Chapter 1058: Sticking Rain Seals the Heavens and Earth

~12 min read 2,239 words

At the same time, in the place where the fierce battle occurred before.

This place was desolate.

The desolate mountain had collapsed, all things destroyed, and thick technique fluctuations remained.

Xu Qing stood in mid-air, his expression cold and stern, gazing into the distance, his eyes flickering slightly.

"Wind and fire are this person's authority..."

"This is the first time I have encountered someone with dual authority in the Fifth Star Ring; it can be seen that this one is a genius!"

"Especially since this person's means are hidden and his intelligence is not low; he is a formidable enemy!"

Xu Qing's mind recalled the way the opponent hid, that way of sticking his true body to the wall of the storage space, existing between virtual and real as if they were one; this was also extremely novel to Xu Qing.

"I don't know how he achieved this point."

"It is possible he used some spatial... If it weren't for this Quasi-Immortal Capital Token being able to sense each other, I fear it would have been very difficult for me to see the clues at the first moment when encountering this person's means."

Xu Qing felt wary in his heart.

He felt that his caution still had some loopholes when viewed now.

"In the future, whenever I finish killing and take storage items, I must pay more attention."

Xu Qing reviewed rapidly in his heart, then put away the burning incense and the treasure tree.

The burning incense had extinguished following the death of the opponent's clone, and the remaining part could still be used.

As for the treasure tree, it was damaged by the self-destruct before and was now somewhat broken; Xu Qing also had no way to repair it.

"But it can barely self-destruct one more time."

After Xu Qing put away these two items and the Four-Nine Formation Restriction beast skin, he was about to leave this place.

He did not think that the opponent would continue to come after fleeing.

After all, the opponent was a smart person; in the early stage of the second phase of the Quasi-Immortal Capital Token hunting, he would likely not force an attack after realizing the enemy was not weak.

At this time, preserving strength and not easily letting oneself get injured was the optimal method.

Unless neither side had a chance to escape and they held a life-and-death grudge.

Otherwise, Xu Qing felt that if it were him, he would also not continue.

But just as Xu Qing was about to leave, he suddenly paused, a look of surprise appearing on his expression.

"Coming again?"

Within his token's sensing range, the star mark located hundreds of thousands of li away, after appearing, actually went against Xu Qing's judgment and did not leave.

Instead, it was approaching him rapidly.

Xu Qing's brows furrowed slightly; this phenomenon made him feel something was wrong.

But soon, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and killing intent rose in his heart.

"Since you have come, then this battle... let's just fight it out."

Xu Qing's body flickered, and he did not fly toward the direction the opponent was coming from, but sped backward.

The desolate land under his feet had already had all its traps triggered before and was no longer the best battlefield, so Xu Qing whistled through the sky and soon locked onto a high peak filled with green plants.

This peak shot straight into the clouds, surrounded by clouds and mist, and the mountain was rich in vegetation.

Standing on the summit, Xu Qing waited silently.

The opponent's arrival was somewhat strange, so Xu Qing would not rush in head-on.

He had to guard against the opponent setting up traps.

And the way to not enter the opponent's battlefield was to find one himself that the opponent had not been to since appearing.

This mountain, while having a wide field of view, also had mist lingering below, suitable to be a battlefield.

At the same time, Xu Qing did not waste time, waving his hand to spread out the Five Elements authority.

Fire in the sky, water hidden in the mist and clouds, earth contained in the mountain peak, metal in the body, wood nourishing all plants.

And this time, Xu Qing did not wait too long; clearly, the youth with the birthmark on his face, after noticing Xu Qing's means, did not give him time, moving all the way.

With astonishing speed, crossing a range of millions of li, and in the situation where Xu Qing did not move far away simultaneously, he soon... appeared on the horizon Xu Qing was gazing at.

In the horizon, beneath the crimson aurora, there was first the roaring sound of wind and thunder.

Subsequently, what entered Xu Qing's eyes, besides the red of the aurora, were five colors!

Black, green, yellow, blue, purple!

These five colors came from five huge banners, each a full several hundred zhang in size.

They spread in the sky, and wherever they passed, it seemed as if the colors of heaven and earth were gathered, cutting the gaze.

Five colors occupied everything.

There was even vast power erupting within, and what was importantly affected was the Five Elements power in all directions!

Clearly, after the battle with Xu Qing before, on one hand, Xu Qing had some understanding of this opponent, and the opponent had also realized Xu Qing's means.

So the moment he arrived, he first had to suppress Xu Qing's Five Elements.

Almost the moment Xu Qing looked over, the five-colored banners whistled, sweeping five-colored light, and appeared directly at the summit of the mountain peak where Xu Qing was.

Five colors erupted, exuding the power to invert the Five Elements, enveloping this mountain peak and circling rapidly.

Viewed from afar, it was like a five-colored storm.

The rumbling sound was earth-shattering again, deafening.

Killing intent flashed in Xu Qing's eyes; with a wave of his hand, the Five Elements he had set up in the surroundings erupted again.

Water rose from the clouds, wood grew from all plants.

Fire appeared from the sky, earth collapsed from the mountain body.

Accompanied by Xu Qing's rising killing intent, the Five Elements moved together.

Even though the five banners were not ordinary and formed a five-colored storm that could invert the Five Elements power in all directions, here... they could not shake Xu Qing's Five Elements too much.

Because Xu Qing's Five Elements were contained in his own five internal organs, and their source was not within the rules and laws of the outside world.

So the next instant, the sound became even more intense, and the rumbling sound spread to all directions.

Xu Qing's Five Elements authority and the five-colored storm confronted each other, clearly in the upper hand, and the five colors also dimmed rapidly, as if they would be suppressed by Xu Qing before long.

