Chapter 550 Mutation
"The demon race's heavenly tribulation!"

Li Qianjie's eyelids twitched wildly when he saw this, and he couldn't help but speak in a deep voice.

He could feel that a powerful divine power and calamity had locked onto this place.

Now this divine might was more than ten times stronger than the one he experienced when he was going through the Nascent Soul Tribulation, and it immediately made his scalp tingle!

At this time, it was not difficult for Qin Ming and others to guess that it must be the Sea-Splitting Demon Saint of the Mermaid Clan, who was about to transcend the tribulation here and strive for the fourth level of perfection.

If he can successfully survive this disaster, his strength will surely improve by leaps and bounds.

The three of them had not expected that when they were about to take the Heart-Searching Fruit, they happened to encounter this mermaid demon saint breaking through to a new level.

The fourth-order perfect great demon thunder tribulation is extremely terrifying. Even those with the cultivation levels of Li Qianjie and Xiao Xun dare not rush into it.

Xiao Xun wanted to take advantage of the last chance to quickly pick the Heart-Questioning Fruit and retreat.

But at this moment.

Qin Ming's powerful divine sense suddenly sensed an unusual fluctuation.

next moment.

The Green Emperor's Dharma Eye between his Nascent Soul's eyebrows suddenly opened!

When the azure light swept across the two-foot-tall Questioning Heart Fruit tree, an unusual figure was vaguely seen nearby.

Even he felt an extremely dangerous feeling.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, it's dangerous! Retreat quickly!" Qin Ming reminded him quickly.

Xiao Xun was startled when he heard this, and looked at the Heart-Questioning Fruit that was so close to him. Although there was a trace of reluctance in his eyes, after hearing Qin Ming's warning, he knew that there must be some kind of danger.

She gritted her teeth, decisively gave up on taking the fruit, pulled away, and returned to Qin Ming's side.

But Li Qianjie on the side seemed unwilling to give up. Knowing that the Heart-Seeking Fruit would rot as soon as it left the branch, he still ignored the advice and flew forward to explore.

Suddenly!
Just when Li Qianjie was about to use magic to absorb the spiritual fruit, a rough-looking man with a human body and a mermaid tail appeared behind the spiritual fruit. His body was covered with blue-black scales, revealing his half-human, half-demon appearance.

Qin Ming's eyes flashed with a sharp light when he saw this. He thought that the person who was undergoing the heavenly tribulation was this person. He was the fourth-stage late-stage Sea-Splitting Demon Saint of the mermaid clan.

Swish!
He just glanced at Li Qianjie indifferently, and a black light flew out, instantly piercing through his body's protective qi, and continued to move forward, piercing him through the abdomen.

After the black light turned around, it flew back to the Sea-Splitting Demon Saint.

"Ugh! It's poisonous!"

Li Qianjie was caught off guard and injured. He looked at the other party in shock and anger.

Just now, it happened in just a moment, and there was no time to react.

Qin Ming's Qingdi Dharma Eyes were able to clearly see the object that attacked Li Qianjie, which was a three-inch long black bone spur.

But this is not what he is most worried about right now.

"Humph! Human monks! You are so brave!"

"He actually sneaked into our clan's forbidden land and attempted to steal the Holy Fruit of the Heart."

"When I have survived the heavenly tribulation, I will let you know what it means to live a life worse than death!"

The Sea-Splitting Demon Saint, who was sitting cross-legged deep in the cave, glanced at the three of them with cold eyes, and immediately prepared to put away the spiritual fruits on the tree.

But at this moment.

Suddenly!

A sudden change occurred!

In the void near the center of the deep pool, a human figure vaguely appeared, like a transparent man, at a speed faster than lightning.

He actually got a step ahead of the Sea-Splitting Demon Lord and took out an ancient flower basket that seemed to be a special spiritual treasure. He actually put all the four spiritual fruits into it.
Then he flew away lightly.

When the Sea-Splitting Demon Saint saw this sudden change, his ferocious face was filled with shock and anger, but he did not dare to stand up and move because he was about to face the heavenly calamity.

He could only watch helplessly as the other party took the spiritual fruit away.

At this time, the three of them also saw clearly the person hiding in the air. He was able to avoid the detection of the spiritual thoughts of a late Nascent Soul cultivator. One could imagine how superb his magical powers were.

In the void ahead, a skinny middle-aged man in a black robe appeared. His aura fluctuated, hovering around the late Nascent Soul stage.

But the feeling this person gave Qin Ming and the other two was that they had the illusion that they were facing a powerful being in the Spirit Transformation Stage.

The skinny middle-aged man only glanced at the three people, and made them feel as if they were falling into an ice cellar.

Li Qianjie suffered a great loss at the hands of the Sea-Splitting Demon Saint, and hurriedly retreated back to Qin Ming and the others, not daring to face the unknown cultivator alone.

But the next moment, Xiao Xun seemed to recognize the person in front of him.

"Isn't this the Master Lingtao who disappeared hundreds of years ago? But he is clearly only in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, so how could he give us such a dangerous feeling? Could it be that he has secretly broken through the realm?" Xiao Xun was also terrified, with a look of doubt behind his veil.

If Qin Ming hadn't reminded me to retreat quickly, I would have been the one hit.

Qin Ming narrowed his eyes and secretly used the Green Emperor's Dharma Eyes to glance at Master Lingtao again, only to see that the Nascent Soul on the skinny middle-aged man's Purple Mansion Spirit Platform seemed to be occupied and controlled by another powerful soul.

"No! This person is no longer Master Lingtao. He seems to be controlled by a magical power similar to the devil's soul-retaining technique." Qin Ming saw through the trick at a glance.

