Senior Li's Painting

Gu Tuoya Venerable, the strongest below Supreme, came bearing a Quasi-Immortal Sword, yet didn't even stir a ripple—sword destroyed, man dead!

And Taiyan Holy Land, scared witless, begged their Supreme to appear and shut down the teleportation array!

This... is too terrifying!

"It's over... completely over..."

"Even a Supreme dares not fight..."

"Overawing a Holy Land—is this the terror of a Demon Venerable?"

For a moment, everyone present was plunged into despair.

How could they still escape?

"No... impossible... impossible!"

Ling Xian trembled at this moment, trembled utterly.

How could even a Supreme retreat...

This was unacceptable!

"Sigh... I never thought today would end with me dying here..."

Qing Luo, Saintess of the Immortal Music Pavilion, let out a long sigh. Even Taiyan Holy Land, which still had a living Supreme, avoided battle out of fear. Their Immortal Music Pavilion was merely a Supreme-level force, with their strongest now only a Venerable...

Even less able to face the enemy!

On the other side, Long Ziyin was completely stunned.

The sword in her hand clattered to the ground.

She was nearly scared senseless!

"Supreme... Supreme, we are your inheritors, your inheritors!"

Huo Mingxuan fell to his knees with a thud at this moment!

Huo Xuanfei also knelt immediately, the two of them kowtowing deeply to the Demon Venerable!

Lihuo Demon Venerable merely glanced at them woodenly and said, "Since you have inherited my path, you shall be my slaves..."

He raised his hand, and Huo Mingxuan and Huo Xuanfei suddenly cried out in agony.

Their souls were being ripped out!

He injected black qi into their souls!

Then, the souls were restored!

The two foamed at the mouth, convulsing all over. When they awoke again, they were neither human nor ghost—they had become Demon Slaves!

"You may be the chief of my slaves..."

The Demon Venerable's gaze then fell on Huo Ling'er.

Huo Ling'er had already cultivated the Holy Fire Eyes, so naturally she could not escape the Demon Venerable's attention!

In that instant, Huo Ling'er felt a terrifying aura descend upon her—a power that made her despair, impossible to resist.

And at that moment, she mustered all her strength, suddenly waved her hand, and a scroll in her hand was flung out!

The moment the scroll appeared, it shot into the sky on its own, and wherever it passed, the countless demonic beasts formed from black fire were directly annihilated into nothingness!

A scroll hung in the sky, slowly unfurling!

All eyes were fixed on it, everyone looking together!

The scroll finally opened, revealing a Nirvana Fire Phoenix within!

Reborn from infinite flames, it bore ten thousand kinds of divinity and a thousand kinds of divine might!

That Fire Phoenix was clearly like a living divine beast!

The moment the scroll unfurled, an overwhelming, sky-covering terrifying aura pierced through this land. Within the Secret Realm, bricks and tiles shattered inch by inch, and the countless demonic beasts in the air were all reduced to nothingness!

Destroying everything!

In that instant, everyone felt as if they were facing a terrifying Immortal Venerable!

"No..."

"What kind of power is this... surpassing Supreme..."

"Is that the painting of a Deity?!"

Thousands of people could not help but prostrate themselves in worship!

Even Lihuo Demon Venerable's oily green eyes flickered.

He suddenly let out a roar, waved his hand, and countless auras converged. In an instant, he merged with the terrifying Blackfire Demon Dragon in the sky, roaring as he charged toward the scroll!

At this moment, the Blackfire Demon Dragon's might increased tenfold!

But then, the Fire Phoenix within the scroll suddenly let out a phoenix cry!

The cry arose!

A formless true flame appeared!

The Blackfire Demon Dragon charged forward, but as the phoenix cry rang out and the true flame emerged, the massive, terrifying black dragon's body directly shattered!

The Lihuo Demon Venerable's body was even blasted into nothingness!

Between heaven and earth, it was instantly clear!

In the secret realm, the formation was no more!

Only a single scroll stood proudly in the sky!

The reborn Fire Phoenix within that scroll seemed to intimidate the desolate Earth.

At this moment, the entire Cangli Mountain Range fell silent, myriad beasts prostrated themselves, and taboos were hushed!

Until long after—

The phoenix cry faded into the distance, the true flame dissipated, yet a supremely sacred aura shrouded this region!

