บท 458: Chapter 458: Yao Ming

Deep within the Underground Serene Snake Network lay an immense black abyss. This abyss spanned a width of three hundred meters and seemed to have no bottom. An astonishingly dark and icy aura surged upward from its depths, akin to a relentless gale. If an ordinary expert were to be here, they would feel their blood and Dou Qi freeze.

At the abyss's bottom lay the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe's holy pool, the Nine Serene Spring. This was Xiao Ming's current objective.

Imprisoned beneath the abyss was the former tribal chief, Yao Ming, who had achieved the strength of a two-star Dou Saint. Once he was liberated, the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe would naturally be at Xiao Ming's disposal.

At that point, the Huang Quan Stone Tablet, which held the inheritance of the Demon Saint Huang Quan, would also be at his disposal.

The deep abyss had minimal defenses, as everyone understood that the incessant dark and cold gales blowing from its depths served as natural guards. Even Dou Ancestor-level experts wouldn't dare venture too deep.

Chi!

Amidst the unending gusts of chilling wind, the space suddenly distorted, and a figure slowly appeared. It was naturally Xiao Ming.

He cast a fleeting glance at the pitch-black abyss and gave a faint smile before moving on without delay.

The abyss was profoundly deep. Even with his speed, he only managed to see the ground of the abyss after around five minutes or so.

An extremely huge lake appeared in his eyes as he approached the ground. A dark and chilly aura that could freeze the Dou Qi within one's body spread from it.

The lake was vast, its water taking on a deep yellow hue. Threads of a blood-like luster seemed to flow within the deep yellow color. Wisps of pale yellow vapor, mixed with faint traces of blood, seeped out and eventually rose to the sky.

'This should be the legendary Nine Serene Spring.' Xiao Ming mused, a smile forming on his lips. He approached the lake with measured steps. With his approach, waves of chilling aura surged toward him.

As he reached the lakeshore, Xiao Ming hesitated briefly. Then, he lowered his hand, submerging his palm into the water. An icy-cold power immediately spread outward.

Simultaneously, visible to the naked eye, a layer of deep yellow ice crystals swiftly encased his palm, spreading from there to his arm.

Xiao Ming retracted his hand and gave it a shake, shattering the ice crystals instantly.

'This chilling sensation rivals the Endless Spirit Ice. Even the Nine Serene Deep Ground Pythons won't be able to endure this for long. The Nine Serene Spring is truly extraordinary.'

Even as a Dou Saint who had long been immune to extreme temperatures, Xiao Ming felt the long-forgotten chill within the Nine Serene Spring.

It was worth noting that when Xiao Ming obtained the Endless Spirit Ice, he hadn't experienced this sensation. Although this was partly due to the Endless Spirit Ice's more subtle nature and his use of the Heavenly Flame, it demonstrated just how immense the chilling energy of this Nine Serene Spring was.

No wonder Medusa was able to directly break through to the Dou Saint realm by using this place.

Shaking off his wandering thoughts, Xiao Ming's mind flickered, and a dense Heavenly Flame quickly permeated out of countless pores on his body. The horrifying high temperature clashed with the cold aura upon contact, resulting in an immense white mist surging out.

Splash!

After summoning the Heavenly Flame, Xiao Ming's figure moved, directly diving into the Nine Serene Spring. Then, with lightning-like speed, he shot towards the abyss's bottom.

Sizzle!

Under the water's surface, the flames enveloping Xiao Ming clashed fiercely with the frigid lake water imbued with a chilling aura.

He could sense the intense collision, and his Dou Qi consumption was rapidly increasing. Even though his Dou Qi was richer than that of an average Dou Saint of the same stage, he wasn't eager to test how long he could withstand within the Nine Serene Spring.

His speed increased dramatically with a simple movement of his body. As he darted through the pitch-black lake bottom, he transformed into an afterimage and left a water trail in the Nine Serene Spring.

The Heavenly Flame wildly surged as Xiao Ming ventured deeper into the Nine Serene Spring. The dark and cold force grew stronger as he went deeper. He eventually had to use all of his strength to circulate his Dou Qi and scatter the cold Qi that had invaded his body.

