1074 Nine Suns Covering the Sky
The momentum gathered before the war needed to be used in one go; otherwise, it would inevitably decline and exhaust. The current Moon Rebel cultivators were in such a situation.
“Kill!”
It was unknown who let out the shout, but soon, everyone instinctively opened their mouths and let out a shout that came from their souls, as though they wanted to vent the pain and unwillingness of their lives with this word.
At this moment, reason was no longer important. Strategy was insignificant in the face of this momentum.
Everyone turned into an ordinary man, and when an ordinary man was enraged, blood would splatter everywhere!
The reality was already in front of them. Crimson Goddess was about to arrive and it was already a situation of certain death. Now, there was hope, and it was the greatest hope in the countless years.
Even the most timid person would have the courage to rebel.
Moreover, how could those who could enter the Moon Rebel Hall not have courage? After all, the test of the Moon Rebel Hall had already eliminated too many people who didn’t meet the requirements.
The color of the world in the Bitter Life Mountain Range changed. The shouts of the Moon Rebel cultivator devoured mountains and rivers, shaking the sky.
Seeing this, Xu Qing took a deep breath and stepped into the Moon Rebel Hall. The captain also entered at the same time. The instant the two of them entered, the Moon Rebel Mirror, which had transformed into the sky, shimmered with brilliance.
A teleportation fluctuation erupted from within.
This was another ability of the Moon Rebel Hall that only the Lord of Moon Rebel could use—an extensive, large-scale teleportation within the entire Moon Worship Region.
At that moment, the teleportation rumbled and the captain’s voice echoed from the Moon Rebel Hall.
“All statues, return to your positions!”
As his voice rang out, the statues of the Moon Rebel cultivators in the outside world headed straight for the Moon Rebel Hall with killing intent and determination. Among them were Li Xiaoshan, Divine Sparrow, and the unsealed cultivators.
As for the heir and the others, they didn’t need to step into the Moon Rebel Hall. To them, they could head anywhere in this large region with a thought.
The ordinary cultivators of the Bitter Life Mountain Range weren’t asked to participate in this war. Hence, under the gazes of Ning Yan, Ling’er, and the others, the sky fluctuated and the Moon Rebel Mirror instantly disappeared.
It headed to the Repentance Plain where the Red Moon’s headquarters was located.
Speed was the most important thing in war!
…
The plains stretched far and wide. As one looked around, there were no mountain ranges in sight. The land was covered with red grass, and when the wind blew, the grassland rippled like a red sea.
The lake water was like blood, emitting a dense smell of blood. It looked like it was the same as the water in the Sacrificial Yin River. In the center of the lake was an island.
An indomitable giant was forcefully suppressed and made to kneel there. Although it was kneeling, its tall body and dense aura still formed a terrifying pressure.
A large number of temples were built around the giant’s feet.
However, everything was enveloped by a red light and couldn’t be seen clearly.
This light came from the sky and the Red Moon Star. From afar, everything on the island was blurry under the envelopment of the red light.
Moreover, it was very different in color from the outside world.
The red color in the other areas was light red. Only this place was specially taken care of and was dark red.
The sky and earth here were red and endless red light gathered on the island, shrouding it in a blood curtain. The aura of Crimson Goddess was exceptionally thick here.
Additionally, unlike in the past, the usual sounds of worship on the island, the continuous chants praising Crimson Goddess, were absent at the moment. The place was silent.
No sound rang out. Only that dense redness replaced everything.
At that moment, the sound of lightning rang out from the sky and broke the silence. As it stirred up endless echoes, the void distorted, as though a colossus wanted to teleport into this dark red color.
However, as the red light flashed, the teleportation failed.
At the next instant, in the air outside the island, the Moon Rebel Mirror suddenly appeared and floated in the air. After it rapidly expanded, many gazes fell from the mirror with astonishing killing intent, staring at the island that was enveloped by the red color.
The figures of the heir and the others also walked out of the void at this moment. They also looked over and their expressions changed.
“The god’s aura…”
Old Ninth’s expression was cold. He raised his right hand and the phantom of a longsword formed in his hand.
This sword was pitch-black and emitted an astonishing baleful aura, causing the world to darken.
He expressionlessly slashed at the dark red blood curtain in front of him.
As soon as this sword slash landed, it seemed to carve through the heavens and the earth. The sky quivered, unleashing an endless storm, and the earth roared, suppressing the surrounding blood lake and creating depressions.
Finally, it landed on the dark blood curtain.
A deafening sound rang out from the blood curtain. The blood light fluctuations inside actually thinned for an instant.
The might of the sword caused waves in everyone’s hearts.
However, at the next moment, their expressions froze when they saw the scene inside the thinning blood curtain.
There was no one on the ground. All the cultivators in Red Moon’s headquarters were sitting cross-legged in the air, surrounding the ruler’s statue as though they were guarding it.
There were so many of them that it was difficult to count them clearly.
Among them, the weakest cultivator was at the Nascent Soul realm and there were many Spirit Repository experts. There were also many Nihility cultivators. Most of them were dressed in the same clothes and wore the blood-red Red Moon robe.
The high priest was also among them. Through the blood curtain, he stared at the cultivators of the Moon Rebel Hall who had arrived.
There were also some affiliated races and sects who were all on guard.
And what they surrounded and protected was none other than the Crimson Goddess’ mortal skin!
The Crimson Goddess’ mortal skin had long spread out. It was like a huge intestine, enveloping the head of the ruler’s statue and the Divine Son’s palace.
It was squirming and beating rhythmically like a heart.
Waves of god’s aura continued to spread out from the Crimson Goddess’ mortal skin. Coupled with its sinister appearance and the blood light that filled the sky, all of this made the scene look extremely bizarre.
