chapter-1049
This was an attack from the heir's Soul Accumulation cultivation!
It contained Dao rules, nomological arts, and the blessing of the Immemorial Heavenly Dao. It was capable of suppressing all things in heaven and earth, shattering any resistance, and breaking infinite wills.
There was also the power of authority that spread into the surroundings. It was capable of altering the perception of sentient beings, deceiving even the heavens. When manifested in the divine technique, it became extremely domineering, adhering strictly to its will.
Everything collapsed in its way.
In the blink of an eye, the finger landed on the forehead of the blood-red face that was trying to rush into the desert storm.The face shook and its eyes widened in anger. It let out a deep roar and tried to resist, but a black ripple spread out from the space between its brows where the finger touched, covering the entire giant face.
As the ripple spread, the face caved in, cracked, until it shattered into countless fragments, dispersing in all directions.
It stirred up a storm, sweeping forcefully towards the direction of the Red Moon Shrine. The rumbling sounds were deafening at this moment, as though an invisible hand had transformed into raging waves that slapped the shore.
The side of the Red Moon Shrine instantly fell into chaos, with many collapsing and tumbling.
The attack of the Soul Accumulation contained monstrous divine might.
When the fourth hall master and the others, who had rushed into the desert, witnessed this scene, they gasped in shock. They knew there was a fourth stage Nihility expert like the fourth hall master among the pursuing Red Moon Shrine cultivators.
Under the effect of the tidal force of the Red Moon Star, the combat strength of a divine envoy with such a cultivation base would receive an extremely terrifying enhancement. Coupled with the help of others, they could display the might of a quasi Soul Accumulation cultivator.Just like the huge face earlier.
However, right now, this face seemed to be like paper, so fragile that it couldn't withstand a single blow.
But, as the supreme will of the Moon Worship Region, it was naturally impossible for the Red Moon Shrine to be defeated just like that. As the crimson light flickered, blood-colored brilliance erupted from the temples again.
After that, blood figures shot out one after another. They took advantage of the moment when the jade token in Xu Qing's hand shattered and the heir's attack dissipated to rush toward the desert storm.
There were more than a thousand of them. The peculiar thing about these cultivators was that they seemed to lack a corporeal body. They resembled blood souls, traversing the void and directly entering the desert.
The instant they rushed in, they released their power of the Crimson Goddess and activated their divine techniques, as though they wanted to taint the edge of the desert and let the divine might of the Crimson Goddess invade this place.
When the fourth hall master saw this, he immediately issued orders. The flying ships that had entered the desert swiftly changed direction. The cultivators inside rushed out. A portion of them met with the other fellow Daoists and a portion of them attempted to intercept the blood figures.
Ancestor Mogui also immediately issued orders. The desert cultivators stationed here acted immediately. There was also the Wind Guard Race who used their race's divine art, causing the storm to intensify and howl.
Xu Qing's gaze was also cold as he calmly spoke.
"The chance to redeem yourselves is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he performed a series of hand seals and pointed at the little chicks behind him. Immediately, these little chicks let out sharp cries and their bodies emitted cultivation fluctuations while growing larger.
Just like the large chick under Xu Qing's feet, these little chicks also became large chicks in the blink of an eye.
They, one after another, displayed ferocious expressions, with a determination in their eyes as they charged forward. Their madness stemmed from the desire to make a contribution, avoid being devoured, or perhaps to appear more diligent than the other chicks.
The chicks rose into the air and approached the blood figures. A chaotic battle unfolded instantly.
Aftershocks spread everywhere and the sounds of fights echoed in all directions. At the same time, the storm became even more violent than before.
Even though more blood shadows rushed in from the Red Moon Shrine and the blood light had gradually invaded the desert wind, the attacks of the rebel army were still powerful.
The most eye-catching ones were those large chicks.
All of them were over 100 feet in size. They were desperate and fearless, causing their combat strength to rise significantly, making them extremely fierce.
Wherever they passed, the blood figures were devoured by them like insects.
The act of devouring was incredibly skillful, as if it had become instinctive. However, casualties were inevitable, but an even more bizarre scene unfolded.
After the injuries on these large chicks reached a certain level, they actually emitted a white light and instantly recovered.
This was the power of Fifth Grandma's authority.
Xu Qing fell into deep thought. If it was said that Red Moon cultivators were blessed because they believed in the Crimson Goddess and thus obtained the divine might of the Crimson Goddess, then these little chicks had unknowingly begun to believe in Grandma Five, so they also had a portion of Grandma Five's abilities.
However, this ability wasn't absolute, so death would still appear.
Perhaps what the fourth hall master had said was correct, or perhaps they were afraid of the Soul Accumulation, so the Red Moon Shrine outside the desert didn't go all out.
After releasing a large number of blood figures and sensing that they were being rapidly destroyed, they chose to retreat.
With the receding blood glow, eventually, with the cooperation of everyone, this support operation came to an end under the barrier of the sandstorm in the great desert.
The rebel army on the fourth hall master's side felt different emotions after surviving this calamity, ranging from relief to contemplation. At the same time, they looked at the desert cultivators.
Or rather, they were mainly looking at those incomparably ferocious and savage large chicks.
