Chapter 781

~11 min read 2,108 words

The Bai Ze clan does not rank high among the subordinate tribes of the Yanyue Xuantian, and it is even harder to compare them to the Si'e clan.

Tribes like the Bai Ze are all too common within the Yanyue Xuantian.

"Generally speaking, tribes like the Bai Ze all share a common trait. Toward outsiders, they act extremely fierce, but toward the Yanyue clan itself and higher-level subordinates, they are servile and have no bottom line."

The Captain's voice echoed in all directions amidst the shimmering brilliance of the heaven and earth.

"Therefore, since they dare not snatch from other participants in the Great Hunt, they naturally assumed you were a fat sheep when they saw you."

As the Captain spoke with a laugh, blue light erupted, and a chill that seemed capable of freezing the void instantly shrouded the surrounding thousand miles.

Within a thousand miles, it was as if midwinter had descended; the earth and mountain peaks turned into ice mountains in an instant, the vegetation instantly transformed into ice sculptures, and even the clouds and mist in the sky gained weight and plummeted to the ground.

Not to mention the Bai Ze cultivators in between.

"However, there is a type of beast in the forbidden zones that also looks like a sheep on the outside, but the locals call them demons."

The Captain raised his hand and pressed it toward the Bai Ze cultivator.

Xu Qing took it, put it in his mouth, and took a bite; it was very sweet.

As the Captain spoke, he reached out and grabbed; instantly, the last Bai Ze cultivator who had been frozen and fallen to the ground had their unconscious body land in his hand.

"Little Ah Qing, the Bai Ze clan is still just as delicious. Besides, I learned two interesting pieces of information from the other party's memory."

Xu Qing glanced at the apple in the Captain's hand and said nothing.

Just like that, as Xu Qing's poison prohibition spread and churned, the void in the distance twisted, and a white eye the size of a fist had no choice but to reveal itself.

Xu Qing nodded upon hearing this, raised his right hand, and waved it; instantly, the Forbidden Mountain belonging to that Bai Ze stall owner flew over and landed on top of his own head.

At the same time, on another battlefield here, the Captain's body exploded with a bang amidst a ferocious laugh, transforming into countless blue lights. Inside each blue light existed a blue worm, which wrapped around and moved toward that Void Returning First Stage Bai Ze cultivator from all directions.

As they plummeted to the ground, strands of soul silk shot out from Xu Qing's body, caught up in an instant, and drilled inside to devour the Bai Ze cultivator's soul.

For him, based on his childhood experiences, he had basically eaten everything except the flesh of his own kind.

The surroundings were empty, without any fluctuations. If it were someone else, they might not be able to find it instantly, but for Xu Qing, this was not difficult.

His eyes turned pitch black in an instant, and the poison prohibition suddenly spread, rapidly extending in all directions; wherever it passed, the heaven and earth were all poisoned.

"Since you have the qualifications for the Great Hunt, then this time, we'll go and do it, damn it! That way, we can enter the Divine Domain with a more reasonable identity to complete my great undertaking. Besides... who knows, we might even manage to become a Xuantian General!"

The Captain raised his hand and threw one over.

Cultivation base suppression, Heavenly Dao suppression, aura suppression—everything was being suppressed.

Meanwhile, the Captain on the side had his figure transform at this moment, looking at Xu Qing with a chuckle while picking up a green apple and taking a bite.

Xu Qing's gaze swept over, seeing that the Captain's combat power was stronger than when he faced that Yanyue cultivator before. Clearly, on this journey, the Captain's competitive heart had led to no small harvest in secret.

This eye revealed shock, and even more, decisiveness.

As those soul silks merged, the wailing inside the meatball the Captain had transformed into disappeared. As it squirmed, the Captain's figure condensed, and while licking his lips, he looked at Xu Qing.

No matter how this person struggled or counterattacked, it was to no avail. In the blink of an eye, this Void Returning Bai Ze was surrounded by countless blue worms, becoming a huge blue meatball.

But it was already too late.

Soon, the corpse withered, and the soul contained within was crazily absorbed by Xu Qing's soul silk, transforming into more soul silk, which then flew out.

But at this moment, he didn't have time to consider too much. His full Spirit Treasury Great Perfection cultivation base was released, his five secret treasuries erupted with monstrous fire, and even in this crisis, he instinctively burned his own vitality.

This scene caused the two of them to tremble inwardly. While their hearts skipped a beat, the main culprit of this time, that Bai Ze stall owner, also had his expression change instantly, and his body violently retreated.

That Void Returning First Stage cultivator and the Spirit Treasury Great Perfection cultivator beside him each had their expressions change. The former was fine; the Void Returning First Stage cultivation base gave him his own Dao regarding rules and laws.

But he still didn't expect to be discovered so quickly, so he unfolded a teleportation without hesitation. As the fluctuations spread, the eyeball became blurry again in an instant, intending to teleport away.

Seeing that Xu Qing was the same as him, the Captain became happy, wrapped his arm around Xu Qing's shoulder, and spoke in a low voice.

He had already noticed that the number of returning soul silks was not quite right; a portion was missing.

Xu Qing's gaze was calm. He raised his right hand and waved it, and the soul silk within his body erupted, rapidly arranging and combining in front of him, forming a huge sundial in the blink of an eye.

"According to the news I just received, if we set off quickly now, we should be able to make it in time."

