In the mysterious plane, a giant serpent with divinity was struggling in its death throes.
In the sky above it, Wu Ming sat upright and motionless. Wisps of clear light continuously fell down and sprinkled down. It was light and languid, but it carried an unparalleled power as it gradually disintegrated the divinity and true body of the giant snake.
"Hiss!"
As the clear light gradually became thicker, the golden divinity on the giant serpent's body became weaker and weaker, and it let out a rapid hiss.
"Sure enough … it's already a beast?"
Wu Ming sighed. Auspicious clouds appeared above his head, and a great pressure suddenly fell, causing the speed of the divinity to disappear even faster.
"Your true body is already dead, and the existence of an incarnation is a great distortion and mistake! Now, it's time to correct everything … "
Rumble!
As soon as his voice fell, the clear light finally broke through the divinity's defense, and the giant serpent's true body slowly melted.
"The blood of my blood shall never die …"
In its final moments, the madness and bestiality in the giant serpent's eyes gradually faded along with the dissipation of the divinity in its blood. The giant serpent raised its eyes and spoke loudly in an ancient language.
The more ancient the language, the closer it was to the rules and the sound of the Great Dao, so people could understand the meaning at a glance.
"Never die?"
Wu Ming's expression was solemn, but there was no sadness or joy in his eyes. With a wave of his hand, the giant serpent's final torso turned into ashes.
"Apart from eternity, is there anything in this world that is immortal?"
He sighed faintly, and then looked at the place where the black serpent had turned into ashes. "The power of a level-nine is actually so incredible?"
This incarnation of the Infinite Serpent had only been swept by the aftermath of the battle, and it had already fallen into such a miserable state. Even the wounds on its body had not healed until now, which really made Wu Ming tremble with fear.
"This incarnation should have still been rational, but it was seriously injured, and it was sealed in this plane, so it could only wait for death …"
Wu Ming slowly deduced the course of the snake monster's life.
As the clone of a level-eight almighty, after experiencing the destruction of the Infinite Serpent, it was also heavily injured and fell into this barren plane, unable to leave.
In order to recover as soon as possible, the Coiled Serpent had the idea of offering sacrifices. It barely communicated with the main world and contacted the ancestors of the Black Serpent and the others, hoping to obtain faith and sacrifices so that it could escape its predicament through the path of godhood.
Unfortunately, it had overestimated itself.
The heavy injuries of a level-nine almighty being, coupled with the absorption of too many negative emotions that were bloody and brutal, caused the divinity that it had condensed to be filled with chaos. In the end, it even completely overwhelmed the rationality in its heart, turning it into an evil creature that only knew how to ask for blood sacrifices.
"Even though he's a grade-8 cultivator, he still ended up like this. How lamentable …"
This incident was even more shocking to Wu Ming, causing him to not dare to slack off in the slightest. "Even the Infinite Serpent has fallen. What right do I have to laugh at the world?"
Disregarding everything else, just the fact that the level 8 Ouroboros was a mortal enemy, or the reappearance of its bloodline ancestor, the current Wu Ming didn't have the slightest confidence in dealing with them.
"A level-eight Grand Luo isn't a level-nine Origin Immemorial after all. It's practically omniscient and omnipotent."
Wu Ming arrived at the bottom of the giant crater.
At this moment, the original Coiled Serpent had completely disappeared. Everything had been completely erased from this plane, leaving not a single trace behind.
"For example … I don't know the secrets of this plane …"
Wu Ming looked at the dark red sky, the dry and cracked land without the slightest bit of vitality, and sighed.
"Why is there a plane like this above the main world?"
As Wu Ming pondered, a layer of clear light sprinkled all around him and seeped into the void, as if trying to trace the origin of this plane's birth.
Ordinary demiplanes naturally wouldn't show such characteristics. It must have been affected by something.
Soon, a vast and desolate piece of information was captured by Wu Ming, and his mind trembled violently. "This feeling …"
"If my guess isn't wrong, this main world might have a 'dark side', or an 'inner world'. After all, where there's light, there's darkness. This is common sense!"
In reality, even the Seer Continent that he had previously controlled also had an inner plane.
Some excessively powerful Extraordinaires, especially newly born gods, would be completely banished into the inner world, which was equivalent to being sealed.
Back then, Wu Ming had once gone deep into the inner plane after mastering his divine arts and killed a new god that had risen by stealing the faith of the church.
What kind of existence would be sealed in the dark side of this main world?
"True gods can appear, so I can rule out the possibility that it might be an Abomination of Gods, or an evil creature that survived from ancient times?"
Wu Ming guessed, "This plane had once been contaminated by the inner world, which is why it has such a strange characteristic!"
