chapter-1280
At that moment, in this place where the ghost carriages were scattered, there were over a hundred cultivators. Every one of them had their own methods. Some relied on cultivation arts, while others relied on external objects.
Moreover, they were outstanding figures among their peers. That was why they could hide here until now, waiting for an opportunity to obtain a ghost carriage cub.
If Xu Qing hadn't appeared, although there would be casualties among them, there would definitely be someone who could successfully obtain the ghost carriage.
However, now… with Xu Qing's arrival, with just a sentence, all the ghost carriages they yearned for flew out.
With a wave of his hand, it was as though he had pulled open the curtains in the dark room, exposing everyone's concealment.In fact, this description wasn't appropriate. To be precise, with a wave of Xu Qing's hand, not only did he open the curtains, but the house instantly dismantled on its own and grew feet before leaving separately.
The shock brought about by this scene caused all the Flame Moon cultivators here to feel thunder rumbling in their minds.
The land became clear in an instant, from darkness to light, causing their breathing to become hurried.
Ji Dongzi felt the biggest shock. Previously, after he sensed that the source of the change in the Mountains and Seas was Jiuli, he guessed that it might be related to Xu Qing.
He had also thought that Xu Qing might not be dead and that they might meet again in the future. However, no matter what, he didn't expect that the next time the two sides met, it would actually happen in such an unbelievable way.
Looking at the hundreds of ghost carriages prostrating in the distance as though they had seen a king and the three terrifying and ancient figures in the sky, Ji Dongzi shivered.
An intense sense of danger erupted in his mind.It was the same for Fan Shishuang, who was 10,000 feet away from him. He was originally confronting Ji Dongzi, but at this moment, after seeing all of this, waves of shock surged in his mind.
In an instant, everyone was intimidated by this scene and didn't dare to act rashly.
Only Xu Qing stood outside this scattered dense forest. His gaze didn't land on Ji Dongzi in the distance immediately. Instead, he looked at the three Soul Accumulation ghost carriages in the sky.
These three were different from all the ferocious beasts he had encountered on his way.
They didn't wail or prostrate. Instead, they watched him with a hint of doubt and scrutiny.
"After the ferocious beasts in the Mountains and Seas Region reach the Soul Accumulation realm, they might… awaken some memories hidden in their bloodline."
Xu Qing fell into deep thought. Only this answer could explain the gazes of the three Soul Accumulation ghost carriages.
This gaze also allowed Xu Qing to understand the limit of his Jiuli aura.
"Unless I can display the true ancestral magus form, I can't control the Soul Accumulation ferocious beasts."
Xu Qing pondered and retracted his gaze. He swept his gaze past the cultivators whose figures had been revealed in the dense forest and finally looked in the direction of Ji Dongzi.
The distance between them was very far. Mortals wouldn't be able to see so far.
However, as cultivators whose combat strength and cultivation had reached such a level, as long as the distance wasn't too far, with the enhancement of their divine consciousness merging with their senses, they could sense and see each other.
As he stared at Ji Dongzi, the sense of danger in Ji Dongzi's mind rose once again. Xu Qing lifted his foot and took a step forward.
With this step, thunder rumbled from his body. A large number of red soul threads spread out, forming a blood-red storm in the surroundings before rapidly fusing to form his god form.
It was directly the fourth form, the Crimson Goddess Form, also known as Lord Purple!
Standing a thousand feet tall, Its entire body was covered in purple flesh feathers, with two massive wings on Its back. Murmurs emanated from Its body, echoing in all directions.
Behind It was a slowly rising purple moon. Countless figures were worshiping on it.
In front of It was a huge sundial. The gnomon was spinning, forming the power of time, distorting the void and blurring everything.
Under It, a huge lotus platform appeared. Every lotus leaf represented one of Xu Qing's abilities.
The purple tentacles they formed spread out. From afar, It looked like a purple amaryllis.
The god's intent descended on the world, causing the souls of many cultivators to sway. Even the ghost carriages were restless. The three Soul Accumulations emitted their own pressure.
However, Xu Qing didn't care. With this terrifying god form, he took the second step.
The moment he landed, nine flesh lanterns instantly flew out of his body and surrounded the surroundings. Nine astonishing heads formed on them. As they let out roars, they rapidly surged toward Xu Qing.
In an instant, they fused with Xu Qing's god form and transformed into a set of magus armor that was filled with the vicissitudes of time.
The nine heads of the Jiuli appeared in unison, augmenting Xu Qing's combat strength comprehensively.
The moment the mask formed by Yazi stuck to Xu Qing's face, the color of the sky changed and a storm brewed!
What was displayed in this world was an existence that had never appeared in history.
God and magus appeared on a person at the same time. An indescribably powerful aura rose from Xu Qing's body.
The prostrating ghost carriages on ground shivered, while the ghost carriages in the sky lowered their heads.
The vegetation in the surrounding rainforest bent down in unison. The red lightning in the sky also exploded, dyeing the sky red.
Many of the Flame Moon cultivators couldn't withstand the aura and spat out blood, having no choice but to retreat. Their hearts were already filled with horror.
Even Fan Shishuang and Ji Dongzi felt as though thunder had exploded in their minds.
They didn't need to exchange a blow to clearly sense how powerful Xu Qing was at this moment.
In the distance, Tian Mozi's breathing was hurried. Like everyone else, this was the first time he had seen Xu Qing in this form. The connection from his bloodline caused him to involuntarily feel a sense of worship.
