Serpent Ancestor

Everyone held their breath, eyes fixed on the void warship. But after just one glance, they quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look directly, showing utmost reverence as if mortals were facing an emperor, wishing they could press their heads to the ground.

On the ship’s hull, a large character ”Jiang” was engraved. Just this single character carried such an oppressive force that it made everyone’s hearts tremble with fear.

On the deck stood two figures, their appearances indistinct, with no detectable aura.

Yet, just by standing there, they made everyone lower their brows and bow their heads, as if witnessing gods descending to the mortal world.

”Lord of the Spirit Realm, we have constructed a teleportation array here with six channels, allowing the fastest direct travel to any star!” Blood Knife Patriarch said respectfully.

Everyone stood in two lines, one on each side, in a grand welcoming gesture to greet the cultivators from the Spirit Realm heading to the teleportation array.

On the deck.

Jiang Bufan glanced at Mo Xingtian and said, ”Mo Xingtian, was this your idea?”

Jiang Bufan found it amusing that such a grand welcome was actually Mo Xingtian’s idea.

A person who had been a servant all his life, descending once to the mortal world, was worshipped by the masses, treated like a deity.And Mo Xingtian seemed to enjoy this, reveling in it.

”Having mortals welcome us can reduce the suppressive force of the mortal realm,” Mo Xingtian said.

”Who told you that?” Jiang Bufan asked with a half-smile.

”Mortals carry the will of the mortal realm. I read this in the Jiang family’s ancient texts; how could it be false?” Mo Xingtian seemed a bit displeased.

Jiang Bufan sneered, shook his head, and said no more.

This ragtag group representing the will of the mortal realm? Ridiculous! The person who wrote those ancient texts probably didn’t even believe it themselves.

Mo Xingtian, having been a servant for so long, enjoyed being worshipped, which Jiang Bufan could understand. For someone who might stand on equal footing with him in the future, Jiang Bufan wouldn’t bother to expose anything.

”First, head to Divine Continent Star and wipe out that sect directly!” Mo Xingtian said calmly.

”Yes! I’ll open the channel to Divine Continent Star right away,” Blood Knife Patriarch said excitedly.

At that moment, Blood Knife Patriarch seemed to notice something. He took out a set of soul lamps, and the soul flames on them were rapidly extinguishing, one after another.

”What happened?” Mo Xingtian frowned.

Blood Knife Patriarch quickly said, ”Senior, our Blood Refining Sect’s headquarters has been attacked. The attacker is likely Xu Hei...”

To break through the sect-protecting formation so quickly and kill so many, all of whom were experts of the Blood Refining Sect! Who else could have such ability but Xu Hei?

Half a year ago, they had learned about the situation on Divine Continent Star and Xu Hei’s terrifying combat power.

This further solidified their current plan: to escape into the depths of the void and meet with the powerful beings from the Spirit Realm in advance! There was no safer approach than this!

”Is it him?” Mo Xingtian’s eyes flashed. This was a perfect opportunity.

”Change direction, head to your headquarters.”

”Alright, open the void channel to Flame Star!”

Blood Knife Patriarch quickly manipulated the formation plate, altering the trajectory of the spatial channel.

Mo Xingtian directly snatched the formation plate from his hand, instantly refining it for his own use, stabilizing the spatial channel in an instant.

Such a display left Blood Knife Patriarch dumbfounded.

This was the power of a great being from the Spirit Realm! Omnipotent and all-knowing. With this person taking action, how could Xu Hei survive? How could the Divine Puppet Sect survive?

Clinging tightly to this powerful ally, they could sweep the Seven Stars clean, and their Blood Refining Sect would reign supreme!

Thinking of this, Blood Knife Patriarch, Ren Pizi, Lady White Bone, and other demonic cultivators present all beamed with joy.

They never worried about the powerful beings from the Spirit Realm turning against them. First, there was no conflict of interest, and second, excessive killing in the mortal realm would have negative consequences.

On the contrary, nurturing a loyal force would be more convenient for future actions.

In the past, they might have had many considerations, but now, they just needed to hold onto this powerful ally.

Mo Xingtian stepped into the teleportation array, entering the void channel. With a single hand, he tore open the space, heading towards Flame Star at the fastest speed.

...

Flame Star, headquarters of the Blood Refining Sect.

Xu Hei descended from the sky, standing outside the mountain gate. He took out a map to confirm; this was indeed the place!

Without further ado, Xu Hei stepped into the sky, his body like a meteor descending, landing on the top of the sect-protecting formation of the Blood Refining Sect.

”Boom!!!”

Like a thunderclap on a clear day, a meteor descending from the sky, stars falling from the nine heavens, heavenly thunder shaking the earth. The sect-protecting formation of the Blood Refining Sect, centered on his foot, revealed countless intersecting cracks, the sound of cracking echoing continuously, and the formation pillars of the sect bent in unison.

”Not good, we’re under attack!”

Cries of alarm echoed within the sect.

But in just a breath’s time, Xu Hei increased his force, directly stomping through the sect-protecting formation of the Blood Refining Sect, descending like a divine weapon onto the central plaza of the sect.

”Boom!!”

Xu Hei’s descent caused a massive earthquake, turning the plaza into ruins. Terrifying spatial cracks spread out, countless buildings collapsed, and numerous disciples were caught in the aftermath, exploding into blood mist.

Just the shockwave from Xu Hei’s descent left the Blood Refining Sect in ruins.

Everyone rushed out of their closed-door cultivation, gathering around the sect’s plaza, their eyes fixed on the ruins at the center, filled with horror as if witnessing gods and demons.

”Who dares trespass into my Blood Refining Sect?”

A Grand Elder of the sect emerged from the forbidden area, blood staining the sky wherever he passed. This was the Blood Robe Daoist, who had been in closed-door cultivation, his lifespan exhausted, but with a revival pill given by Mo Xingtian, he successfully extended his life by two hundred years.

The foundation of the Blood Refining Sect, with Mo Xingtian’s blessing, had become countless times stronger than before.

However, he did not join the welcoming party because his lifespan was limited, and he could only stay in the sect’s blood pool, soaking day and night to slow the loss of lifespan and maintain his energy.

”Who else but that demon Xu Hei?”

Another voice came from the side, belonging to a woman with a sharp voice. She wore a yellow robe with a blood-red sun embroidered on her chest, similar to the Blood Robe Daoist’s situation, also unsuitable for going out.

”Xu Hei?”

The Blood Robe Daoist’s face changed slightly. He quickly formed a seal, his body turning into a mass of sticky blood, merging into the ground, drilling downward at high speed.

The yellow-robed woman was equally swift, burrowing underground, fleeing in the same direction.

”Two at the Great Perfection of the Divine Transformation Stage, perfect for a warm-up.”

Xu Hei activated the White Emperor Sutra, concentrating spiritual qi in his legs. With a casual movement, he shattered the void beneath his feet, creating a large area of cracks.

Immediately, Xu Hei’s speed surged, and in an instant, he reached the tails of the two, reaching out to grab, tearing open the space ahead, and leaving deep grooves on their backs.