He looked at the Void, his eyes filled with eagerness, but he soon gave up on the idea.
"Although it's not impossible to use this plane as a springboard to venture deep into the inner world, it's too dangerous … The unknown is the scariest, and it's best not to venture deep alone before getting a clear picture … At the very least, I can send a bunch of cannon fodder to their deaths, and plan slowly!"
If the main world was the bright side of the world, the inner world was the dark side. Even the most basic rules of the Great Dao could change, and the place would be grotesque and bizarre.
Although the inner world would not be able to stop Wu Ming's footsteps with the power of a Grand Luo, the danger was still considerable.
"The gods of this world should have information regarding the exploration of that place …"
Wu Ming stroked his chin. "Looks like it's time to pay a visit to some of them."
If the inner world was so easy to deal with, wouldn't it have long been flattened with the terrifying number of Golden Immortals and Grand Luo in the main world?
There must have been some extremely difficult obstacles that allowed it to survive until now.
… …
"Master!"
When Wu Ming returned to the main world and walked out of the secret chamber, he found that Crazy and Atticus were already waiting for him, with extremely complicated expressions on their faces.
"Oh? What's the matter? "
Wu Ming raised an eyebrow.
"It's like this, Great Master …"
Atticus took a deep breath. This new earl was extremely humble in front of Wu Ming. "Several of the backbones in our organization can no longer feel the presence of the false god …" Atticus took a deep breath.
The foundation of the Ouroboros Clan was the Ouroboros Serpent that was struggling at death's door. When Wu Ming got rid of it, the people in the organization immediately noticed that something was wrong.
"Did you notice?"
Wu Ming nodded indifferently. "That's right, I've found the location of the false god and completely destroyed him. From today onwards, you can serve me wholeheartedly!"
"Master!"
Crazy was overjoyed. She and the trembling Atticus immediately knelt down and sang, "You are the source of our bloodline, the destination of everything! … "
Atticus, in particular, had been half-hearted before, but now he had no way out.
After all, he had no idea where else to find another Ouroboros Serpent other than the one in front of him. Moreover, the maintenance of the bloodline families was completely at Atticus' whim.
If Wu Ming was willing to bestow a drop of his pure blood, it wouldn't be a problem to promote a member of the Ouroboros Clan to a second-generation divine descendant or a pure-blooded giant serpent.
On the contrary, if he deliberately suppressed the power of their bloodline, these families that were too deeply influenced by the Ouroboros Clan would slowly wither away.
This was the absolute control that the source of the bloodline had over his subordinates! In Wu Ming's opinion, this was more effective than any slave contract.
"Very good! How's the progress on the information and history books I asked you to gather? "
Wu Ming asked.
"Great Supreme Master, I've done everything you asked for."
As an Earl and the leader of the Ouroboros Clan, the amount of manpower and resources that Atticus could mobilize was astonishing. Trivial matters were handled quickly and easily.
"Information about the geography of the Origin World, the distribution of the Eastern and Western Continents, as well as the habits and characteristics of the various races … I've made copies of everything that can be found!"
A bitter smile appeared on Atticus's face. "But Master, compared to the entire world, the Eastern and Western Continents of the human race are only a small piece, so there might be some flaws and omissions …"
"Of course I know that, as long as it's not too ridiculous."
Wu Ming waved his hand.
To be honest, the fact that his subordinates could do this was already beyond his expectations.
But at this moment, he was equivalent to an emperor in the entire Black Forest Castle. Towards Atticus's efforts, he only nodded his head casually and didn't even say a word of praise. This was enough to make Atticus beam with joy. Chris, who was beside him, was even more envious.
After a sumptuous dinner with the goal of satisfying his appetite, Wu Ming returned to his bedroom and quietly flipped through the information under the light of the magic lamp.
Creak!
The door was pushed open, and Chris quietly ran in.
At this time, she had obviously dressed up carefully. She was only wearing a light muslin, and her beautiful figure was faintly discernible. Her two thighs in silk stockings were even more unscrupulously exposed.
"What's wrong?"
Wu Ming looked up and asked casually.
"That guy Atticus, he actually prepared a few crude country girls to serve Master!"
Chris said indignantly, "Do they think they can get Master's favor? Dream on! He's already driven them away! "
Wu Ming was a little speechless when he heard this.
He naturally knew the temptation of his bloodline to the descendants of the Ouroboros. If he could leave behind an heir, perhaps it would be enough to create a true god in the future!
Of course, he didn't have to do that, and Atticus didn't dare to let his imagination run wild. At most, he just wanted to serve Lin Li with beauties to please him.
Unfortunately, even so, he had stepped on the tail of a certain kitten.
"Are you doing this to make amends with yourself?"
Wu Ming raised his chin. "Come here!"
