The Story Never Ends - Chapter 232

“Seems to be the case. I will go in there to check it.” Thaddeus thought for a while before replying with a straight face. Despite knowing it was dangerous, as a sect master, he had to take this responsibility.

“I see. Then I will calm down the disciples and bring them out of the sect for the time being.” Knowing that the Sect Master was one of the top powerhouses in the Outer Region, Hendrix naively thought that there could be nothing going wrong here.

So, he left responsibly, not asking him any more questions.

“You have matured.” Thaddeus sighed as he watched Hendrix strolling away from his vision. Previously, he was rash, selfish, and had an arrogant personality. But after meeting Davion, everything appeared to have changed.

His character turned completely opposite to before and he began cultivating much harder. Not only that, he would give pointers to his fellow juniors in his spare time, making him an ideal Senior Brother that everyone cared and was envious of.

“He is finally qualified to become the future Sect Master of the Bone and Devil Sect.” He muttered.

“Now, remembering that kid, how is he doing at the moment? Did he meet Lilianna? Did he become a disciple of the Thunderbolt Sect?” He felt quite proud every time he recalled how he managed to teach a talented disciple like Davion.

Abruptly, he took in a deep breath and headed in the direction of the pool. He didn’t know whether he could come out unscathed or not.

***

Meanwhile, Davion, who had some traces of blood on his lips was panicking inside the lamp.

“Damn! Things are getting serious. If not for my barrier blocking most of the damage and they not going all out, the whole sect would have turned into a dead zone.”

He couldn’t believe how the situation escalated this quickly. The skeleton summoned a Venerable Elder while the devil released a horrendous power that overpowered that elder in the end.

Yes, although Judah used the law of wrath to bolster his powers, he was still lacking a bit when compared to the ancestral devil. Thus, he suffered some internal injuries as he coughed out a mouthful of blood.

“So, what do we do? Are we interfering?” Siena asked.

“We will only die if we go there. Since you can’t witness what’s happening outside, you can’t imagine how precarious our circumstance is.” He shook his head and continued.

“I shouldn’t have come here so insolently with greed. If not for the skeleton attracting the devil’s attention, we would have died long ago.” With how strong the devil was, how could he not notice their lamp?

“Maybe.” She didn’t deny his words.

“Anyways, we have to find an opportunity to run when they brawl.” He planned to give up, realizing how weak they were. Nevertheless, the question was, can they even escape?

While Davion’s mind was in a mess, the next turn of events made him cry out in astonishment.

“What the fuck!”

“How can he be so cowardly?”

Judah intently gazed at the devil as if he wanted to devour him alive. Nonetheless, he waved his hand, causing the skeleton and his slaves to fly next to him in a jiffy.

“Lord.” The skeleton was confused. Didn’t the lord try to abandon him previously? But now, did he change his mind?

“Shut up!” Judah slapped him, knocking him unconscious and sending him along with his corpses to the void. Earlier, he wanted to turn a blind eye to everything and make excuses after returning.

However, it was different at the moment. The headquarters of the Heavenly Demon Sect already knew that he had descended here. Thus, what would happen if he reported that he failed to rescue the skeleton and the devil wasn’t captured as well.

Yes, catching the devil was currently impossible. Only Venerable Experts who had comprehended multiple laws could do so. Therefore, he had to at least make up for his mistakes by doing something right.

The devil watched all this without making a move. This was because his time was running out as forcibly manipulating the power of law had taken a toll on his soul. He was sure that if he made another strike of that level, he would totally drain himself and would cease to exist.

“Brat, I allowed you to take away these ants so that they won’t be a nuisance to us. Now, shall we continue?” He spoke haughtily and the law runes vibrated more vigorously, showcasing that he was ready for round two. But inwardly, he was hoping to scare him away.

And as he had guessed, Judah didn’t say anything and simply took out a talisman from his spirit ring, burning it without any hesitation.

“Whoosh!”

Law runes different from the devil’s surrounded him and his body turned into specks of dust, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

“Don’t think that you have won just yet. We will be sending more powerful forces to catch you.”

Judah’s deathly threat rang in the pool.

“A high-level transportation formation using the law of space. Only a Saint can produce it.” The devil was amazed.

“The Heavenly Demon Sect. I will put that in my mind.” After recovering his strength, he would definitely raze it to the ground.

He steadily withdrew his aura and his law runes also vanished. This was not the end as his soul trembled aggressively and his soul Qi started discharging into the pool at a rapid rate, leading him to become smaller and smaller as time passed.

Observing this, Davion got extremely excited. His soul nearly left his body as his emotions went from low to high in an instant.

“The devil is weakening. Is this the backlash brought upon by mobilizing the power of law with a weak cultivation base?” He shuddered in fear as he recalled what had happened to him when he messed with the power of laws.

It was an unforgettable experience that almost took his life.

“Davion, this is our chance.” Siena immediately channeled her soul Qi without waiting for his response.

“I know.” Davion did the same and the law runes on his body lit up at once.

He then lifted his sword and the projection of a humongous longsword emerged. It was so big that it generated sparks when it touched the sky of his small world. This was the same move he used against Demon Emperor Trevor.

But would it work against the ancestral devil? It was unquestionably no by all means. That’s why Davion used his flame rune as well. On top of that, he burned his Flame Tiger bloodline, bolstering the power of his flame rune even more.

“Whoosh!”

Destructive blood-colored flames coiled around the sword and Davion’s aura became so strong that Siena was pushed back as a result.

Nonetheless, this didn’t affect her as she used her fairy artifact to cover herself with armor. Afterward, she approached behind him and put her palms on his back.

“This…” He sensed a tiny white flame taking shape in his dantian. It rapidly spun and the flame rune on his body churned out a mixture of phoenix and his original flames.

“Haha, this feeling is wonderous. I can’t seem to get enough of these flames. I missed them.” Davion was referring to the time when he slew a large number of warriors from the Golden Lion Tribe mistakenly, using these similar flames.

“Shut up and end this as swiftly as possible. I can only hold on for a minute. You know that my cultivation base hasn’t reached the point where I can withstand the laws.” A struggling childish voice sounded from the sword, bringing him back to his senses.

“My bad.” He smiled apologetically and with just his thought, his overbearing sword Qi was unleashed and his attack materialized outside the lamp.

“Who?” The devil who was only about 50 feet tall currently, sensed some dangerous movements in a certain direction.

When he turned over, he was greeted by a humongous sword that had a combination of two flames swirling around it. It slashed down vertically, coming straight for him.

“My God! It contains traces of various laws. Flame, sword, destruction, reincarnation, and heavy sword intent. Moreover, I don’t have the time to block it.” The devil was speechless.

How could he have missed a strike of such a caliber with his Divine Sense? Was someone hiding here the whole time to sneak attack him? Why didn’t he notice it beforehand?

Furthermore, an attack of this range must have needed some time to deploy it. He didn’t think that someone could prepare it in a split second. It was because he felt two vastly different auras mixed in it.

“Fuck. I have to take it head-on.” He utilized the last bit of his power and formed a barrier with his soul Qi, hoping to survive.

“BOOM”

An earth-shattering explosion took place underwater and the ground caved in by hundreds of feet, resulting in more water to shoot out like a fountain from the cracks.
