Chapter 191: Slipping Away

~12 min read 2,388 words

But they were still a bit far away and couldn't arrive instantly.

At the critical moment, this Sea Corpse Clan Daoist roared, took out that jade coffin again, and fiercely gritted his teeth. The coffin erupted again, forming a sea of light. At the same time, from this sea of light, from that jade coffin, a finger stretched out.

As soon as this finger came out, it pointed directly in front of Xu Qing.

Amidst the echoing sound of 'ka ka', a strong crisis rose in Xu Qing's body. His expression changed, and he retreated swiftly without any hesitation. And the moment he retreated, the Sea Corpse Clan Daoist also finally caught his breath, his body retreating swiftly, wanting to open the distance.

But the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor, who had suffered losses one after another to the side, was anxious in his heart. He saw the shadow make contributions many times in this incident, which gave him a strong sense of urgency. He felt that if this continued, he would definitely be unable to escape the fate of becoming cannon fodder.

Thus, his eyes were red. He roared, didn't hesitate to self-detonate several lightning talismans to exchange for extreme speed, rushed out instantly, and actually pierced through the arm of the panicked Sea Corpse Clan Daoist in an instant.

As blood surged, the Daoist's expression changed greatly, while the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor retreated swiftly and returned with excitement.

Viewed from afar, the two in the battlefield were both retreating at this moment, only compared to the Sea Corpse Clan Daoist's embarrassment, Xu Qing was more composed.

But he didn't become arrogant. He knew very well that this Miaochen's combat power was far more than this, only because of the loss of the upper hand, his storm-like attack and the shadow's strangeness, plus the toughness of the physical body under the Golden Crow Refining Ten Thousand Spirits, made Miaochen fall into a momentary crisis.

Although he felt sorry in his heart that he couldn't kill the other party in one go, Xu Qing understood that he couldn't continue.

Thus, while retreating, his speed erupted, and he galloped toward the distance. The shadow and the black iron sign also approached instantly and fled together.

As for the Sea Corpse Clan cultivators rushing from all around, most of them were at the Daoist's side at this moment. The remaining part was about to chase Xu Qing, but after chasing for a few steps, they all had their expressions change greatly, spat out blood, and were poisoned.

The Sea Corpse Clan Daoist Miaochen, who was protected by the Sea Corpse Clan cultivators, was also poisoned. He was furious at this moment, pushed away the Sea Corpse Clan cultivators around him fiercely, killing intent heaven-shaking in his eyes, and the inner grievance reached the extreme.

He was a heaven-proud talent of the Lingyu Clan before he died, sensed one hundred and twenty Dharma apertures, died accidentally, and transformed into the Sea Corpse Clan. He was valued by the Sea Corpse Clan and listed in the King's sequence. Under full cultivation, he finally stepped into the four-fire realm.

It could be said that whether in Lingyu or the Sea Corpse Clan, except for that one time of death, he had never suffered such humiliation, especially since his right face was disfigured and his right ear melted at this moment, which made him, who cared very much about his appearance, have incomparable madness in his heart.

"I want to kill you!" This Sea Corpse Clan Daoist touched his right face, and while his entire body's flames rose fully, he chased out fiercely.

Xu Qing in the distance looked back, his eyes narrowed, and when he had the urge to try again in his heart, his expression suddenly changed.

In the distant sky, three auras erupted heaven-shakingly at this moment. The strength of these auras surpassed Foundation Establishment. They were three Golden Core powerhouses of the Sea Corpse Clan, whistling from the horizon toward here.

Looking from afar, the heavens and earth roared, the wind and clouds changed color, and the huge waves rolled up by these three were like the wrath of the sky, wanting to punish all living things.

Xu Qing took a breath. The sense of crisis was emitting in every inch of flesh and blood in his body at this moment. He didn't have any pause, mobilized all the cultivation base in his body, and the physical body was even more so, making his speed blessed to the extreme, fleeing faster, and flying toward the distance.

At the same time, there was also a roar behind him, and faintly, angry roars echoed in the heavens and earth.

