第三千七百九十二章 祖灵之蛇与大成元婴

...

Ten thousand years of effort, reduced to nothing in an instant. It was no wonder the Treasure Snake hated Lin Xuan with a passion.

But then her tone changed: "However, it doesn't matter. Misfortune can turn into good fortune, and vice versa. Without your interference, this Sovereign Demon would not have been able to make such a decision. Now that you've done so, I won't need to waste my efforts considering what choice to make..."

"And as the instigator of this, this Sovereign Demon will certainly repay you well..."

The Treasure Snake's voice was cold and biting, each word like it came from between clenched teeth.

Hatred!

Lin Xuan felt a bit uneasy upon hearing this. According to reason, with her physical body destroyed and only an infant soul left, she had no room for maneuvering. But the words she spoke were filled with venom, and they didn't seem like mere posturing. Lin Xuan couldn't afford to take them lightly.

Seize his life when he's sick, as the saying goes. As long as he eliminated her infant soul, she would have no chance of turning things around.

With this thought in mind, Lin Xuan no longer hesitated and pointed a finger forward. Immediately, divine light surged forth, and another wave of sword rain erupted from the surface of the nine divine mountains.

Multicolored glass, since Lin Xuan was wary of her, he didn't hold back. This attack summoned primordial energy from heaven and earth, fully unleashing the power of the Immortal Sword Diagram to its fullest extent.

In an instant, it seemed as if the Treasure Snake would be engulfed by this sharp assault.

Despite being at the end of her tether, the Treasure Snake showed no fear. Her face was resolute.

Almost imperceptibly, a sigh seemed to escape from her lips.

Then a black line appeared between her brows, slowly opening up as though a third eye had emerged.

No, that wasn't an eye.

For there were no pupils or anything else, only deep darkness. A small snake suddenly slithered out of it.

This snake was barely a foot long and thinner than a chopstick, yet the pressure it emitted was astonishing. It surpassed even the most顶级的true spirit by far.

"What is this..."

Lin Xuan felt vaguely familiar with it but couldn't quite place it at first.

Though he couldn't refute it, the immense threat wasn't fake.

With both hands clenching together, a rumble filled his ears as the Illusory Yin Divine Thunder transformed into an electric snake and lunged at the enemy.

Lin Xuan continued to launch killing blows. But just then, something unexpected happened.

Boom!

A loud explosion echoed in Lin Xuan's ears as the Treasure Snake detonated her remaining body. Though only a head remained with the rest reduced to bones, the Treasure Snake, as a true demon progenitor, had spent millions of years cultivating this physical form. Even in its remnants, it contained an immense amount of primordial energy.

The airwave swept over everything, making the void seem like the moment of creation itself. The sword light hadn't even approached when it was shattered as if thrown into a furnace. The Illusory Yin Divine Thunder met the same fate.

In an instant, all his trump cards became useless. Even Lin Xuan had to retreat quickly to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

As he retreated, he pointed at his brow with a hand.

With his action, silver light flashed from both eyes as he activated the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eyes.

Through the explosion's light, Lin Xuan saw everything clearly. As she detonated her body, an infant soul about an inch long emerged.

Her features were strikingly similar to the Treasure Snake. Unlike ordinary cultivators' souls, this one was incredibly dense and indistinguishable from her physical form except for its smaller size.

Great Soul!

Lin Xuan's pupils constricted as he realized something unexpected happened at that moment. The small snake that flew out of the Treasure Snake's brow suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed the infant soul whole.

Lin Xuan was greatly surprised, almost thinking his eyes were playing tricks on him. If the Treasure Snake fell this way, it would be too absurd.

But as soon as he had this thought, he dismissed it because when she was devoured, she didn't resist, even smiling on her face.

Could it be...

Lin Xuan's mind began to piece together what might have happened. At that moment, he finally recalled the monstrous creature before him.

Ancestor Spirit Snake!

He once saw it in an ancient text. This secret technique only existed in legends and was cursed.

Across the three realms, from ancient times to now, no cultivator who practiced this secret had ever met a peaceful end. They all died horrifically, mostly due to backlash.

The Treasure Snake's胆量 was immense.

Lin Xuan was surprised. But viewed differently, whether in the cultivation world or secular society, every coin had two sides. The same applied here.

Raising an Ancestor Spirit Snake was dangerous, but the rewards were undoubtedly substantial.

Specifics eluded Lin Xuan because the ancient text was vague. However, at this moment, a warning signal rang in his mind. Even though her physical body was destroyed, Lin Xuan felt an immense threat.

Lin Xuan raised his head and saw that over a hundred feet away, the air was thick with true demon energy.

After a slight hesitation, he lifted both hands, making expansive movements. The Illusory Spirit Heavenly Fire appeared as he did so but quickly dispersed into icy blue coldness, merging with the void.

After years of cultivation, the Illusory Spirit Heavenly Fire had many attributes, but its extreme cold was the most terrifying. It had once fused with primordial Yin energy, understanding not just ordinary extreme cold laws.

Its cold attribute could make even the Treasure Snake's domain powerless.

Lin Xuan intended to test it now. As he moved, icy crystals several inches long appeared before him, shimmering blue like blades, covering an area of several acres.

"Go!"

A fierce look flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes as his fingers curled slightly and his hands closed together. Countless ice crystals, like arrows from a powerful bow, shot forward with a flash of cold light.

Instantly, the icy chill enveloped the Ancestor Spirit Snake, filled with endless killing intent.

This attack didn't use any treasure, yet it was more effective than one.

The sheer power of this move was astonishing. But what happened next left Lin Xuan almost thinking he had seen things.

The Ancestor Spirit Snake opened its mouth and spat out a demon fog. The mist was thin and unremarkable at first glance, but wherever it passed, the ice crystals melted into cold air, which the snake swallowed whole like it was feasting on food.

Lin Xuan's eyes widened in astonishment as more astonishing changes unfolded before him... RP
