When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

Chapter 145 Raiding the Thunder Planet

what?

No way, Ninth Brother!

After eating and taking everything, you still want to copy other people's food?

Zhu Chongjiu glared at Xiao Jin, who had spoken, and angrily said, "What do you know?"

Once we've greatly improved our abilities and achieved academic success, we can build one of these too.

This is all our family's wealth.

What do we have now? Besides the rats and the light-elemental guards?

If I don't take it and act like a saint, will our family fortune depend on you few in the future?

Hurry up, have you ever seen a thief who discusses things before stealing?

If you dawdle a little longer, once the master of this world arrives, you won't be able to escape even if you want to.

"When we become successful in the future, we can pay him back, and maybe give him some interest."

After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu was the first to jump into the Thunder Pool and began to pry down the stone slabs, putting them into his storage ring as he did so.

Seeing that Zhu Chongjiu had already started working, all the little ones jumped into the pit and repeated Zhu Chongjiu's actions.

Seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu pried at the stone while saying to the children, "Everyone be careful not to damage this stone slab. We need to put it back exactly as it was in the future."

"If anything happens, Xiong Da, don't be clumsy. While ensuring speed, you must also ensure quality. Do you know if this thing will still be usable if it's chipped or broken?"

An hour later, Zhu Chongjiu, covered in sweat, sat back to back with the children.

Xiao Mu said weakly, "My old back is about to break!"

As soon as Xiao Mu finished speaking, Zhu Chongjiu wiped the sweat from his forehead, stood up and said to Xiao Mu, "Little brat, you have no backbone."

"Get up quickly, everyone. We can't stay here any longer."

After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu took out the spaceship directly from his storage ring.

The little ones scrambled onto the flying boat. After Zhu Chongjiu placed a fairy crystal in it, they vanished from their spot and reappeared millions of miles away from Thunder Planet.

Zhu Chongjiu then jumped more than ten times in a row without stopping before slowing down.

Spaceships have more than just the ability to traverse space. When not in a hurry, they can also fly with the aid of internal energy. Moreover, their flight speed is two to three times faster than their natural flight speed.

After all, the immortal crystals of the Rat Guardian are limited, and Zhu Chongjiu and his group were wandering around aimlessly, so they didn't need to use immortal crystals for space jumps all the time.

Five days later, when Zhu Chongjiu felt that he was almost completely safe, he released Haozi Guangwei from his storage ring.

As soon as Haozi Guangwei took out his storage ring, he excitedly asked Zhu Chongjiu, "Brother Jiu, where did you get the already engraved 'Thunder Reflection Array'?"

Moreover, it was a large array carved on the Golden Thunder Stone.

Oh? Since you know, then tell me.

Zhu Chongjiu was extremely satisfied with this cunning Guangwei; he knew exactly what Guangwei was up to the task at a glance. The only question was, how could such a clever person have fallen for his trick in the first place?

After Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking, Haozi Guangwei said, "This Thunder Reflection Array can only be inscribed by a powerhouse at the Heavenly Monarch level or above."

The purpose of this grand formation is to gather the lightning elements in the universe and then transform them into lightning elixir.

For those who cultivate the laws of thunder, that is a treasure trove they yearn for.

The advantage of this man-made lightning pool is that it is controllable. Even if you are a weakling who has not yet advanced to the Heavenly Official level, you can cultivate within the outer perimeter of the array's radiation or by controlling the array's intensity. Compared to naturally formed lightning worlds, cultivating within the Reflecting Thunder Array will not harm you in the slightest, making it far safer.

Only a very few immortal abodes that cultivate the laws of thunder have the ability to set up such a large array.

After listening to Haozi Guangwei's introduction, Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "The Thunder Reflection Array and the Golden Thunder Stone? Good, good, good. It's good that they are treasures. It was worth it to lead a group of children to be thieves."

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Chongjiu glanced at Haozi Guangwei.

Haozi Guangwei instantly understood and continued, "If Ninth Brother has nothing else, please return me to my storage ring. After all, I have lost all my magic power and am not very comfortable in this void of the universe."

Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "So sensible!"