"Thief, the old man doesn't believe that your mere stealth method can escape the search of my Sea Corpse Clan!"

"

Xu Qing was familiar with this angry roar; it was exactly the Golden Core child who chased the Captain before. And listening to his words, clearly, the Captain actually escaped from his pursuit.

This made Xu Qing have more guesses about the Captain's identity and true cultivation base, and at the same time, his heart was even more anxious. He knew very well that now, as the culprit, the Captain would be paid attention to by countless people, and once the Captain wasn't found, then he would definitely attract all the attention.

Thus, Xu Qing looked at the black iron sign.

The Jin Gang Sect Ancestor in the black iron sign didn't have the slightest hesitation. The next instant, the lightning talismans on the iron sign exploded seven or eight more, exchanging for faster speed, pulling Xu Qing to rush forward with all his might.

With the blessing of the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor, Xu Qing's speed broke through again, crossing a thousand zhang range in an instant, and stepped directly out of the forbidden area edge, arriving outside.

At the moment the Golden Core aura in the sky erupted and locked onto him, at the moment the Golden Core child roared behind him and his divine sense swept across the eight directions with terrifying fluctuations, Xu Qing didn't have any hesitation and opened the disorderly teleportation talisman.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Qing's figure blurred, and he was about to teleport, but at this moment, a cold snort came from the distant sky.

It was a three-headed, six-armed tall Sea Corpse Clan member. His Golden Core aura was extremely powerful, surpassing the Golden Core child.

He was very far away, pointing toward Xu Qing here.

"Forbidden!"

One word came out, and the space around Xu Qing was

"Hmm?" The Core Formation Sea Corpse Clan member in the distant sky narrowed his eyes, quickly took out a bead, and crushed it in his hand!

"Sever!"

As soon as his words fell, the Disorderly Teleportation Talisman in Xu Qing's hand could no longer withstand the pressure. It seemed to be connected to that bead in the netherworld, and as the bead was crushed, the teleportation talisman also shattered with a boom. While it became unusable, Xu Qing was simultaneously enveloped by a divine ability from the Core Formation Sea Corpse Clan member.

This power carried an intent to annihilate everything, making the flesh and blood all over Xu Qing's body seem as if it were about to tear apart and wither.

At this critical moment of crisis, Xu Qing's eyes turned blood-red, and he took out another Disorderly Teleportation Talisman to activate it.

He had a total of three Disorderly Teleportation Talismans; one was used for the dragon chariot, one had just been severed, and this was the final one.

At the same time, his magic ship suddenly manifested to block the attack. The next instant, the magic ship shattered with a boom, breaking into pieces. However, the trace of the Juying flesh within it still managed to block the intent of annihilation for a moment, turning what would have been a fatal blow into a severe injury for him.

Xu Qing spat out fresh blood, and his bones shattered with a crack at this moment. The Life Fire within him instantly extinguished, and his entire body withered as if decaying. Furthermore, he was sent flying by the force of the impact, with multiple parts of his body collapsing and shattering. His soul was unstable, and he was directly severely wounded.

But with this obstruction, his last Disorderly Teleportation Talisman also bought him a chance to teleport. Although the Core Formation cultivator who had arrived rapidly in the sky attacked again, Xu Qing's Disorderly Teleportation Talisman had been given to him by the Deputy Peak Master of the Seventh Peak; it was a Nascent Soul-refined item and had its own extraordinary qualities.

At this moment, as he activated it for the second time in succession and his figure was drenched in blood, the power of teleportation erupted with a boom, and Xu Qing's body instantly vanished within it!

Almost the instant he disappeared, the Sea Corpse Clan Core Formation cultivator descended violently, landing directly on the spot where Xu Qing had vanished, causing the earth to roar and a deep pit to appear, with the surrounding fluctuations rolling violently.

"A teleportation talisman refined by a Nascent Soul, and two of them at that. This person's identity is definitely not ordinary. However, having been planted with my Spirit Nether Curse Word, with this person's cultivation base, he will definitely die within three days at most!" This Core Formation Sea Corpse Clan member's expression was ugly; he turned and flickered, heading straight for the forbidden area.

