Chapter 1188: Raising Head to Gaze at the Bright Moon
It was indeed corpse touching!
Because during these three months, Xu Qing and his group had already summarized their experience.
Live collection was good, but due to various reasons, it was very hard to increase the speed, so their focus was all on practicing corpse collection.
This was an important skill more suitable for battlefield collection.
After all, what the battlefield had the most of was corpses.
Of course, if there was a more alluring target, and it wasn't a corpse yet, then killing it and turning it into a corpse was...
Thus, in three months, Xu Qing and his group had already improved their corpse collection speed too much.
Now on this giant star battlefield, it could be considered their first time unfolding it without any concealment, and the shock and impact it brought to everyone was naturally intense.
Thus, not only were the remaining Corpse-Touching Teams on the mountain peak dumbfounded, but the cultivator side on the battlefield also had their hearts rippling, and their pressure relatively decreased.
And the battlefield exists in balance; the pressure reduced from the cultivator side all fell on the god side.
This caused those gods, while fighting for their lives with the Nianlin Army cultivators, to also be careful of being sneak-attacked and having their corpses touched.
Looking at it now, these nineteen people, Xu Qing and his group, were like vultures, their hearts like hungry wolves, but their bodies were like ghosts, scattering among them, like nineteen snake-shaped swords, wanting to pierce through the battlefield.
Wherever they passed, corpses withered, weak gods collapsed.
Even powerful gods, if they were slightly negligent and were seized of an opportunity, would face life-and-death crises.
The attention they attracted naturally grew more and more.
Even some gods, under the traction of this aura, after being sneak-attacked, would rather give up fighting with the Nianlin Army cultivators and turn to kill Xu Qing and his group.
But it had to be said, this group of ascenders of Xu Qing's, in all kinds of experiences, now that they had survived, there were no weaklings, and they were especially skilled in life-saving methods.
So often when they were killed by gods they couldn't defeat, they would avoid it at the first opportunity using various methods.
If it were an empty space, or a one-on-one fight, facing a powerful god, their life-saving methods might not have had such a big effect, but now on the battlefield, it was different.
And this kind of attack also brought variables to the originally deadlocked situation on the battlefield.
Even if this variable wasn't big at first, it gradually became like a snowball, becoming more and more vast, becoming a momentum that had to be dealt with!
It was just that... even if the god side's commander immediately passed down a divine decree, trying their best to stabilize the battle situation, and arranged for remaining forces to strengthen the encirclement, the effect was still ordinary.
It was just that Xu Qing and these people were too slippery; clearly not weak themselves, yet they still hid when encountering the strong, sneak-attacked when encountering the weak, and collected when encountering corpses.
Especially Xu Qing there, who did it to the extreme.
His target was only placed on Divine Fire stage gods, with his Quasi-Immortal cultivation, with his terrifying Immortal Embryo power, Divine Fire gods often died in one hit in front of him.
And the corpses, if there was no time to collect them, then he would take them away directly.
This was treating the battlefield as a jungle, treating slaughter as hunting!
And this was something Xu Qing was most skilled at when he was young.
At the same time, during this attack, during this slaughter, the Mud Fox was also stimulated, secretly emitting divine power, obtaining the broken divine power of the dead gods.
Even the little shadow woke up from its slumber, greedily sensing the foreign matter and divine flesh and blood in all directions.
All this made it instinctively emit emotional fluctuations of hunger and excitement.
Under Xu Qing's tacit approval, it quietly spread out from the ground, rising suddenly from multiple places, pouncing toward those gods who were severely injured.
The Nianlin Army commander there also seized this opportunity and did not hesitate to pass down the decree.
"All Nianlin Army, decisive battle!"
His voice echoed, momentum rose, borrowing this variable, borrowing this chaos, and launching a general attack.
As for himself, he rushed out, killing toward the peak Divine Platform commander on the god side.
"Kill!"
Instantly, the entire battlefield plunged into greater madness.
On the distant mountain peaks, those regular Corpse-Touching Teams, looking at all this, all had their hearts moved.
Among them, the old man who had taught Xu Qing their corpse-touching experience also had a ferocious look on his face, and finally gritted his teeth and roared.
"We go up too!"
After speaking, his body flashed, and he had already stepped out.
But there were also corpse-touching cultivators who hesitated in their hearts, unable to help but speak.
"But the rules..."
"Damn the rules, if we don't go up, this time we won't even be able to touch a hair!" The old man roared, his speed unfolding, rushing straight toward the battlefield.
The corpse-touching cultivators behind him also let go, rushing out one after another.
