Outside Yinghuangzhou, the black forbidden sea has undulating waves, and the thick heterogeneity turns into a cold and cold atmosphere, corroding all the people on the sea. Even if the midday sun shines hot, it cannot melt the heterogeneity. Sui
It doesn't even illuminate the mysterious depths of the sea.
This is why, for countless years, there have been many legends about the Forbidden Sea, especially stories about divine creatures.
Only the wealthy families or high-level monks at sea know that although those divine creatures are powerful, they are not invincible.
And the gods in this world are not the only one with a broken face, so... the most terrifying thing in the depths of the Forbidden Sea is not the divine creature, but the sleeping god.
Gods can sleep on the sun and moon, inhabit immortal palaces, and exist in ominous places. Therefore, this forbidden sea surrounding the ancient continent is naturally the choice for gods to hibernate.
Especially...the Forbidden Sea is too big.
Just the sea area between Yinghuangzhou and Nanhuangzhou is extremely vast, let alone the area outside Nanhuangzhou.
In fact, even the sea area where Nanhuang Continent is located can only be regarded as offshore compared with the entire forbidden sea.
The former name of the Forbidden Sea was called the Endless Sea, which already revealed its scope.
It seems to be a world of its own, confronting the continent and the sky.
At this moment, outside Yinghuangzhou, the waves were rolling, and above the sky, a large black ship was roaring forward.
This is Qi Ye's big wing, which Qing is allowed to use in Fenghai County.
As for the big wing, there is no need to control it personally. As long as the power source is sufficient and the authority is granted, anyone can control it in a short time.
Traveling with Xu Qing were a thousand sword-bearers from the county capital and Taoist people from Sinan, as well as Qingqin, who was soaring in the higher sky.
Under the squawking sound, the birds in the sky did not dare to rise to a comfortable height. They could only choose to fly low, and sometimes rush into the sea to catch their prey and return quickly.
It is precisely because of this that many plesiosaurs are attracted. They often burst out of the water in an instant, bite low-flying birds, and then fall into the sea with a roar, causing even bigger waves.
Xu Qing stood on the balcony of the big wing, his eyes fell on the sea, watching the big waves caused by a plesiosaur, he thought of the scene when he went to sea for the first time.
After a long time, Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and looked at the fish bone thorn in his hand.
Under the sunlight, this black thorn seems to have become a black hole. While absorbing the light, the fluctuations emitted from it are even more astonishing.
Many sword holders outside the tower had solemn expressions after sensing it. Only Xu Qing, because of his physical body, felt a sense of coercion when holding it in his hand, but it had more of a homologous meaning.
At this moment, staring at the Thorn of Doom, Xu Qing had thoughts in his eyes. After a while, he suddenly spoke.
"Youlingzi."
In an instant, the black iron stick flew out from Xu Qing's storage bag and floated in front of Xu Qing. While trembling, the figure of the King Kong Sect ancestor was revealed on it, paying his respects to Xu Qing.
"My lord!"
The ancestor of the King Kong Sect was extremely nervous and anxious at this moment. He had an extremely strong sense of impending disaster, his voice was trembling, and his heart was full of despair.
He always felt that if he didn't work hard, he would be killed by Xu Qing. This idea came from his character and was deeply rooted, so every time Xu Qing's cultivation improved, he was actually frightened.
But today, the appearance of the fishbone let him know that what was supposed to come was finally coming.
Although I tried my best, I still couldn't keep up with Xu Qing's footsteps.
It's not that he didn't work hard, it was just that the other party was moving too fast.
"Lord, I have made preparations. In all the story books I have read in my life, all the protagonists in them have advanced rapidly, and it is difficult for ordinary people to accompany them throughout their lives."
"This further proves that, Lord, you are just like the protagonist of the story."
"But I understand that I can't hold you back. I don't ask for anything else. I just ask the Lord to give you a happy life because of your hard work over the past few years."
"If there is an afterlife, I will definitely follow my Lord again, ride the horse for you, and watch you reach the top of heaven and earth."
