Chapter 456: Chapter 456

"A mere inheritance! You intend to destroy my foundation? I’ll suppress you!" Zhang Xiaohao bellowed with a ferocious expression.

As his words fell, the War God pattern behind him began to move rapidly.

A stream of blood-red power, centered on the Xingtian Battle Axe, was seen.

In the blink of an eye, it condensed into a vast black hole.

The black hole trembled, unleashing a massive suction force.

Streams of inheritance power were extracted from his body and swiftly transferred into the massive black hole.

The inheritance power, which was close to breaching Zhang Xiaohao’s defenses, was forcefully halted by the black hole’s domineering intervention.

That step could never be taken.

Instead, as time went on,

Wave after wave of inheritance power was sucked into the vortex of the black hole transformed by the War God pattern.

With each absorption of inheritance power, the black hole that had been formed by the War God pattern grew more substantial.

Gradually, the black hole transformed by the War God pattern grew larger and larger.

The emitted suction force became even mightier.

Under this tremendous suction, streams of inheritance power were rapidly pulled out from Zhang Xiaohao’s body and into the black hole formed by the War God pattern.

Zhang Xiaohao’s realm regressing swiftly from the initial stages of the Wheel Palace Realm.

As time went on, his realm within his body was once again at the Middle Control Realm.

However, the black hole transformed by the War God pattern did not cease; it became more proactive instead. Google seaʀᴄh 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚑𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⚑𝙣𝙚𝙩

It aimed to absorb all the remaining inheritance power within Zhang Xiaohao’s body.

The inheritance power seemed to sense a lethal threat.

Under the pressure of the black hole transformed by the War God pattern, it no longer cared to coerce Zhang Xiaohao into accepting the inheritance.

Turning swiftly, it flew out of Zhang Xiaohao’s body and retreated back into the golden bead.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohao exhaled a long turbid breath.

The heart he had been holding tight finally relaxed.

Without the temptation of inheritance power, the War God pattern turned nimbly, transforming into streams of Bloodline Power, which closely followed into Zhang Xiaohao’s body and disappeared.

Concentrating his mind, Zhang Xiaohao quickly checked his current state.

"Hmm? What’s going on?" Zhang Xiaohao muttered, frowning.

The inheritance power inside his body had completely vanished, and his martial foundation had not been forcibly destroyed.

Although his cultivation was still at the Middle Control Realm, it had become more stable.

Even his Soul Power had broken through to the Peak of Earth Stage Early Stage amidst the life-threatening excitement just now.

The meridians that were forcibly opened by the inheritance power remained quietly in place.

Zhang Xiaohao tried to operate the Shennong Battle Sky Technique.

A tremendous aura burst forth from within him.

Compared to before, the Shennong Battle Sky Technique’s operation and explosion had increased threefold.

To give a comparison,

If the damage unleashed by the same amount of True Qi before was one times,

Now, the damage unleashed by the same amount of True Qi was three times.

Moreover, the same applied to the operation and refinement processes.

"Eh! Where did this True Qi come from? Wasn’t the True Qi and Soul Power in my body completely sealed by the mysterious force in the tomb? How has it recovered? Could it be because of the inheritance power just now?" Zhang Xiaohao pondered suspiciously.

With a sweep of his Soul Power, within three miles, he could see every movement of wind-blown grass; nothing could escape his sight.

"It really has recovered, which is an unexpected joy! However, these meridians forcibly opened by the inheritance power in my body, I’m not sure if they are a blessing or a curse!" Zhang Xiaohao murmured.

Shaking his head, Zhang Xiaohao decided not to overthink it.

A blessing or a curse, one can’t hide from misfortune!

If it really came to an unavoidable moment, he could simply seal the surplus meridians that had been forcibly opened by the inheritance power.

He flipped his palm and took out a clean black suit from the Shennong Ring, putting it on, then gathered all the black Crystal Stones on the ground into it.

After fondling the golden bead for a while, he shook his head and put it away as well.

With a grasp of his hand, he put the Dragon Slayer Blade into the Shennong Ring.

Holding the Fish Intestine Sword in one hand, Zhang Xiaohao took out the parchment map he had gotten from Master Wanfa’s body.

He confirmed his current location.

According to the map, in this Inheritance Space, straight to the north, there was a huge passage that led into the depths of the tomb.

Once out of this eerie island, the restricted True Qi and Soul Power would recover once again.

He stowed the parchment map away.

Zhang Xiaohao nodded and said, "So that’s how it is! However, my True Qi and Soul Power have already recovered in advance, and it seems they’re not affected by the mysterious power here!"

His eyes swept across.

He looked at the Luminous Pearls the size of adult fists and the blood-red altar made of jade stones around the space.

"Hmph! Since you dared to transfer your inheritance into me forcefully, I’ll leave you penniless!" Zhang Xiaohao smirked coldly.

With a tip of his foot, he felt the incredible speed of the Twelve Heavenly Steps again, his heart bursting with excitement!

A figure flickered back and forth in the hall.

In just a moment, other than the blood-red altar, all the other valuable items had been collected into the Shennong Ring by Zhang Xiaohao; he almost left no stone unturned.

Standing by the Blood Stone Altar, Zhang Xiaohao’s face showed a cold smirk.

Holding the Fish Intestine Sword, he unleashed his divine power and struck it at the center of the altar, cutting the ground around it and making it stand alone.

With a flick of his sleeve, he gathered the Blood Stone Altar into the Shennong Ring.

With this, all the most precious treasures within the tomb of the Cycle Palace Realm Great Power had been taken by Zhang Xiaohao.

Following the introduction on the parchment map.

Zhang Xiaohao headed to the northern position indicated.

"Netherworld Demon God Body!" The black luster on his palm revolved domineeringly, struck the stone wall.

The stone wall was directly blasted apart, revealing a huge opening.

Zhang Xiaohao stepped lightly and quickly made his way into the secret tunnel using the Twelve Heavenly Steps.

This time, he was going to procure that millennium-old Spiritual Medicine.

As for the agreement with Ning Yue, he sneered!!

A quarter-hour later.

Zhang Xiaohao lightly tapped his foot and flew out of the secret tunnel.

Before him was a clear blue sky and white clouds, the air rich with nature’s spiritual energy.

"Haha! I’ve finally come out," Zhang Xiaohao said excitedly.

"Eh! It’s actually you, Bao Butong! Heaven has a path which you didn’t take, and Hell has no gate, yet you insist on barging in! Since Heaven has delivered you to Han’s presence, you can’t blame me for what comes next! Once I slay you, the position of Tianyin Sect’s Saint Heir will be mine! Then, no one can stop me from occupying that throne of the Saint Heir!" Senior Brother Han’s face twisted fiercely, his killing intent surging as he spoke.

At the same time as he spoke.

Senior Brother Han and the old woman approached Zhang Xiaohao, one from the left and the other from the right, closing in on him.
