Chapter 186: Entering the House Through the Door

~11 min read 2,086 words

Xu Qing was silent and looked back at the Captain.

He felt that the Captain was too deep into character. Speaking was just speaking; that delicate cough like a moan made Xu Qing very uncomfortable.

However, Xu Qing didn't say anything, because he knew that although the Vajra Sect Ancestor had been very well-behaved and hadn't appeared these days, according to the other party's personality, he must have secretly recorded some scenes.

Xu Qing felt that these precious photos could be used in the future.

Thus, he looked deeply at the Captain and turned his head without paying attention.

The Captain raised his eyebrows and was about to continue speaking, but at this moment, a fluctuation came from afar, and amidst the roar, the screening power of the formation descended again, landing on this black wood ship.

The octopus below was crawling on the ground trembling at this moment, letting the formation scan over. As for those ghost-faced butterflies, they dispersed swiftly. Xu Qing also looked downward with a heavy expression. He saw a huge building in the distance.

The shape of this building was very simple; it was two huge stone pillars, as if forming a door without a top, with a black vortex inside, rotating with a rumble, emitting red lightning bolts, spreading in all directions.

Outside the door, Sea Corpse Clan cultivators of varying numbers were sitting cross-legged on red lingzhi. There were men and women, some in human form and some with alien bodies.

At a rough glance, the number was no less than a thousand, guarding this place extremely tightly. Anyone who wanted to pass through this place and enter the vortex needed to pass through them and be released before they could.

And there were clearly strong people inside. Several gazes swept over, making Xu Qing also feel danger.

At this moment, the formation power spread. During its sweep, on the black ship where Xu Qing and the Captain were, the mark transformed by the three-fire Foundation Establishment Sea Corpse Clan member shone with light. After responding to the formation power, the formation fluctuation dissipated.

Only then did the octopus stand up again, moving carefully forward. When passing by one lingzhi after another, the Sea Corpse Clan cultivators on them all stood up and bowed to the Captain.

"Greetings, Third Princess."

"Greetings, Third Princess."

Xu Qing's expression was calm, but he was extremely vigilant in his heart. It was really that being gazed at by so many people, a slight carelessness in revealing a flaw would lead to a failure of all previous efforts.

At the same time, the gathering of the aura of the Sea Corpse Clan cultivators here also made the pressure here extremely great, and Xu Qing clearly felt that the small bottle in his bosom was evaporating faster. If this continued, he was afraid that it would fail before long.

And the Captain was the same. No matter how well he was disguised, he was still facing risks, so he was also nervous in his heart. Thus, he took out many black beads, played with them in his hand, and showed an impatient look on his face.

Until he was about to approach the giant stone pillar door, as more gazes looked over from all around, the Captain suddenly threw a black bead downward to the side.

A roar erupted instantly, and all the Sea Corpse Clan members around had their auras fluctuate.

"Have you seen enough?"

The Captain's expression changed from the previous impatience to a sweet smile. Although his face was pale and showed extreme weakness, it was precisely this weakness that made his smile seem to have a bit more of a touching and beautiful meaning.

The Sea Corpse Clan members all around were silent and lowered their heads immediately.

"Help this Palace in." The Captain smiled, stood up, walked to the front of the ship, and raised his hand toward Xu Qing.

Xu Qing was very impressed by the Captain's acting skills. At this moment, he lowered his head and walked over, supported the Captain's small hand, took a step forward, left the black wood ship, left the octopus below, and approached the huge black vortex ahead swiftly.

Compared to this vortex, Xu Qing and the Captain's size were like ants, insignificant.

At the same time, the terrifying fluctuation from within the vortex also made Xu Qing and the Captain's minds tremble.

But the two of them had enough psychological construction. At this moment, they still approached unhurriedly. After they were completely close, they looked at each other and stepped into the vortex at the same time without any hesitation.

As they walked in, their minds roared instantly, as if they had walked into another space, and when they appeared, they were in a red world!

The scope of this world was not very large. The ground was a piece of crimson liquid, like a blood pool, and all around was a circle of stone pillars, a full seventy or eighty of them.

And on each one, a Sea Corpse Clan cultivator was sitting cross-legged!

Besides this, the most prominent thing in this world was a huge statue. This statue stood on the water pool, its feet soaked in the pool water, and its height was a full three thousand zhang, like an existence supporting the sky.

It was crimson all over, covered with spots, and at the same time, it looked like a human corpse roaring toward the sky, and its hands were placed very strangely.

One hand was raised, as if it wanted to grab toward the sky, while the other hand was placed flat on its chest.

At the same time, there were a large number of tentacles growing on this statue. These tentacles spread in all directions like ribbons, and eyes opened on them, strange and at the same time, if one looked carefully at those eyes, one could see that they were reflecting the world inside.

Different worlds were reflected in those eyes, making the statue's aura heaven-shaking, its pressure shocking in all directions, and it seemed to resonate with all the Sea Corpse Clan members here.

It was as if these Sea Corpse Clan members were all transformed from the aura emitted by this statue, and this statue itself was their source.

