Chapter 448: My Lord, This Is Your Life Lamp!
Xu Qing's eyes condensed.
The Heavenly Peak Sovereign's voice continued to come.
"At the same time, in the depths of the True Immortal Ten-Intestine, there exists a power that makes people go mad. All those invaded are without exception crazy, not distinguishing between friend and foe. Their cognition seems to have been changed, believing that they are the E-Immortal Clan."
"However, what is even more weird is that some who have escaped from the depths after dying, in the records of the thirty-six city-states, not one had a good end, and the method of death was that the stomach was opened and the intestines flew and danced."
"Some opened it themselves, but some... were supported from the inside by the intestines, so there is a saying in the records about this: in the depths of the Ten-Intestine, there is a power that makes the life intestines activate."
"These are just a part, and there are more changes, and every time the True Immortal Ten-Intestine blossoms, the weird things that appear will have some different places, not fixed, so it is even more dangerous."
"Generally speaking, our thirty-six city-states will not step into the depths, just collecting Dao Fruits on the periphery. By the way, regarding the True Immortal Ten-Intestine, there is actually another rumor..."
The Heavenly Peak Sovereign looked at Xu Qing and spoke in a low voice.
"This is a rumor among the descendants of the E-Immortal Clan, saying that the many dangers of the True Immortal Ten-Intestine are actually to prevent others from disturbing them. If this place is compared to a tomb, those dangers are prepared for grave robbers."
"They don't know the correct method of entering, so they will die horizontally, just as if all the dangers in this place are like puzzle pieces. Only by mastering the correct way can one step in safely and smoothly."
"However, even the descendants of the E-Immortal Clan, who are the original inhabitants of this domain, have never known the correct method, so the rumor has really become a rumor."
Xu Qing was thoughtful, his gaze sweeping over the Captain seemingly casually. He thought of what the Captain had said before, about giving him a super great fortune that was earth-shattering and unparalleled in the world.
"The Captain's familiarity with this place seems not to have been obtained entirely from the intelligence of the County Capital."
Xu Qing pondered in his heart and walked forward.
Just like this, time passed, the day passed, the sky dimmed somewhat, the sunset glow of dusk covered the sky, and Xu Qing's group also arrived at the boundary of the depths from the periphery of the True Immortal Ten-Intestine on this day.
The boundary was formed artificially, and a long line was drawn on the ground, circling the entire True Immortal Ten-Intestine with special paint.
Here, the crowd paused.
The harvest of this day was also not small for Xu Qing.
With the Heavenly Peak Sovereign leading the way and the Black-Clad Guards picking Dao Fruits, Xu Qing's number of Dao Fruits had now reached more than three thousand.
As for danger, not much was encountered. Occasionally, some sporadic weird things appeared, which were also resolved by the Black-Clad Guards like a hot knife through butter.
Especially Lin Yuandong, who disregarded his own safety, protecting Xu Qing in front many times, looking like a loyal protector. Every time Xu Qing nodded at him, it would make him excited.
At this moment, Xu Qing stood by the boundary, looking into the distance, and the Heavenly Peak Sovereign beside him spoke in a low voice respectfully.
"Divine Son, let's stop here. This line was formed by the ancestors of the thirty-six city-states, and within it represents incomparable danger and crisis."
"Regarding the Profound Heaven Demon Moon Pill, this subordinate has already contacted it, and it is on the way to the Heavenly Peak Kingdom. As for the Dao Fruits the Divine Son needs, I have also communicated with other city-states. After half a month, when the city-states have finished picking one after another, they will be sent to the Divine Son as well."
Xu Qing and the Captain looked at each other, and after a long while, spoke calmly.
"Zhou Xingwu, has my life lamp arrived?"
Lin Yuandong's body trembled upon hearing this, and Zhou Xingwu, who had been silent all the way, transmitted his voice in a low voice.
"My Lord, the voice transmission in this place is limited. This subordinate does not know how the progress is. I think that after we go back, there will be a conclusion."
"You go back and check, and take the life lamp. I will wait here." Xu Qing sat cross-legged and spoke calmly.
Zhou Xingwu's brows furrowed. The other party's words gave him the feeling that he didn't intend to return to the Heavenly Peak Kingdom, but wanted to go to the depths of this True Immortal Ten-Intestine.
