Chapter 347 – The True Power of the God-Tier (Part One)

“Ruthless Sea of Fire” was one of those calamities passed down through generations, a familiar phrase to all.

Little did anyone know, the raging inferno before them was precisely that.

At a glance, the blazing flames resembled heavenly fire—once ignited, they seemed eternal, burning relentlessly.

From within the flames, deafening roars echoed intermittently, shaking one to the core.

Boom!

Then, like a thunderclap from clear skies, another explosion erupted. The sea of fire surged violently, like a fiery beast devouring everything, before spitting out a golden figure.

One couldn’t help but be startled at the sight.

It was none other than Ye Kuang!

Encased in flames, he shot through the air at breakneck speed, leaving a long, fiery trail in his wake.

Instantly, Pang Hu’s face paled slightly at the scene.

The reason was simple: Ye Kuang appeared to be at a slight disadvantage.

But just then, a roar pierced the sky, like continuous thunderclaps, its fury palpable to all who heard it.

“You wretched scum! How dare you wound this king? I’ll reduce you to ashes!”

“Venomous Blaze, heed my call… Hahaha…”

Amid maniacal laughter, the Cremation King opened his mouth wide, transforming into a humanoid monster that devoured the sea of fire. The terrifying flames were swallowed in an instant, like water being sucked into a whale, leaving behind only faint wisps of smoke in the night sky, vanishing with the wind.

At that moment, Ye Kuang hovered mid-air, his body eerily weightless as he began to descend slowly.

But when he witnessed this unbelievable scene, his eyes sharpened involuntarily.

The Cremation King spewed black sludge, crackling with lightning, and grinned viciously. “Now you’re nothing but a living target. I’ve decided—your bones shall turn to dust.”

Hearing this, Ye Kuang’s expression shifted abruptly!

Crack—boom!

A deafening roar filled his ears. A brilliant flash of light, zigzagging like lightning in a “Z” shape, instantly engulfed him.

Seeing this, Sophia’s face turned ashen, her lips trembling uncontrollably.

In that moment, Pang Hu and the other three, along with the bodyguards, wore identical expressions of horror.

“Dammit! This old monster is too powerful. Let’s attack together!”

“Fatso, get back here!”

“Senior, you…”

Sophia didn’t turn her head or respond. Instead, she stared blankly at the spot where Ye Kuang had been mid-air, murmuring, “Since he said he’d clear this obstacle for me, I’ll trust him to the end.”

Pang Hu: “Right! Little Ye isn’t as weak as we thought.”

Gao Qing seized the chance to taunt: “And who was it just now, worried sick, suggesting we gang up on him?”

Pang Hu: “What do you know? I was… I was…”

Zheng Xiucai didn’t miss the opportunity to join in: “Was what? I’m curious.”

Pang Hu: “…”

Ling Yun scolded them: “What are you all doing, fighting among yourselves at a time like this? If you have the guts, go up there yourselves!”

But in response, Ling Yun was met with a collective middle finger.

It could be said that the Cremation King had been about to let out a triumphant laugh, reveling in his sadistic pleasure, but his expression shifted just as abruptly.”Huh… Not dead yet? Are you some kind of destiny cockroach, kid?”

Ye Kuang burst through the rubble and rock layers, his whole body emitting a buzzing sound as he bared his teeth like a grinning fiend: “I dare not claim to be a cockroach, please call me Little Strong, thank you.”

Suddenly, he felt a chilling cold sweep over him, a refreshingly cool sensation that made him inwardly curse, and he began rapping to himself: “What’s flying up in the sky, what’s running on the ground? Damn it, why don’t I feel embarrassed at all? What do you all think we should do?”

Pang Hu: “I didn’t realize this guy is so wild and arrogant. Could his brain have been damaged?”

Gao Qing: “What the hell, I never expected him to be such a hidden powerhouse.”

Ling Yun: “…”

Seeing this, Zheng Xiucai couldn’t help but make comparisons inwardly, feeling so embarrassed he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

Sophia’s face turned crimson, but her pretty eyes were clearly dazed, obviously at a loss for words.

One could say she had seen many shameless individuals, but she never expected to encounter the very ancestor of shamelessness right before her eyes.

As for this, even Cremation King probably didn’t know what to think, suddenly losing his composure, clearly wishing he could slice that certain madman into a thousand pieces.

“Damn trash, how dare you provoke me in my presence? Have you grown tired of living?”

“Huh? What nonsense are you spouting, old man?”

“Nonsense your grandmother’s ghost! Die for me!”

The moment Cremation King’s words fell, they attracted countless curious gazes, all fixed intently on him.

When it came to wild imaginations, naturally it had to be Pang Hu who could produce miracles through vulgar means.

“That old guy wouldn’t, would he? Oh my, I’m dying of laughter.”

“What are you laughing at?”

“You naturally wouldn’t understand what I’m laughing about, but not knowing how to describe it is the real punchline.”

Hearing this, Ling Yun couldn’t help but wonder inwardly: “You might as well just spell it out clearly. Our small brains can’t keep up with your train of thought.”

Their conversation was completely unabashed, gradually causing someone to begin losing control.

Cremation King’s face turned as dark as ink, glaring viciously at Pang Hu as he roared: “You little brat, I’ll deal with you later! Just wait a moment.”

Upon hearing this, Pang Hu unexpectedly burst into even greater laughter.

Clearly, Cremation King’s uncharacteristic tone only confirmed his suspicions, making him laugh so hard he doubled over in pain, grinning and bearing it.

Sophia: “You should laugh less. Your wounds haven’t healed yet.”

“Hiss…” Pang Hu immediately couldn’t help sucking in a sharp breath.

Unbeknownst to them, Cremation King suddenly turned around, scanning the area with a devouring glare before resuming his previous cold and ruthless demeanor: “Kid, you’re really full of yourself.” Fine, just fine. It seems without showing some real capability, you won’t understand why I’m known as one of the Tycoons, the origin of Cremation King!”

At this, Cremation King suddenly roared wildly: “Let me show you my true God-Tier strength![Note: The meaning of 尽: 1. finish. 2. reach the limit. 3. end; conclude. 4. use all of. 5. strive to accomplish. 6. death. 7. all. 8. adverb. ① all; entirely; ② merely; only.