It was just that this time, Xu Qing's opponent was extraordinary.

The youth who arrived at this place after the five-colored storm did not kill him personally, but watched from outside the battlefield, a cold, sinister smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

He pointed with one finger.

Silently reciting the Dao sound in his heart.

"Heaven as the boundary, space as the curtain, five colors rendering, ten thousand laws in one painting!"

As this finger fell, the five banners that were struggling to confront Xu Qing's Five Elements authority suddenly trembled and actually self-destructed in the blink of an eye.

Five colors self-destructed, and the storm swept.

Causing the five colors to merge!

Viewed from afar, the five colors actually turned from light into substance, as if they had become five-colored paint, mixed together, and splashed into mid-air by the storm.

It seemed to have become a... colorful painting!

And in this painting, there was Xu Qing.

As for the painter, it was wind!

Wind was also seal!

This seal was hidden within the five colors, erupting completely at this moment, forming a sealing power against the Five Elements.

"Let you know, although your Five Elements are fierce, wind is above the Five Elements!"

"Great wind rises, can roll earth, can extinguish water, can wither wood, can grind metal, can descend fire!"

"Seal, seal, seal, seal, seal!"

The youth formed seals with both hands, changing constantly, pointing five times in succession.

Suddenly, the five-colored paint became even more chaotic, merging with each other, enveloping Xu Qing within, becoming a seal.

This seal was rolling, extinguishing, withering, grinding, descending, and even more so, isolating.

Isolating Xu Qing's five internal organs, isolating Xu Qing's Five Elements.

This battle moved Xu Qing.

"This person's authority... has been developed by him to near perfection!"

"But I used spatial Dao before; it is impossible for him not to know, so what is the point of doing this?"

As Xu Qing pondered, he waved his hand.

Suddenly, Scooping the Moon from the Well reappeared.

All directions were reflected within.

And this time, what Xu Qing scooped was not the opponent, but himself.

In an instant, following the eruption of the 'Scooping the Moon from the Well' technique, Xu Qing had already pulled himself out of that five-colored seal.

Appearing outside the painting curtain, outside the five colors, outside the mountain peak!

The moment he appeared, the sky rumbled, blue light erupted, and a huge stone hammer appeared within, smashing toward Xu Qing hard.

Xu Qing's Emperor Sword came out.

The earth trembled, the mountain peak collapsed, and earth power surged up.

One sword, Earth Hidden.

Slashed the stone hammer.

The heavens and earth twisted, the void blurred, and the deafening sound exploded.

The Earth Sword rushed into the sky, and the hammer falling from the sky trembled suddenly, appearing with several cracks, directly rolling back.

As for the Earth Sword itself, it also slowly dissipated in the sky under the recoil of the distance, re-transforming into earth qi, sweeping all directions.

Xu Qing moved, heading straight for the youth.

Seeing that his two means were both broken by Xu Qing, the youth with the birthmark on the right side of his face contracted his eyes, becoming more certain of his previous judgment.

At this moment, his body retreated rapidly, while he narrowed his eyes and waved his hand.

Throwing out an object.

This object was like a lump of mud, appearing to contain some kind of spatial energy, and wherever it passed, it drew a ripple mark in mid-air.

Then, in the youth's mind, authority erupted between him and Xu Qing.

First was fire authority, instantly falling on the object containing spatial energy.

This object was clearly sensitive to fire, melting instantly, and an explosive force came from within.

With a boom, it actually exploded directly, enveloping the surroundings, falling from the sky like rainwater.

This rain was sticky.

At the same time it fell, the youth's second authority also unfolded.

A great wind blew.

Making the sticky rainwater, at this moment, dry and solidify rapidly, becoming... glue!

Within the range of all directions, as long as it was within the rainwater, it was like this, being solidified rapidly.

This was also a seal.

Using the stickiness he created to glue and seal the heavens and earth.

And Xu Qing, at this moment, also realized how the opponent had stuck his true body to the wall of the storage space before.

His judgment was correct; the opponent indeed used a special item.

But he also didn't expect one thing.

That was the method the opponent used for this special item!

"Combining two authorities, cooperating with other items, to achieve the effect of a third authority!"

"This person is indeed a genius!"

Xu Qing took a deep breath, his thoughts fluctuating; this battle... for him, was of great significance.

It triggered many of his thoughts.

"Placed on my Five Elements, my changes can be even more!"

However, Xu Qing knew it was not the time for deep thought; the opponent's series of actions in this battle had already revealed a piece of information.

"He doesn't want to fight me head-on! He doesn't want to get injured because of this, he just wants to restrict me, to seal me!"

"Every move since returning in this battle has been like this, and even to achieve this goal, he didn't hesitate to expose his own secrets..."

"All of this has only one answer."

"He is stalling for time!"

Rising along with this judgment was a strong sense of crisis.

"He has helpers, on the way here, and they are even more formidable than him!"

A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing's eyes.

"If it goes on like this, it will be hard to end in a short time, so... I cannot keep the sword qi, I must end the battle quickly!"

At the same time, some distance away from this battlefield, a figure was currently moving through the sky, churning with terrifying aura using the method of shifting.

This figure was exactly the red-haired youth who appeared at the spirit mine!

The cultivation fluctuation of the late Sovereign realm erupted on him to the heavens.

"Destroying my spirit mine, killing my spirit mine guardian, causing me to lose that battle, and even taking away the Quasi-Immortal Capital Token contributed by Ling Feng!"

"I want to see what kind of dragon heart and phoenix gall you ate to dare to act like this!" ===== CHAPTER 1061 =====
