Chapter 627: The Change of the Reverse Moon

On the bank of the Si Yin Long River, the old man from the inn, who had traveled thousands of miles from Fenghai through mountains and rivers, enduring hardships and dust, arrived here. The one he said was hungry, cold, and living in fear,

Xiang Linger was currently sitting cross-legged in the back room of the medicine shop, feeling carefree. The recognition of her cuteness and sweetness by the old grandfathers and grandmothers, coupled with her relationship with Xu Qing, made her like a little princess, and her little face had even become a circle fatter.

She looked chubby and quite cute.

At this moment, she was holding the bone elixir Xu Qing had given her.

This bone elixir could be collected by the mud fox, so it was naturally not ordinary, and it must have been transformed by some great power of the Ancient Spirit Clan.

Perhaps it didn't mean much to other clans, but for the Ancient Spirit Clan, this was a supreme treasure.

Especially for Xiang Linger, she had the blessing of the Ancient Spirit Clan's luck, so she didn't need to consider the issue of her bloodline being cursed in the short term. Therefore, absorbing the power of this bone elixir had no extra restrictions; her own limit was the limit of absorption.

And with Xu Qing guarding her, it was even more foolproof.

So soon, with the operation of her cultivation base, the bone elixir gradually melted, turning into wisps of silver mist that surged into Xiang Linger's mouth, spreading through her whole body, and at the same time, the fluctuations of her cultivation base rose suddenly.

When she first arrived at the Moon-Sacrifice Domain with Xu Qing, Xiang Linger's cultivation base was already Foundation Establishment, but it wasn't stable. After experiencing a series of events, it had now stabilized. And the cultivation of the Ancient Spirit Clan was different from other clans; it seemed they didn't need to go through the process of opening magic apertures and life fires. Now, in the absorption of the bone elixir, Xiang Linger's aura was actually approaching the Golden Moon.

Xu Qing also felt this was strange. "Similar to the Poison Forbidden Elixir... The cultivation method of ancient times is different from today." Xu Qing murmured in his heart. The Poison Forbidden Elixir opened from the wish box was like this after it melted into his body, but because Xu Qing was not of the same origin as the Poison Forbidden Elixir back then, he chose to melt it into his Heavenly Palace, using this indirect method as a technique of initial control back then.

But Xiang Linger was different.

With all the silver mist surging into Xiang Linger, the bone elixir disappeared from her hand and appeared in her body, as if it had become an inner elixir.

Instantly, the movement of bloodline erupted on Xiang Linger. Amidst the surging blood and energy, one could faintly see a female war god wearing armor manifesting behind Xiang Linger.

This woman had a tall body, was beautiful and flawless, and her killing intent was exceptionally obvious. She held a long spear, and one could see dragons and snakes circling around her, roaring arrogantly at the sky.

This was the true body of the Ancient Spirit Clan.

This clan was a snake in childhood, turned into a human in adulthood, and after the bloodline was completed, there was a Heavenly Dragon accompanying it. With dragons and snakes protecting the body, the battle body was astonishing.

"Demon!"

Xu Qing's eyes showed strange light. He saw Xiang Linger's cultivation method, which was similar to the cultivation of some fierce beasts, focusing on refining one's own inner elixir to dig into one's own bloodline.

And this breakthrough was of great significance to Xiang Linger, so she couldn't complete it in a short time and needed some days to nourish it. So, Xiang Linger, who was immersed in cultivation, soon turned into a light and landed on Xu Qing's arm, becoming a mark.

Through the mark, Xu Qing could clearly feel Xiang Linger's state. After noticing that everything was going well for her, Xu Qing probed his own Nascent Soul.

"I must raise all the other Nascent Souls, except for the Purple Moon, to the level of attracting the Fifth Tribulation as soon as possible. After experiencing the Fifth Life Tribulation, I will be a complete Nascent Soul."

"And there is the kidney that needs to be sent to Big Brother."

Thinking of this, Xu Qing took out the mirror, stepped into the highest hall of the Reverse Moon Temple, merged into the divine statue, and the moment he opened his eyes, he heard the Captain's call.

"Little Ah-Qing, I felt the kidney!"

"It's with you, right?"

"Little Junior Brother, you must have paid an incomparably painful price for me. This matter, Big Brother will not forget!"

On the gate, the Captain's little totem manifested, revealing an excited face.

Xu Qing looked at him, waved his hand, and a golden kidney flew out, heading straight for the totem. The moment it touched it, the Captain's comfortable voice came from inside soon after.

"I have finally become a complete man again!" "Little Junior Brother, this time all our preparations are complete. All that's left is to push open this door. Don't worry, with you and me working from inside and outside, plus those god-sin bloods, we will soon be able to break it!"

The Captain was high-spirited, his heart full of excitement. Clearly, the return of the kidney had greatly boosted his confidence.

"By the way, Little Junior Brother, what is the identity of that mud fox? Do you have any clues?"

Xu Qing nodded: "She is the Star-Flame Upper God."

The Captain's eyes sharpened.

Xu Qing didn't rush and told the Captain about the matter, including the place he finally went to with the mud fox, and the fact that there was one more mud door there.

The Captain was thoughtful after listening.

"So it's this one. I haven't seen her, but Little Junior Brother, according to your description, this charming Upper God, she should be ill-intentioned."

The Captain licked his lips and spoke in a low voice.

"Little Junior Brother, you have done enough for Big Brother. I can't bear for you to continue. How about this... introduce me to this seductive... cough, to this Upper God later, and I will pay the price!"

The Captain's tone was solemn, with a look of being able to give up anything for his junior brother.

