For the Ancient Spirit Emperor, although he was still hungry from time to time over the years, his appetite had unknowingly become a little picky.
Back then, when he saw any divinity, his eyes would widen. The hunger in his heart was enough to overwhelm everything, and he would swallow it in one gulp without any hesitation and without any picky eating behavior.
Regardless of whether others think it tastes good or not, He feels it is supremely delicious.
So the food looks ugly.
But now... He actually looks down upon this puppet from the bottom of his heart.
After all, His last meal was made of the flesh and blood of His mother.
Compared to the red mother's flesh and blood, this puppet is no different from mosquito meat.
So regarding Xu Qing, Emperor Gu Ling's heart was very complicated. Even though he was scolding him not to come again, he was also roaring in his heart.
However, if Xu Qing really didn't come, he would still be a little reluctant to leave.
These complicated thoughts made the Ancient Spirit Emperor even more annoyed. When he spoke at this moment, the entire Ancient Spirit World was roaring. Under his control, a huge vortex appeared out of thin air above Xu Qing and the others, and a huge sound came out.
The power of absorption affects the world.
Lao Jiu didn't care about this kind of driven hospitality. He took thirteen pieces of imperial energy and walked toward the vortex without saying a word.
Er Niu also didn't care about this kind of rejection. He was used to it... At this moment, he licked his lips, his eyes flashed with a faint light, and he flew into the whirlpool.
As for Xu Qing, he was naturally polite, so before leaving, he bowed to the Ancient Spirit Emperor.
"Then, I will not disturb His Majesty's seclusion. I wish His Majesty a smooth future and an early release from seclusion."
No matter how much sincerity this sentence contained, listening to Xu Qing say it at this moment, although Gu Linghuang was irritated in his heart, he had to admit that Xu Qing was very polite to him from beginning to end.
Compared to the brash old man Lao Jiu who drew his sword as soon as they met, there is also the idiot with a sly look on his face that makes people worry about whether he has lost his wallet just by looking at him.
Xu Qing's respect is very obvious.
"Your Majesty, the previous token has lost its effect, and the younger generation may encounter better sacrifices next. If it cannot be sent back in time due to the token..."
Xu Qing looked at the Ancient Spirit Emperor. He didn't want to give up so easily with the useful combat power in front of him.
The Ancient Spirit Emperor was silent, and after a while he snorted coldly. In an instant, the suction force of the vortex above Xu Qing suddenly increased sharply, and the repulsive power from this world increased even more.
Seeing this, although Xu Qing felt regretful in his heart, he did not force it, and his body swayed straight into the whirlpool.
And just when his figure submerged into the whirlpool and was about to disappear, a token came out of nothingness and flew into the whirlpool. The next moment, the whirlpool roared and disappeared into the ancient spirit world.
The entire ancient spirit world suddenly became peaceful.
The Ancient Spirit Emperor finally sent the token.
The giant eyes slowly closed.
However, he did not notice that in the ancient spirit world, among the countless bones in the mud of the earth, there was a small skeleton, with a fleeting blue light in its eyes at this moment.
There is a blue worm hidden inside the skeleton's bones.
The worm exudes a wordless power of concealment, covering all its aura.
This is naturally a legacy of Erniu.
In the days to come, this little skeleton will search and explore bit by bit in this world of death to find the treasure that the main body smells...
Time passed, and half a day later, the Wood Spirit Tribe was outside the earth, above the sky.
Grandpa Jiu left, taking Linger with him.
After integrating all thirteen imperial energies into Ling'er's body, the curse of Ling'er's bloodline was finally completely suppressed, and there would be no more problems in a short period of time.
His cultivation level also improved smoothly and he began to transition to Lingzang.
Due to the special physique of the Ancient Spirit Tribe, there is no bottleneck in improving cultivation at this stage, but they do need to sleep.
Today's Wanggu is full of smoke, and the Moon Festival area is safer in comparison.
After all, most of the Wanggu powerful clan knew about Li Zihua's imminent return, and even the Holy Land did not come to the Moon Sacrifice Territory.
Therefore, it is naturally the best choice for Ling'er to return to the Moon Festival for retreat.
Originally, Xu Qing was also considering whether to return to the Moon Festival Territory.
But an imperial edict from the Human Emperor from the Imperial Capital of the Human Race changed Xu Qing's thoughts.
"Summon the Crown Prince and Tutor Xu Qing back to the human royal capital; the army of Haijun will be conquered, and they will come in three batches."
Whether it was due to the past in the human race or the empress's actions after her disappearance, in the face of the arrival of the Holy Land, the Eastern Yu Yanyue and the human royal capital, small-scale battles broke out frequently.
Xu Qing had no reason to refuse the call.
So, after watching Grandpa Jiu's figure gradually disappear, Xu Qing looked at his senior brother beside him.
Erniu didn't care about Lao Jiu's departure, nor did he care about the empress' decree. At this moment, all his attention was on his worm left in the ancient spirit world.
After a while, Erniu's eyes lit up.
"I can sense it, haha."
Erniu is excited.
Xu Qing knew with just one glance that the senior brother must have some arrangements in the ancient spirit emperor's world, so he gave a reminder.