At the same time, the pressure here was also clearly far beyond the outside world, at least dozens of times more, making the evaporation speed of the small bottle on Xu Qing's body the same.

And a crack appeared on the Captain's face, as if the disguise was about to shatter, but he didn't know how he did it, and the crack healed swiftly, but Xu Qing could feel some unstable fluctuations on the Captain's body.

Clearly, he couldn't persist here for too long either.

The two of them had their minds shaken.

This statue was exactly the Seventh Corpse Ancestor statue of the Sea Corpse Clan.

The appearance and size of the nine Corpse Ancestor statues of the Sea Corpse Clan were different. This seventh one was not the largest or the strongest among them, but no matter what, as one of the nine, its status in the Sea Corpse Clan was supreme.

Even the Sea Corpse Clan King had to bow respectfully every time he came.

Because the secret of the birth of the Sea Corpse Clan was contained within these nine statues, and at the same time, the red water pool produced by the statue itself, the liquid inside was also a necessary item for the Sea Corpse Clan to transform new clansmen, and it was also a holy liquid for healing.

At this moment, in this red water pool, there were dozens of Sea Corpse Clan cultivators sitting cross-legged and healing.

The weakest of these people were at the level of two fires, and there was also one with three fires. They all carried injuries, clearly returning from the front line.

They were fine, but what really caused a strong ripple in Xu Qing and the Captain's minds was that on the left hand placed on the chest of this statue, a child wearing a red robe was actually sitting cross-legged!

This child, Xu Qing had seen on the Pearl Islands before.

The other party was exactly the Golden Core cultivator of the Sea Corpse Clan who walked toward the Pearl Island group on the sea that day!

Seeing this, Xu Qing turned his head to look at the Captain.

The Captain was also taken aback and gave Xu Qing a wry smile.

Clearly, his intelligence was wrong. The previous guardian here might have been transferred, but a new guardian had come.

Xu Qing was silent. He felt he was too crazy to actually believe the Captain and come here with him.

Not only were there dozens of two-fires here, but there were thousands of cultivators outside, and at such a close distance, there was also a Golden Core who could slap him to death with one palm.

Although the other party was meditating, one could imagine that if the other party opened his eyes and looked at them carefully, he might be able to see the flaws. After all, the pressure here had consumed most of their concealment.

Not to mention that this was the island of the Sea Corpse Clan's territory, the base camp of the other party, and any kind of strong person could appear...

Xu Qing took a deep breath, suppressed the nervousness in his heart, and turned it into decisiveness. He fiercely gritted his teeth. Since he was here, he had to get some benefits no matter what.

At the same time, he also noticed the madness rising in the Captain's eyes. The two looked at each other and walked forward at the same time.

From the place where they appeared to the water pool, it was about a few hundred zhang distance. At this moment, as they walked, one rotting corpse hand after another rose from the ground.

These hands didn't entangle them, but stretched out to support the soles of their feet as they fell, making Xu Qing and the Captain walk close to the water pool slowly. Until they reached here, not many of the Sea Corpse Clan cultivators on the pillars around them opened their eyes to pay attention.

Only a few opened their eyes and swept over Xu Qing and the Captain. After noticing the Third Princess, they also withdrew their gazes one after another.

As for the Golden Core child, he also didn't open his eyes.

This made Xu Qing feel relieved in his heart. As he approached, he saw the Captain swiftly step into the water pool, find a place close to the statue's feet, and sit cross-legged. After sitting down, he even shifted his position from time to time, wanting to touch the statue thoroughly.

Xu Qing didn't speak and also stepped into the water pool. The moment he entered, he felt a strange power stored in this water pool, not spiritual energy, nor foreign matter.

It was more like a pure nourishment, and it also contained soul power, making Xu Qing just walk into it, and the Dharma apertures in his body faintly shook. This scene made Xu Qing immediately determine that this water pool indeed had a huge help for opening Dharma apertures.

So he also swiftly sat down, scanned the Sea Corpse Clan cultivators healing around, and carefully tried to absorb it.

Xu Qing knew that he couldn't open Dharma apertures here. Otherwise, the fluctuation emitted would be too obvious and could be detected by people instantly. So the best method was to accommodate.

Accommodate enough spiritual liquid of this place in the body, and after going out, impact the Dharma apertures in an instant.

How many Dharma apertures could be opened depended on how much could be accommodated here.

Xu Qing revealed decisiveness in his eyes. His cultivation base circulated in his body, and instantly, strands of blood-colored aura drilled into his body from the water pool, slowly gathering at his dantian position.

This red spiritual liquid appeared in the dantian and emitted a shocking might, making all the Dharma apertures in Xu Qing's body that hadn't been opened tremble continuously at their hidden places.

A feeling of longing rose strongly in Xu Qing's heart.

Xu Qing suppressed his breathing, carefully checked the surroundings, and continued to absorb. This feeling of stealing things under the enemy's nose...

Very exciting. ===== CHAPTER 187 =====
