Serpent Ancestor

No one understood Bai Luo’s actions. If he wasn’t going to make a move, then why did he come here?

If he had the same intentions as them, why didn’t he hide himself?

The outrageous actions were yet to come.

Next, Bai Luo took out a large number of formation flags, planting them on the nearby mountain peaks, and set up a puppet battle formation, but the direction was wrong—it was facing outward.

Was he protecting Xu Hei?

”Has the Nine-Headed Snake gone mad? Protecting a demon? What a joke!” White Tiger was incredulous.

”What benefit does this bring him?” Rosefinch was equally puzzled.

”Is he afraid that the treasures on Xu Hei will be snatched by outsiders, so he wants to keep them for himself?” Qilin considered a possibility.

Although this explanation was still far-fetched, it was the only possibility.

Bai Luo might have sensed that there were people lurking nearby, and since he couldn’t get it, he decided no one else should either.”Seeking death!” Qilin’s face darkened as he said, ”In that case, we’ll have to personally claim the bounty of one hundred million Spirit Stones.”

Tianwang had made a wrong move, completely unprepared for such a fool to think of protecting Xu Hei.

How was this different from seeking death?

”Notify the Ancient Tomb Sect, we’ll deal with the Nine-Headed Snake first, then they’ll handle Xu Hei. Move in the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn!” Qilin transmitted the order.

”Understood!” White Tiger quickly made the arrangements.

Xu Hei’s situation was unclear.

Although he had lost his Divine Sense, his vitality remained. Just being near him exuded a strong sense of danger, which was why Tianwang hesitated to act.

As assassins, they were very sensitive to danger.

However, the Ancient Tomb Sect had long harbored hatred for Xu Hei. He had their Three-Life Coffin, and they were a group of fearless madmen, who would act without hesitation.

…………

Bai Luo sat silently atop a desolate mountain, his eyes closed, yet he could sense several obscure presences in the shadows.

Very strong, not weaker than him at all!

Even though he had obtained the inheritance of the Mo family in the Void Realm, he wasn’t fully confident.

No! His confidence was very small!

”They’re here!”

Bai Luo opened his eyes and saw a beam of light, dazzling to the extreme, shooting toward him.

It was Qilin, the strongest from Tianwang on the Outer Battlefield!

Qilin was a man wearing a silver helmet, every inch of his armor was a sharp weapon, any part of which could kill.

On the Outer Battlefield, few had seen him in action, because those who had were mostly dead.

”Boom boom boom...”

Suddenly, a mechanical puppet formation appeared under Qilin’s feet, forming a labyrinth-like array pattern in front of him, with countless puppets crashing toward him.

At the same time, White Tiger also flashed out, but before she could make a move, the space around her instantly froze, like a block of frozen ice. Behind her, a silver-haired girl clenched her fist, aiming at her.

Rosefinch also encountered an opponent, a scholar-like cultivator chanting incantations, attacking with various characters.

However, they were secondary; the main battlefield was still between Qilin and Bai Luo.

”Crack crack crack...”

Without any fancy moves, Qilin raised his hand and struck the puppets, causing all the nearby puppets to disintegrate on their own.

Bai Luo remained unfazed, casting beans to form soldiers, and two golden giants charged toward Qilin.

”Mo family’s golden men?!”

Qilin squinted his eyes, his figure flickering continuously, and with dazzling techniques, he struck one of the golden men, which quickly disintegrated into fragments scattered on the ground.

”So you obtained the Mo family’s inheritance!”

”The ancient Mo family is a prestigious lineage, yet you protect a demon! The Mo family must be blind to choose you as their inheritor!”

Qilin’s fingertips flicked again, and the other golden man also disintegrated.

However, the just-disintegrated golden man automatically reassembled, stood up again, and various bizarre weapon ports emerged from its body, unleashing a barrage of fire, thunder, wind blades, ice balls... a chaotic storm of Divine Abilities covering Qilin entirely.

”Boom boom boom...”

A series of explosions, and Qilin emerged from the barrage unscathed.

”Aiding a tyrant, you’re an accomplice! Mo family’s inheritor, is this your Dao?” Qilin questioned.

For a cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Elemental Infant stage, the key to breaking through to Divine Transformation lies in the Dao.

Whether evil or righteous, each has their own Dao, so when cultivators clash, they also use verbal attacks to disrupt the opponent’s Dao heart.

This tactic was undeniably vicious.

However, Bai Luo gave no response, only intensifying his assault.

Amidst their confrontation.

A ghostly figure appeared near Xu Hei, the hook-nosed elder of the Ancient Tomb Sect, Daoist Minghe.

Without hesitation, the Star-Moon Sword stabbed toward him.

”Capture!”

Daoist Minghe took out a purple wooden sword box, which exerted a strong suction force on the Star-Moon Sword.

In the blink of an eye, the Star-Moon Sword was sucked into the sword box. The box shook violently, and the sound of sword cries and impacts against the wooden panels could be heard from within.

”Heh, this sword box of mine is specifically designed to deal with flying swords. Although it’s not as high-grade as you, it’s more than enough to suppress you for a while.”

Daoist Minghe sneered coldly, glanced at the vacant-eyed Xu Hei, and took out a soul banner, planting it on the ground.

Then, he clapped his hands and shouted:

”Yellow Spring lends a path, Hundred Ghosts Night Parade!”

In an instant, the world darkened, ghostly winds rose, as if the gates of the netherworld had opened, and Yellow Spring water surged in Xu Hei’s area.

From the soul banner, a large number of ghosts flew out, numbering over a hundred, drilling toward Xu Hei’s forehead.

This was his second prepared Magical Treasure, the Hundred Ghosts Soul Snatching Banner, specifically targeting bodies without Divine Sense, allowing them to be easily controlled and refined into corpse ghosts!

The thought of a Flood Dragon’s corpse ghost was thrilling.

Daoist Minghe’s eyes gleamed with intense intent, controlling the ghosts to enter the body, but found that Xu Hei’s sea of consciousness was somewhat solid, unable to penetrate.

A large group of ghosts surrounded Xu Hei’s sea of consciousness, unable to enter.

”Everyone, join in!” Daoist Minghe shouted.

”Whoosh whoosh whoosh...”

Five more cultivators from the Ancient Tomb Sect appeared behind him, his disciples, whom he trusted absolutely, because they all bore his blood soul curse.

All five attacked together, using Divine Sense to control the ghosts, desperately trying to drill into Xu Hei’s head.

They couldn’t get in, simply couldn’t!

Everyone was shocked, this was a body without a soul, yet they couldn’t penetrate the sea of consciousness, it was simply unbelievable!

With Daoist Minghe and five disciples attacking, they could break into the sea of consciousness and successfully body snatch even a living person at the Great Perfection of the Elemental Infant stage.
