Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1197: Chapter 1197: The Power of the Golden Snake Domain

Hmm?

Jiang Fan?

The Jiang Fan I’m looking for?

Soul Refining Venerable followed the Ice and Fire Demon Lord’s gaze and looked over, his face showing a faint smile. He shook his head and said:

"I won’t do it."

"Bai Qianhu, what about you?"

Bai Xin said expressionlessly, "The Great Wine Sacrifice didn’t ask me to record anything."

Jiang Fan shrugged and said, "Rest assured, Ice and Fire Demon Lord, none of us saw you hit the Soul Refining Venerable."

The Soul Refining Venerable was momentarily stunned.

Then his brows furrowed: "You are Jiang Fan?"

Only then did he realize it was Jiang Fan who had lured him into the Ice and Fire Demon Lord’s ambush.

"You tricked me!"

He exclaimed in anger, his demonic qi surging violently.

It turned out he had met Jiang Fan, the very person he was looking for, but not only failed to recognize him but was also completely fooled by him!

How could this be!

Jiang Fan calmly retorted, "If I didn’t trick you, should I have announced my name and let you kill me?"

While speaking, he took out two boxes of Mysterious Demon Liquid: "Your bribe, thanks."

"I’ll make good use of it."

This is truly a heart attack!

Soul Refining Venerable struck the ground, instantly moving to attack Jiang Fan!

His angry voice echoed in all directions: "You’re courting death!"

His speed was so fast that a Nascent Soul Realm person couldn’t possibly react.

Ice and Fire Demon Lord’s expression remained indifferent, as he flicked his fingers and a beam of intertwined ice and fire pierced through the void.

With a bang.

Soul Refining Venerable was knocked back, revealing his figure as he staggered and flew out of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

"Attacking someone right in front of me, you must not take me seriously."

Ice and Fire Demon Lord said indifferently.

Jiang Fan felt a tightness in his heart and said, "Senior, you can’t let him go!"

He had offended the Soul Refining Venerable to such an extent, there’s no chance for reconciliation.

If he let him go, it would be like letting a tiger return to the mountain.

He could come back to bite the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion at any time.

And the Ice and Fire Demon Lord was only temporarily recuperating in the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, inevitably leaving one day.

When that time comes, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion would be in danger.

The Ice and Fire Demon Lord remained silent.

This person was here for the blood coffin, naturally sent by the master of the blood coffin.

There’s no reason to let him return to report.

Therefore, he didn’t need Jiang Fan’s reminder; he had no intention of letting Soul Refining Venerable go.

"Tenfold Prison."

The Ice and Fire Demon Lord murmured coldly.

His Ice and Fire Domain fully unfolded!

The Ice and Fire Tai Chi Diagrams reappeared, but not just one, but hundreds of them.

They sealed off the sky and the earth.

A range of three miles around the Soul Refining Venerable was completely sealed.

Forming a hollow, three-dimensional Tai Chi Diagram cage.

Then, the cage rapidly contracted, intending to compress into a single point and crush the Soul Refining Venerable into fragments.

The Soul Refining Venerable’s face darkened.

In the past, the Ice and Fire Demon Lord’s Tenfold Prison had trapped and killed top-level domains during the Heavenly Human Five Declines!

Now, although his power was greatly diminished, it was not something that he, who hadn’t even started the Heavenly Person Decline, could contend with!

"Ice and Fire Demon Lord, do you know who you’re opposing?"

Soul Refining Venerable gritted his teeth and took out a stone tablet.

Inserting it in front of him.

The stone tablet had three engraved words.

"Do Not Kill."

Within the engravings, a majestic force, similar to the Confucian ’Words and Laws Follow’ but more binding, flowed.

Just three words carried an air of dominance, coldness, and indisputability.

The rapidly compressing cage shattered on the spot, unresponsive to the Ice and Fire Demon Lord’s control.

The Ice and Fire Demon Lord trembled slightly, his face showing a heavy expression.

"Sage’s Engraving?"

Soul Refining Venerable seized the opportunity to escape without hesitation.

Before leaving, he glanced at the gradually shattering stone tablet, showing a pained expression.

He viciously glared at Jiang Fan and said, "Brat, you destroyed my life-saving magical treasure!"

"This hatred, I shall never coexist peacefully with you!"

Jiang Fan felt a chill in his heart.

He had thought about the Soul Refining Venerable, since supported by the Great Sage Realm’s Asura Saint Son, wouldn’t be so easily eliminated.

