He slowly descended in front of everyone, his gaze sweeping over each person, finally stopping on Chen Ping. “Boy, I see you have good talent, and also dragon clan bloodline. How about submitting to me? Follow me, and I guarantee you can obtain better resources than in the God King Palace. In the future, you might even have the chance to break through above the Ninth Heaven!”
Chen Ping glared angrily at the Soul Devouring Venerable, his eyes full of disdain. “Submit to you? You are not worthy! Evil demons like you will sooner or later be struck by heavenly thunder! Even if I, Chen Ping, die, I will never collude with you!”
“Insolent!”
The Soul Devouring Venerable’s face darkened, a trace of killing intent flashing in his eyes. “Refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit! Since you want to die so much, I will fulfil you!”
With that, the Soul Devouring Venerable raised his hand to condense a ball of black demonic light, preparing to completely annihilate Chen Ping and the others.
At this critical moment, a strange change suddenly appeared in the sky.
The originally dim sky was instantly enveloped in a fiery red, as if the entire world was burning.
An indescribable heat wave swept in from the horizon, even causing the demonic energy released by the Soul Devouring Venerable to fluctuate violently.
“Hmm?”
The Soul Devouring Venerable frowned, stopped his action, and looked up at the sky.
Everyone also looked up, only to see a brilliant flame shooting from the horizon. That flame streaked across the sky like a meteor, carrying a destructive might, and instantly arrived above the valley.
Within the flame, a figure could vaguely be seen.
As the flame gradually dissipated, an old man with white hair, dressed in a fiery red robe, slowly appeared.
The old man had white hair but a youthful face, an ancient countenance, his eyes like two burning fireballs, emanating a majestic yet benevolent light.
He was surrounded by faint flames, stepping on a lotus flower condensed from flames, his entire being exuding an indescribable sacred aura.
Seeing this suddenly appearing white-haired old man, everyone was stunned.
They had never seen such a peculiar person, nor did they know the old man’s origin.
But from the aura emanating from the old man, he was absolutely an extremely powerful existence.
Upon seeing this old man, Chen Ping’s eyes widened in shock, utterly astonished.
Because he recognised that this old man was the Fire Spirit Star Lord who had taught him the Fire Control Steps, the old fellow who had turned and left without a word.
Chen Ping had not expected that the Fire Spirit Star Lord would come to the Sixth Heaven.
The Soul Devouring Venerable’s expression became solemn. He could feel that this white-haired old man’s strength was absolutely not inferior to his own, and might even be stronger!
“Who are you?”
The Soul Devouring Venerable asked in a deep voice, the demonic energy in his body beginning to surge wildly, ready for battle at any time.
The white-haired old man slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping over the entire scene like two flames, finally stopping on the Soul Devouring Venerable.
“I am the Fire Spirit Star Lord.”
The old man’s voice resounded like a great bell, carrying an unquestionable majesty. “Junior, you are causing chaos here, harming living beings. Do you know your crime?”
Fire Spirit Star Lord?
Everyone was puzzled in their hearts. They had never heard of this name.
But from the fiery aura on the old man, he was obviously a powerful existence related to flames.
The Soul Devouring Venerable’s face changed. He seemed to recall something, his eyes narrowing slightly. “Fire Spirit Star Lord? Could you be… that one from the Flame Mountain in the Ninth Heaven?”
“Were you not disappeared tens of thousands of years ago, having gone to a higher heavenly realm?”
The Fire Spirit Star Lord smiled faintly. “I did not expect that you, this junior, have heard of my name. Since you know, why not surrender without resistance?”
“Hahaha… Even if you are the Fire Spirit Star Lord from the Ninth Heaven, so what?” The Soul Devouring Venerable suddenly laughed wildly. “This is the Sixth Heaven, not the Ninth Heaven. It is not a place you should meddle in!”
“Even in the Ninth Heaven, you are just a legend from before the Ninth Heaven. When I return to the Ninth Heaven, what do you count for!”
“You dare to call me junior repeatedly. Do you really think I am afraid of you?”
