Looking at the scene before him, Shen Gongbao instantly realized why things had suddenly spiraled to this point. The Nine Heavens Thunder Control Grand Formation was already struggling just to defend against the Chaos Thunder Sea; by using it to channel a portion of the chaotic lightning into the defensive barrier, he had placed an immense burden on the formation. Its eventual shattering had become inevitable.
However, dwelling on this now was meaningless. Shen Gongbao had conjured the Nine Heavens Thunder Control Grand Formation specifically to facilitate his absorption of the chaotic lightning. Even if the formation could have held out for a while longer without drawing the lightning in, it would have been of little use to him. Ultimately, the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Tribulation was simply too powerful.
Without hesitation, the second before the Nine Heavens Thunder Control Grand Formation disintegrated completely, Shen Gongbao transformed, revealing his true form as a Thunder Leopard. As a lightning-attribute demonic beast, the Thunder Leopard possessed incredible resistance to electricity. Combined with the healing pills he had prepared in advance—which he now began swallowing like candy—his ability to survive within the Chaos Thunder Sea was pushed to its absolute limit.
