In the darkness, Qin Wentian's eyes gleamed with light. A holy buddhic light from his art of truth covered him, as his third eye opened.
At this instant, he could see numerous spears of darkness containing powerful destructive energy launching attacks at him. The trajectory of each attack was exceptionally clear, despite the fact that he was still in absolute darkness.
Pointing his finger forward, a fearsome destructive sword beam formed from the convergence of a million strands of sword energy erupted forth with supreme sword might. An almighty aura of destruction and sharpness filled the atmosphere, capable of ripping everything to pieces.
"Hmph." A clear-sounding cold snort rang out, the Child of Darkness was filled with disdain regarding Qin Wentian's answer. He waved his hands as the darkness domain expanded. Boundless energy from the darkness materialized countless heads of devil kings, striking fear in the hearts of people. These devil kings opened their mouths and directly spat out a killing ray which transformed into king-level spears that were sharper and stronger compared to the spears of darkness earlier.
Qin Wentian inclined his head, he could sense a terrifying penetrative power from the atmosphere. Countless ancient characters appeared around him, transforming into gigantic runes of suppression. The pressure exuded fought against the penetrative power while Qin Wentian continued his way forward, his eyes landing on the Child of Darkness.
"Mhm?" The eyes of the Child of Darkness flashed as a cold smile lit up his lips. This man was actually skilled in buddhist-path techniques, but did Qin Wentian think that this was enough to counter his darkness?
The devil heads congregated together behind the Child of Darkness, as though they were his astral soul. He stretched his hand out toward Qin Wentian and in that instant, a terrifying vortex of darkness appeared within his domain of darkness, resembling a fearsome black hole.
The space spiralled about, being absorbed into that vortex. The robes on Qin Wentian fluttered as well from the suction force. His body was pulled closer by the terrifying force, and he couldn't even stabilize himself.
"RUMBLE!" A tyrannical aura gushed forth from him, but Qin Wentian involuntarily took another step forward. The vortex of darkness ahead was like a true black hole, able to devour everything on earth.
"Could it be that the Child of Darkness really wants to kill him? Isn't this against the rules of the Devil Mountain? But if the Child of Darkness was the one who acts, even the Judiciary Hall can only close one eye I guess, and what's more, this man is an immortal realm cultivator." The experts at the surroundings all had looks of interest as they quietly watched on, waiting for the destruction of this immortal cultivator.
It was fine if an immortal cultivator ascended their Devil Mountain and randomly joined one of the devil halls. But this man actually wanted to enter the sacred ground, the Saint Devil Hall.
The Child of Darkness waved his hand as storms of devouring appeared, causing the black hole to become even more terrifying. Raging wind gusted as the black hole expanded, growing stronger and stronger.
Inside the vortex of darkness, heads of devils could be seen, extremely bizarre and terrifying. All of them had their mouths open, and seemed to be puffing out air, empowering the manifested storms of devouring.
"RUMBLE!" Terrifying fluctuations of law radiated from Qin Wentian as he planted both his feet firmly on the ground. However, when he saw that expanding black hole, he knew that this measure was far from enough.
Destructive ancient characters materialized before him. Qin Wentian's hands danced about in the air before he pointed his finger forward. In an instant, the countless ancient characters shot into the vortex, causing thunderous rumbling sounds to echo out. But even so, the black hole didn't stop in its expansion and directly engulfed the ancient characters of destruction.
"This power is actually so similar to the fusion technique recorded in the ancient treasured cauldron." Qin Wentian's eyes flashed. The only difference was the base of this technique. The Child of Darkness's technique utilized the laws of darkness, while he, utilized the essence of the eight supreme greater demons.
"DIE!" The eyes of the Child of Darkness turned ice-like. The strength of this opponent wasn't bad, able to persist for so long despite his overwhelming attacks. At this moment, terrifying devil energy of darkness gushed forth, fusing as one with the devouring might. The domain of darkness started churning as numerous tiny vortexes appeared within, all of them shooting over to Qin Wentian at the same time.
In addition, these vortexes also kept expanding, terrifying to the extreme.
"BOOM!" A tyrannical demonic qi erupted forth from Qin Wentian as the phantom of a demon god appeared behind him
Demon clashing against devil. Who would be the victor?
Qin Wentian howled in anger and gathered his boundless strength, unleashing an attack at his opponent. At this instant, numerous demon gods appeared, transforming into incomparably terrifying vortexes of destruction that collided head-on with the vortexes of darkness. Fearsome apocalyptic might radiated out, as two similar powers were frenziedly trying to devour each other.
Explosions occurred unceasingly in the domain of darkness. The devouring storms were pushed to the side causing the experts in the surroundings to tremble. Why was there such a huge commotion.
An extremely cold look appeared in the eyes of the Child of Darkness. Qin Wentian actually had an innate technique capable of withstanding his ultimate art. Also, it was such a similar one. How can this be possible?
