631 Ling’er, Don’t Be Afraid, I’ll Bring You Home
Under the dim sky, Xu Qing’s figure stood at the top of the flesh mountain that was filled with divine might and stared at the sky.
The moment his gaze landed on Ling’er’s soul body, the little white snake in his sea of consciousness also opened its eyes. It sensed something and let out a sound.
“Gurgle, gurgle…”
As the soul voice of the same source appeared, Ling’er’s soul in the air trembled and wanted to lift her head to sense it.
However, the 18 green fog dragons and snakes in the surroundings suddenly swam around and emitted dense luck, forming a shackling force that blocked Ling’er’s senses.
!!
The moment luck burst forth, the little white snake in Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness instinctively emitted a hint of desire.
These dragons and snakes were formed from the luck of the Ancient Spirit Race.
Their appearances were clear and their scales emitted green light and were lifelike.
Even though they were cursed by the Heavenly Dao, according to legends, the Ancient Spirit Race was the Heavenly Fate Race that gathered luck in the Wanggu Continent. Hence, even now, there was still a heavenly fate that belonged to them.
A sharp glint appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes. Since Ling’er’s soul couldn’t be summoned back, he directly rushed toward Ling’er’s soul.
The dragons and snakes formed by the green luck immediately let out threatening roars.
It was as though as long as the emperor gave the order, they would instantly devour Xu Qing.
Xu Qing wasn’t moved and continued to approach Ling’er’s soul. The power of the Purple Moon spread out as well. Those dragons and snakes were restless but they had no choice but to retreat.
As they retreated, the shackles dissipated.
Ling’er’s soul no longer trembled. When her origin perception returned, Xu Qing’s figure appeared in front of her.
He immediately took Ling’er’s soul without hesitation.
The instant they came into contact, the black light outside Ling’er’s soul dissipated. As for the little white snake in Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness, it appeared outside Xu Qing’s body under the attraction of the same source and flew into the space between Ling’er’s brows.
Ling’er’s body shook and her eyelashes trembled slightly. She slowly lifted her head and the first thing she saw was Xu Qing’s figure.
“Brother Xu Qing… Is this a dream…”
Ling’er’s face was filled with confusion. After muttering, her soul body felt waves of weakness. Clearly, she had left her body for too long and couldn’t hold on much longer.
“Ling’er, don’t be afraid. I’ll bring you home.”
The moment the jade slip shattered, outside the Ancient Spirit Emperor Great World, in the Wood Spirit Race in Fenghai County, the body of the old man who had been anxiously waiting at the edge of the altar above the Spirit Abyss for several days suddenly trembled.
His haggard face and all his wrinkles shook, as though there was a power called hope rising from all over his body. His bloodshot eyes instantly revealed an unprecedented brightness.
He quickly performed a series of hand seals. His body shook and his heartbeat sped up. At this moment, the blood in his entire body flowed rapidly, stimulating the sealing power in his bloodline.
There were also streams of spiritual energy that belonged to the Wood Spirit Race. At this moment, the roots of the large trees in the basin spread out and rapidly gathered toward the old man.
The old man’s eyes turned red. The blood vessels in his body instantly bulged and his head split open. Countless tentacles danced and broke off on their own!
Large amounts of blood spurted out from the tentacles and gathered in front of the old man, forming a 30-foot-long lump of blood that kept squirming.
“Activate!!”
Amidst the rumbling, the blood lump spun rapidly and locked onto the jade slip’s guidance, tearing open a small and narrow gap!
It connected to the location of the jade slip!
Endless death energy immediately spread out from the gap and filled the surroundings. Through this gap, the old man saw Ling’er in Xu Qing’s arms!
This gap was extremely unstable and couldn’t be maintained for long. It was already starting to close.
At this moment, the crack in the sky above Xu Qing suddenly shook. The eye of the Spirit Emperor seemed to be about to open.
Xu Qing’s expression changed. He could sense a divine might that was even more terrifying and astonishing than before was being released right now.
The world was blurry and everything was distorted. As the eye slowly opened, a fluctuation of awakening spread violently.
All the corpses and the evil souls knelt down.
Xu Qing felt an unprecedented intense pain and was barely able to hold on by relying on the Purple Moon’s power.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Xu Qing retreated without the slightest hesitation, approaching the gap that the old man from Panquan Road had opened behind him.
The gap was extremely unstable at this moment and was rapidly disappearing. From it came the anxious shout of the old man.
“Ling’er!!”
Xu Qing immediately sent the unconscious Ling’er’s soul into the gap.
After that, he stood in front of the gap and Ling’er. He used his body to block the monstrous divine might emitted by the Spirit Emperor’s eye that was gradually opening in the sky.
Xu Qing felt his body tearing apart even more intensely. He was injured all over his body and blood flowed out rapidly. However, his obstruction played a key role.
