Chapter 585: Canglong Takes Control

The Red Moon Temple in the Jiyue Great Domain had an architectural style dominated by black, and inside stood tall statues of the Red Mother.

This color combination, under the dim sky, appeared even more gloomy, giving people an indescribable sense of oppression.

The sobbing wind whistled through the mountains, landing on the Red Mother statues, blowing the two pairs of crescent-shaped earrings hanging from the Red Mother's earlobes, causing them to collide and produce a tinkling sound, which mingled with the Mingnan Shizi's voice.

Xu Qing paid no attention to the Mingnan Shizi's words. At this moment, all his energy was focused on the Yangdao cultivator shrouded in infinite lightning before him.

His mind was incomparably calm, his cultivation base erupted fully, and thirteen Three-Tribulation Nascent Souls operated in unison, turning him into a black lightning bolt that rushed into the lightning pool, unstoppable.

His speed was so fast that he approached in an instant, his right hand raised to unfold the Ghostly Seclusion transformation, becoming transparent, and rushed straight toward the cultivator who had turned into a tree-man.

He grabbed fiercely.

"My rules cannot be resisted." The tree-man sneered, not dodging. The secret storehouse in his body roared, and his right hand burned with red flames—this was the manifestation of Red Moon faith.

There were even bursts of invisible rule power emanating from his secret storehouse, shrouding the surroundings, making this place contain the laws he had established.

At this moment, he raised his right hand and grabbed toward Xu Qing's arm.

They touched in the blink of an eye. Xu Qing's cultivation and combat power had a gap, but he possessed the Purple Moon power, which could to a certain extent offset the divine might from the Red Moon.

But even so, he was still inferior. Amidst the roar, Xu Qing's body trembled; the power from the tree-man's large hand felt like iron, restricting him tightly.

There were even terrifying fluctuations crushing toward Xu Qing through the tree-man's body. At the same time, the sound of incantations came from the tree-man's mouth.

It was complex and difficult to understand, yet contained an eerie feeling. Yin winds blew all around, and countless ghost shadows appeared out of thin air, pouncing toward Xu Qing.

At the critical moment, Xu Qing's decisive and ruthless killing style was revealed. He actually ignored his right hand being grabbed and pulled his body fiercely.

With a crack, the joint of his right shoulder dislocated, exchanging this for an unexpected twist of his body. He raised his right foot and swept fiercely toward the tree-man.

The Heavenly Demon body behind him manifested simultaneously, numbering in the hundreds, appearing rapidly in all directions, pouncing together.

The shadow beneath him also spread at this moment, and the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor flew out from the side, hiding his sharpness and stabbing from the flank.

Amidst the roar, Xu Qing's expression sank. His sweeping foot actually passed straight through, and the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor did the same.

"This is not the main body!"

At the same time, several dozen zhang behind Xu Qing, the temple cultivator who had turned into a tree-man suddenly appeared; this was the main body.

"Pity, you don't understand Yangdao cultivators; there exist rule establishments around you that you don't understand." He sneered, raised his right hand, and pressed down suddenly toward Xu Qing in the distance.

Instantly, the infinite lightning around turned into a large number of lightning snakes, rushing straight toward Xu Qing from all directions, not giving him the slightest chance to dodge, shrouding him directly.

Especially the huge arm that had grabbed Xu Qing's right hand; at this moment, its form changed, becoming a huge maggot, and it exploded suddenly.

Roaring sounds rose to the sky. The temple cultivator's main body swayed forward at high speed, his right hand waving, and a large number of branches danced, forming a giant battle axe, rushing straight toward Xu Qing.

Xu Qing's body retreated rapidly, but he still couldn't escape the range of the lightning pool and the maggot's self-detonation. However, Xu Qing had rich combat experience, and at this moment, seven-colored light flashed all over his body.

At the same time, he pressed his right hand to the ground and twisted his body fiercely. With a crack, ignoring the intense pain, he restored the dislocated joint.

Then, the light erupted, brushing outward together. After dissipating most of the lightning, the shadow stood up to block his surroundings, forming a coffin that shrouded him.