Their joining, although not as sharp as Xu Qing and the others, was still icing on the cake, causing the momentum of the entire battlefield to tilt once again.
The decisive battle erupted completely.
Roaring sounds, piercing sounds, filled the heavens and earth.
Looking around, besides slaughter, there was corpse touching.
Amidst this great chaos, Xu Qing's figure, as always, was like a ghost, weaving through the path, ruthless in his strikes wherever he passed, leaving no survivors.
The Mud Fox was excited, the little shadow was excited, and Xu Qing, with one step, had already appeared beside a peak Divine Fire god. That god's face changed drastically instantly, and his body was about to retreat.
But the next instant, Xu Qing's right hand had already pressed on the top of his head.
Immortal Embryo power erupted, Mud Fox divine power seized the power, and the little shadow also seized the opportunity to rise and devour the flesh and blood.
In an instant, this god, who could make countless tribes worship him on the Eastern Eastern Wanggu, had his divine fire extinguished, his divine power seized, and his corpse was devoured by the little shadow for more than half.
The remainder was taken away by Xu Qing, left to be collected later.
After doing all this, Xu Qing licked his lips; this harvest could be said to be substantial, but Xu Qing was still unsatisfied.
The source quality of the Divine Fire stage was far from enough for his cultivation needs, so he raised his head and swept his gaze, landing on the battle in the distance, gloomy light flashing in his eyes.
That was the battle between the peak Divine Platform and the peak Quasi-Immortal.
That was the life-and-death struggle between the commanders of both sides.
The peak Divine Platform commander fighting with the Nianlin Army commander had divine aura surging all over his body, his divine arts could change the heavens and earth, making the wind and clouds change color, and the pressure was even more intense.
The source quality emitted... was extremely alluring.
Thus, Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, transmitted to the Mud Fox and the little shadow, then his body flashed, rushing into the opposite direction, plunging into the chaotic battlefield.
And then... the Mud Fox emitted foreign matter, enveloping Xu Qing, causing the Immortal Spirit aura on Xu Qing's body to gradually dissipate, replaced by foreign matter.
This was the concealment of aura.
Then the little shadow also returned, covering him with its own shadow.
This was the concealment of the physical body.
At the same time, Xu Qing's Constitution of Space-Time was also rippling, covering his whole body.
This was the concealment of the soul.
With these various methods, he gradually lowered his own sense of presence.
Until finally, on this battlefield, he... vanished without knowing it.
At the same time, the battle between the commanders of both sides also reached a critical moment at this moment. Whether it was that peak Quasi-Immortal or the peak Divine Platform, their strikes were all in the most miserable way.
Because the purpose of that peak Divine Platform commander was to leave. If successful, then whether it was changing the battle situation with himself or fleeing the battlefield, it was in line with his interests.
But the purpose of the Nianlin Army's local Quasi-Immortal commander was to forcibly contain him.
The battle situation was now in favor of the cultivator side, so as long as he contained this Divine Platform commander, then if they persisted, the scales of victory would tilt completely.
In this way, the battle between the two sides was naturally miserable.
They were almost trading injury for injury.
Amidst the deafening roars, in the brilliant and blinding light of techniques and divine arts, under the storm that rippled the heavens and earth, their injuries deepened, becoming more and more severe, and the killing became even more intense.
They even used their trump cards against each other.
The peak Divine Platform's trump card was the extreme eruption of his divine power, forming a white sun.
But what it emitted was not scorching heat, but extreme cold and death.
Even looking closely, one could see that on that sun, there existed countless painful faces, emitting piercing sounds, all twisted in expression.
And while both sides were striking, you die I die, within the battlefield, a hidden figure was quietly approaching here.
No one missed a single word, no one missed a single content, look at it all!
Getting closer and closer.
Very quickly, the distance between them reached a thousand feet.
But just at this moment, that Divine Platform commander, whose upper body was human and lower body was composed of black mist, suddenly turned his head, coldness in his eyes.
His right hand raised, actually splitting the trump card he was unfolding into two, transforming into two miserable white suns.
One blocked the Nianlin Army commander, the other changed direction, falling suddenly toward a battlefield area a thousand feet away.
All this was too fast.
In an instant, that terrifying white sun appeared a thousand feet away and erupted suddenly there.
White light swept across, shattering the void, collapsing laws, distorting everything.
This also included the figures who were forced out from hiding within that area.
It was Xu Qing.
He tried to resist, but it was of no avail; this divine power eruption from the peak Divine Platform was incredibly terrifying, and wherever the white light passed, it crushed everything.
Thus, Xu Qing's revealed figure twisted rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, he was covered in blood, actually beginning to shatter.
