Chapter 202: Cain

Shui Jing, the disciple of the Great Immortal, appeared as a boy of just ten years old, his youthful voice echoing throughout the golden hall.
Yet everyone in the hall—whether the seven Void Gods or other cultivators—kept their mouths shut.
“Go.”
Suddenly, one of the Void Gods waved his hand, and a green light swept up his subordinates, taking them away through another passage.
The other six Void Gods also left swiftly; staying behind might mean being killed at any moment.
“Chen Xiao, good luck,” said Lou Yu with a smile, patting Chen Xiao’s shoulder before leaving in an instant.
“Hmm, Chen Xiao, I believe this young senior won’t harm you. I’m leaving too,” said Xuan Yuan Po with a forced laugh before vanishing in a flash.
Now, only Shui Jing and Chen Xiao remained in the hall.
“Who are you? Why do you know me?” Chen Xiao pondered for a moment before asking.
“You are someone my master values, so of course I know you,” replied Shui Jing with a smile.
“Your master?” Chen Xiao was stunned. Then, the image of an old man with a mischievous grin appeared in his mind—it was the Great Immortal.
But the next moment, Chen Xiao shook his head, dismissing that thought.
This Shui Jing seemed to be far below the Great Immortal’s cultivation level. If a Void God, even a low-level one, could be killed by him in one move, then he must be at least a peak Void God.
What kind of person could be a master of such a being? Could it be a deity? If his master was the Great Immortal, then was the Great Immortal a deity?
Last time, when he and the Great Immortal came here, the Great Immortal himself had spat blood after being shocked by the two statues at the entrance. If that was an act, it was quite convincing.
And if it wasn’t the Great Immortal, then who could it be?
“No need to think about it. You’ll know who my master is when the time comes,” said Shui Jing with a smile. His thoughts hadn’t escaped him.
Chen Xiao simply nodded without saying anything.
“Well, I’ve finished my business here and must leave. But I should warn you—this Tianlong Secret Treasury is vast beyond measure. Though it appears to be a treasure hoard of 108 deities, there seems to be something even more mysterious behind it. Moreover, it’s extremely dangerous. In fact, the number of people who’ve entered here isn’t as few as you see; they’ve just been assigned to other entry points. Be careful.”
Shui Jing smiled slightly, turned around, and transformed into a streak of light before disappearing.
“Strange. My master said earlier that each treasure hall is guarded by an extremely fierce divine beast. Why isn’t there any such beast in the treasure hall of the Golden Dragon God?”
Filled with endless doubts, Shui Jing left the Tianlong Secret Treasury.
……
“So they’ve all been transported to different places. No wonder I haven’t seen many Huaxia forces—they’ve all been sent elsewhere.”

After hearing Shui Jing’s words, Chen Xiao already had a clear idea in mind. However, Shui Jing’s master was extremely worrying. Chen Xiao carried too many secrets—just the matter of the Main God Entity and the Main God Space. If those secrets were revealed, even the immortals who had always favored Chen Xiao might not be able to resist seizing them.
“It seems I need to be even more discreet from now on. If even the slightest hint leaks out, it will be dangerous.”
As he thought this, it seemed as though the entire Main God Entity sensed it. In an instant, the Main God Entity, which had been floating in Chen Xiao’s mind sea, turned into a tiny particle and hid away. Now, even if a peerless expert’s mental power penetrated Chen Xiao’s mind sea, they would not be able to detect the existence of the Main God Entity.
“There seem to be many corpses of gods here. Hurry up and collect them, extracting the remaining life essence from their bodies to replenish Xuanwu.”
With that thought, he entered the passage leading to the other grand halls. By now, the Tianlong Secret Treasury was fully open, and the blood-red seal that had sealed the passage had disappeared without a trace. Moreover, deep within the Tianlong Secret Treasury, that mysterious summoning will continued to call out to Chen Xiao, urging him to go deeper.
At the end of this passage was a blood-red grand hall, where two Void Gods were facing off against each other.
“Bruch, I didn’t expect you to still be alive. You’ve even reached the level of a Void God!”
One of them was none other than Bruch, the founder of one of the thirteen vampire clans, and the descendant of Cain, the progenitor of the vampires. Among the thirteen vampire clans, the Bruch clan held precedence precisely because of this old monster’s existence.
The other was a Void God of the Dark Blood Clan. At that moment, only these two Void Gods were present in the hall; everyone else had vanished.
“Bruch, is this eighth-tier brat the helper you brought? Relying on such a trivial eighth-tier creature is truly laughable.”
The Void God of the Dark Blood Clan felt a slight stir in his heart upon seeing Chen Xiao. Only when he realized Shui Jing wasn’t following did he slightly relax. He wasn’t afraid of Chen Xiao, even if Chen Xiao was accompanied by a Void Divine Beast at the ninth level of the Domain Realm. But that mysterious Shui Jing made him uneasy. Killing a Void God of the Dragon Clan with a single move—even ten of them together wouldn’t be a match.
“Hmph, I didn’t expect you to still be alive, you filthy degenerate. Sina, my father’s treasures and divine entities were meant for me alone. They’re not something you filthy wretch can touch. As for young Chen Xiao, he’s just here to help my worthless descendants. I alone am enough to deal with you.”
Bruch had golden curly hair, deep blue eyes, a high nose bridge, and a faint smile on his face. Dressed in a black tuxedo, he looked perfectly suited to be a noble.
Across from him stood Sina, the Void God of the Dark Blood Clan, clad in black combat attire, with a dark complexion and blood-red pupils, exuding a sense of violence.
“Logically, those 108 treasure halls should have assigned each person who entered them to a different one. But instead, I was thrown right here. Could this be some divine fate?”

