Chapter 438: Doing Big Things, We Are Serious

Afternoon.

On the cloudless firmament, the winter sun released its most dazzling light of the day at this moment, falling on the Ink Mountain Range some distance from the Capital District city.

The reason it was called this name was because the geology here was mainly black and white, with no vegetation, only a kind of snake called Ink Snake living here in groups.

And the two-colored mountain rocks overlapped, looking like someone had spread out an ink painting here from a distance.

At this moment, on a mountain top of this ink painting, six people were sitting.

These six people were clearly divided: one sat alone, one in the middle, and four behind.

The one sitting alone was naturally the Captain. He had a face full of pride, sitting cross-legged at the highest point, his gaze leaping over Xu Qing and looking down at the four people behind him.

The four people behind were Kong Xianglong, Shan Hezi, Wang Chen, and Ye Ling. They ignored the Captain and looked at Xu Qing sitting in the middle area, each with strong curiosity.

This place was the place Xu Qing had agreed upon with Kong Xianglong, who would cooperate with Xu Qing to perform a play later.

"Then, shall we start?" Amidst the anticipation of Kong Xianglong and the others, the Captain spoke indifferently.

Xu Qing nodded.

The Captain raised his chin, put on a transcendent posture, took out two medicine bottles, and tossed one to Xu Qing.

"Inside each medicine bottle is a Profound Heaven Demon Moon Elixir. After we take it, we can change our body structure and achieve true flesh-and-blood transformation. This way, after turning into Black Heaven Clan members, we can pass off the fake as genuine."

As soon as the Captain's words came out, Kong Xianglong raised his eyebrows in surprise, while Shan Hezi beside him gasped, his expression moved.

"Profound Heaven Demon Moon Elixir? This is the top-secret elixir of the Yi Clan, worth a lot and very rare. It is said that the materials for each elixir are the clansmen of the clan it transforms into!"

Wang Chen and Ye Ling were also surprised and looked at Chen Erniu.

The Captain looked like it wasn't worth mentioning and spoke lightly.

"This elixir is average. Originally there were better choices, but the Yi Clan owed me a favor. After knowing I had this need, they crossed several prefectures and personally delivered it to the Capital District, kneeling for seven days and seven nights to beg me. Sigh, the kindness was hard to refuse, so I could only accept it."

Xu Qing's expression was strange. He held the medicine bottle, glanced at the Captain, and then looked at the frowning Kong Xianglong and the others. Clearly, everyone didn't believe these words of the Captain.

The Captain shook his head and sighed, putting on an appearance of not wanting to say more about this matter, and took out the elixir from the medicine bottle.

Once this elixir appeared, red light was brilliant, dazzling, and a strange fragrance spread from within. Xu Qing smelled it and felt his own flesh and blood seem to squirm on its own, which showed it was extraordinary.

In front of everyone, the Captain swallowed this elixir in one gulp, and then his body shook. A piece of clothing actually formed outside his body, visible to the naked eye.

This clothing was gray, continuously covering, and finally enveloped the Captain's whole body.

Then it shrank violently, and the Captain's body immediately changed under the action of this clothing. His limbs became slender, his body became thin and small, but his head became larger, and his eyelids disappeared, his eyes enlarged.

His hair also changed under the shroud of the clothing, forming sharp thorns like a hedgehog.

A Black Heaven Clan member appeared in front of everyone like this.

This magical scene made Kong Xianglong and the others reveal strange light. Although most of them had heard of the Yi Clan's magical elixir, seeing it with their own eyes today, they still felt it was incredible.

Xu Qing saw the Captain's transformation complete and did not hesitate at all. He took out the elixir and swallowed it in one gulp. He felt his flesh and blood being rapidly changed in this instant, as if a part of it had been separated and sent outside his body, forming the clothing of the Black Heaven Clan.

The next instant, in the eyes of Kong Xianglong and the others, Xu Qing's appearance also changed, becoming a Black Heaven Clan member.

Gray skin, thin and small body, large head, full of sharp thorns.

And the clothing on his body also formed accordingly.

That clothing was not a Daoist robe, but dark red armor, covering his whole body, looking very strange.

