Chapter 127
Inside the Juying Island undersea world, Xu Qing's body moved, and intense pain struck his whole body; the wounds on his legs, arms, and stomach were all torn open at this moment from their slight healing, and fresh blood overflowed once again, re-staining his dilapidated Daoist robe.
Although there was spiritual energy protection outside his body, preventing the seawater from touching the wounds, it was still the case that during this movement, the pain became increasingly intense.
And this time, Xu Qing's injuries were too severe; even the purple crystal could not make him recover quickly.
At this moment, the mist in the surroundings rolled, swallowing from all directions; Xu Qing could ignore the heterogenous substance contained within, but he could feel that there was rich corpse poison existing in the mist.
He felt that in his current state, encountering corpse poison would make the purple crystal divert part of its restorative power to clean it up, which was not conducive to the improvement of his injuries.
In addition, he also saw some corpses in the mist actually crawling up from the ground as if resurrected, emitting roars like wild beasts, running in the mist.
Once shrouded by the mist, it would definitely be a life-and-death crisis.
"Must leave here as soon as possible." Xu Qing's pupils shrank, gritted his teeth to endure the intense pain, his speed erupted, and he accelerated to speed forward.
This intense activity made his complexion even paler, but at the moment, Xu Qing had no other way; he could only forcibly ignore the pain, and amidst this permeating mist, he ran toward the exit direction, even using a flight talisman.
Only, his physical body was severely injured, and his spiritual energy was also nearly exhausted; at the same time, being in a dangerous place, he had to retain a certain means of counterattack, so he could only activate the flight talisman and could not rely on his cultivation base to augment it to make it faster.
Just like that, time passed, and after a stick of incense's time, Xu Qing finally rushed out of the range of the temple complex.
Looking around, except for the thin mist, it was empty; only the mist in the distance was continuously swallowing and approaching, and one temple after another, one coral building after another, were instantly swallowed by it, and everything it passed was rendered black.
There were few people here to begin with, and at this moment, not a trace could be seen; only the roars of the resurrected corpses, like demons and monsters in the mist, were echoing.
Xu Qing's complexion was gloomy; he noticed that the direction of the seabed was also like this, and it seemed that there was even thicker black mist rising from the seabed, making Xu Qing unable to go there, so he stepped on the ground, his body rushed out again, and as the flight talisman flashed, he continued to speed away.
But he was too far from the exit, so after traveling forward for another stick of incense's time, following the permeation of the mist in the surroundings, he was inevitably shrouded within the mist.
Almost the instant he was shrouded by the mist, Xu Qing's spiritual energy protection fluctuated violently, being rapidly corroded, and the vision in the surroundings was also severely covered at this moment.
Only the roars of the corpses were coming closer and closer from all directions.
Killing intent flashed in Xu Qing's eyes; his right hand suddenly raised, the black iron skewer in hand, and he swept it across to the side abruptly; a ferocious low roar came from close range, and that was a resurrected corpse.
Unlike the Sea Corpse Clan, this corpse was a Seven Blood Eyes disciple during his lifetime; at this moment, his whole body was black, and his eyes were the same; even though his neck was split open by the iron skewer, and his head fell off, his hands were still grabbing fiercely toward Xu Qing.
Xu Qing's left hand formed seals, and suddenly a water curtain permeated, spreading outward violently.
Amidst the roar, the corpse was shaken and retreated more than ten zhang away.
Xu Qing did not continue to kill; at this moment, the roars in the surroundings were becoming more and more numerous; his expression revealed a trace of decisiveness, his left hand formed seals and pressed toward the ground, and suddenly countless water droplets formed beside him, instantly merging and turning into a plesiosaur.
After appearing, this plesiosaur expanded violently to a size of a hundred zhang, and after shrouding Xu Qing within, following a low roar echoing, the plesiosaur rushed forward violently.
Wherever it passed, any corpse that blocked it was directly knocked flying by the plesiosaur.
This was Xu Qing's final trump card; once the plesiosaur collapsed again, it would be even more troublesome for him to want to leave here.
Fortunately, the plesiosaur was also astonishing in speed, and its huge body also possessed impact force; although it was continuously being corroded and shrinking, the spiritual energy Xu Qing stored within the plesiosaur was very abundant, which allowed the plesiosaur to carry Xu Qing and move rapidly in this mist under this support, slowly getting closer and closer to the exit.
Along the way, he also encountered some Seven Blood Eyes disciples, all of them running wildly with all their might, ignoring each other.
Only, just as Xu Qing was about to approach the area where the exit was located, because too many cultivators had died in battle here, so before he could even get close, he felt the countless roars coming from ahead.
Many Seven Blood Eyes disciples who had run here were also inevitably blocked by the corpse tide in this place; Xu Qing's complexion was gloomy, his hands formed seals and grabbed outward violently.
Suddenly, his plesiosaur contracted instantly, shrinking abruptly as if withered, and the spiritual energy contained within it gushed rapidly into Xu Qing's body, causing the exhausted spiritual energy in Xu Qing's body to be replenished.
It was just that doing this would make the plesiosaur dissipate.
But at this moment, Xu Qing could not care about too much; following the disappearance of the plesiosaur's figure, the spiritual energy in Xu Qing's body recovered by more than half directly; although his physical injuries were still severe, his overall combat power had returned somewhat.
While forming seals, droplets of water appeared around Xu Qing, directly rotating around him; Xu Qing's body rushed out abruptly, leaping over the corpse tide; during the period when he encountered obstruction, the water droplets outside his body would disperse some, shrouding and throwing the other party away.
