Serpent Ancestor

Chapter 764: Chasing to Dark Star

"Swish, swish, swish..."The moment Xu Hei appeared, the five stone figures of the Chi family simultaneously waved their hands, and five thick crimson chains shot out from their bodies, moving with lightning speed towards Xu Hei.

The chains were engulfed in blazing flames, causing the temperature within the earthen prison to soar, melting the ground and warping the space, as the immense power of the flame law surged forth!

"They actually have a backup plan?"

Oli was shocked, the trace of joy that had just appeared on his face vanished completely.

It turned out that this group had long discovered Xu Hei's presence and had been holding back a move.

Since when did the Chi family become so powerful?

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

The Black Needle Ants fired in unison, riddling the five stone figures with holes, but they didn't dodge at all, and the speed of the chains suddenly increased, winding towards Xu Hei.

Xu Hei had no choice but to turn the Death Meteor in his palm, slamming it onto the chains.

"Boom!!"

Three of the five chains were blasted away, but two still struck Xu Hei. Like spirit snakes, they coiled around him tightly, rendering him immobile in an instant.

"Well done, bind him for me!"

Chi Lian laughed heartily, while secretly taking out a communication talisman and sending a message to someone.

Although Xu Hei was too busy to notice this small action, Old Tree keenly observed it.

"Xu Hei, that kid has a communication talisman. I'm afraid that expert will arrive soon. You need to finish this quickly," Old Tree transmitted.

"I know."

After being bound, a thick crystalline layer appeared on Xu Hei's body, reinforced dragon scales covering him entirely. But the chains tightened further, and the flame law's power continuously seeped in, causing unbearable burning pain, even melting the Rock Crystal Guardian.

"Haha, the chains bestowed by that expert are truly extraordinary. They can even bind this alien cultivator, leaving him unable to escape. Today will be a great harvest!" Chi Lian laughed inwardly.

In fact, Xu Hei could easily break free from the chains, but he didn't.

His apparent agony and desperate struggle were all an act.

At this moment, three marks of laws appeared on Xu Hei's forehead, rapidly merging into one.

Three-phase fusion, laws infusing the body.

Xu Hei could activate his strongest form at any time and eliminate these stone figures one by one.

But he was waiting for the mastermind to show up. Otherwise, if he dealt with this group too quickly, the mastermind might escape early, causing a lot of trouble.

Initially, Xu Hei didn't know who the person behind them was. It could be an unknown entity he couldn't resist, so he remained cautious.

But now, he was almost certain of that person's identity.

Time slowly passed.

While they focused on suppressing Xu Hei, the cultivators of the Yan family gained a brief respite and began a full counterattack.

However, within the trapping formation, their counterattack had little effect, merely delaying their defeat.

Their methods were too primitive, lacking even a master to break formations.

Even though their physical cultivation reached the realm of divine power, capable of destroying the heavens and earth with a punch or kick, their bodies as tough as the hardest magical treasures, a casual strike comparable to a divine ability.

But when faced with truly advanced techniques, they were still helpless.

Watching the Yan family cultivators' struggle, Xu Hei suddenly realized a problem.

In his eyes, the stone spirit clan were like primitives.

So, in the eyes of Spirit Realm cultivators, were they, the mortal realm cultivators, also primitives?

If external cultivators casually brought out a formation or a few magical treasures, they could easily boost the Chi family's strength, effortlessly crushing the Oli and Yan families.

Then, if Spirit Realm cultivators casually provided some benefits to the mortal realm sects.

Wouldn't those sects soar to the skies, crushing other sects?

Xu Hei suddenly had a foreboding feeling.

As this thought arose, Xu Hei's unease grew stronger, as if something major was about to happen.

"They're here!"

Suddenly, Old Tree transmitted.

As Old Tree's words fell, Xu Hei suddenly sensed a scorching, violent force rushing from afar, its speed reaching the limit, faster than any stone figure Xu Hei had seen.

This scorching, violent force was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Familiar because the person was still the same, unfamiliar because this force was now incomparably stronger than before.

"Haha, your doom has come. From now on, this region will be under the Chi family's control," Chi Lian laughed heartily.

The Chi family was already a dominant force in the area, always slightly stronger than the other families, but never achieving absolute dominance.

But with the addition of that expert, not to mention dominating the stone spirit clan, even ruling the entire Dark Star seemed within reach.

"Boom!!!"

Suddenly, the void ahead exploded, bursting with dazzling light.

Immense power of laws poured into his body from his forehead, Xu Hei's bones crackled, his body swelled, and his strength surged, breaking through limits.

With the infusion of the three laws—earth, life and death, and the Dao of Heaven—Xu Hei's cultivation instantly stepped into the late-stage Divine Transformation!

Xu Hei's three-phase fusion, under the blessing of the laws of heaven, was not just a threefold increase.

Far exceeding threefold strength, even among late-stage Divine Transformation cultivators, he was exceptional.

"Ha!!"

With a loud shout, the two chains binding Xu Hei shattered instantly, devoured by the laws of heaven, and reduced to dust by the cycle of life and death.

Chi Lian's smile had just appeared when it abruptly stopped, his eyes filled with shock as he stared at Xu Hei, whose strength had suddenly exploded.

But thinking of the violent force from outside, he relaxed a bit, believing that with that person's strength, even if Xu Hei had some strange methods, he could handle it easily.

Meanwhile, the Yan family cultivators, watching Xu Hei's sudden surge in strength, all turned their gazes towards him, faces filled with delight.

At this moment, Xu Hei exhaled, every movement producing thunderous sounds.

He stared at the earthen prison barrier above the heavens, his gaze piercing through the void, looking at the crimson figure rushing from outside, his voice like thunder shaking the earth, echoing loudly.

"Flame Demon Ancestor, since you dare to chase me to Dark Star, today will be your funeral!"

"Boom!"

Xu Hei stomped his foot, the ground suddenly splitting open with a massive crack, using this terrifying recoil, Xu Hei shot into the sky like a cannonball, crashing headlong into the earthen prison above.

This prison, which even the self-destruction of Yan family cultivators couldn't break, shattered under Xu Hei's headlong impact, creating a massive chasm a thousand feet wide, leading directly to the outside.

Spiderweb-like cracks rapidly spread from the point of impact.

Everyone was stunned, their eyes wide open.

"The trapping formation was broken just like that?" Chi Lian exclaimed in shock.

And outside the massive chasm stood a figure with long crimson hair, tall and wreathed in crimson blood flames—who else could it be but the Flame Demon Ancestor?
