Serpent Ancestor

The power of the Five Elements was operating in a mysterious trajectory, counteracting and generating each other. In the blink of an eye, the Earth Elemental Heavenly Corpse that had been blasted apart had completely recovered.

This was the true brilliance of the Five Elemental Heavenly Corpses!

In the midst of battle, even if one or two, or even three or four of them were destroyed, as long as they weren’t all completely annihilated, they could be revived. In some cases, this revival could be completed in an instant, albeit at a cost.

This was their reliance to sweep across the mortal realm!

Moreover, to this day, they still had a trump card unused, which was the domain field only possessed by those in the Great Ascension Stage.

Within the domain field, they wouldn’t be suppressed by the laws of the mortal realm and would display their original cultivation and combat power. With the cultivation of the Spirit Realm, they could crush the cultivators of the mortal realm, delivering a dimensional strike, which was truly terrifying.

…………

At this moment, outside the sun, in a location unknown to anyone.

A disc-shaped pitch-black shadow was hovering in the void of the universe, completely motionless. Yet, the situation that had just occurred inside the sun was clearly projected into the shadow.

The actions, changes in expressions, and Divine Sense transmissions of the two individuals were all clearly visible.Mo Xingtian was a servant, and Jiang Bufan was a deacon. How could the higher-ups of the Jiang family not guess their little schemes?

However, as long as it didn’t affect the grand plan, the higher-ups of the Jiang family would turn a blind eye, letting them compete. The merits would be evaluated as they should, and everything was under control.

…………

Within the vast and boundless fireball, a small figure shot out, entering the void of the universe.

This shadow was none other than Xu Hei, who had escaped from the sun.

At this moment, Xu Hei’s body had melted more than half, resembling a broken candle, seemingly ready to liquefy at any moment, turning into a ”puddle” of Xu Hei.

This time, the side effects were even more severe than the last time on Dark Star, yet the result was merely the destruction of two Five Elemental Heavenly Corpses.

”The Spirit Realm cultivators came prepared, the gap between us is too vast!”

”Unless my cultivation reaches Void Shattering, or I break through the White Emperor Sutra to the sixth level, I have no chance of winning.”

As Xu Hei fled, he quickly pondered his next move.

The other party definitely had a way to find him. Although he could use the Star Compass to quickly shake off his pursuers, if his Spiritual Power couldn’t keep up, he would be caught immediately.

In terms of endurance, Xu Hei had no confidence at all.

At this moment, Xu Hei was already far from the sun, flying towards the nearest cultivation star, Flame Star.

”That’s it!”

Xu Hei’s eyes flashed as he suddenly remembered the map given to him by Huang Tiancheng, which marked a blood pool of the Blood Refining Sect outside Flame Star.

This blood pool was formed by condensing the blood of various Demonic Beasts, infused with elixirs bestowed by Spirit Realm cultivators. It was originally intended for the high-level members to use in breaking through to the Void Shattering Stage.

Although the chance was less than ten percent, it was the largest resource the Blood Refining Sect could muster.

Once Xu Hei absorbed this blood pool, even if he couldn’t break through, at least his current injuries would be healed without a problem.

”Hopefully, that old man Huang didn’t deceive me.”

Xu Hei made a decisive move, flying towards a direction on the outskirts of Flame Star.

The blood pool wasn’t on Flame Star itself but located on a meteorite in the void.

This meteorite was entirely blood-red, only a thousand miles wide, with its surface almost completely covered in fresh blood. It was usually concealed by a formation, orbiting Flame Star, so its position wasn’t fixed.

But Xu Hei had his own tracking methods.

As Xu Hei approached, he released the Star-Seeking Beast, and after a brief exploration, he received a response.

”Found it!”

Xu Hei accelerated, maneuvering the Star Compass, and soon arrived at a region where space was blurred.

He released the worm fire seed, which shot out like a sharp sword, striking the blurred space and instantly burning a large hole, revealing the blood-red meteorite inside.

Xu Hei immediately entered without hesitation, jumping into the blood-red meteorite.

”Whoosh!”

As Xu Hei’s body submerged into the blood pool, he immediately felt the surging blood energy uncontrollably drilling into his body.

Xu Hei activated the Demon God Cauldron, greedily absorbing the energy from the blood pool, while simultaneously operating the Heavenly Demon Technique to slowly reassemble his melted physical body.

”This blood pool is indeed well-hidden, not concealed within the sect but in the sky.”

In Xu Hei’s frenzied absorption, he quickly regrew his limbs and form, transforming from a puddle of liquid back into a normal shape.

The Heavenly Demon Technique truly was a miraculous cultivation technique.

However, its effects were opposite to those of the White Emperor Sutra, unable to be used simultaneously. Otherwise, he could both recover and fight, being both tough and enduring, practically invincible.

Suddenly, Xu Hei seemed to sense something and looked up.

At the crack in the formation, a figure walked in, a female cultivator of the Blood Refining Sect in a red robe, at mid-stage Divine Transformation.

This woman likely noticed the formation here had been breached and came to investigate, only to witness Xu Hei extracting from the blood pool.

”You are...”

The red-robed woman’s pupils contracted, seemingly realizing something, and like seeing a ghost, she turned and fled without hesitation.

Her legs exploded into a blood mist, acting as boosters, accelerating her out of the area at an incredible speed.

But how could Xu Hei let her go? He raised his hand and summoned.

”Whoosh!”

The fiery worm instantly caught up, and as soon as the woman was touched by a tiny bit, a piercing scream erupted, and she was engulfed in brilliant golden flames.

In the blink of an eye, the woman was burned to ashes, not even a trace remained, leaving only a storage ring, which flew into Xu Hei’s hand.

”Judging by the time, the others should be catching up soon.”

Xu Hei retracted the worm fire seed, his eyes flickering as he raised his palms and slammed them onto the ground.

”Heaven Collapse!”

With a low shout, a pillar grew from the meteorite, rising from the ground, then instantly collapsed, smashing onto the meteorite.

It was Xu Hei’s newly comprehended Three-turn Divine Ability, Heaven Collapse!

”Boom!!”

The meteorite suffered a heavy blow, instantly breaking free from its orbital motion, uncontrollably plummeting towards Flame Star, forming a perfect arc.

Its target, the heart of the Blood Refining Sect!

And during the descent, Xu Hei didn’t forget to continue devouring, draining all the remaining energy from the blood pool on the meteorite.

”Rumble...”

The meteorite entered the storm layer, igniting from friction, resembling a massive burning fireball descending from the sky. During this process, Xu Hei continuously exerted force, accelerating the meteorite, pushing its combustion to an unimaginable level.

At this moment, Mo Xingtian had just arrived, witnessing this scene.

Xu Hei stood atop the meteorite, sensing Mo Xingtian’s aura from afar, a smile curling on his lips.

”Mo Xingtian, if you have the guts, try stopping this meteorite!”