The ancestor of the King Kong Sect had a face full of sadness. Even at this time, he still looked at Xu Qing with a look of loyalty. This was the only chance he thought he had to save himself...
He knew that he knew too many secrets, and if he were Xu Qing, he would also have murderous intentions, so he tried hard to impress Xu Qing and make Xu Qing put away his murderous thoughts in view of the hard work.
If you can be soft-hearted and let yourself go on impulse, then it will be completely perfect.
Xu Qing gave the King Kong Sect ancestor a meaningful look.
He did not feel the loyalty of the other party, but he saw the actual actions of the ancestor of the Vajra Sect over the years, which helped him a lot.
The grudges of the past can also be resolved.
After all, iron sticks are no longer enough to support one's own cultivation. Even if they have been sacrificed once, compared with fish bones, the level gap is not small.
So today, Xu Qing originally planned to unlock the seal for the other party, let him go, and understand the cause and effect. As for the secret, he had other means to guard against it.
But the words of the King Kong Sect ancestor made Xu Qing think about it for a while, then he took back what he was about to say, with a deep thought in his eyes. He thought that he might be able to give the other party a chance. Su Qing
While the ancestor of the King Kong Sect was nervous, he also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He felt that his words had an effect. The evil star in front of him was finally moved by him. The deep groan in his eyes at this moment was the evidence. The other party was weighing whether his hard work could be deducted from his death.
"It's too difficult. I just want to be free and live. Why is it so difficult?"
When the ancestor of the King Kong Sect became more and more sad and angry, Xu Qing's eyes flashed with determination, and when he raised his right hand to make a hand gesture, a flame suddenly rose up, covering the iron sign in an instant.
Burn the iron sticks to refine them.
The ancestor of the King Kong Sect was shocked.
"Lord, I..." Sui
"I'll give you a chance, please bear with it." Xu Qing spoke in a low voice and made a hand seal with his hands. Suddenly, the twelve Nascent Souls opened their eyes at the same time and spit out life fire.
Five more life lamps were revealed, blessing the flame.
In an instant, under the wailing of the ancestor of the Vajra Sect, the iron sticks fused together by his two thunder tribulations began to melt and gradually turned into molten iron.
This molten iron is actually the essence of the ancestor of the Vajra Sect.
The screams of the ancestor of the King Kong Sect became more and more pitiful. The frightened little shadow kept twisting and trembling, and quickly tried to please Ling'er who was watching all this.
In this way, as time passed, the wailing of the ancestor of the Vajra Sect became weaker and weaker, until when it was almost inaudible, the iron sign completely melted into red molten iron.
Xu Qing made a finger with both hands, and suddenly the red molten iron turned into threads, running straight towards the fish bones, not blending into them, but flowing into the lines of the fish bones. Suddenly
At the same time, Xu Qing mobilized the divine energy in his body, and his body emitted fluctuations, blessing him during this filling.
Finally, when the temperature of the molten iron dropped and solidified, it was completely embedded in the fish bones.
The appearance of the fish bones has changed drastically.
With a black base and red lines, a stronger murderous atmosphere circulates inside.
The ancestor of the King Kong Sect, as a weapon spirit, was also indirectly half-fused into the fish bone through this method.
Compared with fish bones, its existence is too different, so it is impossible to become the weapon spirit of the Thorn of Doom through normal methods. Only by using this method of inlaying the coat can it indirectly control the Thorn of Doom.
Although it is impossible to be flexible, with the help of Xu Qing, he can kill enemies on his own, which is much better than before without the weapon spirit. Sui
And being infected by the divine fish spine all the time, the state of the ancestor of the Vajra Sect will also gradually change.
In this way, maybe one day, the ancestor of the King Kong Sect can transform and become a divine weapon spirit.
It's just that in this process, the pain is much more intense than before. After all, this kind of transformation is equivalent to slowly being reborn. The torture is difficult to describe.
And it also needs to be immortal in the future and not be swallowed up...
All this made the ancestor of the King Kong Sect a little dazed. After feeling all this, he felt a sense of joy in his heart. Although the process was painful, and it was hard to say whether he would live or die in the future, at least he had survived today's disaster.