When Xiao Ming left, he left a water trail with his flames in the water, which was quickly swallowed up by the chilling lake waters. This disturbance, however, alerted the lake's native inhabitants.

Hiss!

A strange hissing sound echoed and reached Xiao Ming's ears. His expression remained unchanged as he extended his soul power, revealing dark silhouettes in his perception.

The shadowy figures resembled snakes, with pitch-black bodies, crimson snake eyes, and flickering tongues. They swiftly approached him at incredible speed.

Xiao Ming reacted swiftly. The moment the figures emerged, he swung a fist, and a powerful gust of wind sliced through the water. While slightly weakened, it still turned the snake-like creatures into a mass of flesh.

As if a switch had been triggered, numerous strange snakes emerged from the lake. With their crimson eyes glaring, they hissed and roared, aggressively charging towards him.

Sizzle!

While still a considerable distance from Xiao Ming, these creatures opened their massive jaws. Countless dark water arrows shot forth from their mouths in an instant. 

Upon encountering the lake water, it naturally split apart, accelerating the speed of the water arrows. The whirring sound of arrows slicing through the air shook the surrounding lake water, producing a deep, explosive sound.

"Tsk, reckless fools!"

Xiao Ming's expression turned cold. He glanced behind him before clenching his hand. A cluster of flames appeared within it. He then flung the flames back, and they swiftly expanded into a fire cloud that spread out.

The fire cloud expanded into a sea of fire. Even though the dark and cold force couldn't be extinguished, the strange snakes failed to halt in time, causing them to collide with the sea of fire. The high temperature incinerated all of the strange snakes that collided with it in an instant.

Squeak, squeak!

Facing such frightening fire, fear crept into the hearts of the creatures. After losing a significant number of their kin, they finally pulled back. No longer daring to approach, they could only spew black water arrows from a distance, gradually extinguishing the sea of flames bit by bit…

But, by this time, Xiao Ming had vanished without a trace.

Xiao Ming's gaze scanned the area below after shaking off those annoying creatures, only to discover a glow. His spirits rose, and he accelerated his pace. He arrived at the glowing location a split second later.

Before him stood an immensely vast expanse of sandy ground. Countless fist-sized rock fragments were scattered across it.

A luster flickered from these rock fragments. The emitted glow was the reason why the bottom of the lake appeared relatively bright.

'So, this is the bottom of the Nine Serene Spring. If my assumptions are correct, the former tribal chief of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe, Yao Ming, must have been sealed by his own brother here.'

Xiao Ming's gaze swept in all directions, examining any unusual spots nearby. In such a confined space, if someone were hidden here, they would be easily noticed.

"Save me... Sa...ve... me..."

Just as Xiao Ming was searching, an extremely faint groaning sound suddenly reached his ears, passing through the barriers of the water's flow.

บท 459: Chapter 459: Spring Blood Crystal

'Found you!'

Hearing that faint sound, a trace of a smile crossed Xiao Ming's eyes. He extended his soul perception and meticulously searched the direction from which the sound had come.

However, just as Xiao Ming focused, the peculiar sound vanished as if it had never appeared in the first place.

'Why hide again?'

Xiao Ming's brows slightly furrowed. His gaze gradually lowered. If someone were truly hidden here, it would only be beneath the sand. Without hesitation, he fiercely grabbed downwards.

Splash!

With that forceful palm strike, the sandy ground was instantly marked by his imprint. Amidst the rolling sand and rocks, a massive metal chain, a hundred meters in length, was exposed to Xiao Ming's line of sight.

Seeing this immense metal chain, a faint smile curved Xiao Ming's lips. With a casual wave of his hand, the chain was slowly pulled out.

As the ground shook, three more metal chains emerged from the ground. These metal chains were connected to a mountain-like outcropping, impossible to budge with a tug.

Xiao Ming paid no attention to where the metal chains were connected. His gaze remained fixed on the center of the four chains. A large cluster of black mud lay there...

