Chapter 164: There's Something Strange!

~13 min read 2,453 words

Although the Seven Blood Eyes sect was mainly based on interests, it was precisely because of this that the respect of the weak for the strong was more obvious. No one would be stupid enough to be unable to let go of their posture when facing the strong.

Such people mostly didn't live until now.

So this Fifth Peak Foundation Establishment member's degree of respect at this moment was not much different from meeting an Elder.

Regardless of his inner thoughts, few people would dislike this posture.

Xu Qing nodded upon hearing this. After scanning the surroundings, he found a corner and sat down cross-legged.

While waiting for the tide to arrive, he was impacting the forty-first Dharma aperture within his body.

And the Life Fire Foundation Establishment was indeed useful. In an instant, Xu Qing's forty-first Dharma aperture was successfully opened, and there was even enough energy to impact the forty-second.

Although it didn't succeed, it also caused many cracks to appear in the forty-second Dharma aperture.

This made Xu Qing very happy. He felt that if this continued, he shouldn't need too long to open the second cluster of Life Fire. And by that time, although he would seem to have two fires, his actual combat power would have reached the three-fire peak level of most Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"It's a pity that Life Fire Foundation Establishment is not many. Whether I can encounter them depends on luck." Xu Qing's thoughts turned, pondering that perhaps he could try to accept some difficult tasks next.

And while he was pondering here, the disciples outside the valley entered the valley one after another, helping the Second Peak to dismantle alchemy furnaces and magic treasures.

Before long, after everything was ready, everyone gathered at the array. While waiting for the sect's tide, they also secretly peeked at Xu Qing and whispered to each other.

Xu Qing's existence seemed to have become their backbone. At this moment, although they were in the battlefield, a sense of safety rose in the hearts of everyone in the valley.

During this process, the island also roared and vibrated many times, and the sound echoed in all directions, caused by the fluctuations of other teleportation points.

And the alien substances here were becoming increasingly intense.

While waiting, the sky slowly darkened, and the clouds in the firmament became blurred, as if hiding huge dangers.

"Senior Brother, I once buried many magic eyes on this island. Although most of them have been destroyed, I can still see some images." While Xu Qing was meditating, the Second Peak Life Fire young woman walked to his side, covering her damaged clothes with her hands, and spoke softly.

Although this young woman was seriously injured and pale, she couldn't hide her beauty. She had a melon-seed face, curved eyebrows, and phoenix eyes full of sorrow. She was actually an extremely beautiful woman, about thirty years old. Especially since she had been refining alchemy for many years, the medicinal fragrance on her body was very pleasant, just like Gu Gu Muqing's.

Xu Qing looked over upon hearing this.

I don't know if this young woman did it on purpose, but because Xu Qing was sitting and she was standing, the moment Xu Qing looked up, his gaze could see the damaged clothes she was covering on her chest. It was just that her hand didn't seem to cover it very accurately.

The snow-white skin inside, between the half-covered and half-hidden, seemed to hide astonishing mountain peaks.

Xu Qing's expressionless gaze moved away and landed on the young woman's face. The moment their eyes met, the young woman looked at Xu Qing's face and felt the terrifying fluctuations on Xu Qing's body, and her heart couldn't help but accelerate a few beats.

But soon she noticed her loss of composure, hurriedly lowered her head and pinched a formula. Instantly, a scene appeared in front of her.

In the scene, one could clearly see a large number of Sea Corpse Clan members walking out from the sea one after another. The number was so large that it was dense, which was shocking.

At the same time, in many locations on their island, there were also figures of Sea Corpse Clan cultivators.

Some were even approaching them here.

"How much longer until the tide time?" Xu Qing asked.

"About a hundred breaths more!" It wasn't the young woman who answered Xu Qing, but Gu Gu Muqing who walked over quickly.

She seemed to be walking a bit hurriedly. Her black hair was lifted by the wind and drifted slightly. At this moment, as she arrived, a few strands fell in front of her, sliding across her beautiful face, which was very beautiful.

