Chapter 5678The cheers within the Yama Heavenly Sect’s main hall abruptly ceased, as if choked by an invisible giant hand.The Soul Devourer slowly rose, making no exaggerated movements; simply standing there, the center of the entire world seemed to shift to him.The oppressive aura emanating from the burly man earlier was already terrifying, but compared to the Soul Devourer now, it was like a firefly to the moon, a stream to the vast ocean!noveldrama“Rumble—”Outside the hall, the sky, already gloomy from the demonic energy, now completely darkened.Thick, inky clouds gathered wildly, churning and swirling, not flashing with lightning, but revealing countless twisted, wailing faces of vengeful spirits, emitting piercing screams.A biting, eerie wind howled into the dilapidated hall, whipping at the clothes of those present and freezing their very bones.The space around the Soul Devourer began to distort and blur, as if he were standing in another, independent demonic realm, overlapping with reality yet completely out of place.The murderous aura and demonic power, accumulated over millennia and formed from the slaughter of countless lives, surged like a tangible tsunami, wave after wave crashing against everyone’s mental defenses.“Thump… thump…”Some of the weaker disciples of the Yama Heavenly Sect couldn’t even utter a scream before their eyes rolled back, their minds collapsed, and they fainted under this indescribable, terrifying pressure. Some even bled from all seven orifices, their breath fading.Even a powerful expert like Yan Nantian, a third-grade Celestial Immortal, felt as if a towering mountain was pressing down on his shoulders. His bones creaked under the unbearable weight, and he had to exert all his demonic energy to barely stand, his face as pale as paper.Liu Xue let out a muffled groan. Her face, which had just recovered slightly due to David’s victory, turned deathly pale again. Her delicate body trembled slightly, and she only managed to stay upright by leaning on her longsword for support.She felt her very soul trembling—an instinctive fear brought about by the absolute difference in their life levels.The entire hall, no, the entire gate of the Yama Heavenly Sect, trembled under this demonic power, as if it would completely collapse and turn to dust at any moment .only David remained!He was at the forefront, bearing the brunt of the Soul Devourer’s will lock and oppressive force.The ground beneath his feet cracked inch by inch, spreading spiderweb-like fissures, and the blood that had just stopped flowing from the corner of his mouth uncontrollably spilled out again.But he still stood tall, like an unyielding spear, firmly rooted to the spot.The Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand emitted a high-pitched yet tragic dragon’s roar, its light flickering, as if waging an unyielding struggle against the most evil and malevolent forces in the world.David’s eyes were as sharp as ever, even more focused than before. He knew clearly that the real test of life and death had only just begun.All the previous battles were merely appetizers. Facing this infamous demon who had been fearsome for ten thousand years, capable of destroying even the Heavenly Gate in a single night, he harbored no illusions.“To die by my hand is the highest honor for an ant like you.”The Soul Devourer spoke, his voice calm yet carrying a cold indifference, a judgment of life and death. He slowly raised his right hand, his fingers slightly spread, and gently pressed it against David.There was no grand display, no dazzling light.But the instant his palm touched the ground, the space within a ten-zhang radius of David suddenly froze!No, not just space, but also the light, sound, spiritual energy, and even… time itself, all seemed to be forcibly frozen by an invisible hand!David’s expression changed drastically!He felt as if he were trapped inside amber weighing billions of tons, every movement becoming incredibly difficult, even his thoughts seemed to freeze!
