Demon Realm Invasion

Gan Gu's battle with the Devil Race expert lasted several days. Wherever they passed, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was thrown into complete chaos, and the land was left in utter devastation!

The battle between two Spirit Transformation stage experts shattered space and collapsed the void, causing vast amounts of heaven-and-earth origin power to dissipate into nothingness.

Spirit Transformation stage cultivators would be even less willing to unleash their full strength lightly.

Repeated like this, the vicious cycle would only make the situation increasingly dire.

It was against this backdrop that Gan Gu's battle with that Devil Race expert gradually came to an end. No one knew the outcome of this battle.
