“What… What kind of monster is this?” Upon seeing the Celestial Devourer, Trystan was instantly taken aback!
He was still unaware that it was precisely because of the Celestial Devourer that he had survived the lightning tribulation, thereby extending his lifespan!
“Mr. Pruitt, don’t be afraid, this is the Celestial Devourer, it won’t harm you!” Jared hurriedly explained, but he was also quite curious. Why did the Celestial Devourer suddenly come out?
Jared was taken aback as he saw the Devouring Beast heading toward the old man’s soul remnant.
The Celestial Devourer had the ability to consume everything. If it were to swallow the old man’s soul remnant, it would be the end!
“Little one, come back!” Jared roared, but it seemed as though the Devouring Beast was completely ignoring his words!
Upon seeing the Celestial Devourer, the old man’s soul remnant was momentarily taken aback. He then extended his hand, astonishingly caressing the Celestial Devourer!
The Celestial Devourer lay docile on the ground, making no move to attack the old man’s soul remnant!
That scene left Jared utterly dumbfounded!
“Such a familiar scent. This beast’s aura is so familiar…” the old man muttered to himself!
Celestial Devourer extended its tongue, ready to lick the elder. However, it found that it couldn’t touch him at all. The elder was a soul remnant. Although visible, he was untouchable!
Trystan also noticed that the Celestial Devourer seemed very familiar with the old man, so he curiously asked, “Mr. Chance, it seems like your spirit beast is quite familiar with this elder!”
Jared didn’t utter a word. Instead, he was intently watching the Celestial Devourer following the old man!
Suddenly, it seemed as if Jared had thought of something, his face filled with shock as he exclaimed, “Could it be that you are the Vermilion Demon Lord from level nine celestial realm? The Celestial Devourer is your mount, which is why you found it familiar. Moreover, the Celestial Devourer is also accustomed to your aura, which is why it emerged from the storage ring after your aura burst forth!”
Jared recalled the time when he was in the Celestial Battlefield when he encountered Fire Spirit Lord. Fire Spirit Lord had mentioned that the Celestial Devourer was the mount of Vermilion Demon Lord. However, there had been no signs of Vermilion Demon Lord ever visiting Ethereal Realm. Thus, how could the beast core of the Celestial Devourer appear in Ethereal Realm?
It seemed that Vermilion Demon Lord had been slain by someone. His residual spirit was suppressed and trapped within Demonia Mountain, specifically in a cave. It was safe to assume that his mount, the Celestial Devourer, must have also met its end!
The beast egg that Jared received was likely laid by the Celestial Devourer just before its death. By a stroke of fate, it ended up in Jared’s possession!
It was clear that Vermilion Demon Lord had been suppressed beneath Demonia Mountain, likely before the Celestial Battle had taken place.
From that perspective, it seemed that the legend of Demonia Mountain must indeed be true. Vermilion Demon Lord must be the great demon who, according to legend, was suppressed under Demonia Mountain!
As for the true extent of Vermilion Demon Lord’s power, Jared had no idea as Fire Spirit Lord had never mentioned it to him!
However, living in the level nine celestial realm, one’s strength would certainly not be weak!
“Vermilion Demon Lord? What kind of demon is this, Mr. Chance? I’ve never heard of it before…” Curiously, Trystan asked!
The old man himself looked utterly bewildered. “You say I am the Vermilion Demon Lord, living in the level nine celestial realm? How did you know?”
The elder couldn’t recall who he was. Upon hearing the name “Vermilion Demon Lord,” he found it utterly unfamiliar!
“It was during the Celestial Battlefield when I heard a person named Fire Spirit Lord say that the Celestial Devourer was your mount. Since the Celestial Devourer is so close to you, you must be Vermilion Demon Lord!” Jared recounted the events he had heard to the elder!
The elder pondered for a moment, but it seemed as if he couldn’t recall anything. Consequently, he shook his head and said, “I don’t know who Fire Spirit Lord is, nor do I know who I am!” After he finished speaking, his aura gradually receded. The Celestial Devourer circled around the old man’s soul remnant once, then swiftly returned to the storage ring of Jared!
