Serpent Ancestor
Chapter 551: The Dragon of Adversity Tu Sen

Xu Hei opened his eyes, which were completely black, like a pair of voids, devoid of any emotion.

"Yellow Spring Finger!"

Wen Yong from the Ancient Tomb Sect pointed a finger at him, but Xu Hei didn't dodge at all, standing there as if in a daze, allowing the attack to land.

"Snap!"

A hole was drilled through Xu Hei's body, yet he remained motionless, a strange smile curling on his lips.

He touched the wound and suddenly started laughing.

"Hehehe... Hahaha!"

The laughter grew louder, more rampant, echoing like thunder.

"It's been so long since I felt pain. This sensation is amazing! More! Come on, hit me again!"

Elder Wen's face darkened, and he pointed several more times, the deathly energy piercing through Xu Hei's chest and back, leaving several holes.

Each time he was hit, Xu Hei laughed loudly, as if it wasn't pain but the ultimate pleasure.

"Thud, thud, thud..."

The other cultivators from the Ancient Tomb Sect joined in, unleashing various spells and divine abilities on Xu Hei. He didn't activate any defenses, allowing the attacks to tear his body apart, leaving him bloodied and battered, lying on the ground like a corpse, barely alive.

Yet, he stood up again, his face a mess, but still smiling eerily.

"You're not him. Who are you?!"

Elder Wen noticed something was wrong and shouted angrily.

Xu Hei smiled slightly, his broken face chilling to behold.

He raised his skeletal hand, placing it on his face, and said slowly, "Remember, I am the Dragon of Calamity, Tu Sen."

"The pain you inflicted, returned tenfold!"

In Tu Sen's palm, countless runes appeared, spreading from Xu Hei's forehead across his body. He smiled slightly:

"Calamity Resonance!"

At that moment, the bodies of the Ancient Tomb Sect members who attacked earlier suddenly froze.

Their bodies emitted cracking sounds, holes appearing and twisting like they were hit by the Yellow Spring Finger, exploding with blood and flesh.

"What's happening?"

"Not good!"

"Ah!!"

Horrific screams echoed from every member of the Ancient Tomb Sect. Those who attacked Xu Hei were now covered in wounds, suffering ten times the damage he had.

"Crack, crack..."

In just a few breaths, all the attackers from the Ancient Tomb Sect were annihilated, leaving only Elder Wen, whose flesh was blasted to dust, standing as a skeletal figure in mid-air.

His body emitted deathly energy, and red flames burned in his eye sockets, as if possessed by another eerie entity.

"Who are you to dare destroy my Ancient Tomb Sect? Such audacity!"

A chilling voice emanated from the skull, like a sound from the underworld, echoing in Xu Hei's mind.

Xu Hei, or rather, Tu Sen, merely chuckled coldly, "A mere early Divine Transformation stage dares to act mysterious before me. Don't think that just because you're a mere wisp of a soul, I can't harm your true self!"

Tu Sen vanished on the spot, reappearing before the skull, reaching for its eye sockets.

The skull disappeared again, appearing behind Tu Sen.

However, Tu Sen's claw, though striking empty air, caused the skull to scream, as the nether fire in its eyes was caught in Tu Sen's palm.

"Curse Eye!"

In Tu Sen's left eye, black matter swirled like a vortex, and a dark beam shot into the nether fire.

At that moment, an indescribably powerful curse crossed the endless void, descending upon the true body on the other side.

Ming Star.

This was a cultivation star perpetually shrouded in darkness, half the size of the Divine Continent Star, with a cold, damp climate, far from the sun, barely feeling its warmth.

The Ancient Tomb Sect was the largest sect on Ming Star.

Suddenly, a mournful horn sounded within the sect, alarming everyone inside and out.

The sect master of the Ancient Tomb Sect was about to rush to the forbidden area but was stopped by the owner of the scream with a stern voice.

"Don't come in, no one approach me!"

At this moment, the Grand Elder of the Ancient Tomb Sect had blood gushing from his eyes, his flesh dissolving at a terrifying speed, his face filled with fear.

After a long while, a command was issued from within the Ancient Tomb Sect: "Relay my order, once the outer battlefield opens, no one is allowed to return to the sect!"

…………

In Liefeng City.

Xu Hei was the last of the five to act, but the Ancient Tomb Sect was the first to be completely wiped out.

Led by Elder Wen, there were twenty of them, all elite, yet not one remained, exterminated by Xu Hei.

As for Elder Wen's body, the skeleton turned to dust on its own.

"Xu Hei" grinned, looking at the Tianhen Sword Sect members besieging the Evil Sword Emperor.

Their faces changed, bodies tensing as if a prehistoric beast had set its sights on them, filling them with dread.

"He's heavily injured now, nothing to fear!" Qingyunzi gritted his teeth.

Xu Hei was indeed severely injured, having been besieged by the Ancient Tomb Sect, his body in tatters.

"Slash!"

Qingyunzi spat blood onto a sword-shaped leaf, which flashed brilliantly, severing one of Xu Hei's arms.

"Haha, delightful!"

Instead of showing pain, Xu Hei laughed heartily, as if enjoying it immensely.

Xu Hei raised his hand, placing it on his face.

"Careful!" Qingyunzi's companion shouted.

Too late!

Once again, strange runes appeared on Xu Hei's face, spreading across his body. He smiled slightly, "Calamity Resonance!"

"Thud, thud, thud..."

Qingyunzi's body was shredded as if by a thousand cuts, the previous sword strike repeating dozens of times, slicing him into countless pieces, even his Elemental Infant was pulverized.

Everyone's eyes widened in horror, as if witnessing a ghost.

The leader of the Tianhen Sword Sect, Qingyunzi, was effortlessly killed!

And the wounds on him were clearly inflicted by that leaf, even the sword laws were identical.

"Not enough, still not enough! Such minor pain can't satisfy me, Tu Sen!" Xu Hei roared to the sky, eyeing the sword-wielding figures in the sky.

"Come, cut me down, slice me to pieces!"

Xu Hei shouted, charging into the sword formation ahead, unguarded, crashing straight into the flying swords.
