Serpent Ancestor

Dragon Soul Descent—this was the first time Xu Hei had ever used this move, and it was his most lethal attack.

No probing, just the strongest card right from the start.

Xu Hei understood that he had to completely obliterate this place in the shortest time possible, before the enemy’s main forces returned!

”Buzz!”

From within the Dragon Tomb, a phantom shadow floated out, traversing the netherworld and returning to the real world.

The phantom of the Dragon Tomb vanished, and that dragon soul entered Xu Hei’s body.

”You, young one, are the one who awakened me?”

The voice was like a thunderous boom, akin to the voice of a deity.

Xu Hei’s heart trembled, but he still replied respectfully, ”May I know your esteemed name, senior?”

”I am the Storm Thunder Dragon, Lei Xuan! Hmph, this Dragon Soul Descent is quite interesting, to think it can awaken me from the Dragon Tomb. It must be an inheritance from a supreme ancestral dragon.””You are quite fortunate to have summoned me, Lei Xuan,” the voice said arrogantly.

”Alright, my time is limited, so I’ll borrow your body for now!”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Hei immediately felt an overwhelming force enter his sea of consciousness, spreading out from its center.

Xu Hei felt his body become light, losing control over it, but in exchange, he gained boundless, terrifying power!

”Boom!!”

Xu Hei’s bones trembled violently, and a torrent of true essence emerged from the dragon vein, accompanied by a deafening roar. This essence carried the terrifying might of thunder and the power of storms.

This was the power of the Storm Thunder Dragon, Lei Xuan!

”Unfortunately, your body is too fragile to withstand the power of my laws. Otherwise, I could flatten everything within a hundred thousand miles!”

A voice of arrogance echoed in Xu Hei’s sea of consciousness.

”What are laws?” Xu Hei asked.

Lei Xuan did not answer.

At this moment, hundreds of thousands of insect swarms surged forward. The Spirit-Eating Ants extended their sharp mandibles, and the Ghostface Stone Spiders spewed webs and poisonous mist, enveloping Xu Hei.

From all directions, the insect swarms closed in, surrounding Xu Hei, ready to tear him apart.

Just then.

Xu Hei opened his eyes, and his gaze changed completely—one eye was dark green, with storms howling, and the other was blue-purple, with thunder roaring.

His eyes held no emotion, only an indifference to all beings and a domineering presence that stood above the heavens.

”Rip!”

The void tore apart, storms exploded, and thunder roared. In Xu Hei’s gaze, there was a power capable of destroying the world!

Just a single glance made all the insects freeze, even the distant Insect Emperor showed a look of horror and immediately ordered, ”Attack, kill him!”

The Insect Emperor’s orders were transmitted through divine sense, reaching each insect’s sea of consciousness, instantly controlling them.

The insect swarm hesitated for just a moment before charging at Xu Hei again.

”Swish, swish, swish...”

Poison gas spread, webs covered the sky, and Xu Hei remained expressionless, saying, ”I am the storm!”

”Boom, boom, boom, boom...”

In an instant, Xu Hei’s figure disappeared, transforming into a violently rotating tornado, a storm mixed with lightning, a blue-purple thunderstorm.

All the webs that came close were shredded to nothing, and the poison gas was blown away without a trace, rendering all attacks ineffective.

Xu Hei’s body was wracked with pain, but he showed no change in expression. The storm flashed and charged toward the insect army.

”Shred, shred, shred...”

Wherever the thunderstorm passed, it was like a meat grinder entering the battlefield, shredding each insect into nothingness. Any Ghostface Stone Spider that came close was reduced to nothing.

”Use divine sense attacks!” the Insect Emperor ordered again. Thousands of insects stopped their actions, and invisible ripples turned into blades, slashing toward Xu Hei.

But as they neared the storm, they were also shredded clean, even the divine sense could be obliterated.

”What kind of divine ability is this?” the Insect Emperor was stunned.

At this moment, all the insect swarms felt a vast heavenly might emanating from the tornado that Xu Hei had become, as if facing a heavenly tribulation, exploding in their minds, making them feel insignificant.

”Boom!!”

Xu Hei’s figure leaped, the tornado tearing through the void, shooting toward the Insect Emperor. Along the way, lightning struck, destroying all stone eggs and leaving a field of insect corpses.

”Protect me! Protect me!” the Insect Emperor cried out in terror.

This command could only be understood by the insect swarm, but the fear in her eyes was visible to the naked eye.

”Crack, crack, crack...”

Where Xu Hei passed, lightning exploded, leaving deep pits, countless insect corpses charred and torn to pieces. Ji Ying was so frightened that he turned to flee, but Xu Hei caught him from afar, pulling him into the storm, where a wretched scream echoed.

The rumbling grew closer, more insects surged forward, trying to stop Xu Hei’s advance, but like moths to a flame, they died in droves, leaving only a field of remains.

”Rumble!!”

Even the newly built cave was shaking violently, on the verge of collapse.

Not just the cave, even the void here was about to collapse, with countless cracks appearing, shocking and terrifying.

However, Xu Hei’s physical body was also in unbearable pain, his skin bursting with countless blood marks, but as soon as they appeared, they were scorched by lightning, forcibly stopping the bleeding.

Five thousand insect soldiers, like stepping on a group of ants, were destroyed by Xu Hei with overwhelming force, his advance unstoppable.

Seeing the defeat was inevitable, the Insect Emperor made a decisive move, flying out of her bloated shell, turning into a black shadow, and fleeing like lightning into the distance.

As for the shell she shed, it immediately shriveled, becoming a lifeless white lump.

Xu Hei waved his hand, collecting the white lump.

”Hmph, trying to escape?”

Lei Xuan’s voice came from Xu Hei’s mouth.

Seeing the Insect Emperor slip into a crevice, Xu Hei, bathed in lightning, his dragon scales dyed blue-purple, a whirlwind rose around him.

The next second!

”Boom!!”

Xu Hei charged into the crevice, destroying everything within a hundred-zhang radius.

He didn’t use Earth Concealment Escape, but rather bulldozed a path through sheer force.

Even the cave dwelling here couldn’t withstand it, leaving a large open space, this destructive power surpassing even Jiang Nine Phoenix at the time.

”Whoosh!”

Wind and thunder, the two fastest concepts, under Xu Hei’s full-speed pursuit, the fleeing black shadow ahead drew closer, and in the blink of an eye, Xu Hei grabbed it with his dragon claw.

Upon closer inspection, it was a spider.

It had the torso and head of a human woman, but with eight long spider legs, a large abdomen, and a ghost face on its back.

Through Huangfu Duanlong’s memory inheritance, Xu Hei immediately knew this was the Ghostface Spider Emperor, a semi-transformed spider emperor.

However, Huangfu Duanlong’s knowledge of insects was limited, only knowing the name.

”Who are you? How can you be so strong! This is impossible!”

In a moment of crisis, the Insect Emperor spoke human words, her voice sharp.

With the Insect Emperor captured, the distant insects suddenly sped up, recklessly burning their lives to stop Xu Hei.

Xu Hei’s expression remained unchanged, his palm exerting slight pressure, and the Insect Emperor let out a wretched scream. Her face twisted with malice, she launched a divine sense attack, but Xu Hei’s eyes flashed with lightning, shattering the divine sense directly.

”Ah!!”

The Insect Emperor screamed again, her spirit completely withered.
