Serpent Ancestor

Chapter 842: At peace with oneself

At that time, all sects had joined the alliance to attack the Divine Continent Star, even the small forces from Renwang Star and the subsidiary sects of the Yan Dao Sect had joined in.Through calculations, it was clear that if the Yan Dao Sect did not take a stand, once the Divine Continent Star was destroyed, they would be the next target!

Not participating in the war meant certain death!

Not only did Huang Tiancheng's deductions indicate this, but it also made perfect sense logically.

Therefore, for the survival of the sect, the three Ancestors decisively took action, breaking through all the formations surrounding the Divine Puppet Sect and rescuing several trapped alliance members.

Moreover, they deployed the Spirit Absorption Formation, draining the Spiritual Qi of the Divine Puppet Sect, delaying its destruction by at least ten years.

Such a significant contribution would undoubtedly secure the Yan Dao Sect's position within the alliance.

Huang Tiancheng recalculated and found that the crisis of the Yan Dao Sect's destruction had been averted.

"That's how it is."

Huang Shuer lowered her head, her face pale, trembling as she recounted everything.

It wasn't that she lacked resolve, but Xu Hei's oppressive presence was too overwhelming, causing her body to instinctively tremble with fear.

She knew that revealing this information would be extremely disadvantageous to herself, and she could have shifted all the blame elsewhere.

But such matters could only be hidden temporarily; anyone could easily find out by asking around.

It was better to be honest and show her value. A person who lies has no value.

Xu Hei listened, expressionless, and said, "Since your Yan Dao Sect is skilled in divination, why don't you calculate how you can survive now?"

Huang Shuer nodded, raised her fingertip, and touched her forehead.

"Miss, don't!"

The envoy beside her shouted anxiously.

Huang Shuer's eyes lost focus, and she fell straight to the ground, sealing all her cultivation, Divine Sense, and ability to move, rendering herself completely at the mercy of others.

In this state, even a Qi Refining Stage cultivator could easily take her life.

"Bang!!"

Xu Hei waved his hand, smashing the noisy envoy beside him into pieces.

Xu Hei couldn't leave any living witnesses to report his existence. Huang Shuer clearly realized this, which is why she sealed her Divine Sense and cultivation, turning herself into an immobile puppet.

This way, Xu Hei had no reason to kill her.

Although killing her would be safer, Xu Hei still had the possibility to act, but this was her only chance for survival.

Xu Hei said nothing, picked up Huang Shuer, and placed her into the Spirit Beast Ring.

Finally, Xu Hei looked at the last person in the corner.

—A rogue cultivator who had not moved from the beginning to the end.

This rogue cultivator had a stern appearance, with hawk-like eyes showing a hint of surprise but no panic, only a complex emotion that was hard to describe.

"It's you."

Xu Hei recognized him.

Zhao Wenzhuo, a former cultivator of the Chu Tian Alliance, the only person from the Divine Continent Star present.

After disguising himself, Zhao Wenzhuo looked completely different from before, even his aura had changed. If Xu Hei hadn't remembered his past Divine Sense aura, he wouldn't have recognized him at a glance.

"So, I've been recognized."

Zhao Wenzhuo sighed bitterly, "Your level has far surpassed mine. With you here, the crisis of the Divine Continent Star can be temporarily averted."

His expression was calm, with a sense of relief, completely different from the sycophantic demeanor he had earlier!

It was hard to imagine he could be the same person who previously flattered and fawned over the Blood Refining Sect!

"I am a sinner, no need to say more!"

Zhao Wenzhuo raised his hand, aiming a palm at his forehead, intending to end his own life swiftly like a gust of wind.

Xu Hei waved his hand, a gust of wind blew Zhao Wenzhuo away, and when he landed, he was already unconscious.

Xu Hei didn't know what he had done or what crimes he had committed, and he didn't care.

But this person was a cultivator from the Divine Continent Star, and that was enough.

Xu Hei didn't want another cultivator from the Divine Continent Star to fall under his watch.

At this moment, Xu Hei seemed to think of something, took out Wang Feiyan's storage ring, and retrieved a storage bag from it, which had Zhao Wenzhuo's Divine Sense imprint.

The contents of the storage bag were common magical treasures and pills, except for one sealed box, the contents of which were unknown.

As Xu Hei's hand touched the box.

Suddenly, the box exploded violently, and thirty Minor Annihilation Talismans within were triggered simultaneously, spreading a gray, terrifying aura that tore through space and shattered everything.

"Boom!!"

The space was torn apart, and Xu Hei waved his hand, stabilizing and closing the torn space.

"I see."

Xu Hei understood.

It turned out Zhao Wenzhuo had set a trap in the storage bag to kill Wang Feiyan.

With thirty Minor Annihilation Talismans activating at once, even Wang Feiyan would be at risk of falling if caught off guard.

Regardless of what Zhao Wenzhuo had done before, from the perspective of the planet, he was true to his identity.

…………

The Outer Battlefield was vast, divided into five major regions: Central Plains, Eastern Wasteland, Northern Desert, Southern Barbarian, and Western Mountain. Their total area far exceeded any single cultivation star.

And these were just a fragment of the shattered Northern Cold Region.

At this moment, in the core area of the Central Plains, within an ancient city.

This city, named Chaos Star City, was the one destroyed by a meteorite in the past.

However, now Chaos Star City had been rebuilt and occupied by the Blood Refining Sect, becoming their main city in the Outer Battlefield.

It was also the most powerful city in the entire Outer Battlefield, with no one daring to offend it!

"Strange! After so much time, why hasn't there been any news from the Void Realm?"

Within the City Lord's mansion of Chaos Star City, a red-haired elder stood up with a frown.

This person was the Flame Demon Ancestor, a newly cultivated Divine Transformation cultivator of the Blood Refining Sect, already at the mid-stage Divine Transformation.

By suppressing his cultivation, he forcibly entered the Outer Battlefield, hiding his presence and never taking action, serving only as a safeguard.

The Flame Demon Ancestor felt a vague sense of unease, an intuition of a Divine Transformation cultivator.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Suddenly, three figures flew in from afar, shouting anxiously before they even got close, "Flame Demon Ancestor, there's no news from the Void Realm, and everyone sent to investigate has disappeared without a trace, yet their soul flames show no reaction!"

Upon hearing this, the Flame Demon Ancestor's face darkened, just as he was about to issue orders.

Suddenly, a dim yellow light shield rose in the sky, forming an inverted bowl that descended from above, encompassing the entire Chaos Star City.

It was the magical treasure, the Forbidden Sky Bowl, obtained from the Flame Demon Ancestor.

But that wasn't all. Xu Hei changed his hand gesture, pressing his palms onto the ground, causing layers of earth walls to rise from all directions, towering high and connecting at a point in the heavens, completely covering the sky and earth.

It was the earth-based Divine Ability, the Sky Prison Formation!

Double confinement, double sealing, directly locking down Chaos Star City.

Xu Hei's eyes were cold as he looked ahead.

"Today, Xu is here to close the door and beat the dog!"
