"Congratulations to Yao Ming Clan Leader on his return to the throne! We will follow him to the death!"
After Yao Ming dealt with Yao Xiaotian, a group of senior elders quickly stepped forward and respectfully addressed Yao Ming.
"Thank you for your trouble, elders. You will handle the affairs of the clan. Those who should not be kept alive should no longer be kept..."
Yao Ming said calmly.
If he wants to regain power, he will inevitably need to purge some of Yao Xiaotian's confidants; otherwise, it will become a problem sooner or later.
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, the elders hurriedly responded respectfully. Yao Ming already had a formidable reputation among the Nine Netherworld Underworld Python Clan. Although he had been missing for hundreds of years, his ferocity in directly killing Yao Tianxiao was enough to intimidate all his clansmen.
The Nine Netherworld Python Clan suffered a major upheaval, and naturally, some bloodshed occurred overnight. However, Huo Xuan ignored these incidents, as the Yellow Spring Stone Tablet was the most important thing for him on this trip!
The chaos of the night gradually subsided by dawn. The next day, Yao Ming appeared early in front of Huo Xuan's room, summoned him, and then headed straight for a mountain behind the mountain.
Along the way, Huo Xuan did not stop for long. In just over ten minutes, he followed Yao Ming to an ancient altar.
This altar is extremely magnificent, constructed entirely of blue-green boulders. Standing atop the altar, one can overlook several surrounding mountain peaks.
In the center of the altar, a massive pale yellow stone tablet, about a hundred feet tall, stood forlornly, exuding an ancient aura as if it had existed forever.
"My lord, that is the Yellow Spring Stone Tablet!"
Huo Xuan looked up at the huge stone tablet, on which many strange runes were engraved, and strange light flickered faintly. On the stone tablet, a huge finger and a palm print half a foot deep were carved, and some strange information spread out from it.
Yao Ming first bowed solemnly before the stone tablet, and then slowly retreated.
"My lord, three Dou Techniques are carved on the Yellow Spring Stone Tablet: the Yellow Spring Finger and the Yellow Spring Palm. The former is Heaven Rank Low Grade Dou Technique, while the latter is a mid-level Heaven-rank technique. Both are extremely powerful, and only our clan leader and a few elders can learn them."
"Of the three Dou Techniques, the last one should be the Yellow Spring Sky Wrath!"
"My lord, you are right."
The Yellow Spring Finger, severing life and death!
The wrath of the underworld shatters human souls!
The famous technique of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint back then was the Yellow Spring Sky Wrath!
Yellow Spring Sky Wrath, a high-level Heavenly Rank sonic Dou Technique!
Ancient texts record that in ancient times, even some powerful warriors at the Dou Sheng level would turn pale at the mere mention of Yellow Spring Sky Wrath. Of the peak warriors who perished at the Yellow Spring Demon Saint, at least nine out of ten were killed by Yellow Spring Sky Wrath.
High-level Heavenly Rank Dou Technique!
This level of Dou Technique was extremely rare even in ancient times, let alone now. Even the Flame Clan has never possessed one. In fact, Huo Xuan has never seen anyone in the clan use or bring out a high-level Heaven-rank Dou Technique in recent years.
"Unfortunately, the Yellow Spring Sky Wrath is hidden deep within the stone tablet, and we cannot obtain the cultivation method at all. Moreover, for fear of damaging the Demon Saint Essence Blood within, no one has dared to forcibly break it open. Over the years, no one in our clan has been able to cultivate the Yellow Spring Sky Wrath..."
Yao Ming said with considerable regret.
"Back then, I once tried to obtain the cultivation method of 'Yellow Spring Sky Wrath' and the Demon Saint Essence Blood from within the stone tablet. However, the moment my Soul Power invaded the stone tablet, I was so shocked that I vomited blood and collapsed. It took me half a year to recover."
Huo Xuan stared intently at the stone tablet, sensing an extremely powerful soul pressure emanating from it.
