Worldly Overlord

If it was any other person in the underground world or any of the two worlds that were engulfed in this flame, they would have turned into ashes.

However, the youngster just stood there like the whole thing wasn't new to him, he didn't even budge a little. His stance gave one the assumption that he was already used to black fire.

The black fire burned the youth so badly that steams were coming out from his body. And a few minutes later, the flame began reducing till it returned to its original size.

The white mask, the youngster was putting on, was gone, and a glorious face was revealed. For some reason, his robe didn't get burnt, there weren't even any wrinkles around it.

"So many impurities, thankfully I purified it." the youth was of course Devon.

To get the purest form of energy, Devon decided to purify this life energy he possessed. And his decision was right, cause when he began purifying life energy he could feel his energy was more refined and robust.

Presently that came in handy and because of the absence of the Devil, he couldn't absorb celestial energy and cosmic energy.

Though there wasn't any hope of absorbing celestial energy anymore there was a chance for cosmic energy. Cosmic energy could be formed by absorbing the life energy from a human.

However, he needed to absorb every single life energy from that human before he could then convert it to cosmic energy.

Devon started purifying that life energy when he noticed the number of impurities present in humans' bodies. It was widely known that the presence of impurities in any being body if not removed quickly would affect the growth of the powerhouse.

The cosmic energy contained in that purified life energy was ten times thicker than the previous one. Though the amount of energy that would be left after purification was little, it was worth it.

Devon brought out another white mask from his storage ring and wore it. He approached the gate and slammed his fist against it.

*BOOOMMMMM!!!!!!"

The huge gate exploded, shattering into pieces.

Disciples of the Greenland sect were all walking around the sect compound. For the disciples, today was like no other day as it was their annual sect competition, both outer, inner, and core disciples of the sect were standing before a green stage.

The core disciples refused to stay together with the inner and outer disciples, so they were standing in another area and the same applied to the inner disciples.

In all sects, the outer court disciples were looked down upon.

Though the Greenland sect was merely a bronze rank sect in the underground world, it had several disciples and resources. It couldn't be considered the best among the other bronze rank, but at the same time, it wasn't the weakest. So, it couldn't be underestimated.

In the underground world, the sect, families, and organizations were ranked in five categories and the Greenland sect was ranked at the bottom. It was a bronze rank sect.

Nevertheless, it was still a top-notch sect.

The explosion of their gate, frightened the disciples greatly, as such a thing had never happened. The Greenland sect wasn't the strongest among the other sect nearby, however, it was the safest. Which was why most people joined the sect.

As soon as the green gate exploded, seven elders from the outer court rushed forward to see what just happened or who dared to cause trouble in the sect knowing the kind of background the Greenland sect had.

They could hear the footstep of the person coming closer to them, till it came to a halt and Devon appeared in front of them.

All the disciples and elders rushed forward, seeing the person had just walked in through the white mask he was putting on made him look mysterious, they all had the same thought going on in their mind. Does this person not value his life anymore.

"The two guards are gone." one of the elders who rushed at Devon said as he realized they were no sign of the guards at the gate anymore.

It was then the rest of the elders realized that his words were true, "Mister, who are you? Is there perhaps any misunderstanding between us."

One of the core elders stepped forward and asked Devon. The elders were no fool, there knew that for someone to dare blast their sect door that way he was either very confident in his strength or he wanted to throw his life away.

"I can't say it's a misunderstanding, the thing is I'm here to annihilate your sect," Devon said.

He then waved his hand, a huge barrier appeared and sealed any possible exit for the Greenland sect. The barrier covered the entire sect and as long as it remained, there was no way for escape for the sect members.

A frown appeared on the elder's face, whether it was the mask on this person's face, his attire, or the aura emanating out of him, everything felt odd to them. Though the youth seemed harmless, they knew he wasn't.

The elders then signaled the core disciples to send the inner and outer disciples away from the sect. And also they should inform the rest of the elders and most, especially the sect masters.

"No rush, everyone from this sect will die today," Devon said, stomping his right foot on the ground.

The disciples who were about to leave the scene became completely stiff. They all couldn't believe what was happening, it was as if they took another step forward then they would perish instantly.

"Dieee!!!!!!" the elders could feel the pressure that was pressed on their disciples was horrifying and when one of them could not take it anymore, he rushed himself at Devon.

However, in the face of the incoming attack, Devon gently raised his arm and flicked his finger towards the elder.

*BOOM*

A beam of black light flashed in front of everyone.

The black light went at a very speed and pierced through the elder even before he could get to Devon. A large hole was created in the elder chest as the black light went through him.

And within a few seconds, he stumbled straight to the ground.

With a single move from Devon, an outer court elder was annihilated, and the attack was launched from his index finger. The elder didn't even have time to let out a cry of misery. He was dead just like that.

"Who.....exactly...are you!?" one could hear a faint trembling from one of the outer court elders. They weren't much difference in strength in most of the outer court elder and seeing how the that beam of light just took out one of them, they were sure that it could do the same to them.

The way things appeared, only the inner and core elders stood a chance against that black light.

Devon sneered in response, he raised his arm again, flicking his finger towards the elder who had just spoken.

That beam of black light from earlier appeared once again but this time it wasn't a single beam, there were eight beams. The beams of light went after their respective targets, leaving them with large holes in their chest.

And just like that, nine outer court elders had fallen.
