Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Central Region, Demon Realm.

The Demon Realm and Tianyuan Realm are in a state of isolation, and the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi and Law Power are even more violent.

At the center, a palace built from Qi Cai Wei Yu floats among the clouds, surrounded by Seven-Colored Radiance; wherever the radiance reaches, Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi automatically gathers, forming spirit qi vortices, looking sacred and extraordinary.

And this is the residence of Demon God Kong Fang, the Seven-Colored Feather Palace.

Inside the great hall, Demon God Kong Fang sits enthroned, radiant spirit light flowing around his feathers, the Seven-Colored Feather Crown atop his head shining brilliantly, majestic like a crown.

His seven-colored round pupils slowly rotate, his gaze as if able to penetrate time and space, seeing through everything.

Behind him, the Seven-Colored Tail Screen—nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine tail feathers—trembles slightly; the eye-like patterns on every feather flash with golden light spots, releasing a heart-palpitating pressure that shrouds the entire great hall in a terrifying aura.

Below the great hall, two Jade Rabbits of the Jade Rabbit Clan stand with bowed bodies.

Their figures are slender, covered in snow-white fur, red eyes lowered, expressions respectful, breathing extremely lightly, showing the utmost reverence for the Demon God.

Though the Jade Rabbit Clan is not a top power in the Demon Realm, they excel at perception and investigation, possessing the most well-informed intelligence; this summons is for news of Tai Xu Lie Yuan.

After a long silence, Kong Fang slowly opens his mouth: "Black Flame Bull Demon Clan, has any news returned?"

The Jade Rabbit on the left steps forward, respectfully saying: "Replying to Demon God Sir, not long ago, our clan received a transmission from the Black Flame Bull Demon Clan."

"They captured a Guiding Spirit Light in Tai Xu Lie Yuan, and relying on this spirit light, they have already locked onto the coordinates of Tianyuan Realm."

"Oh?"

A glint flashes in Kong Fang's eyes; his seven-colored round pupils rotate, radiance around him surges violently, a corner of the tail screen behind him slightly unfolds, the eye-like patterns on thousands of tail feathers light up simultaneously, and the spirit qi in the entire great hall instantly boils: "Where does that Guiding Spirit Light originate?"

The Jade Rabbit on the right quickly adds: "Replying to Demon God Sir, that Guiding Spirit Light appeared in Tai Xu Lie Yuan, crossed Spatial Turbulence, and finally fell deep within the Ten Thousand Great Mountains of Xiyu."

"Presumably, Tianyuan Realm cultivators were active in Tai Xu Lie Yuan and then forgot to conceal it."

Kong Fang slightly nods, his fingers tapping the throne armrest; he ponders for a moment: "Ever since the last time the Yellow Spring Alliance caused trouble, making the gaps more and more numerous, our Demon Realm is now only one step away from Tianyuan Realm."

Upon hearing this, the two Jade Rabbits are extremely excited, quickly asking: "Demon God Sir, shall we seize this opportunity to tear open the seal?"

A hint of playfulness flashes in Kong Fang's eyes: "Yes, but not now."

"Since no one concealed the Guiding Spirit Light, it shows that not only we have noticed it."

"Presumably, whether cultivators of all realms in Tai Xu Lie Yuan or existences wandering in the Void, they have all set their sights on Tianyuan Realm."

"Before long, the Three Great Immortal Sects will surely beg us for help!"

The Jade Rabbit on the left hesitates, pondering: "Demon God Sir, the reincarnated Demon God Chi Ye has remained silent for so long; could he also be plotting something?"

Kong Fang smiles disdainfully: "Chi Ye has remained silent for so long; presumably he cannot amount to anything."

The two Jade Rabbits no longer speak; they deeply understand the Demon God's ambition.

As early as a thousand years ago, he wanted to break through the gap between the Demon Realm and Tianyuan Realm, but was hindered by the Three Great Immortal Sects of Tianyuan Realm and many other powers, so he has long been unable to fulfill his wish.

This exposure of Tianyuan Realm is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity.

Kong Fang continues: "Issue orders to the Fox Clan, Wolf Clan, and Snake Clan, telling them to gather the demons and wait at the edge of the gap."

The two Jade Rabbits respond in unison: "As commanded!"

They bow and retreat, retreating all the way to the gate before turning to leave.

Silence falls in the hall; Kong Fang slowly unfolds the Seven-Colored Tail Screen behind him, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine tail feathers bloom with light simultaneously, Seven-Colored Radiance soars into the sky, covering the entire Seven-Colored Feather Palace, even spreading a thousand li away.

Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi gathers wildly, Law Power pulses violently, and distant mountain ranges tremble.

