283: Section 283

"Yan Clan... greets... my Lord..." The phantom knelt on the ground, trembling as he spoke.

His originally blurry figure gradually solidified.

Su Zhou finally saw the fellow in front of him clearly.

Its figure was similar to the Human Race, but it had four arms, its entire body was dark purple, and its face had no eyes, but it did have two mouths.

Deep brown patterns intricately wound across its body, as if imbued with some inexplicable power.

That power was not yet fully formed, still somewhat nascent; this was clearly a newborn taboo of a clan.

Su Zhou took a step forward, casually stepping on the head of this taboo.

However, facing such an insult, the taboo, which called itself Yan, showed no resistance whatsoever, even bearing a hint of honor on its face.

"Tell me, how did you, this lowly thing, come into being?"

Su Zhou's voice carried a hint of interest.

The secrets within this Deathly Silent Forbidden Zone were clearly more numerous than he had imagined.

"Yes... my Lord..." Yan said with utmost reverence.

In its eyes, Su Zhou was not of the Human Race, but a taboo of the same Origin as itself, yet an existence infinitely more powerful.

If it was a shallow pond, then this Lord before it was an abyss that devoured everything.

Therefore, it dared not conceal anything whatsoever.

For the taboo clan, hierarchy was insurmountable.

The incense burner in Su Zhou's hand was a Treasure Artifact refined by Su Changsheng using the flesh and blood of the taboo clan.

Injecting Dao could evoke taboo Qi, and Su Zhou wielded the Three Thousand Dao; after he injected his Qi, the rank it reflected already surpassed Mo and Xu.

In the eyes of Yan, this newborn taboo race, he naturally appeared like a god, like a Dominator.

"I am a race born within the Divine Heart; after my predecessor was extinguished, it influenced the Divine Heart..."

Under Yan's narration, Su Zhou understood the Origin of its birth.

Back then, after Master Ascends to Heaven, a taboo was captured by the Five Sovereigns and brought to the Deathly Silent Forbidden Zone, where it was loathed by the Divine Heart and annihilated.

And the characteristic of this race was that after death, it could influence its surroundings, causing nearby things to be imbued with its will and become new taboos.

And although the Divine Heart was a Divine object, it had been Seal for too long, thus it was still contaminated by this taboo.

The Five Sovereigns only thought that these black mists were the only change born from the taboo's influence.

But they were wrong; the ultimate means of that taboo was actually to create new taboos!

It only occupied an insignificant drop of blood within the Divine Heart, but relying on the Divine Blood, it was enough to give birth to a completely new taboo.

And the birth of the Yan Clan, and its characteristic of liking to talk to itself, was entirely influenced by the Divine Heart and the Five Sovereigns.

In the long solitude, even they needed language to become a flame.

And Yan inherited its characteristic.

"The birth of a taboo will be influenced by the race it interacts with at the very beginning of its birth..." Su Zhou's eyes slightly lowered, beginning to understand the characteristics of these things.

"What is your mission?"

Su Zhou knew that these fellows had always been operating under the premise of so-called missions.

"I... I don't know... I am not a direct race, I am a derived Dao Clan, my existence..."

A hint of confusion appeared in Yan's eyes.

It had no so-called mission; its former persistence was merely the obsession of its predecessor taboo, and only when Su Zhou asked this question did it realize.

It turned out that it had no so-called mission.

It was merely a creature born in 'error'.

"Dao Clan..." Su Zhou softly murmured, realizing that these taboo fellows called themselves the Dao Clan.

Su Zhou could vaguely confirm that the existences that created these fellows were those figures residing above the Great Dao, who regarded all living beings as blood food.

But these fellows had no memory of their masters, only a blurry Chaos, which Su Changsheng had researched for so long without being able to see.

And Su Zhou possessed The Eyes of Heavens; he could see a faint connection between these taboo races and the Great Dao.

But he couldn't see it clearly; above destiny, it seemed as if some dust had stained it.

"Thus... your mission is to submit to me!"