"Fortunately, I'm smart, otherwise I would have failed today!"
The ancestor of the King Kong Sect sighed with joy in his heart. Just as he was about to speak, Xu Qing's eyes showed encouragement and he spoke. Suddenly
"You Lingzi, originally I planned to give you freedom, but since you want to follow me forever, I will help you this time."
"ah?"
The ancestor of the King Kong Sect opened his eyes wide when he heard this, and then his heart felt huge, and his body trembled violently, but in the next moment, he suddenly reacted.
"This is a test of me. It's blowing me up. That's right. It's a test of my loyalty. It's too cunning."
Thinking of this, the ancestor of the Vajra Sect spoke loudly.
"Lord, since I, You Lingzi, have followed you, I have already understood a truth: freedom is more important than freedom!"
"The happiness I have had in these years is unprecedented in my life. I don't want to lose that sense of freedom. If I can't follow you, I will be in great pain. Even thinking about it now, I feel heartbroken."
"Lord, I don't want freedom, I just want to follow you, because I long for freedom more than freedom."
The words of the ancestor of the Vajra Sect moved Ling'er. She looked at the ancestor of the Vajra Sect and whispered to Xu Qing.
"Brother Xu Qing, this old man is a good man."
Xu Qingmu had a deep meaning but did not explain it. After a few words of encouragement, he put away the fish bones and then lowered his head to look at the shadow under his feet.
The shadow was so frightened that it started to tremble, and its emotions fluctuated rapidly.
The shadow was really scared. It had seen the explosion of the purple crystal before, and it couldn't escape even with the fingers of the god. So it had long been desperate and just wanted to live well. Sui
So at this moment of tension, I said everything I could express.
Xu Qing pondered. He had an idea in his heart that might speed up Shadow's breakthrough. He couldn't do it before, but now he is sure of it.
So Xu Qing stopped looking at the shadow, sat down cross-legged, and began to meditate.
He now has thirteen heavenly palaces, twelve of which have formed Nascent Souls and experienced a heavenly tribulation.
Only in the Heavenly Palace transformed by the Nether Spirit Blood Wing Lamp finally obtained, no Nascent Soul has appeared yet, but with the help of other Nascent Souls, a siphon has been formed, so that the Nascent Soul of this fifth lamp is also rapidly taking shape. middle.
"Soon."
Xu Qing murmured in his heart, closed his eyes and practiced.
Time passed, and seven days later, Da Yi traveled across the ocean and finally arrived at Nanhuang Continent. From a distance, Xu Qing saw the Seven-Blooded Boy who had lived with him for many years.
Compared with when we left, this place has not changed much. It is still prosperous and lively. When people come and go, you can see many boats of Seventh Peak disciples coming in and out of the port.
The seven peaks in the distance were brought to welcome Huangzhou, but now they have been reshaped. Everything is as usual, except that there are no bloody eyes on the top of the mountain.
The arrival of Da Yi aroused the emotions of everyone in the Seven Blood Boys. When countless people raised their heads and looked in the distance, Xu Qing failed to send a message to the second senior sister.
When he left the Eight Sects Alliance before, Master Qi saw him off and mentioned that the Second Senior Sister was in retreat to achieve a breakthrough.
Therefore, Xu Qing did not stop at the Seven-Blooded Boy. With his wings roaring, he left this place and headed quickly towards the east of Nanhuang Continent.
For Xu Qing, Nanhuang Continent was so big that he had to teleport anywhere he wanted to go. But after experiencing so many things, Xu Qing looked at Nanhuang Continent again and understood why the Seventh Master said that Nanhuang Continent was a big place. Huangzhou is an island.
Compared with Wanggu Continent, Nanhuangzhou is indeed just an island.
With the speed of Da Yi, Xu Qing arrived at the original scavenger camp in only half a day.
This place is still so dirty and messy, and Xu Qing is no longer familiar with many of the scavengers inside.
Those scavengers who wander between life and death, unless they are very lucky, will often spend a few years in a lifetime.