Master Lingtao was about to flee after he succeeded. After hearing Qin Ming's words, he looked at him deeply and said, "Hehe! I didn't expect that there is someone who can see through my tricks."

“It’s so precious!”

The three of them were suddenly startled. Even a middle Nascent Soul cultivator could take over another's body at will. Perhaps only a Spirit Transformation cultivator could do that.

Boom Kaka!
The horrifying heavenly calamity tore open the dark sky, and a thick pillar of lightning flashed, interweaving into a dense silver lightning net, which slammed down towards the Chaoyin Cave where everyone was.

A natural tribulation of this magnitude would have even an Infant Soul in the late stage have to retreat away.

The possessed Master Ling Tao showed a strange smile, and then his figure blurred and disappeared from the spot. Qin Ming and the other two did not dare to stay here and get struck by lightning in vain.

They all displayed their magical powers and disappeared into Chaoyin Cave in an instant.

"Damn it! I'm so pissed off!"

The Sea-Splitting Monster Saint looked at the bare Heart-Seeking Fruit Tree and almost had his mind exploded.

This spiritual fruit ripens once every 5,000 years, and he had prepared it for use when he was about to reach the fifth level. However, someone got there first, right under his nose.

But it was too late to think about anything now. He hurriedly swallowed out a huge bone hammer and attacked the falling thunder!
All of a sudden.

The Chaoyin Cave suddenly became bright daylight.
……

Outside Keel Reef.

As the terrifying thunder tribulation of the fourth-stage late-stage great demon fell, none of the numerous demon beasts that were affected were spared and were directly turned into powder on the spot, leaving no residue behind.
For a while.

Affected by the Demon Saint's thunder tribulation, the two demon tribes that were still fighting were immediately frightened to death.
They each fled for their lives.

The Nine-Chi ancestor of the Blood Dragon Clan had lost his mind and was slaughtering the mermaids. After seeing the abnormal thunder tribulation, an extremely ugly look appeared on his face.

"How is it possible? This old fellow, Sea Splitter, is actually going to advance to the fourth level of perfection first!"

There was a hint of disbelief in his bloodthirsty and cruel vertical pupils.

If the other party really breaks through to the fourth level of perfection, the balance between the two races will be completely broken.

I am probably no match for him.

As the Nine-Chi Patriarch was thinking, he saw four beams of light from human cultivators shooting out in succession from the direction of Chaoyin Cave Heaven!

"Human Yuanying cultivator?!"

His expression was one of extreme shock, but then he thought of Long Ji's words and immediately understood everything.

In particular, he sensed the aura of his son's soul in Li Qianjie.

"Ah!! It's really the human race's fault! I will make sure you die miserably!"

Find out that you are being plotted against.

The Nine-Chi ancestor roared angrily and chased after the four people regardless of everything.

Long Ji of the mermaid tribe also had a complicated look on her face. She had just received a message from the old ancestor Lie Hai.

Upon learning that a major incident had occurred in Chaoyin Cave, the clan's holy fruit had actually been taken away by that human cultivator.

What surprised her even more was that some human beings had actually sneaked into the Dragon Bone Reef without anyone noticing.

And there were four of them at once.
The three human cultivators among them seemed to have a familiar aura to her, which meant that she had seen them in person, but they were just very well disguised.

Long Ji immediately transformed into a green rainbow and chased after the few people.

She sent a voice message to the Nine-Chi Ancestor: "Old Monster Nine-Chi, let's put aside our grudges for now. I believe you are clear about the cause and effect. Let's join forces to deal with these daring human Yuanying first."

"Okay!" The Nine-Chi Patriarch responded very concisely.

Then he called on the fourth-level demon saint of the Blood Dragon Clan to give chase.

Long Ji also summoned the two fourth-stage middle-stage mermaids to go together.

In the lightless sea.

Qin Ming and the other two followed closely behind Master Ling Tao. Li Qianjie chased after them and asked hesitantly:

"Fellow Daoist Qin, this person is controlled by a wisp of soul from a great master in the Spiritualization Stage. Should we still chase him? If we anger the person behind him, I'm afraid..."

"Of course I will chase him. I will kill anyone who dares to stand in my way to immortality!" Qin Ming replied concisely and clearly.

This statement came out.

Li Qianjie and Xiao Xun were also frightened.

It seems that this guy is truly daring. For the opportunity of becoming a god, he is not even afraid of the god-transforming master.
But now things are already halfway done, and it is impossible for the two of them to withdraw temporarily.

Thinking of this, Li Qianjie took out a pill and swallowed it, which barely stopped the injury. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to chase.

But as soon as their minds dispersed, they suddenly felt several powerful demon monks chasing after them.

The leader among them was the late fourth stage Nine-Chi ancestor.

"Humph! Where are you going to run?!"

"Prepare to die!"

next moment.

An extremely domineering demonic aura rose into the sky!

The Nine-Chi ancestor revealed his true form as a monster, a blood-red dragon nearly a thousand feet in size, with green flames coming out of his body. He instantly crossed a distance of hundreds of miles, and with his huge body, he stopped the fleeing people.

As everyone paused, the demons behind them soon caught up.

"Master Xiao, Fellow Daoist Li, I leave this beast and the pursuers behind him to you two. I, Qin, will deal with Master Lingtao." Qin Ming's telepathic voice instantly rang in the minds of the two.

Xiao Xun and Li Qianjie were not the kind of people who would shy away, so they nodded and agreed immediately.

Qin Ming immediately released the Sky-Devouring Rat to join the battle and delay the enemy for a while.

The Sky-Devouring Rat held a black steel fork and was wearing a five-colored banner. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Master. I can't beat the two big ones, but I can still handle the small ones."

After saying that, its figure disappeared and flew towards Xiao Xun and the others.
