Chapter 73

Boom!

Lin Xuan’s punch directly shattered the coffin lid into fragments.

A shadow flew out from the broken coffin; it was a withered figure, its skin covered in blood and scars, intertwined in a grotesque manner.

The figure landed beside Su Zhengyang, startling him into a state of confusion.

The old eyes of the figure glowed with an eerie blood-red hue, and its face bore rotting marks. Even Su Zhengyang, the current head of the Su family, was unaware that there existed such a terrifying… creature within his own clan!

“Don’t be afraid, I am your ancestor!”

The withered figure smiled ‘kindly’ at Su Zhengyang.

Hearing this, Su Zhengyang’s face lit up with joy. His Su family still had such a heritage; indeed, heaven had not abandoned them!

“Ancestor, it’s this little beast who wants to destroy my Su family! I suspect this little beast has obtained some extraordinary opportunity. As long as we can seize it, my Su family will surely rise to greater heights!”

Su Zhengyang looked greedily at Lin Xuan’s figure, seemingly envisioning the scene of him acquiring the opportunity of the young man before him and elevating his family further.

“You are a descendant of my Su family, so it is only fair for you to offer yourself for your ancestor, right?”

“Kekekek!”

The withered figure grabbed Su Zhengyang like a chick, its blood-red eyes appearing both enchanting and terrifying. It opened its mouth and sank its teeth into Su Zhengyang’s neck.

In less than a moment, it seemed all of Su Zhengyang’s nourishment was drained, leaving behind a desiccated corpse. He stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that he would die at the hands of his own ancestor.

“Delicious, truly delicious! Indeed, among so much blood, the blood of an alchemist is the most delectable!”

The withered figure wiped the blood from its mouth, laughing maniacally with a somewhat sickly expression.

The scarlet eyes emitted a strange red light that sent chills down one’s spine.

“Little one, you possess a deadly temptation for me!”

“With your special constitution, I never expected to encounter such an opportunity!”

“As long as I eat you, this body will surely advance further, transforming into a higher-level spirit puppet!”

The withered figure opened its enormous fangs, sticky fluid dripping from its mouth. This made Lin Xuan frown; this monster truly repulsed him.

Killing one’s own descendants at will, even if they retained the wisdom of their past life, could not truly be called human. Even in consciousness, it was likely to be utterly disconnected from humanity.

If this thing were to escape, it could spell endless trouble!

Thinking of this, Lin Xuan’s murderous intent surged.

Creak!

The void distorted slightly, emitting unbearable sounds of strain, and the entire cave was filled with an intense, unspeakable murderous aura!

At this moment, a pale white lotus flower bloomed and burned on Lin Xuan’s forehead, his vital energy surging violently. Divine light erupted all around him, creating an unmatched aura that rippled through the air.

Seventh-layer Qi Sea… Eighth-layer Qi Sea… Ninth-layer Qi Sea…

Boom!

Lin Xuan felt as if a shackle within him had snapped, unleashing a terrifying aura. His white hair billowed, hovering in the air; standing on a white lotus, his clothes fluttered like an exalted deity suppressing everything!

Everything around seemed to freeze, trapped in stasis!

The power of the Ice Lotus King Body was fully revealed at this moment!

Looking at Lin Xuan in this state, the withered ancestor of the Su family showed excitement in his scarlet eyes: “Indeed, a special constitution!”

“Kid, I want to eat you!”

With a hoarse roar, the Su family elder erupted with an extreme and terrifying aura, instantly vanishing from his spot to directly strike down on Lin Xuan from above.

“Path Fire Three Transformations… First Transformation!”

Boom!

The entire cave trembled violently, the lake of corpses evaporating, and the massive entrance gradually collapsing. The ground of the entire Su family suddenly shook.

…

“What happened over there?”

The King of Hundred Battles, who was engaged in combat with another elder of the Su family, couldn’t help but feel puzzled. This terrifying fluctuation of aura had definitely reached the pinnacle of the Divine Ability realm. Could it be that the Su family had hidden depths?

“Hehehe, Old Ghost of Hundred Battles, do you think you can destroy my Su family?”

“It has awakened, haha! This time, your royal family will become sacrifices!”

The Su family elder, fighting with the King of Hundred Battles, laughed loudly. Clearly, this old immortal who had allied with the Su family knew some of their secrets.

“Then I’ll take care of you first.”

“Captain Jin, let’s make our move!”

Sensing something was amiss, the King of Hundred Battles immediately called upon the armored King Jin, who had been observing the surroundings.

“Divine Ability: Golden Armor!”

The golden battle armor transformed into a massive shadow, swinging a punch toward the Su family elder.

“Divine Ability: Hundred Battles!”

Countless weapons rained down like a hailstorm, creating ripples in the void.

“Damn, you guys don’t play by the rules!”

The Su family elder lamented in anger, one King of Hundred Battles was already suppressing him, and now there was another King Jin…

Not only that, but the King of Treasures, seeing the terrifying beast hundreds of feet tall, gritted his teeth and said, “Old Ghost of Hundred Flames, come over and join us. Let’s end this quickly!”

“I’ll give you a fifth-tier elixir!”

“Three!”

“Get lost, only two!”

“Deal!”

Outside the Su family,

The Extreme Decline King looked at the numerous Divine Ability realm experts approaching and growled, “That black-faced kid, trap them with the formation. We split the elixirs fifty-fifty!”

“Just waiting for this!” Li Qiudao laughed loudly.

The terrifying formation immediately surrounded all the other forces coming to support.

“That guy… should be fine, right?”

“If anything happens, my formation is enough to protect him.”

Li Qiudao whispered as he gazed at the distant fluctuations.

…

Looking at the deep pit left behind, there was not a single remnant. The withered figure sensed something was off.

“Path Fire Three Transformations… Second Transformation!”

An extreme chill came from behind, as if the void would freeze over. The cold feeling was undeniable, yet it also conveyed an intense heat as if one were deep within a volcano.

Even this already lifeless corpse, though it had no sensation, could still feel both cold and heat.

“Not good!”

The withered figure tried to turn around but saw a large hand pressing down a pale white lotus flower firmly onto its head.

Boom!

Brilliant fireworks erupted from its face, the bone-deep pain causing the withered corpse to involuntarily howl in agony.

This was the Path Fire, which even carried a soul attack.

“Divine Ability: War God!”

Many mysterious runes flickered and intertwined, and a massive fist seemed capable of suppressing the heavens, falling toward the location of the withered figure.
