Chapter 372: Secret
As one fragmentary star mark after another flew into the pagodas within the bellies of the three lofty mountain peaks, the grand spell formation left by the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace was finally activated.
As the initiator, Nie Tian actually didn’t need to do much. After he sent out the fragmentary star marks, the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s profound spell formation started to activate on its own.
Sitting on the mountaintop, he reopened his eyes to observe the battle between Ling Dong and Auden.
However, he discovered that the battle scene he saw with his naked eyes varied greatly from the battle scene he had seen with his soul power via his seven Heaven Eyes.
After thinking for a brief moment, he suddenly came to a realization.
The battle between Ling Dong and Auden was not only a tangle between their spiritual power, but their souls were also contending against each other in mysterious ways.
As he closed his eyes again to observe with his Heaven Eyes that contained soul power, he was convinced that the terrifying demonic shadow he was seeing was none other than the incarnation of Auden’s soul!
The cage-like spell formation formed by numerous frozen, prism-like mountain peaks was the crystallization of the profound combination of Ling Dong’s frost power and soul power.
Their battle on the soul level seemed far fiercer and more critical than their battle on the spiritual power level.
Only extremely powerful beings like Ling Dong and Auden could battle on such an advanced and profound level, which Nie Tian could only observe via his Heaven Eyes.
“The incarnations of their souls are fighting at close quarters!” Nie Tian grew excited inwardly.
With a deep breath, he continued to observe the battle between Ling Dong and Auden with immense interest.
It wasn’t long before he noticed that wherever the gigantic, two-headed python’s black and purple flames covered, everything would immediately burst into flames, including the surrounding mountain peaks, the earth, and even the air.
Furthermore, Nie Tian sensed the changes in the vicinity with rapt attention, and discovered that the two kinds of flames were rapidly burning the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth which Ling Dong had released into the air away, giving rise to loud crackles.
Wherever the purple and black flames spread to, everything would soon be reduced to ashes.
As the flames set everything in the vicinity ablaze, the originally diluted demon Qi once again became rich and thick.
In the meantime, the arrival of the few members of the Astarte Clan caught Nie Tian’s attention. With a confused expression on his face, he looked at the few figures who had previously been forced to stop their army in the spatial tunnel due to the interdiction of the demon Qi rivers. “Caro, Zelia...”
Huang Fan snorted disdainfully. “More high-tier Demons.”
“They should have appeared in the Realm of Flame Heaven,” Nie Tian said in a soft voice. “They are from the Astarte Clan. You’ve met the Rotspirit Ox. These high-tier Demons almost marched their army into the Realm of Flame Heaven. If I hadn’t sealed the spatial rift in the Realm of Flame Heaven, they would have succeeded already.”
“You’ve seen them before?” Huang Fan asked, greatly surprised.
“Yeah, I sensed their actions through the spell formation left by the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace,” Nie Tian explained. “But the weird part is why they would come here.”
FIZZ! FIZZ!
One after another, clusters of blazing purple flames shot out of the two-headed python’s foul mouth and flew towards Nie Tian.
Eyebrows furrowed, a Profound realm expert from the Heaven Palace Sect, who was standing next to Huang Fan, waved his hand disgustedly, sending out gusts of fierce wind through his cuff.
As they traveled at an extremely fast speed in the air, ear-piercingly sharp sounds were created. In the next moment, they crushed the clusters of demonic flames and reduced them to tiny, scattered purple sparks.
“You brought Nie Tian here from the Realm of Flame Heaven, you keep him safe.”
After saying these words to Huang Fan, the man rose to his feet from his previous lotus position and flew down the mountaintop towards the central valley.
It was also at that moment that all the other Heaven Palace Sect experts that had been scattered on top of the surrounding mountain peaks flew down, including Zhao Luofeng.
