Chapter 606: Green Silk as a Path, the Gate of the Flame Moon

The Green Sand Desert, at this moment, began to tremble violently.

It seemed as if the Captain's words had triggered some kind of taboo, causing the terrifying power hidden within this desert to erupt in an instant.

Grain after grain of sand rose into the air of its own accord, floating between heaven and earth.

Every single grain was vibrating, and upon them, hideous faces even emerged, roaring toward the firmament.

This roar became heavenly thunder, rolling and causing the sky to rumble in its wake.

The terrifying power within erupted in this instant.

Grain after grain of sand rose into the air of its own accord, floating between heaven and earth.

Every single grain was vibrating, and upon them, hideous faces even emerged, roaring toward the firmament.

This roar became heavenly thunder, rolling and causing the sky to rumble in its wake.

Furthermore, wind came from all eight directions, sweeping up everything.

Between heaven and earth, in this instant, it directly became a sea of sand.

Looking out, the endless sand rose continuously, and gradually, the horizon of the desert grew lower and lower.

The sand dancing in the sky, caught by the wind, collided with one another amidst a booming sound, shattering into flying ash and forming a sandstorm that spread in all directions.

Face after face let out painful roars from within, eventually converging to form one gigantic face, vaguely resembling a woman.

She was laughing, and also crying, covering the entire Green Sand Desert.

Alien essence spread, and the world blurred.

A god has descended! In an instant, the entire Green Sand Desert was plunged into darkness; spiritual sense could not spread even a fraction here, and it was difficult for the naked eye to see what was before it.

There was only an endless roar erupting here with heaven-shaking force; as for the cultivators here, they were all hiding within their respective mountains, watching all this in horror.

It is unknown who started it first, but they knelt down toward the giant face formed by the Green Sand Desert.

"Mother Bai!" As for the entrance to the place where Xu Qing and his group were headed, the tribespeople of the Wind-Guarding Clan were even more excited; all the tribespeople knelt, and ancient chants emanated from their mouths.

"Mother Bai awakens, resting in the Flame River."

The Divine Child descends to the world, saving the suffering of the eight wildernesses.

"The masses are confused, burying their hearts without direction."

"I am willing to become soil, nourishing the heavenly lands."

The chanting echoed within the sandstorm, blown away by the wind and drifting in all directions; although the storm was astonishing, it seemed to hold no great malice toward the people living here, so they were all still fine.

However... the cultivators of the Red Moon Temple, who had locked onto the Green Sand Desert and come whistling from all directions to sanction the source of the ancient scene, found their figures forced to retreat within this sandstorm.

This sandstorm seemed to vent all its malice upon these outsiders.

In an instant, a large number of Red Moon cultivators were sent reeling; while their expressions were filled with horror, some were directly submerged in the sandstorm, their bodies torn apart and their souls disintegrated, their shrill wails drowned out by the roaring.

Even the arriving Temple Emperor was moved, his expression changing drastically.

"Everyone, leave this place!"

He did not have the slightest hesitation and immediately gave the order; soon, the temple cultivators fled rapidly, retreating to guard outside the desert, not daring to enter even a step further.

As for the Temple Emperor himself and some Return to Void Divine Envoys, they forcibly broke in; within this sandstorm, they were like long spears, tearing through the void and heading straight for the entrance where Xu Qing and the others were located.

Getting closer and closer.

Yet on their path forward, the strange transformation of the Green Sand Desert was still ongoing, and the desert's horizon continued to descend along with the rising of countless grains of sand and the increasingly majestic face formed by the desert.

Ten zhang, eighty zhang, one hundred and fifty zhang... until finally, the entire Green Sand Desert had plummeted by a thousand zhang! Looking out, between the heavens and earth of the Green Sand Desert, the sand sea roared, and below... it was directly empty.

It revealed a massive deep pit, as if it were a heavenly sinkhole, and the ancient earth from before the desert had formed.

There were also mountain peaks of varying heights.

Some peaks had been completely buried under the desert and were now revealed for the first time after countless years. Others were partially exposed, like the Bitter Life Mountain Range, and now the buried parts were revealed.

Compared to the entire sinkhole, these mountain ranges were like sharp thorns, showing just how astonishing this pit was.

As for the ground within, the soil was pitch black, and while it emitted a sense of decay, there were also countless pits and gullies, as if an astonishing battle had once taken place here.

This change in the earth exceeded the imagination of the cultivators; the local cultivators of the Green Sand Desert were all horrified, the waves in their hearts were heaven-shaking, and their acts of worship toward Mother Bai became even more devout.

And the sea of sand between heaven and earth, under this continuous collision, was successively pulverized, continuously becoming flying ash, and blended together by the wind.

Vaguely, the form seemed to be changing... gradually, in the minds of everyone who witnessed this, a legend surfaced involuntarily. The legend that the entire Green Sand Desert was originally a heavenly sinkhole, until many years ago, when a strand of hair fell from the sky, turned into sand here, filled the sinkhole, and became the desert.

And today, this legend... was verified.

Because the infinite sand sea in mid-air, as its form changed continuously, finally converged together to form a... green hair! Once this hair appeared, the Red Moon Temple Emperor and the others all felt their minds tremble and were lost in a daze.

And the entire Green Sand Desert, at this very instant, felt as if time had been paused, laws had been stilled, and rules had been solidified; everything was directly silent.

