261: Seal

Without hesitation, he immediately refined and absorbed the bloodline energy in his hand.

This caused the Ming Ya's bloodline transformation process to advance significantly once again.

However, this bloodline energy was still not enough for him to truly complete the process of bloodline atavism.

But his current bloodline had already surpassed that of the second generation of the Ming Clan.

In terms of bloodline alone, throughout the entire history of the Ming Clan, he was now second only to the Ming Ancestor!

This also made Ming Ya's sense of oppression even stronger, and his suppression of similar bloodlines deepened.

Now, even a second-generation member might be suppressed to some extent in front of Ming Ya.

Not to mention the other Ming Clan powerhouses around him.

However, with things having progressed this far, the time left for him would only become shorter and shorter.

Not daring to delay, after taking down the Shi Clan and absorbing their bloodline energy, he immediately rushed to his next target, the Nu Clan!

...

On the other side, Chen De lay on the grass, looking up at the sky.

What do people live for?

What is the meaning of our existence?

Is it for a higher realm, or are we controlled by desires?

Chen De stared blankly at the sky, unable to find the answer to this question.

He only felt that the universe was so vast, and humans were so small.

What did a little bit of profit matter, and what did a few enemies amount to?

In the final analysis, they were nothing more than a drop in the ocean of the vast universe.

Chen De thought a great deal; at this moment, he only felt that his state of mind had entered an indescribable level.

After an unknown amount of time.

Finally, Chen De freed his hands and propped himself up to stand.

Because Chen De had just received another message: only one clan of the Ming Clan remained.

At their current pace, the last clan would certainly not take much time.

Chen De had already arranged everything he needed to, and now the Xiao Clan's attention had been coincidentally diverted to the northwest by Chen De.

This might, on the contrary, accelerate the exposure of the Ming Clan.

After all, even though such an incident hadn't happened to them directly, what if it did?

Moreover, this wasn't just a matter for the Xiao Clan alone; the Xiao Clan couldn't handle it by themselves.

The other seven clans couldn't sit idle either; they also had to find a solution.

At that time, when the Xiao Clan sent people to those few clans to check, they would find them all empty.

Perhaps Chen De wouldn't even need to personally trigger the explosion.

Of course, these were just thoughts.

Chen De still had to personally trigger the explosion.

Handing the plan over to others would introduce too many variables.

A plan, so-called, is to minimize variables as much as possible and try to make things develop in the direction one has planned.

At this moment, Chen De looked at a formation seal he had just finished making in his hand.

Chen De had been unable to free his hands earlier because he was condensing this formation seal.

The Three-Gate Formation was a one-time grand formation; once used, it had to be set up again.

However, the advantage was that Chen De could prepare and store them in advance.

For example, the mark in Chen De's hand now seemed to float in his hand.

But it was not so; Chen De had imprinted it within a space he had condensed beforehand.

The thin film on its surface was the boundary between the space where the formation seal resided and the outside space.

When Chen De used it, he only needed to remove the surface space film.

The inner space would quickly merge with the outside space.

Thus, this mark would then be imprinted on the outer space.

This made it extremely convenient to carry.

And Chen De needed to use the Three-Gate Formation in many places.

So, when Chen De had nothing to do, he would condense some formation seals whenever he had time.

After all, these formation seals took a lot of time to condense; one would take about half an hour.

If he waited until he needed them to condense them, it might cause delays.

Those Chen De had used before were also ones he had condensed in advance.

He put away this newly condensed formation seal, placing it in his specially condensed personal storage space.

Then, Chen De pulled out a source bead about three times the size of a marble.

This was what Chen De had left after maxing out his attribute points.

Chen De was such a person, thrifty and not wasting a single bit of resources.

That vast area in the northwest of the Firmament Continent, Chen De had maxed out all his breakthrough attribute points.

He had initially thought it wouldn't be enough, but unfortunately, in the end, Chen De still took too much.

Watching the black smoke billowing out from it, Chen De suddenly had an idea.

With a wave of his hand, a half-grown child was teleported in front of Chen De.

This boy was Xiao Feng's son.

Chen De hadn't expected that Xiao Feng, such an unremarkable fellow, already had a wife and even a son.

In Xiao Yun's memories, Chen De had not seen this news at all.

He had kept it very well hidden, so much so that even Xiao Yun, who often socialized with him, didn't know.

Chen De only learned this news from Xiao Feng's memories.

It was said that he had secretly pledged his life to a woman from the clan, and they had a child after falling in love.

After all, his bloodline wasn't very strong; he belonged to the group that should have been married off to outsiders.

So there was nothing to boast about, and therefore, apart from those close to them, no one in the clan knew.

Chen De moved him over for no other reason than to verify a conjecture.

The sturdy little boy looked a bit bewildered after arriving, completely unaware of where he was.

Then, he looked at the young man in front of him, who was smiling gently.

He recognized this man; although his father had not publicly acknowledged him, he would occasionally see this person talking to his father when he came out to look for him.

So, as soon as he saw the man, he immediately recognized him, "Greetings, Uncle Xiao Yun!"

Chen De was not surprised that he could recognize Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun had seen him before when he talked with Xiao Feng.

It was just that at that time, Xiao Yun did not know that the little boy was Xiao Feng's child.

Chen De smiled and nodded, taking out the remaining source bead.

And, he casually concealed the black smoke on it.

The righteous path of heaven and earth must not be slandered; outside, no matter who he faced or in what capacity, he had to uphold the glorious image of the Holy Mother Sect.

After all, if you want no one to know, you must not do it!

Chen De took out that source bead, showed it to the little boy in front of him, and said with a smile, "Look!"

As soon as the little boy saw the source bead, he had never seen such a beautiful bead before, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"Uncle, what is this? It's so beautiful!"

Chen De smiled and asked in return, "Guess what this is. If you guess correctly, I'll give it to you."

"Really?" the little boy asked in surprise.

Chen De said with a serious expression, "Of course, I keep my word!"

"That's great, Uncle, you can't go back on your word!

I'm going to give it to my mother as a gift; she'll definitely love it," the little boy said happily.

This bead was so beautiful, emitting a three-colored halo, stunningly gorgeous, more beautiful than anything he had ever seen.
