Earth Demon.
Lin Bai came riding his sword. Sensing Ke Ling in the mountain forest ahead, he immediately brought his sword down in a furious slash.
The azure Sword Qi roared forth, destroying the mountain forest and reducing it to ruins.
When the sword reached Ke Ling, Ke Ling suddenly raised his head, extended a hand, and grabbed forward, actually seizing Lin Bai's Sword Qi in his palm.
The next moment, Ke Ling exerted force with his hand. After a series of crisp cracks, the ten-thousand-zhang azure Sword Qi developed cracks like a piece of azure jade, then shattered with a deafening boom.
After the Sword Qi broke apart, the force bursting outward flattened everything within ten thousand miles.
Smoke and dust swept up again, soaring into the sky.
Lin Bai froze for a moment. Just then, he had clearly sensed a power that did not belong to Ke Ling appear within Ke Ling's body.
Standing in midair, Lin Bai warily stared into the smoke and dust.
Within the billowing yellow smoke, a strand of black mist slowly appeared.
A human figure gradually emerged.
Only when he appeared within Lin Bai's field of vision did Lin Bai finally see him clearly.
The Ke Ling of this moment had completely lost the Saint Son's carefree elegance. Instead, he had become as savage, violent, and bloodthirsty as a beast.
His entire body was wreathed in black smoke that refused to disperse, spilling from every pore in his skin.
The veins on his face bulged, his features twisted into something hideous, and his narrowed eyes revealed a blood-red gaze. Most notably, the low growls that occasionally came from his mouth made him seem nothing like a human and much more like a demon lord.
Within the Eastern Sky Immortal Palace.
