Chapter 1212: Zhenyi True God

This was a dark and gloomy world.

Thick blackness like solidified asphalt wrapped the entire world, transforming into the wall of the world.

And within the world, on the firmament, one could see dark red patterns, like cracked spider webs, covering the entire sky.

Drops of blood were seeping out from the gaps in the lines, sprinkling on the riddled earth.

Like rain.

And in the center of this high-altitude blood rain, where those patterns intertwined, within the sky, a huge tumor actually grew!

It was like a dead sun, high above, and like a deformed god parasitic in this world, giving people an incomparably weird and gloomy feeling.

Xu Qing, and all the gods who disappeared in the light ring... were appearing out of thin air one by one in this blood rain at this moment.

Transmitted here.

The moment they appeared in this weird blood rain, all the gods instinctively probed the surroundings; obviously for any one of them, this... was the first time they had come.

As for Xu Qing, who was within it, his probing direction was even more comprehensive, not only this world, but also his vigilance toward the outside of the world.

Fortunately, the crisis from before the transmission seemed to be isolated because of the weirdness of this place.

That divine sense in the starry sky did not follow and descend.

This discovery made Xu Qing breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, but at the same time, he also felt strange about this world.

"Here, could it be that it is not the center of the earth veins?"

Xu Qing raised his head, gazing at the firmament, looking at the blood-colored patterns all over the sky, looking at that huge and weird meatball, his pupils narrowed slightly.

That tumor, he vaguely saw some clues.

Subsequently, he lowered his head, his gaze falling on the earth.

The earth of this world was also black, and the mud formed where the blood rain fell was like a festering scar.

Countless blood-colored little people gestated from the places where the blood rain fell; they had no facial features, numbly spreading in all directions, starting to work.

And in the distance, one could see layered mountain ranges, like giant beast skeletons stripped of skin and flesh, and in every gully, viscous black fog actually flowed.

Within the fog, withered trees grew weirdly; they were all twisted in form, the gnarled trunks presenting a sickly gray-white color, as if countless broken spines were spliced together, the branches thin and long, twisting straight to the sky, like countless hands, wanting to touch the sky!

But they were corroded by the sprinkling of blood rain, so they oozed black mucus, sticking together, composing ganoderma-like umbrellas that could avoid the rain.

Those ganoderma umbrellas had large and small ones. In Xu Qing's gaze, the large ones were often composed of multiple withered trees, with a range comparable to a city.

As for the umbrellas, fine crystals grew on them, reflecting micro-lights where illusion and reality intertwined.

These micro-lights caught Xu Qing's attention.

They were actually small worlds that had turned into ruins!

They didn't know what was hidden inside, flickering in the crystal cut surfaces.

This scene made Xu Qing's strangeness even stronger.

"Here, it's as if heaven and earth are fighting!"

Xu Qing muttered in his heart.

Because he saw that the little people walking out of the blood rain, their so-called labor, was using axes transformed from their arms to chop withered trees, and every time the axe blade fell, it would leave traces on the

Because he saw that the little figures emerging from the blood rain were performing what they called labor: using axes formed from their arms to hack at withered trees, and every time the axe blade fell, it left a mark on the trunk.

Beyond that, there was also mountain-splitting, and within the sparks that erupted when the axes struck the rock, tiny teeth and fingernails were actually mixed in.

It was as if the trees and mountain ranges on this land were all living things!

And this process of labor also contained deep, intense danger!

Xu Qing saw with his own eyes that in one mountain range, as countless little figures hacked away, the many withered trees there suddenly spasmed in unison.

The next instant, the large and small lingzhi-like caps growing on the trees, along with the grape-like vesicles beneath them, burst in succession in a single moment!

The splashed mucus condensed in the air into tens of thousands of silk threads, piercing toward those little figures.

Wherever they passed, the little figures they touched had their skin crack like charred wood, dark red light leaking from the fissures before they quickly collapsed into fly ash.

All of this caused Xu Qing's mind to tighten.

He had already seen the truth of this world.

"These are two terrifying True Gods, both likely at the peak True God realm!"

"They are one above and one below, currently opposing each other in another state."

"This state is strange; it seems they are locked in a stalemate."

"Thus, the True God in the sky has torn open the firmament of this world, spilling down Its divine blood to transform into those little figures, making them hack at the trees and split the mountains."

"And the mountains and trees are the other True God; It is struggling, but it seems that now, having continued to this point, It is already in decline."

"Then the purpose of the Zhenyi Clan..."

Xu Qing felt vigilant in his heart, his thoughts turning rapidly; at the same time, the gods all around had also made their own discoveries here.

Subsequently, within the divine presence, the voice of the dwarf from the Zhenyi Clan, who was sitting cross-legged on a black lotus, echoed out.

"Although you are governed by my clan and are subordinate gods of my clan, since you have obeyed the summons, I will not continue to hide things from you."

"The outside world says that the True God of my Zhenyi Clan fell in early years and cannot return, but in reality... the True God of my clan has not died; He is right there!"

On the black lotus, the dwarf stood up and raised his right hand, pointing at the pitch-black meatball in the firmament!

"He is caught in a fusion with another True God!"

