Chaos God's Nest

Although the water in the lower reaches of the Jinling River was very turbulent, it did not affect Yan Xiaohuang's pursuit of the river monster's breath. The man and the monster chased each other in the river for three days before Yan Xiaohuang felt that the speed of the river monster had slowed down a lot.

Yan Xiaohuang did not dare to be careless about this. He knew the principle of not pursuing a desperate enemy. With the opponent's strength, his spiritual power should not be exhausted so quickly. He thought that there might be some kind of conspiracy.

Then, the river monster suddenly turned around, and then stared at Yan Xiaohuang with a pair of blood-red eyes, roaring in human language: "Human cultivator! Why are you chasing after me?"

It was at this moment that Yan Xiaohuang finally saw the other party's appearance clearly. It was actually a monster that looked like a catfish, with a bloody mouth and eight long whiskers on the upper and lower parts. However, it was extremely large, like a small whale, and its body was covered with layers of emerald green scales, which appeared particularly translucent under the sunlight shining into the river.

"You wantonly slaughtered my human beings, and now you dare to ask me why I am chasing you?" Yan Xiaohuang replied with a sneer, releasing a cold murderous intent from his body and sweeping towards the other party.

On the other side, after sensing the murderous intent emanating from Yan Xiaohuang, the river monster also became furious. It let out a strange cry and swam towards Yan Xiaohuang fiercely.

It was extremely fast. It was very far away from Yan Xiaohuang just now, but in just a blink of an eye, it had already rushed to Yan Xiaohuang.

As if it knew in its heart that Yan Xiaohuang’s strength was far superior to its own, the river monster also tried its best.

First, a strange green light burst out from its body, and then pieces of green scales on its body fell off one after another, turning into green divine rays of light, in the shape of knives, from small to large, slashing towards Yan Xiaohuang rapidly.

At the same time, it suddenly opened its bloody mouth, like an abyss swallowing everything, and burst out with a terrifying suction force, sweeping towards Yan Xiaohuang.

Yan Xiaohuang sneered at this. If he had been faced with this kind of fighting power before, he would have needed to be cautious, but now, he was no longer the same as before, and his strength had leapt many levels compared to before, so he didn't need to use his full strength and could suppress it in an instant.

"Suppress me!"

Yan Xiaohuang said softly, and then slowly stretched out his right hand. The next moment, a golden hand quickly appeared from above the river, between heaven and earth, and then went straight down, grabbing the body of the river monster! As for the green blades that were slashing towards him, he ignored them all and let them continue to fall on his body, making a crisp sound that never stopped.

"A human cultivator in the Burning Martial Realm!!"

Sensing this horrifying aura, the river monster's eyes immediately showed fear, and then it turned around and tried to escape without saying a word, but it was too late, and was grabbed by Yan Xiaohuang with his huge golden hand.

Accompanied by a loud splash, the huge fish body of the river monster was fished out of the river by Yan Xiaohuang, and then thrown directly onto the shore.

"You only think of escaping now. I don't know whether I should praise you for being smart or stupid!" Yan Xiaohuang said with a smile.

"Master, please spare my life! I will never dare to do it again! I hope you will spare my life!" At this moment, the river monster was completely scared. In panic, he spoke in human language and begged for mercy from Yan Xiaohuang.

"Hmph! Are you scared now? What were you doing before? You killed so many lives of my human race for no reason. You should have expected that this day would come!" Yan Xiaohuang sneered and said to the river monster.

"Please spare my life, sir! I have my own reasons for attacking the residents of Sanhe Town! I hope you will spare me!" The river monster begged for mercy again.

"Oh? Difficulties?"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was also amused, and then said: "This is the first time I've heard that there are reasons for killing people! Tell me, what are the reasons?"

“This…this.”

Hearing this, the river monster immediately showed an awkward expression, as if he was extremely reluctant to reveal the truth. However, seeing the increasingly cold murderous intent in Yan Xiaohuang's eyes, his heart twitched violently, and then he trembled and said: "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I was originally an ordinary fish monster in the Biyue Lake upstream of the Jinling River. Although my cultivation is not very high, I live very comfortably. Since then, I have never done anything harmful to the world! It was three years ago that I accidentally picked up a red gem at the bottom of the Biyue Lake. It revealed a mysterious aura. I was attracted by it, so I brought it back to my nest. Who would have thought that the gem contained the soul of a powerful demon clan, and he also claimed to be the Blood Dragon Immortal from the upper realm, who could help me reach the extreme realm and then become the body of the demon emperor! In this regard, I couldn't resist his constant temptation, so I finally listened to him and practiced the Blood Dragon Heavenly Demon Method!"

