Chapter 827: The Last One

The ripples of the firmament were like wrinkles, spreading layer by layer toward the four directions with the mist, lingering for a long time.

Looking from afar, these wrinkles were like fish scales, as if there was a big fish existing between reality and illusion, using the sky as water and the void as a boundary, moving slowly in the void.

Giving people an incomparably shocking feeling.

And in front of this illusory big fish, the cross-legged figure, with long hair fluttering, exuded ancient aura, becoming the focus of this heaven and earth.

Xu Qing's eyes were closed, motionless.

Outside his body, the blurry figure of the half-Ancestral Witch also gradually merged into the firmament. As the big fish swam, it seemed to be moving away.

The earth was silent, and the hearts of all the cultivators here were churning violently, filled with infinite horror.

They witnessed this battle with their own eyes and witnessed the fall of Ji Dongzi, the second sequence of the Yan Yue Profound Heaven Clan!

A sense of trembling spread throughout their bodies uncontrollably.

From the moment Xu Qing appeared, Ghost Chariots knelt and worshipped, and the rainforest automatically dispersed. They knew Xu Qing's strength, but no matter what, the Ji Dongzi in their inherent impression was also a strong person.

But in this battle with Xu Qing, Ji Dongzi, from beginning to end, all his means had no effect in front of Xu Qing.

He had always been suppressed, and even gave people an illusion that Ji Dongzi seemed to have become weaker than before.

But illusion was illusion after all.

Ji Dongzi was not half a bit weaker. The reason why people had this feeling was that his opponent was too strong!

And just Ji Dongzi's failure, although it made everyone horrified, the impact on their hearts was still limited; it was impossible to be like now, making their hearts in incomparably shocking state.

What truly shocked them was the thin gray mist around Xu Qing that was dissipating, and the blurry figure behind him that was about to disperse!

This was the source of the monstrous waves in their hearts.

Because they recognized the gray mist as coming from the Nine Li.

As for that figure, they didn't recognize it, but the induction in their bloodlines revealed an indescribable intimacy, as if... the source.

The moment this feeling became rich, Xu Qing, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes.

The moment he opened them, the Witch mark on his brow flashed suddenly, and the ancient feeling of the half-Ancestral Witch figure behind him became even stronger.

The sense of worship from the bloodlines, souls, and instincts of all people made all the cultivators here tremble.

Fan Shishuang was like this, and Tianmozi was also like this.

Those Ghost Chariots that were already prostrating emitted wails like crying.

The sound echoed, spreading to all directions, making heaven and earth filled with indescribable mourning, rendering everyone's emotions, making them look at that figure, and a thick sorrow rose in their hearts.

That was a kind of crying intent from the soul and bloodline.

Under this intent, the cultivators on the ground, some directly knelt down and worshipped Xu Qing in the firmament and the figure behind him.

Tianmozi was the same, and others followed suit.

Finally, it was Fan Shishuang. Even he, under the throbbing in his heart that he couldn't control, lowered his head, worshipped, and was in awe.

Even more, in front of Xu Qing, those three ancient Ghost Chariots exuding God-Treasury fluctuations also manifested. Without the previous scrutiny, they lowered their heads even deeper toward Xu Qing.

Xu Qing looked at all this, and he finally knew why the legend of the Nine Li circulated that those who possessed the Nine Li would be worshipped by all clans of the Yan Yue Profound Heaven.

Because that was the source of the bloodline.

"Pity, only half fused."

Xu Qing murmured in his heart, sensing his fifth Witch Treasury.

There, the land cast by his flesh and blood was now buried with ninety-five God-Treasury monuments, covered by flesh and blood, filled with gray mist, and was being corroded.

And in the mid-air of this Witch Treasury, on those nine mountains, the original empty void now had a behemoth.

It was exactly that half-Ancestral Witch figure.

It floated cross-legged, exuding a vast aura that shook heaven and earth, and it clearly possessed life, actually breathing.

Every breath would make this Witch Treasury appear to shrink, and even more, golden smoke would emanate from the ninety-five God-Treasury monuments buried in the flesh-and-blood land, heading straight for the firmament and being swallowed by it.

They were like nutrients, providing all the needs for fusion to this Witch Treasury at all times.

Subsequently, as the Ancestral Witch figure breathed, the Witch Treasury would vibrate violently, showing signs of expanding outward.

All this seemed to have become a cycle.

The fifth Witch Treasury, with the arrival of those God-Treasury monuments and the appearance of the Ancestral Witch figure, seemed to have come alive!

Xu Qing's gaze gazed at everything, finally falling on that half-Ancestral Witch figure, and anticipation rose in his heart.

After a long while, he withdrew his gaze and stood up amidst the worship of heaven and earth and the four directions.

The moment he stood up, a fluctuation spread from the distance, and bursts of teleportation intent also rose with the spread of the fluctuation. This fluctuation and teleportation came from the entire Mountain-Sea Domain.

That was a sign that the second stage was about to end.

Xu Qing's expression moved. After thinking for a while, he went away toward the horizon.

Until his figure completely disappeared in the distance, the earth rainforest recovered, and the Ghost Chariots no longer wailed and returned to it.

As for those cultivators, they all rushed out with pale faces, their hearts churning with ripples, carrying complexity, carrying shock, and did not stay here, leaving one after another.

They had to seize the time to obtain mounts.