"The blood of the Black Heaven Clan is black. In addition, although your aura has no flaws, the words and deeds and techniques of the Black Heaven Clan are different from our human race." Looking at Xu Qing and Chen Erniu, Kong Xianglong suppressed the urge to participate and reminded them.

"This matter is naturally also in Chen's preparation." The Captain laughed proudly and tossed a black stone to Xu Qing.

"This is a Black Blood Stone. After eating it, the color of your blood will change for a short time."

Saying this, the Captain swallowed it in one gulp, then bit himself, and black blood spilled from the broken flesh, matching the aura on his body, exactly the same as the Black Heaven Clan.

"As for techniques..." The Captain, who had turned into a Black Heaven Clan member, had gloomy light flash in his black eyes. A blurry spear appeared in the void in front of him rapidly.

Then he raised his right hand and waved it outward. Immediately, his body vibrated, and the next instant, countless Ink Snakes in this mountain actually emerged from eight directions amidst the rustling sound and gathered, raising their heads toward the Captain, as if obeying his orders.

This scene immediately made Shan Hezi stand up violently, and Wang Chen and Ye Ling also gasped, revealing disbelief. Kong Xianglong's eyes shone with bright light.

It was because... everything was exactly the same as the Black Heaven Clan in their memories, enslaving all races, creating something out of nothing.

Even if they hadn't seen the process of Chen Erniu's transformation with their own eyes, they would have thought at this moment that Chen Erniu was transformed by the Black Heaven Clan.

Xu Qing was also taken aback.

Seeing everyone's reaction, the Captain smiled unfathomably, waved his hand to disperse the snakes, the spear disappeared, and then he spoke with implication.

"Little Junior Brother, this time Big Brother will definitely take you to do a big one. In the future, don't go out to take tasks with people randomly. Those military merits are too few. For tasks like this, you have to see who is leading the team."

Kong Xianglong let out a cold snort.

Xu Qing smiled bitterly, swallowed the black stone in his hand, and after changing his own blood, he was also curious about how the Captain managed to unfold the Black Heaven Clan techniques. However, thinking of the mystery on the Captain, this matter didn't seem strange.

"I should be able to do it too." Xu Qing was thoughtful, remembering the Black Heaven Clan eye he had studied for three days.

"Then, Little Junior Brother, the old rules?" The Captain swept over Kong Xianglong and the others, then looked at Xu Qing, licking his lips.

Xu Qing understood as soon as he heard it. A hint of hesitation appeared in his big black eyes, and he nodded.

Kong Xianglong and the others were surprised upon hearing this, not knowing what the old rules of these two were.

Just as they were pondering, the Captain suddenly stepped out, raised his right hand, and an ice spear appeared. He stabbed it into Xu Qing's chest, pierced through, and then the ice spear exploded, turning into countless sharp ice blades, which erupted directly on Xu Qing's body.

In an instant, black blood filled Xu Qing's body, and the Captain didn't end it. He clenched his right fist and landed it on Xu Qing's right arm, breaking it with a crack. When Xu Qing gasped, the Captain arrived rapidly and opened his mouth to bite.

Xu Qing's eyes glared, and he retreated instantly, speaking.

"It's my turn!"

"Haha, I'm used to it, I'm used to it. It wasn't intentional. You go, you go." The Captain was a bit embarrassed.

Xu Qing endured the pain, his gaze unkind, and he approached instantly. He flipped his right hand and a black dagger appeared, piercing through the Captain's stomach.

The Captain wailed.

Amidst the spraying blood, Xu Qing didn't stop. The dagger cut upward and then pulled out, changed direction, and continued to stab. After seven or eight stabs, the Captain was covered in wounds, and Xu Qing instinctively raised his head and slashed across the Captain's neck.

After this slash, the head almost fell off.

The Captain's eyes widened, and he retreated rapidly to avoid it, speaking unconvinced.

"The Sword-Holders have been chasing us for a long time, so there must be sword wounds!" Saying this, he drew his command sword and stabbed Xu Qing seven or eight times.

Xu Qing endured the pain, and as more blood flowed down, he spoke in a low voice.

"Since we've been chased for a long time, we haven't had time to rest, and the wounds will rot." During his words, he began to release poison, and the next instant the Captain screamed, and the wounds on his body rotted.