As such, Xu Qing, who was standing on the largest chick, appeared especially conspicuous and attracted even more attention.
In reality, Red Moon's side had also paid attention previously. After all, it was Xu Qing who had activated the Soul Accumulation jade token. However, after Xu Qing left the God Slaying Platform, in order not to attract too much attention, he disguised his appearance again with the help of the heir and the others.
After all, what he had done on the God Slaying Platform was too significant.
Hence, in the eyes of the Red Moon cultivators, although Xu Qing was still handsome, he couldn't overlap with the person who had once shaken the hearts of all living beings.
It was the same for the Rebellion Army of the Moon Rebel Hall on the fourth hall master's side.
Xu Qing was calm. He patted the large chick under his feet and walked toward the fourth hall master and the others.
The fourth hall master stared at Xu Qing who was walking over from afar and asked Ancestor Mogui, who had arrived beside him.
"Fellow Daoist Mogui, who is this young man?"
As the fourth hall master spoke, Master Shengluo also looked over.
Ancestor Mogui's heart stirred. He was only at the first stage of Nihility, and the person in front of him was at the fourth stage. Not only was he the deputy hall master of the Moon Rebel Hall, but he was also a big shot in the entire Moon Worship Region.
If it was when he hadn't joined the apothecary, he would be extremely apprehensive when facing this person. After all, the difference in status was too great.
However, it was different now. This could be seen from the way the other party addressed him. Hence, he smiled and spoke.
"That's my young master."
The fourth hall master nodded slightly when he heard this. From the term 'young master' and the fact that he could activate the Soul Accumulation jade token, he already understood the relationship between this young man and the crown prince.
At the side, Master Shengluo also took a few more glances at Xu Qing because of the title of young master. He also sighed with emotion inwardly. After that, he seemed to have thought of something and cupped his fists toward Ancestor Mogui.
"Fellow Daoist Mogui, I have something I want to ask."
"Master Shengluo, please speak," Ancestor Mogui stated with a smile. Although he wasn't a cultivator of the Moon Rebel Hall, there were still some Moon Rebel Hall cultivators beside him. He had already learned of their identities through these people's words, so he knew that this Master Shengluo was also a big shot.
"I wonder if there are any alchemy experts in the desert? Have you heard of Master Pill Nine's name?"
When Shengluo's words rang out, Xu Qing was already close. After hearing this, his gaze landed on the person who spoke. He noticed that this was a middle-aged man with an extraordinary cultivation base who emitted the scent of medicinal pills.
Clearly, this was someone who refined pills all year round.
When Ancestor Mogui heard this, he shook his head and didn't say that Xu Qing knew alchemy. He had lived for so long and profoundly understood that talking too much could lead to mistakes. Moreover, they weren't familiar with each other.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw the approaching Xu Qing. Hence, he first greeted him before answering Shengluo's question.
"Although we desert cultivators additionally have alchemy cultivators, there seem to be very few with extremely profound attainments… As for Master Pill Nine, I've also heard of him. Does Master Shengluo mean that Master Pill Nine is in my desert?"
When Xu Qing heard this, he glanced at the alchemy cultivator and saw the statue of Master Shengluo in his mind, overlapping with the person before him.
He recalled the alchemy battle between the other party and him in the Moon Rebel Hall.
Shengluo sighed. He could tell that Mogui was being perfunctory and knew that he had been too hasty. He then nodded at Xu Qing. The fourth hall master's gaze additionally landed on Xu Qing.
"Greetings, Seniors." Xu Qing cupped his fists.
"Junior is here to receive you on the orders of the heir. I welcome everyone to the green sand desert."
Looking at the fourth hall master, Xu Qing felt a strange sense of familiarity. Soon, he recalled the messages he used to receive periodically in his temple.
However, he had always been concealing himself very well, so it was impossible for the other party to know that he was Pill Nine.
This was indeed the case. Although the fourth hall master's cultivation was profound, he wasn't omnipotent. He and Shengluo would never have thought that the Pill Nine they had always wanted to visit was right in front of them.
However, this didn't hinder them from being polite. Even though he had a Nihility cultivation base, Xu Qing had come to receive them in the name of the heir. Hence, they chatted very harmoniously.
Just like that, under Xu Qing's invitation, the group of people headed toward the Bitter Life Mountain Range in a majestic manner.
The sandstorm howled. Xu Qing and Ancestor Mogui stood on the fourth hall master's flying ship. Xu Qing addressed sparingly during the journey, leaving Ancestor Mogui to introduce the desert. Naturally, the conversation turned to the gray wind here and the holy land's apothecary.
The moment the scene of the god being slain ended in the minds of all living beings was when the gray wind was formed. This matter was no longer a secret by now.
In reality, this was additionally the reason why outsiders guessed that the scene in the minds of all living beings was related to the crown prince.
However, after hearing Ancestor Mogui's explanation, the fourth hall master glanced at Xu Qing and suddenly spoke.
"Young man, the figure on the God Slaying Platform in the minds of all living beings was you, right?"
At the side, Master Shengluo wasn't paying attention to the talks of the God Slaying Platform but the apothecary. At that moment, he additionally looked at Xu Qing and couldn't help but ask.
"Little friend, are you the one who opened the apothecary? You know alchemy?"
