Chapter 1858: Leaving the Devil Tower (1/2)
This!
Huang Xiaolong leaned out his head slightly and looked below, but he could see no changes to the path of stairs he had climbed.
While baffled, Huang Xiaolong’s attention returned to the huge pavilion.
The huge pavilion was shaped like a triangle, and from a distance, it resembled a giant cone-shaped drill. The pavilion’s wall surfaces were engraved with shifting devil runes, like sand blown by the ceaseless wind.
The entrance was located on the lowest floor, spewing out rich devil qi from inside the pavilion.
After determining there was no immediate danger, Huang Xiaolong walked through the entrance and entered the pavilion.
The moment Huang Xiaolong stepped through the pavilion’s entrance, he arrived at a spacious square. At the center of the square was an extensive Devil Race formation. He looked around, but in the end, his attention returned to the formation, and he walked towards it.
Huang Xiaolong arrived at the edge of the formation moments later.
Huang Xiaolong stood silently as he observed the glimmering devilish light flowing throughout the formation’s runes, then he took a step into the formation.
When Huang Xiaolong stepped into the formation, darkness flashed before his eyes. In the next second, he found himself in a devil abyss. Within this abyss, Huang Xiaolong could not see the sky above, the earth under his feet, nor the end and the beginning of this abyss. Abundant strong devilish lights shone into the abyss space. To top it off, these devilish lights were different from the devilish lights that had tempered his body before.
The devilish lights from lower floors had leaned more towards the light, while these boundless devilish lights actually felt viscous, like magma of devilish lights.
Seeing devilish lights rushing towards him from all around like an angry tsunami, Huang Xiaolong’s chest tightened, but he hurriedly circulated godforce from his Archdevil Supreme Godhead. Devil godforce rushed out and formed a protective barrier around him.
However, when these devilish lights reached him, Huang Xiaolong quickly discovered his devil godforce’s protective barrier was superfluous. The light broke through his protective barrier, and devil energy invaded his body before he could break free, and he was drowning within the light.
It was a similar feeling of being washed away and submerged under a landslide. He couldn’t breathe, much less move.
At this moment, he was nothing but mortal, a mortal who needed to breathe to survive.
Huang Xiaolong struggled to keep his eyes open, but it proved difficult as the devil energy entered through his eyes. Darkness took over his sight completely, and there was nothing but pitch-black darkness.
As Huang Xiaolong was about to faint from suffocation, he entered an ethereal state. Vaguely, he seemed to hear voices from the deepest part of the devil abyss, yet it also seemed to be the noises of the devilish flowing light enveloping him.
Huang Xiaolong’s Archdevil Supreme Godhead spun rapidly, absorbing the intense influx of devil energy rushing into his body.
It didn’t take long for Huang Xiaolong’s Archdevil Supreme Godhead to become a giant devouring black hole, frenziedly swallowing the devil energy flooding into him.
As robust devil energy continued to fill Huang Xiaolong’s body, and his True Dragon Physique was tempered, reforged, and strengthened over and over.
In Huang Xiaolong’s chest, the heart of hell emitted resplendent black lights, forming layers of light of hell.
Although the light of hell was also blacklight, it was different from the devilish blacklight. The darkness of Hell had a bloodlust quality, a coldness devoid of emotions, while the Devil World's devilish light resonated with the cruel violence in one's nature, darkness so black that it held a tinge of dark green.
At one point, the Blood Eye Devil Stele flew out of Huang Xiaolong's body. It flew in circles around Huang Xiaolong, and its two blood-eyes were wide open, akin to a great malevolent demonic beast that had awakened from slumber in the depths of the devil abyss, emitting bloody red lights.