Just as everyone was intimidated by Xu Qing, Xu Qing, who was in his divine magus form, took the third step and crossed the distance, appearing 10,000 feet away from Ji Dongzi.
The moment he appeared, the ground rumbled and the sky cracked. The violent aura and the peerless killing intent emitted by Yazi caused purple snowflakes to fall in this world.
Fan Shishuang suddenly retreated. From Xu Qing's gaze and what he had heard in the outside world about Xu Qing being killed by Ji Dongzi, he immediately determined that the other party had come here for Ji Dongzi.
It had nothing to do with him.
At the same time that he retreated, a rumbling sound rang out from Ji Dongzi's body. He also moved.
He quickly performed a series of hand seals with both hands and retreated rapidly. His combat strength at the perfected Nihility Realm rose from his body.
As the heaven's chosen ranked second, even though Xu Qing gave him a great sense of oppression, he didn't have the habit of submitting without fighting.
Moreover, he was very clear that since Xu Qing had found this place, this battle was definitely a life-and-death situation!
In an instant, the sky that was already covered in cracks shattered. A huge finger landed from within and instantly approached Xu Qing.
This finger had a majestic aura, as though it had the power to destroy the world. It also contained all of Ji Dongzi's combat strength, countless laws, and his Dao marks.
It deformed the void and headed straight for Xu Qing with an overwhelming force.
Xu Qing was calm. Facing the incoming finger, he lifted his right hand and pushed gently. With a boom, the huge finger actually stopped in front of him.
It was even lifted up. The cracking sound surpassed thunder and echoed.
This terrifying finger actually deformed from the middle and was broken by Xu Qing!
At the next moment, the second, third, fourth, and fifth fingers occupied the sky and descended one after another.
Back then, Ji Dongzi had displayed this move to Xu Qing. At that time, Xu Qing had paid a huge price and used all his divine arts before he could barely deal with them one by one. However, he was also heavily injured and had no choice but to display Fishing the Moon From the Well.
But now, it was different.
Xu Qing took his fourth step.
As cracking sounds rang out one after another, the four fingers that arrived couldn't stop Xu Qing at all. All of them were broken by him.
Facing this scene, Ji Dongzi's expression was solemn. As he retreated, he performed another series of hand seals. In an instant, the sky darkened behind the five broken fingers and a huge palm blotted out the sky as it slapped toward Xu Qing.
Xu Qing lifted his head and looked at the vast palm. Gray fog appeared in his eyes.
The fog grew thicker and thicker. In the blink of an eye, it rose from his body and headed straight for his palm.
As the two sides collided, the palm couldn't land and was forced back under the impact. At the next moment, the fog rapidly condensed into a gray nail that pierced through the palm, dragging it down to the ground.
The ground quaked intensely. This huge palm was nailed to the ground by the nail.
No matter how Ji Dongzi tried to control it, the palm couldn't break free.
Xu Qing retracted his gaze and looked at Ji Dongzi whose expression had changed. He didn't say a word and took his fifth step.
When he reappeared, he was already 1000 feet in front of Ji Dongzi.
Ji Dongzi's breathing was hurried and his entire body instantly turned red. Many blood figures flew out of his body, forming a blood lake. Moreover, the blood figures inside continued to collapse, causing the range of the blood lake to continue to increase explosively as they moved toward Xu Qing.
As for himself, he quickly rose into the air. His expression distorted and the killing intent in his eyes was intense as he spread his hands. Immediately, more blood and blood figures erupted from his body.
In the blink of an eye, a vast sea of blood emerged around him, with an astonishing range that extended beyond sight, covering the sky and turning the entire world into a crimson hue.
"Suppress!"
In the center of the blood sea, Ji Dongzi, who was almost invisible amidst the crimson waves, let out a deep shout and lowered his hands. Immediately, the terrifying blood sea around him pressed down upon the earth.
Back then, Xu Qing had been defeated by this move because it had exceeded the limit of his blood authority. Even though he managed to escape in the end, he had suffered serious injuries.
When he saw it again, Xu Qing lifted his head and stared at the red sea falling from the sky. He then lifted his right hand and grabbed at the red sea.
His cultivation base surged through his entire body and his divine sense spread in all directions. The nine heads of Jiuli left his body and roared at the world.
Under such extreme enhancement, Xu Qing's blood authority immediately surpassed the limit rear then and was pushed to an even higher level.
The sea of blood that blotted out the sky instantly churned, forming a huge vortex. The source of this vortex was Xu Qing's raised palm!
The surging sea of blood continued to rotate and gather in Xu Qing's palm, becoming smaller and smaller.
Looking at this scene, the hearts of all the observing cultivators shook again.
In the end, under everyone's gaze, the boundless sea in the sky actually transformed into a spinning blood sphere in Xu Qing's palm.
It emitted a dazzling red light that dyed the world red. One would feel a piercing pain in their soul when they looked at it, as though they could hear countless wails.
There was also a terrifying aura spinning inside that was filled with instability, as though it could explode at any moment and form a calamity!
This spectacle caused lightning to explode in Ji Dongzi's mind and his body and soul shook. He couldn't hide the horror in his heart anymore. When it emerged in his eyes, Xu Qing's index finger flicked the terrifying blood sphere.
In an instant, the blood sphere, carrying an aura of annihilation, burst forth with tremendous force. Everywhere it passed, it left behind corrosive bloodstains in the void, resembling scars upon the heavens, heading straight for Ji Dongzi!
