Chapter 490: Xuan Yao Patriarch comes out of retreat

Near the academy, in a hidden cave with many arrays and prohibitions.

Iron Man Andre is conducting a detailed scan and inspection of the Heaven-Swallowing Furnace.

"Through database comparison, I confirmed that this is indeed a magic weapon from the Taotie clan, but the Taotie inheritance recorded in it is not a complete version. It only records the inheritance information within the fifth level, and the complete Taotie inheritance should be at the seventh level."

Although Andre's database is incomplete, it still retains some.

Zhao Mu was a little surprised to learn that Tang Tiangao was practicing a semi-finished inheritance.

The fifth-level inheritance should not be that strong. Tang Tiangao, this old man, can guard a fifth-level inheritance and practice to the peak of the Heavenly Man Realm. He really exerted the true art of Gou to the extreme.

Fortunately, he did not get the complete Taotie inheritance.

Otherwise, Zhao Mu might not be his opponent.

Even now, after Zhao Mu tried various means, he still couldn't kill Tang Tiangao completely.

His bones had been burned into charcoal by Zhao Mu.

But his soul alone was strong and unbreakable. No matter what method Zhao Mu used, he could not completely wipe it out.

Andre told Zhao Mu that this was because Tang Tiangao had devoured too many souls and strengthened his soul to the extreme, even as strong as Zhao Mu's own immortal soul, so it would be very difficult to wipe out his soul. He could only trap and seal it, or devour and refine it.

Andre also solemnly told Zhao Mu that if Zhao Mu wanted to devour Tang Tiangao's soul, he could help clear the personality information in Tang Tiangao's soul and preserve the most essential soul power, which would be a great tonic for any cultivator.

Zhao Mu's immortal soul could even be upgraded to a higher level because of this.

But there was a prerequisite, Zhao Mu must first practice devouring skills or inheritance, such as the Taotie inheritance.

Zhao Mu was slightly moved.

If Tang Tiangao's tens of thousands of years of accumulation could be used by him, it would definitely greatly improve Zhao Mu's cultivation.

However, Zhao Mu still had some concerns about practicing the Taotie inheritance for this reason.

Andre also understood this, so he gave Zhao Mu another plan.

He would find a way to integrate the devouring talent in the Taotie inheritance into the unified cultivation system. At that time, Zhao Mu would not need to deliberately practice the Taotie inheritance. As long as the unified cultivation system was built and perfected, he could master the devouring talent in the Taotie inheritance without side effects.

"Let's do it this way. Seal Tang Tiangao first. He has too many karmas on his body. If this unclean soul is devoured, it will also cause stomach upset. Let's purify it slowly first."

Zhao Mu waved his hand and attracted a corner of the Shengyuan Demon Sect's guardian formation, and then hit the Divine Emperor Haori Bell that sealed Tang Tiangao in.

With the double suppression of the immortal weapon and the guardian formation, Tang Tiangao's soul had no chance of turning over.

When leaving the cave, Zhao Mu received a report from his disciples, saying that the sword god Qu Liu visited the Demon Sect.

Why did Qu Liu come?

Zhao Mu was slightly surprised and went to greet him immediately.

At this time, Qu Liu had just come out from visiting Tang Zhi. Seeing Zhao Mu, he immediately burst into a hearty laugh.

"Congratulations, Sect Master Zhao. It is a great merit to get rid of Tang Tiangao this time. It is a great blessing for the human race to have a genius like you!"

I didn't expect that the dignified Sword God would flatter, which made Zhao Mu look at him with a new look.

"Sword God, you are too kind. It's just getting rid of harm for the people. It's not worth mentioning. But how come the Sword God has time to visit my Demon Sect today?"

"Last time in the dangerous land, you and the Xuanji Empress saved me from danger. Now that my injuries have recovered, I naturally have to come to the Demon Sect to thank my friend Zhao as soon as possible."

"Sword God is polite. The human race is declining, and we should support each other."

"It's rare for my friend to have such awareness. The human race is not as good as it used to be. It has long been a mess."

At this point, Qu Liu couldn't help shaking his head, as if he had something on his mind.

It seems that he still has something to say.

"Sword God, please move aside to discuss in detail."

"Okay."

Inside Shengyuan Palace.

Qu Liu said solemnly: "Today, there is news from the Ten Thousand Monsters Forest. There are unusual movements in the black restricted area. It is suspected that the Xuan Yao Ancestor is about to come out of retreat!"

"This..."

This is not the first time that Zhao Mu has heard the name of the Xuan Yao Ancestor.

When he was in the South China Sea, Cang Yu told him that the sea clan was expelled from the land by the Xuan Yao Ancestor.

The Xuan Yao Ancestor is the oldest existence of the monster clan and the enemy that the human race once feared. There are several human emperors who died in his hands.

But after the ancient war, the Xuan Yao Ancestor disappeared, and tens of thousands of years have passed.

Everyone thought that the Xuan Yao Ancestor had died of old age.

Even Zhao Mu was no exception.

Now Qu Liu suddenly told him that the Xuan Yao Ancestor was still alive and was about to come out of retreat. This news was indeed a bit shocking.

So you are the Gou King!

Compared with you, Tang Tiangao is far behind.

Wait.

The sea clan fears the most is the Xuan Yao Ancestor. If the news that the Xuan Yao Ancestor is still alive is known to the sea clan, they will not dare to land!

Then Zhao Mu will lose the powerful force of the sea clan in vain!

"No, the Xuan Yao Ancestor must die!"

Zhao Mu slammed the table fiercely, saying with murderous intent.

Zhao Mu was so angry suddenly that Qu Liu was a little surprised.

But he didn't know what Zhao Mu was thinking, and thought he was afraid that the Xuan Yao Ancestor would threaten the survival of the human race again.

Qu Liu immediately said: "Yes, I thought so too. In fact, I have already communicated with the five major holy places in secret. We plan to join forces to sneak into the black forbidden area and kill the Xuan Yao Patriarch in one fell swoop while he is weak after coming out of retreat, so as to eliminate the trouble forever!"

Zhao Mu was stunned. He did want to get rid of the Xuan Yao Patriarch, but he didn't expect Qu Liu to be ready to act.

"How many participants are there?"

"I, the Immortal Medicine Venerable, and Venerable Moen have reached a cooperation. Fairy Ninghua of the Upside-down Mountain has not responded yet. Because Empress Xuanji is pregnant, I didn't notify her, but came directly to you, Zhao Xiaoyou, after all, you are a couple."

"If Fairy Ninghua can take action, it is almost equivalent to the gathering of the peak combat power of the five major holy places. This battle will be earth-shattering!" Zhao Mu suddenly looked forward to it for some unknown reason.

"Not only that, I have also contacted some hidden families and other forces. Currently, three Tianren Realm people have agreed to participate in the crusade. Currently, there are six Tianren Realm people who can fight. I predict that there will be ten Tianren Realm people who can fight in the end!" Qu Liu was determined. He must kill the Xuan Yao Ancestor in this battle, otherwise the human race will never have peace again.

"Tang Zhi and Gong Bailian can also be added. They are now following my orders."

"That means twelve Tianren Realm combat forces!"

Qu Liu was overjoyed.

This time, we are determined to succeed in the assassination operation. It will be more secure if we can attract more Tianren Realm combat forces.

"Is the time set?" Zhao Mu asked.

"The Xuan Yao Ancestor has just come out of retreat. It is estimated that it will take at least a month to recover to his peak state. If we want to successfully kill him, we must act within a month. There is not much time left for us, so we must race against time."
