Chapter 159
"Uh..."
On the teleportation formation, the Sea Corpse Clan Foundation Establishment Life Fire cultivator who was about to arrive suddenly stopped his words.
He was not a human in his previous life but an alien race; his appearance looked human, but in reality, he possessed six eyes. Besides the normal positions, there was one on his forehead and one on each cheek, and one on the back of his head.
Now that the majority of his body had taken shape, it included his head and eyes.
His breathing was now clearly rapid, and whether it was the five eyes Xu Qing could see or the sixth eye he could not, all of them contracted violently.
Revealing horror and disbelief, the intense, earth-shattering change in his heart could not be concealed in the slightest.
"You... you are Life Fire? Not one cluster!
This... this..."
This Sea Corpse Clan Foundation Establishment Life Fire cultivator only felt his mind roaring, his body shivering, and the intense life-and-death crisis made his soul tremble. He wanted to destroy the formation, but the formation had opened to such a degree that he, being in the formation, could not do so, so he roared rapidly toward the black-robed scholar.
"Quickly destroy the formation!"
In fact, it was not just him; the Sea Corpse Clan black-robed scholar who was about to approach Xu Qing at the side was also, at this very instant, having his mind churned, raising earth-shattering waves.
It was truly because the fire within Xu Qing's body at this moment felt too terrifying!
That volcanic-like strength made the black-robed scholar's eyes feel as if countless needles were piercing them, causing extreme pain, as if he could not look directly at it. The horror in his heart was earth-shattering, and his mind was on the verge of collapse.
In such a situation, how could this black-robed scholar dare to approach? The intense life-and-death crisis overturned everything in his heart, and the only path laid before him was one.
That was to violate the instincts of his race, not to listen to the words of his superior, and to use his arrival to attract the enemy's fire while he himself fled rapidly.
So in an instant, he made a judgment, his body retreated violently, and he was about to flee.
And at this moment, Xu Qing, standing in the distance, raised his head.
The volcano within his body was earth-shattering, burning the surrounding seawater until it constantly boiled and spread. Especially his eyes, which at this moment emitted blinding firelight, making him look as if he had transformed into a god's child, and he looked over coldly.
His gaze seemed capable of piercing through all barriers and obstacles, and even the fluctuations of the teleportation formation could not affect it in the slightest; it was directly ignored by Xu Qing and locked onto the six-eyed Sea Corpse Clan cultivator.
Looking with this glance, in Xu Qing's eyes, everything became extremely slow.
The black-robed scholar was fleeing sluggishly, the dust in the surroundings seemed as if it had stilled in all directions, and everything seemed about to turn into eternity.
And the fluctuations of the teleportation formation were also like ink in water, slowly spreading, with only the figure of the six-eyed Sea Corpse Clan cultivator within it moving relatively faster.
But... it was still very slow!
Being looked at by this glance from Xu Qing, the six-eyed Sea Corpse Clan cultivator felt his heart roar, his expression changed wildly, and he could not control the wailing in his heart.
"Two clusters, it must be two clusters! Since this Seven Blood Child Seventh Peak cultivator has two clusters of Life Fire, why didn't he let me out before!
" While he lamented in his heart, the teleportation formation suddenly showed signs of being about to be destroyed.
Clearly, at the other end of the teleportation where he was, someone was helping him destroy the formation to avoid this killing tribulation.
But it was already too late.
Xu Qing raised his right hand and pressed it lightly toward where the teleportation formation was.
With a roar, a cluster of black malevolent fire suddenly erupted from the volcano within Xu Qing's body, spreading madly outward, and in an instant, it shrouded the teleportation formation, forming a huge black flame palm that descended violently toward the teleportation formation.
This palm emitted astonishing heat, carrying the momentum to burn everything. As it fell, cracks appeared on the ground, as if the earth itself was about to be torn apart.
All the seaweed instantly withered into flying ash, and the seawater in the surrounding area also evaporated in an instant, forming a hollow space and revealing the dim teleportation formation.
And... the six-eyed Sea Corpse Clan cultivator on that formation whose mind was currently collapsing and who was emitting hysterical roars.
His figure could not dissipate in time, and the extremely intense life-and-death crisis caused him to emit a shrill roar, using all his strength, as his body grew four extra arms.
All six hands were raised, the Life Fire within his body erupted to open the Profound Radiance State, and at this moment, he did not hesitate to destroy his magic apertures, stimulating all his potential to turn his body into a cluster of flames to block Xu Qing's black fire palm with all his might.
While resisting, he also took out three magic artifacts and spat out a blue jade stone from his mouth, his expression ferocious and filled with the madness of despair.
But it was still not enough!
One cluster of Life Fire is not worthy of being an enemy to a cultivator who possesses a Life Lamp.
The next instant, as the black fire palm fell and everything material in the surroundings turned to ash, the six-eyed Sea Corpse Clan cultivator's magic artifacts could not block it in the slightest, instantly cracking and collapsing two of them, and the third one lasted less than half a breath before disintegrating as well.
The last thing to shatter was that blue jade stone, which broke directly amidst clicking sounds, followed by the powerful physical body that this Sea Corpse Clan cultivator was so proud of, which could not sustain itself, and his flesh and blood collapsed and broke.
Three of his six arms collapsed in the blink of an eye, and amidst the bloody mess, his legs could not bear it either and exploded with a bang.