And the moment he left, while the fluctuations caused by this incident left the Sea Corpse Clan in a rage and they were searching frantically nearby, a subtle distortion appeared in the empty land in the distance.

That distorted place looked like there was nothing there, but in reality, the Captain was hidden inside.

He was covered in injuries; one arm was already ruined, and there was a massive wound at his waist that was about to sever him in two, leaving his entire aura weak.

In his only remaining hand, he held a seven-colored seashell. The seven-colored light emitted by this shell possessed a miraculous stealth effect, making his existence, along with his aura, disappear without a trace.

This was also the method the Captain used to escape the Core Formation pursuit, but at this moment, he was somewhat dumbfounded.

He had watched with his own eyes as Xu Qing crushed the Disorderly Teleportation Talisman and left. Originally, he had intended to come over to say hello, but the scene he witnessed made his heart shudder.

"Gone? Left? Teleported away? I..."

A wail suddenly rose in the Captain's heart. He felt that this matter had become somewhat strange. He had only taken a bite, so why did the statue's nose explode?

In fact, even now, he felt this matter was inconceivable. It wasn't that he hadn't suspected Xu Qing, but it just so happened that the nose exploded right after that bite, and the frequency was about the same, making even him feel that it was highly likely caused by himself.

"The old man didn't say it would be like this, and he didn't cause such a big incident back in his day..." The Captain let out a long sigh. While he was carefully escaping with a bitter face, a sense of pride also rose in his heart.

"But this incident also shows from the side that I am more capable than the old man. Today's incident... exciting!"

The Captain took a deep breath. While a sense of smugness rose in his heart, the surroundings were roaring to the heavens, and one after another, Core Formation auras erupted, with even Nascent Soul auras coming from the distance.

This made the Captain instantly lower his head, crawling on the ground and moving bit by bit. On one hand, he had to hide, and on the other, he was afraid that if he moved too much, he would really break apart...

"At worst, I'll just throw away half my body..."

Just like that, three days passed.

With the fermentation of this incident, the entire Sea Corpse Clan was thoroughly enraged, conducting a frantic, full-scale search. This matter was, to the Sea Corpse Clan, vile to the extreme, and the degree of humiliation was indescribable.

Because the scene the Core Formation boy feared most had appeared.

Three days had passed, and the nose of the Seventh Ancestor Corpse God Statue still hadn't recovered.

At this moment, in front of the Seventh Ancestor Corpse God Statue, the Core Formation boy stood with a pale face and his head lowered. Standing beside him was a middle-aged cultivator.

This middle-aged cultivator was not human; he had two wings on his back, and his aura was restrained. Yet, just by standing there, the Core Formation boy beside him was trembling uncontrollably.

"Dark Left Marquis, this matter, I..."

"Ying Ling, the King is enraged by this matter." The middle-aged cultivator looked up at the statue, which looked extremely strange without a nose, and also watched the Sea Corpse Clan cultivators there investigating and attempting to repair it, speaking indifferently.

The Core Formation boy's body trembled even more violently.

Not long after, those Sea Corpse Clan cultivators at the statue's nose arrived before that Dark Left Marquis, filled with grievance and helplessness, and spoke respectfully.

"Marquis, the shattering of the Ancestor Statue is very strange. We are incompetent and find it difficult to repair it. Unless the two missing large pieces are retrieved, perhaps there is still a possibility."

The Dark Left Marquis was silent. After a long while, he spoke softly.

"Do you mean that one of the sacred objects of my Sea Corpse Clan, this Seventh Corpse Ancestor God Statue, will from now on have to appear before all our clansmen in this state without a nose? Is that it?"

Yesterday, Little Mengxin was drinking with the big boss Zhai Cai. As soon as they met, Little Mengxin was startled—the big boss was so handsome! Then, his heart trembled, feeling that the first battle of looks today was going to be a loss.

However... the big boss was not in good condition and couldn't hold his liquor~~

Little Mengxin won a round back~