Su Zhou looked at the confused taboo race, a hint of interest appearing in his eyes.

Su Changsheng had been researching taboos all these years; having a taboo that could communicate would surely allow that boy's research to become more thorough.

Su Zhou casually glanced at Yan, and then an inexplicable force instantly pressed into Yan's core.

If Yan made any unusual move, Su Zhou could obliterate it in an instant.

"Yes!! My Lord!!" The confused Yan instantly ceased to be confused after hearing Su Zhou's words.

Since it had no mission, then it would carry out the Lord's mission... anyway, everything was for the master!

Hmm??

What kind of master was it?

Yan only felt that it could not imagine the master that its predecessor had fanatically worshipped since its birth.

But in its heart, Su Zhou's image became increasingly profound and clear.

As if its entire being should submit to Su Zhou.

"So... the master is the Lord..." Yan's second mouth spoke in a daze, but the voice from that mouth did not exist in this world.

It seemed to be connected to some inexplicable existence...

Even Su Zhou was unaware of this change.

At this moment, Su Zhou retracted his gaze and looked at the black mist drifting around and the boundless Deathly Silent Forbidden Zone.

The Xu, once the battleground of Great Emperors, had lost its former glory after countless years of tempering and the absence of tempering from supreme experts.

He overlooked the entire Forbidden Zone.

"The Deathly Silent Forbidden Zone is actually just a Puppet of the true Forbidden Zone; it seems this world is more interesting than I thought..."

"taboo, above the Great Dao, Innate Divine, vanished Great Emperors, Ancient One, Forbidden Zone..."

Su Zhou muttered softly.

The Deathly Silent Forbidden Zone, which made all living beings breathless, now seemed so uninteresting and minuscule in his eyes.

It was casually trampled under his feet.

He turned around with a hint of boredom, casually setting up a barrier around Su Huangquan.

Su Huangquan had gained a lot this time: the corpses of three One-Step Dao Lords, the corpse of a Two-Step Dao Lord, plus the power within the Divine Heart.

These powers would be enough for Su Huangquan to absorb for a very, very long time.

When he awakened again, his Realm and strength would inevitably reach a terrifying level.

"Ding!!! The Tenth Sequence Su Ming's transformation is complete!!"

"Ding!! The Seventh Sequence Su Huangquan has obtained a heaven-defying good fortune, prematurely included in the evaluation..."

"Ding!! All Ten Great Sequences of the Su Family are in place, System integrating..."

"Ding!!! Congratulations to the host for completing the Family mission! The evaluation for this mission is: Black Grade!!"

At the same time, a series of notification sounds rang in Su Zhou's ears.

It seemed that Su Ming, who had been engrossed in comprehension, had awakened.

The mission of the Ten Great Sequences, which had appeared very early on, was finally completed.

Moreover, an astonishing Black Grade evaluation had appeared!

One must know that Su Zhou had completed so many Family missions, yet he had never received any Black Grade reward before.

This couldn't help but make Su Zhou let out a slight chuckle.

The notification sounds in his ears swept over like a tide.

"Ding!! Congratulations to the host for receiving a reward!!

Family Saint Body birth rate +10

Family Immortal Body birth rate +10

Family Divine Body birth rate +5

Family taboo Body birth rate +1"

"Ding!! Congratulations to the host for receiving a reward: Life Sea Sendai!!"

"Life Sea Sendai: An Ancient Chaos Innate Divine object. The Divine Sea contains countless great powers, and the Sendai holds the creation of heaven and earth. Crossing the Divine Sea and stepping onto the Sendai can temper Qi and blood, True Essence, and improve all Aptitude!!"

"Ding!! Congratulations to the host for receiving a reward: Hand of the Dao!"

"Hand of the Dao: A mysterious expert from an unknown era once battled the Great Dao, ultimately annihilating the will of an Origin Great Dao and tearing off its Hand of the Dao. After Fusion, it can grant the host the power of the Dao Hand, with heaven and earth in its palm, mysterious and unfathomable."
