Chapter 247
"What?!" Everyone in the grand hall exclaimed in shock.
"What level of expert? Do we know their identity?" Damion’s face was terrifyingly gloomy.
"It’s... it’s..." The guard stammered for a long time before speaking in a fearful, trembling voice.
"It’s... Adam!"
"And there was also a Ninth Heaven Demon Deity present!"
A chorus of sharp gasps echoed through the grand hall, every single face was filled with utter, unmitigated shock, absolute horror was written all over the Nova Clan members, Damion’s eyeballs nearly popped out of their sockets.
This matter was far too shocking and appalling.
They truly couldn’t digest it, isn’t Adam at the Second Heaven? How could he possibly kill Elian? Let alone the fact that there was also a Ninth Heaven Demon Deity there.
"Good! Adam!"
After a long moment of silence, Damion suddenly sneered coldly, his entire body exuded an intense killing intent, causing the ambient temperature to drop significantly.
"Tell me, what exactly happened?"
The guard trembled all over. "Yes, sir!"
At this very moment, the entire Heavenly Void Mystic Realm was boiling over.
"Have you heard? An Eighth Heaven Nova Clan elder and a Ninth Heaven Demon Deity have both died!"
"When did this happen? Who did it?!"
"I just got the news! It was Adam, the number one genius of the younger generation!"
The entire Heavenly Void Mystic Realm completely exploded, countless people were fiercely debating the news.
The name Adam once again became the absolute focal point of every conversation.
Countless people marveled, Adam was simply too monstrous, killing a Nova Clan Elder wasn’t enough, he had actually killed a Demon at the Ninth Heaven of the Deity Realm.
That was one of the absolute strongest entities of the Demon Race.
With such a battle record, looking across the younger generation of the entire Heavenly Void Mystic Realm, he was absolutely unmatched.
"Is there some earth-shattering big shot backing Adam? How could he possibly accomplish such a feat?"
"Professionals have already inspected the scene, apart from the residual auras of Adam, the Nova Clan members, and that Demon, there were absolutely no traces of anyone else!"
"How is that possible?! I cannot fathom how a Second Heaven Deity managed to pull this off!"
"I heard Adam apparently laid down a peerless grand formation there, the Demon and the Nova Clan members took the bait, which is why they were trapped and killed."
"What?! He actually knows formations too?! Just what kind of peerless grand formation possesses that kind of devastating power?!"
Conversations like this were happening in almost every corner of the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm and the Mysterious Yellow Great World.
Adam’s deeds were simply far too terrifying, even though he had relied on a formation, regardless of the method, the fact that a Second Heaven Deity could achieve such a feat was absolutely mind-boggling.
...
The Demon Race’s Eastern Advancement Army Camp.
The Commander’s military tent was completely blown away once again.
It revealed a group of shivering Demon generals and the crested man radiating terrifying demonic flames.
"Tell me, what exactly happened?!"
"Why?!"
"How does a Ninth Heaven Deity die?!"
"Adam is clearly just a measly ant at the Second Heaven!"
"How could he possibly accomplish such a thing?!"
"Nothing like this has ever happened from ancient times until now!"
"How can a Second Heaven Deity kill a Ninth Heaven Deity?!"
"Speak! Why?!"
Galen burned with absolute fury, he felt as if every inch of his skin was going to explode, he simply could not accept that such a thing had happened.
Not only had a great general at the Ninth Heaven died, they had also wasted a precious opportunity with the Heavenly Court, most importantly, the Concealment Demon Bead was gone.
That was a supreme treasure of the Demon Race, with only three in existence.
Under his command, they had already lost two crucial supreme treasures, how was he supposed to explain this to the Lord?
All the generals remained dead silent, terrified of drawing his wrath, even the tall, skinny Demon cultivator in the blood-red robe wore an incredibly difficult expression.
The development of this matter had truly exceeded all their expectations.
They had considered the possibility that Adam might set up an ambush, that was exactly why they dispatched such a terrifying powerhouse at the Ninth Heaven, yet Adam had still trapped and killed him.
Just who exactly is this Adam?
...
The Nova Clan.
After learning the general sequence of events, the entire discussion hall sank into dead silence.
Why did Adam know such a heaven-shaking formation? Why was the Demon Race also there, and a Ninth Heaven expert at that? They didn’t even dare to deeply analyze the underlying reasons.
They had received their intelligence directly from the Heavenly Court, so how did the Demon Race know about it too? Thinking deeply about it was truly terrifying.
As for Adam, their hearts were filled with a complex mixture of anger, shock, and utter helplessness.
Why is a person at the Second Heaven so damn hard to kill? Can neither an Eighth Heaven nor a Ninth Heaven Deity handle him? To deal with him, do we seriously have to dispatch a Saint? If word of that got out, they would become the laughingstock of the world.
"Put the matter regarding Adam aside for now, the current situation is too complex, we cannot afford to lose any more combat strength." As Clan Head, Damion had to consider the bigger picture.
Although Adam was their mortal enemy, this entire situation was far too suspicious.
The Demon Race, the Heavenly Court, Damion locked his brows tightly, his eyes flickering with unknown thoughts.
...
Aboard the Ferry.
As the absolute center of this massive incident, Adam was currently lying comfortably on a bed, holding a book in his hands and reading with profound relish.
Every now and then, he would open his mouth to accept a peeled grape fed to him by Cecilia.
This immortal-like, carefree lifestyle couldn’t be any more comfortable.
Adam was in an excellent mood, killing two birds with one stone this time had completely exceeded his expectations.
Although he hadn’t obtained any loot, since almost everything had been blasted to smithereens, the Nova Clan and the Demon Race were definitely suffering immensely right now.
