A Contest of Demonic Flames

Lin Langtian and his group joined forces, and the five of them almost transformed into five beams of light, quickly passing through the Devouring Army. Wherever they went, they had a kind of unstoppable momentum.

"There are spatial fluctuations ahead; we need to break through."

As he charged forward, Lin Langtian suddenly had a thought. He looked up and saw that the Devouring Army in the distance had finally come to an end.

There, a Black Light Circle slowly rotated; that was the true path to the cave!

Seeing this, Lin Langtian grabbed Mu Lingshan and led Liu Da and the other two, bursting out from the gap that appeared in front of them. Then, like a roc, they soared through the air and headed straight for the Black Light Circle.

"Brother Lin, you've arrived quickly. However, let's go in first and scout ahead."

Just as Lin Langtian was about to rush into the Black Light Circle, a loud laugh suddenly came from the side, followed by a series of whooshing sounds. Then, an extremely sharp gust of wind mercilessly attacked Lin Langtian's back.

"Ao Xuan!"

Upon hearing the laughter, Lin Langtian's eyes flashed with cold light. He clenched his fist, unleashing a surge of immense power, and then threw a punch in reversal.

Boom!

With a single punch, the air seemed to compress and explode beneath his fist, unleashing a scorching gust of wind that roared out from under Lin Langtian's fist before colliding violently with the gust of wind.

Bang!

A deep, resounding explosion echoed through the air, and the violent ripples repelled several more Black Armor Light Shadow that were rushing towards them.

At the same time, Lin Langtian group gracefully retreated and then landed directly into the Black Light Circle.

"Haha, sorry, we'll be going now!"

As he descended towards the circle of light, Lin Langtian turned around, laughed at the large group of the Deep Sea Profound Flood Dragon Clan soldiers rushing towards him from behind, and then his figure fell into the circle of light under Ao Xuan's sinister face, quickly disappearing from sight.

"Chase!"

When Ao Xuan saw Lin Langtian arrive first, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes. With a cold snort, he led a large number of men and quickly rushed into the circle of light.

Behind them, powerful individuals also began to break through the Black Light Battlefield and rush towards the light circle.

The instant he rushed into the light circle, Lin Langtian could clearly feel a powerful spatial fluctuation emanating from it. Deep black light filled his eyes. After a while, as he gradually adjusted, Lin Langtian slowly opened his eyes.

He opened his eyes, and the scene before him immediately came into view. Then, a brief moment of blankness appeared in Lin Langtian's eyes.

What appeared before Lin Langtian was an extremely vast land, with numerous clusters of palaces and pavilions on it.

However, most of these palaces are now ruins, but judging from the scale of the ruins, it is still easy to see the magnificence and grandeur of the place when it was intact.

The entire land was a gray and desolate color, with an air of decay permeating the space. The vicissitudes and antiquity mixed in made it clear that this land had been devoid of life for a long time.

"Bro Langtian, is this the cave? It looks so dilapidated. What treasures could there be here?" Mu Lingshan muttered, her big eyes fixed on the ruined land.

Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Let's go and search around first. A cave of this size should yield some results."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took off first. This time, he slowed down considerably. He flew through the air, his gaze sweeping across the ruins of the palaces below.

As Lin Langtian continued his journey, he was able to see many traces of a great battle. It seemed that a tremendous battle, or even a war, had indeed taken place here back then.

"To be able to destroy such a force, it must have been the work of the Evil Demon..." Lin Langtian thought to himself. Only the Evil Demon could destroy a force with a Reincarnation Stage expert in charge.

Moreover, the owner of this Reincarnation Cave Mansion was once a master of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian's expression became much more solemn. There might still be remnants of the Evil Demon within this Reincarnation Cave Mansion...

"Bro Langtian, look ahead!"

As Lin Langtian became wary, Mu Lingshan suddenly spoke up, pointing ahead with her little finger to a dilapidated square. There, she could vaguely see figures.

Lin Langtian looked over, his eyes narrowed slightly, he told Mu Lingshan to be careful, then gradually slowed down and finally stopped in mid-air in the dilapidated square.

As they approached, Lin Langtian discovered that nearly a thousand figures were sitting cross-legged on the vast, dilapidated square. However, these figures had lost all vitality; their bodies were covered in dust and they looked withered.

