Zhegu's body fell deep into the hole. He barely managed to steady himself and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
He looked around and saw countless dark currents gathering towards him.
These black energies are not ordinary energies, but rather the power of a sleeping ancestor of extraterrestrial demons!
Damn it!
Zhegu gritted his teeth.
"Who the hell is this bastard? How can he possess such power, managing to send me sprawling here with a single blow!"
Just then, a deep voice came from deep within the hole:
"Zhegu, you dare to devour my power of resurrection. Are you prepared to pay the price?"
Zhegu's body trembled violently. Forcibly suppressing the fear in his heart, he immediately knelt down:
"Lord Heavenly Serpent, I have no ulterior motives! Everything I did was to help you awaken as soon as possible. I am only borrowing this power temporarily and am willing to return it at any time!"
A massive phantom appeared deep within the hole; it was none other than the true leader of the extraterrestrial demon race—the Heavenly Serpent.
His form was ethereal and elusive, his enormous snake head exuded immense power, and his two deep red eyes coldly stared at Zhe Gu.
"Temporarily borrowed?"
The Heavenly Serpent sneered.
"It seems you've forgotten who truly rules over the extraterrestrial demons!"
The next moment, endless black energy surged towards Zhe Gu, completely enveloping him.
Zhegu let out a shrill scream as black energy churned within his body. His power was rapidly stripped away, and even his soul began to crumble.
"Lord Sky Snake! Spare your life—"
Zhegu's hoarse voice abruptly stopped, and his body was quickly assimilated into black energy, transforming into a pure energy that was injected into the celestial serpent phantom.
"Useless wretch!"
The Heavenly Serpent snorted coldly, and after absorbing the power of the Zhegu, its phantom gradually solidified.
He raised his head slightly and stared at the entrance of the hole.
"An uninvited guest has intruded, daring to disrupt my recovery process..."
Above the hole, Ye Lingtian watched the changes deep inside. He could sense that an even more terrifying aura was rapidly taking shape.
"Heavenly Serpent?"
Ye Lingtian said in a low voice, a cold smile appearing on his lips.
"They actually showed up on their own initiative!"
He did not back down, but instead stepped forward, and a seven-colored light extended from his feet, directly covering the entire hole.
As the light shone through, the darkness inside the hole began to dissipate little by little.
"Who dares to trespass into the forbidden territory of my extraterrestrial demons!"
The Heavenly Serpent's voice boomed like thunder inside the hole.
Ye Lingtian sneered.
"I am the Emperor of the Nine Heavens! Wherever I am, all evil spirits from beyond the realm shall be annihilated!"
"The Nine Heavens Emperor?"
The phantom of the celestial serpent trembled slightly, then let out a wild laugh.
"Hahaha, the legendary Nine Heavens Emperor is actually still alive! Good, very good! I'll use your blood as a sacrifice for my complete resurrection!"
Before he finished speaking, endless black energy suddenly surged out of the hole, transforming into countless snake shadows that frantically pounced on Ye Lingtian.
These snake shadows contain extremely strong corrosive power; any ordinary master at the Controller level who touches them will instantly have their soul scattered.
However, Ye Lingtian simply waved his sleeve, and a seven-colored halo erupted around him.
The halo spread out like ripples, instantly shattering the snake shadows into nothingness.
"You dare to show off your meager skills before an expert?"
Ye Lingtian said calmly, and with a wave of his hand, a seven-colored longsword condensed from the void, piercing straight at the phantom of the Heavenly Serpent.
A hint of apprehension flashed in the eyes of the Heavenly Serpent, which immediately mobilized the remaining power within the hole to form a black barrier.
However, the seven-colored longsword was invincible, easily piercing through the barrier and directly into the illusory image of the celestial serpent.
"ah-"
The Heavenly Serpent let out a painful roar, and its phantom image dimmed slightly in an instant.
"Nine Heavens Emperor! You will not stop me!"
The Heavenly Serpent roared, and its phantom began to tremble violently, as if it were about to unleash an even more terrifying power.
Ye Lingtian snorted coldly, and with a flicker of his figure, he appeared directly above the illusory image of the Heavenly Serpent.
As he raised his hand, a massive seven-colored array appeared, enveloping the celestial serpent phantom within it.
"Heaven-Sealing and Spirit-Trapping Array!"
The formation activated, and seven-colored light, like chains, entangled the illusory image of the Heavenly Serpent, continuously suppressing its power.
"Damn it! Nine Heavens Emperor, do you think you can trap me like this?"
The celestial serpent struggled frantically, its phantom expanding continuously, seemingly poised to break free at any moment.
However, Ye Lingtian's gaze remained calm.
He raised his hand and made another hand seal. The light in the array suddenly changed, transforming into a blazing pink flame.
"Burn all spirits with fire, suppress them!"
Flames swept down, completely engulfing the phantom of the celestial serpent.
The Heavenly Serpent let out a terrible roar, and its phantom rapidly collapsed in the flames.
As the illusory image of the celestial serpent dissipated, the black mist inside the hole quickly receded, leaving the hall shrouded in deathly silence.
Ye Lingtian stood still, sensing the aura left by the burning flames.
His gaze sharpened, and he suddenly noticed a stone tablet emitting a faint light deep within the hole.
"This is...."
Ye Lingtian moved swiftly and arrived in front of the stone tablet.
An ancient inscription is carved on the stone tablet.
"The Underworld and the Heavenly Court are sealed within the source of chaos!"
Ye Lingtian gently stroked the stone tablet, a thoughtful look appearing in his eyes.
"The source of chaos... It seems this is the real key!"
He looked up into the distance.
"No matter where the seal is, I will find it!"
With that, he waved his hand, and the entire hall turned to ashes in a burst of seven-colored light.
Ye Lingtian stood in the void, holding a tiny fragment he had taken from the stone tablet in his hand.
