"Hah, Daughter of Darkness, these ten billion humans died because of you. Since you dare to come to my Blood Nether Star, you will not escape today." Blood Nether True Immortal was decisive. After a single exchange, he knew he was no match for this Daughter of Darkness. Without hesitation, he activated the formation and merged the blood essence of these over ten billion humans into it to enhance its power.
"You will die today!" Luo Xiaoxiao, holding a Supreme Treasure, merged into the darkness, evading the Soul Power's detection, and approached Blood Nether True Immortal.
"I have already released the news, and powerful cultivators will arrive soon. You are the one who will die today." Blood Nether True Immortal attempted to disrupt Luo Xiaoxiao's state of mind with his words, while simultaneously releasing his domain, constantly guarding against Luo Xiaoxiao's sneak attacks.
Cultivators who practice the path of darkness are natural assassins. Blood Nether True Immortal's true body was not yet perfect and could not withstand the attack of the Supreme Treasure.
A sword light suddenly appeared three feet from Blood Nether True Immortal, slashing towards him. At such close range, even with his constant vigilance, Blood Nether True Immortal could not block it. His entire body was directly cut into two halves.
After his body rejoined, Blood Nether True Immortal's face turned paler, and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes. A single sword strike had cost him nearly twenty percent of his vitality. If this continued, he would be killed in just five more strikes.
After achieving her strike, Luo Xiaoxiao once again merged into the darkness. An anxious voice echoed in her mind, the voice of the Grand Unity Artifact Spirit, "I sense cultivators at the Void Returning stage are approaching, you must leave immediately."
Luo Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat. Seeing the withered corpses of the ten billion humans in the distance, she gritted her teeth and attacked Blood Nether True Immortal again.
"Boundless Sword Light!" Luo Xiaoxiao unleashed her strongest sword strike. Blood Nether True Immortal was hit again. As his body rapidly retreated, Luo Xiaoxiao threw out a pagoda, suppressing him.
"Grand Unity Hall!"
Terror flashed in Blood Nether True Immortal's eyes. He suddenly understood everything. It turned out this Daughter of Darkness was the successor of the lord of the Grand Unity Star Domain, who had already fallen. No wonder she was targeting the Jue Hai Star Domain so fiercely.
"If you kill me, you won't be able to escape either!" In the instant before being suppressed into the Grand Unity Hall, Blood Nether True Immortal felt numerous powerful auras appearing in the space outside Blood Nether Star. He stared intently at Luo Xiaoxiao, gritting his teeth.
"Hurry, leave!"
With a wave of her hands, Luo Xiaoxiao put away the Grand Unity Hall and prepared to merge into the darkness. However, she felt the cosmic space being sealed and the rules of the Great Dao being restrained. Only the rules of countless soul spirits permeated, making her unable to move.
"It's an expert at the Great Dao realm." The Grand Unity Artifact Spirit's anxious voice sounded in Luo Xiaoxiao's mind.
Figures descended from space, led by the Soul Nether Golden Immortal, followed by a group of Nascent Soul stage cultivators. They all looked at the immobilized Luo Xiaoxiao with curiosity. It was their first time seeing the legendary Daughter of Darkness, and they hadn't expected her to be such a young and beautiful woman. Her cool and ethereal aura made some Nascent Soul stage cultivators harbor thoughts.
"So, the Daughter of Darkness is the successor of the Grand Unity Lord. No wonder she is targeting my Jue Hai Star Domain so fiercely. That old fellow Grand Unity still doesn't let anyone rest, even after death." The moment Soul Nether Golden Immortal saw the Grand Unity Hall, he guessed Luo Xiaoxiao's identity and a flicker of surprise appeared in his eyes.
The Grand Unity Hall was a Supreme Treasure of the Great Dao peak. Even he had never possessed such a treasure. To think that a mere Nascent Soul stage cultivator would unexpectedly obtain it.
Luo Xiaoxiao looked at the approaching figures, but her mind was racing. If she used that Immortal King Dao Talisman, could she instantly kill a peak Great Dao realm expert? If she couldn't completely annihilate him, she would truly be doomed today.
Luo Xiaoxiao dared to assassinate within the Jue Hai Star Domain precisely because she had confidence. She had once infiltrated an Immortal King's cave dwelling and obtained an Immortal King Dao Talisman. Using the Immortal King Dao Talisman could unleash a full-power strike comparable to that of an Eternal stage expert.
However, she had no concept of this and was unsure if it could completely obliterate a peak Great Dao realm expert. Even if the opponent was on their last breath, she, a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, would not be able to resist them.
Just as Luo Xiaoxiao was contemplating, Soul Nether Golden Immortal reached out and grabbed at her.
"Roar!"
A dragon's roar echoed. The familiar sound brought joy to Luo Xiaoxiao's heart. She looked up and saw familiar figures standing on a blood dragon in the starry sky. The blood dragon coiled in the void, its powerful dragon pressure shaking the blood and qi of the Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
At the same time, Luo Xiaoxiao felt the spatial power that had been restraining her disappear. She turned into a stream of light and quickly flew into the void above.
"Xiaoxiao pays respects to Master!" Luo Xiaoxiao knelt before Zhang Fan, her heart filled with gratitude.
"Not bad. Without my guidance, you were still able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage in just a hundred years. The gift I prepared for you is also timely." Zhang Fan took out a dark primordial crystal, over ten feet long and wide, which he had obtained in the Dark Forest. It was a supreme treasure for cultivators of the dark path to cultivate their true bodies.
"Such a large dark primordial crystal?" Luo Xiaoxiao's eyes were filled with shock. She cultivated the dark path and naturally knew the preciousness of dark primordial crystals. She had spent a huge amount of spirit crystals on a star domain to buy one, but it was only the size of her fist, and insignificant compared to the one her master had produced.
"And this too." Zhang Fan took out a black spirit flower, immediately causing Luo Xiaoxiao to exclaim, "Dark Dao Infant Flower!"
For cultivators of the dark path, this was a supreme treasure for condensing the source of the Dao.
"Alright, take them quickly."
Luo Xiaoxiao's eyes turned slightly red. The only person who could be so selfless in her regard was likely her master.
"Let me introduce you, this is my Dao companion, Qin Luoshui." Luo Xiaoxiao, her eyes full of curiosity, looked at this woman with an ethereal aura like a fairy and bowed again.
"These are my parents." Zhang Fan introduced them to Luo Xiaoxiao one by one.
Soul Nether True Immortal and the group of Nascent Soul stage cultivators looked at the group of cultivators in the sky, their eyes filled with astonishment. Their mount alone was a blood dragon with pure blood, whose strength was not inferior to his own. And the cultivators on the mount were even more terrifying, filling Soul Nether True Immortal with dread. Did this Daughter of Darkness have such a background?
Just as he was preparing to lead his men to retreat, Zhang Fan's voice suddenly echoed in his ear, "Take me to see Jue Hai Golden Immortal!"
Hearing this voice, Soul Nether True Immortal's body turned cold, and he was unable to muster any thought of resistance.
After Soul Nether True Immortal indicated the direction, Zhang Fan enveloped everyone with his pháp lực and with a single thought, they appeared in the main star of the Jue Hai Star Domain, in the hall of the Domain Lord's mansion. This method left Soul Nether True Immortal in awe, yet filled with despair.