Lin Langtian hovered in the air, watching this scene with a solemn expression. He noticed that everyone was facing south with one hand raised, as if they were joining forces to resist something... However, judging from the situation, their joint resistance seemed to have failed.

Lin Langtian's expression hardened slightly. Nearly a thousand powerful individuals joined forces, yet they still ended up with such a result. One could imagine just how terrifying the strength of the Evil Demon that attacked this cave back then must have been.

"Palace Lord, someone is coming from behind."

Liu Da, standing behind him, suddenly glanced back and heard a lot of wind-breaking sounds coming from there. It seemed that powerful individuals were starting to enter this cave one after another.

The sound of wind breaking came quite quickly. Within a dozen breaths, hundreds of figures rushed over. They were also attracted by the strange phenomenon and stopped not far from Lin Langtian.

These powerful figures first glanced at Lin Langtian, then turned their gazes to the plaza, their eyes flashing with intense surprise.

Although they didn't know what had happened, the situation seemed rather alarming...

"Just some dead people, what's so interesting about them?"

Among the crowd, some people were getting impatient. They immediately waved their sleeves, and a gust of wind swept across the square. As the wind passed, the thousands of figures instantly turned into ashes and disappeared.

"Tch, there's no treasure at all."

Some powerful figures looked at the now empty square and couldn't help but curl their lips in disapproval.

"Huh? There are still corpses left to scatter."

Just as some people were preparing to leave, someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise. At the end of the square, twelve withered figures were still sitting quietly, their bodies showing no signs of decay despite the erosion of time.

"There's treasure here!"

Upon seeing this, some people's eyes lit up. The fact that these people could withstand the erosion of time meant that they must have been extremely powerful people in their lives, and they must have possessed some treasures.

Tempted by the treasure, more than a dozen figures immediately rushed out and landed on the twelve withered figures.

Lin Langtian stared intently at the twelve withered figures. For some reason, a sense of unease swept through his heart. His eyes flickered, and he suddenly grabbed Mu Lingshan, then signaled to Liu Da and the other two. Immediately, the group retreated rapidly.

Boom!

Just as they retreated rapidly, the twelve withered figures on the plaza, who had already lost all life, suddenly opened their sunken eye sockets, and evil, chilling black flames leaped from their eyes, which then instantly swept out.

Ah!

The dozen or so figures that rushed forward were instantly reduced to ashes upon being touched by the black flames, and a series of shrill screams suddenly rang out.

Boom!

Twelve withered figures slowly sat up, and evil black flames spread out. Then they looked up and locked their gaze on the hundreds of dumbfounded people in front of them...

A raging black flame suddenly swept across the square, and the evil and chilling aura caused the temperature in the world to drop rapidly.

As these withered figures slowly stood up, Lin Langtian swiftly grabbed Mu Lingshan and retreated.

He was familiar with the scene before him. The Demon Corpse he had encountered in the Abyssal Demon Domain were almost identical to them. However, these twelve withered figures were clearly far more powerful than the Demon Corpse he had encountered back then.

As he retreated, Lin Langtian's gaze quickly swept over the Dantian of the twelve withered figures. There was a black vortex of light there, filled with evil and cold Black Qi, and at the same time, there was a strong fluctuation of Death Qi mixed in with it.

"These people were all at the Death Profound Stage Grand Completion before they died..."

Lin Langtian's eyes narrowed slightly. Corroded by that evil Black Qi, these withered figures, though lacking any intelligence, possessed extremely powerful physical bodies, and they also had the Death Qi they had cultivated in their previous lives.

This makes them, even now, comparable to a powerhouse at the Death Profound Stage Lesser Success.

Roar!

As Lin Langtian retreated, black flames rose from the eyes of the twelve withered figures, and then they all shot out together. The evil black flames were filled with Death Qi, and instantly they engulfed more than a dozen powerful people who could not retreat in time.

Ah!

A series of shrill screams rang out. The dozen or so powerful figures were unable to put up any resistance at all. Their bodies were instantly reduced to ashes, and even their Nascent Soul were burned to ashes by the black flames.

Upon seeing this, many powerful figures couldn't help but feel a surge of horror in their eyes.

