With a thought, Li Chong once again returned to the white, boundless space.
"You're awake?"
The purple-robed child floating in mid-air nodded with a hint of joy.
Li Chonglou instantly understood its meaning.
Its true form had emerged; the Divine Thunder Source had been born!
The purple child suddenly wore a pleading expression.
"You want me to fight for your true form?"
Li Chonglou's brow furrowed.
The purple child nodded repeatedly.
Li Chonglou sighed, "I'm afraid I can't help you with that."
Disappointment flashed in the purple child's eyes.
"Can you sense the location of your true form?"
The purple child nodded.
"How about this, I promise you, after we leave here, when my cultivation is sufficient, I will help you reclaim your true form?"
Joy reappeared in the purple child's eyes, though still tinged with a trace of disappointment.
Only then did Li Chonglou withdraw from the consciousness space.
The purple child was precisely the consciousness of the Divine Thunder Source.
Although it had merged with Li Chonglou, it wasn't a relationship of mutual devouring. To say they were one entity would be more fitting.
Therefore, if he could help with its needs, Li Chonglou would naturally do so.
"Should I give it a name?"
Li Chonglou, his consciousness returned to reality, suddenly had this thought.
Since they would be together from now on, he couldn't just call it anything. Not having a name was simply out of the question. However, when it came to naming, he considered himself not good at it.
"Forget it, I'll call it Little Purple, since I already have Little White."
And so, the name for the Divine Thunder Source was confirmed, the entire process of consideration taking less than three seconds.
Not long after, Li Chonglou heard the exasperated voices of the old village chief and others nearby.
"Impossible! How could they break the seal?"
On Thunder Magnetic Island, because Hei Lao retreated, they had only cleared out some minor figures, which was no help at all.
They had originally intended to brainstorm solutions upon returning, but instead of finding a solution, they had to witness the birth of the Divine Thunder Source!
The old village chief was almost exploding with anger at this moment.
For the first time, the situation had completely exceeded his expectations.
"Village Chief, what do we do now?"
"What else can we do? Retreat first! The Divine Thunder Source has been born, and the heavenly thunder is in disarray. If we stay here any longer, even immortals couldn't save us!"
With a loud shout, the old village chief led his people to flee rapidly.
But in his heart, he knew this was just the beginning.
Once the Divine Thunder Source emerged, the heavenly thunder would be completely absorbed during its upheaval, and the power of rules on Thunder Magnetic Island would disappear.
At that time, they would no longer face experts who could only use secret techniques, but cultivators at their peak!
"Let's first retreat to our safe zone. Thunder Magnetic Island is gone."
After calming down, the old village chief sighed deeply.
Before this, he had never dared to imagine that the Divine Thunder Source would successfully emerge.
Because it not only meant the failure of his plans for many years but also the loss of this place he had lived in since childhood!
At this moment, he no longer possessed his previously arrogant demeanor. The figure of him leading the villagers away appeared somewhat desolate.
On the other side, Hei Lao, who had been hiding outside the island, felt the complete opposite.
"I knew they wouldn't fail!"
Within his sight, the scattered heavenly thunders in the distance suddenly converged, streams of white and purple light interweaving, forming a cloud of thunder in the sky.
The aura was astonishing!
Even from nearly a thousand meters away, Hei Lao could feel the deadly threat emanating from it.
But this was precisely what he wanted!
"Old man, now that the rules are gone, I'll see what else you have to fight me with!"
Hei Lao flickered and jumped directly onto the island.
As expected, the oppressive aura was gone, and the internal energy within him was no longer affected.
Stretching his muscles, Hei Lao removed his mask, revealing the weathered face of a middle-aged man.
"Old man, you thought the Divine Thunder Source was truly yours? Today, I'll let you know that I am the true master of Thunder Magnetic Island!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Hei Lao vanished from his spot.
And outside Thunder Magnetic Island.
Originally, with the disappearance of the mist from the Spirit Blast phase, outsiders could already enter along the sea currents.
Now, with the heavenly thunder completely gathered, it illuminated the sky for tens of thousands of kilometers around with a white and purple glow, attracting countless gazes.
From the nearest border of the Jungle Kingdom, the Hundong Gate, almost all their top experts emerged.
"What's going on?"
"It seems to be Thunder Magnetic Island. Could some treasure be emerging?"
"Don't you even know this? Thunder Magnetic Island has the legend of the Divine Thunder Source. With this kind of formation, it might be the Divine Thunder Source emerging!"
A seventh-level expert said excitedly while unfolding his movement technique and heading towards Thunder Magnetic Island.
Other experts who hadn't heard of the Divine Thunder Source legend, after explanations from others, also changed their expressions and followed suit.
What a joke, this was a true innate treasure, a treasure born from the source of heaven and earth. How could they miss it!
As for other seventh-level, and even hidden eighth-level experts, they privately transmitted the news, all for the purpose of attracting more people.
Those who were so close and hadn't heard anything about the situation there, and now suddenly the Divine Thunder Source was emerging, naturally needed some scouts to help ascertain the situation.
Those with strength were never in a hurry to be the first to taste the soup!
At worst, they could just snatch it from someone else.
And the General Bureau was also stunned by this sudden occurrence.
The instructor who was originally in charge had already been transferred back to headquarters for review. Now, the person in charge was the former deputy leader, Guo Mingzhong.
Guo Mingzhong was only at the early stage of the sixth level, but his strength could be considered top-notch, and he was also someone who had experienced major events. After a period of astonishment, he quickly reacted.
"Get the planes over there first. They might be coming out soon!"
Below Thunder Magnetic Island.
A killer poked his head out and took a look. Seeing no ambush, he turned and swam back down.
Not long after, Wolverine emerged from the water with everyone.
Chen Pingfan and the others also woke up, but they all wore bewildered expressions. Trapped amongst killers who were all at least at the fifth level, they dared not move.
They could only follow the group's movements.
"Captain, what do we do now? That thing just ran off without any control."
Wolverine sighed.
"Although my cultivation has been restored, I don't plan to get involved with this thing anymore. Whoever wants to go, go by yourselves."
"However, I must remind you, the experts coming this time will definitely include eighth-level cultivators, and possibly even legendary ninth-level overlords!"
The Divine Thunder Source was already a well-known existence among the top experts.
Everyone had heard the legend: whoever obtains this item will be invincible in the world!
Although the word "invincible" was a bit exaggerated, as there were always skies beyond the heavens, relatively speaking, it was enough to understand its status!