The next instant, the power of the sundial dissipated. The eyeball contracted in shock, wanting to teleport again and wanting to hide, but it was no longer possible. Xu Qing's figure had already appeared in front of it.

"We need at least a hundred, right?"

Fresh blood erupted. There was no scream, only a wheezing sound of exhaling; the corpse... was separated.

Xu Qing smiled, raised his right hand, and caught the soul silk that returned after devouring the Bai Ze stall owner.

He slashed fiercely.

But the Spirit Treasury Great Perfection cultivator beside him was clearly inferior. No matter how his five secret treasuries surged, it was difficult to shake the freezing. Under this change of heaven, his body could not control itself and plummeted along with the clouds and mist.

"Senior Brother, you said to become number one, how many Forbidden Mountains do we need?"

Xu Qing behind him had his Daoist robe fluttering and his long hair dancing. The right hand he raised was as white as jade, without any worldly aura.

"The most useless one is this one."

With a bang, the eyeball collapsed.

Xu Qing's gaze looked toward where the eyeball teleported. Time reversed, the mist flowed backward, the teleportation fluctuations changed from spreading outward to being restrained, and the blurry eyeball inside also changed from blurry to clear.

"Little Ah Qing, the way you look, one can tell at a glance you're not a good person."

Looking from afar, at this moment, Xu Qing had countless crimson soul silks squirming outside his body. The fluttering formed by their drilling made Xu Qing look like a demon.

"In the five forbidden zones of this Yanyue noble's territory, there is one place that possesses more than twenty Forbidden Mountains."

This aura invaded all directions, also causing the Bai Ze cultivator's mind to roar. The intent of death turned into a tide, drowning him. He wanted to dodge, but his body seemed to have lost the ability to move.

He couldn't shake off Xu Qing at all.

With this, he exchanged for the power of blessing and went far away in an instant.

Looking closely, this meatball was composed of worms. While shocking to the eye, there were also chewing sounds and shrill wailing sounds coming from inside this meatball.

"Remember, if we succeed in the end and you really become a Xuantian General, lend me the clothes to wear for a few years."

As for the corpse, it turned into fly ash.

He wanted to stimulate his five Heavenly Daos, but they were in their embryonic form and were trembling.

The Captain patted his chest, his eyes glowing.

Almost the moment this Bai Ze stall owner rushed out, Xu Qing's figure appeared behind him. No matter how fast this Bai Ze clan cultivator's speed was, it was useless.

Therefore, silk threads surrounded his body, forming a furnace, which suddenly erupted.

"Poisoning again? I can't waste the one in my hand; it's a very good ingredient."

"Little Ah Qing, Senior Brother will help you with all his might!"

Xu Qing looked up at the two mountains above his head and suddenly spoke.

He was rolled up by a sleeve, his body turned into blue light, and he merged into the void.

The Captain's eyes widened.

The Captain pinched a seal and pointed. As the blue light on his body shimmered, the body of this last Bai Ze clan cultivator actually changed rapidly, eventually turning into hundreds of green apples, which scattered.

He felt a life-and-death crisis and also saw the sudden drastic change in the situation. The gap between this and what he had thought before was too large.

Xu Qing nodded.

He had been too close before and was afraid of being interrupted if he teleported. He had intended to hide and wait for Xu Qing and the others to leave, while also moving quietly just in case.

Combined with the Captain's words, it was clear that the Bai Ze stall owner had other life-saving means. He appeared dead, but in reality, it was a fake death to hide.

The eyeball was crimson and emitted a soul sound, but it had no effect. Under absolute dominance, its resistance was meaningless.

Thus, what filled his heart was only terror, until the next breath, when Xu Qing's hand passed by the neck of this Bai Ze cultivator from the front, and the dagger he held landed on the other party's neck.

Two Forbidden Mountains circled each other, with strands of red lightning crisscrossing between them, like drawn silk.

"The first piece of information is that the one you chose is a genius among the Bai Ze and is extremely good at hiding. And the one I killed, while seemingly stronger than him, is actually just having stepped into Void Returning, and his Dao hasn't formed many strands yet. In his memory, the two of them once fought, and he was the one who was defeated by a sneak attack."

The shock in his expression was the same.

"There is one more piece of news."

But the black dagger wrapped in burial cloth held in his hand emitted an extremely rich aura of death.

Just like when we were young...

As the sundial needle moved, the law of time descended upon the heaven and earth at this moment.

From time to time, there was lightning touching, forming sparks that illuminated all directions, visible from very far away.

He wanted to resist, but the deterrence from the human cultivator behind him turned into suppression, and his five secret realms were all collapsing.

The sundial turned into soul silk and drilled in instantly. Upon returning, it brought more soul silk, which merged into Xu Qing's body one by one.

"A noble of the Yanyue Xuantian clan, to celebrate the Great Hunt, is willing to open the forbidden zones within their own territory to provide for all cultivators participating in the Great Hunt."

He raised his right hand and patted casually.

The Captain said casually.

"Then a hundred."

Cold light rose in Xu Qing's eyes. His body flickered, and he whistled away into the distance. The Captain blinked and followed with a smile. Soon, the figures of the two disappeared into the sky.

They headed toward the forbidden zone opened by the Yanyue Xuantian noble to celebrate the Great Hunt.
