Lord of Ten Thousand Demons Mountain's heart was filled with bitterness.
In the end, he chose to give up resisting. Faced with that legendary existence from the past, no one could muster the will to fight back.
Very soon, his physical body completely collapsed. With nothing left to support it, the power of his divine soul rapidly dissipated as well. In the end, it became only a feeble wisp of light, which Lin Cheng casually sealed away.
At that moment, Lin Cheng let out a breath and smiled.
Fortunately!
Now that he had Lord of Ten Thousand Demons Mountain, he would sooner or later be able to dig up something useful. It would save him quite a bit of time.
Lin Cheng did not know why he wanted to seek revenge... yet some unseen force seemed to be telling him, urging him onward. Perhaps Founding Ancestor Cheng's failed breakthrough back then had not been so simple after all. Some hidden secrets would gradually come to light.
Exploring and unearthing secrets was also quite an interesting thing.
Lin Cheng was quite keen on it.
The instant Lord of Ten Thousand Demons Mountain's aura vanished, the countless deathly pale bolts of lightning in the sky dispersed completely. Heavenly River Monarch and the Heavenly Demon Emperor, who had been confronting each other above, sensed the change at once, and both their expressions shifted.
"His aura disappeared!?" The Heavenly Demon Emperor's heart jolted.
There was not much joy on Heavenly River Monarch's face either. It was full of doubt and vigilance.
He feared it was a trick.
How could a demigod no weaker than himself suddenly have his aura vanish for no reason?
Could he have hidden himself, preparing to strike at him?
For a time, the atmosphere in the void became exceptionally tense.