"Blood Dragon Heavenly Demon Technique?"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang also frowned. After all, the name of this technique did not sound like a good thing. It might be some extremely evil method of cultivation.

"Yes! It is the Blood Dragon Heavenly Demon Method! According to what the Blood Dragon Immortal said, this method of cultivation has nine levels. Each level requires devouring a corresponding number of living beings and converting their life essence into the required energy to nourish the body. When the ninth level is perfected, one can cultivate into the body of the legendary Demon Emperor!" said the river demon.

"Oh? Is that so? Then what level of cultivation have you reached now?" Yan Xiaohuang asked.

"To be honest with you, sir, from three years ago till now, I have already cultivated to the fourth level!" the river monster replied in a trembling voice.

"How many lives have you devoured in the past three years?" Yan Xiaohuang asked again.

"This... I can't even count them all, I just remember there were about a thousand people!"

"What? More than a thousand people?" Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was furious, and immediately looked at the river monster coldly, "In the past three years, you have devoured more than a thousand people? Do you know that the martial arts you practiced is an unparalleled evil martial arts? Even if you succeed in the end, you will still bear unimaginable sins?"

Seeing this, the river monster also hurriedly begged for mercy again, saying: "Master, please spare my life! I only realized that this skill is evil after I devoured a person, but the arrow has been shot and there is no turning back. I also want to stop practicing, but this skill is too evil. Once you practice it, you can never stop. Otherwise, you will be attacked and eventually die!"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was so angry that he laughed. He wanted to give the other party a chance, but he never thought that the other party still didn't wake up until now.

"Because you were greedy for life and afraid of death, you killed so many innocent mortal spirits in vain! As I said, if you really had no evil thoughts in your heart, you could have directed your spearhead at those evil practitioners. But not only did you not do that, you even intensified it! What about those people who were killed for no reason by you in the past three years?" Yan Xiaohuang said with a sneer.

"Ah this..."

The river monster was completely panicked. From Yan Xiaohuang's tone and his unconcealed eyes, it felt a chilling murderous intent that pierced its body.

"Sir! Sir, please don't kill me...I..."

The river monster was about to beg for mercy again, but before he could finish his words, Yan Xiaohuang suddenly slapped him with his palm, killing him completely.

People can be divided into good and bad people, and monsters can also be divided into good monsters and evil monsters. It is obvious that this river monster itself is not a good thing. If Yan Xiaohuang leaves it today, I am afraid that it will do something even more evil in the future.

If the river monster had known in advance what would happen to it today, it would not have been so obsessed as to bring the red bead back to its nest when it picked it up three years ago.

boom!

As the river monster's body and soul were shattered by Yan Xiaohuang's palm, a blood-red bead rolled out from its body and then slid directly to Yan Xiaohuang's feet. It seemed that this should be the round bead that the river monster mentioned contained a wisp of the Blood Dragon Immortal's soul.

In response, Yan Xiaohuang sneered, then bent down to pick up the blood-colored round bead and placed it in his hand.

Sure enough, the next moment, an old and seductive voice was heard from inside.

"Little kid! I see that you have amazing bones and are born with the appearance of an emperor. Do you want to reach the other side and become an immortal emperor? I can help you realize this wish!"

"Realize you!"

Yan Xiaohuang cursed angrily, then threw the bead to the ground and stomped on it twice, but it did not cause any substantial damage to it.

"Hey! Little kid, why do you have such a hot temper? You get so angry when you disagree with something. You must be so impatient and have done something wrong in your cultivation that you have gone astray!" The old voice laughed when he saw this.

Judging from his tone, he looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, and he did not take Yan Xiaohuang seriously at all.

"Hmph! Stop playing tricks on me, old man. Do you think I'm that stupid fish? How could I be deceived by you?" In response to this, Yan Xiaohuang snorted coldly.

