Chapter 824: Making a Comeback
At this moment, there were over a hundred cultivators in this dispersed Ghost Chariot place. Each of them had their own means; some relied on cultivation techniques, some relied on external objects.
And they were also the best among their peers, which was why they could stand out from the crowd, hide in this place until now, and wait for the opportunity to obtain a Ghost Chariot cub.
If Xu Qing hadn't appeared, their casualties would have been difficult, and someone would definitely have succeeded in obtaining one.
Now... Xu Qing's arrival caused all the Ghost Chariots they longed for to fly out. With a wave of his hand, it was as if the curtains in a dark room were suddenly pulled open, causing everyone's hiding to be completely exposed.
Even this description wasn't very appropriate. To be precise, it was that with a wave of Xu Qing's hand, not only were the curtains pulled open, but the house itself dismantled and grew legs, each moving far away.
The horror brought by this scene made all the Yan Yue cultivators here have thunder rolling in their hearts, shocked incomparably.
The sudden transparency, the transition from dark to light in an instant, made them all breathe rapidly.
And the shock in Ji Dongzi's place was the strongest. After he discovered that the source of the Mountain-Sea change was the Nine Li, he already had some speculations about Xu Qing in his heart.
He had also thought that Xu Qing didn't die, and had also thought that perhaps they would meet again in the future, but he had never expected that the two sides would meet again in such an unbelievable way.
Looking at the hundred-plus Ghost Chariots prostrating in the distance as if seeing a monarch, and looking at the three terrifying and ancient big Ghost Chariot figures in the firmament, Ji Dongzi's body trembled rarely.
A strong sense of crisis erupted in his heart. Fan Shishuang, who was separated from him by a thousand feet, was the same. He was originally confronting Ji Dongzi, but after witnessing all this with his own eyes, his heart was stirred by monstrous waves.
For a time, everyone was shocked by this scene and dared not act rashly.
Only Xu Qing, standing outside this piece of dispersed dense forest, did not put his gaze on Ji Dongzi in the distance at the first moment, but raised his head and looked at the God-Treasury Ghost Chariot in the firmament.
Unlike all the fierce beasts he had encountered along the way, they did not wail, nor did they prostrate, but gazed at him from the firmament.
Within it vaguely contained a hint of doubt and scrutiny.
"The fierce beasts of the Mountain-Sea Domain, perhaps after reaching God-Treasury... will awaken some hidden memories in their bloodlines." Xu Qing thought thoughtfully. Only this answer could explain the gaze of these three God-Treasury Ghost Chariots.
This gaze also made Xu Qing understand the limit of his Nine Li aura.
"Unless I can display the Ancestral Witch form of the True King, otherwise, I cannot drive God-Treasury fierce beasts." Xu Qing pondered in his heart, withdrew his gaze, and swept over the cultivators who were revealed from the dense forest, then toward Ji Dongzi.
They were separated by a long distance, which for mortals would be invisible to each other.
But as cultivators, and with combat power and cultivation reaching this level, as long as the distance was not too far, with the instinctive blessing of spiritual sense fusion, they could perceive and gaze at each other.
In this gaze, as the sense of crisis surged in Ji Dongzi's heart again, Xu Qing raised his footsteps and took a step forward.
This step fell, and his body emitted the sound of heavenly thunder. A large amount of red soul threads erupted from his body, circling the surroundings to form a blood-colored storm, and fused rapidly, forming the god-spirit state. It was directly the fourth layer, the Mother Red form, also called the Purple Lord!...
A hundred feet tall, with purple flesh and feathers all over his body, and two huge wings behind his back. Bursts of murmurs emanated from his body, echoing in all directions.
Behind him was a Purple Moon slowly rising, on which countless figures were worshipping.
In front of him were two huge sundials, the pointers rotating, forming the power of time, distorting the void, and blurring everything.
Under his body was a huge lotus platform. Each lotus leaf represented one of Xu Qing's abilities. They formed purple tentacles spreading in all directions, like a purple spider lily, shocking.
The intent of the god-spirit descended on heaven and earth, causing many cultivators' souls to shake, and even those Ghost Chariot beasts had some restlessness. The three God-Treasury ones at the top of the firmament also exuded pressure.
But Xu Qing didn't care, and with this terrifying god-spirit state, he took the second step.
The next instant, nine flesh-and-blood lanterns flew out from his body instantly, circling the surroundings, forming the Nine Li nine heads on them, with monstrous momentum, roaring while also rushing toward Xu Qing rapidly.
In an instant, they fused with Xu Qing's god-spirit state, transforming into that Witch armor containing the aura of ancient vicissitudes.
Nine Li nine heads manifested simultaneously, blessing Xu Qing's combat power in an all-around earth-shaking way. The moment the mask transformed by Yazi was worn on Xu Qing's face, heaven and earth changed color, and the wind and clouds surged!
Displayed in this world was an existence that had never appeared in history.
Like a god and a witch, appearing on one person at the same time, a powerful aura that was hard to describe erupted from Xu Qing's body.
The Ghost Chariots on the ground prostrated and trembled; the three Ghost Chariots in the firmament actually lowered their heads silently. The vegetation in the rainforest in all directions bent down simultaneously, and the red lightning in the firmament also exploded. Those Yan Yue cultivators couldn't bear it, spat out blood, and had to retreat, their hearts already filled with fear and horror.
Even Fan Shishuang and Ji Dongzi had thunder exploding in their minds.
There was no need to make a move; they could clearly perceive Xu Qing's strength at this moment.
Tianmozi in the distance breathed rapidly. He, like everyone else, was seeing Xu Qing's form for the first time, and the bloodline induction made a sense of worship rise in his heart uncontrollably.