"That Star-Flame Upper God likes original yang, right? I'll do it!"

"In this kind of matter, as your Big Brother, whether out of friendship or morality, I am duty-bound. I will pay the price, I will give my original yang to this Upper God!"

The Captain's tone was filled with grief and indignation, and his expression carried determination.

"Thank you, Big Brother. I have already introduced you, but she thinks you are ugly." Xu Qing was helpless. This was actually one of his original plans. As soon as these words came out, the Captain was stunned and looked at Xu Qing hesitantly. He couldn't tell if Xu Qing's words were a rebuttal after hearing his intention, or if it was truly the case.

But regardless, although adding an Upper God made the future great cause have more variables, it ultimately increased the possibility of success. So the Captain coughed and didn't continue the previous topic.

In the days that followed, besides his daily cultivation, Xu Qing delivered fresh god-child blood, and with the internal and external reinforcement of the Captain, the roaring of the highest hall's gate became more and more shaking.

The Red Mother totem on it also began to burn, visibly blurring.

If this continued, the day of cracking it was clearly not far away.

But for the cultivators of the Reverse Moon Temple, they were already used to the shaking of the highest hall every day and didn't have much mood to pay attention. It was really because during this period, with the approach of the Red Mother star and the closing of the net by the Red Moon Temple, the entire Moon-Sacrifice resistance force was in a precarious situation.

And the drastic change appeared more than ten days later.

The Second Hall Master of the Reverse Moon Temple was killed in battle!

His death was undoubtedly a huge blow to the entire Reverse Moon Temple. That battle was a river of blood, with countless deaths and injuries, causing endless wailing and also making the firm hearts waver.

The Fourth Hall Master, Tiannanzi, who went to support, was also seriously injured and unable to turn the tide, so he could only lead the remnants of both sides to retreat in defeat.

And before the people of the Reverse Moon Temple could recover from this drastic change, an event even greater than the death of the Hall Master sounded like a thunderclap, roaring through the entire Reverse Moon Temple again.

The First Hall Master and the Fifth Hall Master chose to betray the Reverse Moon Temple, join the Red Moon, and become cultivators of the Red Moon.

Moreover, as a certificate of surrender, they used their own authority to close the entrance of the Reverse Moon Temple, making it impossible for all Reverse Moon cultivators to enter the Reverse Moon Temple.

The waves caused by this matter were monstrous. One must know that entering the Reverse Moon Temple was the last barrier for Reverse Moon cultivators. Now that they couldn't use the Reverse Moon Temple to hide, it was equivalent to cutting off the path of survival for the Reverse Moon.

Although the Third Hall Master and the Fourth Hall Master were still holding on, and one was defeated and being hunted but still alive, the First Hall Master's authority was the greatest among them, so for a short time, they couldn't erase the closure of the Reverse Moon Temple.

Most importantly, after this incident, a serious crisis of trust appeared among the cultivators of the Reverse Moon Temple.

It had to be said that the betrayal of the two Hall Masters, whether it was the original preparation of the Red Moon or the desire for survival of the two, made the Reverse Moon Temple fall apart in this instant.

And the root cause of all this, tracing back to the source, was that the highest hall of the Reverse Moon Temple had never been opened for so many years, and there was no true Hall Master, so they were leaderless and a plate of loose sand.

The situation had reached the most desperate moment, and the chaos in the Moon-Sacrifice Domain was the same. The Red Moon star in the distant sky also covered half of the firmament.

No one knew where hope was, or if it would appear.

Everything had entered a countdown.

The great desert, this only pure land, at this time, was like the last lamp in the dark night.

At this moment, outside this lamp, the Fourth Hall Master, whose injuries were becoming more and more serious, was approaching silently with his subordinates and the remnants of the Second Hall Master.

They had nowhere else to go; only the great desert was their only remaining target.

These hundreds of thousands of cultivators were mostly bewildered, their expressions dim. In fact, they didn't care much about death anymore. Numbness gradually spread through their bodies, and exhaustion became a burden on life, unable to be shaken off at all.

But among these cultivators, there was a group of people whose mental outlook was completely different from other cultivators. On them, one couldn't see bewilderment, couldn't see dimness, but was replaced by invigoration and persistence.

It seemed that exhaustion was not their burden, because hope was ignited in their hearts, becoming a flame, burning fiercely.

The number of these people was about a few thousand. They seemed to form a force of their own, gathering together. There were strong and weak cultivation bases among them, and they were incomparably united with each other.

Especially their clothing—although the colors and styles were different, there were unified places.

On their chests, a "Nine" was embroidered, and on their backs, a "Dan" was embroidered.

This group of people were the followers of the mysterious and legendary Master Dan Jiu in the Reverse Moon Temple!

They were led by a woman. This woman's cultivation base was Spirit Hidden. Although she wore a long robe, it couldn't hide her figure. Especially her appearance, although not top-tier beauty, was also a top-notch beauty.

She was not the strongest in cultivation among the crowd, but these followers of Master Dan Jiu spontaneously took her as their leader. Clearly, this woman had a very high status among the followers.

"Everyone, hold on a little longer, we are about to reach the Green Sand Desert!"

"According to the two months I spent listening to the Master's Dao sounds, I can feel the mystery of the Master. The Master uses the Green Sand as a furnace, the sun and moon as fire, takes the rules of heaven and earth as medicinal materials, condenses the white wind, and refines it into an elixir!"

"And the white wind is only available in this Green Sand Desert, so... the Master must be in this great desert!"

The woman's voice was heroic, speaking loudly to the people around her. ===== CHAPTER 628 =====
