"This guy is about to break through."
Mu Qing glanced at the Devouring Demon and said gravely.
The Devouring Demon had first devoured five top-grade divine stone veins, then charged into the Heavenly Pool to feast on the Purple-Gold Heavenly Dragon's blood, gaining an incomparably vast amount of energy in an instant.
The Devouring Demon's body swelled up like a balloon. It had absorbed far too much energy; even as a creature famed for devouring, it could not digest such power in so short a time.
At the same time, the Devouring Demon's aura steadily grew stronger. Then, a powerful presence surged forth—it had directly reached the fourth level of Supreme in one breath!
This power was terrifying, far stronger even than that of an ordinary fourth-level Supreme.
Mu Qing was rather puzzled. He realized that the Devouring Demon seemed not to possess a Supreme Dao.
Dun King noticed this as well. Stroking his chin, he hesitated before saying, "This Devouring Demon was created by the Devil Ancestor. It seems to have some potential—it can even increase its strength simply by devouring energy."
Most crucially, the Devouring Demon had no Supreme Dao, yet it possessed sufficiently formidable strength. Judging from its aura, it could rival an ordinary fourth-level Supreme expert.
"It would be nice if it had a Supreme Dao."
Mu Qing suddenly thought of the Heavenly Emperor's Devouring Dao.
If the Devouring Demon possessed the Devouring Dao as well, it would suit both its name and its abilities—and the Devouring Dao's power was exceptionally terrifying.
"You people!"
Seeing this, anger rose on Tianyue's pretty face. The Purple-Gold Heavenly Dragon before them was the guardian deity of her clan, an existence at the tenth level of Supreme.
Yet now, its energy was being absorbed by the Devouring Demon Mu Qing
