1090 Long Time No See, Xu Qing!
The captain grabbed the scroll while laughing and tossed it to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing caught it. When he heard this, he immediately suppressed it in the world fragment.
Imprinting the fingerprint that contained karma with it on it, using the captain’s skin to seal it, and then using the great world fragment that was originally its own to suppress it.
All of this process was based on karma.
This suppression was extremely stable.
Especially when the Nether Race’s ancestor had suffered a serious injury and lost 60% of his strength. Under this suppression, the remaining 40% couldn’t cause any waves.
It had to be said that the captain had made ample preparations for this battle against Crimson Goddess.
However… in the eyes of the Ancient Spirit Emperor, this was snatching food from His mouth!
Hence, His gaze looked over unkindly at this moment. He wasn’t full yet.
However, He also understood that this was just an appetizer. He snorted coldly and looked at the mud figures fighting against the heir and the others.
These figures had lost their divine will after the Nether Race’s ancestor was sealed. They turned into ordinary mud and were blasted into ashes.
After that, everyone’s gaze landed on the Moon Palace’s gate at the same time.
There was no longer the totem face there.
However, all the existences here knew that even without the gate god, this gate wouldn’t be easy to open.
The captain laughed and puffed out his chest as he took a step forward.
“Seniors, spread out a little and please guard us. I’m the most experienced in opening doors. Junior Brother, you don’t have to do anything this time. I’ll blast open this gate myself!”
As he spoke, the captain lifted his right hand. Immediately, nine artificial suns danced out of his hand.
These nine suns emitted golden flames that emitted the aura of gods’ aura. That fire… was the divine fire that absorbed the Divine Son. With the enhancement of this fire, these nine artificial suns were nine miniature versions of the Sun of Dawn!
Although they didn’t know about the Sun of Dawn, the heir and the others had already sensed how terrifying these nine artificial suns were, so they spread out.
The Ancient Spirit Emperor took a few more glances before hiding again.
“Little Dumpling!”
At the next instant, one of the nine artificial suns suddenly flew out. The burning of its flames instantly reached the extreme. A terrifying aura erupted from within as it charged toward the Moon Palace’s gate like a golden meteor.
“Protect me!” The captain was like a child who had lit a firecracker. He retreated crazily and headed straight for Xu Qing.
He was aware that staying near Xu Qing was the safest. After all, there was a high chance that the heir and the others wouldn’t protect him, but they would definitely protect Xu Qing.
This was indeed the case. With a sway, Old Ninth stood in front of Xu Qing again. He lifted the sword in his hand and stood forward. The heir and the others also arrived quickly.
The instant they appeared, the meteor touched the gate.
A deafening sound surged into the sky and the entire Red Moon Star trembled intensely. The world distorted and everything became blurry.
One could only faintly see the artificial star exploding on the gate of the Moon Palace. The golden flames inside instantly swept through the entire gate and enveloped the Moon Palace, fighting against the red light.
The aura it emitted shook even the heir and his siblings. They felt a threat from the eruption of the artificial sun.
In particular, the power of the divine fire emitted by it revealed a terrifying intent. The Moon Palace quivered and the echoing fluctuations were like a storm, instantly covering the Red Moon Star.
Although this storm was blocked to a certain range by the heir and the others, it bypassed them and fanned out to affect other parts.
The sound was so loud that it spread throughout the Moon Worship Region.
It was only after a long time that the storm weakened. Xu Qing immediately raised his head and looked over.
The Moon Palace still stood high above. The golden flames on it were extinguished and the red light spread again. As for the gate… although a deep dent had appeared, it still didn’t open.
The captain suddenly jumped up. His eyes revealed madness as he shouted.
“Mid Dumpling!”
In the blink of an eye, an artificial sun that was several times larger than the first sun soared into the sky with a buzzing sound. It was also burning with golden flames but its aura was much more majestic than the Little Dumpling from before.
It headed straight for the Moon Palace’s gate.
An even more earth-shattering sound erupted which seemed to replace all the sounds in the world, including its aftershock.
The Red Moon Star quivered and the Moon Worship Region rumbled. Even other regions could hear this earth-shattering explosion.
In fact, the divine fire that erupted this time dyed the Red Moon golden in that instant. Although the gate of the Moon Palace contained divine might, cracks still appeared under the direct bombardment at such a close distance.
The captain was excited and his eyes were filled with anticipation. Xu Qing also stared at the gate.
However, at this moment, a familiar cold snort rang out from the Moon Palace’s gate.
As the cold snort echoed, the divine fire that expand to the gate was instantly extinguished. It was the same for the divine fire that filled the Moon Palace. The flames that enveloped the entire Red Moon Star were instantly extinguished by this cold snort.
