Chapter 721 Against the Shadow Immortal

"How did he get here so quickly?!"

"There should be a few Demon Eyes monitoring that place! Why are we not warned about this?!"

"Not good... We need at least six Demon Saints to deal with this irregularity..."

The Demon Saints reacted as they saw the familiar figure and felt Shadow Essence in the surroundings getting thicker.

There was no doubt that they are facing the Shadow Immortal. It was the very being they had sought to avoid!

However, he was now standing before them in all his ominous glory.

All the Demons looked at him as if his presence was like a void that swallowed light, a silence that screamed in their minds!

The air around him warped, the shadows were bending to his will, and his eyes—were like two abysses that promised oblivion—fixed upon them!

This being didn't speak, but his aura was already starting to spread as if he wanted to ensure that they would not be able to escape!

"Shadow Immortal! You think that we're afraid!"

"We just have to delay you here, and your haven will be destroyed by other Demon Saints!"

"Hahaha! That's right! Even if you can corner us here and perhaps defeat us after spending a lof of time, you will not have any home to return to!"

The Demon Saints threatened hoping that it was enough to send the Shadow Immortal away.

However, this mysterious being was unmoved by their words.

There was a silent assertion of power, a profound dread that permeated the atmosphere.

"Tsk..." One of the Demon Saints couldn't help but click his tongue. It seemed that they couldn't avoid a battle this time.

The Demon Saints, once confident in their might, now faced the embodiment of their deepest fears.

"Don't falter... The reports might be exaggerated. If we're careful enough, there's no way we'll be defeated. We are the Demon Saints... We hunt Immortals for their Divinity! This irregularity is not that different!"

"Mhmm... The only difference is that he mastered the laws of the Shadow... He might even be better than the Shadow Sentinels... Once we get used to his tricks, we will still win against him."

The Demon Saints drew their confidence with the reasonings they believed to be accurate.

On the other hand, seeing the Demons unable to react after appearing above them, the Shadow Immortal showed a smile on his face.

He knew that he had successfully instilled fear in them!

He was satisfied that the spread of his influence was like a shroud over the mountainside! The fear he invoked was more potent than any curse or disease!

***

In the meantime, Vale also concluded his assessment of their strength. The Demon Saints certainly grew stronger as the Will of the Human Realm seemed to have weakened a lot, and it could no longer suppress foreigners or invaders from the other Realm.

Obviously, this was not a good thing since other Realm aside from the Abyss Realm might also think of causing chaos in this world.

Unfortunately, he had no way of helping this Will of the Human Realm as it seemed to be an intangible thing that guides the Human Realm itself.

This wasn't what they expected to face when they silently came out of the small Rift they had made. Their confidence wavered for a bit, but the command of the Demon Saints spurred them forward.

"We will handle the Shadow Immortal! All the Demon Captains will work together to bring down those Undead Creatures!"

"They possessed Corrupted Divinity, but with your affinity to corruption, you won't be defeated so easily! Overwhelm them with your numbers!"

The Demon Saints advised.

Soon, the Mummy Lord advanced, its bandages unfurled to reveal cryptic glyphs that sapped the strength of any demon that dared approach!

The Abyss Knight charged, its blade was like the darkness itself that could rip through demonic armor as if it were cloth!

The Ghoul King, on the other hand, summoned its ghoulish horde, a horde of lesser Ghouls appeared that swept over the Captains, their forms dissolving upon contact.

Nonetheless, the Demon Captains weren't pushovers either! They were willing to sacrifice their lives as they fought in desperation!

***

Meanwhile, Vale confronted the Demon Saints with a cold resolve.

"Come at me... You have nowhere to escape Demon Saints..." Vale spoke in a deep voice.

His Shadow Divinity surged, and soon, he became one with the darkness.

Shadows combined into tendrils, lashing out like whips with a will of their own.

"Who is going to escape?!"

"You're the one trapped with us, Shadow Immortal!"

The Demon Saints, masters of Corruption, may have found themselves outmatched by the sheer force of Vale's control over the darkness, but they were proud beings!

The battle continued as the battle between darkness and Corruption spread in a huge area threatening to involve the nearby villages and towns...

If not for Vale's control, the Corruption would've killed many innocent people already!

As the Demon Saints unleashed their Corruption Energy, a maelstrom of chaos that sought to engulf Vale had appeared!

"This Corruption is getting weaker and weaker... I guess you Demon Saints weren't that great to begin with." Vale muttered as he felt his body being slightly affected by the Corruption.

Well, it was actually quite impressive that his Incorruptible Body was being affected to a certain degree. However, that was it... Vale believed that their attacks that tried to corrupt his body were pretty much useless.

Apparently, with every assault they made, Vale's shadows absorbed the impact, dissipating most of the energy into the darkness...

"You not being affected?" One of the Demon Saints finally realized.

The other two Demon Saints, realizing the futility of their efforts, fought with daggers made of the Dimensional Creature's bones that were gifted to them by the Demon Lord!

"Kill him!"

They had no other choice as they engaged in close combat! With these weapons that could even slice through the fabric of space, their confidence grew!

They clashed with Vale as they also imbued their daggers with the power of the Abyss Realm!

They were desperate to bring down the Shadow Immortal!
