Within a short time, Austin had got rid of two cultivators who were at the Tribulation Realm. Both of them were very strong, but
Austin was able to kill them one by one without much difficulty.
This served as a dangerous warning to the rest of the cultivators at the Tribulation Realm. Now even those demon lords knew that
the young man in front of them was not another young cultivator who boasted about his powers. He might claim or seem to be at
the medium stage of Astral Realm, but there was every reason to accept the fact that he was more than what he seemed.
"You will pay for this with your life!"
one of the demon lords yelled in a ear-piercing voice. As soon as he spoke those words, his huge and mountain-like body suddenly
changed to a cloud of thick fog. It was eerie like a bottle of ink, poisoning the water. It was the evil aura. Soon, the evil aura grew
and gathered together. It formed a dark cloud that rushed over to Austin.
Austin was a bit stunned by the spooky sight.
But he cback to his senses quickly and unleashed his spiritual sense to analyze the situation. Then Austin changed color--the
demon lord's body was nowhere to be found. Even with his powerful spiritual sense, Austin couldn't detect him. That meant he was
unable to attack the true entity and destroy it!
But there was no tfor him to consider other options. The evil aura was coming at him at lightning speed. By the light of nature,
Austin predicted the movement and swung his sword.
Instantly, three blood-red sword auras were released from the edge of the sword, and all of them hit the heart of the evil aura.

The evil aura shattered into several pieces at once. But the next instant, they gathered together again, like they had never been
broken at all. From within the center of the evil aura, the demon lord's thunderous laughter could be heard and it kept resonating.
With a powerful swishing sound, the thick and overwhelming evil aura reached Austin.
It began to wrap itself around him before he could even react.
The next thing he knew was that he had sunk into an endless and dark world, where even the last bit of light seemed to have been
squeezed out. Far from being able to see his body, he couldn't even feel it.
He calmed himself down and activated his spiritual sense again to feel this strange space. Luckily, the spiritual sense was still
working in this dark world of evil aura.
But what he detected shocked him. Outside the evil aura, he couldn't feel the existence of the demon lord, but inside it, he
discovered that it was everywhere, filling every corner of the dark space.
It was as though every tiny bit of the evil aura was a part of the enemy, and Austin was now trapped in its body.
Austin knew and had seen with his own eyes that the demon race was indeed born with many quirky and evil magical skills. The
thing that Austin was experiencing now was another queer thing about them. Austin realized what the demon lord had done. It had
turned its entire body into a kind of cage.
He knew that there was no human being who was able to do such a thing. It could be said that human cultivators had no means to
match the demon race in this respect.
Bang!
Before Austin could understand his situation completely, a forceful and strange power hit him from behind and knocked him over.
Austin had failed to notice it until it attacked him!
He had to act quickly. Regaining his balance, he pulled out his Slaughtering Sword. Turning back agilely, he unleashed two blood-
red sword auras again and scattered that furtive surge of energy.
"Ha ha! Good job, human! Honestly, | never thought that you would be able to avoid my attack. How sad that you have been
caught up in my swamp of evil aura already! Be assured that you will be burnt into ashes by my Spectral Demon Fire soon
enough!"
The demon lord declared as his harsh laughter kept resounding throughout the whole space of the evil aura. It was grating on
Austin's ears from all directions.
Austin could hardly bear it. It felt as though there were dozens of demon lords in the space and were shouting at him crazily in
unison. His ears were ringing badly and it nearly hampered his ability to take action.
At that smoment, the demon lord launched another barrage of attacks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
This time, Austin's eyes suffered first, for a glaring white light suddenly pierced through the darkness of the boundless evil aura
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand reached his eyes. Nearly blinded by the light, Austin was suddenly aware that it might be the Spectral Demon Fire the demon
lord had just mentioned. The raging fire soon covered the whole space. Strangely, instead of using the evil aura as its fuel, the fire
was actually releasing more of it.
In a flash, the white fire completely surrounded Austin. While it kept burning furiously, numerous evil creatures were born out of it.
They flew to Austin as soon as they had taken shape. Once they got to his side, their jaws of death opened. They scrambled upon
one another to have a share of the long-awaited feast--human flesh!
In the middle of the white fire, Austin felt incredibly cold rather than hot. It was like he was stuck in permanent winter, so bleak and
cold--a place where the sun would never shine.
To make matters worse, the Spectral Demon Fire was not only attacking his body, but also his Soul Sea! When it touched him, it
intruded his Soul Sea and wanted to mess it all up.
Austin regretted not being careful enough and falling into this swamp of evil aura. He had never imagined that he would get into a
passive position like this while facing the demon lord. As he tried to think about the whole matter, he realized that the thing he was
dealing with was skind of demonic skill.
It was often said that many strong demons of the demon race could develop their own unique demonic skills, each one being more
strange and evil than the other.
Austin was sure that the evil aura cage and the white fire in it had to be the demon lord's unique skill. It did look strong, and had
let the demon lord get the upper hand for the moment, but something brought a smile on Austin's face, while he was trying to
protect himself.
"You fool! You should never play with fire, you know, especially not with me," he murmured.