Looking at the cluster of mud, Xiao Ming chuckled and casually waved his hand. The mud was instantly dispersed, revealing what lay within. It was a person!

A person whose body was dry and shriveled like a skeleton!

'Although he's extremely weak, his former power is still evident. Truly worthy of being the most talented individual of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe. It's not in vain that I made this trip!' Xiao Ming's eyes held a hint of joy as he lightly laughed.

"Save me.... save me! And I will get the entire Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe to be your subordinate!"

While Xiao Ming gazed at the shriveled human figure, the eyes of the latter suddenly opened. Those eyes were slightly crazed as they stared at him. A hoarse roar reverberated across the bottom of the spring. It resembled the cry of a ghost, chilling one's heart in the process.

Xiao Ming continued to smile, completely unaffected by the figure's roar, waiting for him to calm down.

"Hu hu…"

After a while, the skeleton-like human figure gradually quieted down. The struggle from earlier seemed to have drained a considerable amount of his strength, and he now panted.

Xiao Ming could sense an extremely dark and cold energy being emitted from those four large metal chains, depleting the figure's Dou Qi. This caused the figure to remain in an extremely weak state, but it would not take his life. All this figure could do was live on the edge of his last breath amid this perpetual exhaustion.

Such a method left Xiao Ming shaking his head in disbelief. Yao Xiaotian was indeed a good little brother, treating his older brother in such a brutal way.

Glancing at the now silent figure, Xiao Ming spoke, "Why don't you start with a self-introduction?"

"..."

"I am Yao Ming, the chief of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe."

Facing Xiao Ming's words, the skeletal figure hesitated for a moment before finally speaking. His voice was extremely hoarse, like sandpaper scraping against glass, piercing to the ears.

"Is that your entire self-introduction? As far as I know, the current chief of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe is Yao Xiaotian," Xiao Ming said in a soft voice.

"That scum, that bastard! He's the one who used a treacherous scheme to snatch my position and sealed me at the bottom of this Nine Serene Spring. Ah! That beast. He subjected me to centuries of torment in this dark and cold abyss. If I'm fortunate enough to see daylight again, I, Yao Ming, will make sure he suffers a fate worse than death!"

As the name Yao Xiaotian reached his ears, Yao Ming's eyes instantly turned blood-red. An overwhelming sense of resentment emanated from him, and his furious roar reverberated ceaselessly at the depths of the spring.

"So you were saying you'll have the tribe follow me as subordinates?"

"Yes, I possess the Nine Serene Profound Scepter, the symbol of the chief of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe. Possessing the Profound Scepter is the true mark of being the chief. Once I break free and deal with Yao Xiaotian, I will become the tribal chief. The other elders will also have to obey my orders! I'll make the entire Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe follow your lead," Yao Ming pleaded urgently.

"Really? I don't believe you."

"No, you have to believe me! Although I, Yao Ming, might not be a paragon of virtue, my words hold immense weight... If you save me, I'll obey your commands. I'll do whatever you ask of me!" Yao Ming's initial astonishment turned into desperation as he spoke.

"Don't bother saying such things. I don't trust you. However, there's a way I can save you. I can even help you regain your position as the tribal chief. But you'll have to voluntarily release your soul and allow me to place a spiritual imprint on it. If you lie or deceive me, I'll trigger the spiritual seal. Even if you're a Dou Saint expert, you'll undoubtedly be severely injured, and your future progress will be forever hindered."

Xiao Ming spoke this way, but in reality, he didn't particularly care whether Yao Ming would betray him after being rescued. After all, Yao Ming's strength was only a two-star Dou Saint, and dealing with him wouldn't require much effort on his part. 

However, the real concern was securing Demon Saint Huang Quan's inheritance. If Yao Ming harbored resentment and caused trouble during that time, it would undoubtedly complicate matters.

Hence, retaining some means of control was still quite necessary.

Upon hearing Xiao Ming's response, Yao Ming opened his mouth but found himself unable to voice his thoughts. Trusting Xiao Ming completely after their initial encounter wasn't easy for him. His nature didn't lean towards submission, yet the accumulated bitterness and hatred he'd endured over centuries surged within him.