"Don't let anyone bother me during this time..."
Huo Xuan said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
After Yao Ming left, Huo Xuan sat cross-legged, and a somewhat illusory figure emerged from between his eyebrows, finally hovering in front of the stone tablet.
Huo Xuan's soul floated in front of the Yellow Spring Stone Tablet. After a moment, he took a step forward, and his somewhat illusory body crashed directly into the stele.
"Laugh!"
The moment the two touched, the surface of the ancient stone tablet rippled like liquid, and Huo Xuan's soul body disappeared mysteriously in front of the stone tablet as if it had been swallowed up.
"Boom!"
Above the ancient sky, thunder roared like an angry dragon, the deafening roar causing the entire world to tremble violently.
"Is this the hidden space within the stone tablet...?"
Huo Xuan's body hovered in mid-air, gazing at this strange space with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Then, he looked into the distance, towards the end of this space.
Huo Xuan stepped through the void, slowly heading towards the depths of space.
"Boom!"
As the Huo Xuan blazed deeper, suddenly, a deep yellow cloud appeared in the sky. Then, an extremely powerful gust of wind tore through the heavens and earth, pressing down fiercely upon it.
"The Yellow Spring Finger..."
Huo Xuan paused slightly, raised his head, and looked at the giant finger that tore through the sky and emerged from the clouds. His eyes flickered slightly, and with a gentle wave of his sleeve, a vast amount of Soul Power surged out and transformed into a giant finger, which finally clashed heavily with the Yellow Spring Finger.
"Bang!"
When the two collided, the space rippled slightly, but there was no energy explosion. Both of them shattered and annihilated the instant they made contact.
"Boom!"
The Yellow Spring Finger had just vanished when, immediately afterward, a gigantic yellow hand shot out like lightning, appearing before Huo Xuan in the blink of an eye.
"Boom!"
Huo Xuan waved his hand again, and just like with the previous Yellow Spring Finger, a powerful Soul Storm swept out, directly shattering the Yellow Spring Palm.
"Boom!"
With a deafening roar, a mountain peak suddenly burst open from the ground not far ahead, rising abruptly and standing tall.
At the summit of that mountain, there was a huge throne, and on the throne, a figure dressed in a yellow fur robe sat upright, and an aura that made heaven and earth tremble slowly spread out.
The Yellow Spring Demon Saint!
"Young man, this is not a place for you. Leave!"
The soft voice, containing a kind of pressure from the soul, slowly entered Huo Xuan's ears, and ripples spread across his body under its influence.
Huo Xuan stared intently at the Yellow Spring Demon Saint on the throne. After a moment, he suddenly smiled slightly and said, "Let me retreat. No problem. As long as Senior Yellow Spring gives me his essence blood and Yellow Spring Sky Wrath, I will retreat immediately."
"How dare you, a lowly scoundrel, be so insolent before me!"
Upon hearing this, the Yellow Spring Demon Saint on the throne suddenly opened his eyes, and an extremely powerful soul wave shot out like lightning, striking Huo Xuan fiercely like a sword blade.
Seeing this, Huo Xuan did not dodge. With a wave of his sleeve, an equally vast soul wave rippled out, completely blocking the soul attack of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint.
In terms of Soul Power, Huo Xuan didn't think he would lose to the remnant soul of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint.
"Senior Huang Quan, the cultivation methods for those Dou Techniques and the Demon Saint Essence Blood that you left behind will sooner or later be ours to keep. Why are you being so stingy?"
"If you want the Yellow Spring Sky Wrath and its essence blood, defeat me first!"
The Yellow Spring Demon Saint suddenly stood up, and the moment he did, the world around the mountain collapsed!
"If you were truly the Yellow Spring Demon Saint, I wouldn't dare to fight you. But right now, you're merely a remnant of his soul!"
"What is there to fear from a mere remnant soul!"
