Martial Master

The Soul Demon Venerable's gaze emitted a chilling light.

The explosive force of the secret realm was terrifying beyond measure, capable of annihilating any late-stage Saint Master level expert. Even the strongest would be unable to survive; in fact, he himself would not have been able to endure the explosion unless he was at his peak.

Therefore, although he was aware that Qin Chen's physical defense was incredibly formidable, nearly invincible, he remained confident that Qin Chen would not be able to escape.

"Cough, cough, it really is cheap for that brat. Unfortunately, his physical body might have been destroyed. This child is truly an excellent vessel; if I could seize it, it would be far more powerful than this body of the Demon Tribe's Alchemist Master."

The Soul Demon Venerable lamented Qin Chen's downfall.

"Fortunately, treasures like the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree won't easily vanish; it should still be preserved. I must hurry and seize the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree at the earliest opportunity. I am currently severely injured, not much stronger than an ordinary late-stage Saint Master. If I am discovered, it might be extremely troublesome."

"Once I obtain the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree, my recovery speed will definitely increase tenfold, a hundredfold."

The Soul Demon Venerable sat cross-legged, an invisible soul light emanated from him, transforming into intricate runes. The ancient and obscure symbol light flickered throughout the world as he calculated Qin Chen's existence, aiming to seize the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree from him.

"Hmm? Someone is calculating my position?"

Within the Qiankun Transformation Jade Dish, Qin Chen suddenly opened his eyes. Before him appeared a dark river of fate. From that river, he saw a pair of cold, dark eyes, seemingly searching for something, looking for him.

The moment Qin Chen opened his eyes, he immediately locked gazes with those cold eyes.

"Hmph, it's that Soul Demon Venerable. How dare he probe my location."

Qin Chen sneered, activating the Law of Fate. Instantly, an invisible force of fate surged out, merging into those eye pupils.

In the hidden void, the Soul Demon Venerable, who was calculating Qin Chen's position, suddenly opened his eyes, revealing an expression of terror, as he coughed out a mouthful of blood.

"Damn, that brat is still alive?"

His hair stood on end, a strong sense of danger enveloped him, making his scalp tingle, as if his body was about to explode.

"How is this possible? That explosion could even kill a peak late-stage Saint Master! Unless one is a Venerable level expert who has transcended the heavenly realm, they cannot remain unaffected. How did this brat survive?"

The Soul Demon Venerable was filled with dread and apprehension, vaguely seeing that Qin Chen was in a very safe place, staring at him. That gaze instilled an endless fear in him, as if he were being watched by the master of heaven and earth.

He wiped his forehead, drenched in cold sweat, as if he had just escaped a nightmare.

This is sinister.

The Soul Demon Venerable felt a chill in his heart; it was truly uncanny that he had failed to kill that brat. He sensed that the other party was seemingly staring at him, also searching for him. He never expected to directly confront him.

Is there anything more foolish than this in the world?

Hurry, hurry, hurry.

He needed to leave this place quickly.

The Soul Demon Venerable felt alarmed and instantly departed from his original location, no longer daring to linger.

He flew rapidly through the void, but this was the Human Race's Void Tide Sea. Where could he go? Right now, he urgently needed to absorb a large amount of life and power to replenish himself, heal his wounds, and enhance his strength. However, this was the territory of the Human Race. If he slaughtered too many humans, not to mention being detected by Qin Chen, he would attract the attention of the top Venerable level experts of the Human Race, and then he would be completely finished.

"It seems I must find a way back to the Demon Realm."
