  Just as Shi Xiaobai thought of the green ball, he felt an itch on his neck. It was as though something had just brushed past his neck!

  It was that green ball!

  It had rolled down from the back of his head and the skin it brushed passed felt a chill and a slight itch. Shi Xiaobai was alarmed as he felt that the green ball was already rolling down his back like a molester caressing his back. From time to time, it would strike forward as though it was trying to 'penetrate' his body through his back.

  However, there was no 'hole' on his back like his glabella and palm. The green ball could only continue rolling and leap constantly as it was without any options.

  Shi Xiaobai felt his scalp tingle as his body tensed up. After a long while, he realized that the green ball was still striking his back mindlessly in the hopes of finding a 'hole'. He was slightly relieved that it did not know how to circle around to his front.

  However, what followed this moment of relaxation left Shi Xiaobai in shock. The green ball began slipping downward and while adhering to his back, reached his buttocks!

  Wait!

  There were no 'holes' on his back, but what about his buttocks?

  No, no way, right!?

  Shi Xiaobai suddenly widened his eyes as an intense ominous foreboding overwhelmed him!

  At the same time, the green ball had rolled to the middle of his buttocks. Suddenly, it emitted a sound of 'joy' as though it had found a treasure vault. Suddenly, it spun once and impatiently charged forward!

  That place won't do!

  Shi Xiaobai roared in his heart as he swatted forcefully with his backhand. He had managed to swat the green ball away in a timely fashion, preventing a tragic result from happening. He turned in anger and glared at the green ball that was hurtling straight for him again.

  Just in time, the Transcendent King shouted, "Be excited, be joyful. A boy chosen by the king. You shall inherit This King's will and become the supreme Transcendent King!"

  Go fuck yourself!

  It could not be tolerated!

  Shi Xiaobai was infuriated!

  The green ball did not know what it had nearly done. Detecting Shi Xiaobai turn around, it 'happily' charged straight for Shi Xiaobai's glabella.

  Shi Xiaobai sneered as he stretched out both his arms and opening his palms, black and white streams of light emitted from his palms and instantly condensed into two holy swords. One was named "Holy Radiance" and the other was named "Darkness".

  At the same time, golden points of light began emerging out of the ground as they lingered around Shi Xiaobai's body. They condensed into a golden glow and as they enveloped Shi Xiaobai's body surface, it was as though he was donned in golden battle armor.

  Excalibur, the power of Sword Truth!

  "This King will fight it out with you!"

  Shi Xiaobai roared angrily as he brandished both swords simultaneously!

  Ding! Ding! Ding!

  The white sword on his left swept up a squall and accompanying that were sharp sword beams. Mist suddenly condensed within the squall as everything became icy-cold sword intent. Air began to freeze and crack as a sharp crackle emitted!

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  The black sword on the right swept up an inferno as the flames crackled. The ground ruptured under the flames as rubble began lifting off the ground and crashed down like meteorites. As the rubble melted into molten rocks in the flames, the sudden plummeting made it seem like a meteor shower!

  Dual blade style!

  Kun Peng's Four Swords!

  Shi Xiaobai did not dare hold back. The sword techniques he used were his best!

  Sizzle!

  With the four elements of Wind, Fire, Ice, and Earth slashing out in sword beams, they clashed with one another and emitted sizzling sounds. Instantly, they consumed the green ball!

  Deng! Deng! Deng!

  The sound of wave surfing resounded as the green ball seemed to ride on the winds and molten rock as it rolled to a spot in front of Shi Xiaobai. Its surface remained crystalline and exuded its green luster. It was not damaged in any way!

  Shi Xiaobai's pupils contracted slightly as he was astonished. However, he did not give up hope. He had already kept the black and white swords. Replacing them was a golden sword!

  Lucifer's Sword!

  This was the world suppression sword that he had pulled out in the Underworld. In fact, it was Hero King Dawn Li's sword from three thousand years ago!