Gripping his teeth tightly, he let out a low roar, "Alright, I'll do as you say. I can no longer bear this hatred. I'll tear that scoundrel into countless pieces!"

Xiao Ming was not surprised after hearing that Yao Ming had actually agreed to his proposal.

Yao Ming took a deep breath, and a glimmer shimmered between his brows. Invisible soul power surged forth, ultimately coalescing into a large black snake before him.

Seeing Yao Ming proactively summon his soul, Xiao Ming smiled. His mind moved and a hint of heated soul power shot forth and rapidly invaded the forehead of the black giant snake. As the spiritual imprint entered the giant snake's forehead, its body quivered violently before scattering and returning to Yao Ming's brow.

Xiao Ming could sense Yao Ming's spiritual fluctuation the moment his soul returned to his brow. All he needed was a thought, and the spiritual imprint, which contained the power of a Heavenly Flame, would explode and shatter Yao Ming's soul into pieces.

"By the way, bring me a Spring Blood Crystal from this Nine Serene Spring."

The Spring Blood Crystal was a main ingredient for refining Ninth-Tier Treasure Pills. Even within the Nine Serene Spring, it was exceptionally rare. Typically, it took nearly a thousand years for a piece about the size of a palm to form.

Since most of the Spring Blood Crystals in this area had been devoured by Yao Ming, Xiao Ming made this request.

Yao Ming hesitated for a moment, then suddenly opened his mouth, and a blood-red light shot out. It halted in front of Xiao Ming, revealing a blood-colored crystal about the size of a fist. Within the crystal, blood seemed to flow as if it were alive, lending it an eerie appearance.

Xiao Ming reached out and took the blood-colored crystal suspended before him. Upon contact, a bone-chilling, dark force spread through his hand, instantly freezing his arm.

'It is indeed a Spring Blood Crystal. This intensity of dark and cold force is genuinely terrifying.'

Seeing this, Xiao Ming nodded with a hint of satisfaction. He shook his arm, breaking the ice crystals that had formed, and then stored the blood crystal in his storage ring.

"You've done well. It's time to set you free. By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. I am the Alliance Leader of the Heavenly Court, Xiao Ming. You can address me as Alliance Leader Xiao from now on."

"Yes, Alliance Leader Xiao!"

Though curious about this so-called Heavenly Court, Yao Ming's imminent liberation kept him from delving into further questions. He simply looked at Xiao Ming with eager anticipation.

Xiao Ming understood his sentiment and followed the chain with his gaze, which was deeply inserted into a dark-black mountain-like outcropping. This mountain shape was not large. It was only over a few dozen meters in size, but the dark and cold force contained within it caused Xiao Ming to involuntarily shudder despite having the protection of a Heavenly Flame.

"This is the source of the cold energy..."

Xiao Ming's figure shifted, and he arrived before the mountain in an instant. Staring at the dark-black surface, he clenched his fist, and a vast surge of Dou Qi burst forth. He then slammed his fist forcefully into the mountain body.

Boom!

Ripples resembling huge waves spread from the point of impact, but the dark-black mountain merely trembled slightly. This punch from Xiao Ming, which could easily take down a high-level Half-Saint expert, had left not even a mark on it.

"Tsk tsk, this Yellow Spring Yin Rock is quite the treasure."

Xiao Ming chuckled softly, no longer wasting any effort. He curled his two fingers together, and an extremely compressed strand of Heavenly Flame extended from them, resembling a sharp blade.

With Xiao Ming's motion, the flame blade effortlessly slid into the mountain body at the end of the metal chain. After a short while, it felt as if it had come into contact with an unusually hard circular object.

Without hesitation, Xiao Ming exerted a sudden force with his fingers, and the flame blade ruthlessly penetrated the hard pellet-like object.

Crack!

As the blade pierced the pellet, an odd fluctuation was emitted from the outcropping. Immediately, the massive metal chain broke apart.

Following the same method, Xiao Ming destroyed the remaining three chains connected to the dark-black mountain.