The remaining three arms at this moment all bent, and in the end, they were still unable to resist, exploding into blue blood mist that roared and spread.
And Xu Qing's black palm, carrying the momentum of destroying everything in its path, slapped down fiercely, landing directly on the ground and crushing everything below it!
The formation shattered and turned to ash.
While a deep palm print appeared on the ground, the body of the six-eyed Sea Corpse Clan cultivator had completely shattered, with only a cluster of green fire, extremely dim, as if it could be extinguished at any moment, fleeing madly into the distance.
Its speed was extreme in the eyes of those who had not opened Life Fire, so much so that it could not even be seen clearly, but in Xu Qing's eyes, it was still too slow.
He took a step forward with his body.
As this step landed, the surrounding seawater exploded with bangs, turning into a torrent that rolled backward madly to both sides, and Xu Qing had already pursued.
His speed was so fast that in the blink of an eye, he broke through all obstacles and appeared before the six-eyed Sea Corpse Clan cultivator, whose face was full of horror, and he raised his right hand and grabbed casually.
Ignoring the opponent's Life Fire, he pierced directly through it and, like grabbing a chick, grabbed the soul within.
No matter how the opponent struggled, it was to no avail. In the end, amidst the shrill screams of the Sea Corpse Clan cultivator, black flames covered him along Xu Qing's body, shrouding him in an instant.
Directly refining the soul!
Until this moment, this dead Sea Corpse Clan member could not understand why this Seven Blood Child disciple was clearly so strong, yet had repeatedly not let him out before.
After all, he had never seen someone who had just opened Life Fire reach such a degree, so in his cognition, it was impossible for Xu Qing to have just opened Life Fire.
Three breaths of time later, as Xu Qing released his hand, the soul of the Sea Corpse Clan cultivator was refined within his body, burning like firewood.
After finishing this, Xu Qing turned his head to look at the black-robed scholar fleeing sluggishly not far away. Watching the opponent's fleeing figure, Xu Qing even had time to ponder the difference between Life Fire and non-Life Fire.
"The gap is indeed too large." Xu Qing sighed with emotion and walked one step toward the black-robed scholar.
The speed under the Profound Radiance State made it impossible for the black-robed scholar to see clearly at all. As the seawater exploded again, Xu Qing had already appeared before him.
The black-robed scholar's movements did not even have time to change, and the terror on his expression had barely begun when Xu Qing had already raised his hand, conjured a black flame dagger, and slashed across the black-robed scholar's neck.
The head and body were separated into two parts, connected together by black flames.
As the flames spread up and down, they turned back into two parts, both being burned at the same time, until they dissipated into flying ash, only then did Xu Qing turn his head to look at the direction where the Third Peak youth had fled earlier.
The opponent's figure could no longer be seen; clearly, he had already fled very far away and could not possibly know about the changes here.
Xu Qing thought for a moment and gave up on the pursuit.
Even though the opponent had released tricks while fleeing, and although it was for better escape and self-preservation, and there was a suspicion of using himself as a target, in the end, he had also done himself a small favor.
So after Xu Qing collected the spoils of war here and checked the surroundings again to ensure there were indeed no omissions, his body flickered and he moved away abruptly, disappearing from this place in an instant.
Under the Profound Radiance State, Xu Qing, galloping through the undersea world, felt his mood was very agitated, with a feeling that was hard to describe. That kind of strength coming from himself made Xu Qing feel very sufficient in terms of a sense of security.
His speed was so fast that ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators could not see him at all, and the obstruction of the seawater was the only influence. At the same time, following his observation, the feeling of a volcanic eruption within his body made even him feel alarmed.
"I wonder how I compare to the Captain now..." Xu Qing muttered in his heart, feeling the rising of the Life Fire on his Life Lamp, and he had deeply realized the terror of the Profound Radiance State.
"All abilities are like a transformation!" Xu Qing raised his right hand and waved it while galloping, and instantly a sea of black fire, far more majestic than before, roared and spread out, instantly extinguishing a Sea Corpse Clan teleportation formation.
Afterward, he made a fist and pressed it into the air toward the ground, and instantly the earth roared, and cracks suddenly burst out, forming a huge deep pit.
Then he raised his hand and formed a seal, and the surrounding seawater suddenly churned. At his single thought, it surged toward the deep pit, filling it and forming a storm-like vortex that roared and rotated toward the surroundings, with astonishing lethality. As long as an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator touched it, their body would definitely collapse, and their form and spirit would be destroyed.
"Magic, physical body, both are like this!" Xu Qing's spirit was excited. In a remote place in this undersea world, his body stopped abruptly. As the sound of the surrounding seawater exploding came slowly, Xu Qing lowered his head to look at his shadow, and then waved his hand to take out the black iron skewer and glanced at it.
The shadow trembled instantly, and the Jin Gang Sect ancestor on the black iron skewer also shivered intensely. In reality, after Xu Qing opened the Profound Radiance State earlier, they had instantly become quiet.
It was truly because Xu Qing in that state felt very terrifying to them, not to mention that later, Xu Qing had suddenly become even more astonishing than a Profound Radiance State with one cluster of Life Fire, killing a one-fire cultivator as easily as killing a chicken. This felt extremely terrifying to them.
"The assessment period is almost here." Xu Qing spoke slowly.
So hungry, I've had enough takeout. Is there anyone who would like to treat a little Mengxin to a meal?
