Serpent Ancestor

Xu Hei felt dizzy and his body tingled, taking a long time to catch his breath.

"What a powerful burden. What kind of Demonic Beast's wings are these, to possess such might!" Xu Hei was secretly astonished.

It wasn't just the lightning and water pressure; there was also a powerful bloodline suppression, as if it originated from some ancient beast.

No wonder it was left to gather dust in the treasury; hardly anyone could withstand it.

Bo Xi said, "According to the former clan leader's speculation, the material used for these Water Thunder Wings comes from the fins of an ancient fierce beast, carrying an inherent bloodline pressure. No one in our Dolphin Clan can bear it. If it doesn't work out, young friend, you can choose another Magical Treasure."

"No!" Xu Hei shook his head firmly, "I'll take this one!"

With a complete dragon bone, he had no fear of any bloodline suppression. As long as his Physical Body was strong enough, he could fully withstand it.

The reason he could only maintain it for a dozen breaths now was purely because he wasn't strong enough yet; he needed to temper his Physical Body more.

Once he consumed the eel's corpse and secluded himself for a while, he'd be able to endure longer.

"Good! If the Water Thunder Wings can realize their true value on you, it would be a worthy use of them," Bo Xi sighed.

Xu Hei glanced at the other treasures, most of which were of lower grade and didn't catch his eye, far inferior to the Water Thunder Wings, so he left the place directly.

Xu Hei retraced his steps back to the Dolphin Palace.

Suddenly, he heard an urgent cry, which was Bonan's voice.

"Bonan?"

He exchanged a glance with Bo Xi and immediately headed to where Bonan was in seclusion.

At this moment, Bonan was suspended in mid-air, staring at a spot on his body, mouth agape, his face changing drastically.

On his abdomen, two marks had risen, vaguely forming the shape of feet, as if they were about to grow out.

"What... what is this?!"

Bonan stared at the feet about to grow from his abdomen, his eyes bulging as if he'd seen a ghost.

Bo Xi was also dumbfounded.

Xu Hei felt a buzzing in his mind and quickly asked, "Did you take a Pill?"

Bonan nodded, "Yes, I took a healing Pill. It worked great; all my old injuries healed. But this..."

He was already incoherent.

Xu Hei had warned that Pills have side effects and shouldn't be taken recklessly. He had been very restrained, only taking a healing Pill.

It was just a healing Pill, and he had checked it beforehand; the medicinal power was very mild, so it should have been fine!

But he hadn't expected such a side effect to occur.

"Xu Hei, what should I do? Think of something!" Bonan was anxious.

Xu Hei immediately realized that this healing Pill was the Blood Spirit Pill, capable of healing any injury, regenerating flesh and bones, even restoring lost limbs! ṙΆΝꝊ฿ΕȘ

It was the highest-grade healing medicine refined by Xu Bai! It could regenerate severed limbs.

But the only problem was—

The Blood Spirit Pill was designed for land creatures, not considering marine life.

If a marine creature lost a limb, it would grow back too!

Just as Xu Hei was pondering, Bonan's body changed again. Below his fins, handprints seemed to appear, as if arms were about to grow!

"Ah!!" Bonan screamed in fright.

Xu Hei's face darkened, and he quickly said, "Calm down, and use all your strength to expel the Pill's power from your body."

"Okay!"

Bonan calmed his mind, his Demon Infant operating at full speed, opening his mouth as wisps of red mist flew out.

Xu Hei could feel that the red mist was the aura of the Blood Spirit Pill.

As the red mist drifted out, the footprints on Bonan's abdomen slowly retracted, and the handprints below his fins gradually disappeared.

Bo Xi watched in shock, dumbfounded.

This process lasted for two full hours before it finally ended.

Bonan was exhausted, collapsing to the ground.

"Phew! Finally saved!" Bonan gasped.

Xu Hei's mouth twitched.

Xu Bai's Pills really shouldn't be taken lightly; one mistake could lead to problems. Fortunately, this was a Demon Infant Stage expert. If it were a Core Formation Stage cultivator, without the strength to expel the Pill, the outcome...

Xu Hei shuddered, thankful that he hadn't given out many Pills, with only one healing Pill.

"I'll stay with the Dolphin Clan for a few days until you take the Detoxification Pill before leaving."

Xu Hei was worried about more problems arising, so he decided to help to the end.

"That would be great, thank you, young friend," Bonan expressed his gratitude.

…………

In the following three days, Xu Hei stayed with the Dolphin Clan.

During these three days, Bo Xi hosted a banquet every day, bringing out the Dolphin Clan's treasured wine, Fishman Drunk.

However, Xu Hei didn't touch a drop.

Because he recalled some unpleasant memories, he would never drink alcohol.

Instead, he spent time studying the Water Thunder Wings.

After consuming the Dolphin Clan's food, Xu Hei's Physical Body strength also progressed rapidly.

"Go!"

With a thought, the Water Thunder Wings shot out, transforming into two sharp swords, like a thunderous vortex, slicing a patch of coral into powder before returning to rest at Xu Hei's sides.

"One water, one thunder, quite powerful, but the burden on the Physical Body is too great. It requires constant endurance of water pressure and lightning erosion. I'll need a stronger Physical Body to master it perfectly."

Xu Hei put away the Water Thunder Wings, contemplating.

Then, he took out a set of nine blood-colored flying swords.

This was Zhou Qing's blood-killing sword formation!

Each one was a third-tier high-grade Magical Treasure, and combined, the nine reached the peak of the third tier.

With Xu Hei's current cultivation, he still couldn't master it perfectly; he could only control three at most.

"Whether it's the Water Thunder Wings or the blood-killing sword formation, they're both too challenging for me. And the ivory flying sword is too weak..."

Xu Hei pondered briefly and took out a half-finished sword embryo.

This was a flying sword he had personally refined.

Although Xu Hei primarily focused on cultivating his Physical Body, he couldn't neglect the art of flying sword combat, especially since he planned to visit a human island where flying swords were essential for communication.

"Xu Hei, Bonan is ready," Bo Xi came over and said to Xu Hei.

Xu Hei put away the flying sword and said, "Alright, I'm coming."

Moments later.

Xu Hei appeared in the Cave Dwelling, where Bonan was at the center, surrounded by a Formation, with two fourth-tier Magical Treasures nearby and two Dolphin Clan elders guarding, fully armed.

Although the last time had been quite a mess, at least the hidden injuries were healed. As long as the last bit of poison was cleared, he would be fully recovered.

"I'm starting," Bonan took a deep breath and swallowed the Detoxification Pill.

Xu Hei immediately held his breath, observing closely.

"Boom!!"

Bonan's body suddenly trembled, and thick black substances began to seep from his skin.

The initial seepage was slow, but gradually it accelerated, starting to spray out.

"Pop, pop, pop..."

Bonan's entire body erupted, spraying various impurities that crashed around the room, causing loud booms.

Xu Hei and Bo Xi quickly raised a light shield to block the spraying substances.

Before long, the Cave Dwelling was filled with a foul stench, with all sorts of black substances piling up, not just toxins but all sorts of junk.

Bonan's body shrank a size, even spitting black blood, with his True Qi dissipating and signs of his cultivation level dropping.

Bo Xi was dumbfounded, and Xu Hei was stunned.
