Serpent Ancestor
Chapter 534: Leave the Void Realm

Xu Hei's palm now bore a strange mark, a golden lotus, the symbol of Lotus True Monarch.

In the blink of an eye.

Just as Xu Hei entered the rift, the four Grand Commanders attacked simultaneously, aiming to kill Xu Hei within the spatial rift. Their methods were beyond Xu Hei's ability to perceive with the naked eye, and he dared not extend his Divine Sense.

"Go in, don't look back!"

Then, Xu Hei heard Lotus True Monarch's voice, the last words of this lingering will.

Lotus True Monarch stood at the rear, using his ethereal form to intercept all the attacks.

Xu Hei accelerated, recklessly rushing into the depths of the Void, heading towards Naihe Bridge.

"Stop him!" Tomb Elder shouted.

At this moment, Xu Hei's sense of danger peaked, a crisis of death loomed over him. He dared not look back, burning his life force without hesitation to reach a new level of speed!

For an Elemental Infant cultivator, this was akin to teleportation!

He didn't know how this speed came about; Xu Hei only thought of the state of mind of those cultivators before their deaths when a meteorite was about to fall. It was this state that allowed him to achieve a brief teleportation.

"Buzz!"

Xu Hei, clutching the Star-Moon Sword, landed on Naihe Bridge like a streak of Flying Light.

At that moment, the crisis in his heart finally dissipated, and he could no longer sense anything behind him, as if the bridge was another world.

Walking on the bridge, Xu Hei's emotions slowly faded, like a walking corpse, moving forward.

With each step, memories of the Void Realm faded away.

Xu Hei felt as if he were dreaming, his consciousness slowly blurring, wandering in a dreamlike state, elusive, seemingly real yet unreal.

He felt a large hand ahead, guiding him on the path to leave.

"The Naihe Bridge set by Canglan Immortal Lord can erase memories of the Void Realm. What a Divine Ability!"

Regarding that legendary figure, Xu Hei could only sigh in his heart.

At the center of the grand tomb.

Tomb Elder sat cross-legged on the mountain peak, remaining motionless.

"That young one's body contained something even I couldn't see through, something that even the heavenly secrets couldn't sense, as if it didn't exist in this world. Do you know what it is?"

Tomb Elder muttered to himself, lowering his head.

Then, he shook his head again.

"Your obsession is truly deep, sealing me for sixty million years, yet you still persist."

"However, the obsession in this tomb has been cleared by ninety percent. Once the last ten percent is cleared, you should dissipate as well."

Tomb Elder smiled faintly, looking at the confused crowd in the distance.

"The remaining people here are no longer suitable for clearing. I will send them out and provide enough benefits to attract more people."

"When I leave, I will eliminate all hidden dangers."

…………

Outer battlefield, at the ruins of Chaos Star City.

Five years had passed since the last group from the Void Realm entered, and the entrance to the Void Realm had long been sealed.

The molten lava from the impact had cooled over five years, forming a massive meteorite crater spanning ten thousand miles. This meteorite had destroyed Chaos Star City and everything nearby.

This place had become a sacred site for stone collectors, with cultivators frequently coming to excavate meteorite fragments. However, due to the hardness of the surface, expensive mining tools were necessary to make any gains.

The high threshold for mining meant that those stationed at the meteorite crater were all major sects with significant influence.

The five major forces—Tianhen Sword Sect, Blood Refining Sect, Divine Puppet Sect, Yan Dao Sect, and Ancient Tomb Sect—each occupied the meteorite crater, collectively taking up eighty percent.

The remaining twenty percent was left to rogue cultivators and smaller sects.

On this day, at a certain spot in the meteorite crater.

The originally stable space suddenly began to shake, then cracked with countless fissures. The central area completely broke open, revealing a gap.

Moments later, a pitch-black flood dragon flew out from the gap, landing on the ground, lying motionless.

This black flood dragon was Xu Hei.

Xu Hei's landing spot was within the meteorite crater, precisely in the territory of the Divine Puppet Sect, immediately drawing their attention.

The white-robed elder, a Divine Puppet Sect elder at the Great Perfection of the Elemental Infant stage, was formidable but still far from a true master.

"Could this flood dragon have come from the Void Realm?" Elder Wang was uncertain.

Elder Wang, quick-witted, swiftly retreated while releasing a puppet to hover near Xu Hei.

Five years ago, the entrance to the Void Realm was at the impact point's center. Those who could enter the Void Realm were no ordinary individuals; at least seven of the top ten experts in the outer battlefield went, and those who could emerge were the elite among them.

He wasn't foolish enough to oppose such a powerful being.

However, the return of a creature suspected to be from the Void Realm was monumental news that he had to report.

…………

Xu Hei felt like he had experienced a long dream, only to forget its content.

After a long time, he opened his eyes, finding himself in a massive meteorite crater, with a figure standing nearby—a puppet in the form of a young girl.

"Where is this?"

Xu Hei had no idea why he was here.

He felt a splitting headache, as if he had forgotten many things, unable to recall anything.

He glanced around, quickly changing his form from a flood dragon to a human, sitting cross-legged.

After meditating for an hour, Xu Hei finally had some clarity.

"I remember now, I entered the Void Realm, and then I appeared here," Xu Hei mused.

They say that events in the Void Realm are forgotten, and it seems true.

Xu Hei checked his belongings, finding Bai Zhi and Ji Ying in the Spirit Beast Ring in a deep sleep, with most of the insects gone, the rest burrowed into stone eggs, also in slumber.

And all the Spirit Stones in the Spirit Beast Ring were gone.

"The Spirit Stones are all gone?" Xu Hei exclaimed.

He checked his remaining storage rings and bags, finding his Spirit Stones truly depleted, until he found a Supreme Spirit Stone still there, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.

Additionally, the Star-Moon Sword seemed different from before.

"September! September!" Xu Hei called out.

"Husband, you're awake!" September responded.

"I'm not your husband. By the way, what's different about you now?" Xu Hei quickly asked.

"I seem to have gained a few new Divine Abilities," September replied.

Xu Hei was taken aback.

He realized he had indeed learned several new Divine Abilities, as if he had always known them. These must be the gains from the Void Realm, not forgotten.

"Star River Sky, Star-Moon Nine Transformations, Flying Sword Teleportation, Nine Swords as One... I've learned so much," Xu Hei thought in amazement.

Moreover, there were items in his storage bag he had never seen before, as if they weren't his.

"Fellow Daoist, you're awake!"

At this moment, the voice of the puppet girl beside him rang out.