Especially those clear eyes, and the fresh and natural aura emanating from the inside out, made Gu Gu Muqing at this moment look like a clear and beautiful painting.

After walking over, she looked at the young woman beside her and bowed lightly.

"Greetings, Senior Aunt Li."

The young woman smiled and looked at the girl in front of her with deep meaning.

After saying this, Gu Gu Muqing's beautiful eyes looked at Xu Qing again.

"Senior Brother Xu..."

Xu Qing looked at Gu Gu Muqing.

Seeing that Xu Qing didn't mind her address, Gu Gu Muqing was very happy in her heart and spoke softly.

"Senior Brother Xu, this is the control jade slip for the Forbidden Elixir here. You are the one with the highest cultivation here, and the sect requires this elixir to be activated before retreating. You decide." Gu Gu Muqing said, handing a jade slip to Xu Qing.

Xu Qing took the jade slip. He wasn't surprised why this jade slip was with Gu Gu Muqing instead of the Second Peak Foundation Establishment member on the side. He knew that those old guys of the Seven Blood Eyes actually trusted the core disciples the most.

So having this arrangement was not surprising.

At this moment, holding the jade slip, Xu Qing scanned it. Just at this moment, whistling sounds came from outside the valley. A group of Sea Corpse Clan cultivator figures appeared suddenly. Although they saw the corpses on the ground, the Sea Corpse Clan members still rushed toward them.

Amidst the tension of everyone in the valley, Xu Qing didn't look up and continued to check the jade slip.

Subsequently, screams came from outside the valley. All the Sea Corpse Clan members who approached showed signs of decay in an instant, and some even walked a few steps before melting directly into a pool of blue blood.

This scene made everyone in the valley change their expressions and feel heart-pounding. But the Second Peak disciples were the first to recover. Each of them stared at the outside, moved, and also looked at Xu Qing, feeling very shocked in their hearts.

They knew this was poison.

And poison that could make the Sea Corpse Clan unable to bear it must be specially made. This kind of specialized poison refining not only required extremely high attainments in pharmacology but also required countless attempts.

The former was fine, but the latter was the hardest.

This was also why there were few poison refiners in the Second Peak, because many times, the refining of poison hadn't killed anyone yet, but they themselves were poisoned first in the refining process.

And the existence of such deadly poison also made everyone's hearts more stable. At the same time, the outside of the valley soon became quiet. After all, under the effect of that poison, plus the black iron skewer and the Shadow taking advantage of the night to go out, it naturally became quiet soon.

Just like that, the time of a hundred breaths was about to arrive, and everyone here also stood inside and outside the teleportation array in batches, waiting to be activated.

The teleportation array here was not very large. According to the number of people here, it needed to be teleported three times.

Xu Qing also stood up and arrived beside the teleportation array, just about to speak, but his expression changed suddenly. He turned his head fiercely to look outside the valley.

Almost the moment Xu Qing looked over, a shocking fire shadow suddenly appeared in the dark night outside the valley. It was a figure covered in a white robe, rushing over rapidly from the distance.

The corpse poison on this person was spreading, and the Life Fire within his body was burning. The momentum erupted in the Profound Radiance State far exceeded that of a one-cluster Life Fire cultivator. At this moment, as he approached, heavenly thunder echoed.

The speed was so fast that it was indescribable. In the eyes of ordinary Foundation Establishment, it was impossible to see clearly at all, even the one-cluster Life Fire young woman was like this, unable to see clearly at all.

Only the pressure of the soul was rising uncontrollably in the hearts of the Seven Blood Eyes cultivators here at this moment.

Looking from afar, it seemed that there was a volcano erupting within the body of the person who came, and coupled with his corpse poison, the flames that spread became green.

"Two clusters of Life Fire." Xu Qing's eyes shrank.

