Yellow Springs Blood Crystal: Yao Xiaotian

"Found it!"

Upon hearing this faint sound, a smile flashed in Xiao Ming's eyes. He activated his soul perception and carefully searched for the direction from which the sound had come.

However, when Xiao Ming became serious, the voice mysteriously disappeared, as if it had never appeared at all.

Why are you hiding again?

Xiao Ming raised an eyebrow slightly, his gaze gradually shifting downwards. If someone could really hide here, it would only be under the mud. Without further hesitation, he suddenly grabbed downwards with his palm.

"Splash!"

Xiao Ming grabbed down with his palm, and a palm print was immediately left on the sandy ground. As the sand and stones rolled, a massive iron chain, a hundred feet long, was completely exposed to Xiao Ming's sight.

Upon seeing the enormous iron chain, Xiao Ming's lips curled up slightly. He grabbed at it from a distance, and the chain was slowly pulled out. As the chain was pulled out, the ground around it suddenly began to shake.

Then, three more enormous iron chains rose from the mud. These chains were connected to the surrounding massive mountains, and they couldn't be moved at all when pulled.

Xiao Ming's gaze did not concern himself with where the chains were locked; his eyes were fixed on the center of the four chains, where there was a large clump of dark mud.

Looking at the clump of mud, Xiao Ming smiled and casually waved his hand, scattering the mud away. As the mud dispersed, what was inside was revealed—a person!

A person whose entire body is withered and looks like a skeleton!

"Although extremely weak, one can still see the power of his prime. He truly deserves to be the most talented person in the Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe. It was worth the trip I made!"

Looking at the skeletal figure, a hint of joy flashed in Xiao Ming's eyes. He chuckled and said...

"Save me, save me, save me! I'll make the entire Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe serve you as their master!"

As Xiao Ming stared at the withered figure, the latter's sunken eyes suddenly snapped open, his gaze turning somewhat crazed as he stared at the former. A hoarse roar echoed through the depths of the Yellow Springs, like a ghostly wail, chilling to the bone.

Xiao Ming smiled, completely ignoring Yao Ming's roar, and simply waited for him to calm down.

"Huff huff..."

After a long while, the skeletal figure finally quieted down. The struggle seemed to have exhausted him, and his breathing became somewhat rapid.

Xiao Ming could feel that extremely cold energy was constantly emanating from the four huge chains, consuming his fighting Dou Qi and keeping him in a state of extreme weakness, but without harming his life. He could only eke out a living in this perpetual state of consumption.

Xiao Ming shook his head at these methods. Yao Xiaotian was such a good younger brother, yet he was so cruel to his older brother.

Looking at the now quiet Yao Ming, Xiao Ming said, "Why don't you introduce yourself first?"

"..."

"I am Yao Ming, the Clan Leader of the Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe."

Faced with Xiao Ming's words, the skeletal figure gasped for breath for a moment before finally speaking. His voice was extremely hoarse, like sand scraping against glass, extremely grating.

"A self-introduction that simple? As far as I know, the current Clan Leader of the Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe is Yao Xiaotian," Xiao Ming said softly.

"That bastard, that son of a bitch, it was he who used his wicked schemes to steal my position and sealed me at the bottom of this Nine Serene Yellow Springs! Ah! That beast, he made me suffer for hundreds of years from the torment of his body by the power of yin and cold. If I am lucky enough to see the light of day again, I, Yao Ming, will make him wish he were dead!"

Upon hearing the name Yao Xiaotian, Yao Ming's eyes instantly turned blood red, and boundless resentment surged from them. His mad roar echoed endlessly in the depths of the Yellow Springs.

"So, you want me to rescue you?"

"Yes, I have the Nine Serene Nether Staff. It is the token of the Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe Clan Leader. Only those who possess the Staff can be the true Clan Leader. As long as I can escape and defeat Yao Tianxiao, I will be the new Clan Leader, and the other elders will have to obey my orders! At that time, I will make the entire Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe submit to you as their master," Yao Ming hurriedly said.

"Really? I don't believe it." At this moment, Xiao Ming was possessed by the spirit of a famous TV host from his previous life.

"No, you have to believe me! Although I, Yao Ming, am not exactly a benevolent person, my word is my bond... Really, as long as you rescue me, I will obey your orders, and I will do my utmost to fulfill any request you make!"

The Yao Ming was initially stunned, then spoke urgently.

"Don't say things like that. I don't trust you. But it's not impossible for me to save you. I can even help you regain your position Clan Leader after I rescue you."