Xu Qing lowered his head at high altitude and stared at all this. After a while, he walked alone and stepped into the familiar but unfamiliar scavenger camp.
Walking inside, Xu Qing passed by scavengers and civil buildings. The fluctuations on his body were naturally hidden, making him forgotten in the eyes of ordinary people.
This is the ability of Ding Yi San Duo Ying. Shui
For monks, it will be more difficult to be forgotten by the influence, but in the scavenger camp, the ability to forget can erase everything.
Xu Qing walked silently, with a clear goal.
Not his former residence, but the blood-stained small street.
There is a grocery store there.
The shop is still there, but the owner is no longer the same as before.
At this moment, opposite the shop, under the eaves, a man in black robes was sitting.
The robe covered his thin body, and his face could not be seen clearly. All he could see was a huge evil sickle being carried on his shoulders. Sui
It is youth.
Around it, there were several corpses of scavengers that no one dared to take away. They were obviously people who didn't open their eyes to provoke. After all, not everyone in this world has normal thinking.
It is precisely because of Qingqiu's existence that this small street is very quiet, and all the shop owners are trembling and dare not speak.
And she has obviously been here for some time, maybe to investigate some clues, or maybe because she can't believe what she saw in the county capital.
So, here she is, waiting silently.
Maybe even she herself doesn't know what she is waiting for.
Until today, the sound of footsteps could be heard in this empty street.
Xu Qing walked towards Qingqiu step by step until he reached her side.
Qingqiu looked forward, without turning his head. He just tightened his grip on the evil scythe slightly, then slowly loosened it, without saying a word.
Xu Qing followed her gaze and looked at the grocery store.
Vaguely, he seemed to see a dirty little girl with scars on her face busy in the shop.
Seven years.
Seven years ago, they met in this scavenger. They were both people who had experienced the deformation of the gods and finally survived.
Seven years later, they returned again. Suddenly
Xu Qing didn't speak, and Qingqiu was also silent, but her shoulders began to tremble.
After a while, Xu Qing took out a ball of oil paper and placed it on the ground in front of Qingqiu.
"Once here, someone gave me a piece of candy. She told me that when I was sad, eating it would make me a lot happier."
Xu Qing spoke softly.
"I can roughly guess what's going on in your heart, but I want to tell you that I ate that piece of candy back then, which relieved the sadness in my heart, and this piece of candy was bought for you from the Seven Blood Boys. "
There was reminiscence in Xu Qing's voice. After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, taking more than ten steps. Xu Qing paused in his steps, did not look back, and spoke in a solemn tone.
"Also, remember to write back to the commander to report."
"Yes!" Qingqiu answered instinctively. After she finished speaking, she realized what she was doing. She immediately lowered her head and gripped the sickle tightly.
Xu Qing raised the corners of her mouth, said nothing, and walked away.
Until he left, the wind came out, lifting the dead leaves on the ground and shaking the oil paper. It also fell on Qingqiu's body, shaking her mind.
After she saw Xu Qing's Nascent Soul at the altar of the capital, she felt an unprecedented wave of emotions in her heart.
The sudden scene made her a little unable to accept it.
She couldn't believe that the source of her efforts to become stronger, the person she had longed to find in Nanhuang Continent, actually existed beside her in the past two years.
And she is so excellent and powerful that she, who is unwilling to admit that she is inferior, has to admit this fact. Sui
This made her a little confused, and there was endless complexity in her heart, because all her efforts and hard training were all to one day protect that very important figure in her life.
Just like when the other party stood in front of you and replaced the bamboo slips to protect yourself.
This is her pursuit and dream.
But now, the person she wanted to protect didn't need her to do anything at all.
Even these days when she recalled the past of the county, she had actually been silently protected since the Shiguang Tree.
So, she came here, with a complicated heart, while slowly sorting out all this, she also had some expectations, whether she would meet her brother here.
She met.Suddenly
"hateful!"
Qingqiu gritted his teeth, thinking of his instinctive response before, so he angrily raised his hand to reach for the oil paper in front of him, but when he touched it, he became extremely gentle, treating it like a treasure, and took the oil paper ball in his hand.
