That enormous shadow of the hall could be seen from far away.
But actually getting close to it felt as if there were mountains and rivers between them.
As the saying goes, “looking at a mountain can kill a horse running toward it.”
Everyone present was a Dharma Manifestation Realm expert, their speed extremely fast.
Yet even so, they had to fly for a full two hours before finally arriving at the front of the hall.
Only when they stood before it could they truly sense its ruggedness and grandeur.
This hall was a thousand zhang tall.
It was supported by just four massive stone pillars.
All around it were stacked countless gigantic stone bricks.
Each stone brick was three zhang long, two zhang wide, and two zhang high.
Such a scale of construction was clearly not something lesser demons could accomplish.
After all, the rocks here had been soaked in demonic energy for ages, making them extremely hard and heavy.
Lesser demons would have trouble just moving them, let alone excavating.
“There must be something extremely important to the demon race enshrined here.”
“It’s very likely the legendary Undying Demon Emperor’s body!”
Lang Ben said solemnly.
“Look, the statue inside... No, that’s not a statue—that’s a demon!”
Tang Jinglong’s eyes widened as he gazed into the hall.
At first, they’d all thought that massive figure was just a statue.
But then Tang Jinglong noticed the statue actually moved ever so slightly.
He realized at once—it was no statue at all.
So huge, so imposing.
Its identity was self-evident.
It was the Undying Demon Emperor!
Everyone drew their weapons, going on full alert.
Shen Mo, meanwhile, looked at the Undying Demon Emperor, deep in thought.
He couldn’t see anything from that body.
There was no demon life panel.
This meant the other party was not a living being, but a dead thing.
The Undying Demon Emperor’s deliberate movement was clearly being controlled by Ji Xuan behind the scenes, all to attract their attention.
So, what was Ji Xuan’s real goal?
Shen Mo looked all around, pondering.
Suddenly, the Undying Demon Emperor’s massive body moved.
One moment, it was still standing inside the hall.
The next, it abruptly charged out.
A pair of enormous hands descended from the sky, enveloped in vast demonic energy, and slammed down!
The instant those hands crashed down,
it was as if the heavens themselves were collapsing!
A nameless despair welled up from deep inside everyone.
This was a Great Demon Emperor!
Lang Ben cried out in shock, “He’s actually still alive!”
Shi Tian growled, “A full-force strike from the Great Demon Emperor—we can’t withstand it, retreat at once!”
Tang Jinglong shouted, “Send word to Zhang Longxiang and Zhu Xuanji immediately—the Undying Demon Emperor has revived! Get ready!”
Everyone present was truly a Dharma Manifestation Realm expert.
Even with fear in their hearts, they reacted instantly.
They immediately retreated.
They immediately sent word to the other Dharma Manifestation Realm experts.
The giant hand crashed down.
The group’s reaction was quick—they weren’t struck directly, but were still hit by the tidal wave kicked up by the impact.
It was just the shockwave and air blast.
Yet even the aftershock of the Great Demon Emperor’s blow was enough to send all these Dharma Manifestation experts flying, gravely wounded.
In an instant, every Dharma Manifestation Realm expert coughed up blood, their faces ashen.
Their spirit weapons were all simultaneously shattered into pieces, littering the ground.
Shen Mo didn’t reveal his strength right away. Instead, he went with the flow and was sent flying like the others.
Because Ji Xuan had yet to appear.
He had to wait for Ji Xuan to show himself before he could truly seize victory.
“I’ll cover the rear—you all run!”
Tang Jinglong roared, unleashing his Dharma Manifestation.
In an instant, his manifested form swelled to its largest, a hundred zhang tall.
But compared to the Undying Demon Emperor, it was still as insignificant as an ant.
“No need to run. This emperor is here.”
Just then, a cold, clear voice sounded from behind them.
Everyone was stunned.
There was actually someone else here?
