The Demon Spirit Venerable's gaze was fixed on Qin Chen as he approached step by step. Dark demonic energy spread beneath his feet, turning everything it touched into a paradise of demonic aura.
In the world, the demonic energy surged, wisps coursing through the air like a cloud of starry mist descending. Although these strands of demonic energy appeared light as a feather, each one bore the weight of a mountain, capable of shattering the universe's dome and piercing through time and space.
The Demon Spirit Venerable continued his advance toward Qin Chen, his eyes filled with arrogance and superiority, much like a king surveying his subjects.
Although Qin Chen was strong enough to slay both the Melting Flame Venerable and the Falling Star Venerable, in the eyes of the Demon Spirit Venerable, he was merely a junior, a descendant.
"Boom!"
As the Demon Spirit Venerable walked toward Qin Chen, a scene of black phantoms sliced through the sky, directly pressuring Qin Chen.
"Come on."
In an instant, a Mysterious Rusty Sword appeared in Qin Chen's hand.
"Old man, you've devoured so much; it's time for you to wake up and put in some effort."
The Yuanmo Ancestor appeared, instantly making Qin Chen realize that he might have been exposed. In this situation, he could no longer care about revealing himself. He immediately activated the Mysterious Rusty Sword and surged forward in a flash of light.
"Sword River!"
Boom! Qin Chen's true dragon body expanded, reaching over ten thousand feet tall, followed by a release of endless primordial chaos energy. A terrifying true dragon phantom appeared in the heavens, its dragon might permeating the atmosphere, causing the sky to collapse.
Infinite true dragon sword qi surrounded Qin Chen, with the Sword Binding Ring and Phantom Armlet urging the true dragon power to its peak. The sky was filled with millions of true dragon sword qi, all madly surging into the Mysterious Rusty Sword in Qin Chen's hand.
Clang! The sword qi shot into the sky, and the Mysterious Rusty Sword in Qin Chen's hand suddenly shone brightly, emanating a dark and profound aura that exuded a sharpness capable of penetrating everything in the universe.
"Cut!"
Qin Chen unleashed his strongest move, the burning primordial energy pouring into the Mysterious Rusty Sword. The sword released a black sword qi that shot toward the Demon Spirit Venerable, creating a twisted vortex beneath its terrifying light, shredding the surrounding space.
The overwhelming power caused the five major experts of the Demon Tribe in the distance to change their expressions.
Meanwhile, the two Demon Banners held by the Demon Spirit Venerable suddenly reacted, sounding like thunderclaps — boom! Two streaks of black light shot forth, transforming into a towering demon god phantom, which collided with the Mysterious Rusty Sword. Their powerful energies clashed, causing a black hole to form in the void of the Myriad Races Battlefield, with swirling spatial particles madly streaming into it, like a demon's mouth devouring everything.
With a bang, Qin Chen was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood; he was injured.
A terrifying shockwave surged into Qin Chen's body, causing his dragon scales to shatter, blood pouring out, leaving him in an incredibly miserable state.
Boom! The impact nearly tore his body apart.
"How strong!"
Qin Chen was both shocked and furious, realizing that the Demon Spirit Venerable's power far surpassed that of the Melting Flame Venerable. Though both were Venerables, they were not on the same level at all.
If it weren't for the Heavenly Emperor Armor absorbing most of the impact, that single blow alone would have shattered Qin Chen's body to dust.
"Is this the terrifying power of a pinnacle heaven venerable?"
Fear gripped Qin Chen's heart as pain coursed through his body, every cell feeling as though it might shatter.
"Oh? You blocked it? Interesting. Then take another move from me."
In the distance, the Demon Spirit Venerable squinted at Qin Chen, surprise flickering in his eyes before he laughed, a brilliant smile on his face. "No wonder you could kill the Melting Flame Venerable. You have some merit. You're the first non-venerable I've encountered who could withstand my attack. Just for that, you are worthy of being listed among the universe's top experts."
