“That’s what Huo Ling’er said.”
The Red Cloud Demon Lord did not sit down, but instead looked around vigilantly, his three pairs of eyes observing every corner where danger might be hiding.
Its heavy demon body seemed somewhat sluggish under the intense heat. He nodded after hearing this, his voice low and deep: “I feel the same way.”
“Moreover, this aura I feel like I’ve encountered somewhere before; cold, greedy, like a poisonous snake hiding in the shadows.”
David remained silent.
He stood at the edge of the platform, looking down at the roiling river of dark red lava beneath him, his brows furrowed.
After breaking through to the third rank of the Immortal Lord Realm, his divine sense underwent a qualitative change. Not only could it cover a wider range, but his perception of energy and aura had also become sharper and refined.
At this moment, he secretly circulated his Chaos Immortal Power, and his divine consciousness spread out in all directions from him like countless invisible tentacles.
It penetrated every inch of the rock wall, every gap, feeling the subtle fluctuations hidden by the high temperature and chaotic energy.
The roar of flowing magma, the faint cracking sound of rocks due to the intense heat, and the occasional roar of unknown creatures from the depths
He filtered and analyzed countless sounds and energy fluctuations.
Suddenly, his divine sense detected something unusual.
Behind an ordinary-looking rock wall, about three hundred feet to the left of the front, an ethereal yet extraordinary and terrifying energy was slowly rising.
He deeply understood the nature of that energy; that energy carried hatred and greed that came from the depths of his soul.
“There is indeed something…” David suddenly opened his eyes.
A sharp and cold glint radiated from his deep eyes, as if they were able to penetrate a thick layer of rock.
“Dandia is an old acquaintance of ours here.”
Once he finished speaking, it was as if he confirmed his words.
“Clickclick click”
The stone wall in front of him, which he had locked onto with his divine sense, suddenly emitted a strange sound.
Those dark red hard rocks that were originally covered in traces of melting now seemed alive, and began to squirm and undulate unnaturally!
The texture on the surface of the stone twisted and changed shape, and the color deepened, quickly forming the contours of facial features.
In the blink of an eye, a huge, twisted, and hideous human face grew on the stone wall!
The face almost covered half the cliff face, and the eye sockets were two bottomless black holes.
At that moment, two sinister green flames suddenly ignited, leaping and flickering like ghostly lights.
Its mouth stretched into a very strange arc, revealing jagged teeth that were also made of stone.
That’s the iconic face of the Soul Devourer!
“Hehehe”
A shrill laugh, like the rubbing of rusty iron or the rubbing of countless pieces of sandpaper against the ears, came out of the giant’s mouth.
Laughter echoed in the narrow ravine, adding to the eerie and eerie atmosphere.
“David, it’s true what people say, we never know where we will meet someone in life.”
“I didn’t expect we would meet again so soon.”
“It seems like even the Heavenly Dao is on my side and will lay this great gift on my lips.”
Huo Ling’er and the Scarlet Cloud Demon Lord felt the hairs on the back of their necks stand up and immediately went from rest to maximum alert.
Huo Ling’er unsheathed her crimson long sword, the blade burning with scorching earth fire.
With a low roar, the Red Cloud Demon Lord released his demon body, and his ferocious form with three heads and six arms reappeared.
The demonic weapons in the six hands buzzed and surged with demonic energy.
Only David remained standing in the same place, without even drawing his sword.
He only tilted his head slightly, calmly looking at the giant ghost face on the stone wall with a scrutinizing, even slightly mocking gaze.
That gaze didn’t seem like he was looking at the demon king that was feared ten thousand years ago; rather it’s more like watching a bad actor act.
“Soul Devourer,” David said, his voice not loud, but clear through the ear-splitting laughter.
In a cold tone, he said, “Your life is indeed several degrees more difficult than that of a cockroach.”
“They fled from Ninth Heaven like wild dogs to Tenth Heaven, then fled from Tenth Heaven to this place in a panic.”
“What, this terrifying place in the Earth’s Core, where the sun never shines and there is only lava and poisonous fire, does this place match your identity as a lonely ghost who has wandered for ten thousand years?”
“It seems that your taste, like your appearance, is nothing special.”
