shape-shifting, a peculiar force was soaring, vaguely overturning the entire world.

The heavens and earth… ripped open!

A pair of eyes appeared, nearly as wide as the sky and earth, their gaze carrying no spirit, but exuding a sense of overlooking the world with cold indifference, like… a god!

Xu Guang grabbed a woman with one hand, riding on General Wei, as Ah Wei ran desperately, fortunately having been blessed with the baptism of Starlight last time, his own speed was not slow.

It plowed through obstacles, crashing down one stone pillar after another that came into its path by shifting positions.

Xu Guang looked back.

The silhouette in the halo, seeing the transformation of heaven and earth, immediately abandoned those barbarians barely clinging to life, like a warrior daring to swing a sword at the sky, leapt high up, gathering a hundred-meter-long Light Saber in hand, aiming to slash at the indifferent eyes above.

"Ancient God! I fear you not! Die!! Die!!"

Boom!

A streak of lightning flashed through those terrifying eyes and in an instant, the light figure was sent flying.

A series of crackling thunderous sounds shook, as if a giant above the sky was wielding a thunder whip.

Boom!

Boom!

A thunderstorm sprawling across the sky suddenly erupted, descending like a collapsing firmament, pressing down on the halo silhouette.

Yet the thunderstorm was vast like an ocean, almost covering everything visible to the naked eye, like a Celestial God casting down Heavenly Thunder to purify the world.

Xu Guang witnessed this scene, his soul terrified!

"Ah Wei, turn around, quick, turn around!"

Ah Wei, not being a fool, heard the command and used all its might, abruptly stopping and smashing seven or eight stone pillars.

Finally, having come to a halt, it gazed at the sky, determined the direction, and sprinted for dear life.

Eventually, as the ground completely turned blue, the thunderstorm visibly lessened.

Dong!!!

A resonating bell toll shook the heavens and earth, accompanied by power filled with peculiar Daoist essence exploding amid the skies.

The eye upon the firmament seemed agitated, the thunder more intense.

Yet ultimately, it did not unleash that world-ending thunderstorm again, as the black and crimson storm clouds above the sky slowly merged, and that eye disappeared!

Xu Guang looked towards where the halo silhouette appeared earlier, only to see it already flattened, nothing visible, the ground's Thunder Light flowing gently, occasionally bursting with a lightning bolt reaching over thirty zhang!

The Stone Forest was not just composed of two groups: them and the barbarians. Xu Guang saw with his own eyes a master with Qi Force already condensed to the Gold Attribute, standing atop a stone pillar, despairingly gazing at the Thunder Light below.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning startled from the Thunder Pool.

The man, along with the stone pillar he stood on, vanished altogether!

Xu Guang was dumbfounded.

What kind of thunder is this?

Can thunder have such a formidable effect?

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning shot out, its path directed right at the little hill where they stood.

At the speed of that lightning, they couldn't dodge at all.

Jiang Zi Yun instinctively hugged Little Mink, her face full of shock and despair.

Shen Muyu, in desperation, tinged with ferocity, was about to unleash the Sword Qi left in her body by Shen Chong.

But at the crucial moment.

Xu Guang, as if under divine guidance, took out the Bronze Fragment from the side of General Wei's body, holding it in front of him.

Crash!

A sense of numbness spread from his palm to his entire body.

But…

He was still conscious.

Proving he was still alive.

The fragment fell to the ground, Xu Guang's entire body charred black, opened his mouth and exhaled a puff of white smoke.

General Teng appeared, acting like a lackey, helping Xu Guang rid his body of the blackened air.

The two women were dumbstruck, they had witnessed the terror of that Divine Thunder with their own eyes, in a single moment, it had turned a suspected Fifth-Grade Zhenren into ashes.

Yet Xu Guang was merely charred black, seemingly without any signs of injury.

Instinctively, they looked at the Bronze Fragment.

Xu Guang's gaze also fell upon it, only to see that after being struck by the thunder, it strangely shrank several times in size, now merely the size of a washbasin, and the inscriptions on it appeared somewhat clearer.

Is this…

"Ancient Immortal Text?" Jiang Zi Yun's exclamation caught his attention.

Xu Guang looked at her, "Do you recognize it?"

Jiang Zi Yun shook her head, "I don't, it just feels like the legendary Ancient Immortal Text, it is said each word of these immortal texts can manifest a Divine Technique, I don't know if it's true."

Xu Guang found it somewhat incredible.

A single word as a Divine Technique? It seemed too fantastical, but recalling the halo-enveloped figure that had previously pursued the barbarians, and the eye that emerged when the firmament split open.

Perhaps for such a character, a single word truly was a Divine Technique.

I wonder… if I could transition into a profession like an archaeologist or a philologist specializing in ancient scripts.
