had already walked down from the battlefield, each with a strange expression....and yet, this Wu Chao’s face still held a gentle and kind smile, not placing any importance on the astonishment of those...Su Xin really did his best.

From the moment he unleashed his divine annihilation technique to now, only a few dozen breaths have passed. He first ruthlessly slaughtered three Void-Breaking Realm experts from the Pang family. Then, he immediately stormed onto the battlefield, instantly severely injuring Pang Shaoqing. Subsequently, he forced the peak Void-Breaking Dark Cang and three Yinglong Guards to confront him.

He still gravely wounded Ancang and slew two of the three Yinglong Guards.

It can be said that in these few dozen breaths, he has done everything he could.

Plop!

Su Xin and the two deceased Yinglong Guards fell to the ground.

Su Xin had no strength left. The consequences of using the forbidden technique left him unable to even stand up.

"Two Yinglong Guards are dead"

Long Jiu, captain of the Yinglong Guard squad, saw the bodies of two Yinglong Guards lying on the ground and his face darkened.

Yinglong Guards, that is the strongest guard unit controlled by the Heavenly Flame Royal Family. The birth of every Yinglong Guard is very difficult.

The loss of two Yinglong Guards in a single encounter is a huge blow to the royal family.

"What are you still doing Kill that boy immediately!" Long Jiu growled.

An Cang also saw that Long Jiu was a little angry.

This time it was his master who spent a great deal of money and effort to get that unit of the Yinglong Guards sent over, but now two of them are dead. Even if he's afraid, it won't be easy to explain things away.

"It's this kid..." A killing intent surged in An Cang's eyes as he looked down at Su Xin who was already unable to move below.

I'm just about to get my hands on Su Xin and kill him.

It could suddenly...

Boom!!

A wave of terror, yet it suddenly erupted from the center of the battlefield.

This breath, cold, sinister, suffocating!

Within a radius of a hundred meters, space seemed to have completely solidified.

"What"

All the Yinglong Guards, who had always relied on encircling and ambushing Subaicheng, were stunned and looked up in astonishment.

Yet, he saw that Su Bai, who had been barely holding on under their onslaught, stood there with his hair and robes billowing in the wind. His eyes were cold as ice, staring at them as if a death god was observing them, and the surroundings fell completely silent.

At this moment, they could only feel their hearts pounding.

Every pore on his body stood on end.

"I'm forced to break the first seal. You all deserve to die!" Su Bai said in a cold voice.

Wow!

One step forward, a streak of light flashed across.

These Yinglong Guards, including the strongest among them, Yinglong Squad Leader Long Jiu, hadn't even had time to see Su Bai's figure clearly.

A suffocating aura of death descended, like a monstrous beast baring its fangs and jaws, ready to swallow them whole.

Boom!!

With a deafening boom, four figures were ejected in disarray. Along the way, including Long Jiu, each of the Four Azure Dragon Guards spat blood from their mouths.

As for the other three, they had already become cold corpses, drifting mercilessly.

"How is that possible"

Long Jiu was so shocked that he was beyond words.

Even if three of them were sent to deal with Su Xin, they would still have the remaining seven Yinglong Guards led by him. Displaying their battle formation, even some of the more powerful cultivators at the peak of the Void Breaking realm could be held back.

Now... with one strike, he instantly killed three of them and seriously injured four others.

"Unrivaled in the Void Realm Or the power of a Nirvana Realm warrior" Long Jiu stared at Su Bai with an expression of disbelief, then.

"Retreat!"

Long Jiu immediately issued the order to retreat.

There's no way, facing Su Baichen at this moment, if we don't leave now, I'm afraid all of us will have to pay the price here.

Can you escape

Su Bai's voice remained cold and sharp, laced with shocking killing intent, like a hellish Asura.

He stood there in the void, his steps not moving an inch, yet the spear in his hand slowly thrust forward.

This thrust was clearly aimed at empty air, but the moment the spear pierced through, whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! ~~

~~

Long Jiu, An Cang, the four surviving members of the Yinglong Guards, and even Pang Shaoqing, who had been severely injured by Su Xin at the beginning and was still sitting on the ground, all saw a figure appear out of thin air before them.

