Primordial Ancient Serpent-Chapter 457: The Power of Morning Bells and Evening Drums, The Sound of Chaos

Originally, this Universe Secret Treasure, Morning Bell and Evening Drum, fell into the hands of the Baili Race. If a dozen Elders joined forces, they could barely activate a trace of its power.

However, the attack from the Blood God Kingdom was too swift, beheading several Elders in an instant.

As a result, the Baili did not have enough manpower to activate the Universe Secret Treasure, and thus lost their greatest trump card.

That's why the Baili Race suffered such a tragedy—they were slaughtered. Some of them were captured by the Blood God Kingdom and taken as blood sacrifices.

"Interesting."

With a wave of his hand, Gu Chuan seized the Universe Treasure instantly. Using his All-Seeing Eye, he began analyzing the treasure's deepest secrets.

Clatter~~

In an instant, a massive stream of information surged into the depths of his Sea of Consciousness, revealing all the mysteries of the treasure.

Morning Bell

Level: Universe Secret Treasure

Origin: A small clock born from Chaos Space-Time. It possesses incredible power. Once rung, its sound echoes throughout the Chaos Dao.

If used with good intentions, the Chaos Dao resonance washes away distracting thoughts from countless beings, inducing sudden enlightenment.

With its help, one's cultivation progresses with half the effort and double the results.

If used with malice, it emits a terrifying Chaos Sound, powerful enough to shatter space and time and cause countless beings to suffer Qi Deviation.

Evening Drum

Level: Universe Secret Treasure

Origin: A mysterious drum also born from Chaos Space-Time.

When beaten with good intentions, it induces deep sleep in countless beings, accelerating physical recovery—even from severe injuries—in just a few days. Its sound, like the thunder of tigers and leopards, has the effect of Marrow Washing and Scripture Refining.

If struck with malice, it traps beings in eternal nightmares, draining their vitality, hastening aging, and even inducing the Five Declines of Deva.

"Just as I thought."

A light gleamed in Gu Chuan's eyes. He could feel the overwhelming power within these two Universe Secret Treasures. Once refined, they would undoubtedly increase his combat strength significantly.

Unfortunately, they had fallen into the hands of the Baili Race, like dust on a pearl. Had they fallen into the hands of a Lord of the Universe, their effects would have been astonishing.

But since now wasn't the time to refine them, he put the Morning Bell and Evening Drum away into the Chaos Orb's space.

"This..."

Seeing Gu Chuan put the treasure away, Baili Ying and the others revealed a moment of reluctance in their eyes. But it quickly faded.

They had lived in the Origin Continent long enough to understand a truth—"Those with treasures and no strength will invite disaster."

Countless examples in history proved this.

"Indeed, it's a fine treasure. I accept your deal."

Gu Chuan looked at Baili Ying.

"Really? That's wonderful!"

Baili Ying and the others were overjoyed. Honestly, if Gu Chuan had refused their offer, they could only suffer in silence.

But he actually accepted their terms and agreed to avenge them. Their excitement was indescribable.

After escaping the Baili Tribe, they had longed for revenge. Yet they knew it was a near-impossible dream. Their enemy was the Blood God Kingdom, backed by a Lord of the Universe.

It was an overwhelming force they couldn't even hope to shake.

But now, with a powerful Lord of the Universe standing on their side, that hope had been reignited.

"Do you know where the Blood God Kingdom is?"

Gu Chuan asked.

Blood God Kingdom?

Upon hearing this, Baili Ying and the others froze. They knew it was a terrifying place filled with bloodthirsty warriors. But its exact location? They had no idea.

After all, who would willingly approach a place like that?

"Interesting. You want to know where our Blood God Kingdom is? What, are you planning to take revenge?"

Suddenly, a booming voice echoed from the distance.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!

In an instant, the ground trembled. Tens of thousands of strange beasts charged forward, donned in blood-red armor and armed with spears. Each one radiated a murderous aura.

Leading them was a burly man wielding a Blood Spear. It was he who had just spoken. Behind him were a hundred thousand troops.

In mere moments, the entire jungle was filled with bloodthirsty soldiers, surrounding them on all sides.

"General Xue Shisan of the Blood God Kingdom!"

Elder Bailikuan's expression shifted. He immediately recognized the burly man—another general of the Blood God Kingdom, even stronger than Xue Shiqi from earlier.

He hadn't expected Xue Shisan to follow so quickly.

But he calmed down. After all, they had the support of a mysterious Lord of the Universe. There was no need to fear.

"Strange... I heard earlier that my little brother, Xue Shiqi, appeared here and even encountered you remnants of the Baili Race. But why isn't he here now? Where did he go?"

Xue Shisan frowned, his face darkening.

"He's dead."

Gu Chuan replied calmly.

"Dead?"

A cold gleam flickered in Xue Shisan's eyes. "What do you mean? How did he die? Who killed him?!"

He stared at Gu Chuan with killing intent.

"I killed him."

Gu Chuan said indifferently.

"Impossible! My little brother was powerful and nearly immortal. How could he be killed so easily?!"

Xue Shisan roared. "Enough lies! I'll capture you and torture you for three days and nights—then we'll see if you still dare lie in front of me!"

A murderous aura erupted from his body. He immediately launched an attack on Gu Chuan.

"Fool. Who gave you the courage to act in front of me?"

Gu Chuan shook his head and casually pointed a finger...
