Throne of Gods: Divine thunder descends, and the Qilin descends upon the world!

Chapter 41 Demigod Inheritance, A Bao Who Betrayed His Teammate

As Yuehui put the last volume of the pill formula into her storage ring and walked out of the pill room with Xiao Leiji, she suddenly stopped.

Something's not right.

He frowned slightly and looked up to survey his surroundings.

Although the lighting inside the temple remained unchanged, it still created a strange sense of oppression.

A faint, musty smell lingered in the air, and even the temperature seemed to have dropped a few degrees.

"whisper?"

Little Raiji nervously pressed herself against the moonlight, the lightning on her wings flickering slightly.

Moonlight sensed the changes around her with a solemn expression.

This sense of unease came without warning, like a sudden, biting wind blowing in the middle of summer, making one instinctively uneasy.

"It seems there's something wrong with the secret realm," Moonbeam muttered to himself, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes.

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked up at Little Lei Ji: "Take me directly to the Thunder Pool where you were born."

Reason told him that leaving now was the safest option.

After all, the gains from this trip have far exceeded expectations—not only did Little Leiji complete her evolution, but they also obtained a precious ancient pill recipe.

but.
Now that we've entered this treasure trove, how can we leave empty-handed?

Moreover, this place may very well contain the legacy of a demigod!

"whisper!"

Little Ragnarok nodded heavily, then flew towards the deepest part of the temple with Moonlight.

……

"You...you're that guy from the Demon Bear Clan? What do you want?!"

The members of the Rebellious Demon Dragon Clan stared at the approaching Thunder Bear, their pupils shrinking sharply.

At this moment, Lei Xiong was shrouded in eerie black mist, his eyes were as black as ink, and his mouth was stretched into an exaggerated arc, revealing his gleaming white teeth.

The overwhelming sense of oppression made him instinctively take two steps back.

"Hehehe," Thanatos let out a hoarse, eerie laugh. "Not bad luck, encountering dragons right after breaking free from the seal."

He raised his hand, and grayish-white mist condensed in his palm. "Be my mount, and I will grant you unparalleled power!"

"God? You?!" The member of the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan laughed in fury, his body erupting with astonishing demonic energy. "You mere Demon Bear Clan dare to despise my Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan!"

boom--!
A raging, purplish-black demonic flame shot into the sky, and his body twisted and deformed violently in the light.

With a cracking sound of bones breaking, a ferocious black dragon twenty meters long burst out of the sky.

Its jet-black scales gleamed with a cold metallic luster, two spiraling horns on its head were wrapped in crimson lightning, its broad wings stirred up a violent hurricane, and its dark red dragon eyes burned with raging fury.

"A mere eighth-tier dragon?" Thanatos raised his decaying finger with disdain, the gray nails wreathed in the aura of death. "It'll barely serve as a means of transportation."

Before the words were even finished, the grayish-white mist of death surged from the ground like a living thing, instantly transforming into a towering wave that completely engulfed the black dragon.

"This is impossible!" the black dragon roared in terror, its wings flapping wildly and whipping up a gale. "The rules of the secret realm clearly restrict power above the sixth rank!!"

Amidst a piercing scream, his scales rotted and peeled off at a visible speed, his flesh dissolving in the aura of death.

In just a few breaths, only a stark white dragon skeleton remained on the spot, with two eerie dark red soul flames flickering in its eye sockets.

"Ridiculous. How can the rules of the gods bind beings of the same level?"

He took a deep breath, his chapped lips contorting into a horrifying arc: "The soul of a dragon is indeed a hundred times more delicious than that stupid bear."

"But that's not enough. I need more, much more power!"

……

Deep within the temple, a vast sea of ​​lightning surged ceaselessly.

Blinding lightning intertwined in the void, forming a destructive energy field.

In the center of the sea of ​​lightning stood a mysterious statue—its indistinct outline made it difficult to discern its gender, only the three pairs of broad wings on its back flickered in the lightning, radiating a suffocating pressure. As Moonbeam followed Little Thunder Princess through the final barrier, a figure at the edge of the sea of ​​lightning caused his pupils to shrink sharply.

