Chapter 786: Life and Death Gate

~12 min read 2,322 words

Xu Qing's cold voice echoed between the heaven and earth of the forbidden zone. Wherever it passed, it was as if a wind of death had blown through the human world, and like the light of a nether lamp, summoning living souls.

Furthermore, on him gathered a momentum that could overturn mountains and seas. Sitting cross-legged on the Ninth Mountain, countless crimson soul silks spread out behind him, the bright red intent like blood, like a demon.

The ghost faces formed by the seven ghost lamps on his body spread out of his body, wandering and circling in the surroundings, eerie and sinister.

Combined with his handsome face and fluttering long hair, at this moment, Xu Qing was peerless in the world.

That intent of swallowing mountains and rivers caused the firmament to change color and the great wind to whistle.

This scene fell into Tian You Lingzi's eyes, and his heart couldn't help but churn. Thunder seemed to be falling in his mind, his expression changed suddenly, and an extreme sense of life-and-death crisis, which had never appeared before, surged in his body like a tide.

Like a mountain collapse, it directly caused his heart to collapse. It seemed that every piece of flesh and blood, every inch of bone in his whole body, was transmitting a sharp soul whistle to him at this moment.

Danger, danger, danger!

All perceptions, all consciousness, were transmitting a sense of danger at this moment, finally gathering together to form a bigger wave.

The smoke rings of the incense burner outside his body also had waves, appearing distorted.

This feeling caused Tian You Lingzi's breathing to quicken. His forward figure paused violently, instinctively wanting to retreat, wanting to stay away from this eerie human in front of him.

But it was too late.

Xu Qing looked coldly at Tian You Lingzi, raised his hand and let it fall. The poison prohibition mist filling this Ninth Mountain rose sharply, forming a vortex, roaring in all directions.

The black poison mist storm dispersed with ravaging and terror, covering the sky and blocking the sun, forming a giant magic face, opening its eerie mouth, and pressing fiercely toward the incense burner on Tian You Lingzi's head.

Amidst the roaring, the incense burner trembled, and the smoke rings falling like a waterfall became even more distorted.

And this suppression did not end. The invasion of the poison mist became even more ferocious, descending again, and rotating to block all of Tian You Lingzi's retreat paths.

At the same time, the seven lamps flashing in Xu Qing's body swayed, reflecting Tian You Lingzi's figure, and then... one lamp went out.

The moment this lamp went out, Tian You Lingzi's pupils contracted, his heart surged with huge waves, and his internal organs suddenly felt sharp pain, as if an invisible sharp dagger had pierced through, rampaging in his body.

A shrill scream came from his mouth.

After spitting out seven or eight mouthfuls of blood in succession, he still couldn't resolve it. In terror, his body staggered, all temperament vanished, and the whole person looked no longer like he was covered in gorgeous clothes, but like an ant, covered in filth for no reason, being suppressed toward the earth.

His body also showed signs of aging in an instant, and his life fire dimmed as if covered in dust.

"You..." Tian You Lingzi's heart churned violently, and Xu Qing extinguished the second lamp.

The moment the lamp went out, a more miserable wail came from Tian You Lingzi's mouth. His body appeared with strands of shattering marks, intersecting densely, as if he were to be sliced by a thousand knives. Large amounts of blood overflowed from those shattering marks, dyeing his scales red and also dyeing his whole body's robe.

His hair withered one by one, and his scales were the same, falling off on their own and becoming fly ash.

As for his cultivation base, it was even more like being deprived, his aura constantly dropping.

A sense of certain death strongly emerged in Tian You Lingzi's heart. Fortunately, the incense burner power was still there, defending him, barely isolating this sense of certain death.

But he was still panicked. The endless terror and the shroud of the sense of death made him feel like a lonely boat on a raging wave. At this moment, he retreated violently, going all out, not hesitating to burn his own vitality, just to leave this terrifying Ninth Mountain.

Xu Qing didn't raise his hand to stop him, because... the other party couldn't escape.

