"Originally, I didn't have much time left, either I would die of old age, or breakthrough and endure one more tribulation to extend my life. Now, the Heart Demon Tribulation has arrived.
Since it is a tribulation, it is far worse than usual Devil Thoughts, and it seems I am fated to be ensnared by it.
I am also exhausted, old. Many things have already been settled before. I won't mention them again.
You must all strive to serve His Majesty faithfully in the future.
I have been loyal and dutiful all my life, and now, near death, I do not wish to perish here, nor at the hands of my colleagues.
Better to go and slay some Devils, end my life there, sparing others from harm. You need not come with me, I will go alone."
Having said this, the Old Chief Venerate transformed into a tunneling light and soared into the sky.
He flew out of the Capital City all the way, heading straight for the Abyssal Rift.
