Chapter 2522: The Appearance of an Ancient

"Aren’t you the one I encountered during the Demon Slaying Parade and the previous leader of the Demon Sealing Clan? What are you doing here with an army of Forsaken?" Yuan calmly questioned Qian Chu, deliberately calling them Forsaken rather than demons.

He then swept his cold gaze across the vast army of demons before him, continuing with a mocking smile.

"Don’t tell me you came here seeking revenge. Unfortunately for you, even if you brought every single Forsaken in existence with you today, it still wouldn’t be enough to defeat me."

"We will see about that," Qian Chu responded in a cold voice.

He raised his arm and continued, "Today, I will make you pay for humiliating me, you fake Divine Paragon!"

He aggressively swung his arm in Yuan’s direction and commanded, "Kill the fake Divine Paragon! Afterward, kill everybody present!"

In the next moment, the tens of thousands of demons rushed at Yuan.

"Assist the Divine Paragon and protect the guests!" Yan Hara shouted as she immediately flew toward Yuan, prompting the Demon Sealers to move as well.

However, before any of them could get close, Yuan’s voice rang out across the battlefield.

"Do not interfere!"

Yan Hara and the Demon Sealers instantly halted their movements before staring at Yuan with puzzled expressions, unable to understand why he would stop them when an entire army of demons stood before them.

Yuan ignored their confusion and kept his gaze fixed on Qian Chu.

A moment later, he spoke in a calm yet imposing voice.

"Since you—and likely many others—believe that I am a fraud..."

A faint smile appeared on his face as a tremendous surge of Demon Sealing Aura erupted from his body like a volcanic explosion, bursting outward in every direction.

The overwhelming aura instantly engulfed the entire venue, washing over every guest, Demon Sealer, and demon present alike.

In the blink of an eye, the heavens and earth seemed to tremble beneath its might.

"Heavens!"

The Demon Sealers exclaimed in unison, their faces filled with unmistakable awe and reverence.

Meanwhile, the demons that had been charging toward Yuan quickly slowed to a halt, with more than half of them being sealed by the aura alone.

The mere eruption of Yuan’s Demon Sealing Aura was enough to suppress and seal tens of thousands of demons on the spot, and the battlefield, which had seemed on the verge of descending into chaos only moments ago, suddenly became deathly silent.

It wasn’t just the demons who were affected by Yuan’s Demon Sealing Aura, either, as even the guests present could feel their bodies becoming stiffer while being bathed in it.

However, Yuan was just getting started, and the Demon Sealing Aura coming from him continued to intensify.

"This is a little something I learned while I was in the Demonic Realm," Yuan remarked casually.

As soon as those words left his mouth, his Demon Sealing Aura began to change.

The once-overwhelming yet stable aura became violent and chaotic, surging like a raging storm that threatened to tear apart everything in its path.

The very next moment, anguished screams erupted from the demon army.

"Aargh!"

"W-What is happening?!"

The demons writhed in agony as the transformed aura washed over them.

Then, those who had already been sealed began to crack apart. Fine fractures rapidly spread across their petrified bodies before the cracks deepened and widened.

Moments later, they shattered into countless fragments before quickly crumbling into dust that vanished into the void.

As for those who were not sealed, their bodies began to break down directly, as if their existence were being erased.

In the span of a few breaths, over two hundred thousand demons had been reduced to nothingness, and Yuan had achieved it without so much as lifting a finger.

The entire battlefield fell into stunned silence as everyone stared at Yuan with expressions of horror and disbelief. Even many of the Demon Sealers felt chills run down their spines at the sight.

For the first time, they truly understood why the demons feared and avoided him like the plague.

"Now that all of the Forsaken are gone, what are you going to do next? Fight me yourself?" Yuan asked Qian Chu, who had a look of disgust, looking like he’d just swallowed a live fly.

Eventually, Qian Chu responded in a low, desperate voice, "This isn’t over yet..."

He suddenly retrieved an object from his spatial ring and laughed madly, "Do you know what this is?! This is a treasure that will allow me to summon one of the strongest beings in the Demonic Realm—an Ancient!"

Without another word, Qian Chu activated the treasure.

The very next moment, the space before Qian Chu suddenly split apart vertically, as if cut by a sword, and a massive tear appeared in the fabric of the void itself, revealing a dark and seemingly endless abyss beyond.

An oppressive aura immediately poured from the rift, causing the hearts of everyone present to tremble.

Then, from within that abyss, a solitary figure slowly emerged.

With a single step, the mysterious individual walked out of the rift, as though the abyss itself had given birth to their existence.

The figure that emerged from the abyss was a beautiful woman with incredibly pale, flawless skin and pitch-black eyes that seemed capable of devouring all light.

An unfathomable aura surrounded her entire being, making it impossible for anyone to gauge the depths of her strength.

The moment she appeared, a suffocating pressure descended upon the world, and many of the weaker cultivators immediately collapsed unconscious, while others dropped to their knees on the spot, unable to withstand her mere presence.

Even the experts present felt their hearts tighten and their breathing grow heavy.

It was as though the woman standing there was not a living being, but a walking calamity sent to end their existence.

"What is this madness...?" Yan Hara muttered as she stared at the woman, barely able to keep herself from falling to her knees.

Yuan narrowed his eyes at this woman, trying to remain calm, but the nervousness in his gaze was noticed by many people.