At the critical moment, Xu Qing also had decisiveness in his eyes, his soul leaving his body, retreating violently, wanting to avoid the crisis, but almost the moment he retreated, countless gods rushed over from all around him.
Attacking with all their might.
Roaring sounds soared to the heavens, spreading in all directions, attracting a massive amount of gazes.
Thus, under the witness of both sides, Xu Qing's soul, like his physical body, shattered and collapsed!
This scene caused Zhou Zhengli and the others to have their eyes turn crimson instantly, emitting piercing roars, rushing toward this place from different directions.
And the little shadow there also manifested, emitting crazy emotional fluctuations, pouncing toward that peak Divine Platform commander.
Pouncing together was the Mud Fox, who also carried the same madness, transforming into divine light and rushing toward the peak Divine Platform commander.
Also rushing forward was the Mud Fox, its eyes filled with the same madness; it transformed into divine light, charging toward the peak of the Divine Platform.
Instantly, the battlefield was filled with blood light, red moths flying, heavens and earth shining brightly.
Life-and-death crisis also rose intensely in the heart of this peak Divine Platform commander.
He stared fixedly at the Nianlin Army commander, stared at the red moths filling the sky, his body retreated suddenly, slapping his body many times, unfolding a secret technique.
His body withered instantly, emitting a sense of weakness; this was the price of the secret technique.
But his potential was stimulated, gathering in the core, causing white light to rise all over his body, as if he himself were transforming into a sun!
Now, it was his weakest moment, but it was only temporary; he understood that as long as the transformation into a sun succeeded, he had the confidence to severely injure that Nianlin Army commander.
And by then, although he would be even more overdrawn, he could also use this to create an opportunity and time for himself to escape.
At this moment, seeing the white light shining brilliantly, the sun within his body was about to replace his divine body.
But just at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
The empty void behind him suddenly wrinkled like paper, revealing fluctuations.
This fluctuation expanded rapidly, enveloping the sky, making the heavens and earth change color, extremely strange.
That was the ripple of space!
That was the flow of time!
That was even more the overlapping of space-time!
A hand holding an iron sign, in an incredibly swift and incredibly strange way, stretched out from the overlapping of space-time!
Appearing in front of the neck of this peak Divine Platform commander who was currently in a weak state!
With extreme speed, with a precise angle, with a skilled technique, it slashed violently at his neck.
Sharpness revealed!
Piercing the divine skin, cutting open the flesh and blood, severing the divine bones, and then piercing through!
There was also the sound of a bell, echoing along with it, like a funeral sound.
This scene was incredibly sudden, and that Divine Platform commander, even if he reacted, had no chance to counterattack or dodge.
Because that iron sign was incredibly sharp, the material was extraordinary, and the hand holding it contained incredibly terrifying power.
Most importantly... the person who killed him had cultivation not weaker than his own, and even if inferior, it wasn't by much.
Possessing the qualification to fight him head-on.
And for such a person to sneak-attack... it was naturally sharp!
So the next instant, his eyes widened, and as the heavens and earth spun, he actually saw his own body being drowned by the Nianlin Army commander's Immortal Law red moths.
That body, vaguely, seemed to have no head!
Divine blood was erupting into the sky from the neck, merging with the red clouds!
There was also the torn divine soul, which was also split in two by the iron sign.
Until the red clouds and strange moths completely enveloped the divine body, the red moths burrowing into the flesh and blood, destroying everything!
And all this, including his consciousness, in his current perception, was flying away rapidly.
It was just... what was flying away wasn't the body, but his head!
His head was actually being held by a hand, speeding away!
As his consciousness blurred, he finally saw the person holding his head.
That was a young man, wearing a black robe, stained with divine blood, with purple hair, and a handsome appearance.
His gaze was even colder.
It was... the corpse-touching cultivator who had been exterminated by him before!
"You..."
A hoarse voice came from his mouth, just echoing, but the next instant, the seal had already arrived.
His world finally turned pitch black.
The battlefield went silent instantly.
And in mid-air, Xu Qing's figure, holding the head and leaving, seemed to freeze, having become the focus.
The one exterminated before was Xu Qing's self from another space-time, and also his body of concealment; the one appearing now was the true body.
At this moment in the sky, amidst the horror of the god side and the shock of the cultivator side, Xu Qing's figure paused, holding high the head he had sealed.
Without saying a word.
Behind him, the red clouds were like the moon.
And below, on the battlefield, cheers that filled the sky soon spread.
Following... the cultivator army, like a flood, with the momentum of crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood, drowned the gods.