  The Lucifer's Sword in Shi Xiaobai's hand was on a completely different level from the Lucifer's Sword that Dawn Li had in her youth. After countless battles, it had been enhanced to a completely different level. It had even managed to give birth to a sword spirit after all those years!

  With Shi Xiaobai's present strength, simply holding the sword would drain a fourth of his psionic power. Just swinging it would drain him off more than half!

  However, this sword was no doubt the strongest strength Shi Xiaobai could muster at the moment!

  Shi Xiaobai retreated rapidly and did not use Proximity Chasm. Instead, he used Crab Steps' passing off the spurious as genuine. He constantly changed his direction and speed in an attempt to open up a distance.

  Although the green ball was fast, it had extremely low intelligence. It was indeed deceived and made mistakes in its direction. However, it would immediately correct its course and chase up to him at an astounding speed.

  However, Shi Xiaobai did not miss this short opportunity. Immediately, with Lucifer's Sword tightly clenched in his hand, he raised it high above his head. Golden light condensed on the sword tip as it formed the outline of a gigantic sword!

  Excalibur!

  After an intense discussion with Dawn Li in the array world, Shi Xiaobai had made several alterations to Excalibur. One of them was to reduce the time it needed to gather his sword intent!

  Therefore, this strike was much faster than before!

  Although the sword beam was no longer as boundless as before, it did not mean it was dull at all!

  Shi Xiaobai's strongest sword technique slashed straight onto the green ball that was shooting straight for his glabella!

  Boom!

  With a loud rumble, golden light cracked apart and like the crack of dawn, there was a blinding light!

  Shi Xiaobai kept Lucifer's Sword and puffed in exhaustion. The improved Excalibur would no longer drain him of all his energy but he had used nearly all his strength in that strike. Therefore, he did not have much psionic power left.

  This strike determined the outcome.

  "Be excited, be joyful. A boy chosen by the king. You shall inherit This King's will and become the supreme Transcendent King!"

  The Transcendent King's repeated exclamations sounded once again from the resplendent golden light.

  A tiny green light bloomed.

  The green ball shot out from the golden light and charged straight at Shi Xiaobai's glabella.

  The green ball's crystalline luster remained, indicating that it was still completely undamaged!

  Shi Xiaobai's strongest sword technique was useless!

  If despair had a color, then it was definitely the green color emitted by that green ball!

  "This King is a king. Fuck your inheritance!"

  Shi Xiaobai cursed angrily as he glared at the green ball that was charging straight for his glabella. He suddenly extended his hand, grabbed it, opened his mouth and stuffed the jade ball into it with his eyes closed. Clenching down on his teeth, he chewed down on it!

  Shi Xiaobai had swallowed the green ball!

  Do you want to 'penetrate' This King? This King will first eat you!

  At that instant, Shi Xiaobai had ignored the consequences!

  But at the next second, Shi Xiaobai's skin suddenly suffused a layer of green!

  Shi Xiaobai had turned green!

  Chapter503 The Sin Poison of the Holy Tree

  Wit
h the Kun Peng Sword Technique and Excalibur ineffective, Shi Xiaobai could only go for broke as he attempted to swallow the green ball. He was hoping to use the Power of Taotie to 'digest' the green ball.

  However, he never expected the green ball to be unaffected by it. Instead, it rolled down his gullet like a fish in water. It adhered closely inside Shi Xiaobai's chest cavity and beat alongside his heart.

  Shi Xiaobai immediately felt a shudder as he opened his mouth in the hopes of vomiting it out!

  The green ball suddenly produced countless green needles like a porcupine. They stabbed forcefully into Shi Xiaobai's visceral organs, limbs, meridians and blood vessels!

  If not for 'Unleaking Turtle Aura' drastically reducing the pain, Shi Xiaobai would probably have cried out in pain. But even so, the pain of his tender flesh being stabbed was still exceedingly clear. It was as though he was being bitten by thousands of ants!

