Verity also watched the scene, puzzled. In their previous encounters, Albert had never acted so recklessly.Brother Albert!Selene wailed. I guess we’ll be brothers in the next life!Amid all the mixed stares, Albert remained unusually calm. Staring at the onrushing toxic light, he summoned Netherworld Soul Fire from the hand gripping the staff, sending it surging into the bamboo staff.As the Netherworld Soul Fire flowed, the staff trembled violently.What happened next stunned everyone in the hall: the toxic light that was about to engulf Albert suddenly split apart, nimbly avoiding his body.The poisonous glow then recoiled and was swallowed back by the cyan giant python coiled around the Green Bamboo Staff.The python hissed softly, its vertical pupils fixed on Albert. It inched closer and let out a gentle, affectionate hiss.At the same time, streams of information flooded Albert’s mind.Green Bamboo Serpent Staff — a triple Purple-Eye treasure, forged from ten-thousand-year gree

Albert stepped out of the main hall holding a large dragon-shaped bow, his gaze calm as he watched the corrupted beings pouring forth from the black mist.The twisted, grotesque corrupted creatures immediately let out shrill hisses and scrambled rapidly toward him across the ground and walls.But then countless soul power attacks erupted from behind Albert, surging like a tidal wave and engulfing the corrupted beings.Albert looked up, his brows furrowed as he watched the fierce battle unfolding in the sky.These corrupted creatures were not a major threat. The outcome of the fight would ultimately depend on whether Euphemia, Tabor, Farah, and the others could repel the Soul-Devouring True Devil.For now, all they could do was hope that under the suppression of the Cave Heavenly Secret Realm, the devil would be unable to unleash its more powerful abilities. Otherwise, escaping alive today would be nearly impossible.As Albert, Verity, Selene, and the others engaged in fierce combat wi

Verity and Selene both stirred at his words and nodded.You’ve seen that mysterious Lamp‑Bearer too? We did encounter it earlier. It felt like an extremely dangerous presence, so we didn’t dare get too close. But we heard some people tried approaching it, hoping to trigger some kind of opportunity.Albert looked surprised. What happened?Verity frowned slightly. No one could reach it. That Lamp‑Bearer seemed unreal. No matter what method they used to approach, they couldn’t touch it at all.Selene turned to Albert and asked, You want to use the Lamp‑Bearer’s power to fight this otherworldly devil? It’s a good idea, but unfortunately, the Lamp‑Bearer is too mysterious. We don’t even know if it’s real. How could we borrow its power?Albert said calmly, We have to try anyway. If we keep waiting, the situation will only get worse.Verity paused for a moment. What do you plan to do?Albert smiled. I need you two to clear a path for me. There are too many corrupted beings out there. Tear a

This armor was known as the Crimson Tortoise Mystic Armor, a defensive treasure of the Single Purple-Eye grade. Clearly, facing the horrifying attacks of the Soul-Devouring True Devil, Tabor no longer dared hold back and immediately brought out his life-preserving treasure.Farah quickly formed hand seals with both hands. A jade-green light bead rose from the top of her skull, emitting a circle of green light that shielded her within.Euphemia possessed no defensive Purple-Eye treasure, but the Green Bamboo Serpent Staff in her hands allowed her to defend through offense.With a thought, the gigantic Profound Serpent phantom behind her transformed into dark radiance and roared downward, pouring completely into the Green Bamboo Serpent Staff.The staff then left her hand, soared into the air, and burst forth with brilliant green light.In the next instant, the Green Bamboo Serpent Staff vanished, turning into a colossal green python hundreds of meters long. The python let out a deafeni

The golden flaming arrow traveled at blistering speed. Even mighty warriors such as Tabor could only catch a glimpse of golden light streaking across the sky.By the time they regained their senses, the arrow—wreathed in raging golden flames and resembling a snarling golden fire dragon—had slammed violently into the blood-oozing skin visage.In that instant, golden fire engulfed everything, as if the entire heavens had been set ablaze.The skin visage let out a bloodcurdling shriek and was incinerated at an astonishing rate. The golden flaming arrow pierced straight through it, hurtling toward the Soul-Devouring True Devil behind it.The devil unleashed endless shrill wails, swinging forth its massive palm and conjuring countless shadowy figures in a futile attempt to block the arrow.Yet the golden-flamed projectile advanced with unstoppable momentum, effortlessly tearing apart all of the devil’s defenses. Finally, beneath the astonished gazes of all onlookers, it sank directly into
