Transforming into his true form, Yao Xiaotian roared to the sky. As he roared, terrifying cold power suddenly surged from the Nine Nether Yellow Springs below. Under Yao Xiaotian's control, this cold power, combined with his own overwhelming Dou Qi, instantly formed a black giant seal resembling a huge mountain. Countless strange runes covered the giant seal.

"Brother Xiao, this is one of the Nine Netherworld Python Tribe's clan-protecting Dou Technique. It is Heaven Rank Middle Level Dou Technique. If it is suppressed, it will directly seal you in the Nine Nether Yellow Springs. I was ambushed by this move back then, which is why I have suffered for hundreds of years! Can you lend me a hand? Afterwards, you can choose Heaven Rank Battle Skill of my Nine Netherworld Python Clan. You can even take them all with you without any objection!"

As this giant seal appeared, Xiao Yuan also heard Yao Ming's plea for help.

Clearly, after suffering a loss once, this Yao Ming has finally learned to be more cautious.

"Oh? That's great! This sealing Dou Technique is very interesting; I'd like to study it."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan's eyes lit up. His soul power had already sensed that a powerful member of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan was approaching from afar.

Although Yao Ming is quite strong, if he were to face the combined attack of two One Star Dou Sheng, he would probably find it difficult to win in the short term.

Xiao Yuan didn't intend to waste too much time on this kind of thing.

Upon hearing this, Yao Ming immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Yuan's strength is self-evident!

He forcefully melted the chains, which were at least broken by Five Star Dou Sheng, thanks to the icy power of the Yellow Springs Yin Stone. This strength was enough to help him resolve the crisis before him! The next moment, Xiao Yuan appeared in front of Yao Ming and then gently pressed out with one hand.

"You brat, you're asking for death! You'll fall before this king!"

Seeing Xiao Yuan so arrogant under the giant seal, Yao Xiaotian also sneered. With a flick of his huge snake tail, the black giant seal suddenly turned and aimed at Xiao Yuan. An indescribably cold power caused the space around the latter to become viscous instantly.

"Suppress!"

As the shout fell, the giant black seal trembled, actually piercing through space and appearing above Xiao Yuan's head in a flash. Finally, it crashed down, slamming Xiao Yuan into the Nine Nether Yellow Springs!

"Boom!"

The giant black seal landed on the lake surface, and countless huge water columns shot out, spreading out a terrifying energy ripple that instantly leveled anything within the deep ravine.

"Ha ha!"

Upon seeing this, the giant snake that Yao Xiaotian had transformed into burst into laughter. With the help of the chilling power of the Nine Nether Yellow Springs, even Mid-Stage One-Star Dou Saint would have their Dou Qi sealed instantly if struck by this attack. Now, he could concentrate on dealing with Yao Ming! "You're celebrating too soon!"

The Yao Ming, still standing in the same spot, let out a cold laugh.

Just now, the instant the giant seal crashed down, Yao Ming sensed that the space around him distorted, directly protecting him in a spatial interlayer and preventing him from being affected.

To have the spare capacity to protect himself while dealing with the Yellow Springs Grand Seal, Brother Xiao is indeed a master!

"Bang!"

However, just as Yao Xiaotian's loud laughter subsided, the giant black seal that was suppressing the Nine Nether Yellow Springs suddenly trembled violently. Then, in the next instant, a loud noise rang out, and the giant seal was directly blasted backward!

"What?"

Upon seeing this, Yao Xiaotian was immediately startled.

"I understand now, the Yellow Springs Grand Seal, right? Come on, take my Primordial Primal Chaos Suppressing Qi Seal!"

"Bang!"

As the thunderous roar and cold laughter echoed, the Nine Nether Yellow Springs suddenly exploded. A white-clad figure, as fast as lightning, burst forth and appeared above Yao Xiaotian's head in a flash. On his fair, jade-like hand, a chaotic light seal slammed down and struck Yao Xiaotian's enormous snake head.

"Boom!"

The light imprint wasn't large, but the moment it touched Yao Tianxiao's forehead, it exploded instantly. The next moment, Yao Xiaotian's aura began to plummet, and his body descended rapidly, smashing a huge crater on the shore of the Yellow Springs, with yellow dust spreading around him.

"You bastard! How dare you cause trouble in my Nine Netherworld Python Tribe! Nether Serpent Guard, capture this man for me!"

At this moment, a roar suddenly came from the sky. Immediately afterwards, countless sounds of wind breaking came from the entire mountain range, and powerful auras also burst out. Clearly, the battle between Yao Ming and Yao Xiaotian had alarmed the entire Nine Netherworld Python Tribe.

