Chapter 5479: Extraterrestrial Transcendent Creatures

According to the old man's narrative, for the next few million years, his descendants continued to multiply, but the situation of mutual slaughter never changed.

Gradually, the old man also came to terms with it, knowing that the curse from the Fire Lizard could not be changed.

Thus, he established a rule: the law of the jungle, survival of the fittest.

He openly supported the mutual slaughter among the members of the Undying Heavenly Demon Clan.

In this way, the members of the Undying Heavenly Demon Clan even learned to band together for warmth, establishing surnames for one another.

They shifted their hatred for the entire clan onto other surnames.

"You… are truly resourceful," Xiao Fan sighed deeply, really not knowing what to say.

"Hehehe… Little friend, don't mock me. I regret this matter as well…"

"What happened after that? What else occurred?!" Xiao Fan asked.

"The Fire Lizard actually didn't die. Even though I took his Essence Core, he didn't actually die."

"Still not dead?!" Xiao Fan was shocked. "Is he that sinister?!"

"Hehehe… It's not him that's sinister, but the Land of Transcendence."

"Land of Transcendence…" Xiao Fan murmured, developing a deep interest in this Land of Transcendence.

"Actually, I had anticipated that the Fire Lizard wouldn't die, so I sealed him. Every hundred years after that, I would go and take a look, fearing his resurrection… It's not that I'm cowardly, but the creatures of the Land of Transcendence are just too sinister," the old man sighed.

"After tens of millions of years, I gradually discovered that the Fire Lizard had actually condensed a new Essence Core. Although it was very weak, it was an Essence Core, no mistake about it…"

"A new Essence Core? The Essence Core that makes you immortal and indestructible?!"

"Exactly."

Hearing this, Xiao Fan was shocked, his face filled with astonishment. "And then what?!"

"I realized my worries were correct. As long as the Fire Lizard was given enough time, he could still be resurrected. It's just that the Essence Core he recovered was very weak, so I immediately took it and refined it into my body…" the old man smiled bitterly.

At this moment, Xiao Fan finally realized how earth-shattering the old man's so-called secret truly was.

"Hehehe… You've guessed it, haven't you? Ye Yu doesn't know about this; in the entire Undying Heavenly Demon Clan, only I know… I've been dead for so long, and compared to the Essence Core, there's already quite a lot." The old man's laughter sounded in Xiao Fan's ear. "I will tell you the location of the Fire Lizard, and you can take the Essence Core and refine it into your body. You too can possess the immortal and indestructible Power of Transcendence."

Hearing this, Xiao Fan was first tempted, then fell silent.

A deathly silence.

"Little friend, what's wrong? Why aren't you speaking?"

"If I obtain the Essence Core, will I also be cursed by the Fire Lizard?!" Xiao Fan asked.

"Hehehe… No. The Fire Lizard cursed me and my descendants. After that, he died—no, he shouldn't be called dead; he should be considered asleep." The old man smiled bitterly.

Hearing this, Xiao Fan felt a sense of relief in his heart.

"You just told me that the Fire-Bathed Physique also comes from the Fire Lizard?!" Xiao Fan asked.

"Yes. I obtained the power of the Fire Lizard's Essence Core, and subsequently, my Bloodline descendants naturally possessed the Fire Lizard's power, though not as strong as mine… But there are always descendants who stand out. Their Physiques are similar to the Fire Lizard's, allowing them to be born from fire. I call it the Fire-Bathed Physique; in truth, it's just that the Fire Lizard's power is a bit more concentrated," the old man smiled faintly.

"So that's how it is…" Xiao Fan looked toward Mo Xue in the distance and smiled.

"Hehehe… Little friend, if you like her, I can betroth this descendant to you."

Xiao Fan: "…"

"I have no interest in her; I was just curious about the Desire Fire Physique." Xiao Fan shook his head.

Xiao Fan almost forgot that the other party was the progenitor of the Undying Heavenly Demon Clan and the Old Ancestor of all Undying Heavenly Demons.

"Hehehe… Little friend, don't be polite. Our Undying Heavenly Demon Clan is willing to form a marriage alliance with you…"

"Marriage alliance? Forget it, I'm not interested. Continue talking about the Fire Lizard." Xiao Fan shook his head with a bitter smile.
