259: Ancestral bloodline

This time, with the experience from last time, Ming Ya no longer needed multiple layers of protection to absorb it.

Instead, he absorbed the entire golden crystal bead in front of all the Ming Clan members present.

Ming Ya did not conceal his increasingly powerful pressure, allowing it to spread out.

After absorbing the entire Mirror Clan's bloodline energy, Ming Ya's aura surged dramatically again.

As Ming Clan members of the same bloodline and bloodline system, the pressure they felt at this moment was the strongest.

This bloodline power had almost reached the level of their second-generation bloodline.

Their later-generation bloodlines had all their cultivation built upon their bloodline.

Facing a bloodline of this level, they couldn't even muster a hint of resistance.

Under such suppression originating from the depths of their bloodline, their strength would likely be less than half of what it should be.

The terrifying oppressive force made all the Ming Clan members with Ming Clan bloodlines unable to straighten their backs, and they all had an urge to kneel on the spot.

Moreover, among those present, the stronger the bloodline and the higher the cultivation, the more severe the suppression they experienced.

This, this was a sign of bloodline atavism!

All the Ming Clan powerhouses didn't know what exactly had happened, they only knew that their clan leader's bloodline and strength had become even more powerful.

With such terrifying might, their Ming Clan was truly about to produce an ancestor!

As excited as they were, so was Ming Ya, as the owner of the bloodline and the clan leader of the Ming Clan.

What he sensed and knew was far beyond what those people could compare to.

For example, when his bloodline changed, he immediately realized that it was a bloodline atavism.

However, he hadn't celebrated too early.

As the owner of the bloodline, Ming Ya could clearly feel that the bloodline had only just begun to undergo atavism.

Everything had only just begun its first step.

What he had now was still just a half-finished product, only possessing some characteristics of atavism.

To truly and completely achieve bloodline atavism, these bloodlines alone were still not enough.

Ming Ya didn't have a precise estimate of how much was needed.

But he knew that the bloodline energy required in between would definitely not be small.

Just absorbing the bloodline energy of two clans had such an effect.

As long as he could take down the remaining five clans, and then the Ming Clan along with them, it would definitely be enough.

Ming Ya had tested the Ming Clan's bloodline; the extracted bloodline did not need to have highly differentiated parts removed and could be completely absorbed directly.

This should be because Ming Ya and the Ming Clan members themselves were of the same bloodline, and the highly differentiated bloodline parts could still perfectly match Ming Ya.

In other words, absorbing the bloodline of Ming Clan members would not result in any waste.

Moreover, their Ming Clan's bloodline was currently in a relatively powerful period.

Overall, it was second only to the Xiao Clan's bloodline.

But the ultimate gain from absorbing the Ming Clan would likely be more than that from two Xiao Clans combined.

Compared to the weakest Xuan Clan, it could probably rival three to four of them.

Of course, if he couldn't take all Eight Clans in the end, he would have no choice but to start with the Ming Clan.

Although he wanted to save it for last, if it couldn't be done, there was no need to persist.

The urgent matter now was to quickly acquire all the bloodline energy he could get.

So, after the Mirror Clan incident was concluded, Ming Ya did not linger or rest excessively.

Instead, he led his Pi Ming Realm subordinates and rushed to the next clan among the Eight Clans—the Shi Clan!

Behind him, the Black-Robed Figure looked at the scene of the Mirror Clan before him.

He then looked at Ming Ya's retreating figure and silently nodded.

...

"So the Mirror Clan was wiped out so quickly?"

This did not come as a surprise to Chen De.

Chen De had previously seen the entire process of how they dealt with the Xuan Clan by sensing the memories of those several Ming Clan elders he had influenced.

The methods used by that Black-Robed Figure were very strange, though they had no effect on Chen De, of course.

However, such methods, whether facing Xuan Ji of the Xuan Clan or Mirror Xuan of the Mirror Clan, would make no difference in the outcome.

And because the Mirror Clan was gathered together, with extraction and killing done on the spot.

The time taken in the end was much less than when dealing with the Xuan Clan.

According to the news that just arrived, the next target for the Ming Clan was the Shi Clan among the Eight Clans.

According to Chen De's planned quantity, the Ming Clan was almost done.

Again, Chen De had originally planned to personally instigate conflicts.

Now, everything Chen De wanted to do, the Ming Clan had done for him.

So what did Chen De's efforts during this period amount to? A lesson?

According to Chen De's estimation, the Ming Clan's next target would most likely be the Nu Clan.

Even if it wasn't the Nu Clan, Chen De had left his influenced people in the remaining clans.

As soon as the Ming Clan finished there, Chen De would immediately activate the 'Holy Mothers' in the three remaining clans.

Chen De didn't expect them to win; currently, on the Heavenly Dome Continent, only Chen De and the Black-Robed Figure could deal with Ming Ya.

Chen De's real goal was to uncover all the hidden cards of the Heavenly Dome Continent.

Among them, both the Black-Robed Figure and the now greatly strengthened Ming Ya were excellent test subjects.

The main reason was that, after this period of exploration, Chen De already had a guess about the identity of the Black-Robed Figure.

Chen De was confident that he could use this to resolve all factors on the Heavenly Dome Continent that he currently couldn't deal with, including the Black-Robed Figure.

After some thought, Chen De decided to return to the Xiao Clan first to check.

If Chen De guessed correctly, the final battlefield should be in the Xiao Clan.

Since that was the case, Chen De would wait there in advance.

The forces left in the other clans would simply follow the orders Chen De had given in advance.

Chen De wanted to personally command this final battle.

According to Chen De's calculations, he shouldn't need to personally intervene in this final battle.

He would only need to clean up the battlefield at the very end.

With Chen De's strength, on the Heavenly Dome Continent, as long as he wished, he could quickly reach any place he had marked or knew.

Returning to the Xiao Clan, Chen De only took less than ten breaths of time.

This time, Chen De did not use spatial power, only pure speed.

Upon arriving at the Xiao Clan, Chen De chose an inconspicuous minor character to parasitize.

As soon as he returned, Chen De heard news circulating everywhere there.

Chen De listened and realized that the things he had done in the northwestern part of the Heavenly Dome Continent had come to light!

Moreover, this news was brought back by a Xiao Clan elder who had been traveling.

Before this, many others had actually discovered this news.

It was just that their cultivation was not strong enough; they didn't have the strength of a Pi Ming Realm Xiao Clan elder.

In Central State, normal Pi Ming Realm cultivators generally rarely actively went to remote areas like the northwest.

Those below the Pi Ming Realm who knew about it had cultivation that was too weak.