"And your mission in coming here is to help the True God of my clan clear the trees and mountain ranges of this place, to share the pressure for the True God of my clan so that He can successfully complete the final fusion."

"When that time comes, once the True God of my clan awakens, you subordinate gods, in addition to the rewards you are due, will have other benefits; you will be bestowed with divine seals, each possessing one instance of the protection of the True God of my clan."

On the black lotus, the dwarf's divine voice echoed.

Among the gods who had been teleported here, the vast majority, under the strict hierarchy of the divine system and being subordinate gods of the Zhenyi Clan to begin with, had no objections to this mission.

Now, after hearing this, they scattered one after another, unfolding their respective divine arts; some shook the withered trees, others vibrated the desolate mountains.

Only those whose realm had reached the Divine Platform were qualified to weigh the pros and cons at this moment.

Like the few that Xu Qing had focused on earlier, they were exactly like that.

But within the divine sense of the black lotus dwarf, these few also nodded one after another, joining in the assistance to the True God of the Zhenyi Clan.

Yet they were not hacking trees or breaking mountains, but flying up to the firmament, circling the giant black meatball, sitting cross-legged in meditation, each dispersing their divine sense to transmit their own divine breath to the meatball.

Establishing a connection with that True God to disperse the pressure.

!

Although their divine breath was merely a drop in the bucket for a True God, at this critical moment, being able to have one more external force to share the pressure was, for the True God of the Zhenyi alien clan, a consolidation of Its advantage.

As for Xu Qing, the dwarf's divine sense also echoed in his heart.

"Coming here this time, it was the True God of my clan summoning me through the method of bloodline; His fusion is imminent, hence this journey."

"As a Divine Platform, integrate your divine power into the firmament and establish a connection with the True God of my clan. After the True God of my clan awakens, I will bestow upon you a shattered piece of a divine spark!"

This reward was already very heavy.

But Xu Qing... could not assist.

He was, after all, not a god.

In his current state, he could not establish a connection with a True God without his identity being discovered by the other party.

After all, that was a peak True God.

Even getting too close made Xu Qing feel that danger was everywhere.

Thus, he sighed in his heart; that feeling of being in the divine star ring, with wolves in front and tigers behind, unable to take a single step, was particularly intense, so he could only speak in a low voice at this moment.

"My lord, this matter is of great importance and cannot afford any mistakes, and my realm is insufficient, making me useless here. Please open the teleportation; I shall take my leave now."

As he spoke, Xu Qing raised his hand and flicked it, taking out the True God stone and sending it to the dwarf.

Entering this place was a last resort; asking to leave now, although the possibility of the other party agreeing was not high, Xu Qing still had to try. If it went smoothly, that would naturally be good.

If it did not go smoothly... a chill rose in Xu Qing's heart.

And at this moment, in the blood rain, in mid-air, only Xu Qing and the black lotus dwarf remained.

Listening to Xu Qing's words, the dwarf expressionlessly raised his finger and tapped it on the True God stone before him; the black stone instantly trembled, turning into fly ash in an instant and dissipating.

Subsequently, his gaze turned cold as he looked at Xu Qing.

"Either submit, or perish."

A flash of killing intent appeared in Xu Qing's eyes.

But the next instant, on the spiderweb-like blood-veined firmament, the giant black meatball suddenly squirmed a few times, and a slit within it suddenly opened up a bit.

It was just like an opening and closing eye!

The moment it opened, a turbid gaze suddenly fell from the slit in the meatball... landing on Xu Qing.

In an instant, the dark red sky light suddenly became viscous, the entire world erupted in a roar, and all eight directions twisted in unison.

There was even a murmuring divine sound echoing in the heavens and earth.

Xu Qing's body shook; that gaze was as if it were tangible. In this instant, he seemed to hear the sound of blood flowing backward, the crisp sound of bones cracking in a vacuum, and felt the miserable screeching of the butterfly's remnant soul being burned.

In a flash, the butterfly divine shell outside his body tightened directly, unable to withstand this gaze, cracking inch by inch and collapsing in an instant.

With a boom, it shattered into pieces.

Revealing Xu Qing's true form.

At the same time, within the black meatball in the firmament, the moment it sensed Xu Qing's true form, a muffled sound similar to a fetus's heartbeat suddenly came, each vibration making the gravel on the mountain surface tremble with a rustling sound.

Greater pressure surged from within that meatball, about to descend, but the next instant, the mountains and trees of the earth seemed to have found an opportunity to counterattack; the earth immediately roared, the mountains shook, and they actually pulled themselves up from the ground one by one, wanting to rush into the sky.

And those withered trees also grew forcibly, heading straight for the firmament.

Thus, the black meatball in the firmament, after a pause, emitted an unknown roar and had to close its eye again, continuing to focus all its divine sense on the fusion with its formidable enemy.

Heaven and earth opposed each other once again.

As for the dwarf, his divine eyes tightened at this moment; seemingly having received a transmission, the divine might on his body erupted instantly, his eyes carrying a ghostly light, and the three hundred and sixty ancient remains circling his body opened their eyes in unison, locking onto Xu Qing.

"You are not a god, you are a cultivator!"

"The Lizhu God Emperor has an edict to hunt down the cultivator who abducted the Star-Eyed Luan... could it be... you!"
