The black-robed man was named the Devouring Demon. He was not exactly a living being and was more accurately described as a being that straddled the border between life and death.
The Devouring Demon was confident he could kill everyone since the competition lasted for 30,000 years. Within this period, none of the powerhouses on Mount Chaos could enter the Ancient Realm. He was sure he could wipe out the creatures that entered the Sky Islands before the end of the competition.
The Devouring Demon burst out in maniacal laughter. Then, he replied, “Since you insist, I’ll simply enlighten you before your death.”
Everyone standing behind James quickly drew their weapons and unleashed their powerful auras. All of them entered their combat forms and prepared to engage in a battle.
The Devouring Demon paid the Quasi Acmeans no mind. He hardly even cared about Deshawn who had reached the Quasi Boundless Rank.
The only person he wanted to fight was James, disguised as Wyot. The Devouring Demon was a Terra Acmean and was not intimidated by James.
James waited silently for an answer.
“Wyot, Wyot, Wyot. I wonder why you weren’t killed by the humans. If only they did, then things wouldn’t have to be so complicated. Elder Youri could easily take over the Doom Race with the other members’ support. Then, he could slowly conquer the Greater Realms.”
“Are you saying Elder Youri is the one who’s behind this?” James asked calmly, unsurprised by the revelation.
The Devouring Demon replied, “Yes, that’s right. Elder Youri wants you dead. He’s already entered the Omniscience Path’s Ninth Stage and has acquired an incredible physical body. Now, he only lacks Blithe Omniscience. However, someone has been going around as him and causing trouble. His plans to obtain the ten tokens were derailed. Due to recent developments, he abandoned his original plan and wanted to acquire the Ten Great Race’s tokens by any means possible.”
The Quasi Acmeans behind James gasped after hearing the Devouring Demon’s words.
“The Omniscience Path’s Ninth Stage?”
