Serpent Ancestor

Chapter 155: Step on it to death, the Demon Lord appears

Xu Hei's eyes flickered. The token just now was meant to summon Qin Xuanji. The other party showed it to him briefly before putting it away again. What did that mean?

Looking down on him?

As for the Wild Giant Elephant Tribe, he had to save them, no matter what schemes the other side might have, whether it was a trap or not, he had to act!

Man Jin had helped him more than once or twice, even saving his life in the Myriad Serpent Valley.

The old Xu Hei might have run away.

But the Xu Hei now was no longer someone who wouldn't act without a ten percent chance of success.

Some things, you do knowing they're impossible!

The only thing he didn't expect was that Xiao Chou had also come, using an Invisibility Talisman to lurk nearby, and even he hadn't noticed.

The two of them acted almost simultaneously, without any prior communication, purely by coincidence.

"The Chu Tian Alliance gave me a protective jade pendant that only activates when I'm near death," Xiao Chou replied.

"..." Xu Hei was speechless.

Xiao Chou paused and continued, "The Mountain Movers Sect was annihilated, not a single survivor left. I found out that the Heavenly Puppet Sect orchestrated this in secret, recalling their disciples to the sect and deliberately gathering all the experts from other sects to the Wu Mountain Range, leaving no support!"

Xiao Chou's voice was calm, but anyone could hear the fire in his heart.

"So, the Heavenly Puppet Sect is an accomplice?" Xu Hei asked in surprise.

"Not an accomplice, the mastermind! They are the root of all this!" Xiao Chou said.

Xu Hei was silent for a moment and then said, "Isn't the root of the problem being too weak?"

Xiao Chou was left speechless.

Their exchange was completed in an instant.

At this moment, Tie Niu swallowed a pill, and the wounds on his face slowly healed. He took out a chain, his gaze icy, and flicked his wrist.

"Whoosh!"

The chain unfurled, rushing forward like a long snake. Xu Hei summoned the Soul-absorbing Flag, and the spirit of the Jiao Python appeared instantly, biting onto the chain.

At the same time, the Black Dragon Pagoda appeared, consuming thirty percent of his True Qi, and crashed towards Man Jin.

This was Xu Hei's plan all along, to first help Man Jin break free.

Otherwise, for someone at the early Foundation Establishment Stage to go against a Core Formation Stage, a sneak attack might work, but if the opponent reacted, he would definitely not be a match.

"Boom!!!"

The Black Dragon Pagoda collided with the Mountain-Covering Mud. The mountain above Man Jin's head, rapidly expanding, was shattered like it had been struck by a meteor, with many pieces being sucked into the Black Dragon Pagoda.

"How can this thing swallow everything?" Xu Hei was astonished.

Such a scene was like a tidal wave in Tie Xiong's eyes.

"Impossible?"

Tie Xiong's face changed dramatically. He never expected the Mountain-Covering Mud to be shattered; it was a third-grade mid-tier Spiritual Treasure.

What exactly was that black pagoda?

"Roar!!"

Man Jin roared to the sky, and after breaking the seal, the fury in his chest erupted completely. Only the death of the opponent could vent his anger.

Tie Niu grabbed the spirit of the Jiao Python, smashed it with his fist, causing its body to dent. The Jiao Python's venom sprayed out, corroding a wisp of green smoke on him, but leaving him unharmed.

A third-grade array spirit was, after all, a defective product. It was fine against the Foundation Establishment Stage, but against a true Core Formation Stage, it would be defeated in one round.

"Big brother, sorry, if we keep playing, we'll lose."

Seeing Man Jin break free, Tie Xiong immediately took out the token to summon Qin Xuanji and activated it.

However, unexpectedly, the token had no response!

"This..."

Tie Xiong was dumbfounded again.

"Human! You must die!"

Man Jin's fury reached its peak. He leaped up, and his giant elephant leg, like a pillar supporting the sky, stomped towards Tie Xiong's head with unstoppable force, shaking the heavens and the void.

Xu Hei once again activated the Black Dragon Pagoda, spinning it to completely block Tie Xiong's retreat.

Tie Xiong had just turned his head when he crashed into the Black Dragon Pagoda.

In a battle between Core Formation cultivators, life and death were decided in an instant. With just this moment of obstruction, death was imminent!

"No!!"

With a miserable scream, Man Jin's elephant hoof stomped fiercely on Tie Xiong's head.

With a "splat," his body was crushed into a pulp.

Originally, with Tie Xiong's physical body, it was impossible to be stomped to death in one blow, but Man Jin's fury was overwhelming. This stomp was the most powerful in his history, unleashing his strength to the limit!

From head to toe, he was crushed into a mass of flesh, stomped deep into the ground, breaking through the abyss.

Even Man Jin's four legs were burning fiercely, igniting golden flames.

The flames gradually spread across his body, turning him into a burning giant elephant.

Tie Niu, seeing his brother fall, didn't have time to grieve before he saw the fiery body charging at him, rapidly enlarging in his pupils.

A question floated in his mind.

"What kind of demonic beast is this?"

Tie Niu's eyes were filled with terror. This feeling was completely different from facing Man Jin before, as if it were a different demonic beast.

This time, Xu Hei's True Qi was down to twenty percent, unable to use the Black Dragon Pagoda to block.

But Man Jin's stomp still landed solidly. Although Tie Niu dodged most of it, he was hit by the aftermath, losing half of his body.

Such terrifying power was truly frightening.

Tie Niu suppressed his injuries, flashed to Tie Xiong's corpse, and with a grasp, pulled the token into his hand.

"Senior, save me! Why don't you come out?"

Tie Niu screamed miserably.

But the token remained motionless, with no response.

Man Jin roared and charged again, clearly in a desperate stance.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, the token flew out, into the sky, and was caught by a figure.

At this moment, the world fell silent.

All humans and demonic beasts stopped, countless eyes all looking towards the sky, at the figure that had appeared unnoticed.

It was an ordinary-looking youth, wearing a green robe, with slightly rough skin.

He looked just like a mortal, with no detectable presence.

But this eerie scene sent chills down everyone's spine.

This was definitely a peerless powerhouse!

Xu Hei instinctively wanted to use the Small Teleportation Talisman to escape or immediately merge with the Black Dragon Pagoda, but his instincts sensed no danger.

At this moment, the green-robed youth stared at the token in his hand and said calmly, "Will you come out yourself, or shall I find you?"

The ancient voice coming from a youth's mouth was extremely bizarre.

As the words fell.

A middle-aged phantom floated out from the token, clasped his hands, and quickly solidified.

This scene was just like when Yin Mingzi took out the token and Qin Xuanji appeared.

Xu Hei had seen similar situations before. The communication jade slip in Li Yang's storage bag worked like this, seemingly using a method to attach Divine Sense to the jade slip, turning it into a physical form.

But this Qin Xuanji was clearly more advanced, almost equivalent to an External Incarnation.

Such a method couldn't even be detected by a jade disk, making it impossible to guard against.

"Junior Qin Xuanji, greets the Demon Lord!"

Facing this youth, Qin Xuanji, the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Puppet Sect, bowed deeply, performing the courtesy of a junior.

As this scene unfolded, the entire place fell into a deathly silence, where even a pin drop could be heard.