Only Old Ninth’s entire body emitted a baleful aura as he slashed forward.
An explosive sound rang out as Old Ninth’s sword landed in the air, cutting through the invisible force and neutralizing the pressure. However, as the sword slashed down, the body of the sword couldn’t withstand it and shattered into pieces.
Old Ninth was expressionless. He raised his hand and grabbed, and a second sword appeared in his hand. After that, he looked up and stared at the Moon Palace’s gate.
The captain’s eyes flickered with blue light as the remaining seven artificial suns began to burn.
He had already recognized that cold snort.
Xu Qing also naturally recognized it. Amidst the silence, the Moon Palace’s gate that had yet to be opened slowly opened inwards.
It opened quietly.
It wasn’t just a crack; it swung wide open, like it was awaiting the entry of everyone.
Through the opened gate, they could see the Moon Palace inside. It wasn’t a hall but a blood-red sea.
This sea was vast and endless, with waves surging from it. Blood light illuminated the sky and everything.
In this sea of red, the most prominent features were the towering colossal figures standing on the sea.
One figure looked like a human but had three heads and six arms. There were also those who looked extremely bizarre. For example, one of them was completely made of bones and was extremely tall.
There was also one whose entire body was enveloped in tentacles, like a lump of irregular flesh.
There was one that was made of fog. Countless tiny fingers could be seen inside.
These figures had different appearances and were completely different from the myriad races outside.
Every one of them carried the aura of god, and emitted extremely terrifying energy that filled the blood sea.
If any one of them appeared outside, they would definitely cause a storm of blood in the Wanggu Continent.
This was because they… were all gods!
A total of 37!
In fact, Xu Qing even saw the god of the Immortal Forbidden Land!
That god’s main body was a fish. Its current appearance was the same as in Xu Qing’s memories.
According to Their auras, at least ten of these 37 gods far surpassed It. There were also two who… gave Xu Qing the feeling that They were equal to Crimson Goddess. Their divine might was so vast that his mind felt like it would collapse.
Moreover, They weren’t corporeal and were just projections!
This place was a hell for gods.
“It’s different from when I entered the Moon Palace back then. This Moonlight Sea should be in the depths but it appeared early now…”
“The existences in the Moonlight Sea are all projections of the gods that Crimson Goddess devoured!”
As the captain spoke in a low voice, Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed. His gaze landed in the depths of the Moonlight Sea. There… a huge flower slowly appeared in the air surrounded by the projections of these 37 gods.
This flower was peerlessly beautiful, but this beauty exuded a sense of death.
The bright red color, the scattered stamens, and the curved flower leaves swayed between heaven and earth. There was also a faint tune drifting from there.
The flower gradually bloomed.
The petals slowly expand open.
At this moment, the entire world was filled with the smell of blood, sweet and pungent.
From afar, it looked like the claws of a malicious ghost, slowly reaching out to all lives.
And inside this blood-colored flower, a figure sat cross-legged.
This figure was a man. His eyes were closed and He didn’t move at all, as though He was in a deep sleep.
His long red hair cascaded around Him, spreading over His body, extending into the flower petals and hanging below the blossoms.
The strands of hair intertwined with the flower stamens, blurring the distinction between them and enhancing the beauty of the flower.
His red robe also fused the man’s existence with this red spider lily, as if… they were inherently one.
As for his peerlessly beautiful face, coupled with his ethereal temperament, if Xu Qing didn’t know Him, he might find it hard to tell if He was a man or a woman.
This was because this beauty had reached the extreme of life. Or rather, it was a beauty of death that living creatures couldn’t possess.
It was the same as this flower.
Atop this person’s blood-red hair, there rested a crown of thorns. The thorns grew seamlessly within the flesh, natural and yet perfect.
The thorny crown moved, weaving a tapestry of anguished faces, constantly changing, each one unique but emitting the same silent wail of sorrow.
This wail was the music that echoed here.
“Zhang Siyun…”
This person was none other than Zhang Siyun!
Xu Qing wasn’t surprised to see the other party here.
However, although he wasn’t familiar with Zhang Siyun, they had interacted a little after all. Back then, he had even personally seen the other party being possessed by Crimson Goddess. After devouring the Immortal Forbidden god, He walked into the Red Moon.
The instant Xu Qing’s gaze landed on Zhang Siyun, Zhang Siyun’s eyelashes fluttered slightly. His eyes… slowly opened.
His blood-colored eyes emitted cold intent. Those were the eyes of Crimson Goddess, but they also contained Zhang Siyun’s own aura.
“Long time no see, Xu Qing.”
