Serpent Ancestor

Back when the Flame Demon Ancestor wielded the Solar Essence Fire, it was nothing compared to the behemoth before him now; it was like comparing an ant to an elephant.

All flames undergo a process from a spark to a nascent form and finally to maturity. The flames Xu Hei had encountered were mostly sparks; he had never seen a mature form.

Gazing at the colossal entity before him, Xu Hei swallowed hard. Even flames from the mortal realm, once matured, could possess the power to destroy the heavens and the earth. In such a harsh environment, Xu Hei had no chance of victory.

”Forget it, let’s retreat for now.”

Xu Hei quickly backed away, keeping a safe distance and maneuvering around it.

Suddenly, a strong sense of danger surged in Xu Hei’s heart, as if something was about to strike him from behind.

Without hesitation, Xu Hei took out the Demon God Cauldron and hid inside.

”Boom!!!”

Abruptly, a multicolored laser beam shot from the distant void, striking directly at Xu Hei’s location, sending the Demon God Cauldron flying.

Even the nearby space was shattered, creating a broken abyss, and the sunlight was scattered, dimming significantly.A hundred thousand miles away.

Jiang Bufan stood on a battleship, accompanied by five distinct figures, each representing one of the five elemental attributes: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, forming a mystical battle formation.

This was Jiang Bufan’s ultimate weapon, the Five Elemental Heavenly Capital Corpse.

”Hit by the Five Elemental Corpse Cannon, even with a heavenly treasure for protection, that person won’t be able to move. Now, as long as we seize that treasure, it’ll be within our grasp!”

Jiang Bufan raised his hand, and the Five Elemental Heavenly Capital Corpse simultaneously shot out a beam of light, traversing a hundred thousand miles at lightning speed, reaching near the Demon God Cauldron, and binding it with the light.

Inside the Demon God Cauldron, Xu Hei felt the space outside was sealed.

He couldn’t get out, nor could he extend his Divine Sense, as if a thick cocoon had enveloped the Demon God Cauldron, layer upon layer.

”How did they lock onto me?”

”From a hundred thousand miles away, hitting with such precision, what kind of technique is this?!”

Xu Hei’s expression was aghast. He reached out beyond the cauldron, as if an invisible wall blocked him from the outside, forming a spatial barrier.

Xu Hei gritted his teeth, gathering True Essence in his palm, and punched out.

”Boom!!”

The space trembled, and the external spatial barrier was instantly breached, but immediately, another layer of spatial barrier appeared, sealing Xu Hei tightly inside.

Xu Hei continued to punch, each strike with all his might, but every time he broke through a gap, the space would be sealed again.

He couldn’t get out, there was no way out!

Xu Hei tried for several breaths, but there was no sign of a breakthrough.

The Five Elemental Heavenly Capital Corpse continuously released Spiritual Power, perfectly controlling the frequency despite the suppression of the laws.

When quality is insufficient, quantity prevails.

This was Jiang Bufan’s strategy.

The laws of the mortal realm suppress everyone’s combat power to the brink of Void Shattering, but they don’t limit quantity.

Each corpse of the Five Elemental Heavenly Capital Corpse has Void Shattering combat power. When one corpse’s barrier is breached, another immediately fills the gap.

In this way, it can cycle infinitely; Xu Hei breaks one wall, another immediately appears.

To deal with Xu Hei, the Spirit Realm cultivators went to great lengths to use such a sophisticated killing move!

”Mo Xingtian, if you let me act earlier, everything would have been resolved without all this trouble,” Jiang Bufan laughed.

Mo Xingtian remained silent, but his face was somewhat grim.

His Sky-Seeking Disk had recorded Xu Hei’s aura, allowing him to track Xu Hei’s position as long as they were in the same space! To earn top merit, he acted alone, wanting to seize the Demon God Cauldron himself.

But unexpectedly, he hit a snag in tracking Xu Hei and had no choice but to ask Jiang Bufan for help.

As a result, the Seventh Ancestor would undoubtedly credit Jiang Bufan with the top merit.

Jiang Bufan clearly saw this and sneered, ”The treasure is already bound, you go and retrieve it.”

”No need for you to say, I will handle it.”

Mo Xingtian flew forward, reaching for the Demon God Cauldron a hundred thousand miles away.

At this moment, the Five Elemental Heavenly Capital Corpse continuously shot out five elemental threads, layering the space around the Demon God Cauldron, each thread forming a spatial confinement.

In an instant, Mo Xingtian arrived nearby.

Just as he was about to reach out, a scorching stream suddenly shot out from the Demon God Cauldron. Mo Xingtian instinctively dodged, but then realized the stream wasn’t aimed at him.

Instead, it was directed at the Solar Essence Fire nearby!

”Whoosh!”

The stream hit the center of the Solar Essence Fire with precision, and in an instant, the spherical blazing sun stopped rotating.

”Is this... a mature fire spirit?”

Mo Xingtian’s pupils contracted as he noticed a mature Solar Essence Fire nearby.

At this moment, the form of the Solar Essence Fire was changing, from a sun-like sphere to a humanoid shape, with an eye appearing on it, staring directly at Mo Xingtian.

The next second, the humanoid flame rushed forward, its fist transforming into a monstrous maw, aiming to bite Mo Xingtian’s head.

”Hahaha! Elder Mo, I’ll leave this demon to you. I’ll report your contribution to the Seventh Ancestor, and I’ll take the Demon God Cauldron with me!”

From afar, Jiang Bufan’s laughter echoed.

Jiang Bufan, controlling the Five Elemental Heavenly Capital Corpse, arrived in an instant, flying near the Demon God Cauldron wrapped in countless threads, reaching out to grab it.

”Boom!!!”

Suddenly, the Demon God Cauldron erupted with terrifying suction, drawing all the nearby scorching energy into the cauldron.

Under such a terrifying pull, even the five elemental threads began to show signs of breaking, stretching rapidly, followed by a snapping sound.

Within a few breaths, more than half of the five elemental threads snapped.

”What kind of technique is this?” Jiang Bufan squinted his eyes.

A fiery hand suddenly thrust out from the cauldron, crushing the shackles formed by the five seals with a single grip.

It was Xu Hei in the Earth Core Transformation state!

At this moment, Xu Hei forcibly broke out of the cauldron, his body surrounded by blazing sunlight, turning into a golden hue of burning fire. Within a hundred thousand miles, solar energy was being frantically drawn to him, causing Xu Hei to burn intensely, melting both inside and out.

His skin, organs, and bones were like melting candles, every inch of flesh dissolving.

Xu Hei was performing Earth Core Transformation inside the sun!

The sun, also a star, had energy far surpassing that of the Dark Star’s core, providing an astonishing and immediate boost.

But the cost was equally severe; the energy within the sun clearly exceeded the limits Xu Hei could endure.