  And at the next moment, with a flush, the green ball suddenly shot out a sticky green liquid through the countless needles. The liquid infused Shi Xiaobai's visceral organs, limbs, meridians and blood vessels, mixing with his blood, bone marrow and every other liquid in his body!

  Shi Xiaobai's skin instantly turned a layer of green!

  Changing of his bloodline!

  No, it was not only so!

  The 'calamity' Shi Xiaobai was facing was not only limited to that. Suddenly, crisp rattling sounds were heard from his body!

  Shi Xiaobai drew a gasp of cold air as he felt the bones in his body shrinking, distorting and changing shape!

  His skull!

  His torso bones!

  The bones of his limbs!

  The two hundred and six bones in his body were in spontaneous motion at that instant. It was either compressing, rubbing against each other or colliding. They seemed orderly but also did not seem to be following any certain pattern!

  However, there was one thing that was certain. Not only was Shi Xiaobai's skin turning green, his body was also shrinking!

  This was not as simple as a bloodline transformation but transformation into another species!

  Shi Xiaobai was turning from a yellow-skinned human to a green-skinned Transcendent dwarf!

  The Transcendent King's remnant soul finally changed its lines. It began reciting loudly like it was reading an essay with a perfect score.

  "Bear with it! The pain is a necessary process of the transformation!"

  "Hold on! This is not a punishment but the transcendental favor!"

  "Relax! Do not resist. This is the heritage of a king. It's the benevolence of a king!"

  "…"

  The Transcendent King played the role of an elder that gave good and patient guidance, as though it was attempting to 'pacify' Shi Xiaobai, who was 'accepting' the Transcendent King's heritage.

  Was this also part of the 'program's settings?

  Shi Xiaobai could not help but scoff in anger.

  Bear with it? Hold on? Relax?

  Fuck that shit!

  Ignoring the fact that the pain was something no one could endure without 'Unleaking Turtle Aura', who would willingly accept the darn setting of turning from human to a green-skinned dwarf!?

  Shi Xiaobai naturally could not accept it!

  The moment he had thoughts of resistance, the red blood in his vessels which were gradually being 'devoured' by the green liquid began boiling. It clashed head on with the green fluid!

  His human bloodline was fighting the Transcendent bloodline!

  Shi Xiaobai suddenly recalled the Infernal Queen mentioning that the Transcendent King's heritage needed to be willingly accepted by the inheritor. So that was the case. The bloodline of others would not be easily bullied either. When their master generated thoughts of resistance, they would charge forward like soldiers to protect their 'nation'!

  Even though the pain from the clash of the bloodlines was something even 'Unleaking Turtle Aura' could not withstand, Shi Xiaobai continued conjuring his human bloodline to fight the Transcendent King's heritage through gritted teeth!

  The red blood and the green fluid began to engage in a 'massacre'!

  The green ball suddenly vibrated violently as it issued resonating sounds like a petulant child!

  The Transcendent King's remnant soul also sensed the situation. Not only did it change its lines, its expression had changed as well. It said nervously, "Child, bear with it! Hold on! Relax! Definitely, do not resist it! Pain is only temporary. It will be over after tolerating it for a moment! But if you were to attempt to resist, the heritage power will result in a lashback. Once the Transcendental favor becomes the Sin Poison of the holy tree, no one can save you!"

  Clearly, the setting of the Transcendent King's remnant soul believed that Shi Xiaobai, who had reached the ninth level, was a trial-taker willing to accept the heritage. Without any subjective thoughts, it could only understand Shi Xiaobai's sudden resistance to be out of pain. Therefore, he advised him anxiously!

  However, the reason why Shi Xiaobai had reached the ninth level was not that he was willing but because the Infernal Queen had ignored the rules and sent him up against his will!

  Shi Xiaobai could not help but feel suspicious.

  The Infernal Queen clearly knew that such a situation would occur but she had still sent him to the ninth level.

  Could it be that she would think he would compromise by accepting the Transcendent King's heritage under the threat of death? Or was she trying to kill him?

  But with her strength, wouldn't it be easier for her to kill him directly if she wanted to kill him?