"Elder brother, I have been to the realm of death of the Ancient Spirit Emperor many times."
Erniu looked at Xu Qing.
"I didn't feel much before, but this time... maybe it's the difference in cultivation, or maybe it's the difference in my physical body, I feel something strange."
Xu Qing thought for a while and spoke in a low voice.
"It seems that the ancient spirit world I went to this time is not the same place as the one I went to before!"
"Even when I recall the previous times, it seems like it was like this every time."
"I suspect that there may not be only one ancient spirit world!"
"That giant snake may not be the only one."
"Also, in the thick fog of Lingyuan, my divine knowledge detected an ancient breath and gaze, with deep malice."
Xu Qing rarely spoke so much. He was really worried that his senior brother's madness would go astray without knowing accurate information.
In that case, it is not madness, but seeking death.
When the two cows heard the words, they were thoughtful.
"This is logical. If I were the Ancient Spiritual Emperor, I wouldn't really have only one world. I would have to prepare many, and the true and false would be confused in it."
"Well, the worm I left there will be more careful."
"But little Ah Qing, there is indeed a treasure there. Although I don't know what it is specifically, I feel... that treasure will definitely be of great use to you and me!"
"I want to explore it..."
Erniu licked his lips instinctively.
Xu Qing nodded. He knew that although his senior brother was crazy, he was not stupid, so he said no more and looked in the direction of Fenghai County.
Going to the human royal capital, relying on the speed of the pagoda is naturally not as fast as teleportation. After all, the journey during this period spans many large areas.
In addition, Xu Qing has one more matter to deal with in Fenghai County before heading to the human capital.
So he did not stay here any longer with the Wood Spirit Tribe. After bidding farewell to the Wood Spirit Tribe, he took the Holy Sky Pagoda and went straight to Fenghai County.
Xu Qing's return was a first-class event for Fenghai County, so there were naturally many meetings and greetings between old friends.
Such as Yao Hou, such as Qingqin, such as the old friend of Zhijian Palace, and Yao Yunhui...
Moreover, opening the cross-domain teleportation array requires time to prepare and check the details. After all, Xu Qing's teleportation does not allow any surprises for Fenghai County.
So he and Erniu needed to stay in Fenghai County for one night.
That night, representatives from all parties in Fenghai County reported their duties to Xu Qing in the first half of the night. In the second half of the night, as everyone left, Xu Qing also left the county.
Appeared in the former Prison Department.
Walking here, Xu Qing seems to have walked through the years. Scenes of his past as a jailer here emerge before his eyes, and the one who appears the most here is the old palace master Kong Liangxiu.
Finally, as he walked all the way, Xu Qing reached the bottom of the Prison Department, which is the ruins of the palace of the ancient Emperor Xuanyou, and it was also the place where the fish bone god lived before his death.
This place is now completely controlled by Fenghai County, and some areas have been renovated, such as the palace on the edge.
Some areas have been explored, such as the palace where the magic is located. The magic inside is now an important heritage of Fenghai County.
Some areas have been turned into forbidden areas, such as the Phoenix Hall.
Xu Qing's destination is exactly this palace.
Step by step, he walked to the Fengniao Hall and looked up at this once mysterious place.
When he was here, he lost a memory.
Later, I finally found out that this hall was the place where the daughter of the ancient Emperor Xuanyou died, and it was also where the blue lantern on Zixuan was stored.
It's even more...the place where Zixuan now accepts the inheritance.
Standing outside the hall, the first thing Xu Qing felt was the aura of the ancestor of the Vajra Sect.
Almost instantly, the iron sign where the ancestor of the King Kong Sect was located flew out of the bricks in the hall, transformed into the figure of You Lingzi, and knelt down directly to Xu Qing.
"Meet the master!"
The ancestor of the Vajra Sect looked excited.
The shadow under Xu Qing's body also rippled, and it transformed into eyes, looking at his lifelong enemy in front of him.
"What's wrong with Zi Xuan?"
Xu Qing spoke calmly.
"After returning to the master and mistress, I entered the main hall and never came out. During this period, I guarded this place and did not allow anyone to approach."
"Besides, the mistress said before entering the hall, if you are the master, don't force her to enter this hall. Give her some time. No matter what difficulties she has, she can solve them by herself. After success, she will go to find you."
The ancestor of the King Kong Sect spoke quickly.
When Xu Qing heard this, his eyes fell on the main hall. His divine knowledge could not spread here, and he could only slightly sense that the fluctuations within it were in a stable state.
So he withdrew his consciousness and sat silently outside the main hall, closing his eyes and meditating cross-legged.
The night passed.
That night, the ancestor of the King Kong Sect was solemn and Xiaoying was alert. Both of them were thinking about each other and thinking of various ways to target each other in the future.
However, when they occasionally stared at each other, their expressions were different. Xiao Ying was full of hostility, while the King Kong Sect ancestor was smiling.
Until the dark night melted in the sky of Fenghai County, Chu Yang raised his head, Xu Qing opened his eyes, looked at Fengniao Hall again, and then turned around and left.
Half an hour later, under the respectful greetings of representatives from all parties in Fenghai County, the Fenghai County formation roared into action, and the figures of Xu Qing and Er Niu were blurred within the formation.
