Chapter 5824
However, just as Soul Fiend turned to flee, even resorting to a life-threatening escape technique that depleted his very essence—
“Soul Fiend Sect Master, are you in such a hurry to leave?”
A hoarse, aged voice, as if two bones were rubbing together, echoed eerily, carrying a chilling coldness.
The voice came from deep within the Ten Thousand Souls Demon Sect’s camp, from the silent, pitch-black carriage pulled by nine skeletal demonic dragons.
The carriage curtains, without wind, slowly lifted.
A hunched, thin figure, seemingly blown away by a gust of wind, leaning on a gleaming white bone staff, stepped out of the carriage.
He was shrouded in a wide black robe, obscuring his face, revealing only a pair of eyes burning with eerie green flames.
Those green flames flickered erratically, as if they could directly scorch the soul.
With his appearance, the surrounding temperature plummeted, even the air seemed to freeze, filling the air with an overwhelming, impenetrable aura of death and decay.
The Supreme Elder of the Myriad Souls Demon Sect—the Ghost Bone Elder!
A true demonic tycoon who has lived for countless years and whose cultivation has reached the peak of the seventh rank of the Heavenly Immortal Realm! He
is also the last trump card and pillar of the Myriad Souls Demon Sect!
Seeing the Ghost Bone Elder appear, the Demon Sect disciples, who were on the verge of collapse, seemed to have grasped the last straw, and a glimmer of hope rekindled in their eyes.
Soul Fiend also grasped at a straw and hurriedly flew to the Ghost Bone Elder’s side, his voice filled with sobs and endless resentment: “Supreme Elder! You have finally made your move!”
“This child… this child is extremely evil, cruelly murdering many of our sect’s elders. Please, Elder, take action to suppress this fiend and avenge our fallen disciples and elders!”
The Ghost Bone Elder ignored Soul Fiend. His pair of eerie green fire eyes, like venomous snakes, were fixed on Kai in mid-air, scrutinizing him from head to toe, as if trying to see through him inside and out.
After a long pause, the hoarse, grating voice finally rang out, filled with undisguised contempt and chilling intent:
“Youngster, your methods are indeed ruthless and bizarre. I wonder where you got some worthless inheritance from, daring to swagger here and slaughter my Ten Thousand Souls Demon Sect members?”
“A mere ninth-grade Human Immortal, with a fragile foundation, dares to play tricks? Do you really think I can’t see through your disguise?”
“Kneel down, hand over your inheritance and treasures, cripple your cultivation, and I might spare your remnant soul to reincarnate, out of consideration for your arduous cultivation.” ”
Otherwise… I’ll let you taste what true soul-splitting and refining means, never to be reborn!”
The Ghost Bone Elder’s words, like a chilling wind from the depths of hell, swept across the battlefield, sending shivers down the spines of countless people.
His undisguised greed and cruelty chilled everyone to the bone.
Upon hearing this, Kai finally looked directly at this Supreme Elder of the Ten Thousand Souls Demon Sect for the first time.
His gaze remained calm, only lingering for a moment on the dense aura of death and decay emanating from the old man with the ghost bones. Then, a faint, yet colder, curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“To be old and not die is to be a thief.”
Kai spoke slowly, his voice not loud, yet clearly reaching everyone’s ears. “You reek of decay, half your body already buried, yet you dare to spout such nonsense?”
“You want to see my true nature?”
Kai slowly raised the Dragon-Slaying Sword, its tip pointing directly at the Ghost Bone Elder.
“Then, use your life to see.”
The moment his words fell, Kai moved.
There was no grand display, no gathering of power.
He simply thrust his sword towards the Ghost Bone Elder.
This sword strike was unlike any he had ever made before.
The instant the sword was drawn, the previously hidden chaotic Dao aura around Kai erupted with a thunderous roar!
Behind him, the phantom of the Chaotic Fire Lotus became clearer than ever before, slowly rotating and scattering billions of chaotic rays of light.
The Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand, for the first time, unleashed its own unparalleled sharpness, seemingly capable of cleaving galaxies and slaughtering true dragons!
A sword aura, condensed to its utmost perfection, seemingly devouring all light and color, leaving only the purest essence of “chaos” and “annihilation,” burst forth from the sword’s tip!
This sword aura, initially only as thick as a thumb, traversed spatial distance the instant it left the sword’s tip, seemingly ignoring the constraints of time and rules, appearing directly before the Ghost Bone Elder’s brow!
Fast!
Indescribably fast!
As if this sword was meant to be there!
Powerful!
Indescribably powerful!
Wherever the sword aura passed, space silently annihilated, leaving behind a long-unhealing, pitch-black trail, within which earth, water, fire, and wind seemed to replay, and stars seemed to be born and die!
The Ghost Bone Elder’s eerie green-flame eyes suddenly contracted to the size of pinpoints the moment the sword aura appeared!
He felt it! That supreme, annihilating sword intent that made his very soul tremble! And the chaotic flame aura contained within that sword intent, seemingly capable of burning away the death demonic energy he had painstakingly cultivated for millennia!
