Countless rock fragments, filled with intense heat, fell in all directions, hitting the surrounding rock walls with crackling sounds and creating sparks.
Amidst the clouds of smoke and lava vapor, a sinister shadow slowly appeared.
He was around two zhang tall, and his entire body was covered in ghastly black and red scales, as if formed from lava and blood.
This creature had a pair of dark red curved horns on its head, with faint dark red energy patterns flowing around it.
Behind him, six huge, fleshy wings slowly spread out. The wing membrane was neither skin nor flesh, but a mixture of some kind of energy and matter.
A faint red-black flame burned at the edge.
His face was clearer and more distorted than the illusion on the stone surface.
His trademark eerie green eyes now resemble two bottomless pools filled with eerie ice water.
Just a glance from him was enough to make one’s soul shudder and body stiffen.
A terrifying, dense, and seemingly weightless Immortal Realm pressure swept across the area like an erupting tsunami!
“Eternal Realm Level One!” Red Cloud Demon King gasped in astonishment.
The demon light on the demon’s body dimmed by a third, and his voice was filled with disbelief and horror: “This old demon has actually recovered to the Immortal Realm!”
Huo Ling’er groaned, feeling as if a huge rock was pressing on her chest, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Her hand holding the sword trembled slightly, and her pretty face paled.
Instinctively, she used all her strength to tightly grasp David’s hand beside her, as if he was her only support.
Facing the terrifying pressure that could make even a peak-level Heavenly God cultivator lose his cool, David stood as calm as a mountain.
The hazy, seemingly thin, and chaotic immortal power surrounding him flowed silently, like the most flexible yet most sturdy barrier.
The tremendous pressure gradually subsided and disappeared without a trace.
He even gently squeezed Huo Ling’er’s cold hand, conveying a sense of security.
Then, he raised his head and calmly looked at the Soul Devourer’s terrifying green eyes, which were burning with hatred and killing intent.
The mocking smile on his lips remained unchanged.
“Upper Immortal Realm First Rank?” David’s voice remained calm, without the slightest emotional fluctuation.
“No wonder his breath is noisier than the smell of athlete’s foot.”
“But……”
He fell silent, his disgust almost overflowing: “You think that just because you have recovered to the Immortal Realm, you can act haughty in front of me?”
“Soul Devourer, have you been underground for too long? Is your brain damaged by the lava?”
“Or perhaps your cultivation in the Immortal Realm was inflated like a balloon due to absorbing the poisonous earth fire, just appearance without substance?”
“presumptuous!!!”
With overflowing fury, the Soul Devourer roared like the cry of thousands of abused souls, shaking the entire ravine and resounding loudly!
When had he ever been humiliated in such a way?
Moreover, it came from a junior whose cultivation level was much lower than him!
“David! Today I will show you the difference between immortals and ordinary people, and what absolute power really is!”
“I will tear you apart piece by piece, pluck out your soul, and roast it in devil flames for ten thousand years, so that you will desire death but not live!”
Its six wings suddenly flapped!
“explosion!”
Dark red demonic energy spread out like an explosion, and the terrifying pressure of the Upper Immortal Realms surged again.
The pressure felt so real that it even made the air creak under its own weight.
The calmer lava river below was suddenly engulfed by towering waves.
The stone walls on both sides cracked and broke, revealing countless gaps resembling spider webs.
Huo Ling’er and Chi Yun Mojun couldn’t hold on anymore and were forced to take several steps back because of the aura.
The blood and qi inside my body churned, and I almost vomited blood.
David, who was right in the center of the terrifying aura, had his blue robes fluttering in the wind and his black hair dancing wildly amidst the strong gusts, but his figure remained as steadfast as a rock.
He didn’t even frown, but the chaotic immortal power around him circulated a little faster.
Just that?
David even tilted his head and asked in an almost innocent and curious tone.
The disdain in his eyes was so strong that it couldn’t be hidden: “The pressure of a first level Immortal Realm cultivator? It feels less powerful than the wind from the stove in the Earth Fire Pavilion’s kitchen.”
“Soul Devourer, you didn’t buy your Immortal Realm, right? How many Soul Coins did you spend?”