Open it slightly, revealing a shiny piece of rock candy inside.
She didn't eat, but looked at it, with a smile on her lips under the mask.
Evil Ghost Scythe looked at all this and spoke excitedly.
"Aqiu, you must seize it. This is a good opportunity given by heaven. From now on, you must listen to Master Xu Qing and do whatever he asks you to do. Don't refuse."
"In this case... we will have the opportunity to die with the powerful Guixu in the future, or even... die with the gods. It is not impossible!" Sue
"Oh God, if we can die together with the gods in this life, that will be our supreme glory!
"
Evil Ghost Scythe was extremely excited, his body trembled, and his eyes glowed red.
This time Qingqiu did not shout shut up, but was thoughtful.
At the same time, Xu Qing, who had left the scavenger camp, was walking in the restricted area, heading towards Team Lei's grave.
Ling'er didn't speak this time. She wanted to say something, but she felt that Xu Qing was a little depressed after entering the restricted area, so she obediently pressed Xu Qing's cheek.
But deep down in her heart, she whispered.
"Is that little sister Xu Qing's childhood friend? She had great mood swings at first, but when she saw that piece of candy, she got better immediately." Sui
"Candy is so useful? Then I'll buy some when I go back."
"Then if brother Xu Qing is unhappy one day, I will give it to him."
Ling'er thought so in her heart, and when she felt that she had learned useful knowledge, Xu Qing came to Lei Dui's tomb.
There are more weeds here.
The tombstone remains the same.
Xu Qing sat silently, leaning against the big tree, looking at the tombstone.
It was already dusk now, and there was some thin mist around, which was gradually getting thicker. Suddenly
Xu Qing didn't pay attention to this. He took out two bottles of wine, placed one in front of the tomb, and held the other in his hand, raising it high.
"Team Lei, I did something big a few days ago..."
Xu Qing smiled and spoke while drinking.
He talked about the county capital, the sword bearer, the war, and the palace lord.
"Elder brother said that I have grown up, yes, it has been seven years... Captain Lei, you told me before that time can mold everything, so you have been waiting for so long and don't want to wait anymore."
"But why sometimes when I close my eyes, I still want to eat the food you cooked..."
Xu Qing murmured that he could not forget at all that after Wushuang City disappeared, he wandered in the world and tasted the warmth of the first person he met who brought him home through hardships. Sui.
Xu Qing lowered his head and drank one drink after another.
Until dusk passed and darkness fell, the fog became thicker and thicker all around, submerging everything. Xu Qing's murmur came from within the fog.
"Team Lei, I miss you..."
After a long time, Xu Qing sighed softly in the mist, kowtowed to the tomb, then stood up, left there, and walked step by step towards the depths of the restricted area.
He obtained the shadow here, so he wanted to bring the shadow back here to let it absorb the foreignness of this restricted area to see if it could help the shadow's breakthrough.
The shadow also fluctuated after Xu Qing entered the penalty area.
And as Xu Qing went deeper at this moment, the fluctuations became clearer and clearer. While exuding desire, it also spread to all directions under Xu Qing's feet. Suddenly
Wherever they passed, the trees began to sway and gradually turned into coffins, covered with eyes.
And the fog here suddenly became thicker as the shadow dispersed, and it exuded waves of greed, as if there were malicious eyes falling on Xu Qing and the shadow deep in the fog.
What followed was a series of rustling sounds, as if countless beings were whispering, floating in the mist in this silent restricted area.
Xu Qing glanced at the fog, with a cold look in his eyes, but he still walked forward until Xu Qing passed the temple complex and entered the depths of the restricted area. The fog here was extremely thick and kept spreading. In the middle, he vaguely heard singing.
This was the second time he heard singing in the restricted area.
There is a legend in this forbidden area. If the person who hears the singing does not die, he will receive a gift from the forbidden area and can see the person he wants to see when he hears the singing for the second time.
At this moment, as the song floats, the surroundings become colder, and the cold breath comes from all directions. Suddenly
Xu Qing paused. He raised his head and looked into the mist in the distance. There... came the sound of footsteps.