Because the fluctuation from the Mountain-Sea Domain just now made them understand that the second stage of this Yan Yue Profound Heaven Great Hunt was nearing its end.

The last to leave were Tianmozi and Fan Shishuang.

The two looked at each other. Tianmozi raised his chin, put on a calm posture, and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Finally, only Fan Shishuang stood in mid-air alone.

"Nine Li... appears in the world..."

"Since ancient times, it has never happened..."

After a long while, Fan Shishuang took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and turned to leave.

Time passed slowly like this. When there were two days left until the end of the second stage, Xu Qing's figure appeared in a strange place.

This place was called Shanchi Dense Forest.

It was also the place Xu Qing and the Captain had agreed upon.

Standing in mid-air here, Xu Qing's gaze fell on the dense forest in front.

Here, he felt the Captain's aura, but he didn't notice his figure. Even with jade slip sound transmission, there was no response.

"There are traces of fighting..."

Xu Qing thought thoughtfully and walked into the dense forest. As he walked, all the vegetation in front of him bent down and took the initiative to disperse into a path.

Xu Qing's expression was as usual, walking all the way, until after a while, his footsteps paused, and he looked at a tree beside him.

That tree exuded cold air and had traces of being affected by coldness.

"Senior Brother's cold air."

Xu Qing walked over, gazed for a while, and simply raised his hand and pressed it on it. The Nine Li aura in his body erupted outward, accompanied by his spiritual sense, covering all directions.

"Open your memories."

The next instant, the memories of all the vegetation in this Shanchi dense forest transformed into threads, woven together, forming webs of memories. After intersecting and overlapping, pictures appeared in Xu Qing's mind.

In the picture, he saw the Captain's galloping figure and the person chasing from behind.

He also saw the two of them fighting in this Shanchi dense forest, as well as some of their respective means.

Until finally, the Captain went away and left this Shanchi dense forest, and the cultivator chasing him, with a fierce and persistent aura, chased after him.

Xu Qing opened his eyes, calm in his heart.

He didn't worry about the Captain.

Although he had identified the person chasing him as the great genius of the first sequence of Yan Yue, Yan Xuanzi.

But...

"Senior Brother has been entangled with this person here for so long and still hasn't been killed, it seems he can't die."

"And looking at Yan Xuanzi's expression of hatred toward Senior Brother, he must have suffered a big loss."

Xu Qing pondered, calculated the time, and knew that the time for this stage to end was coming.

Especially in these few days, he could sense that the array of this entire Mountain-Sea Domain showed signs of opening, and fluctuations spread from time to time.

"At most two days."

Xu Qing murmured.

According to his understanding of this second stage before coming, he understood that once the teleportation opened, all participants here would be instantly teleported outside the God Mountain.

"The Captain has a way to be teleported in together, so he must have a way to be teleported out together, so after a few days, he will go out."

Xu Qing was relieved.

However, considering the friendship with the Captain, Xu Qing felt that he could also look for him in these two days.

So he walked and walked, went to mid-air, and searched all the way forward.

During this period, once the Captain's aura traces disappeared, he spread his spiritual sense, sensed the memories of the rainforest with the Nine Li aura, found a new direction, and continued to walk.

But unfortunately, the remaining time was limited after all. Xu Qing searched for traces for two days, but still couldn't find him.

And in these two days, the teleportation fluctuations from the Mountain-Sea Domain also became more frequent. Once, Xu Qing even saw Yan Yue cultivators galloping in the distance, their bodies disappearing instantly and being teleported away.

"It started."

Xu Qing paused his footsteps, sensed this Mountain-Sea Domain, found a mountain peak, sat cross-legged on it, and waited for the arrival of teleportation.

As time passed bit by bit, the sound of booming echoed in the heaven and earth of this Mountain-Sea Domain, the sound deafening like the roar of a god, spreading in all directions.

The ripples of teleportation also spread invisibly in the Mountain-Sea Domain, like waves sweeping heaven and earth.

And the first to be teleported away were those who didn't obtain mounts, followed by teleportation according to the strength of the mounts obtained.

Thus, if one could stand at a high point overlooking the entire Mountain-Sea Domain, one could see that under the waves of teleportation, one figure after another of cultivators flashed with teleportation light and disappeared one after another, except for one, who remained despite how the teleportation waves swept!

And as the participants of the entire Mountain-Sea Domain continuously dissipated, this figure still wasn't affected in the slightest.

Until several hours passed, in the entire Mountain-Sea Domain, only this one person remained who hadn't been teleported away.

Xu Qing frowned and looked at the sky.

Heaven and earth boomed. Because only he was still there in the massive Mountain-Sea Domain, all the teleportation fluctuations erupted in the area where he was. Even in the firmament, due to the continuous gathering of these teleportation fluctuations, a huge vortex like a black hole was formed.

Rumbling and rotating.

But no matter how it pulled, that kind of teleportation intent never formed on Xu Qing, so he couldn't be teleported out.

This phenomenon surprised Xu Qing a bit.

"Since I can't be teleported, then I'll just walk in myself!"

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, stood up from his cross-legged position, and took a step toward the vortex in the firmament!

Originally, I planned to ask for leave today, but thinking that I could persist if I could, I finally finished this chapter. My body is a bit feverish, so I'm going to rest. ===== CHAPTER 828 =====