But you must voluntarily release your soul so I can place a Soul Seal on it. If you lie to me, I will detonate the Soul Seal, and even if you are Dou Sheng Expert, you will be severely injured, and your strength will never be able to improve again."

Xiao Ming said this because he wasn't too concerned about whether Yao Ming would betray him after he rescued him. After all, Yao Ming was only a second-level Two Star Dou Sheng, and it wouldn't take Xiao Ming much effort to deal with him.

But next he has to obtain the inheritance of the Yellow Springs Demon Saint. What if Yao Ming and takes the opportunity to cause trouble? Wouldn't that be terrible for him?

Therefore, it's always good to have some tricks up your sleeve.

Upon hearing Xiao Ming's words, Yao Ming opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. He truly couldn't get Xiao Ming to completely trust him on their first meeting.

Although he didn't want to be controlled by others, the thought of the suffering he had endured for centuries caused his resentment to surge. He gritted his teeth and growled:

"Fine, I'll do as you say. I can no longer contain my resentment and want to tear that bastard to pieces!"

Xiao Ming was not surprised to see that the Yao Ming had agreed.

Yao Ming took a deep breath, a light flashing between his brows, and an invisible Soul Power surged forth, finally condensing into a giant black serpent in front of him.

Seeing that Yao Ming had taken the initiative to summon his soul, Xiao Ming smiled. With a thought, a wisp of soul, glowing with intense heat, drifted out and quickly invaded the forehead of the black giant snake. As the Soul Imprint entered the giant snake's forehead, the latter's body trembled violently, and then the snake form dissipated and burrowed into the space between Yao Ming's eyebrows.

When those souls were absorbed into Yao Ming's brow, Xiao Ming was able to sense the latter's Soul Fluctuation. Now, with just a thought, the Soul Imprint containing the power of the Heavenly Flames would explode instantly, shattering the latter's soul into pieces.

"By the way, bring me a portion of the Yellow Springs Blood Crystal from the Nine Serene Yellow Springs."

Yellow Springs Blood Crystal is the main material for refining Ninth Grade Treasure Pill. Even in the Nine Serene Yellow Springs, it is very rare. Generally speaking, it takes nearly a thousand years to condense a piece the size of a palm.

The Yellow Springs Blood Crystal here were mostly devoured by the Yao Ming, which is why Xiao Ming made this statement.

Upon hearing this, Yao Ming hesitated for a moment, then suddenly opened his mouth, and a blood-red light shot out, finally hovering in front of Xiao Ming. It was a blood-red crystal about the size of a fist, and within the crystal, it seemed as if endless blood was flowing, making it look extremely eerie.

Xiao Ming reached out and took the blood-red crystal floating in front of him. As soon as the crystal touched his hand, a terrifyingly cold power emanated from his palm, instantly freezing one of Xiao Ming's arms.

"As expected of the Yellow Springs Blood Crystal, its chilling power is truly terrifying..."

Seeing this, Xiao Ming nodded with some delight. With a flick of his arm, he shattered the ice crystals and then stored the blood crystal in his Na Ring.

"Well done. Now it's time to release you. Oh, right, you haven't introduced yourself yet. I am Xiao Ming, the Heavenly Court Alliance Leader. You can call me the Alliance Leader from now on."

"Yes, Alliance Leader!"

Although she was very curious about this so-called Heavenly Court, with her escape imminent, Yao Ming had no time to ask too many questions; she simply looked at Xiao Ming with eager eyes.

Xiao Ming understood what he meant. His gaze followed a chain that was fixed to the surrounding cliffs and extended into a dark mountain.

The mountain wasn't large, only a few dozen feet in size, but the chilling power it contained made even Xiao Ming, protected by a Heavenly Flames, shiver involuntarily.

"Is this the source of the Yin Cold Qi?"

Xiao Ming moved swiftly, arriving in front of the mountain in an instant. Gazing at the dark mountain, Xiao Ming clenched his fist, unleashing a surge of powerful Dou Qi, which he then slammed into the mountain.

"Bang!"

A huge wave of water spread out from where Xiao Ming's fist landed, but the dark mountain only trembled slightly. Xiao Ming's punch, which was powerful enough to kill Advanced Ban Sheng, did not even leave a fist imprint on it.

"Tsk tsk, this Yellow Springs Yin Stone is quite a treasure."

Xiao Ming chuckled lightly, then stopped wasting his time. He bent two fingers together, and a wisp of extremely compressed Heavenly Flames extended out, like a sword blade.

With Xiao Ming's movements, it easily pierced into the mountainside at the end of the iron chain, and soon it seemed to have touched an exceptionally hard, round object.

