Within that Demon Realm, darkness lay thick as ink, as though countless pairs of evil, blood-red eyes were watching from the shadows.
Wisps of eerie aura coiled around Yue Xipo's Divine Soul, making it tremble violently against his will, as though that aura would tear his Divine Soul to shreds.
Meanwhile, several fiery serpents burst out of the Demon Flames surrounding Qing Chen, baring their fangs and claws.
Qing Chen held a seal in one hand, Magic Formulas flying, and the Formless Illusion-Annihilation Seal suddenly appeared in midair.
The seal measured a square across, suffused with blood-red light yet bearing a faint, elusive sense of unreality.
It seemed to have been born from the endless Blood Sea Abyss, radiating a chilling pressure.
Since Qing Chen had entered the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage and completed the Four Refinements of Demon Fire, his Magic Power had increased tremendously.
Now, even without the Brahma Demon Heart Aspect, he could freely unleash the most powerful Mudra Art within it.
Qing Chen gave a low shout that resounded like a great bronze bell.
The "Demon Fire serpents" and the "blood-red, transparent Great Seal" thundered down toward Yue Xipo together, with the momentum to shatter mountains and sever rivers.
The instant his spiritual sense came under attack, Yue Xipo still detected the looming danger overhead, bearing down on him like Mount Tai, thanks to the keen perception honed through his many years of cultivation.
He abruptly broke free of the Purgatory Illusion, forced his mind to settle, and mobilized every last bit of Spiritual Power in his body.
With all the strength he could muster, he activated the "Origin-Returning Gang Qi Barrier" again.
In an instant, a glazed, translucent barrier appeared before him.
Yet before Qing Chen's two incomparably powerful strikes, this barrier seemed utterly fragile.
