Chapter 1559: Gains (1/2)
Dong Li took the purple crystal subconsciously, and her mind immediately started rumbling. “What’s this?”
THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!
Even her heartbeat became rapid.
The spiritual core emanating mysterious dark power in her spiritual sea also grew restless, as if it were urging her to refine that crystal as soon as possible.
Numerous complicated bloodline veins that were vested with the profound truths of dark power could be seen in the depths of the purple crystal in her palm.
Besides, the crystal was infused with rich dark bloodline power!
With a smile, Nie Tian said, “This is what the so-called Son of Darkness has become. Even though Aztec was only at the early tenth grade, he did carry the Dark King’s bloodline. This crystal is a condensation of all of his flesh aura, along with the majority of his bloodline power and his understanding of dark power.
“If you can refine it, not only will it help your cultivation base improve, but your compatibility and closeness with the dark stone and the Dark Aureole will also improve.”
As he spoke, the black tortoise’s foot landed on the dark stone that had belonged to Aztec.
FZZZ! FZZZ!
Wisps of black lightning sputtered from that eye, as if they were the manifestations of some dark magical law.
The black tortoise retracted its enormous foot abruptly and sent a message to Nie Tian, informing him that it wasn’t that easy to neutralize the Dark King’s residual power.
Nie Tian nodded and said, “I’ve long since suspected that this would happen. After transcending the tenth grade and understanding the true essence of darkness, the Dark King refined the dark stones and the Dark Aureole over and over. That’s why they all carry his bloodline imprints. Aztec could only control them so skillfully because they shared the same bloodline origin.
“However...” He smiled and turned to look at Dong Li. “After you refine this Profound Truths Crystal, you’ll be able to wield the dark stones and the Dark Aureole as skillfully as Aztec could. By that time, the dark power you and the black tortoise will be able to wield together will shake heaven and earth. Even normal middle tenth grade outsider grand monarchs will be no match for you.”
Dong Li’s eyes lit up. “Are you serious? If I refine this crystal, will I really be able to do what Aztec could?”
“Yes.” Nie Tian gave an affirmative answer. “Aztec’s heart and all of his dark blood are condensed in that crystal. Once you refine and merge it with you, you’ll have the bloodline of the descendants of the Dark King.”
Overjoyed after hearing this, Dong Li asked, “How are you doing?”
Everyone’s gaze instantly fixed on Nie Tian.
Having been enveloped in darkness for so long, they didn’t know the current situation in the outside world, or the reason for Nie Tian’s sudden arrival.
“I’m fine, but the situation the human domains are facing isn’t so good,” Nie Tian said with a grim expression. “Now that the darkness has dissipated, you can turn to your respective sources of information. They’ll tell you everything.”
“Have outsider armies from the Void World poured into the Domain of Endless Snow already, Nie Tian?” Ye Wenhan asked, looking concerned.
“I’m afraid so,” Nie Tian said.
After taking a moment to think, he added, “Ladies and gentlemen, why don’t you return to your main realms or the realms that are protected by powerful grand spell formations for now? I’m not sure whether more outsider grand monarchs are pouring into our world through the Seven Stars Realm Sea. All we can do now is figure out the situation we’re in, and then plan our next move.”
A clamor then broke out among the human experts.
Thanks to the dissipation of the darkness, Ji Yuanquan, who was well-versed in spatial power, could split open spatial rifts now.
Soon, spatial rifts that connected to the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, the Five Elements Sect, the Void Spirit Society, and the Heaven Span Pavilion opened one after another.
Many Saint domain leaders of various human sects and clans were just feeling relieved for being saved when they learned that their realms had been sacked by the outsiders from the Void World. Others learned that their realms were safe for now, but still had heavy hearts and feared for their future.
Therefore, all of them left hurriedly through the spatial rifts.
Many from the four great sects also returned to their headquarters to gather information.
