“Hahaha…” The Soul Devouring Venerable let out a burst of mad laughter, his eyes full of pride and cruelty. “All of you are going to die! No one can stop me!”
Outside the palace, the shouts and cries of the demon cultivator army grew closer, two hundred thousand demon souls plus tens of thousands of demon cultivators surging like a tide, surrounding the entire palace.
Black demonic energy soared into the sky, merging with the dark clouds above, the whole Divine Capital City enveloped in a sinister and terrifying atmosphere.
“This is your fate!” The Soul Devouring Venerable sneered. “Today, not only will you die, but everyone in the Sixth Heaven will die! No one can stop me!”
Everyone looked at the Soul Devouring Venerable, their hearts filled with despair.
They knew that today they might really die here, and the Sixth Heaven might really be finished.
At that moment, Ling Xi suddenly struggled to her feet, she wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her gaze firmly fixed on the Soul Devouring Venerable. “Soul Devouring Venerable, even if we die here today, you won’t get away with whatever you want! One day, someone will come to deal with you!”
The Soul Devouring Venerable’s face was full of disdain. “Unfortunately, you won’t live to see that day!”
With that, the Soul Devouring Venerable released powerful demonic energy around him, bombarding towards Ling Xi and the others.
Everyone looked at the oncoming demonic energy, their hearts filled with despair.
The palace walls began to crack under the impact of the demonic energy, tiles from the roof fell one after another, the entire palace trembling violently, as if it could collapse at any moment.
Outside, the demon cultivator army let out cheers, they knew victory was at hand.
Inside the palace, Ling Xi, Chen Ping, Wu Hao, Ling Yue, Zi Yuan, and the others stood back to back, their faces etched with despair, but their eyes still flickering with unyielding light.
The situation had developed to this point, something no one could have anticipated.
“Lad, you’re no match for that Soul Devouring Venerable, let me handle it, I might be able to hold him off for a while, you get the others to escape quickly…”
At that moment, the long-silent Red Cloud Demon Lord suddenly spoke.
Hearing the Red Cloud Demon Lord’s voice, Chen Ping was overjoyed. “Senior, why have you been silent all this time, not saying a word? I couldn’t find any trace of you in my sea of consciousness, what exactly happened?”
“Don’t say anything now, if I can survive, I’ll naturally explain it to you, first hand over control of your body to me.”
The Red Cloud Demon Lord said anxiously!
Chen Ping nodded, quickly dispersing his divine sense, allowing the Red Cloud Demon Lord in his sea of consciousness to take control of his body.
Accompanied by a black mist enveloping Chen Ping, Chen Ping’s entire aura changed.
His eyes turned scarlet, terrifying demonic energy erupting from his body.
Seeing Chen Ping’s sudden change, everyone felt incredibly shocked, only Hu Mazi knew that Chen Ping was being controlled by the Red Cloud Demon Lord again.
Facing the oncoming demonic energy from the Soul Devouring Venerable, Chen Ping swung the Dragon Slaying Sword in his hand, the demonic energy was directly severed, then vanished without a trace.
The Soul Devouring Venerable was stunned, then his eyes filled with surprise. “Red Cloud? You old fellow aren’t dead yet?”
“You’re not dead, so why should I be?” Chen Ping sneered.
“Hahaha… Even if you’re not dead, you’re just a wisp of soul, only able to parasitize in someone else’s body, someone like you still wants to oppose me?”
“Even if your physical body was intact, you weren’t my match back then, now you’re just a wisp of soul, even less so.”
The Soul Devouring Venerable laughed loudly.
They were both demon cultivators from the Ninth Heaven, they knew each other, so as soon as the Red Cloud Demon Lord took control of Chen Ping’s body, the Soul Devouring Venerable recognized him.
“I don’t need to be your match, I just need to entangle you…”
With that, Chen Ping instantly charged forward with the Dragon Slaying Sword in hand, as he charged, he shouted to Ling Xi and the others. “You all leave quickly…”
