Chapter 330: Changes and Subjugation

The green-robed elder let out a sigh upon hearing this but said nothing more.

The reason their snake clan with a low-grade bloodline had grown to its current state was due to the blood pool before them.

By placing snake-type magical beasts into it, the blood pool would be activated, releasing energy that could improve the snake bloodline, and even cause bloodline mutations.

Although the success rate was low, the accumulation of a huge number of low-level snakes had resulted in a fair effect, and they relied on this to maintain and add new members to their clan.

Back then, they all dipped in the blood pool before obtaining their current achievements.

However, the Snake Lord now wished to transgress the rules, and the First Elder, understandably, didn't want to go along with him.

But despite being the First Elder, he was only a two-star Dou Venerate, while the Snake Lord was a five-star Dou Venerate, so he couldn't overrule the Snake Lord's decision.

"Let the blood ritual begin," the muscular man said in a deep voice, before closing his eyes again.

"Begin," the green-robed elder could only wave his hand behind him.

Not far from him, the ugly-looking Third Elder nodded slightly, took two steps forward, flipped his hand, and a small red flag appeared.

The Third Elder muttered some incantations, and the still blood pool began to boil, with small fist-sized bubbles appearing on the surface.

"Go!"

Finally, the Third Elder waved his flag and pointed it towards the blood pool.

Plop, plop, plop!

Immediately, countless little snakes raced into the blood pool, descending from the ceiling, cliffs, and ground like a rain of snakes.

As these small snakes entered, the blood pool suddenly emitted a brilliant light and began to boil vigorously.

When the snakes entered the pool, they became entwined, and the majority of them melted into blood, becoming part of the pool, with only a small portion surviving.

Countless small snakes continued to line up on the shore, eagerly awaiting their turn to jump into the pool. The Third Elder observed the scene without even blinking, as he had witnessed this process countless times before.

Breaking through the limits of bloodlines was a challenging endeavor, with success or death being the only outcomes. He had grown accustomed to such sacrifices.

After some time, all the snake-type magical beasts below the fourth rank had entered the blood pool, yet the pool's level remained unchanged. It did not rise despite the influx of snakes.

Sitting cross-legged above the blood pool, the Snake Lord began to manipulate his hands, forming intricate seals. Ripples spread across the surface of the pool, growing stronger with each passing moment.

Wisps of crimson mist started to rise from the pool's surface, causing the remaining small snakes to merge with the blood pool.

The Snake Lord's aura gradually intensified, and it was at this moment that Xiao Ming and his companions arrived at the small valley, sensing that something unusual was unfolding.

...

After waiting for a while, Xiao Ming and the others noticed that although the blood mist shimmered near the Ancient Heaven Serpent skeleton, there was no significant movement.

After considering their options, Xiao Ming waved to Qing Lin and the others, signaling them to follow him as he flew directly to the location of the skeleton.

The small valley was not particularly large, and everyone quickly found themselves in front of the skeleton. It was at this moment that a sudden change occurred.

Drop by drop, sparkling liquid gradually fell from the skeleton, and as the liquid dissipated, the once crystal-clear bones lost their luster, eventually crumbling into a pile of bone fragments.

Simultaneously, the blood mist that surrounded the area thickened and converged above the nearby blood pool. It formed and refused to disperse, emitting a ferocious aura. A frightening roar resonated from the mist.

As the mist accumulated and morphed, a huge serpent with up to nine fierce heads appeared in front of Xiao Ming and his companions. Its presence exuded a deadly aura, sending chills down their spines.

...

Inside the cave, the Snake Lord's aura suddenly erupted, forcing its body to quiver wildly. Then, out of nowhere, a three-meter-wide stream of blood spurted from the blood pool, enveloping him. "Not good!"

Everyone present's faces changed when they saw this scene.

Although the blood pool contained special energy useful for snakes, it was extremely ferocious. Only small snakes with undeveloped intelligence could enter it without much trouble. For those like them who had already developed their intelligence, contact with the blood pool could easily scatter their minds and cause them to lose their rationality. That was also why the Snake Lord was floating on the surface of the pool instead of entering it.

Despite this, the Snake Lord was still affected to some extent, as evidenced by the bloodshot eyes earlier.

Now, the blood pool had directly wrapped around him, and everyone felt it was a calamity!

The green-robed Elder gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and launched out like an arrow at the Snake Lord.

He hurried towards the Snake Lord, and before he reached the blood column, a green Dou Qi palm print had already been hurled towards the Snake Lord.

Under the effect of the Dou Qi palm print, the blood column collapsed with a loud bang, but at this moment, the Snake Lord had already disappeared without a trace!

'Damn it!' Witnessing this scene, the green-robed Elder's pupils shrank, and he slowly lowered his head.

The Snake Lord had entered the blood pool!

The blood pool was a pure-blood red world, and the innumerable little snakes that had been thrown into it before seemed to have had no effect on it.

With a struggling expression on his face, the Snake Lord appeared in the blood pool.

After a brief moment, though, his eyes were replaced by a red glow.

The Snake Lord, who had lost his senses, slowly lifted his head and gazed up to the top of the blood pool, where the Elder stood with his head lowered.

...

"This is the soul body of an Ancient Heaven Serpent! It's at least on the level of a six-star Dou Venerate!" Venerable Tian Huo's eyes twitched as he felt the strong soul fluctuations.

"A six-star Dou Venerate?" Even Xiao Ming couldn't help but swallow his saliva. If this Ancient Heaven Serpent still possessed such power, it wouldn't be easy to deal with.

"Prepare for battle. In any case, let's subdue this thing first. A soul body cannot last long," said Xiao Ming, his eyes sharpening.

He summoned his two golden puppets, intending to weaken the power of the serpent's soul body.

"Wait, Young Master. If only the soul body remains, I believe I could control it without diminishing its power. It doesn't seem to resist me," Qing Lin said hesitantly.

"This..." Xiao Ming hesitated.

He knew Qing Lin had the capacity to control the soul of the Ancient Heaven Serpent, which is why he brought her to its burial ground. However, he was uncertain if she could bear the current might of its soul body while still being a Dou Emperor.

"Let me try, Young Master," Qing Lin said resolutely. After all, you, Sister Xian'er, and Senior Yao are all here to watch." She met Xiao Ming's gaze with unwavering determination, though there was a hint of shyness in her expression.

"... Alright then," Xiao Ming finally agreed.

Observing the nine-headed serpent, which remained relatively calm, he decided to let Qing Lin attempt to control the soul body. It would be a waste to diminish the power of the Ancient Heaven Serpent's remaining soul.

With a nod, Qing Lin stepped forward and formed seals with her hands, a strange green flower appearing in her pupils.

Two green lights shot out from her eyes, illuminating the fierce nine-headed serpent. Surprisingly, the Ancient Heaven Serpent, filled with a violent and murderous aura, didn't resist at all.

In a short time, she successfully took control of the snake's soul body, and in the eighteen pairs of pupils of the nine serpent heads, the same strange flower pattern appeared as the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils in Qing Lin's eyes.

The entire process went smoothly without any hiccups, much to the relief of Xiao Ming and the others who were watching attentively.