"We've been hiding here and there, the spiritual energy here is insufficient, and we will be very weak!" The Captain continued to act.

"The Black Heaven Clan doesn't like sunlight, and after a long time, their bodies will be corroded!" Xu Qing gasped and struck again.

Just like that, the two went back and forth. This scene left Kong Xianglong and the four others dumbfounded, directly stunned on the spot. After a long while, all four gasped and instinctively looked at each other.

"Are they this serious?"

"Xu Qing once said that he and his Big Brother experienced life and death many times..." Shan Hezi said in a low voice.

Everyone agreed deeply.

After a long while, the Captain grabbed the dagger Xu Qing stabbed over and spoke weakly.

"Little Ah Qing, we... should be about done, right? If we continue, we'll really be gone."

Xu Qing was panting, one hand pressing on the ice blade the Captain stabbed over.

"It should be okay."

The two stopped at the same time. When each was weak, the Captain looked at the sky.

At this moment, it was dusk, the rosy clouds filled the sky, revealing a blood color, and on the earth far away, dust and mist were rising at this moment, and there was vibration from the ground, and faintly there were some roars of fierce beasts mixed in.

"That target convoy has arrived. Little Junior Brother, it's time for us to go on stage and perform. Although there is a plan, we should still adapt to circumstances later!" Saying this, the Captain stood up, covered his stomach, swayed forward, and fled rapidly.

Xu Qing's expression was stern. He looked back at Kong Xianglong and the others, cupped his fists, turned around, and unfolded his full speed toward the sky, galloping away.

Kong Xianglong and the four others were energized. After witnessing Xu Qing and Chen Erniu's methods, they were moved and also felt infinite admiration in their hearts.

Especially the act of the two of them hurting each other so hard before made them very shocked, feeling that Xu Qing and Chen Erniu were too serious, so they also became serious.

Each of their expressions revealed fierce energy and cruelty, rose into the air, and chased rapidly toward the Captain and Xu Qing in front.

"In our human territory, let's see where you can escape to!"

"They are seriously injured and won't last long!"

"Everyone be careful, the Black Heaven Clan is good at enslaving. They fled in this direction, there must be a reason."

As Kong Xianglong and the four others spoke loudly and chased, in order to be more realistic, Ye Ling simply waved his hand and crushed a jade slip. Instantly, a beam of light rushed into the sky, exploded in the firmament, and formed a sword shape.

That was the symbol of a Sword-Holder.

At this moment, a hundred miles away from this place, a convoy was moving forward majestically.

There were no less than hundreds of carriages inside, each about a hundred zhang in size, covered with black canvas, dragged by four-legged giant beasts with red skin all over, moving forward.

On every four-legged giant beast, there was a Saint-Lan Clan cultivator. Among them, there were no Nascent Souls, most were Foundation Establishment, and as for Golden Cores, there were about ten.

They were all in the appearance of the second or third palace.

Only three belonged to the fourth palace, and the strongest was a youth, wearing a brocade robe, with an extraordinary appearance, and a black line between his eyebrows was exceptionally clear, clearly with impressive bloodline, possessing the combat power of the sixth palace.

They were the transport team of the Tianding Kingdom, one of the thirty-six city-states around the True Immortal Ten Intestines tree in the Great Desolate East Prefecture of the Saint-Lan Domain.

This time, coming to Fenghai Prefecture, they held the customs clearance order given by the Yao family to transport Cloud Mica Stones here.

This stone was special and could not be put into a storage bag, so it had to be a convoy.

And the Yao family's order also made them unimpeded to a certain extent in Fenghai Prefecture, but they also knew the conflict with the human race, so if the people who came were too strong, it would attract too much attention.

On the contrary, it was better to be ordinary to show no threat.

After all, they were here to transport, not to kill. Now that they had collected the Cloud Mica Stones, the convoy galloped all the way without any pause, rushing toward the border.

Seeing that they were about to reach the Ink Mountain Range, following the roar in the firmament and the manifestation of the Sword-Holder signal, some commotion immediately appeared in the convoy.

The youth with extraordinary appearance and temperament inside suddenly looked up and looked at the firmament with cold eyes.