"Long live the Demon God!"

"Long live the Demon God!"

"The Demon God is immortal!"

After countless demons feel this terrifying pressure, they kneel on the ground and worship.

Kong Fang stands amidst the radiance, his seven-colored pupils gazing toward Tianyuan Realm, greed flashing in his eyes: "Tianyuan Realm... it's time to change its Master!"

……

……

Deep in the Southern Region, the wind and snow are fiercer than in the Outer Perimeter.

Goose-feather snow falls like shattered jade; between heaven and earth, only dazzling white and bone-piercing cold remain.

The cold wind sweeps across the ice-sealed Huang Yuan, emitting a wailing howl, freezing even the spirit qi between heaven and earth into stagnation; Bei Qingtang, clad in a white long dress, stands proudly in the cold wind and snow.

Before her is a ruin sealed in ice for ten thousand years; the secrets within are known only to members of the Main Lineage of the Bei Clan.

Bei Qingtang, expressionless, proceeds deep into the passage.

The further in she goes, the thicker the ice layer and the lower the temperature.

Even the formidable flesh body of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator is frozen slightly stiff.

Her fingertips tremble, not from cold, but from excitement.

Passing through a collapsed ice-sealed Stone Gate, the sight deep within the ruin comes into view.

It is a ten-zhang-tall giant ice sculpture, pitch-black throughout, clearly a coiled Xuan Snake; its snake body is thick like an ancient tree, and its scale patterns are clearly visible.

Even after being ice-sealed for ten thousand years, it still emits a heart-palpitating fierce qi.

Bei Qingtang flies forward, reaches out to touch the cold snake head, feeling the bone-piercing chill from her fingertips; she hooks a smile at the corner of her mouth: "I found you, Black Water Xuan Snake."

"Grandfather poured all bloodline power into my body, causing me to undergo a transformation."

"From the thin Luo River Bloodline, I became a one percent Xuan River Bloodline."

"Now, I only need to cast the Bloodline Symbiosis Secret Law to awaken it."

Bei Cangxuan appeared ruthless, absorbing the bloodline of the entire clan, but in truth all of this was for her.

The Luo River Bei Clan, or rather the Xuanhe Clan, must be led by the Main Lineage; it cannot be handed over to a Branch Family Member.

An unfathomable light flickered in Bei Qingtang's eyes; she raised her right hand, bit through the fingertip of her index finger, and a drop of black essence blood immediately seeped out.

She pressed the black essence blood onto the ice-sealed snake head; the blood seeped into the ice layer, and wherever it passed, the ten-thousand-year-old ice actually began to melt.

Crack—

Crack—

Crack—

The sounds of shattering rose and fell in succession; as the bloodline power permeated, the Xuan Snake that had been ice-sealed for ten thousand years gradually revealed its true form.

Its entire body was pitch-black like ink, its scales gleaming with a dark purple luster, each piece palm-sized, tightly fitted against its body, exuding a texture tougher than refined iron.

The snake body was incomparably thick, requiring ten-odd people to encircle it, its trunk a hundred zhang long.

The snake head was massive; its twin eyes opened.

Initially, its pupils surged with the bewilderment of ten thousand years of dormancy, but very quickly, a pair of vertical pupils locked onto Bei Qingtang floating in front of it.

It had originally intended to attack, yet upon sensing the bloodline power of the Xuanhe Clan, it instead restrained its ferocity.

Roar—

The Black Water Xuan Snake raised its skull and let out a hissing roar; countless black waters seeped from its mouth and nose, the black water condensing the moment it hit the ground, even corroding through the ten-thousand-year ice layer.

Bei Qingtang's expression was manic: "Bloodline resonance, symbiosis as one.

Bloodline Symbiosis Secret Law, directly summon the Black Water Xuan Snake!"

Black blood seeped from her fingertip, transforming into strands of thread that seeped in along the snake scales.

The Black Water Xuan Snake did not resist; on the contrary, it actively cooperated, the two Bei Qingtangs reflected in its golden vertical pupils gradually merging into one.

The auras of one person and one snake thoroughly fused, formally establishing the Symbiotic Contract.

Bei Qingtang's aura fused with the Xuan Snake's aura; her cultivation began to climb, breaking through from Inferior Nascent Soul Early Stage to Middle Stage, the aura around her growing increasingly fierce.

A moment later, the symbiosis secret law was completed.

Bei Qingtang tapped her toe, her whole person landing atop the Black Water Xuan Snake's head, feeling the power surging within her body that far surpassed the past, she murmured: "I am unwilling to be merely an Inferior Nascent Soul!"