The old man grabbed Ling’er’s soul. He seemed to want to save Xu Qing too but it was too late now. He could only retract his hand. Almost at the instant he retracted his hand, the gap couldn’t be maintained and collapsed and dissipated.
Xu Qing smiled.
His pale face revealed a smile for the first time since he arrived in this great world filled with death.
He was aware that the gap had become too small and he couldn’t pass through it himself. However, it didn’t matter. He had succeeded.
He found Ling’er’s soul and sent her out safely.
At that moment, the crack in the sky completely opened!
An incomparably huge yellow vertical pupil appeared in the sky, staring at Xu Qing.
At this moment, the endless corpses and souls in the surroundings lowered their heads and let out fanatical shouts.
“Emperor!”
The deafening sound spread throughout the world.
They weren’t the only ones. The dragon heads in the fog in the sky, the giant snakes that were moving on the ground, the terrifying figures in the underworld river, and the countless war chariot fiends in the distance also let out deep shouts the moment the eye opened.
“Emperor!!”
In the sky, the huge eye was filled with indifference. The surroundings of the dim yellow pupil were burning with black flames.
A pressure comparable to that of a god enveloped the great world.
The injuries on Xu Qing’s body erupted uncontrollably.
It was as though the Spirit Emperor’s ability could magnify all injuries by several times in an instant. This was also the source of tearing.
Facing It, the more serious one’s injuries were, the greater the reaction. Under the effect of this strange power, even light injuries would become serious injuries in the blink of an eye.
Moreover, because the tearing continued, it was equivalent to the body being cut open layer by layer.
One could imagine that with this ability, when the Spirit Emperor was at his peak, it would definitely be extremely difficult for those enemies to deal with him. They couldn’t be injured at all. As long as they were slightly injured, their injuries would instantly be enhanced to the extreme.
Xu Qing’s body continued to collapse under the tearing. His flesh separated piece by piece, but were being forcefully pieced together by the Purple Moon’s power.
The intense pain from this process surged like a huge wave, especially the feeling of his flesh being squeezed. It turned into a heart-wrenching trembling. However, the right hand he raised didn’t loosen at all and grabbed even tighter.
He lifted his head with great difficulty and looked at the Spirit Emperor!
In an instant, endless information directly rushed into Xu Qing’s mind. It continued to fill, explode, and churn in his mind.
This information was chaotic and contained cruelty and madness. Xu Qing’s head bulged as though it was about to explode.
There was also a terrifying will that swept through Xu Qing’s mind, shaking his sea of consciousness as though it wanted to crush his soul. The power of the Poison Restriction rose to resist it.
The mosasaur let out a roar and rose from the Sixth Heavenly Palace to block it as well.
As the mosasaur appeared, this extremely powerful will paused slightly. Clearly, it had recognized the Heavenly Dao on the mosasaur.
A divine sense that was like lightning echoed indifferently in Xu Qing’s heart.
“The Crimson Goddess Source in your hand should have been plundered.”
The blood vessels in Xu Qing’s eyes had now turned into cracks and blood flowed out of the corner of his eyes. He looked at the blurry giant eye above and spoke hoarsely.
“So what?”
As he spoke, the Purple Moon light in Xu Qing’s right hand erupted again. The Fourth Heavenly Palace in his body shook violently and the Purple Moon in the sky shone with the same moonlight. At the edge… it began to turn red.
This redness was spreading.
It was as though behind the Purple Moon, an incomparably dense blood color was enveloping it from outside the world.
“Either let me leave or we’ll die together!” Xu Qing said word by word with great difficulty.
Although the countless information he passively obtained from looking at the giant eye made his head feel like it was about to explode and he felt an intense sense of madness, he more or less obtained some understanding from this information.
Gods could devour each other.
Once the Red Moon descended, with the current state of the Spirit Emperor, he would indeed become food.
This information caused Xu Qing to be certain that his threat would definitely be effective.
He was already unable to hold on anymore. The intense pain in his body and the endless chaotic information in his mind made him feel like the world was spinning. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Purple Moon’s power had become a signal at this moment and was being intensified by something to an extreme degree, his body and soul would have long been destroyed.
However, the gaze of the gigantic eye in the sky was still intense. Xu Qing made up his mind and spoke in a low voice.
“Red Moon, Red Moon…”
As Xu Qing called out, the color of the sky changed. Large patches of red spots directly formed in the sky. There were more and more of them and they began to stretch, wanting to connect together.
This was Xu Qing taking the initiative to summon the Red Moon!
Using his authority to take the initiative to summon was on a completely different level from the passive guidance earlier.
The sky was bright red.
The huge eye instantly narrowed and hurried breathing echoed in the world. Shock and anger transformed into a shout that contained suppressed emotions.
“Scram!”