  Then, what if the answer was the former?

  No, no matter how much a 'slut' the Infernal Queen was, she was definitely not a fool. She was even very clever. She definitely knew what he would do when he faced such a situation!

  Upon thinking of that, Shi Xiaobai suddenly grinned.

  Eking out his survival by being a green-skinned dwarf?

  No!

  This King will absolutely not do it!

  Upon sensing the master's intense will to resist, the human bloodline boiled even more vigorously. Fresh red blood began 'devouring' the green liquid as the bones that were being compressed and distorted suddenly stretched out. As though warriors that had been crushed down by a boulder suddenly raised their hands to lift the rock, they stood up with verve and straightened their backs in an upright position!

  Weng! Weng! Weng!

  The green ball suddenly spun around at an extremely fast speed. It began creating a great deal of friction between his chest and sternum as an ear-piercing sound was emitted!

  The Transcendent King's expression changed drastically as he screamed, "Stop! Stop! Stop!"

  "Accept the Transcendent King's heritage and you will possess supreme power, becoming a king among the Transcendents. You will become the ruler of the world! Your fate will definitely change as a result!"

  "Quickly stop!"

  The Transcendent King shouted hysterically. However, it was only a remnant soul. Although it was given a portion of the Transcendent King's emotions, it did not have any intelligence, not to mention any strength. It could not prevent Shi Xiaobai's resistance and it could only attempt to persuade Shi Xiaobai with words.

  Shi Xiaobai turned a deaf ear to it as he closed his eyes and tried to use the power of his human bloodline. He constantly attempted to devour the Transcendent King's heritage and pressed on at every stage. Finally, the power of his bloodline enveloped the green ball!

  The human bloodline was deeply ingrained within him, so with Shi Xiaobai’s resolute resistance, the Transcendent King's heritage was unable to put up a fight!

  "This King's fate is decided by This King!"

  Shi Xiaobai suddenly widened his eyes and roared at the Transcendent King. The power of his bloodline transformed into an invisible hand that clenched the green ball tightly. Suddenly, it tightened as the green ball struggled vigorously and emitted sharp cries!

  "Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah!"

  Th
e Transcendent King's remnant soul screamed even more tragically. Its translucent body suddenly faded in and out of existence and gradually became even more transparent, as though it was a wisp of cloud that could dissipate at any moment.

  "Darn sinner. To destroy my Transcendental heritage, the Sin Poison of the holy tree will turn you to pus and you will be reduced to nothing!"

  The Transcendent King cursed viciously and with a poof, it dissipated, turning into a light green smoke which dispersed into the air.

  At the same time, the green ball in Shi Xiaobai's body suddenly turned black. It went from green to dirty black!

  Boom!

  The black ball suddenly cracked in Shi Xiaobai's body with a boom. If not for his bloodline's power enshrouding it that formed an invisible barrier, his heart which was in close proximity to the ball would have been torn to shreds.

  But even so, Shi Xiaobai still spat out a mouthful of blackened blood.

  The explosion of the black ball was like the rupturing of a ball of water. Black liquid squirted out and doused Shi Xiaobai's internal organs. They did not corrode his flesh and blood like acid but instead infused into them, turning his blood-red fascia black instantly!

  The poison instantly spread itself into his visceral organs and every inch of his blood vessels!

  The holy tree's Sin Poison?

  Only then did Shi Xiaobai realize the obscure meaning of its name. The black liquid that had spread throughout his body after the explosion green ball that turned black was the poison of the Transcendence Holy Tree on the seventh level!

  No, that Transcendence Holy Tree was only a replica. That poison was on a completely different level than the poison that was flowing within Shi Xiaobai's veins!

  Even though Shi Xiaobai possessed a constitution that was resistant against poison, just 20% of the true Transcendence Holy Tree's poison was already fatal!

  His skin, flesh, blood, tendons, bones, nerves and every cell in his body were instantly infected by the black poison. They were dying!

  Shi Xiaobai had turned black!