It was Su Bai's figure, and the long spear in his hand also came at the same time.

Although Mingming hadn't moved at all, an 'Su Bai Chen' appeared before each of these people simultaneously.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! ~~

The long spears pierced through bodies one after another.

Long Jiu, An Cang, Pang Shaoqing, and the four Yinglong Guards all had fear and disbelief in their eyes. They all collapsed powerlessly.

"This…"

Seeing this scene, Su Xin was deeply moved.

In an instant, all the Void Reapers in the arena died.

What kind of skill is this

And after killing all the illusory realms present, Su Bai seemed to be preparing to check on Su Xin's condition, but he stopped as soon as he took a step.

"Pff!"

A mouthful of black blood spurted directly from Su Bai's mouth, and his face twisted completely.

A myriad of black, eerie patterns, like a spiderweb, spread from his heart outward, instantly engulfing his entire body. Even his face was covered in these sinister markings, making him look ferocious and terrifying.

But his figure was now hunched, his eyes bloodshot, and he kept screaming from within, a scream that seemed to rend his very soul, yet produced not a single sound.

What's most terrifying is that Su Bai was desperately clutching at himself with both hands, even his facial flesh was bleeding.

This unbearable pain made him feel that ripping his flesh would be more bearable.

"Father!!"

Although Su Xin was lying there, he still saw the wild, ferocious yet helpless look on his father's face at this moment. His eyes were bloodshot, but he had no way to do anything about it.

Suddenly, Su Xin's head spun wildly, and a wave of dizziness overcame him. The overwhelming weakness finally pulled his consciousness into darkness.

……

When Su Xin woke up, it was already daytime on the second day.

"Father!"

Su Xin opened his eyes and saw that he was in his room, with the maid Hong Shan attending to him.

"Master, you are awake,"

Hongshan's face was filled with surprise, and she even helped Su Xin get up.

As soon as he stood up, Su Xin realized that his body was completely empty, devoid of any spiritual energy. He could barely feel any strength throughout his entire being.

The entire person was weak to the extreme.

The side effects of using forbidden arts were much greater than I had imagined, Su Xin thought inwardly.

Divine extermination technique, he had used it once before.

That was in order to kill Zhao Tianlei.

That time, the process of him killing Zhao Tianlei was relatively smooth and didn't take too long. After killing Zhao Tianlei, he immediately stopped his secret art, so he could still retain some strength and move normally.

This time, he truly and thoroughly used forbidden techniques to the extreme, pushing himself to his absolute limit until his body could no longer withstand it and he was utterly exhausted.

The side effects of these two are, naturally, different.

Su Xin estimated that his current body wouldn't last a few days and couldn't be recovered.

"Red Robe, how is the family doing now" Su Xin asked.

"Rest assured, sir. Although the thieves from the Pang family arrived rather suddenly last night, fortunately my Su family reacted quickly as well. Under the leadership of several elders, we gradually withstood the Pang family's onslaught and even managed to counterattack. Before dawn, the thieves from the Pang family had been repelled to the Crimson Robe Path."

"Where's my father" Su Xin asked again.

"The head of the household seems to have been injured. After repelling the thieves from the Pang family, he returned to his residence and has not come out of Hongshan Dao since."

"Hongshan, help me up," Su Xindao said.

Hongshan immediately helped Su Xin to his feet and walked towards the door.

Just stepped out of the room.

"Young Master!"

Outside the door, several guards immediately bowed in greeting.

These guards are very strong, even Ye Luo is among them.

It's clear that after last night's battle, the Su family was also worried whether the Pang family had any other tricks up their sleeve. With Su Xin in a coma, they naturally sent some strong fighters to protect his safety.

"Hongshan, help me go to Father. Su Xin instructed,"

Hong Shan helped Su Xin to the courtyard where Su Bai Chen lived.

There are also some guards guarding the front of the study.

I want to meet my father Su Xin directly.

"Young Master, the head of the household has ordered that no one is to disturb him." However, the guards led by him stopped Su Xin.

Let him come in.

In the study, Su Bai's voice suddenly rang out.

