"What exactly is this?"
"This is definitely not poison."
Su Xiuyi's face showed shock, and she chose to ask the system.
[This is a drop of God blood, corrupted God blood, containing extremely strange laws—a special kind of Dao, which you may call Inauspiciousness.]
The system's voice rang in Su Xiuyi's mind.
"The tainted blood of God?"
"No wonder it allowed me to instantly reach the Middle Stage of the Dao Venerable Realm; it's truly unbelievable."
"I never imagined that a drop of tainted God blood would still possess such power after all these years."
A storm raged within Su Xiuyi's heart.
He couldn't help but wonder what benefits he would gain if he could obtain the true blood of God.
Su Xiuyi glanced at the sleeping ancestor, who showed no signs of waking up.
He needed some more time, then closed his eyes and silently sensed the ominous law.
Not long after, Su Xiuyi opened her eyes, her face showing excitement.
Su Xiuyi discovered that this avenue was very special and extremely terrifying.
However, Su Xiuyi also discovered a problem: the path to becoming powerful is very difficult.
Su Xiuyi used the system.
The next moment, a drop of blood appeared in front of him.
The drop of blood no longer possessed its previous mystical aura; only eeriness and Inauspiciousness.
The God blood contained within has already been absorbed by Su Xiuyi. Now, this drop of blood is an extremely terrifying poison. If someone is contaminated with it, even Peak Stage of Dao Venerable would surely die.
That drop of black blood is terrifying.
Su Xiuyi carefully put it away, keeping it as her trump card.
Su Xiuyi sensed that the sleeping ancestor had regained some vitality, and turned to leave the house.
"Grandpa, you can come in now."
Outside the house, Su Chen, who was looking tense, heard Su Xiuyi's words and his eyes showed disbelief.
I was very nervous after I came out.
Every minute and every second seemed so long to him.
Su Chen was very worried, fearing that something might happen to Su Xiuyi.
After all, Su Chen knew very well how terrifying that poison was.
He somewhat regretted letting Su Xiuyi take action.
However, just as he was struggling with his expression, Su Xiuyi's voice rang out.
"What? Is it done?"
Upon hearing Su Xiuyi's words, disbelief appeared in Su Chen's eyes. Su Chen had never expected Su Xiuyi to be so fast.
After all, Su Chen had witnessed the terrifying power of that poisonous blood. Once you came into contact with it, you would surely die, and there was no way to remove it. Even the slightest touch of Dharma Power could be fatal.
However, from the time he came out until now, it had only been a quarter of an hour at most. Su Chen never expected that Su Xiuyi would have already cured the poison in such a short time.
His face was full of confusion.
However, upon seeing Su Xiuyi nod, Su Chen couldn't help but gasp.
He hurriedly entered the house, and the next moment he walked to the ice coffin. Su Chen sensed the condition of his ancestor, and his eyes showed disbelief.
Su Chen discovered that the ancestor had regained his vitality, and the strange aura within his body had disappeared.
"This is real, it's actually real."
"You actually did it, kid."
"Grandpa even wondered if you were the one who did it."
"That's great, that's great!"
"Once the ancestor awakens, many things will become much simpler."
Su Chen's body trembled slightly with excitement at that moment.
He patted Su Xiuyi's shoulder with his large hand.
However, Su Chen was very cautious at the moment, using his Dharma Power to prevent the sound from spreading, and no one discovered anything about what was happening here.
Suppressing his joy, Su Chen quickly intervened to awaken the sleeping ancestor.
Half an hour later, the Su Clan patriarch slowly opened his eyes, a look of disbelief in them.
Am I not dead?
The old man looked puzzled.
" Su Chen greets the Ancestor."
" Su Xiuyi greets the Ancestor."
Inside the room, Su Chen and Su Xiuyi quickly bowed.
"Um?"
Who is this?
When his gaze fell on Su Xiuyi, the old man was taken aback; he had never seen Su Xiuyi before.
Su Chen quickly explained.
"Ancestor, this is the Shenghuang's son."
"It was he who helped the ancestor eliminate the toxins from his body."
"Without him, Ancestor, you would never have been able to awaken. We are utterly incompetent."
Su Chen explained.
Did you save me?
How did you do that?
However, the old man looked at Su Xiuyi with an icy expression.
He was acutely aware of how terrible the poison was when he was poisoned, and he didn't believe that Su Xiuyi, a person at the Middle Stage of the Dao Venerable Realm, could remove the poison from her body.
However, Su Xiuyi remained remarkably calm in the face of the Su Clan patriarch's icy gaze.