"Brother Ahui, we meet again." Abao turned around with a meaningful smile on his lips, seemingly unsurprised by his arrival.

"Ah Bao?" Yuehui took a half step back without making a sound, her spiritual power flowing silently.

He found this place with the help of Little Ragnarok, but Po managed to arrive first?
Recalling how A Bao had invited him to search for the demigod's legacy together in the flower field of the temple, a cold glint flashed in Yuehui's eyes.

All signs indicate that this "prospective brother-in-law" probably has ulterior motives.

For example, using him as a guinea pig to explore the path...

“Don’t be nervous.” Abao spread his hands and gave a friendly smile. “See that statue? That should be the legacy left by the master of the secret realm. And the pale purple light curtain behind the statue must be the exit.”

Yuehui glanced at the center of the sea of ​​lightning out of the corner of her eye and, sure enough, discovered a faint purple light gate behind the statue.

"So?" Yuehui asked calmly.

“Whoever receives the inheritance, we’ll each make a copy and give it to the other, shall we?” Abao suggested.

Just as Yuehui was pondering, a deafening explosion suddenly rang out!

The two turned their heads sharply and saw a gray-white demon bear emerge from the dust, followed by two twenty-meter-long, pale white bone dragons!
"Ah Xuan! Ah Lin!" Ah Bao's pupils shrank, and his spiritual power surged instantly. "You actually dared to attack the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan!"

"Oh?" Thanatos chuckled hoarsely. "I didn't expect such an unexpected bonus."

But when his gaze fell upon Little Lei Ji, his decaying face suddenly twisted in pain: "Thunder Emperor?! Impossible! You clearly already..."

"Ring!" Little Ragnarok was so frightened that she shrank behind Moonlight, only showing half of her head.

Thanatos then came to his senses and chuckled dryly, "I see. It's just an elemental spirit born from the remnants of the Thunder Emperor's power."

He licked his dry lips. "That saved me the trouble of searching."

"Brother Ahui, let's join forces to kill this fiend!" Abao roared, his dragon wings unfurling behind him, dark purple lightning condensing wildly on his dragon claws.

Moonlight understood, and Thunder Sword was drawn with a clang: "Just what I wanted!"

With a flap of his wings, A Bao darted out like lightning.

The dragon's claws, crackling with dark lightning, tore through the air and aimed straight for Thanatos's throat.

"Damn lightning again!" Thanatos frowned in disgust, and the bone dragon on his right immediately blocked his way.

Boom!

The dragon claws collided with the bone dragon, unleashing a deafening roar.

Just as Po was about to change his move, the gray-white mist around the bone dragon suddenly wrapped around his arm as if it were alive.

"What the hell is this?!" Abao struggled desperately, but found that the more he resisted, the faster the mist eroded his scales, and the aura of death had begun to seep into them.

"Silent Thunder Death Ray - Thunder Dragon!"

With a roar, Yuehui unleashed a surge of lightning around him.

The energy in the sea of ​​thunder was drawn in and transformed into a ferocious thunder dragon.

The dragon opened its massive jaws and swallowed the entire bone dragon into the lightning.

boom!
A blinding flash of lightning erupted, and the gray-white mist instantly dissipated.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Abao broke free and quickly retreated to Yuehui's side.

“Be careful,” he gasped, his dragon-transformed right arm still trembling slightly. “This power is very similar to the methods of the Necromancer God.”

Moonlight nodded solemnly, his gaze fixed on Thanatos.

A terrible thought surfaced in his mind:
Necromancer!

Just as Yuehui was about to speak, a sharp whooshing sound suddenly rang in her ears.

He turned his head sharply and saw that A Bao's dragon wings were fully spread out, rushing towards the statue in the center of the sea of ​​thunder at an astonishing speed—or rather, the pale purple exit of the secret realm behind the statue!
"Hold on, Brother Ahui!" Abao's voice came from afar, his tone deliberately anxious. "I'll go get reinforcements right away, and we'll definitely kill this scoundrel here!"

Moonlight: ? ? ?
(Holy crap, you're betraying your teammates! Ah Bao, you're a real jerk!)
