At the same time.
In a deep, dark forest completely drained of vitality, broken trees dotting the ground and a stench of blood filling the air for thousands of miles.
Demonic Energy spread throughout the forest, and occasionally, pained howls could be heard echoing across the land, like the wails of ghosts and gods.
In the midst of it all floated a dark robed figure, cross-legged and constantly absorbing the essence and blood around him, the ground around him piled with the bones of countless Demon Beasts and Demons originally scattered around the forest.
Kong Junyu slowly opened his blood red eyes, exhaling a breath of chaotic Demonic Energy.
His pale face gained a slight luster, torn robes billowing in the eerie winds.
His injuries had already healed at this point by absorbing the blood and essence of many Demon Beasts below the Golden Core Realm and thousands of Demons at the Golden Core Realm and Void Refinement Realm.