At that moment, he looked down at his collar and called out, "Xiaolong! Come out, I'll give you a big treasure!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a little dragon suddenly popped out its shiny black head from inside Yan Xiaohuang's collar, and then its pair of dragon eyes kept blinking as it looked at Yan Xiaohuang.

Yan Xiaohuang smiled, then pointed to the ground and said, "Look! What is this?"

Upon hearing this, Xiaolong immediately looked at the ground in the direction of Yan Xiaohuang's finger. After discovering the blood-red round bead, his eyes suddenly lit up with excitement.

It seems that he likes this kind of treasures with hard texture. I still remember that last time in the secret room of Lei Jie Tianzun, Xiaolong also held a hard stone and kept biting it. I think these things must be of unimaginable use to him.

At that moment, the little dragon flew out with a whoosh, and then rushed straight to the blood-red round bead on the ground, hugged it and started biting it.

"Ah! How is it possible! This...this...is actually a real dragon!"

After seeing Xiaolong, the remnant soul of the old man in the round bead was suddenly frightened, and then spoke in extreme horror.

Seeing the other party like this, Yan Xiaohuang smiled contentedly. After all, this old guy just looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, but now he was so panicked.

"You! Who are you? How come there is a real dragon by your side?" At this moment, the Blood Dragon Immortal looked at Yan Xiaohuang in horror and asked.

"Don't worry about who I am! From today onwards, you won't know who you are!" Yan Xiaohuang replied with a smile.

"Young man, please spare me! Young man, please spare me! I will never dare to do it again! Please keep this dragon away from me!" At this moment, the Blood Dragon Immortal had long lost his previous arrogance. Instead, his face was full of fear, and he kept begging for mercy from Yan Xiaohuang.

"Eh? Old man, weren't you not afraid at all just now? Why are you begging for mercy from me now?"

"All the mistakes are my fault. I was unable to recognize a great man. Young hero, please spare my life! Let this real dragon go away quickly! Otherwise, I will probably die soon!" The Blood Dragon Immortal cried and begged for mercy.

It's no wonder that he was so frightened. After all, the oppressive feeling of the True Dragon Clan has been well-known since ancient times. Not to mention the immortal materials and precious materials, even the natal magic weapons of some top-level strong men would hardly survive in their mouths. It seems that most of the ancient True Dragon Clan used spiritual stones and precious materials as food.

"Little dragon!"

At this moment, seeing that the other party had been scared like this, Yan Xiaohuang hurriedly waved his hand, signaling Xiaolong to let go.

Looking at the little dragon, it can be seen that it is actually reluctant to let go of the red bead in its arms, but when it sees Yan Xiaohuang ordering it to let go, it still flies back obediently and then lands on Yan Xiaohuang's shoulder. However, in its big dragon eyes, it is still full of desire for the red bead.

Seeing that the little dragon really flew back obediently, Yan Xiaohuang was very happy. He then took out many precious stones from his storage ring and sent them to it, as a reward for its obedience.

Then, Yan Xiaohuang bent down and picked up the red bead again, and then said to it: "Okay, old man, now, can you tell me your origins?"

At this moment, due to Yan Xiaohuang, no! To be more precise, it was Xiaolong's tyranny, the Blood Dragon Immortal Venerable's soul also sighed, and then he slowly said: "You also heard what the river monster said just now. I did not lie to him. My name is indeed Blood Dragon Immortal Venerable, and I come from the upper realm!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was also surprised. Judging from the tone and attitude of the old man, he was obviously not deceiving him. He was indeed a being from the upper realm.

"Hey! This is a long story! I was originally an elder of the Blood God Sect in the upper realm. My strength is not unparalleled, but it is also the best in the area! It was because a few years ago, I accepted a traitorous disciple. He practiced a technique I created without asking for permission. Later, I found out and punished him. Speaking of it, this was just a small matter. The reason why I didn't let him practice that technique was because it was not yet perfect. Who would have thought that the traitor would hate me because of this matter, so he took the opportunity to sneak attack me when I was practicing and killed me! Fortunately, I once practiced a secret technique that could possess the residual soul in a certain spiritual treasure, so I was lucky enough to escape and came to this lower realm!"