"To be precise, Ancestor, you were not poisoned."
"Instead, they were outmaneuvered."
"If I'm not mistaken, someone dropped a drop of black blood on the ancestor."
Su Xiuyi explained calmly and confidently.
Upon hearing Su Xiuyi's words, everyone, including Su Chen, showed a look of confusion on their faces.
"What? Isn't that poison? What is it then?"
At that moment, Su Chen also showed a look of shock.
"Grandpa, let me explain."
"That drop of blood was God blood, but it was God blood tainted by a strange aura. The blood was contaminated, not because it contained deadly poison, but God that incredibly strange power caused the God blood to mutate."
"The reason I was able to help you, Grandfather, is because I recently entered the God Burial Valley and, by chance, mastered this Great Dao."
"That sinister and ominous power is a special kind of Dao, but I cannot strengthen this Dao either."
"But unexpectedly, I was able to save my ancestor."
"The reason I didn't let Grandpa know is that I didn't want this news to get out, otherwise people would think that the grandson had schemed against the old man."
Su Xiuyi didn't hide anything.
The moment the voice fell, Su Xiuyi waved her hand, and an incomparably strange power of the Great Dao appeared.
In that instant, some of the spiritual herbs in the room withered.
Upon seeing the strange power of the Great Dao swirling around Su Xiuyi's hands, Su Chen and the old man's pupils constricted, their eyes revealing shock.
The next moment, a drop of black blood appeared in front of Su Xiuyi; it was the black blood from which Su Xiuyi had absorbed the divine essence.
"This is it."
When the Su Clan patriarch saw the drop of black blood before him, his pupils contracted slightly; even now, he was extremely wary.
After showing it to them, Su Xiuyi carefully put it away.
"This is good stuff."
"Since someone was able to use this to scheme against the Ancestor, we can use it to scheme against him in return."
"Grandpa, but I think that the fact that the Ancestor has regained consciousness must absolutely not be known to a third party."
Su Xiuyi's expression turned serious as she spoke.
Su Chen nodded.
He also believed that this matter had nothing to do with Su Xiuyi, and the cold look on the face of the Su Clan patriarch slowly disappeared.
"Ancestor, what exactly happened that day?"
When Su Chen saw that the ancestor had woken up, his expression was extremely solemn. Su Chen wanted to know what exactly had happened back then.
Upon hearing this, the old man's expression turned icy cold.
"It's a long story. On that day, when I was instructing the Shenghuang in cultivation, someone from the Su Clan came to request an audience. I was in high spirits at the time and did not refuse, but I never expected that he would scheme against me. I never imagined that there would be a traitor in my Su Clan."
Is Su Yunxiao still alive?
"Were they silenced?"
The Su Clan patriarch's gaze fell on Su Chen.
"Ancestor, you're saying that the one who attacked you that day wasn't the Shenghuang, but Su Yunxiao."
"They are elders of our lineage."
"But Su Yunxiao is a direct descendant of our lineage."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen's expression changed slightly. He hadn't expected that there would be a pawn of the other side within their own lineage.
"That's right, it's him. If it weren't him, who could have outmaneuvered me?"
"Because he was a direct descendant of the main branch, I didn't pay much attention to him at the time, and he ended up outmaneuvering me."
Where is Su Yunxiao?
The Su Clan Ancestor God was icy cold.
He died then and there.
"Killed by the Shenghuang."
"This matter is quite complicated, because of it, the Shenghuang has also lost his qualification to become the head of the family."
"If the Fourth Ancestor hadn't forcibly awakened at that time, the Shenghuang would probably be dead."
"Because many powerful members of the Su Clan broke in that day, saying they saw the Shenghuang attack you."
Su Chen explained with an embarrassed expression.
Tension rose instantly; they hadn't expected that the one who attacked their lineage's patriarch was someone from their own lineage.
Moreover, Su Yunxiao is already dead, and the trail has completely gone cold.
"Killing two birds with one stone?"
What a vicious thought!
"The people who appeared when I was poisoned that day were not only Su Yunxiao, but also members of the Undying Blood Clan."
"That drop of black blood came from the Undying Blood Clan."
Hearing these words from the Su Clan patriarch, Su Chen was not shocked.
"Ancestor, we've uncovered some clues these past few days. Someone in the Su Clan is colluding with the Undying Blood Clan, but they're being extremely cautious. Even now, we haven't obtained any evidence."
"Although there are suspects, I dare not confront them directly."