Hearing the roar from the sky, Xiao Yuan moved swiftly and arrived beside Yao Ming. He then turned his gaze to the sky, where he saw numerous powerful members of the Nine Netherworld Python Tribe. These individuals were all staring at him with furious eyes. Regardless of anything else, the Nine Netherworld Python Tribe was one of the three major clans in the Beast Realm. Not only had they been secretly infiltrated, but their clan leader had also been brutally beaten. No one could tolerate this.

"Boy, who exactly are you? How dare you run wild in my Nine Netherworld Python Tribe!"

In the sky, an old man with a bright red venomous snake coiled on his shoulder stared fiercely at Xiao Yuan and shouted coldly.

As he coldly shouted, his gaze also fell upon the giant black serpent below. His heart skipped a beat; he hadn't expected that someone as powerful as Yao Xiaotian would be sealed away by this unknown individual! "No matter who he is, we must keep him here today, or else if word gets out, how will my Nine Netherworld Python Tribe maintain its standing in the Beast Realm!"

Beside the old man, an old man with gray hair shouted angrily.

"Nether Serpent Guard, listen to my command! Capture this man!"

The gray-haired old man roared angrily.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing the old man's angry shout, numerous unified shouts suddenly resounded throughout the land. Immediately afterward, the sound of wind breaking abruptly rang out, and figures clad in snake-shaped armor emerged from various mountain peaks. In the last few flashes, they appeared around Xiao Yuan, their numerous auras locking onto him tightly.

"The Nine Netherworld Python Tribe is indeed powerful. Each of these Nether Serpent Guard possesses an extremely strong aura, and their movements are almost perfectly coordinated."

Xiao Yuan's gaze swept over the nearly one hundred Nether Serpent Guard around him, and a hint of surprise flashed through his mind. Even the Starfall Pavilion did not have such an elite team.

"You lot are quite arrogant, aren't you? Treating our honored guests from the Nine Netherworld Python Clan like this, it seems no one takes me seriously!"

Beside Xiao Yuan, Yao Ming also let out a cold laugh upon seeing this.

Staring at Yao Ming's face, which bore a striking resemblance to Yao Xiaotian's, all the members of the Nine Netherworld Python Tribe present were stunned. After a long moment of confusion, some elders finally cried out in disbelief:

"Yao Ming? How is that possible? Didn't you perish from a cultivation mishap?"

"Clan Chief Yao Ming?"

"It seems to be the biological elder brother of Clan Chief Tianxiao, the previous clan chief. However, Clan Chief Tianxiao said that he died from a qi deviation during cultivation and had disappeared for hundreds of years. How could he reappear now?"

Hearing the numerous whispers that echoed through the sky, Yao Xiaotian had already transformed back into human form, twitched his face. He met the gaze of the old man with a crimson venomous snake coiled on his shoulder and suddenly shouted coldly, "Quiet down! Don't be fooled by this guy. He must be an accomplice of that guy, deliberately impersonating my elder brother to cause turmoil within our clan! Elders, set up the Ten Thousand Serpents Grand Formation and kill him!"

Upon hearing this, the elders were taken aback, but their subordinates hesitated.

"Haha, Yao Xiaotian, are you in such a hurry to kill me to silence me?" Yao Ming laughed loudly, then turned his gaze to the elders, "Elder Xian, Elder Ming, Elder Liu, you were my closest people back then, don't you even recognize me?"

Hearing Yao Ming's loud laughter, the three white-haired elders glanced at Yao Ming, their faces showing excitement, and said, "It really seems to be Yao Ming. We three are quite familiar with his aura."

"Ming Chang, you three must not disturb the peace of the clan here. The current patriarch of the Nine Netherworld Python Tribe is Yao Xiaotian. Are you trying to betray the clan by doing this?"

The old man with a crimson venomous snake coiled on his shoulder stared at the three men with a sinister gaze and coldly shouted.

"Great Elder, is this really Yao Ming? Is there some misunderstanding?"

The three elders hurriedly said.

"There's no misunderstanding. Back then, I was poisoned and injured by my good brother and the Great Elder, and sealed at the Bottom of Nine Nether Yellow Springs. If I hadn't been rescued this time, I would probably have been sealed in the Nine Nether Yellow Springs for the rest of my life. Now that they see me free, they naturally want to kill me to silence me."

Yao Ming's calm voice, however, was filled with intense killing intent.

"What?"

Yao Ming's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's ears. Instantly, everyone's eyes were focused on Yao Xiaotian and the Great Elder.