Just when everyone was shocked by Xu Qing, Xu Qing in the God-Witch state took the third step, crossed the distance, and appeared a thousand feet in front of Ji Dongzi.
The moment he appeared, the earth boomed, the firmament wanted to crack, and the violent aura and the peerless killing intent emitted made purple snowflakes fall in this world.
Fan Shishuang retreated fiercely. From Xu Qing's gaze and the news he heard outside about Xu Qing being killed by Ji Dongzi, he immediately judged that the other party came here this time for Ji Dongzi and had nothing to do with him.
And while he retreated, a boom also came from Ji Dongzi's body. He moved as well.
His hands pinched seals rapidly, and his body retreated with big steps. The combat power of Void Returning Great Perfection rose from his body.
As the second sequence great genius of the Yan Yue Profound Heaven Clan, even if the Xu Qing at this moment brought him great pressure, he did not surrender without fighting.
Moreover, he knew very well that since Xu Qing found this place, this battle must be a life-and-death situation.
So in an instant, the firmament where his body appeared cracks boomed and shattered. A huge finger fell from within, approaching Xu Qing instantly.
This finger had magnificent momentum, as if it had the power to destroy heaven and earth, and contained Ji Dongzi's full combat power as well as countless rules, laws, and his Dao marks.
Distorting the void, with the momentum of a landslide, it headed straight for Xu Qing.
Xu Qing's expression was as usual. Facing this incoming finger, he raised his right hand and pressed it lightly. With a boom, he actually stopped that huge finger in front of him.
He even lifted it upward, and the sound of cracking surpassed the thunder and echoed.
This terrifying finger was actually twisted from the middle and was broken by Xu Qing alive!
The next instant, the second, third, fourth, and fifth fingers occupied the firmament and came successively.
This move, Ji Dongzi had once displayed to Xu Qing back then. At that time, Xu Qing spent a great price and unfolded all his divine abilities to barely deal with them one by one, but he was also seriously injured and had to display "Moon Fishing in the Well".
But now it was different. The same divine ability, different handling, Xu Qing took the fourth step.
Following the successive sounds of cracking, the incoming four fingers couldn't block Xu Qing's figure in the slightest.
All were broken by him raising his hand in front of him.
Facing this scene, Ji Dongzi's expression was heavy. While retreating, he pinched a seal again. Instantly, behind these five twisted fingers, the firmament darkened, and a huge palm covered the sky and slapped toward Xu Qing.
Xu Qing raised his head, looking at that vast palm, and gray mist appeared in his eyes.
This mist became thicker and thicker. In the blink of an eye, it rose from his body and formed an impact, heading straight for the palm.
Amidst the boom, the two sides collided. The palm couldn't fall and retreated in this impact. The next instant, the mist condensed rapidly, transforming into a gray nail, directly piercing the palm, driving it, and falling toward the earth.
The ground vibrated violently. This huge palm was nailed to the ground by the nail formed by the gray mist. No matter how Ji Dongzi cast spells, it was difficult for this palm to struggle out.
Xu Qing withdrew his gaze, looked at Ji Dongzi whose expression changed, and without saying a word, took the fifth step.
When he appeared, he was already a hundred feet in front of Ji Dongzi.
Ji Dongzi breathed rapidly, his whole body instantly turned crimson, and shadows of blood flew out from his body, circling the surroundings, forming a blood lake. Moreover, the blood shadows within continuously collapsed, causing the range of the blood lake to continuously skyrocket, whistling toward Xu Qing.
He himself rose into the sky rapidly, his expression twisted between heaven and earth, killing intent strong in his eyes, and he raised both hands and scattered them fiercely.
Immediately, more blood and blood shadows erupted from his body. In an instant, a vast blood sea appeared around him, with an astonishing range, invisible to the edge, covering the firmament, making heaven and earth become blood-colored.
"Suppress!"
In the center of the blood sea, Ji Dongzi, whose figure was almost invisible, let out a low roar, lowered his hands, and immediately the piece of terrifying blood sea around him also went to suppress the earth.
Back then, it was under this move that Xu Qing was defeated because it exceeded the limit of his blood authority, and even though he finally escaped, he was seriously injured.
At this moment, seeing Xu Qing raise his head to gaze at the firmament, the falling red sea, he raised his right hand and grabbed the red sea from the air.
Cultivation emerged throughout his body at this moment, the God Source spread in all directions at this instant, and the Nine Li nine heads broke away from his body and roared at heaven and earth.
Xu Qing's blood authority, under this extreme blessing, immediately exceeded the limit of the past and was pushed to a higher level. The blood sea that covered the sky and blocked the sun churned instantly and actually formed a huge vortex. The source of this vortex was exactly Xu Qing's raised palm!
The rolling blood sea continuously rotated, continuously gathering toward Xu Qing's palm, and it became smaller and smaller.
Looking from afar, this scene was shocking, making all the watching cultivators have thunder in their hearts again.
Until finally, in everyone's sight, that vast sea of blood that had no end in the firmament actually transformed into a rotating blood hole in Xu Qing's palm.
It emitted dazzling red light, rendering heaven and earth, and looking at it gave a sense of the soul being stung, as if one could hear countless wails.
What was even more frightening was that it rotated within, revealing instability, as if it could explode at any time, forming a catastrophe!
This scene made thunder explode in Ji Dongzi's mind, his body trembling, and the horror in his heart could no longer be hidden. When it was revealed from his eyes, Xu Qing's index finger flicked on this terrifying blood ball.
In an instant, this blood ball carried the momentum of exterminating everything and rushed out fiercely. Wherever it passed, the void drew corrosive blood marks, like the wounds of the firmament, heading straight for Ji Dongzi! ===== CHAPTER 825 =====