He looked coldly at the figure of this Bai Ze clan heaven's pride, watching the incense burner swaying above his head, while the third, fourth, and fifth lamps in his body... went out one after another.

Every time a lamp went out, the retreating Tian You Lingzi would emit another shrill sound, and both his flesh and soul were withering.

In the blink of an eye, six of the seven lamps went out.

Furthermore, millions of soul silks whistled from behind Xu Qing, heading straight for the incense burner.

Finally, with a crack, the incense burner appeared with a crack. Under the mutual empowerment of the poison prohibition, Xu Qing's Seven-Lamp Ghost Fire Curse, and the soul silk, this treasure finally couldn't last, becoming dim.

The smoke rings falling down also paused, missing one ring.

The poison prohibition took the opportunity to drill in.

The next instant, Tian You Lingzi's retreating figure trembled violently and fell directly from the sky, crashing onto the ground.

Here, it was the foot of the Ninth Mountain.

Lying there, his whole body was covered in sweat like rain, and this sweat contained corrosion, melting half of his body.

Not only did his body and soul suffer the heavy blow of the lamp going out, but the poison prohibition power also spread in his body, corroding flesh and blood, shattering his heart and mind, causing black energy to spread all over his body.

The indescribable pain caused Tian You Lingzi to lose the strength to roar.

The sense of death rose all over his body, accompanied by a stench, extremely dense. In his heart, all kinds of emotions such as hesitation, anxiety, and terror drowned everything.

It seemed that heaven and earth had lost their vitality in his eyes, and his life fire only had a small flame left.

He had thought that one day, he would die, but in his imagination, that was after he became Spirit Refinement, dying in the Bai Ze clan's conquest against the outside.

And the moment he died, he would definitely leave a thick stroke in the tribe, letting future generations know that there was once a strong man in their tribe named Tian You Lingzi.

Therefore, today's scene was something he hadn't expected at all. Thus, unwillingness and madness began to rise in this life flame of his, trying to reverse it.

And Xu Qing extinguished this hope, extinguished the last lamp in his body, and closed his eyes.

With the disappearance of the lamp fire, as if a wind had blown, the last life fire of Tian You Lingzi was blown out.

All unwillingness became an echo.

All madness returned to peace.

The lamp went out, and the person also died.

The remains left at the foot of the mountain also turned into fly ash in the influx of soul silk, scattering in the wind and falling onto other mountain peaks...

All around, once again a piece of silence.

Different from the previous silence, now it was... a deathly silence where breathing stopped.

Countless gazes full of horror and dullness seemed to have lost the ability to move, falling on the Ninth Mountain, falling on Xu Qing who had been sitting cross-legged from beginning to end.

"Tian You Lingzi... is dead?"

"Bai Ze clan heaven's pride..."

"This person, who exactly is this person? When did the human race appear with such a heaven's pride!"

After a while, a clamor rose suddenly, waves spreading in all directions.

"The magical power he used before, I seem to have seen it in an ancient book..."

"That is the method of a Sovereign, it needs Sovereign bloodline to be unfolded!"

"Seven-Lamp Ghost Fire Curse!"

"One of the Sovereigns of the peak period of the human race, Li Li Zihua, his bloodline Dao!"

As one of the super tribes of the Wang Gu Continent, the overall knowledge of the Yan Yue Profound Heaven clan far exceeded other tribes. Even if what Xu Qing unfolded was an ancient method, it was still found to be the source by someone.

And in this uncontrollable gasping and shock filling this place, on the Ninth Mountain, Qiu Quezi's heart was also churning.

Looking at Xu Qing, his gaze was one of complete submission.

He didn't know how many more means this human in front of him had, and how strong his true strength was.

The things that happened on this day gave him even an illusion, as if... the other party's mystery was like a black hole that could swallow everything.

The Captain was also surprised, looking at Xu Qing several times. This Seven-Lamp Ghost Fire Curse was the first time he had seen it in Xu Qing's hands; he hadn't seen Xu Qing use it before.

"This kid has learned to hide. No, I have to work harder!"

