Chapter 86

Chapter 86: The Demon God Stone. Beneath the buried rubble, darkness reigned, accompanied by a deathly silence.
Qin Yefeng and his two companions discovered a woman’s arm amidst the ruins of the Demon God Tower, and astonishingly, it bore patterns of blood-red scales.
As Qin Yefeng continued digging, an enchanting woman appeared. Below her waist was a snake tail covered in blood-red scales, and it bore a terrifying wound, almost severed.
The Ancient Snake Demon was enveloped in a transparent, pristine white shield, which seemed incredibly tough, directly blocking the falling boulders and saving Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s life.
“Bai Yiying Naga Sea!” Xiong Yu exclaimed in surprise, hastily pulling Qin Yefeng back.
“Hm.”
Zi Baiying frowned, glanced at Qin Yefeng, and whispered, “This Ancient Snake Demon sealed within the Demon God Tower is extremely dangerous to us. I think we should leave quickly.”
“Wait, what’s that white glowing thing?”
Qin Yefeng looked at the chest of Bai Yiying Naga Sea Empress, where a jade-white stone floated, currently emitting a dazzling, brilliant white light.
Seeing Bai Yiying Naga Sea heavily injured and unconscious, Xiong Yu made a throat-slitting gesture and suggested, “Should we kill this Snake Demon and take the Demon God Stone?”
“Forget it. This woman is too powerful. Even though Bai Yiying Naga Sea is unconscious right now, there’s no telling when she might wake up. We shouldn’t provoke her,” Qin Yefeng cautiously advised Xiong Yu.
Xiong Yu recalled Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s terrifying destructive power unleashed from high in the air. He ultimately shook his head, abandoning the thought of killing for treasure.
Just as Qin Yefeng and his companions were about to find another subterranean path to slip away, no longer wishing to remain in this dangerous place.
Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s enchanting face revealed a pair of narrow Phoenix Eyes opening, showing a gaze both pained and seductive. Her dark, thin lips held a hint of danger that pierced one’s heart.
“Don’t leave yet,” Bai Yiying Naga Sea said in a faint voice.
Qin Yefeng and the others were startled. Xiong Yu even scrambled to get away, but three sides of them were tightly packed with fallen rocks, making a quick escape impossible.
The only viable path was blocked by Bai Yiying Naga Sea, the Huang Snake Demon. Xiong Yu frantically dug at the rocks with both hands, completely disregarding the sharp edges scraping his palms.
Realizing he couldn’t leave quickly, Xiong Yu wailed miserably, “Empress, you haven’t killed us, and we haven’t taken advantage of your weakness to kill you. Please spare us!”
“Don’t be afraid. My life force is almost depleted; I might die at any moment. And I currently lack the ability to kill any of you,” Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s even weaker voice drifted out.
Qin Yefeng turned to look at Bai Yiying Naga Sea, finding her face as pale as white paper, her breath barely a whisper, and no killing intent directed at them.
Still, Qin Yefeng erupted with Dark Golden Burning Heaven Dragon Flame, cautiously asking, “Why did you stop us?”
“From your body, I sense a bloodline even more powerful than my own, and it’s even purer than the Huang Snake’s bloodline. Therefore, I’ve decided to entrust the Demon God Stone to you before I die.”
After speaking, Bai Yiying Naga Sea struggled to sit up, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood as she forcefully activated her Demonic Art.
From Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s hands, complex Hand Seals began to form. The stone, imbued with the Mudra of Granting Wishes and the Mudra of Fearlessness, capable of dispelling all illusions, started to detach from her body, emitting a brilliant white light.
Then, as Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s Blood-red Demonic Power circulated, the jade-white stone, swirling with energy, floated into Qin Yefeng’s hand.
“What exactly is this Demon God Stone?” Qin Yefeng felt the fist-sized Demon God Stone in his hand was somewhat cold, yet it contained immense power.
Bai Yiying Naga Sea noticed that the Demon God Stone did not reject Qin Yefeng. At this moment, her blood-red lips held a smile that pierced one’s heart, and her eyes revealed a gentle yet seductive gaze as she looked at Qin Yefeng.
“The Demon God Stone is the Huang Pearl, the concentrated essence of our Huang Snake lineage. It can awaken the bloodline within your body. Now that I’ve entrusted the Huang Pearl to you, I can die in peace.”
Qin Yefeng placed the Demon God Stone into his Storage Bag, observing Bai Yiying Naga Sea before him. Her life force was almost completely gone, and she could perish at any moment.
“Do you have any other wishes?” Qin Yefeng asked tentatively, watching the fresh red blood continuously flow from Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s severed snake tail.
“I hope you can use the Huang Pearl to push our bloodline to its peak, achieving…” Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s words trailed off as she completely lost her life force, her beauty fading into oblivion.
Bai Yiying Naga Sea could sense that the bloodline within Qin Yefeng was not that of the Demon Race, but rather the Dragon Race bloodline. The Dragon bloodline inherently shared a common origin with the Ancient Snake Demon, the Huang Snake.
Therefore, Bai Yiying Naga Sea still decided to hand the Huang Pearl to him, and she did not speak too explicitly in front of Xiong Yu and Zi Baiying.
Qin Yefeng still acknowledged Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s power in his heart, for she truly possessed the bloodline of the Ancient Huang Snake, capable of discerning the Divine Dragon bloodline within him, and thus extended such goodwill out of mutual affinity.
In truth, Bai Yiying Naga Sea had the opportunity to kill all three of them. Yet, in her final moments, she chose to entrust the ultimate goal of a snake transforming into a true dragon to Qin Yefeng. This deeply impressed Qin Yefeng.
Unconsciously, Qin Yefeng felt he should do something for Bai Yiying Naga Sea Empress.
Although Bai Yiying Naga Sea possessed the bloodline of the Demon Race and was not of his own kind, she had, after all, helped him. He felt he should repay her kindness.
“Be careful, both of you. I’m going to collapse this place. We can’t let Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s remains be discovered by others. Step back a bit,” Qin Yefeng said, turning to Xiong Yu and Zi Baiying.
After seeing his two companions retreat a safe distance, Qin Yefeng erupted with Golden-Yellow Spiritual Power, raised his fist, and smashed it fiercely into the pile of fallen rocks. Boulder after boulder instantly shattered.
“Boom!”
After a tremendous roar, Bai Yiying Naga Sea’s body was completely buried beneath the fallen rocks. From the rubble, it was impossible to tell that the remains of a Purple Mansion Realm Ancient Demonic Beast lay there.
“Qin Yefeng, why was Bai Yiying Naga Sea Empress so good to you?” Zi Baiying asked, puzzled.
“Well, perhaps I have some destiny with this Ancient Demon Race, which is why Bai Yiying Naga Sea entrusted the Demon God Stone to me,” Qin Yefeng replied, half-truthfully.