Just like that, Xu Qing flew all the way; wherever he passed, one corpse after another was shrouded by his water droplets, becoming water clusters that could not interfere with him, until a moment later, Xu Qing finally saw the exit.
Just as he was about to leap over, but at this moment, Xu Qing turned his head abruptly and saw a figure coming from another direction, running wildly all the way.
While running, this person was also throwing out one mechanism after another that would explode upon touch toward the surroundings; amidst the echoing roars, the guy carried on his back emitted a familiar voice.
"Zhang San, keep it up! Yes, that's how you throw it, blow them to death! Ouch, you threw it in the wrong direction, you should throw it over there."
The one running was Zhang San, and the one speaking was the Captain.
Zhang San looked panting, as if he had already used his life to run wildly, while the Captain he carried seemed not to care about the environment here, commenting continuously amidst laughter.
"Shut up!" Zhang San was angry.
"Eh, Zhang San, how can you talk to your original Captain like that!" The Captain was dissatisfied, took out an apple, and took a bite.
"If you speak again, I will throw you down and run by myself."
"Third Brother, keep it up!"
Xu Qing's expression was somewhat strange; he looked at Zhang San, who was approaching rapidly, and the Captain on his back, who had lost his lower body, and in his heart, he had another realization about the Captain's madness.
At the same time, Zhang San also saw Xu Qing, his eyes lit up immediately, and he threw out a silk thread that traveled over, directly coiling around Xu Qing's body, and with the force, he leaped violently and approached rapidly.
"Ah, Vice-Captain Xu, what great thing did you do to get yourself like this, so weak? Could it be that you went to the Mermaid Clan Princess's bedroom and were squeezed dry?"
The Captain also saw Xu Qing, and after noticing Xu Qing's full-body injuries and dilapidated Daoist robe, his eyes lit up.
"Can it still grow back?" Xu Qing did not take the bait, but instead scanned the Captain's half-body and spoke calmly.
"No problem, what is this? When I go back, I will be able to jump around." The Captain spoke proudly.
"En, then I will give you a feather later." Xu Qing said faintly.
"A feather, why give me a feather?" The Captain was stunned.
"What are you still chatting about? Hurry up and go." Zhang San was anxious to the side; he felt that Xu Qing and the Captain were both perverts; now that this place was so dangerous, the two of them were actually still chatting.
Xu Qing retracted his gaze from the Captain's half-body and swayed away; Zhang San hurriedly threw out silk threads to coil and borrow force to speed away; just like that, their two-and-a-half bodies approached the exit rapidly, and the next instant, they drilled directly into it and vanished.
Not long after, the black mist in the surroundings drowned this place with a boom.
The entire undersea world was completely shrouded by the mist, but the rolling of the mist did not end; following the ground of the island, following the passages, following all positions, it continued to erupt toward the island.
In the passage between the seabed and the island, Xu Qing's speed was extremely fast; the poison here had now dissipated quite a bit, and Xu Qing did not know if it had dissipated naturally or had been invaded into other places.
It was just a stick of incense's time, and his body broke through the water surface with a boom; the moment he leaped up, the flight talisman on his body erupted with full power, turning into a long rainbow and rushing straight toward the top.
Zhang San was the same, took out a flight talisman and followed closely behind; only the Captain's voice was still carrying surprise, continuously coming out.
"Xu Qing, what does giving a feather mean?"
Xu Qing did not speak.
"Vice-Captain Xu, you still owe me eight thousand spirit stones; what does a feather mean?"
Xu Qing did not even look; at this moment, amidst the whistling, he rushed directly out of the passage, and after stepping into the outside world, he felt the strong wind rushing toward his face, immediately looked around, and his expression changed abruptly.
Zhang San was the same; after rushing out, he noticed the surroundings, and his complexion changed.
At this moment, the outside world was in chaos, and a strong wind was blowing.
Wisps of black smoke were rotating and flowing backward, connecting with the array in the sky, like a dragon sucking water; looking around, there were a full eight of them, and each island had two.
On the earth, there were also countless black gases turning into silk threads, continuously merging into these eight dragon-sucking-water-like rolling mists, making them increasingly astonishing; even when Xu Qing and the three looked, that rolling mist not far from them began to change drastically.
From its upper end, branches actually appeared; these branches quickly turned into snake heads, a total of nine heads, and after forming rapidly among each other, they emitted deafening roars toward the earth.
This roaring sound was earth-shattering, making the ground tremble.
It felt as if it contained infinite heterogenous substance and corpse poison, and at this moment, it was venting out amidst the roars, and its cultivation combat power was also climbing rapidly, as if it had broken through the Seven Blood Eyes' array, and in an instant, it reached Core Formation, and was even still climbing.
The pressure formed by this scene made Xu Qing's heart and spirit shake; he recognized this great snake, which was precisely the snake coiled around the giant he had seen in the mural.
At the same time, the other seven rolling mists were also like this at this moment, all successively forming the appearance of a great snake; following their roars and howls, the entire Mermaid Clan's four islands had their heterogenous substance become incredibly intense.
Whether it was the remaining Mermaid Clan or the Seven Blood Eyes disciples, at this moment, they were all being rapidly invaded.
One corpse after another opened their eyes, and one after another, they were resurrected.
Thank you, Great Alliance Zhai Cai!
Little Mengxin just looked up at the number of monthly tickets and was stunned for a moment.
I'm going to continue coding; the next chapter is almost finished, I'm catching up, I can catch up...