He stepped forward and with every step he took, the darkness grew even more intense. The ancient halberd in Qin Wentian's hand swung out again and again, manifesting vortexes that stacked atop each other. Both their attacks clashed and their strength was so great that even the space seemed to collapsed around them.
"KILL!" The Child of Darkness howled, as the spears of darkness multiplied countlessly.
Qin Wentian's gaze turned cold. In an instant, a gigantic sword formed from suppression and destruction runes descended from the heavens, and slashed out against the Child of Darkness. The spears were all shattered from the force and Qin Wentian pointed his finger forward as he roared, "SUPPRESS!"
As the sound of his voice faded, the spears of darkness all crumbled from the pressure. The Child of Darkness lifted his head, emanating towering devil might with a thunderous roar. Yet everything he did, all collapsed from the suppressive might. When the gigantic sword descended, his body vanished from sight, melding together with the darkness.
Qin Wentian stepped out, stabbing forward with his ancient halberd. His speed suddenly quickened immensely, like that of a great roc, and his strike was powered by divine energy from God's Hand. With a rumbling explosion, a figure appeared in the darkness. That figure was flung through the air as blood dripped from his mouth. This man was actually none other than the Child of Darkness!
It was like Qin Wentian's heavenly eyes have been opened. His eyes were able to see past all illusions and the void. Stepping out with a speed as quick as lightning, his ancient halberd pierced forth once more.
"INSOLENCE!" An angry roar sounded out. After that, Qin Wentian only saw a gigantic palm formed of darkness blotting out the sky. The palm imprint smashed forth with indomitable might, crushing Qin Wentian's halberd and sending him flying through the air. The power of that strike then gushed into his body, threatening to shatter his bones.
"Puchi…" Qin Wentian coughed out blood, and he couldn't help but to stumble backwards from the force of impact. Steadying himself, he saw a devil king radiating fearsome law energies, forming a corporeal domain around him.
"You actually intended to kill the Child of Darkness? You must die for your sins." The devil king spoke in a frigid tone. He lifted his palm and prepared to erase Qin Wentian from this world.
Qin Wentian's countenance changed, his eyes grew cold as well. But at this moment, a devil king expert appeared before Qin Wentian, blocking that strike for him. The impact of the strike caused clouds of dust to rise up as astral winds gusted ferociously.
"HOW DARE YOU!" That devil king from the Darkness Hall roared in rage.
"After losing, you guys want to take his life due to the embarrassment? Could it be that you think this can really cleanse the shame of the Child of Darkness's defeat?" The devil king from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall coldly spoke. The person Qin Wentian defeated earlier wasn't an ordinary member of the Darkness Devil Hall, that person was the one with the highest status, the Child of Darkness! Ordinary members can lose, but since the Child of Darkness was defeated by Qin Wentian, it naturally has profound and far-reaching impact. Hence, the devil king protector of the Child of Darkness wanted to hurry up and slay Qin Wentian.
"The Myriad Ancient Devil Hall dares to interfere and obstruct my Darkness Devil Hall's business?" That devil king domineeringly took a step forward, speaking with force.
"The Darkness Devil Hall is in the wrong." Only to see several experts from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall stepping out. "In addition, the lot of you cannot represent the entire Darkness Devil Hall."
Both sides were radiating enmity, opposing each other but at this moment, a powerful aura gushed forth causing the gazes of everyone to stiffen. Seems like this commotion has attracted the attention of the Judiciary Devil Hall and they were sending people over.
The experts from the Judiciary Hall were all wearing the judiciary robes. The man in the lead had a very cold look on his face. He glanced at the crowd before turning his eyes to the Child of Darkness and Qin Wentian.
"The people of both halls in conflict are to get out of the Saint Devil Hall immediately. As for the Child of Darkness, you will not be able to enter the Saint Devil Hall again until a year's time has passed." That expert from the Judiciary Hall icily spoke. After that, he turned his gaze to Qin Wentian, "This immortal cultivator has no one in his eyes and created trouble in the sacred ground of our Devil Mountain. He even attempted to kill the Child of Darkness. He should be executed."
The eyes of the people from the Darkness Hall gleamed coldly. Although this punishment was somewhat heavy to the Child of Darkness, however, since he was defeated, it was really not suitable for him to come to the Saint Devil Hall again within a short period of time. In addition, the expert from the Judiciary Hall decided to execute Qin Wentian. Since they were also a part of the Devil Mountain, they should know what to do.
"This judgement is unfair." The expert from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall spoke.
"You dare to doubt my judgement?" That eyes of that expert turned cold, as he stared at the person from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall.
"For matters of judgement on the Devil Mountain, it's only natural for a Priest or Priestess from the Judiciary Hall to do the judgement personally." That expert from the Myriad Devil Hall spoke.
"My judgement will be the same judgement as the priest and priestess." The expert from the Judiciary Hall domineeringly replied.
Qin Wentian stood there with a cold smile on his face. Even for a place like the Devil Mountain, it was still filled with prejudice. But what to do? After all, he did come from the immortal realms!