"Don't be afraid. The Death Qi Death Qi accumulated in the Dantian of these withered corpses during their lifetime has been compressed and transformed into Deathly Still Pill. If you can obtain them, they will be of great benefit to your future breakthrough to the Death Profound Stage Grand Completion!"

"Although they are powerful, we outnumber them. If we join forces, we will definitely be able to kill them!"

While some were intimidated by the ferocity of the withered corpse, one man suddenly shouted, his voice filled with intense greed.

"The Deathly Still Pill?!"

These words immediately caused an uproar among the many powerful figures. Soon after, a red light suddenly surged in the eyes of many people, and even their fear was suppressed.

Those who came to this cave were all powerful figures from various factions in the Chaotic Demon Sea. They had experienced a lot and had considerable knowledge, so they naturally harbored some fierceness in their hearts. However, now that they were attracted by the treasure, their previous fear had naturally diminished considerably.

"Let's attack together!"

Finally, someone gritted their teeth and said fiercely, and then more and more powerful people echoed, and the vast Yuan power immediately shot into the sky. In their hands, Spirit Treasure with considerable fluctuations also appeared.

Judging from their appearance, they clearly intended to take advantage of their numbers and fight these withered corpses.

"A bunch of idiots."

Seeing this, Lin Langtian cursed under his breath, then turned and left without stopping.

These twelve withered figures were all around the Death Profound Stage Lesser Success. Furthermore, after being tempered by the evil Black Qi over the years, their seemingly emaciated bodies were as hard as diamond.

They feel no pain and no fear; to fight them is to commit suicide.

Even now, he would find it a bit of a headache to face something like this, let alone the fact that there are twelve of these withered corpses right now.

Although Mu Lingshan, Liu Da, and the other two did not understand why Lin Langtian was leaving so quickly, they followed him. Just as the five of them had barely left, an astonishing fluctuation suddenly came from the sky behind them, and a shrill scream resounded.

"They're all dead..."

Mu Lingshan couldn't help but glance back at the distance, where black flames were rising in the sky. The hundreds of powerful figures who had stayed behind had instantly turned to ashes...

Lin Langtian shook his head. There was nothing he could do if those guys were looking for death. Although he was also tempted by the Deathly Still Pill, he understood that his life was the most important thing.

"Let's go first," Lin Langtian said, then tried to speed up, as those things were really dangerous.

"Bro Langtian, they're catching up!" Just then, Mu Lingshan's face suddenly changed, and she hurriedly said.

"What?"

Lin Langtian's expression hardened, and he suddenly turned his head. Sure enough, he saw twelve withered figures slowly emerge from the distance amidst rising black flames. They then transformed into twelve black rays of light and headed straight for him.

"They can sense the Devouring Ancestral Symbol and the Space Ancestral Talisman within your body." Spirit Aunt's voice rang in Lin Langtian's mind at this moment.

Lin Langtian's expression was slightly gloomy. He hadn't expected that even though he had left first, he would still be targeted by these damned things.

"Walk."

Lin Langtian's eyes flickered. He said something to Mu Lingshan and Liu Da, and then suddenly darted out.

Let's see if we can get rid of these things first. There are quite a few treasure hunters who have entered this cave. If they fight with these things and exhaust themselves, and if they are also spied on, then things will be a bit bad.

"Yes." Mu Lingshan and Liu Da nodded quickly.

The five figures transformed into rainbow light and shot out once more. Behind them, black flames surged, and twelve gaunt figures quickly pursued them. The evil and chilling fluctuations made the already barren land below even more desolate.

Whoosh!

The two sides chased and fled for more than ten minutes in the blink of an eye, but Lin Langtian's eyes grew increasingly gloomy.

He sensed that the withered figures behind him showed no sign of giving up, and were instead closing in.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian also became angry. If this entanglement continued, not to mention finding the treasure, he would probably be exhausted.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian stopped in his tracks. At the same time, Spirit Aunt's voice rang out. "Do you need my help?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian shook his head. Spirit Aunt's power should not be used lightly unless it is absolutely necessary. As for dealing with these Demon Corpse, seeing the black flames on their bodies, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured.

"I'd like to see whether your demonic fire is more powerful, or my Chaos Abyssal Demon Flame is superior..."