"This Divine Son is so anxious about the life lamp?" Zhou Xingwu narrowed his eyes. While pondering, the Heavenly Peak Sovereign on the side looked at Xu Qing deeply and suddenly spoke.
"Divine Son, could it be that you possess a secret method that can stimulate the withered bloodline contained within the life lamp, thereby offsetting some of the curses of the True Immortal Ten-Intestine, and intend to step into the depths?"
Hearing the Heavenly Peak Sovereign speak like this, Xu Qing was a bit surprised in his heart. When looking at the Heavenly Peak Sovereign, the other party turned his head and didn't look at him, but spoke in a low voice to Zhou Xingwu.
"Commander Zhou, the Divine Son has given an order, why don't you go quickly!"
Zhou Xingwu thought for a moment and suppressed the doubts in his heart. This matter, regardless, didn't have much to do with him, as long as he did his duty well. Thus, he left some Black-Clad Guards behind, took the rest, and left this place, heading straight for the Heavenly Peak Kingdom.
With their departure, this place became quiet, the red glow of the sunset in the sky slowly darkened, the entire jungle gradually dimmed, and the Heavenly Peak Sovereign stood there, turning his head to look at the Heavenly Peak Kingdom, and then looking further away.
That was the direction of the Tianfeng Upper Kingdom, and also where his son was at this moment. His expression rose with a touch of complexity at this moment.
The Captain looked at Xu Qing, unmoved, and Xu Qing had also spread his perception. A touch of majesty vaguely exuded from the dim red glow, which was the Black Heaven Divine Statue.
Coming to the True Immortal Ten-Intestine, Xu Qing naturally would not be unprepared. Although he hadn't completely replaced the Black Heaven Divine Statue with Purple Moon power, this didn't affect the transmission of his orders.
After a long while, amidst the waiting of the Black-Clad Guards around who were sitting cross-legged one by one, the Heavenly Peak Sovereign, who was looking at the Heavenly Peak Kingdom in the distance, suddenly turned to look at Xu Qing and spoke softly.
"Divine Son, how is my son's aptitude?"
"Muye's mind is not bad, and his aptitude is excellent. It is the Saint Lan registration that limits his future." Xu Qing spoke calmly.
The sunset glow reflected in the Heavenly Peak Sovereign's eyes, covering the brilliance, making it impossible for outsiders to see the changes in his expression and gaze, only hearing his low whisper.
"I am a Soldier Child registration of the fourth level, destined for my descendants unless a heaven-defying cultivator appears, otherwise they cannot be changed and are all this registration... Fortunately, he is valued by the Divine Son, who raised his registration to the first level, which is the most noble."
"Divine Son, your goal, from beginning to end, is the depths of this True Immortal Ten-Intestine, right? You are the Divine Son of the Black Heaven Clan. According to reason, if you take a fancy to something, naturally there will be an order from the Divine Temple, letting the Saint Lan Clan help you take it."
"Or such a dangerous place, there should be a protector following..."
Xu Qing's heart sank. The Captain approached Xu Qing a few steps, but they soon discovered that the Black-Clad Guards around actually closed their eyes one by one. Unknowingly, they had fallen into a deep sleep.
"I understand, Divine Son. You must have an opponent in the Black Heaven Clan, and your opponent's power is very large, and there is more than one Divine Son, needing to compete with each other?"
"So, this time you can only come by yourself, for the sake of the unknown fortune in this place, just like the struggle for the throne in the Tianfeng Dynasty. But although you have an opponent, for us little people, especially those raised by you, we will not be affected."
"After all, this doesn't fit the identity. According to logic, it is just like this."
The Heavenly Peak Sovereign muttered, then turned to look at Xu Qing, with depth in his eyes.
"My Lord, this time... after you step into the depths of the True Immortal Ten-Intestine, will you come back?"
"You... will not come back, right." The Heavenly Peak Sovereign revealed depth in his eyes.
Xu Qing looked at his eyes. The other party's low whisper before, no matter how one looked at it, was self-comfort.
After all, being able to become a sovereign of a country, even if it was a small country, his mind was by no means an ordinary person.
