Then, it moved once again, the killing intent even stronger.

Shh! The sword light flickered, and no one could see how the stone statue's corpse moved, yet a sword struck the body of the Abyss Demon Ancestor.

Puff! The sword light pierced through, and the Abyss Demon Ancestor immediately let out an angry roar. Brilliant demon light runes burst apart, but this was merely an energy clone, not the main body. Therefore, it only stirred the demon light, with bursts of demonic particles radiating outward, carrying terrifying destructive power.

Moreover, a dark aura surged.

"Dark power? Demon Ancestor, you really are regressing more and more. You have actually fused dark power into your being. You should know that this is not a power of our realm. If you cannot control it, you will surely face backlash," a cold voice echoed.

"Hmph, as long as it is strong enough. You and I both know the hardships of cultivation. To reach the end, every step is filled with great terror. No one knows what lies at the end of the cultivation path, and there are numerous giants who have fallen along the way. Who can laugh at whom?" the Abyss Demon Ancestor snorted coldly.

He threw a punch; with a clang, sparks flew, the sound was piercing, as if gold was being split and stone shattered, hitting the stone statue's corpse!

However, it shocked everyone slightly. This time, the stone statue’s corpse did not shatter.

Strange powers surged from it, withstanding the punch, the black shimmering light flickered, it was too solid.

"Mm?!" Everyone was astonished. What power is this? It seemed to lack any discernible attribute, as if it did not conform to the laws of heaven.

"You have also taken an alternative cultivation path?" The Abyss Demon Ancestor exclaimed in surprise, his gaze dark and cold. His punch was absolutely peerless. It could be imagined that if it were another opponent, they would not be able to withstand it and would surely be blasted to pieces! But this corpse in front of him resisted, and this corpse, in its previous life, was merely an ordinary Venerable, having not decayed for ten thousand years, its internal power long exhausted. The previous stone statue's corpse had been shattered like this, but now, the opponent was holding on. That power was dark, strange, yet terrifyingly strong.

"Being trapped for billions of years, surely you should have some contemplation!" the stone statue's corpse said coldly, suddenly drawing its sword.

Whoosh! The sword light flickered, a black aura surged forth, appearing like lightning from nowhere. With a puff, it directly struck the head of the Abyss Demon Ancestor.

Clang!

The terrifying magic power roared, and everyone was horrified, unable to believe their eyes, for this sword was too fast. The divine light had already flashed past, and now a desolate sword energy was permeating, expanding, causing the nearby cosmic space to be severed!

In the distance, several Venerables were dumbfounded. Was this real? Did they just witness the Abyss Demon Ancestor nearly behead by a corpse?

This sword was extremely fierce, cutting into the head of the Abyss Demon Ancestor, nearly severing his head entirely.

Boom!

At this moment, the Abyss Demon Ancestor was different. The magic energy exploded; even if it was a clone, the magic light rose to the heavens like a primordial demon god resurrecting. His eyes were cold and ruthless, fixed on the stone statue's corpse.

At the same time, the magic symbols in his pupils flickered, various energy bodies manifesting around him, emanating dark substances.

Around him, dark auras began to rise, causing the heavens and earth to produce a strong repulsion, dropping threads of alien divine chains.

In front of him, black magic lotuses spread all over, taking root in the void.

Shh! Shh! Shh!

He struck, much more terrifying than before, the sky filled with black petals, the magic lotuses blooming, flying out, spinning, deep and dazzling.

In that instant, the heavens roared, the great path trembled, everything was under the suppression of the Abyss Demon Ancestor. The black petals danced, beautiful and resplendent, yet filled with a deadly threat.