After waving his hand to put the rat-shaped light guard back into his storage ring, he looked out into the void of space and began to ponder where to go next.

After all, he had already successfully advanced, and the unexpected gains were plentiful. Discovering the Thunder Pool Essence had further enhanced his understanding of the laws of lightning, and he had also cultivated a rather impressive eye-based supernatural ability.

As a result, Xiao Lei ate until he was very full and had a big, fat mouth. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be hard to say who is stronger between him and Xiao Rou when they appear in front of everyone.

It also obtained the extremely precious Thunder Reflection Array carved on the outer gold thunderstone.

Even if I don't use it in the future, I'm sure I can sell it for a good price.

Oh, and Little Black too.

When Zhu Chongjiu thought of Xiao Hei, something unusual happened in his storage ring. Haozi Guangwei spoke to himself through the spell Zhu Chongjiu had previously told him: "Xiao Hei seems to be about to advance successfully. Let Zhu Chongjiu take a look."

Upon hearing Haozi Guangwei's words, Zhu Chongjiu immediately moved Xiao Hei out of his storage ring without saying a word.

When Xiao Hei appeared before everyone, Zhu Chongjiu discovered that the cosmic clouds that had enveloped Xiao Hei had disappeared.

Zhu Chongjiu asked in surprise, "When I first came out of seclusion a few days ago, I could still detect a thick layer of cosmic clouds around Xiao Hei's body. How come it's all gone in just a few days?"

Just as Zhu Chongjiu was surprised, Xiao Hei in the void suddenly opened its tightly closed eyes, and its body began to grow rapidly. As its body grew larger, its aura also surged.

In an instant, the once calm cosmic void suddenly became swept by a fierce wind, and rolling cosmic clouds emanating from Xiao Hei's body enveloped it once again.

However, this was not the end. The cosmic cloud emanating from Xiao Hei's body was growing wider and wider, and it was about to encompass the flying boat where Zhu Chongjiu and the other little ones were located.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu immediately steered his flying boat away to avoid it.

About ten minutes later, the cloud stopped spreading outwards. By this time, Zhu Chongjiu and his group were already tens of thousands of miles away from Xiao Hei in their flying boat.

Upon witnessing this scene, the little creatures on the airship exclaimed in surprise, their mouths agape, "What is Brother Hei doing?"

"Was all this vast expanse of cosmic clouds created by my brother Hei?"

Just as the little ones were discussing Xiao Hei, Zhou Yun gradually disappeared, or rather, was retracted into Xiao Hei's body.

A moment later, as the cosmic cloud disappeared, a colossal beast, tens of thousands of feet long and covered in jet-black scales, appeared before everyone's eyes.

Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "As expected of an ancient divine beast, it has such aura and strength even after just advancing to the Heavenly Official level. This is completely different from the Little Black before!"

As Zhu Chongjiu sighed, Xiao Hei raised its thousand-foot-long giant claw and stepped forward, appearing in front of everyone before it even landed.

"That was a really flashy move!" Xiao Mu said enviously.

When Xiao Hei flashed again, it had already transformed back to the size of a raccoon cat and appeared in Zhu Chongjiu's arms.

He rolled around happily and said, "Ninth Brother, I've successfully advanced!"

"From now on, I won't have to be afraid of exploding anymore."

Zhu Chongjiu was also happy for Xiao Hei and said to Xiao Hei, "Well done. After this advancement, you will be an adult in just over a thousand more rounds."

When you grow up, you too can become like them, with a human body.

Just as Zhu Chongjiu and his friends were immersed in the joy of Xiao Hei's successful advancement, a world-shaking upheaval was unfolding above the distant Thunder Planet. A tall, mighty, and imposing Heavenly King stood in the void, letting out a roar that resounded through the heavens. The roar seemed to penetrate the endless universe, causing the surrounding void to tremble.

At the same time, bolts of golden lightning erupted from the Heavenly King's body, like roaring dragons, spreading outwards with menacing claws. These lightning bolts contained world-destroying power, instantly engulfing the entire lightning planet. The once pitch-black planet was now illuminated by this dazzling golden light, as bright as day, shining so brilliantly that it was almost blinding.
