During these three days, Chen Ping had been guarding beside the Demon Suppressing Tower, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
He knew that Soul Devouring Venerable could send people to hunt them down at any time.
Finally, on the evening of the third day, the Demon Suppressing Tower suddenly emitted a burst of dazzling light.
Immediately after, Ling Xi, Wu Hao, Ling Yue, Zi Yuan, and the others walked out of the tower one by one.
They all had powerful auras, full of energy. Clearly, they had fully recovered from their injuries, and their strength had even improved.
“We’re recovered!”
Zi Yuan said excitedly. “And my strength has improved a lot!”
Wu Hao also said with a smile. “That’s right. I’m now at the third grade of Human Immortal Realm!”
Everyone heard this and excitedly discussed their gains.
Having cultivated in the Demon Suppressing Tower for three hundred days, their strength had greatly improved.
Ling Xi also checked her injuries, a satisfied smile on her face. “My injuries have fully recovered, and my strength has returned to ninety percent of my peak.”
Just as everyone was extremely excited, a huge rumbling sound suddenly came from the sky.
Immediately after, a powerful aura came from the distance, the entire valley trembling violently.
Everyone’s expressions changed, and they all looked up at the sky.
In the sky, dark clouds gathered densely. Countless black demonic souls and demon cultivators emerged from the cloud layers, swarming like locusts, surrounding the entire valley tightly.
At the forefront of these demonic souls and demon cultivators, a figure in a black long robe hovered in mid-air. It was Soul Devouring Venerable, who had fully recovered to his peak strength!
“Hahaha. Did you think I couldn’t find you by hiding here?”
Soul Devouring Venerable laughed wildly, his voice full of disdain. “Today, let’s see where you can escape to!”
Everyone looked at the dense demonic souls and demon cultivators in the sky, despair appearing on their faces.
Although they had recovered from their injuries and their strength had improved, facing Soul Devouring Venerable and hundreds of thousands of demonic souls and demon cultivators, they had no chance of winning.
“It seems we’re really going to die here today.” Wu Hao said with a bitter smile.
Ling Yue also nodded, a calm expression on her face. “To fight alongside everyone until the last moment, I have no regrets.”
Zi Yuan tightly gripped the long sword in her hand, her eyes full of determination. “Even if I die, I’ll fight them!”
Ling Xi looked at Soul Devouring Venerable in the sky, a grave expression on her face. “Everyone, don’t give up. We still have hope!”
However, everyone knew this was just Ling Xi comforting them.
Facing such a powerful enemy, they had no hope at all.
Everyone stood back to back, tightly gripping their weapons, prepared to fight until the last moment.
In the valley, the atmosphere was extremely tense.
“Since we’re going to die anyway, let’s fight him.”
Wuji Daoist prepared to desperately fight Soul Devouring Venerable.
But he suddenly discovered that he couldn’t move, suppressed by an invisible force.
Everyone felt a terrifying aura suppressing them. They couldn’t move at all, let alone desperately fight Soul Devouring Venerable.
Soul Devouring Venerable hovered in mid-air, his black robe fluttering without wind, his body emanating a suffocating terrifying aura.
He looked at the immobile crowd below, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his mouth. “Ants are ultimately ants. Even if I give you a chance to cultivate, you’re fundamentally no match for me.”
Everyone struggled desperately, but it was as if they were locked by invisible shackles. Forget fighting, they couldn’t even move a finger.
The spiritual power in their bodies was like frozen, completely unable to be mobilized.
“Hahaha. Have you felt the despair?”
Soul Devouring Venerable laughed wildly. “This is the gap in absolute strength! In front of me, you don’t even have the qualification to resist!”
