When Han Chen heard that both the Black Flame Demon and Snake Demon had sealed off the tunnel, his heart sank.
He knew—
A'Rui was more than likely already dead!
"Damn it!"
He gritted his teeth and stared at the dark, seemingly bottomless cave before him, which the Black Flame Demon had blasted open. For a moment, he seemed to have aged by a decade.
The waterfall thundered.
The once serene valley was now filled with overwhelming soul power, transformed into a living hell.
"Rui—!"
"Ah-Rui! Where are you?!"
Han Chen's anguished cries shook the surrounding cliffs.
All around him lay a crater riddled with holes, the earth scorched black. The remains of a tree, blasted apart by the violent explosion, and the sight of the devastation left him completely drained.
"Damn it—!"
The Clear Sky Hammer, as massive as a mountain, spun through the air with a thunderous roar and hurtled toward the cave entrance.
Han Chen's fury boiled over.
Like a mad beast, he charged at the Black Flame Demon and Ling Yuan, bent on killing them both.
"Han Chen, today is the day you die!"
The Black Flame Demon let out a savage roar. His martial soul appeared behind him, looming like a mountain of flesh, and a single foot came down with enough force to shatter mountains and split the earth.
"Ling Yuan, attack!"
Ling Yuan, the Snake Demon beside him, was wreathed in raging flames.
She transformed into a hundred-meter-tall flaming python and lunged forward, raining down a torrent of fiery meteors at Han Chen.
"Damn it! I'll kill you!"
Han Chen roared. The Clear Sky Hammer blazed with blood-red light.
"Clear Sky Nine Forms!"
A frigid killing intent coalesced, as if it would freeze the heavens and earth!
"Then die with me!"
At that