The wind stopped blowing, time stopped moving, and all life, even all things, remained motionless.

Divine might descended.

The Green Sand Desert was directly isolated, as if separated from the entire Moon-Sacrificing Region, hidden in the cracks of time.

And that green hair now shrank rapidly, until it became the size of an ordinary person's hair, disappearing from the world; when it appeared again... it was within the sealed land, in front of the Captain.

It drifted down and landed on the Captain's palm.

The two ends of the hair swayed gently and hung down slowly.

The Captain turned his head to look at Xu Qing, his expression half-smiling.

"Little Ah Qing, are you very surprised?"

Xu Qing looked at the hair, and everything that had happened outside just now flooded into his mind the moment his gaze touched the hair.

He saw the changes in the outside world and saw the appearance of the sinkhole.

This scene caused Xu Qing's mind to fluctuate violently.

He knew that every major event the Captain undertook was incredibly stimulating, but he was still shocked by the scale of this move.

"Eldest Brother, is this the hair of the Upper God you mentioned before, who cooperated with your past life?"

Xu Qing took a deep breath and spoke in a low voice.

Seeing Xu Qing like this, the Captain felt satisfied; at this moment, he felt the rhythm had returned to his own hands, and he mused that this was in line with his usual pattern for doing big things.

"That's right, although this one doesn't have a very good temper, her status is extremely high."

The Captain was proud, shaking the hair in his hand.

"Whether it is the place where my past life was hidden or the seal here, it was all completed with her assistance, and the Green Sand Desert was formed by her hair."

"At the same time, this is also a token left for me."

"When one day the time is ripe, I can use the will of all living beings to turn the Green Sand Desert back into hair, and thereby... connect to her gate."

As the Captain spoke, he looked at the Heir and the others; he felt comfortable seeing the solemn expressions of the Heir and the old men.

The Heir's gaze was deep as he looked at the hair in Chen Erniu's hand and suddenly spoke.

"The one who cooperated with you is the Upper God of the Moon Flame, one of the three gods of the Flame Moon Profound Heaven Clan and the Moon Star!"

The Captain chuckled and nodded proudly.

"The three Upper Gods of the Flame Moon Profound Heaven Clan were originally going to give me face, but I eventually thought about how their clan is a mortal enemy of my human race, so I refused them." "In the end, this little Moon was so thick-skinned and insisted on helping, I had no choice but to reluctantly agree."

"In view of her working so hard, I promised to let her eat a few more pieces of Red Mother's meat when the time comes."

The Heir was expressionless; he acted as if he hadn't heard Chen Erniu's nonsense, while Princess Mingmei sneered and likewise ignored him.

Even though Xiang Ningyan and the others' minds were still fluctuating, upon hearing this, their first reaction was that Chen Erniu's bragging was too fake.

Xu Qing was already used to it and ignored it directly.

Seeing that everyone didn't believe him, the Captain sighed.

"Fine, fine, everything I said is true. One day you will know that not a single word I, Chen Chen Erniu, have said is false; it really was them begging me."

The Captain coughed dryly, shook his head with a look of helplessness, appearing as if he were misunderstood by the masses, then raised his hand and waved the hair in his hand into the vortex formed by the will of the masses.

As the hair drifted and fell into it, the rotation of the will vortex suddenly paused.

The hair within grew longer, continuously spreading and becoming larger, eventually forming a path.

This path wound its way deep into the void.

And at the end of the void, a door could vaguely be seen appearing.

This was an ancient, vicissitudinous, and ominous wooden door.

It was black wood, with many scratch marks on it; each one was very deep, and some even had bits of flesh in them.

While it was shocking to the eye, black blood could be seen overflowing from the cracks in the door.

A sense of decay rose from this black blood, and the eerie feeling of the door became absolute.

Furthermore, the aura of a god surged within; Xiang Ningyan and the others only had to take one look before they each wailed, the alien essence within their bodies erupting.

Xu Qing's vision also blurred, his mind shaking violently.

The Heir and the other three had solemn expressions, staring at the black wooden door as if facing a formidable enemy.

Only the Captain, with a relaxed expression, took a few steps into the vortex, stepped onto the path formed by the hair, turned back to look at Xu Qing, and smiled.

"Little Ah Qing, do you want to come over and take a look with me?"

Just as Xu Qing was about to speak, the next moment, the blood spilling from the cracks in the black wooden door suddenly became thicker, and a series of incredibly urgent knocking sounds suddenly emanated from within that black door.

Bang, bang, bang!

The sound was intense, incredibly loud, deafening, and shook the soul.

It was as if some existence within the door had noticed the arrival of outsiders, and so was striking with all its might, wanting to break the door open; because the force was so great, the wooden door itself was shaking violently, and more scratch marks appeared on it.

The sudden knocking made even the Captain startle; he blinked, tried hard to maintain his composure, and sighed.

"Honestly, why is it that everyone who gets locked up likes to knock on the door so violently?"

Old Ba, who was beside the Heir, glared at the Captain and suddenly spoke.

"She is cursing you."

This plot is quite difficult to write, as it needs to be one wave after another, so it is slow; recently I have been having fevers from time to time, and I don't know if I have caught the virus, and I haven't tested for antigens.

I want to write better; brothers and sisters, do you have any monthly votes? Give me some encouragement.