The guards no longer blocked him. Su Xin, alone, leaned on the door frame and entered the study.

After the door closed, this study remained as dim as ever.

A solitary figure sat dejectedly at a desk, the candlelight beside him flickering softly, obscuring his features.

Father Su Xin spoke softly.

Su Bai's head tilted slightly upward, and only then did Su Xin see his father's current expression.

...Su Bai's once handsome and elegant features were now yellowed and withered. His entire face had sunk in, becoming extremely thin. His hair was also very messy, even some parts turning gray....

The whole person seemed to have aged decades all at once.

"Father, what is this..." Su Xin was taken aback and was about to step forward.

"

Stop!

"

Su Bai sank his voice to a low growl, "Don't come any closer, just stay there."

Su Xin stopped her steps, but inside she was anxious like a fire.

He remembered that before he lost consciousness last night, he saw his father suffering like never before, and now when he sees his father again, he is like this.

What happened in the middle

"Xin'er, I ask you, last night, why did your cultivation level rise from the early stage of Huahai to the threshold of Po Xu Realm Did you use some kind of special secret art" Su Bai's eyes became somewhat turbid as he looked at Su Xin.

Su Xin nodded.

"You have always cultivated within the family and rarely interacted with the outside world. Logically, you shouldn't have had the chance to obtain this secret art, unless... it's due to your bloodline." Su Bai said.

"Su Xin nodded again."

“It seems your bloodline is indeed extraordinary,” Su Bai looked at Su Xin deeply. “In this world, bloodlines, third-rank and second-rank are only considered common. First-rank bloodlines, when cultivation reaches a certain level, have the hope of awakening innate divine abilities, which is quite remarkable.”

And you... just awakening your bloodline, you can obtain a secret art that can greatly increase your cultivation level in a short time. This bloodline is probably a divine bloodline above the first rank.

Su Xin was silent and did not answer.

In the study, there was a moment of silence.

"Listen to me, from now on, unless you are facing a true crisis where you must do whatever it takes to survive, you absolutely cannot use that secret art in front of anyone."

"It was Su Xinxian who understood."

He also knew that his father, seeing him cast this secret technique, could guess based on his past experience that this technique was related to bloodline. Therefore, he would deduce that his bloodline was at least a divine-grade bloodline, and others could come to the same conclusion.

So from the very beginning, Su Xin treated this divine annihilation technique as his ultimate trump card.

And this card, the side effects are also extremely large.

Su Xin wasn't planning on using this trump card unless it was a matter of life and death.

"Father, last night..." Su Xin opened his mouth, just wanting to ask.

Su Bai sank had already waved his hand to interrupt him, "I know what you want to ask, don't ask, if you ask, I won't tell you!"

"Your current strength is still too weak!"

"Relying on that secret technique, you possess the combat strength of a Void Realm expert. Without it, in the Sea Transformation Realm, you wouldn't even be considered the strongest. Now, you simply don't have the qualifications to know these things.

"

"However, your talent is extraordinary, and you possess an unimaginable bloodline. Your potential surpasses that of your father by far. Moreover, you will soon be able to enter the Tianyan Palace for cultivation, and your progress will be rapid. When your strength is sufficient, your father will naturally tell you everything!"

"Father, I don't know what you mean by enough strength. What level do we need to reach" Su Xin couldn't help but ask.

"When you have the power to crush the entire Si family under your feet, only then will you be qualified to know all this," Su Bai said.

"To single-handedly crush the entire Situ family underfoot" Su Xin was astonished.

The Si family, but there are ancestors at the Nirvana Realm

"Understood. Su Xin's eyes regained their firmness."

"Go on, Su Bai. He waved his hand."

Su Xin immediately walked out of the study.

"Divine Bloodline"

"Could a divine bloodline be granted such heaven-defying secret arts"

Su Bai sank into thought, but suddenly his gaunt face contorted in pain once more.

He hurriedly pulled out several pills from his sleeve and swallowed them all in one breath. The pained expression on his face finally eased slightly.

"Violet eyes!!"

"Violet eyes!!"

Su Bai roared from his mouth, his eyes filled with unprecedented madness and hatred.