The person who came was the first two-cluster Life Fire cultivator Xu Qing had seen on the battlefield.

His momentum was shocking. As he approached, the sky and the earth were reflected, turning green.

It was as if a green palm was slapping fiercely toward the valley here.

Until the moment he approached, this figure saw everything in the valley, seemed to pause slightly, but soon let out a laugh of unknown meaning, and his speed became faster.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and took a step forward. The moment his foot landed, the Life Fire within his body ignited suddenly.

As the volcano roared and erupted, he entered the Profound Radiance State. The familiar perception appeared again. Everything around him became slow, only the figure approaching in front was normal.

Xu Qing's body rushed, instantly rising into the air, heading straight for the person who came.

In the blink of an eye, the two touched in mid-air. The sound of the roar erupted suddenly, surpassing heavenly thunder, and while exploding in all directions, Xu Qing clenched his right hand into a fist, the Life Fire within his body burned, and he punched down fiercely.

That white-robed Sea Corpse Clan member also had Life Fire burning within his body. Two clusters of Life Fire shook the heavens and earth, and he also punched over. The sound erupted at this moment.

Xu Qing's whole body shook, and the internal organs within his body were rolling. He felt the opponent's strength. This strength exceeded Xu Qing's judgment of two fires.

He was very clear that his Qi Condensation foundation plus the existence of the Life Lamp meant that even if he faced two fires, he would definitely have the advantage. But now, this two-fire Sea Corpse Clan member seemed a bit different.

So he waved his hand to manifest the plesiosaur and roared to crash into him. At the same time, the black malevolent fire within his body also exploded, forming flame daggers one after another, heading straight for the opponent.

At the same time, Xu Qing raised his left hand, and in the blink of an eye, a heavenly blade appeared above him.

This blade was even stronger and had a larger range under the blessing of Xu Qing's Profound Radiance State, and there was black fire spreading all over it, slashing fiercely toward that white-robed Sea Corpse Clan member.

The loud sound shook the sky.

This white-robed Sea Corpse Clan member's body was blasted back. It seemed he was also uncomfortable, and the Life Fire within his body was shaking.

The next instant, Xu Qing's expression revealed cruelty, and he rushed over again.

And although this white-robed Sea Corpse Clan member was covered by the robe all over his body and couldn't see his appearance, the corpse poison was extremely heavy, and there was also a touch of madness in his eyes.

This madness was seen by Xu Qing. He frowned suddenly, but at this moment, there was no time to think too much. He still rushed out, and in the blink of an eye, he touched the Sea Corpse Clan member.

Roaring sounds erupted continuously. The two of them were in mid-air under their respective Profound Radiance States. Their attack speed was extremely fast, and the magic techniques were even more shocking. They kept coming and going, and in just over ten breaths, they attacked over a hundred times.

Subsequently, they bombarded each other with all their might and retreated. Xu Qing spat out a mouthful of blood, and that white-robed Sea Corpse Clan member also sprayed blood. In the eyes looking at Xu Qing, besides madness, there was also strong surprise and a trace of... unwillingness to accept defeat.

Xu Qing stared at the opponent's eyes without speaking. The volcano within his body erupted completely, and his body rushed out frantically like a sharp blade.

He waved the daggers in his hands, the heavenly blade reappeared, and at the same time, the spirit sea within his body spread to form suppression. There was also the black iron skewer where the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor was, coming with the sound of bells.

In addition, Xu Qing also sprinkled a lot of poison powder when attacking. After approaching rapidly, he slashed fiercely toward the opponent's neck with the dagger in his hand.

The speed was so fast that the white-robed Sea Corpse Clan member's pupils contracted, his heart was strongly shaken, and he retreated suddenly, narrowly avoiding it. But the robe was still slashed open by Xu Qing, and some items inside were scattered.

These items were of many kinds, but the most eye-catching were some fruits, including oranges, peaches, pears, among which apples were the most...
