Chapter 5913
“Boom!”
Endless dark red demonic flames erupted from his palm!
These flames twisted and deformed rapidly in mid-air, transforming into thousands upon thousands of ferocious demons burning with dark red flames!
These fiery demons were more solid and terrifying than the previous vengeful spirits.
They howled, carrying the scorching heat of burning souls and the chilling coldness of eroding life.
From above, below, left, right, and all directions, they attacked Kai like a torrential rain!
Each demon locked onto Kai’s soul,
as if they would not rest until they dragged him into the hell of demonic flames!
Before the attack even arrived, the eerie feeling of extreme heat and soul freezing had already completely enveloped the space where Kai was!
Kai took a deep breath, his eyes instantly becoming as sharp as a hawk’s.
He no longer held back, and the chaotic immortal power within his body surged and roared at an unprecedented speed.
The golden dragon bloodline in his dantian emitted a passionate dragon roar.
The circulation of the Earth Fire True Scripture reached its peak, and it seemed as if a great red-gold sun was burning in his heart!
Three forces, forcibly unified by his will at this moment, were poured into the Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand!
“Chaos as the foundation, golden dragon as the soul, earth fire as the blade…”
“Three Absolutes united!”
“Slash!!!”
The Dragon-Slaying Sword emitted a clear, resounding sword cry that shook the heavens!
A sword aura, only a few feet wide yet indescribably condensed, suddenly erupted!
This sword aura was no longer a single color.
Its core was a dark gray of primordial chaos, seemingly containing the primordial power of the beginning of creation.
Inside the sword aura, a lifelike phantom of a five-clawed golden dragon coiled and swirled, emitting a majestic and awe-inspiring dragon roar.
It provided indestructible sharpness and impenetrable protection.
On the surface of the sword aura, crimson-gold earth fire flames burned fiercely like the most loyal guardians,
radiating a heat that could incinerate the eight wastelands and a sacred power that could purify evil!
This sword strike was the culmination of Kai’s three hundred years of seclusion.
It was the strongest sword strike he could unleash with his current cultivation level!
It was a perfect unity of skill, power, will, and the Dao!
The sword flashed, and the world paled in comparison!
The raging energy currents in the abyss seemed to freeze before this sword!
The sword aura swept across, without any grand momentum, only an absolute, undeniable “annihilation”!
“Sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle!”
Like a red-hot knife slicing through butter, or sunlight dispelling morning mist.
The thousands upon thousands of Soul-Devouring Flame demonic ghosts that charged forward, upon contact with this three-colored sword aura,
no matter how solid they were, no matter how bizarre their power, were
as if they had encountered their natural enemy. They couldn’t even struggle before collapsing, evaporating, and annihilating!
The sword aura continued its momentum, like a comet streaking across the night sky, directly striking the Soul-Devouring Lord’s true form!
The Soul-Devouring Lord finally showed a look of horror on his face!
He hadn’t expected that one of his strongest divine abilities after fusing with the demonic flames would be so easily broken by the opponent! The power contained within that sword aura posed a deadly threat to him!
“Soul-Devouring Demon Armor! Protect!”
he roared, his dark red scales gleaming brightly.
Instantly, a thick shield covered in jagged barbs and burning with raging demonic flames materialized before him!
Simultaneously, he retreated rapidly!
“Clang!!!”
The sword aura struck the demonic shield, producing a deafening clang like metal clashing.
But it sounded more like the final wails of countless wronged souls being purified in an instant!
The shield held for less than a tenth of a breath before shattering! The broken fragments of the shield scattered into a shower of sparks, which were then extinguished by the aftershocks of the sword aura.
Although the sword aura was weakened by the attack, its remaining power was still incredibly sharp, grazing past the rapidly retreating Soul Devourer!
“Pfft!”
Dark red demonic blood gushed from the Soul Devourer’s right shoulder like a fountain!
One of his arms, along with half of his shoulder, was severed cleanly at the root by the aftershocks of the sword aura, which contained the power of chaotic decomposition, the sharpness of the golden dragon, and the purification of earth fire. It exploded into a cloud of blood mist .
Then, it was completely shredded and evaporated by the subsequent sword intent, leaving not even a trace!
“Ah!!!”
The Soul Devourer let out an extremely miserable howl. His massive body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the rock wall hundreds of feet away, creating a deep human-shaped crater. Cracks spread across the rock wall like a spider web.
His aura instantly weakened significantly. Demonic flames flickered at the severed arm, attempting to regenerate, but they were tightly bound by a hazy gray power, preventing the wound from healing. It was the residual chaotic sword intent that continued to destroy it.
Kai was not faring much better.
While unleashing that supreme sword strike, shattering the Ten Thousand Souls Burning Heaven and severely injuring the Soul Devourer, the Soul Devourer also launched a desperate counterattack at the last moment, striking out with a palm strike from afar!
“Soul-Devouring Demonic Flame Palm!”
A condensed, almost tangible, dark red palm print seemed to pierce through space, striking Kai’s left chest the instant his old strength dissipated and his new strength was generated!
“Pfft!”
Kai was struck as if by lightning; his body shuddered violently, and a mouthful of scalding blood gushed out, most of it instantly vaporizing in the scorching air.
He was blasted backward by the force of the palm, crashing heavily against the rock wall with a dull thud.
His clothes were torn on his left chest, revealing a horrifying, charred, and festering palm print that was deep enough to expose bone!
Around the palm print, dark red demonic flames gnawed at his flesh like maggots, frantically corroding his flesh, attempting to penetrate his body and burn his meridians and soul.
Furthermore, a sinister and icy soul-devouring power surged along the wound straight into his sea of consciousness!
“Cough cough… cough cough cough…”
Kai knelt on one knee, using the Dragon-Slaying Sword for support, barely managing to stay upright.
His face was as pale as paper, and each cough brought out a large amount of bloody froth. The excruciating pain in his left chest and the icy chill of his soul being eroded caused his vision to blur.
Yet, his sword-wielding hand remained steady,
and his eyes remained as sharp as ever. The chaotic immortal power within his body was circulating at an unprecedented speed, frantically attacking the wound in his left chest, engaging in a tug-of-war with the corrosive Soul-Devouring Demonic Flame; his
Golden Dragon bloodline released a vast amount of life essence, repairing his damaged organs and bones;
while the Earth Fire True Flame burned away the invading, poisonous soul power from within.
Kai hadn’t expected that the Soul-Devouring Venerable, having just recovered to the peak of the first rank of the Upper Immortal Realm, could injure him. It seemed he had overestimated his strength.
Or perhaps the Soul-Devouring Venerable was a great demon who had lived for tens of thousands of years, and his peak first rank of the Upper Immortal Realm was stronger than other cultivators of the same realm.
That was the only possibility; Kai couldn’t believe that he, a third-rank Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivator, could be injured by a peak first-rank Upper Immortal Realm cultivator.