Even in the golden palace in mid-air, the Yan Yue noble was moved, his gaze falling on Xu Qing, thoughtful.

"Some time ago, something big happened in the Festival Moon Great Domain where Li Li Zihua's statue is located. A few humans slaughtered a god..."

And amidst everyone's shock, Forbidden Mountains that had shrunk one after another fell slowly from mid-air, and finally, all floated above Xu Qing's head.

Together with his twenty-seven, a total of one hundred and thirty-nine Forbidden Mountains.

Circling and rotating with lightning connecting between them, the pressure and momentum formed could give people monstrous shock.

It didn't end. Xu Qing's gaze fell on the twenty-seven Forbidden Mountains on the ground. With a grab of his hand, the earth roared, and these twenty-seven Forbidden Mountains flew over rapidly. In the end, twenty-six joined them, making Xu Qing's Forbidden Mountains break through three hundred.

For the remaining one, Xu Qing glanced at Qiu Quezi.

"Given to you."

Qiu Quezi felt gratitude rise in his heart. If it were normal times, he naturally wouldn't be excited because of one Forbidden Mountain, but now it was different...

After doing these things, Xu Qing's heart moved, and Ding Ding Yisaner trembled, blurring rapidly, and finally dissipated in the heaven and earth, making everything covered here appear outside.

At the same time, the departure of Ding Ding Yisaner did not take away the fresh blood here. Thus, the blood of those hundreds of people scattered in all directions, also spreading the thick bloody scent.

Standing in the forbidden zone mid-air, Xu Qing, shrouded in the bloody scent, looked up at the golden palace higher up and bowed.

In the golden palace, the Yan Yue noble looked at Xu Qing, the appreciation in his expression even stronger than before.

"My forbidden zone has appeared such a disaster star. In the subsequent Hunt Banquet, there will be something to talk about."

The Yan Yue noble smiled slightly and transmitted his words.

"Human kid, I can tell you a piece of news. Currently... there are still dozens of people with more Forbidden Mountains than you."

"Looking at your approach, your goal should be the first place in the first stage, so you need to continue to work hard."

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed, he nodded, and bowed again.

"Thank you, Senior, for your guidance."

In the golden palace, laughter came out. The next moment, the entire palace became a bit blurry, and finally disappeared into the firmament. The excitement had been watched, and this Yan Yue noble chose to leave.

Xu Qing watched him off, until the palace completely dissipated, before he withdrew his gaze. Just as he was about to leave with the Captain, at this moment, he and the Captain looked into the distance at the same time.

There, a long rainbow was rushing into the forbidden zone at an extremely fast speed, speeding all the way, rushing toward them aggressively.

It looked very arrogant.

And he indeed had the capital to be arrogant. Looking from afar, one could see eight Forbidden Mountains on top of this cultivator's head, which were shrinking rapidly.

The person who came was exactly the main body of the Yan Yue Profound Heaven clan cultivator who appeared when Xu Qing was moving the first Forbidden Mountain. His clone was killed by Xu Qing and the teleportation failed, so the details of the death were not transmitted back.

And this cultivator's confidence also made him whistle over here after sensing the general direction, and by relying on the mysterious traction formed by the slaughter of his own clone, he found this place.

Qiu Quezi also saw it. If it were any other time, he would definitely be solemn, but now... Qiu Quezi shook his head.

Almost the moment Qiu Quezi shook his head, the figure in the distance that was like a rainbow and contained endless dominance and arrogance seemed to have sensed something and paused violently in mid-air.

Then, the long rainbow shook a bit, as if this cultivator was trembling violently, and even the mist in the surroundings was drawn by him, as if he was controlling his breathing with great effort.

Clearly... he had entered the forbidden zone arrogantly, but at that moment, he sensed that all the Forbidden Mountains here had disappeared, and also felt the thick bloody scent in this place.

Then noticing the three hundred-plus Forbidden Mountains on top of Xu Qing's head...

As long as one is not a fool, one knows what happened here.

"Killed everyone?"

"This... this..."
