Just as the Fire Spirit Star Lord was about to turn and leave, the originally clear sky suddenly changed dramatically with gathering clouds and winds.
Boom!!!
A deafening roar came from the nine heavens above, as if the heavens and earth were about to collapse.
The dark clouds that had been dispersed by the Fire Spirit Star Lord not only regrouped, but also became even denser. The entire sky was instantly enveloped in a eerie dark red hue.
“Hmm?”
The Fire Spirit Star Lord halted his steps. For the first time, a grave expression appeared on his otherwise calm face.
He slowly turned around, lifted his head to gaze at the sky, and a fleeting trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Chen Ping and the others also looked up one by one, only to see the dark red cloud layer in the sky rapidly swirling, forming a massive vortex.
Within the vortex, countless dark red lightning bolts danced wildly, emitting bursts of heart-palpitating thunderous roars.
Even more shocking was that, in the centre of the dark red vortex, a enormous black hole had appeared!
From within the black hole emanated a suffocating aura of terror, as if even light itself was about to be devoured.
“This… what is this situation?”
Zi Yuan said in shock, her voice trembling.
Wu Hao’s face was pale. “Such… such a terrifying aura! Even more frightening than the Soul Devouring Venerable!”
Ling Yue gripped her staff tightly, her eyes full of vigilance. “Could it be that another powerful demonic creature is about to appear?”
Hu Mazi shook his head, his face filled with gravity. “I don’t know, but judging from this aura, it must be an extremely terrifying entity!”
Everyone felt an inexplicable fear. Even they, who had just endured a life-and-death battle, felt an unprecedented pressure in the face of this sudden celestial phenomenon.
Whoosh!!!
At that moment, a dark red beam of light shot out from the black hole, arriving instantly above the valley.
Within the beam, a figure could vaguely be seen slowly materialising.
As the beam gradually dissipated, a middle-aged man clad in a deep red robe appeared before everyone.
This middle-aged man appeared to be around forty years old, with a handsome face carrying a hint of malevolent charm. His eyes were like two clusters of burning flames, emitting a demonic red glow.
His hair was as black as ink, yet the tips bore a trace of dark red flames.
Faint dark red flames encircled his body, and he exuded an indescribable terrifying pressure, as if even the air around him was about to ignite.
Most shocking of all was the eerie flame totem on his forehead!
The totem seemed alive, slowly writhing and emanating a heart-palpitating evil aura.
“This… this person is…”
Ling Xi said in astonishment. She could sense that the strength of this middle-aged man before her was absolutely not inferior to that of the Fire Spirit Star Lord!
Chen Ping and the others were even more dumbfounded. They had never seen such a terrifying entity.
The aura emanating from this middle-aged man was even more frightening than that of the Soul Devouring Venerable earlier!
However, what shocked them the most was the Fire Spirit Star Lord’s reaction.
His previously calm face was now etched with gravity. He clenched his fists tightly, and a trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
“Li… Li Huo Demon Lord?”
The Fire Spirit Star Lord’s voice trembled slightly, clearly recognising the person before him.
Li Huo Demon Lord?
Doubts arose in everyone’s hearts. They had never heard of this name.
But from the Fire Spirit Star Lord’s reaction, this Li Huo Demon Lord was evidently an extremely terrifying entity.
The Li Huo Demon Lord slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping across the scene like two flames, finally resting on the Fire Spirit Star Lord.
“Hehe… Fire Spirit Star Lord, long time no see.”
The Li Huo Demon Lord curled his lips into a malevolently charming smile, his voice hoarse yet filled with magnetism.