At that moment, Xiao Ming exerted a sudden force with his fingers, and the blade pierced fiercely into the hard sphere.

"Snap!"

As the sword pierced the circular object, a strange wave emanated from the mountain, and immediately the massive iron chain snapped in two.

Xiao Ming followed the same method, destroying the dark mountain at the ends of the remaining three chains.

Within the Nether Snake Earth Meridian, in a magnificent palace.

In the lavishly decorated bedroom, a naked man lay on the bed. Although he was quite handsome, there was an undisguised chill between his brows. His eyes, which were slightly open and closed, flashed with a sharp light, like a venomous snake that could kill in an instant, making people's hearts tremble.

Beside the man, two naked women cautiously...

He gently kneaded their bodies, while his large hands roamed over the two women's soft, delicate bodies, making their eyes glaze over and giving them an exceptionally alluring appearance.

At the same time, four or five beautiful snake women lay on the bed, their jade-like bodies sprawled out, their allure captivating.

"Clan Leader, I wish to serve you~"

A sweet, delicate voice rang out, and a beautiful snake woman had already taken the initiative to embrace Yao Xiaotian, her snake tail already wrapped around his waist.

"Um?"

Just as he was starting to consider it, the man suddenly trembled, a look of shock flashing in his eyes. "The seal has broken?"

"Clan Leader ~"

"Roll!"

Sensing that Yao Ming might break the seal, Yao Xiaotian had no interest in procreation. He lifted the snake tail covered in purple scales from his waist and casually tossed the beautiful snake woman aside.

Instantly, chaos erupted as the snake women huddled together, trembling, staring in terror at the gloomy-faced Yao Xiaotian, too frightened to utter a sound.

A vast expanse of white, a truly beautiful sight, but Yao Xiaotian had no heart to appreciate it. If his brother Yao Ming were to break free of the seal and escape and recover, he would probably tear Yao Xiaotian apart.

"Hmph! My dear brother, since you insist on courting death, then I have no choice but to grant your wish!"

After dressing, Yao Xiaotian gave a sinister smile, and with a swift movement, disappeared from the palace.

"Hahaha, I never thought I, Yao Ming, would actually make it to this day."

"Alliance Leader! Yao Ming will never forget this life-saving grace. If you allow me to take revenge, you will be the master of the Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe!"

Although the Yao Ming was extremely weak, he was clearly very excited. He turned his gaze to Xiao Ming and laughed loudly.

"Alright, you've just escaped, and your Dou Qi is almost completely depleted. Right now, any Dou Zong expert could easily kill you."

Xiao Ming glanced at Yao Ming in front of him, flicked his finger, and a bottle of pills flew towards the latter, saying, "Take these pills to recover some of your Dou Qi. Your brother might come looking for you soon."

"Yes, the Alliance Leader is absolutely right!"

Upon hearing the name Yao Xiaotian, Yao Ming's excitement subsided considerably, but he didn't show much worry either.

After all, although Xiao Ming hadn't said it, he could sense that Xiao Ming's strength was no weaker than his own at his peak. He was definitely a genuine Two Star Dou Sheng, and Yao Xiaotian would only be throwing his life away if he came.

Of course, he still preferred that Yao Xiaotian die by his own hand.

"Walk!"

Seeing that Yao Ming had swallowed the entire bottle of pills, Xiao Ming waved his sleeve, transforming him into two water arrows that shot upwards like lightning.

On the way back, they encountered countless strange Strange Serpent again, but the Yao Ming seemed to have a way to control them.

After emitting some strange cries, the Strange Serpent kept their distance, thus saving Xiao Ming the trouble of fighting Strange Serpent.

Without any obstacles, Xiao Ming and his companion's speed increased dramatically, and in less than ten minutes, they saw some lights in the distance.

"We're going out!"

As they drew closer to the lake, Xiao Ming smiled, then with a sudden movement, he grabbed Yao Ming, broke through the water, and landed on the lake.

"Bang!"

Just as Xiao Ming steadied himself, a deep, muffled sound suddenly came from mid-air, followed by an attack aimed directly at his handsome face.

"Snort!"

Xiao Ming snorted coldly, not even glancing at it, and threw a punch directly. A violent explosion rang out, and the water surface surged with huge waves.

In the sky, the Yao Ming stared with extremely sinister eyes at Xiao Ming, who had blocked its attack, and the skeletal Yao Ming beside him.

However, after sensing Xiao Ming's Aura, his expression turned ugly. After struggling for a moment, he said...

"Friend, the man beside you is a serious criminal of my Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe. Please hand him over, and my Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe will treat you as Distinguished Guest. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
