Chapter 465: Refining the Demon Saint Essence Blood

Deep within the Underground Serene Snake Network.

In the forbidden grounds of the altar, the three-hundred-meter stone tablet suddenly burst forth with a brilliant light.

Within this light, a soul silhouette shot out swiftly. Finally, under the astonished gaze of Yao Ming, it merged into the figure seated on the stone platform.

Before Xiao Ming could even open his eyes, atop the stone tablet, aside from a fingerprint and a handprint, another imprint in the shape of a mouth emerged, slowly wriggling and taking form.

"Yellow Spring Divine Anger! He succeeded!"

Staring at the mouth-shaped imprint, Yao Ming was first taken aback, and then an ecstatic expression surfaced on his face. He hurriedly sat cross-legged, and his soul power rapidly spread out.

However, just as his soul power spread into the mouth-shaped imprint and before he could absorb the various pieces of information contained within, an extremely powerful soul impact ruthlessly collided with his soul.

"Spurt!"

This brutal impact caused Yao Ming to spurt out a mouthful of blood. His body was sent flying, and he landed in a miserable state at the bottom of the towering steps.

After a moment, looking disheveled and with a somewhat pale complexion, he flew back up. Under Xiao Ming's strange gaze, he landed beside him.

"What a frightening soul impact. It seems that I have yet to meet the conditions for cultivating the Yellow Spring Divine Anger..."

In response to Xiao Ming's strange gaze, Yao Ming forced a wry smile, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and sighed regretfully.

"This Huang Quan stone tablet is quite strange. Even though the remnant soul of Demon Saint Huang Quan has dissipated, it can still possess such power. Indeed, the abilities of the Demon Saint back then were unparalleled..." Xiao Ming comforted.

"But you don't need to rush either. The cultivation method of the Yellow Spring Divine Anger has already been inscribed on the stone tablet. When you meet the requirements in the future, you'll be able to cultivate it."

"I am currently an advanced two-star Dou Saint. If I can't cultivate it with this level of strength, it seems I'll have to wait for an eternity to meet the conditions. It appears that my affinity with the Yellow Spring Divine Anger is indeed lacking."

Yao Ming sighed and had somewhat abandoned his hopes. The soul power of a magical beast was really difficult to increase. But soon, he shifted his eager gaze towards Xiao Ming, rubbed his hands together, and gave a dry laugh.

"Alliance Leader, since you've successfully defeated the remnant soul within the stone tablet, then you must have obtained the essence blood of the Demon Saint, right?"

Yao Ming waved his hand and didn't linger. His body moved as he flew toward the underground network. Xiao Ming was close behind, keeping a steady pace.

...

Upon returning to the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe, Yao Ming immediately started making preparations with great urgency.

He wanted to make significant changes now that he had reclaimed his position as the tribal chief. Although such tasks were difficult, given his character and strength, he should be able to complete them flawlessly.

While Yao Ming was busy with his preparations, Xiao Ming rested for a day to replenish his spent soul strength. On the second day, he began to make arrangements for his breakthrough.

In a tranquil room filled with the fragrance of sandalwood, Xiao Ming sat cross-legged on a stone bed. He extended his palm, and the golden liquid hovered above it, emitting a mysterious fluctuation.

As the drop of blood appeared, the surrounding energy of heaven and earth surged restlessly. Xiao Ming could clearly sense that within a hundred meters around him, all energies seemed to instinctively withdraw.

"It truly deserves to be called Demon Saint essence blood, to possess such an overbearing aura..."

Seeing this, he couldn't help but smile. This was the first time he had encountered such domineering energy. Even the essence blood of Hall of Souls' First Tianzun was far inferior.

"Let's start refining..."

As he spoke, Xiao Ming opened his mouth and swallowed the Demon Saint essence blood. Instantly, a terrifying energy burst forth, like a tumultuous sea, releasing torrents of pure energy that rampaged through his body.

In an instant, his expression turned solemn. He formed hand seals, guarded his mind, and swiftly entered a state of cultivation, restraining the wild energy.

Invisible flames surged forth, interweaving into a web within the blink of an eye, guarding crucial meridians within his body. This prevented the rampant surge of energy from becoming a burden.

His Falling Heart Flame absorbed portions of the energy repeatedly, tempering the violent factors within, extracting the pure energy, and only then allowing it to flow into his limbs and bones.

Xiao Ming resembled a sponge greedily absorbing this pure energy, which contained incredibly mystical effects.

The Demon Saint essence blood was extremely powerful. He used up two-fifths of the remaining essence blood this time. The energy contained within it alone was enough to burst a nine-star Dou Venerate, and only a Half-Saint could barely endure it.

However, Xiao Ming was a two-star Dou Saint, and his body was stronger than that of a same-stage magical beast. He wasn't afraid of the Demon Saint essence blood. Surrounded by a faint mist, he absorbed the blood's energy in an orderly manner.
