455: Candle Dragon Demon Ancestor

Finally, several Giants also exploded simultaneously, and crimson blood mist permeated, quickly converging towards the Origin light cluster in front of the Merfolk Ancestor.

A moment later, an Origin light cluster, significantly larger, appeared in the Merfolk Ancestor's hand.

It was condensed from the Origin power of ten Giant powerhouses, containing immense and terrifying energy.

For her, it was definitely a great tonic.

About half an hour passed.

After the Merfolk Ancestor absorbed the Origin light cluster in her hand, her aura noticeably strengthened.

She raised her eyes and surveyed her surroundings, taking in the entire Nine Abyss Sea Realm at a glance.

Immediately after, her figure flickered, instantly disappearing from her original spot.

Whoosh!

When she reappeared, she was already in the Shark-Human Race's Ancestral Sea.

This was a vast and unfathomable sea abyss, no less than the Gui Xu Abyss, extremely boundless. It was the convergence point of several giant sea veins, and the energy was extremely dense. Most of the Shark-Human Race's powerhouses resided here.

Although there were no Giant powerhouses present now, there were many Dao Venerable and Demon Emperor powerhouses, and the number of Shark-People below the Demon Emperor Realm was enormous, even overflowing.

These were all resources; they could not be wasted.

Bang, bang—!

The Merfolk Ancestor's gaze swept across the entire sea abyss. With a single thought, countless Shark-People exploded into blood mist, quickly converging towards her.

Whether they were Dao Venerables of the Shark-Human Race or ordinary Shark-People powerhouses, as long as they possessed True Immortal Rank cultivation, none could escape the fate of exploding into blood mist.

Terror quickly spread throughout the entire Shark-Human Race. Some Shark-People powerhouses still wanted to resist, but facing a Dominator, all resistance was merely a mantis trying to stop a chariot, a dying struggle.

Wails and screams continued for nearly fifteen minutes before subsiding. All Shark-People above the True Immortal Rank within the sea abyss had disappeared.

They transformed into a giant energy light cluster, appearing before the Merfolk Ancestor, emitting a crimson blood light.

The remaining ordinary Shark-People trembled with fear, huddling their bodies and not daring to make a sound.

Afterward, the Merfolk Ancestor followed suit, eliminating all powerhouses above the True Immortal Realm from the Jiaolong Clan, Sea Rakshasa, and several other Sea Demon races.

Billions of powerful beings, including dozens of Dao Venerable-level powerhouses, ultimately condensed into an energy light cluster the size of a human head. The energy contained within it couldn't even compare to the Origin of an ancient Giant.

The quality was even more vastly different.

This also showed the chasm-like huge difference between different Realms.

However, it was better than nothing. The Merfolk Ancestor spent some time absorbing and refining it.

In reality, the energy contained within was not small; it was just inferior to the Origin of an ancient Giant. After all, it was energy condensed from billions of powerful beings. If it were replaced with resources containing the same energy, even some powerful forces with a Dominator presiding would find it difficult to produce.

After dealing with these races, the Merfolk Ancestor flashed back to the Gui Xu Abyss.

The Merfolk Race immediately erupted in a deafening cheer.

"Congratulations, Ancestor, on your Ascension to Dominator!"

A Merfolk Dao Venerable shouted excitedly, leading a group of Merfolk Race powerhouses to prostrate themselves as if on a pilgrimage.

Every Merfolk's face was filled with excitement and thrill. With their Ancestor ascending to Dominator, their Merfolk Race was bound to prosper greatly, and dominating the Nine Abyss Sea Realm was just around the corner.

If a few more Giant powerhouses appeared, they would have a place in the entire Nine Heavens in the future.

However, compared to their excitement and thrill, the Merfolk Ancestor's expression remained unchanged, with no extra emotion in her eyes.

Whoosh!

She glanced at the dense crowd of Merfolk people in front of her. Without speaking, she waved her hand and threw out several gigantic treasure troves, along with a large amount of resources and treasures, all of which were plundered from those races.

The next moment, she appeared before Wu Ning.

"Senior."

Wu Ning immediately cupped his hands in greeting. Although he could feel that she had no ill intentions, his heart was still on high alert, and he was ready to unleash the Other Shore Boat at any moment.

Facing a Dominator, no amount of caution was too much.

The Merfolk Ancestor looked at Wu Ning's face, a ripple of emotion flashing in her eyes. Her lips moved slightly, as if she was about to say something.

But just then, she suddenly looked up at the sky.

"Time's up..."

She only glanced up before immediately retracting her gaze, looking back at Wu Ning, and softly said, "There will be a powerful enemy attacking soon. Find an opportunity to leave this Realm. If possible, take some Merfolk with you."

Whoosh!

She raised her hand and took out a mass of crimson liquid, along with several drops of blue-gold essence blood. "These are some Giant essence blood, and a few drops of my Dominator essence blood. Consider it your reward."

"Senior, are you Mi Sheng?" Wu Ning stared into her eyes, frowning as he asked.

"Mi Sheng... that was me in my youth."

A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face, and her figure instantly vanished from her original spot.

Wu Ning put away the essence blood, his gaze following her figure as he looked up at the sky.

An unprecedentedly terrifying aura descended from beyond the Nine Heavens, instantly pervading the entire Nine Abyss Sea Realm.

Even the aura emitted by the Merfolk Ancestor after her Ascension to Dominator was far inferior.

Suddenly.

Wu Ning's pupils constricted sharply. He saw a pair of crimson-gold giant eyes appear outside the sky, pressed tightly against the world barrier, like two immensely vast and brilliant suns hanging high in the firmament, emitting an unseeable light that illuminated the entire vast world.

Within that pair of crimson-gold giant eyes, there was supreme majesty and indifference that looked down on all living beings.

A single glance made one feel a reverence originating from the depths of their Soul, and all other thoughts vanished from their mind.

For the first time, Wu Ning felt an insurmountable feeling in his heart, like a Mortal looking up at an Immortal God—that feeling of being high above, where even if one tried everything, they could not shake it in the slightest.

He quickly shook his head, casting aside the distracting thoughts in his mind.

Such thoughts were undesirable; if not cleared in time, they might become an obstacle to future advancement.

"Is this the power of a Great Lord...?"

Wu Ning's eyes were extremely solemn.

"Candle Dragon Demon Ancestor, so it was you."

The Merfolk Ancestor's figure appeared above the sky, looking at the pair of crimson-gold giant eyes outside the sky, her eyes filled with coldness.

The giant eyes outside the sky fixed their gaze on her.

Boom—!!

With a loud bang, the entire Nine Abyss Sea Realm shook violently. Countless living beings looked up in horror, only to see an impossibly vast crimson giant claw pierce a large hole in the world barrier, reaching in from beyond the Nine Heavens.

The giant claw covered the sky and the sun, carrying terrifying power that could easily tear the entire world apart. With an extremely terrifying speed, it fiercely grabbed towards the Merfolk Ancestor.

Seeing this scene, countless Merfolk in the Gui Xu Abyss were scared out of their wits, terrified beyond measure.

"Hurry and go!"

A urging voice rang in Wu Ning's mind.

The Merfolk Ancestor unleashed the supreme treasure, Cang Hai, Bright Moon Pearl. As she ascended to Dominator, this Innate supreme treasure also grew stronger.

She directly refined it with her essence blood, fully activating the power of the Cang Hai, Bright Moon Pearl, and fiercely blasted it towards the sky-covering giant claw.
