Crack!
Another loud sound rang out, louder and more piercing than before. However, the sound did not come from the scene being displayed, but from above the barrier itself.
Two penetrating cracks had appeared on the barrier.
The scene shifted a bit more. The cracking sounds became more frequent, and more cracks appeared on the barrier.
“What… What’s happening?”
“Why is this happening?”
“The barrier is cracking!”
Everyone present was astonished.
The barrier was actually a curse set up by the four esteemed masters of the sacred land, and its strength surpassed everything that currently existed in True Life.
How could it possibly crack?
The scene shifted again, looking as if it was about to reveal the scene directly ahead.
Suddenly, the barrier exploded, and spirit energy scattered in all directions.
The cultivators standing at the forefront were caught off guard and hit by the exploding energy, immediately spewing blood from their mouths, while others were knocked backward and sent flying.
The shockwave surged, causing harm to others as well.
Zaiden and the other three also spewed blood simultaneously. Their complexions visibly paling, and their spirit energy seemingly drained in an instant, causing their bodies to fall heavily from the air.
They crashed to the ground.
Chaos ensued in an instant!
“What… What’s going on? Our barrier… It couldn’t withstand his innermost devil?” Zaiden exclaimed in astonishment, his eyes wide in disbelief.
“How is this possible, his innermost devil actually caused backlash against us!” Halbert’s expression was one of horror.
“What exactly did favonovel.com see!” Elena also looked puzzled.
The backlash was too strong, so strong that they were overwhelmed without even seeing it.
Hearing their exchange, the thousands of cultivators present turned their gazes toward Remus, looking as if they had seen a phantom.
Who could have imagined that a minor cultivator in the late Golden Stage could have such a formidable innermost devil?
What on earth was going on?
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Remus slowly opened his eyes, revealing a bitter smile.
Such scenes they were not even qualified to see, yet favonovel.com himself had to fight against the heavens. He knew that there was only a long and arduous journey ahead of him.
He did not show much reaction and continued to walk on air toward Glinda.
“Stop!” Garfield was the first to stand up, his mouth still dripping with blood, giving favonovel.com an especially ferocious appearance.
He demanded, “What exactly did you see? What is your innermost devil? Why did we suffer the backlash before we even saw it!”
It was too strange.
Although the rules for entering the sacred lands had changed over thousands of years, they remained rooted in a few key principles.
The third stage, a test employed no less than 100 times, propelled numerous individuals to fame within the sacred lands.
However, their innermost devils were never this formidable. The innermost devil of this insignificant figure before them was able to shatter the barrier and cause them backlash. It was utterly inconceivable.
Remus stopped in his tracks and counter-questioned after a moment’s thought, “Are you sure you want to know?”
“Yes, of course, we’re sure!” Garfield immediately responded.
“Quickly, tell us what your inner demon is!”
Halbert could no longer hold back, saying urgently, “You must give a clear explanation. I have never seen such a bizarre occurrence in my life. How can there be something in this world that even I cannot endure?”
Everyone’s eyes widened even further. To them, the four esteemed masters hailed from the sacred lands, the epitome of cultivation achievement.
Was there anything they couldn’t endure?
It should be impossible…
After a moment of contemplation, Remus replied, “I could tell you, but you might find it hard to believe. If you’re truly curious, we could reinstate the barrier, and I’ll navigate through the third stage once more, allowing you to witness it firsthand.”
Having already endured humiliation, revealing the truth might only invite further scorn from them. It seemed better to let them witness it for themselves.