"If it's really good, then it's fine; otherwise, it will tear the entire Su Clan apart."
"And I feel there are many suspicious points."
"However, the ancestor's awakening is now a crucial point."
"The ancestor can leave a clone here to continue sleeping, while the ancestor himself can remain hidden and investigate."
"Perhaps we can find some useful information."
"Since a traitor has emerged from our lineage, we can no longer be certain that there are no pawns of the enemy within our lineage now."
"Moreover, the other party's identity and status should be quite high. Some of our plans cannot avoid him, and all the powerful individuals will be targeted by him, making it difficult for them to do certain things. This is something that our ancestor is capable of doing."
Su Chen said with an icy expression.
"This plan is good."
The anger on the Su Clan patriarch's face subsided somewhat in that instant.
The next moment, a clone emerged from his body.
They entered the ice coffin.
Su Xiuyi took out the drop of black blood and threw it into the ice coffin.
Soon, Su Xiuyi and Su Chen left the place.
"Grandpa, it seems our situation isn't as good as I thought."
"I initially thought this was a conflict between two factions, but it's clear that our faction is now facing significant problems."
Many plans can no longer be implemented.
Su Xiuyi frowned slightly.
Things become extremely difficult once someone in a high-ranking position around you has a problem.
Some of their plans and the whereabouts of powerful individuals will be detected by the enemy.
It's too difficult to do things discreetly.
"Now we can only rely on you."
"The power I wield is no longer reliable."
"Is the Dark Hall something you secretly control, kid?"
Su Chen's gaze fell on Su Xiuyi.
Su Xiuyi nodded.
"That's good. Now, even though many of our actions can't escape their notice, the Dark Hall can't interfere. This force is enough to break the deadlock."
A look of joy appeared on Su Chen's face.
At this moment, hope has been seen, and now the ancestor has completely disappeared into the shadows.
Perhaps we can set a trap to expose them.
"The struggle between the two factions will take a long time, and no victor will be determined in a short period of time."
"The most important thing right now is your cultivation level."
"Your cultivation level is still a bit weak. I think Su Ming still has some trump cards up his sleeve."
We cannot underestimate them.
"They hid too well."
"If you can reach the peak of Dao Venerable or even Demigod, then no matter how many schemes and tricks Su Ming has, they will all be in vain."
"Grandpa is already making preparations; he'll arrange for you to enter the Dragon Transformation Pool in a few days."
Su Chen said with a smile.
"I'll do whatever Grandpa says."
Su Xiuyi smiled slightly.
Su Chen left quickly. Now that he knew some things, he needed to change some of his plans.
Su Xiuyi's face showed anticipation.
Soon, they arrived at a canyon.
This place is rumored to be the place where an elder of the Su Clan cultivated himself.
This place holds great opportunities.
We have just entered the canyon.
The system's voice sounded in Su Xiuyi's mind.
[The Land of Opportunity has refreshed. Would you like to sign in immediately?]
"Check-in."
Su Xiuyi's thought immediately came to mind.
Su Xiuyi was very excited, wondering what she could sign up for here.
[Check-in successful.]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Ancestral Dragon Blood.]
The instant the system's voice faded, a drop of blood appeared before Su Xiuyi. This drop of blood floated there quietly, yet it seemed to possess the power to destroy heaven and earth.
Within that drop of blood, Su Xiuyi sensed an incomparably terrifying power of lightning.
Su Xiuyi knew that this must be the essence blood of the Thunder Ancestral Dragon.
Looking at the drop of blood before her, Su Xiuyi became even more curious about the Imperial Su Clan.
What exactly is the background of the Su Clan?
Su Xiuyi immediately began to fuse with the drop of dragon blood within the canyon.
Su Xiuyi discovered that this was not an ordinary drop of essence blood, but a drop of inherited essence blood.
The moment Su Xiuyi refined this drop of Ancestral Dragon Blood, a cultivation technique appeared in Su Xiuyi mind.
Chaos Thunder Dragon Formula.
Su Xiuyi's face showed excitement.
Su Xiuyi's Ancestral Dragon Formula requires incorporating the inherited techniques of various Ancestral Dragon.
Now, having received the inherited techniques of the Thunder Ancestral Dragon here, and integrating them into the Ancestral Dragon Formula, the Ancestral Dragon Formula has undergone another transformation.
Su Xiuyi's face showed excitement.
Begin perfecting the Ancestral Dragon Formula.
The Ancestral Dragon Formula is Su Xiuyi's main cultivation method. With each transformation, Su Xiuyi's cultivation level will also transform.
