Chapter 2183

After Quade killed James, another person appeared before he could catch his breath.

It was a powerful person who had much stronger energy than him.

After a brief contact, he was knocked away.

Another fierce battle broke out in the area.

At that moment, James was lying weakly among the ruins below them.

His strength had improved tremendously after casting Sacrilegious Ascension. However, it was only

comparable to the strength of someone at the Immortal Ascension’s Sixth Stair.

Meanwhile, Quade had reached the peak of the Immortal Ascension’s Sixth Stair and was close to the

Seventh Stair.

Although their strength were both in the Immortal Ascension’s Sixth Stair, the gap them was relatively

big.

James was severely injured but not dead.

The Demonic Lotus reformed his body, so Quade’s strength was not enough to kill him.

Sensing the movement above him, James knew another fierce battle had broken out.

Thus, he remained under the ruins in the ground and did not show himself, using the opportunity to

heal his body.

Demonic Energy surged through his body, and he quickly recovered from his injuries. In less. than a

minute, he had fully recovered. His strength had returned to its peak, but he did not choose to reveal

himself. Instead, he waited within the ruins.

The fierce battle above him continued.

Terrifying energies swept across the surroundings and destroyed everything.

The mountains were destroyed, and the ground was full of bottomless pits.

The fight lasted for about half an hour.

James sensed that Quade and the other cultivator were not dead yet but wounded.

Quade sustained a wound on his arm and was bleeding. He stared at his opponent, who was wearing a

black robe.

The black-robed man also panted and stared at Quade. He said coldly, “I wasn’t expecting you to be so

resilient. However, you’ll die since I’m your opponent.”

At that moment, a black lotus silently shot out of the ground. The black lotus appeared in the sky and

released black energy.

“What?”

Quade and the black-robed man were shocked.

At that moment, the black lotus released Demonic Energy. The energy swept the surroundings and

engulfed the black-robed man.

The black Demonic Energy entered the black-robed man’s body. Suddenly, he felt like his True Energy

and Blood Essence were being swallowed up.

At that moment, he was terrified of his impending death.

“Argh! No…”

His eyes widened, and he exerted all his strength.

Although James’ Demonic Lotus was terrifying, the black-robed man was at the Immortal Ascension’s

Seventh Stair. He broke free from the Demonic Energy.

Afterward, his body flickered, and he appeared in the air. His long sword slashed the Demonic Lotus,

and a terrifying Sword Energy burst out.

Upon being struck, the Demonic Lotus transformed into black mist and quickly disappeared into the

deep pit in the ground.

James, who was hiding in the pit, spat out a mouthful of blood.

His Demonic Lotus was sliced apart, and he suffered injuries from the backlash.

At that moment, he felt a dangerous energy approaching him. His body flickered, and he quickly rushed

out of the deep pit.

After he escaped, several Sword Energies slammed into the ruins on the ground, creating a bigger

mess.

James appeared in the distance and gritted his teeth.

“That was so close.”

The two who were previously engaged in the fight noticed James.

Quade was shocked. He pointed at James in the distance and said, “Y-You’re a demon?”

The black-robed man also was frightened of James.

When the Demonic energy entangled him, he was overwhelmed with the fear of death. Fortunately, he

was strong enough to break free. Otherwise, it would have been the death of him.

James looked at the black-robed man and Quade with a frown.
