Chapter 5834
“Trying to run?”
Just as Kai activated the Chaos Fire Lotus Origin, preparing to use a secret technique to escape, the Soul Devourer’s cold, mocking voice, like a chilling wind from the depths of the underworld, exploded directly in the depths of his consciousness!
Kai felt the space around him suddenly solidify and collapse, as if he had instantly fallen into incredibly viscous, millennia-old ice!
The newly ignited Chaos True Fire and spatial fluctuations were forcibly suppressed and extinguished by an even more vast and domineering invisible soul force and spatial laws!
“Playing with spatial escape techniques in front of me? Showing off your skills before an expert!”
The Soul Devourer’s figure did not move, but instead slowly closed his five fingers towards the distorted space where Kai was.
“Spatial Imprisonment – Soul Devouring Cage!”
“Crack crack crack—!”
Centered on Kai, the space within a hundred feet radius was as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand, emitting a teeth-grinding sound, like glass shattering under the weight!
Countless jet-black chains, forged from the purest soul power and fragments of space, suddenly extended from the void, instantly binding Kai and the chaotic true fire surrounding him tightly!
Countless hideous vengeful spirits appeared on the chains, frantically devouring Kai’s protective immortal light and divine soul, emitting a sizzling, corrosive sound.
“Ugh!”
Kai groaned, the backlash from the interrupted escape technique and the binding and corrosive chains exacerbating his injuries, causing blood to spill from his mouth again.
He frantically circulated his chaotic immortal power, attempting to break the chains, but they were incredibly tough, constantly absorbing his power and tightening even further!
Even the burning chaotic true fire could only make the chains glow slightly red, unable to burn through them immediately.
“Come back to me!”
The Soul Devourer coldly snorted, his clasped fingers suddenly pulling back!
“Whoosh—!”
Kai was like a kite pulled by an invisible rope, helplessly dragged back from the confined space.
He crashed heavily onto the ground not far from the Soul Devourer, sending shards of stone flying and dust billowing.
“Cough cough…”
Kai coughed violently, blood gushing from his mouth, staining the rubble beneath him.
He tried to struggle to his feet, but the chains of the Soul Devourer’s Cage remained tightly bound, relentlessly eroding his strength and will, making even standing difficult.
“Run? Did I give you permission to run?”
The Soul Devourer slowly strode forward, looking down at the disheveled Kai, the mockery and cruelty in the two red lights almost overflowing. “I haven’t had enough fun yet, junior.” Before
the words were finished, the Soul Devourer raised his right foot, the sole covered in black scales burning with eerie green soul fire, and stomped down hard on Kai’s back!
“Bang—!!!”
A dull, resounding crash, accompanied by the clear sound of bones shattering!
“Pfft!”
Kai felt as if he had been struck by a giant hammer, his entire body almost crushed into the ground, a searing pain shooting through his back.
His spine seemed to have cracked, his internal organs violently jolted, and another mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of his internal organs gushed out, his vision blurring.
“Hmm? Pretty tough, huh?”
The Soul Devourer seemed somewhat surprised by the resilience of Kai’s body, but then, his cruel smile deepened. “I’ll see how long you can stay tough!”
He raised his foot and stomped down again!
“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”
One stomp after another! As if trampling on an insignificant ant!
The Soul Devourer wasn’t simply using brute force; each stomp contained a sinister demonic energy that eroded the soul and corroded the body!
Kai’s indestructible golden body had long been shattered, and his chaotic immortal power was corroded by the chains, making its circulation sluggish. He could only rely on his powerful physique to withstand the attack.
But even though his body had been tempered by the Chaotic True Fire and many times, it began to rapidly collapse in the face of such a brutal attack from an old demon who had once surpassed the Heavenly Immortal level!
His back was torn open, his bones groaned under the unbearable pressure, his internal organs felt like they were about to shatter, and his meridians were riddled with holes by the invading demonic energy!
Waves of excruciating pain assaulted his nerves, and his soul teetered on the brink of collapse under the biting of vengeful spirits and the impact of demonic sounds.
Humiliation!
Unprecedented humiliation!
Kai’s eyes were bloodshot, his teeth were almost grinding to powder, and a beast-like growl escaped his throat.
He frantically urged the Chaos Fire Lotus within his dantian, attempting to unleash a final burst of power in resistance!
The Chaos True Fire struggled to burn on his body, trying to scorch the chains and the invading demonic energy. The Dragon-Slaying Sword hummed in the distance, but he suppressed it with his divine sense, preventing it from automatically protecting its master and revealing its final trump card.
“Still dare to resist?”
Sensing the unyielding struggle within Kai’s body and the scorching heat of the Chaos True Fire, the Soul Devourer’s eyes flashed with impatience and coldness. “Stubborn to the end! Then I’ll make you utterly despair!”
He stopped stomping and instead extended a demonic hand, a black vortex swirling in his palm, radiating a terrifying suction force.
This demonic vortex specifically devoured the essence of living beings and the origin of their souls; it was one of the Soul Devourer’s signature divine abilities!
The demonic vortex aimed at Kai’s crown and slowly pressed down!
A terrifying suction force came, and Kai felt his life force, Chaos Immortal Power, and even his divine consciousness begin to flow uncontrollably towards the demonic vortex!
It was as if he was being drained, sucked dry, and ultimately reduced to an empty shell!
“It’s over, junior. I’ll accept your opportunity.”
The Soul Devourer’s voice was cold and ruthless.
The shadow of death, clearer than ever before, completely enveloped Kai.
His consciousness began to blur, his power rapidly dissipated, even the rotation of the Chaos Fire Lotus slowed down…
Could it be… that he really was going to die here?
Die at the hands of this old demon?
No!
He was unwilling!
Absolutely unwilling!
Just as Kai’s consciousness was about to sink, and the Soul Devourer’s vortex was about to touch the top of his head—
“Stop!”
A clear and majestic shout, like a thunderclap from the heavens, suddenly exploded in the air above this bloody ruin!
