Soul Devourer knew that he was no match for the Fire Spirit Star Lord.
Seeing the Soul Eater, who was previously so arrogant and had beaten them all up, now so humble and frightened, David’s pent-up frustration and anger finally found an outlet!
He forcefully suppressed the pain in his body, straightened his back, and despite being covered in blood and looking extremely messy, his face once again flashed an annoying mocking smile as he launched a series of attacks at the Soul Devourer, who was wailing under the starlight:
“Isn’t this arrogant old dog who called himself a Heavenly Venerable? Why did he become so weak after just a few minutes? Wasn’t he just about to rip out my soul and burn me for ten thousand years? Didn’t he call us worms and ants?”
“What’s wrong with you? Why are you shaking? Alas, your soul is so fragile, like tattered rags. It might be blown away by the wind.”
“Where did your arrogance go? Show it to Senior Fire Spirit Star King!”
“Oh, I forgot, you only dared to bark a few times in front of us ants. When you saw a truly important person, you immediately became a helpless coward! You have truly humiliated a heavenly being!”
“Still begging for mercy? You know how to beg for mercy now? Where were you before? Let me say, it’s too late!”
“An evil and extremely depraved old bastard like you deserves to be captured by Senior Fire Spirit Star King and burned alive! No, burned alive inside the soul lamp! He will burn you for ten thousand years!”
David cursed so hard that his spit almost hit the Soul Eater in the face.
He vented all his frustration from being beaten to the point of questioning his existence, his anger at seeing his friend injured, and his relief from escaping a desperate situation into this barrage of sarcastic words.
The Soul Devourer’s soul stirred from the scolding, and his ghostly green flames blazed wildly, clearly showing that he was about to explode with rage.
But under the purifying light of the starry sky and the supreme majesty of the Lord of the Stars, he dared not say a word.
He could only lower his head and endure the humiliating insults. The hatred he felt for David was so strong that not even the waters of the Underworld River could wash it away.
Old Hei struggled to lift his head from the deep hole. Seeing this scene, he grinned, his mouth full of blood. He wanted to laugh, but the pain aggravated his wounds, so he could only make a strange “croaking” sound.
The other injured dragons also felt greatly relieved; Master Chen’s words are truly a weapon of truth!
The figure of the Fire Spirit Star Lord in the starry sky seemed unaffected by David’s rude argument. His blurry face remained expressionless as he calmly spoke again, stating the fate of Soul Devouring Heavenly Venerate:
“Stubborn and unforgivable. In the name of the stars, purify it!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the starlight pillar that penetrated the heavens and the earth suddenly became even more dazzling and dense!
Its purification power had increased more than tenfold!
The Soul Eater let out a final, desperate wail. His soul, like a lump of ice thrown into a steel furnace, was rapidly shrinking and fading, on the verge of being completely purified and returning to nothingness!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; this difficult and brutal battle finally ended in this unexpected way.
However, just when everyone thought the situation had calmed down—
“BOOM-!!!”
Above the Burial Abyss, beside the gap opened by the pillar of starlight.
Without warning, another spatial rift, deeper and fiercer, burned by raging black devil flames, was forcibly opened by an incomparably tyrannical force!
A terrifying pressure, scorching hot, fierce, and filled with an aura of destruction and chaos, swept out from the newly appeared cracks like a tsunami, instantly negating the sense of holiness and purification brought by the pillar of starlight!