But he didn’t expect him to carry such domineering items with him!

If Soul Refining Venerable left and reported this matter back to the Asura Saint Son.

Wouldn’t he end up being targeted by the Asura Saint Son?

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but shiver!

He mustn’t let him escape!

At least not let him convey the situation here back!

In an instant, his mind turned.

He decisively activated the Golden Snake Pattern on his brow!

Whoosh!

A golden serpent-like lightning instantly caught up with the Soul Refining Venerable.

The Soul Refining Venerable, who had already disappeared from sight through Instantaneous Movement, suddenly exclaimed.

"Golden Snake Saint Mother’s Puppet Domain?"

"How is it in your hands!"

"No... put it away..."

Soul Refining Venerable suddenly felt a fogginess invade his consciousness, as a golden serpent shadow coiled within his mind.

Gradually suppressing his true consciousness.

Realizing the peril, he decisively extracted a luxurious beast hide.

There was also Sage’s Engraving on top of it.

Jiang Fan had painstakingly used the Golden Snake Pattern once; how could he let him escape again.

Without hesitation, he activated the Void Fishing Rod, hooking it away before it could unfold the beast hide.

"My Sage’s Engraving!"

Soul Refining Venerable shouted in rage, before his consciousness was suppressed.

"No... I cannot become your puppet..."

In this critical moment, he spat out blood from his mouth.

The blood mixed with demonic qi, coalescing into a pair of wings that lifted him away from the original spot using Instantaneous Movement.

Jiang Fan had just established a link through the Golden Snake Domain within the Soul Refining Venerable’s soul to control the puppet.

In the next instant, he lost control due to the increased distance.

This made Jiang Fan so annoyed that he stomped his foot.

Just a bit more, and he could have controlled a Divinity Transformation Realm puppet!

But this scene, happening in a blink of an eye, greatly surprised the Ice and Fire Demon Lord:

"You actually have a domain granted by the Golden Snake Saint Mother!"

Jiang Fan replied with a darkened face: "Wasted a domain for nothing!"

This statement made the Ice and Fire Demon Lord a bit embarrassed.

Luckily, the Soul Refining Venerable escaped; had Jiang Fan succeeded.

Where would he, the Ice and Fire Demon Lord, place his face?

"Ahem, a Venerate backing a Great Sage, you drove him to this level, you’re truly unmatched."

"Besides, the domain you received from the Golden Snake Saint Mother is but a wisp."

"Controlling a Nascent Soul Realm as a puppet is easy, but attempting to control a Divinity Transformation Realm is unrealistic."

Jiang Fan actually understood this reasoning too.

The Golden Snake Saint Mother had been dead for many years, the remaining domain was less than one percent of its peak state.

How could it control a Divinity Transformation Realm of the same realm?

He was just worried.

"If he informs that Sage, it would be trouble." Jiang Fan said gravely.

The Ice and Fire Demon Lord was equally worried, pondering: "For now, he won’t."

"Clearing the Golden Snake Saint Mother’s domain from his soul will take considerable time."

"At present, he has no time to consider other matters."

Saying this, his eyes narrowed, a cold light spread:

"However, I won’t give him time!"

"Kid, I am going to hunt this vile creature, to permanently eliminate any future troubles."

"You, members of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, take care of yourselves."

He had already acted against the Soul Refining Venerable, inadvertently offending the Sage behind him.

It was no longer possible to remain uninvolved.

Jiang Fan’s heart tightened; if the Ice and Fire Demon Lord left, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion would be unprotected.

But he also knew that the Soul Refining Venerable was the real threat.

He could only nod and say: "Senior, take care. If you get injured, please return to the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, I will do my best to heal you."

Feeling Jiang Fan’s goodwill, the Ice and Fire Demon Lord smiled.

Flicking his fingers, he shot the Sky-Burning Clam Pearl from his shoulder downward.

"Leave this pearl in your Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion for those Demon Emperors to use."

"It can help them advance to the mid-stage Demon Emperor."

Jiang Fan’s face lit up with joy.

The Sky Demon Emperor had originally sent the Blood Flood Dragon and Sea Charm to await the descent of the Sky-Burning Clam Pearl.

Because it could help them break through to the mid-stage Demon Emperor.

"Also, let me take a look at that beast hide of yours."

"There seems to be Sage’s Engraving on it too!"

"You might have stumbled upon some top-level treasure!"
