The Hundred Lamps Illuminate

Gu Qingshan rode the wind upward.

The iceberg stood at the far end of the distant city.

Another powerful devil moved faster than he did.

The Dark Devil, its whole body wreathed in gray flames, flickered through the air several times, swept past Gu Qingshan, and had nearly reached the sky above the iceberg.

"Move aside."

He roared.

The devils attacking the serpent all stopped and retreated.

They had realized it, too: though their attacks had left the giant sea serpent covered in blood, it had shown no reaction. Its body hadn't moved an inch.

It seemed those attacks meant nothing to it.

As the devils stopped, every wound on the giant sea serpent began healing at incredible speed.

The Dark Devil lowered his head and gazed at the sea serpent that had lived for thirty million years.

Boundless gray flames surged from his body, gradually swallowing him whole.

He shot into the sky, lifted a mass of gray fire that blotted out the heavens, then hurled it down with all his might.

The gray flames slammed toward the sea serpent like a comet.

Sensing the danger contained in the flames, the sea serpent suddenly rose straight out of the water, opened its jaws, and savagely bit at the descending fire.

Faced with this shocking spectacle, the other devils retreated in disarray.

None of them wanted to be caught up in the battle.

The Judge with the executioner's blade on his back, the Silent Lord with no mouth, and Gu Qingshan all halted in midair, watching this decisive attack.

The Judge sighed. "He used the Life-Devouring Grey Flame right from the start. Looks like it's all over."

Noticing the Silent Lord and the Crooked Path Lord looking at him, he explained, "The Dark Devil's specialty is the Life-Devouring Grey Flame.