“Looks like we came at the right time. Old Fourth is undergoing the god-ascension ritual!”
The heir saw all of this and spoke in a deep voice.
As soon as he spoke, everyone from the Moon Rebel Hall became even more solemn.
At that moment, in the highest hall of the Moon Rebel Hall, the captain’s gaze flickered. Xu Qing frowned because the trembling reminder of the Diamond Sect’s ancestor was echoing in his mind.
“Master, things aren’t looking good. According to what I’ve read, usually, when the protagonist is on the verge of a breakthrough, an antagonist appears to stop them.””
“It feels like we’ve taken the path of the antagonist. In the story books I’ve read, the antagonist never succeeds. It’s always the protagonist who breaks through at the most crucial moment, emerges, and goes on a rampage…”
When Xu Qing heard this, he directly ignored it.
At the same time, Old Eighth, who was beside the heir, impatiently spoke.
“Brother, isn’t that stating the obvious? Who can’t see that? Why bother saying these things? Let’s just go and deal with him!”
As he spoke, he rushed out and instantly got close to the blood curtain. He then clenched his right hand.
The Soul Accumulation energy spread out and a world was formed. As he roared, he punched out.
Killing intent flashed in Princess Mingmei’s eyes. She took a step forward and the River of Time instantly appeared, transforming into a spear. She held it in her hand and swung it fiercely. This spear shuttled through time and descended from the past and present at the same time.
Grandma Five closed her eyes and halos rose above her head. They expanded in circles, enveloping the area before suddenly shrinking and crushing over.
As for the heir, he glared at Old Eighth. With a wave of his hand, his aura erupted and a nail flew out of his body.
This nail’s divine might shook the sky. It was the ruler’s nail.
As soon as it appeared, it carried destructive power as it headed straight for the dark red blood curtain. Wherever it passed, the void would explode.
There was also Old Ninth. He walked forward without saying a word. Black longswords that contained killing intent manifested out of thin air outside his body. Every one of them was enveloped by baleful aura and kept gathering. In the blink of an eye, they formed a rain of swords that blotted out the sky and earth as they whistled toward the dark red light.
Seeing this, the high priest in the dark red blood curtain narrowed his eyes and performed a series of hand seals. Immediately, all the Red Moon cultivators in the surroundings erupted with their cultivation levels and fused their energy with the blood curtain, buffing it and resisting the attacks.
Logically speaking, few protective barriers in this world could resist the attacks of five Soul Accumulation cultivators, the ruler’s nail, and Old Ninth’s swords.
However, the blood red barrier at Red Moon’s headquarters was different.
This barrier was a divine array created by the power of Crimson Goddess and contained the blessings of Crimson Goddess. This was one of the foundations of the Red Moon Shrine. It could block Soul Accumulation just by itself, let alone now that the Red Moon Star was in the sky. Everything was enhanced. Coupled with the cultivators augmenting it…
The blood red barrier rippled, blocking Old Eighth’s punch, resisting the fifth princess’ divine art. Even when Princess Mingmei’s spear pierced through, it only went through a mere three inches.
Even the ruler’s nail couldn’t pierce it.
Only the swords of Old Ninth, after gathering together, finally made a fierce strike. It cut a crack in the light curtain, but in the blink of an eye, under the blessing of Crimson Goddess, the deep red light curtain was instantly restored.
All of this caused the expressions of the heir and the others to turn gloomy. It wasn’t that they were weak, but they couldn’t break through the god’s blessing in an instant.
At that moment, their cultivation bases erupted again. Old Ninth even raised his hand and the murderous aura in his entire body rose intensely at this moment. They were prepared to use their trump cards.
At that moment, the captain’s laughter rang out from the Moon Rebel Hall. He also stepped into the sky.
“Grandpas, grandmas, you don’t need to continue attacking this small divine array. I know this place too well. Let me do it. I’ve been preparing for this for a long time.”
“See how I break this divine array!”
The captain had a proud expression and was also excited. He thought to himself that it was finally his turn to perform. At this moment, he was in high spirits. He raised his right hand and waved it fiercely at the sky.
“Little Dumpling, Mid Dumpling, Big Dumpling, Little Rectangle, Big Rectangle, all the dumplings and rectangles, heed my command, appear!”
As soon as the captain’s voice rang out, the sky trembled. One after another, artificial suns suddenly descended from the clouds. There were a total of five of them, some large and some small. Every one of them was different.
It also included the two suns Xu Qing had seen on the shore back then.
Three rainbows manifested in the distant horizon. There were three more artificial suns who responded to the captain’s summon and hurried over from other races.
Eight suns manifested in the sky, shining and burning at the same time.
Immediately, the weather changed and the entire world suddenly lit up.
“The first thing I did when I arrived to the Moon Worship Region was to collect the suns. All of this was for today!”
The captain had a proud expression as he roared.
“Junior Brother, lend me the sun on your waist!”
Xu Qing strode out of the Moon Rebel Hall. He gazed at the eight suns in the sky and didn’t hesitate at all. He directly removed the iron ball from his waist and threw it into the sky.
As the iron ball was removed, Xu Qing’s aura rumbled and erupted. The relaxed feeling from his entire body caused his eyes to reveal an intense light.
After this iron ball rose into the air, it directly surrounded the other eight suns in the sky and burned. At this moment, the light was even brighter than before.
The captain’s eyes revealed smugness. He raised his hand and waved it again. A strand of hair flew out and headed straight for the sky.
This strand of hair was none other than the hair of the god. It grew larger and larger in the air and finally penetrated the nine suns, stringing them together to form a ring of nine suns.
This ring emitted terrifying energy. It covered the red light of the sky and buried the deep red of the Red Moon.
