Chapter 1136

The God Spirit Blood River was transformed from the blood of many gods beheaded in the Fifth Star Ring back then; inside, besides the Divine Fire Realm, there were also many Divine Platforms, and even many True Gods fell.

Even the God Lords, there were several statues!

Therefore, this river contained extremely rich foreign substances, and there was also monstrous divine resentment and death aura permeating.

Although the entire blood river was suppressed by both sides of the river bank, like a resentful dragon being locked, it was completely imprisoned here.

Making the foreign substances and resentment inside unable to spread in all directions, difficult to invade the outside world, but...

If a cultivator broke into the range of the river water, they would definitely be invaded.

Thereby, body and soul would be like filth, and even bury divine cause and effect, which would have a huge impact on the future.

Unless one possessed the Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor cultivation base, only then would one have the qualification to cross the God Spirit Blood River without relying on a boat.

But it was only a qualification.

Because this kind of crossing existed with huge danger.

This danger, on one hand, came from the pollution of the god aura inside the blood river, and on the other hand, it came from the strangeness inside the blood river.

Too many gods died; in the precipitation of these countless years, no one knew if god-monstrosities had been born in this blood river.

Or, if some even more terrifying existence had appeared.

So even a Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor, when crossing this river, had to be careful and vigilant at all times.

Unless it was necessary to cross the blood river, otherwise, a Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor would not easily walk this path either.

Of course, in the situation where it was necessary to walk, if one could ride a ferry boat, it was naturally best.

Thus, there were ferrymen.

But it looked like ferrying, but it was actually patrolling.

And the ferry boat was their tool!

Each one was a supreme treasure specifically aimed at gods.

Sailing on the blood river, it could naturally emit a suppressing aura.

Ferrying this boat, patrolling the blood river, suppressing god-worship, this was the meaning of the ferryman on this river.

It was also the way they redeemed their sins.

And at this moment, the ferry boat that appeared in front of Xu Qing was the gift left to Xu Qing by the Spirit Phoenix Immortal Maiden!

A boat crafted by the Spirit Phoenix Immortal Maiden's father, Nine Shores Immortal Lord, for his daughter back then.

Gazing at this boat, Xu Qing's gaze was deep.

He understood the true meaning of the Spirit Phoenix Immortal Maiden sending this ferry boat.

"Sending me a retreat..."

Xu Qing whispered in his heart.

This ferry boat was an identity, an identity of ferrying to redeem sins.

Although Xu Qing was not a ferryman now, but if one day in the future, Xu Qing committed a great mistake in this Fifth Star Ring...

Then the retreat brought by this ferry boat crafted by Nine Shores Immortal Lord would become his opportunity to survive.

After a long while, Xu Qing took a deep breath and bowed to the firmament.

Then he lifted his steps, walked forward one step, and stepped onto this pitch-black, dilapidated boat.

The moment he stood there, this boat shook, emitting thick black aura, covering Xu Qing inside.

Until an incense stick of time later, the boat and the person were as if one.

So Xu Qing picked up the coir raincoat, wore it on his body, picked up the bamboo hat, and wore it on his head.

Subsequently, he sat cross-legged.

The aura of time emanated from the coir raincoat and bamboo hat, blended with the black aura, covered Xu Qing, and concealed everything.

Looking from afar, at this moment, he seemed to have truly become a ferryman.

Motionless.

He was waiting, to see if it was possible that a fish would really take the bait.

At the same time, he was also perceiving the internal quality and structure of this boat.

And for boats, Xu Qing was not unfamiliar.

Just like this, time passed.

Ten days passed.

On the bank of the God Spirit Blood River, between heaven and earth, a long rainbow whistled over with astonishing speed...

Inside the long rainbow was a young man.

This young man's face was pale, his body was weak; it was... Star Ring Son!

He ultimately still chose to walk this God Spirit Blood River.

Compared to several other paths, the God Spirit Blood River was not the only one.

But in the dark, he had a premonition that walking the God Spirit Blood River was the safest and most stable.

So, he came.

At this moment, following the approach, that premonition of safety and stability became even more intense, especially after seeing a ferry boat docked on the river bank, his heart relaxed slightly.

This escape journey, whether it was his body or his cultivation base, or his heart and mind, was incomparably exhausted.

Two deaths, although both were replaced by his Star Tower, every time he revived, he would be weaker.

Especially the second death, he was intentional.

At that time, he suspected that he was locked on by Xu Qing in some way, so he decisively chose to pay the price of one life to cut off cause and effect, to erase the traces.

And in order to be real, the price he paid that time was even greater.

Even though ten days had passed now, he still had not recovered.

"Although this God Spirit Blood River, relying on my cultivation base, possesses the qualification to cross, but the current weakness makes my resistance to invasion insufficient, and if I encounter danger from the blood river itself on the blood river, I also lack the power to suppress it."

"So, riding a ferry boat is the best choice."

"Fortunately, I have never ridden one before."

Amidst the thoughts in his heart, Star Ring Son did not reduce his speed; in an instant, the long rainbow he transformed into crossed the void directly, and when he appeared, he was already on the trestle bridge on the bank, and in one step, stepped onto the ferry boat.

The moment he boarded the boat, that absolute sense of safety permeated his whole body, making him let out a long breath.

Subsequently, he bowed respectfully to the figure wearing a coir raincoat and covered in black aura sitting cross-legged in front.

"Seen the Senior, please Senior, open the boat."

The coir raincoat figure did not speak, but the boat shook slightly, slowly sliding away from the bank and sailing into the blood river.

Gradually, it moved away from the trestle bridge.

Until it went deep into the blood river.

Until the scenery on the bank could no longer be seen at all.

In this churning of blood-colored waves, in this howling of the great wind outside the boat, in the thick permeation of the god's foreign substances outside, Star Ring Son's heart and mind completely relaxed.

He sat there, turned his head to gaze at the direction of the Western Star Domain, and a sharp light appeared in his eyes.

He whispered softly.

"Xu Qing, between you and me, there will ultimately be another battle!"

"You are right."

The coir raincoat figure rowing the boat spoke faintly.

Once these words came out, Star Ring Son was stunned for a moment, then turned his head suddenly; his expression changed greatly at this instant, and a sense of incredulity and horror erupted in his heart.

His body even stood up suddenly from sitting cross-legged.

"Your voice, you... you..."

The coir raincoat figure took off the bamboo hat, the black aura on his body churned in all directions, revealing his face.

"Waited for you for a long time."

Star Ring Son's brain roared; at this moment, the sound of waves, the sound of the great wind in heaven and earth, all sounds disappeared, only the roar in his brain, like millions and millions of thunder, exploded at the same time.

He could not believe it, could not believe it, and there was even a sense of absurdity.

The person in front of him was Xu Qing!

And in the dark, the premonition that it would be very safe for him to head to the God Spirit Blood River before reappeared at this moment.

But this time... in this premonition, there seemed to be an old and incomparably familiar voice echoing in his heart.

"Respond to the calamity."

One month later.

On the bank of the God Spirit Blood River in the Southern Star Domain.

A pitch-black, dilapidated ferry boat arrived silently and docked by the trestle bridge.

Only Xu Qing walked off it.

Vaguely, one could see a grain of floating dust drifting around him.

That was... the dust of Heavenly Principle.