At this moment, everyone bowed in worship before that scroll, devout as could be!

"A deity!"

"The handiwork of a deity!"

"This is true Divine Manifestation!"

They were ecstatic, even more so than when Lihuo Supreme's formation was broken!

It was only after a long while that the scroll slowly descended, landing in Huo Ling'er's hands.

Huo Ling'er looked at the scroll in her hands, and at this moment, her delicate frame trembled, trembled completely.

Beside her, Yu Qishui and Wei Yushan were dumbfounded, their eyes wide, as if turned to stone!

They knew Senior Li was terrifying, but... they never imagined he could be this terrifying!

The might of a Demon Venerable had forced sacred lands into silence and Supremes to retreat.

Yet, Senior Li annihilated it with just a casual drawing!

And even then, the power of that drawing had barely exerted a thousandth, a ten-thousandth of its potential before the Demon Venerable was destroyed...

What kind of realm, what kind of handiwork was this?

"It's simply unimaginable... Senior Li... just what kind of existence is he?!"

Just thinking about it made Yu Qishui's scalp tingle!

Previously, they had dared to imagine Senior Li as Mahayana Stage, Venerable realm...

This was a tremendous blasphemy against Senior Li!

Blasphemy!

His heart raced with fear—thankfully, thankfully Senior Li was magnanimous and didn't bother with insignificant ants like them...

"I knew it, nothing escapes Senior Li's grasp!"

Mu Qianning was extremely excited, her fists clenched tightly; whenever she thought of Li Fan, she felt that all the dangers in this world were nothing to worry about.

And at this moment, the thousands in the secret realm all turned their gazes sharply toward Huo Ling'er!

Huo Ling'er, the master of the scroll...

"Old man, on behalf of the Wind Kingdom Royal Family, pays respects to the Goddess!"

An old man suddenly spoke in a trembling voice, kneeling before Huo Ling'er!

Once he took the lead, the others followed without exception!

"Pay respects to the Goddess!"

"Pay respects to the Goddess!"

All the major and minor forces present knelt down at this moment, submitting!

For a moment, Huo Ling'er was somewhat stunned.

At the Immortal Music Pavilion, Ling Xian looked at Huo Ling'er, his eyes filled with complexity, humiliation, bitterness, envy...

And beside him, the Immortal Music Pavilion's Saintess, Qing Luo, was silent for a moment, then gracefully bowed, saying, "Pay respects to the Goddess."

Pay respects to the Goddess!

Even the Saintess of a Supreme Force... was this respectful!

Qing Luo was also exceptionally clever; she could tell at a glance that Huo Ling'er's cultivation was not high, yet she had easily broken through the barrier earlier and later killed a Demon Venerable with a single painting... This clearly indicated that behind Huo Ling'er stood an extremely terrifying existence!

At the very least, an Immortal!

And that painting, even if it were a celestial-grade treasure, must have been meticulously refined by an Immortal; there were only a few such items in the entire Profound Heaven Realm. To be able to wield such a painting meant Huo Ling'er was undoubtedly an Immortal's personal disciple!

The title of Goddess was not an exaggeration!

Similarly, the thousands present, hailing from countless major powers, knelt in reverence out of respect for the one behind Huo Ling'er!

Even the members of the Dragon Profound Sect were dumbfounded.

In that moment, many of them had their minds completely collapse; their knees went weak, and they fell to the ground, not daring to lift their heads!

Long Ziyin's eyes were wide open as she stared at Huo Ling'er. Her mind roared, then went completely blank!

It was over... she had brought a catastrophe of immense proportions upon her sect!

She had once indulged her subordinates in assaulting the Sect Master of the Lihuo Sect, that being's servant...

She had once said that, before the Dragon Profound Sect, the being behind the Lihuo Sect counted for nothing...

Just moments ago, she had captured Huo Ling'er and nearly used the Spirit Severing Nail to destroy her cultivation...

The more she thought, the paler her face became, and her legs trembled.

Thud!

She dropped to her knees in one step, trembling, and spoke word by word: "Goddess, Ziyin was wrong!"

"Please, Goddess, be magnanimous and forgive Ziyin, forgive my sect!"

She lowered her head, and the sweat on her forehead dripped down like soybeans!
