390: Manipulating taboos, each with their own thoughts

"Hm?!" Blood Heaven was startled, blood-red light surged around his body, and several drops of blood emitting terrifying destructive aura instantly floated at his fingertips. He thought it was the powerful individual, suspected to be the Source Master, who still had a trump card.

"Old Ancestor, wait!" Xiao Zhuo's Main Body opened his eyes, which gleamed with sharp light, and immediately spoke to stop him. Through the feedback from his Divine Soul Clone, he had already grasped the crucial point. "It's this crystal! It can control these Taboo Power, and it's drawing them back!"

"What?!" Blood Heaven's expression changed drastically, the few drops of blood at his fingertips trembled violently, and a nearly materialized killing intent and greed erupted from his eyes like a volcano!

Controlling Taboo Power!

These few short words, like the most potent poison, instantly ignited all the desires in Blood Heaven's heart!

This was no longer just a precious origin supreme treasure; this was a Heaven-Defying Opportunity capable of subverting cognition and controlling taboos!

If he could obtain it, his perils in this realm would turn into a smooth path, and even... in the outside world, he would possess unimaginable trump cards!

Blood Heaven's crimson robes flapped without wind, rustling loudly.

The subtle cooperative relationship between him and Xiao Zhuo was on the verge of Shattered Realm at this moment!

The air seemed to solidify, filled with suffocating killing intent.

Xiao Zhuo remained outwardly calm, but the Zizai Immortal Power within him had already quietly circulated to its Peak, firmly locking onto every subtle movement of Blood Heaven.

The jade blood saber also floated beside him. Although it was not unsheathed, the sharp intent to cut down everything was faintly emanating from his body.

He sneered inwardly, having long been wary of this old demon's covetousness.

In this Dark Realm, which isolated the Dao, he was confident he could suppress the opponent, but Old Ancestor Blood Heaven was treacherous and unfathomable, and deeply connected to the Blood Demon Realm. If he couldn't kill him in one blow, the repercussions would be endless.

His Disciple and subordinate were still in the Blood Demon Realm... Unless absolutely necessary, it was not advisable to completely fall out.

The air between them seemed to solidify, and time itself seemed to stop for a few breaths.

Finally, the surging blood sea in Blood Heaven's eyes slowly calmed, and the violent aura around him receded like a tide.

He took a deep breath, his slender fingers relaxed, and the few drops of blood silently disappeared.

However, the gaze he directed at Xiao Zhuo became even more profound and inscrutable, like a giant beast lurking in the abyss.

Xiao Zhuo also slightly relaxed his tense nerves, but the vigilance in his heart did not diminish in the slightest.

That momentary killing intent just now was definitely not an illusion.

This old demon must have harbored murderous thoughts towards him just now!

Cooperation?

It was merely mutual utilization.

And in this brief standoff and calculation, the innate divine patterns within the crystal had been initially comprehended by Xiao Zhuo's Divine Soul Clone, and a Divine Ability called 'Heart of Taboo' appeared in his panel.

Xiao Zhuo unhesitatingly consumed Attribute Points to comprehend it, and in an instant, he comprehended it to Perfection!

With a thought, he formed eighty-one profound hand seals in front of him, completely different from the Immortal-Demon Realm's magic techniques!

The hand seals activated the power of the divine patterns at the core of the crystal.

"Gather!"

The Taboo Power, hovering above their heads like a vast nebula, instantly found its way back like a swarm of bees returning to their nest, transforming into an enormous, pitch-black torrent that, with a heart-palpitating roar, surged madly into the dark blue crystal floating in Xiao Zhuo's palm!

In the blink of an eye, the vast Taboo Power that once constituted billions of terrifying titans had been completely sealed within this small crystal!

The surface of the crystal glowed, its dark blue color seeming even deeper and more restrained, faintly exuding a terrifying pressure that could silence all things.

Xiao Zhuo raised his hand, and the crystal flew back into his palm.

He felt the power contained within it, enough to destroy heaven and earth.

"Light and darkness, two extremes; creation and destruction, at will." His gaze was profound as he murmured, "From now on, I shall call you the two extremes crystal!"

With a thought, he placed the two extremes crystal into his storage ring.

This item contained a massive amount of Taboo Power, and its nature was treacherous and unpredictable. He dared not risk placing it in his zizai world, lest it trigger unforeseen changes.

"Xiao Zhuo!" Blood Heaven suppressed his turbulent emotions, his voice returning to its usual hoarseness, but the trace of burning heat deep in his eyes could not be completely concealed. "That person just now must be the so-called 'Source Master' of this realm! His Clone was jointly destroyed by you and me, and his Main Body must have suffered severe backlash! Now is the best time to strike him while he's down, to take his life, and seize the Origin of this realm! Since you have this crystal, you should be able to sense where the Origin is!"

"Old Ancestor's words align perfectly with my intentions!" Xiao Zhuo smiled faintly, his smile imbued with absolute confidence and a sense of control.

A very faint, invisible force field, emanating from the two extremes crystal, naturally appeared around him, silently absorbing the sparse Taboo Power remaining in the Void Realm.

He said no more, his figure transforming into a brilliant stream of light that tore through the Void Realm, shooting forward first!

"I have sensed the Origin's location! Follow me!"

His voice still echoed in Blood Heaven's ears, but the stream of light had already darted a hundred miles away!

A bloody gleam flashed in Blood Heaven's eyes, and he unhesitatingly transformed into a crimson blood rainbow, following closely.

He keenly noticed that when he followed near Xiao Zhuo, the omnipresent and constantly eroding Taboo Power was significantly weakened!

This made his heart feel as if it were being scratched by a hundred claws; his craving for the two extremes crystal almost burst forth from his body!

But he forcibly restrained himself.

The time was not yet ripe! This child was like a fish in water in the Dark Realm, and his combat power was still above his own. If he were to turn hostile now, the chances of victory were slim.

Moreover, that remaining Origin... that was his true goal for this trip!

Once he seized the Origin and completely stabilized the Blood Demon Realm's status... a coldly calculating glint flashed in Blood Heaven's eyes.

The two no longer had any reservations, streaking like lightning through the barren Void Realm of the Void Holy Realm, drawing two breathtaking long rainbows.

The scattered Demon Race or Angel Race descendants they encountered along the way, sensing the terrifying aura emanating from the two long rainbows, all retreated in fright, not daring to offer the slightest obstruction.

The only threat in this realm—the "Source Master"—had his powerful Clone destroyed, and his Main Body was certainly injured.

If not now, when would be the time to strike him while he was down?

Three hours later.

Two streaks of light, one golden and one red, that tore through the sky, suddenly decelerated after traversing countless thousands of miles of dead Star Domain.

Ten thousand miles away, an indescribably magnificent sight crashed into their vision!

A city! A gigantic city, floating in the endless Void Realm, so massive it defied comprehension!

Its scale was vastly greater, more than a thousand times larger than the Void Realm city they had seen when they captured the Demon God King!

The pitch-black city walls, forged from an unknown divine metal, rose towering into the "sky" (if the Void Realm had a ceiling, at least beyond the visible horizon), stretching endlessly, like an ancient mountain range spanning the Universe.

The architecture within the city was strange yet sacred, with countless spires, grand temples, and numerous runes flickering on the surfaces of the colossal buildings.

The entire giant city exuded an ancient, desolate aura, like a sleeping ancient giant god, quietly floating in the Void Realm.

Xiao Zhuo could sense that the Origin of this realm must be hidden within this city.

However, tens of thousands of miles from this giant city, both of them stopped simultaneously, exchanging glances, their eyes filled with solemnity.
