Chapter 5671
The Soul Devourer’s face turned incredibly ugly, because very few people knew he was a traitor to the Heavenly Gate.
Most people in the Nine Heavens only knew that the Heavenly Gate had suddenly disappeared overnight; no one knew where it had gone.
“The Heavenly Gate Master kindly saved you, yet you repaid kindness with enmity, slaughtering the entire sect overnight.”
“The reason I’m waiting for you here today is because I promised the Heavenly Gate Master I would kill you to avenge everyone in the Heavenly Gate.”
Kai’s face was grim as he stared intently at the Soul Devourer.
“Hahaha, that’s right, I destroyed the entire Heavenly Gate, so what?”
“In this Heavenly Realm, who doesn’t rule by strength?”
“What ‘repaying kindness with enmity’? That’s all womanly thinking. I only know that by killing them and seizing their resources, I can increase my strength.”
The Soul Devourer laughed maniacally.
“Since that’s the case, then prepare to die!” Kai’s anger surged.
The Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand couldn’t contain itself any longer, emitting bursts of dragon roars.
The Soul Devourer’s maniacal laughter echoed in the hall, filled with boundless arrogance and disregard for life.
He looked at Kai, his contempt undiminished, as if Kai’s easy defeat of his Five Fiends was nothing more than child’s play, utterly insignificant.
“Avenge your Heavenly Gate?”
The Soul Devourer scoffed, shaking his head. “Boy, you think you can be so arrogant before me just because you’ve inherited a few pieces of the Heavenly Gate’s legacy? You think killing a few worthless trash gives you the right to challenge me?”
He slowly rose from his sect leader’s throne. With his movement, the light in the entire world seemed to dim, and an even denser demonic aura emanated from his body, like a tangible tide, making it difficult for everyone to breathe. The morale of
the Yama Heavenly Sect disciples, which had just been boosted by Kai, crumbled again under this overwhelming demonic pressure.
Yan Nantian and Liu Xue’s expressions were extremely solemn. They could sense that the Soul Devourer’s aura was unfathomable, far more terrifying than they had imagined.
Although Kai was strong, the outcome against this ancient demon who had dominated the Nine Heavens for ten thousand years was truly uncertain.
“Whether you’re qualified or not, we’ll find out soon enough!”
Kai’s eyes were sharp as swords. Sensing its master’s fighting spirit, the Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand roared even louder, its blade trembling, and countless sharp sword energies spontaneously swirled around it, shredding any approaching demonic energy.
“Hmph, ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.”
The Soul-Devouring Venerable seemed too lazy to personally intervene. He casually waved his hand, the movement light and effortless, as if shooing away a fly.
However, with this casual wave, the space before him suddenly emitted a tearing sound as if it couldn’t withstand the pressure!
“Sizzle—!”
A pitch-black rift appeared out of thin air, its edges shimmering with unstable spatial turbulence, radiating a destructive aura.
Immediately afterward, a powerful, primal, ancient aura, carrying the weight of time, emanated from the rift.
Under the horrified gazes of everyone, an extremely burly and robust man, nearly ten feet tall, stepped out from the spatial rift!
The man wore tattered bronze armor, marked with countless chisel and axe marks, as if it had witnessed countless brutal battles.
His skin was bronze-colored, his muscles bulging, brimming with explosive power.
His face was as resolute as a rock sculpture, but his eyes were empty and indifferent, devoid of any emotion, like a soulless killing machine.
Most strikingly, an extremely profound fluctuation of law flowed around him, causing the air and light around him to distort slightly, giving an unreal feeling.
Upon the appearance of this burly man, even the remaining Blood Fiends under the Soul Devourer’s command instinctively took a few steps back, their eyes filled with deep fear.
“This brat, he’s yours,”
the Soul Devourer said, returning to his throne, lazily resting his chin on his hand, as if what followed was merely a boring drama. “Don’t play around for too long, my patience is limited.”