Using this to avoid the residual power, amidst the spreading sound, the shadow coffin rolled back and landed several dozen zhang away. The moment it landed, the shadow dispersed, and Xu Qing's figure emerged. He did not hesitate at all. The moment he appeared, he looked up at the approaching tree-man cultivator, counted the time in his heart, and the power of the five sundial life lamps in his body erupted directly.

Time reversal!

In an instant, the sundial life lamps shone with a dazzling light, and time formed a storm within, drowning Xu Qing's whole body while also erasing his figure from the position he was in at this moment. When he appeared, he was actually at the position from seven breaths ago!

This position was exactly behind the temple cultivator!

"Time law? This is impossible!" The temple cultivator was stunned, his pupils contracting.

This change was the first time it had exceeded his expectations. Although his own combat power surpassed Xu Qing's, after the simple exchange just now, he had already felt that the other party had many methods and rich combat experience, and the gap between them wasn't actually that large.

The reason he was being suppressed was more because the other party was a bit unfamiliar with fighting Yangdao cultivators.

And in this process, suddenly displaying such a method must be a trump card. The temple cultivator's mind reacted instantly, not continuing to attack, but displaying the rule power contained within his secret storehouse, about to leave this place.

But it was too late.

Xu Qing did not hesitate at all. The freezing power of the sundial life lamps in his body erupted suddenly, all five sundials erupting, forming an ultimate solidification might, all landing on the temple cultivator.

Fixing his time, solidifying everything about him.

At the same time, he raised his right hand, a dagger appeared in his hand, and he slashed fiercely toward the neck of the temple cultivator in front of him.

The moment the familiar sound came, to ensure a one-hit kill, the toxin power rose along with it, destroying his vitality.

The sundial needles in his body also flew out rapidly, turning into five long rainbows that rushed out, piercing rapidly toward the temple cultivator's body.

Roaring sounds echoed; Xu Qing had given his all.

The next moment, the temple cultivator's head flew off, and his body, under the impact of the five sundial needles, was destroyed like dry wood, collapsing with a roar, falling apart.

After doing all this, Xu Qing breathed rapidly, looked at the remains on the ground, and then looked up at the Mingnan Shizi in mid-air.

The Mingnan Shizi also had waves in his heart, but on the surface, he had no expression, speaking indifferently.

"Thirty breaths remaining."

Xu Qing, hearing this, narrowed his eyes, looked fiercely at the remains on the ground, waved his hand to spread a flame, shrouding and burning the ground, while his body retreated rapidly.

But the moment he retreated, nine crimson vortex groups flashed out from the place where the temple cultivator had perished, rushing straight toward Xu Qing.

No matter how Xu Qing dodged, it was to no avail. In the blink of an eye, he was shrouded within.

These nine vortex groups circled and shone, and a roaring sound erupted. In an instant, they actually formed an illusory secret storehouse.

Looking from afar, Xu Qing was inside this secret storehouse!

"Secret Refining into One!"

The temple cultivator's voice came from within the illusory secret storehouse, and a majestic power erupted instantly, turning into countless rules and laws, forming sun, moon, stars, ice, fire, thunder, and wind, turning into a cage to refine Xu Qing.

Sun and moon fixed the spirit, ice and fire refined the body, thunder served as aid, and heavenly wind turned into might.

Xu Qing's body and soul shook violently. In his perception, he was clearly still in the original place, but he had a sense of being in another space.

That pressure from all directions and the sense of refining seemed to want to crush his soul and burn all his flesh and blood.

Intense pain rose along with it, and every inch of flesh and blood was tearing apart.

Xu Qing was expressionless, feeling everything around him.

In mid-air, the Mingnan Shizi watched all this, his eyes holding more depth, and he spoke slowly.

"What you are facing right now is the true Yangdao. If you cannot escape, you will face the fate of being suppressed and refined to death."

As the Mingnan Shizi's words echoed, the sense of refining surged, and vaguely, the illusory secret storehouse could be seen transforming into the temple cultivator's body.

At the critical moment, a cold light flashed in Xu Qing's eyes.

"So this is a secret storehouse without a Heavenly Dao."

"Since there is no Heavenly Dao, I will give you one, how about that!"

"Canglong!"

"Apologies, I really didn't manage to finish the manuscript. The updates these past few days have disappointed everyone."

"This was written on the road, and I am still on the road. Updates will resume tomorrow."
