In the midst of everyone's horrified gazes, the fist, shrouded in dark energy, struck mercilessly towards Lei Zhengxuan.
However, Su Dong had clearly overthought things.
Who was Lei Zhengxuan? He was a genuine Grand Unity Golden Immortal, how could he be harmed by such a sneak attack?
Immediately, his expression turned furious, and he let out a deafening roar, "You scoundrel! Die!"
Just as Su Dong was about to strike him, Lei Zhengxuan slammed his palm onto Su Dong's head.
The fierce lightning energy instantly shattered Su Dong's skull. Su Dong's expression became vacant, and thick blood flowed from his seven orifices.
He then widened his eyes, tilted his head back, and fell.
His skin also rapidly turned gray.
The death was, to say the least, extremely gruesome!
Witnessing this, everyone averted their gazes, not daring to look further.
Lei Zhengxuan's palm trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but sigh.
In his eyes, Su Dong had always been a promising seedling.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have prioritized gifting him the immortal root.
With Su Dong's strength, if he had proceeded steadily, he might not have been unable to achieve something.
It was just a pity that if a person took the wrong path, it was equivalent to ruining their entire life.
It could only be blamed on Su Dong's self-inflicted misfortune.
Everyone fell silent. Lei Zhengxuan waved his hand and said, "Alright, bury him."
"Due to the sins he committed, he cannot be buried in the Lei Realm. As for how to proceed, you arrange it yourselves."
The disciples responded in unison, preparing to handle the corpse.
But at this moment, Wu Tian suddenly raised his hand and said,
"Wait!"
Hearing this, Lei Zhengxuan looked at him and asked, "What is it?"
Wu Tian looked at Su Dong's strength, his lips curving slightly, and he smiled, "I say, how long are you going to hide?"
"Do you think you can escape unscathed by faking your death?"
Everyone failed to understand what Wu Tian was talking about. Seeing that Su Dong remained motionless, Wu Tian chuckled again,
"You refuse to come out? Fine, then you can die right here."
Wu Tian's aura suddenly surged.
Just as he was about to make a move, a dense black energy suddenly erupted from Su Dong's body.
It then formed a mass of black mist in mid-air.
This turn of events greatly alarmed everyone, while Wu Tian merely smiled faintly, "Decided to come out?"
The black mist writhed in the air, and then a ferocious demonic face appeared.
It spoke venomously, "What a sharp one. I've hidden so deeply, yet you still managed to find me."
Wu Tian smiled faintly and said, "It's not sharpness, it's experience."
"After all, I've dealt with your kind of demonic creatures quite a bit. Do you think I can be fooled by you?"
The demon was clearly enraged. It cast a hateful glance at Su Dong and said, "It's all this scoundrel's fault!"
"I knew I shouldn't have come back, but if I hadn't been severely injured, how would the control of this body have fallen into his hands!"
"Damn it, it's truly damnable!"
Facing its anger, Wu Tian still smiled faintly and said, "Alright, saying these words now is useless."
"Since you have no more tricks up your sleeve, that's it. You can die now."
Sensing the sharp aura emanating from Wu Tian, the demon was greatly startled.
In its current state, even Lei Qianjiao could kill it, let alone someone like Wu Tian, a fifth-turn Golden Immortal.
It quickly shouted, "Wait! Wait! You can't kill me!"
"I'm telling you, I am a subordinate of Emperor Shitain!"
"In not too long, the Demon Emperor will descend upon the mortal world again!"
"If you kill me, the Demon Emperor will not let you go!"
Wu Tian burst into laughter, saying playfully, "Emperor Shitain? Are you referring to this?"
As his voice fell, something incredible happened!
A rolling demonic energy spread out from Wu Tian, scaring the disciples of the Sacred Thunder Sect backward.
Lei Zhengxuan exclaimed in shock, "Wu, Wu Tian, what is this..."
Over the years, he had encountered many demonic creatures. He could tell at a glance that the dark energy on Wu Tian was definitely demonic energy!
The demon's shock was evidently far greater. It trembled violently, then said in terror, "What, what is going on?"
"How do you have the aura of the Demon Emperor? It's impossible, it's simply impossible!"
As a demon of the Demon Emperor rank, it had never been as terrified as it was now, even when it was captured.
But the aura Wu Tian displayed this time had truly frightened it.
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Impossible? Why would it be impossible?"
"Half of Emperor Shitain has already been devoured by me. Relying on him to save you is probably impossible."
"What?!" the demon exclaimed again.
As a subordinate of Emperor Shitain, Emperor Shitain was like a god to it.
But such a great existence had actually died at the hands of this young man?
Wasn't this an absurd notion?
It was about to deny it when a terrifying thought filled its mind before it could even speak.
It shared memories with Su Dong, so it understood what kind of strength Wu Tian possessed before entering the Thunder God Immortal Realm.
But now, his realm had improved so rapidly, and he even possessed Emperor Shitain's aura. This...
The demon dared not think further, for the more it thought, the more its fear intensified.
It looked at Wu Tian in horror, unable to comprehend how Emperor Shitain could have fallen into Wu Tian's hands, no matter how hard it tried.
But Wu Tian gave it no more time. With a thought, the demonic energy returned to his body.
Naturally, he couldn't truly possess demonic energy; it was merely the part he hadn't absorbed yet.
He said coldly, "Alright, enough idle talk."
"If you hadn't pursued me back then, you would have died in the Thunder God Immortal Realm long ago."
"So today, I suppose I'll be sending you to where you belong."
Lightning flashed around Wu Tian, and a deadly pressure instantly surged towards the demon.
The demon's heart tightened. It quickly changed direction, transforming into a serpentine shape and flying towards the sky.
Wu Tian had no intention of pursuing. His gaze remained locked onto the demon.
Just as the demon was about to disappear, Wu Tian suddenly pointed his finger!
A pure bolt of lightning shot out from his fingertip, piercing the target like an arrow.
A violent explosion instantly ignited the sky. Amidst the demon's shrill screams, a raging inferno spread out.
The screams lasted for a full half-minute before disappearing. As the sea of flames dissipated, not a trace of demonic energy could be seen in the sky.
"It's over..."
Wu Tian let out a soft sigh of relief, a brilliant smile appearing on his face.