"Great Elder, is Yao Ming's statement true?"

At that moment, some elders shouted angrily.

"This man is an imposter. You believe what he says?" The Great Elder in the gray robe said in a gloomy voice. Then, with a wave of his sleeve, he said coldly, "Since that's the case, then I will personally capture him and make him tell the truth so that everyone can have an explanation!"

As soon as the Great Elder finished speaking, his figure suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Yao Ming. His pair of withered hands had turned pitch black, and a strong, fishy stench emanated from them.

"The Withered Leaf Great Poison Palm!"

"Broken!"

As soon as the Great Elder's palm strike began, Xiao Yuan reached out his hand and shook it from afar, saying softly.

Click!

The next moment, a sickeningly loud sound of bones shattering and flesh being crushed rang out, and the Great Elder, along with his soul, was blasted into a cloud of blood mist.

"You don't mind if I do it for you, do you? I'm very busy and in a hurry."

Xiao Yuan turned his head and asked.

"Brother Xiao, please do as you wish. Now that the threat has been eliminated, if Yao Ming still cannot control the situation, he might as well commit suicide on the spot!"

Yao Ming nodded, then took a step forward. Suddenly, he opened his mouth, and a black light shot out, eventually transforming into a black scepter about half a zhang in size, which appeared in his hand. The scepter was entirely black, with two lifelike black venomous snakes coiled around its top. Between the two snakes was a black bead the size of a fist, emitting a faint cold light.

"Elders, do you recognize this item?"

"The Nine Nether Scepter? It's actually the Nine Nether Scepter that's been lost for a hundred years!"

"This is the clan chief's token!"

Gazing at the black scepter, all the elders in the sky changed their expressions, and then their eyes surged with fervor. From the scepter, they felt a pressure from their bloodline. It is said that within the snake bead of the Nine Nether Scepter lies the purest bloodline of the Nine Nether royal family. If the Nine Netherworld Python Tribe Clan could possess this bloodline, it would undoubtedly greatly slow down the rate at which their bloodline thins.

On the other side, Xiao Yuan entered the soul barrier.

Cai Lin, Xiao Yi Xian, and Qing Lian also gathered around.

"Cai Lin, do you want to go directly to the bottom of the Yellow Springs to cultivate, or..."

Xiao Yuan asked with a smile.

"It's been so long since I've seen Zi Yan, let's go see her first."

Cai Lin had already made her choice, so she spoke without hesitation.

"Okay, then we can set off now."

Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded upon hearing this.

"What about this side?"

Xiao Yi Xian was somewhat puzzled.

"Just leave behind an illusory form of ice and lightning."

Xiao Yuan waved his hand, and then condensed Three Thousand Lightning Illusionary Body, Ice Phantom Body, and Soul Clone, stacking them together.

The three women were stunned when they saw the illusory body next to them that looked exactly like Xiao Yuan's real body.

"You go and take care of the follow-up issues here, I'll take them to Ancient Dragon Island."

Xiao Yuan said.

"Good."

The illusionary body nodded.

Let's go!

Xiao Yuan reached out and pulled, and the Space Channel leading to Ancient Dragon Island was formed.

At least Xiao Yuan is now a ninth-order humanoid Ancient Void Dragon, so he still has this much ability.

The next moment, Xiao Yuan led the three women into the Space Channel.

With a casual flick of his wrist, the price Space Channel closed, and the soul barrier dissipated with a wave of his hand.

With the death of the Great Elder and the sealing of Yao Xiaotian's Dou Qi, the position of patriarch of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan naturally returned to Yao Ming.

Yao Ming clearly had no affection left for his own younger brother, only hatred.

In front of everyone, their Magic Core were dug out. Some of Yao Tianxiao's trusted confidants were also arrested by Yao Ming's former direct descendants and are awaiting their fate.

Yao Ming knew what to do at this moment, so he gestured for the elders to wait a moment. He then approached Xiao Yuan's illusory form, bowed respectfully, and solemnly said:

"Yao Ming was freed today and has regained control of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, all thanks to Brother Xiao's strong support. As I mentioned before, Brother Xiao can choose any of the Heaven Rank Battle Skill of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan. However, I just realized that Brother Xiao is an alchemist, right? I have a Dou Technique here that Brother Xiao will surely be interested in. I wonder if Brother Xiao has ever heard of the Yellow Springs Demon Saint?"

"Oh? That Yellow Springs Great Saint who once had one foot in the Dou Di level in ancient times?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan's illusory form revealed an interested smile.