Chen Xiao thought to himself, remaining calm on the surface while secretly observing the two men. Just moments ago, the tension between them had been high, but now that Chen Xiao had arrived, the atmosphere between them had eased, as if they were wary of him. “Go ahead, you two. I’m just passing by.” Chen Xiao chuckled and stepped away toward another passage leading elsewhere. “Waaah…” But suddenly, a terrifying roar echoed through the air. In an instant, blood-red light filled the entire hall. On the blood-colored throne in the hall, a middle-aged man appeared out of nowhere. He had long blood-red hair and blood-red eyes, and behind him were a pair of blood-colored bat wings, each spanning three meters wide. “Father!” As soon as Bruh saw this middle-aged man, his face showed disbelief, and his body instinctively moved toward him. Meanwhile, Sina’s face showed fear as he began to retreat. Was Cain, the progenitor of the vampires, still alive? The Dark Vampires were traitors who had abandoned the true vampires. If Cain, the true god of vampires, was still alive, then the entire Dark Vampire race would be doomed. Boom! In the next moment, something unexpected happened. Cain, the progenitor on the throne, suddenly stretched out his blood-colored claws and rushed at Bruh, tearing his body to pieces in an instant. “Waaah…” Cain let out a roar as his claws moved back and forth through Bruh’s body, crushing him completely. “Father…” An incredulous voice came from Bruh’s remains. “Waaah!” Cain suddenly opened his mouth wide and swallowed up all of Bruh’s flesh that was floating in the air, ready to reassemble. “How is this possible?!” Sina’s expression changed drastically. If Cain were normal, he might still have a chance to survive, but now that he had devoured his own son, would he spare Sina? Sina dashed toward another exit, but Cain was even faster, catching up to him in an instant and swallowing Sina whole. “Cain’s strength isn’t very great. Even in his monstrous form, his power is only on par with Bruh and Sina.” Chen Xiao’s mental power had already determined Cain’s true strength. Bruh and Sina were defeated and killed so quickly because they were caught off guard. Moreover, Cain’s status was enough to make these two vampires with his bloodline unable to resist at all, leading to their immediate death. After swallowing Sina, Cain turned his attention back to Chen Xiao. “Waaah!” Cain let out a scream and rushed at Chen Xiao again. Buzz! The magic sword Yuanmie trembled slightly before transforming into a beam of blood-red light to stop Cain.

The strength of the Abyssal Destruction Sword was only equivalent to that of a cultivator at the ninth level of the Domain realm, but its core was an undisputed Void Divine Artifact, extremely durable, even comparable to the bodies of ordinary deities. As for Cain, it was unknown how long he had been dead; the life essence in his body had long been depleted, his divine body had become extremely fragile, and his strength was only on par with that of a low-level Void God. Boom! A Void Divine Artifact and a Void God collided violently in the air. In the next moment, the Abyssal Destruction Sword flew back, while Cain merely stepped back three steps. “Wow!” Cain let out a long roar and charged at Chen Xiao again.