But reaching this step, whether he doubted or not was no longer important. The matter of raising the registration had already bound them together.
"I have other things to deal with, and I will not come back." Xu Qing spoke calmly. Although he answered the other party, this sentence itself didn't have any problems.
Hearing this, the Heavenly Peak Sovereign didn't speak, sat down cross-legged, and remained silent.
And the Black-Clad Guards around also woke up instantly, their expressions without any abnormality. Clearly, they didn't even realize they had been asleep.
Just like this, time passed. Until night fell, whistling sounds came from the distance of the jungle. When the Heavenly Peak Sovereign's eyes flashed with cold light and looked there, Zhou Xingwu approached rapidly with his subordinates.
Zhou Xingwu's expression was as usual, but there were waves in his heart. What made him rise with waves was the life lamp. He had indeed brought a life lamp!
The Tianfeng Dynasty actually transmitted a life lamp, which made him determine three points more about Xu Qing's identity in his heart. After arriving, he bowed to Xu Qing, and with a wave of his hand, a red life lamp appeared in his hand and handed it to Xu Qing.
With Xu Qing's control over his emotions, after seeing this life lamp, he still had waves in his heart. He raised his hand and grabbed it from the air. The red life lamp flew over and landed in his hand.
The appearance of this life lamp was a blood-colored wing, not a pair, only one.
The feathers of the wing were carved vividly, exuding bursts of blood-evil aura. At a glance, it was a lamp that mastered killing and cutting, extremely extraordinary, and the fluctuation on it was even more astonishing.
Holding the life lamp, Xu Qing felt dazed in his heart. He really didn't expect that he would actually ask for it just like that.
This was a life lamp. The two in his body were obtained by risking his life.
"The third one!" Xu Qing suppressed the waves in his heart. He knew that the life lamp could not be placed in a storage bag, and it was not suitable to absorb it now. He still needed to check some things before he could, so he put this life lamp into his bosom.
And Qingqiu and Xiang Ningyan on the side, watching Xu Qing put the life lamp into his bosom, their hearts were trembling violently.
"Damn Black Heaven Clan, I worked so hard and didn't get a life lamp, and this Black Heaven clansman said one sentence..." Qingqiu gritted her teeth in her heart.
Xiang Ningyan also gasped, his mood difficult to calm down.
"Divine Son, the life lamp has come, so what's next?" The Heavenly Peak Sovereign bowed respectfully to Xu Qing and asked for instructions.
"Enter the depths of the True Immortal Ten-Intestine!" Xu Qing spoke in a low voice and stepped towards the line on the side.
The Captain followed closely behind, gloomy light revealing in his eyes, and Qingqiu and Xiang Ningyan had no choice but to follow.
Zhou Xingwu hesitated.
"Commander Zhou, your duty is to guard the Divine Son. The road ahead is dangerous. You and I will cooperate, and we must guard the Divine Son's safety." The Heavenly Peak Sovereign spoke solemnly and stepped over the boundary line.
Zhou Xingwu frowned, didn't speak, pondered, and took the Black-Clad Guards to step in as well.
And just the moment they all entered the boundary line, in the depths of the True Immortal Ten-Intestine, a sudden change occurred!
The dancing shadow that had appeared in the illusion in Xu Qing's perception actually appeared on the True Immortal Ten-Intestine in the distance at this moment.
A phantom sea of fire formed around it, covering it, making the dancing body move with the swaying of the fire.
Vaguely, more figures manifested, and even ancient chanting echoed.
This scene made Xu Qing's heart sink.
The Captain revealed strange light, and no one noticed that deep in his pupils, at this moment, a face identical to his own appeared.
The face in the pupil was opening its mouth, emitting a sound that no one heard, and looking at its mouth shape... it was exactly the same as the ancient chanting blown by the wind.
But the next instant, the face in the Captain's pupils disappeared. He blinked and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
At the same time, the Black-Clad Guards and the Heavenly Peak Sovereign in this place also looked at the changes appearing in the distance with solemn expressions.
"Divine Son, be careful. It's a bit wrong. This place is not the same as before. Whether it is my past experience or the records in the classics, this kind of illusion should only appear when walking to the very depths." ===== CHAPTER 449 =====
