Serpent Ancestor

Wang Zhen furrowed his brows.

Using alien cultivators to deal with a deity, Yuantai truly had immense courage.

Among the Sea Star Demon Clan, believers of the Earth God were almost nonexistent, offering no help whatsoever. Yet, due to the deity’s position, they dared not act against Him.

Once the Earth God was extinguished, the lands on the Northern Continent would have no reason to exist and could be completely submerged, turning into an ocean.

This would, in turn, enhance the Water God’s position.

Such a blasphemous plan was unthinkable in the past, but Yuantai dared to put it into action, truly audacious.

”Rebellious! You are truly rebellious!” Wang Zhen remarked.

”Oh? What have I done?” Yuantai feigned confusion.

”In a few days, that kid will surely be gravely injured. I don’t care about anything else; I am only responsible for destroying him,” Wang Zhen said.

”Don’t worry, you don’t need to concern yourself with anything else,” Yuantai sneered, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes.The times have changed.

Ever since he witnessed the success of the Second-turn Divine Ability, he firmly believed that so-called deities were merely a kind of law.

It’s fine to deceive others, but don’t deceive yourself. If you continue to blindly worship those so-called gods, the Sea Star will eventually meet its end.

…………

A day later.

In the silent underground, the massive head of the Black Dragon emerged from the Demon God Cauldron once again, roaring, ”Come on, I’ve resurrected!”

”Boom...”

As he expected, the underground rocks pressed in once more, like Mount Tai collapsing, like a meteor impact.

Xu Hei’s provocation was purely to temper his physical body. The gravitational environment here was perfect for earth-based body refinement cultivators.

At the same time, the Earth Law was also what he needed.

Two sticks of incense later, Xu Hei was gravely injured and retreated back into the Demon God Cauldron.

After a day, he healed his wounds and emerged once more, repeating the cycle, each time returning with serious injuries, yet absorbing a large amount of the power of laws.

Initially, Xu Hei could only last for one stick of incense outside, but over time, the duration gradually increased, and his physical body rapidly strengthened.

A week later.

Xu Hei could already endure for half a day.

At this moment, Xu Hei was enveloped in a thick, earthy yellow aura, the powerful Earth Law. A new mark of laws was faintly visible on his forehead.

Compared to when he first arrived, Xu Hei’s physical body had strengthened by more than double.

Xu Hei knew that his foundation was still too shallow, and the gap between him and those veteran Divine Transformation cultivators was too large. He needed to continuously improve, seeking every possible way to become stronger to survive.

However, he had one doubt.

The Earth God should have noticed his changes over the past few days, so why hadn’t He taken any countermeasures?

Was He just watching Xu Hei grow stronger day by day?

Xu Hei kept pondering this question.

Thus, after three more days, Xu Hei’s physical body had fully adapted to the pressure here and could continue to advance.

Xu Hei moved like an earthworm, swiftly traversing the rock layers, and soon reached the deepest part.

He saw the legendary deity of the Earth God.

It was a deep brown rock, like a small hill, angular, with patterns on its back. Upon closer inspection, it resembled a headless, limbless turtle.

”Death God is an Ouroboros, Earth God is a turtle?”

Xu Hei gazed at the massive rock ahead, lost in thought.

This turtle had no limbs, like an empty shell, round in shape, about a hundred feet wide. Was this the deity of the Earth God?

Xu Hei approached, scratching it with his claw, but there was no reaction.

He could forcibly destroy the deity as he did with the Death God, but doing so would only allow him to absorb some Earth Law, offering no value to his own comprehension and potentially causing unforeseen disasters.

Xu Hei hesitated.

At this moment, Xu Hei suddenly recalled the information Yu Shiyu had previously told him.

Offering a sacrifice to the Earth God could earn divine feedback!

This was something the Earth God’s followers did. The body refinement cultivators outside gained their divine abilities this way. Would Xu Hei really do this?

Xu Hei pondered briefly and made a decision. He raised his hand, summoning a skeleton.

This skeleton was half-human, half-fish, with its flesh gone, leaving only a frame, still exuding a powerful spiritual power fluctuation.

It was Gong Tianlei’s corpse.

A Divine Transformation Stage corpse was invaluable. Xu Hei had planned to take it back to refine a puppet or something.

But now, he gritted his teeth, throwing the corpse towards the Earth God’s deity.

”Earth God, this is a sacrifice for you,” Xu Hei said.

”Whoosh!”

As the corpse approached the turtle shell, it was immediately absorbed and vanished.

”It really got absorbed?” Xu Hei exclaimed.

”Buzz!”

In an instant, a dim yellow light shone from the Earth God’s deity, illuminating Xu Hei’s forehead.

At this moment, Xu Hei suddenly felt his consciousness sinking, descending into the earth.

In the blink of an eye, he found himself in a vast world, with a dim yellow sky and earth-brown ground, countless stars in the sky, stars shifting and moving.

This was the world of the earth.

”What is earth?”

An ancient, distant voice echoed in Xu Hei’s mind.

Xu Hei immediately looked up, seeing the stars above, then the yellow earth beneath his feet.

”What is earth?”

Xu Hei pondered briefly, then replied, ”Beneath my feet, that is the earth.”

The ancient voice came again, ”The earth is everywhere, it can be beneath your feet, it can be above your head!”

With these words, Xu Hei suddenly realized the sky above had disappeared, replaced by a dim yellow earth.

A massive star was close to him, hanging high above, the scene was extremely magnificent.

A terrifying attraction came from the star above, causing Xu Hei to involuntarily rise into the air, crashing heavily upwards.

In the real world, Xu Hei would have burned his primordial spirit without hesitation to resist, but at this moment, he was in free fall, crashing into the star above.

”I come from the Earth Star, have visited eighteen different planets, comprehended the way of the earth, and finally ascended from the Sea Star. Before ascending, I created a total of thirty-six First-turn Divine Abilities.”

”Now, I demonstrate them all to you!”

”How much you can comprehend depends on your fortune!”

Hearing this number, Xu Hei was dumbfounded.

Creating thirty-six First-turn Divine Abilities, what kind of terrifying existence was this? Xu Hei had only created one divine ability himself.

Are ascended cultivators all this formidable?

”This is the first move, Star Sinks Earth Moves!”

As the ancient voice sounded, Xu Hei felt the entire star tremble. The earth beneath his feet sank, and Xu Hei followed, sinking into the earth, reaching the planet’s core.

One move, directly sinking Xu Hei into the core.

The First-turn Divine Ability was terrifying beyond measure.

”And now, the second move, Core Transformation!”

The voice appeared again.
