Chapter 1226: Little Qing, What Are You Doing?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Little Qing, what are you waiting for? When we just entered the forbidden zone, I sensed the mark of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race. Someone should have designated it as a private property.”
The captain endured the itchiness and swelling on his body and looked at Xu Qing.
“Hurry up. Let me tell you, Little Qing, this feeling is very comfortable. The more intense it is, the more perfect the effect of body enhancement.”
“I suffered a loss in the first segment of the Flame Moon Hunt back then. Do you know why it’s called the Sky Collapsing? It is because in the range of 50,000 kilometers of the Divine Mountain, the sky will collapse, suppressing everyone regardless of their cultivation base.”
“This is one of the reasons. Also, in this round, there will be all kinds of indescribable intense pain from the inside out. In short, all kinds of pain will appear on your body, making it difficult for you to take a single step forward.”
“At that time, I was too skinny and my body wasn’t prepared. It was so painful that 1 almost fainted. However, 1 saw some powerful physiques and giant cultivators. They had a considerable advantage in this round.”
“Therefore, later on, 1 began to think of a way. I finally found this forbidden zone back then. If you can resist the toxins of these mutated mosquitoes, they can strengthen your body for a short period of time.”
“Moreover, it will gradually make people lose their sense of pain. It’s very suitable for the first segment. It’s a pity that I died tragically in that life and didn’t have a chance.”
“Believe me, Little Qing.”
As the captain spoke, he circulated his cultivation base in all sorts of ways. In the end, the mosquitoes outside his body fell to the ground in batches and died. Clearly, they had been poisoned to death by him.
However, the captain was very persistent and wasn’t satisfied with his current state. Hence, he attracted another large group of mosquitoes…
Seeing this, Xu Qing recalled the Grand Hunt segments that the clay fox had told him. Compared to the captain’s words, Xu Qing felt that… the clay fox might be more reliable.
Xu Qing felt that the captain might have been too immersed in his experience back then and didn’t know that the rules had been changed. After all, the human race was far away from the Flame Moon Headquarters and the information about the Grand Hunt wasn’t easily available.
If he wanted to know in advance, unless he investigated the whole race, it would pose a certain difficulty.
Hence, Xu Qing was about to tell the captain about the information he had obtained from the clay fox. However, just as he was about to speak, the captain raised his hand and threw out a pill bottle to Xu Qing.
“Little Qing, don’t say that Eldest Senior Brother doesn’t love you. This is my love. If you open it, you’ll be able to attract mosquitoes like me.”
“And, the anomalous fragrance in this bottle is specially prepared for you. It attracts female mosquitoes for me and male mosquitoes for you, hehe.”
The captain’s entire body was swollen and he winked at Xu Qing, looking mischievous. However, his eyelids were also swollen. After winking, he couldn’t open them anymore…
Xu Qing glanced at the pill bottle and then at the captain. He picked up the pill bottle and kept it well, swallowing the words he was about to say.
Instead, he turned and walked toward the red forbidden mountain. At the foot of the mountain, he lifted his head and looked at the mountain peak. He took a deep breath and raised his right hand, pressing it against the mountain rock.
All of his cultivation base instantly erupted, forming a terrifying aura that enveloped the mountain peak, causing the Forbidden Mountain to tremble and rumbling sounds to echo.
The mosquitoes on it were all frightened and flew up in large groups, covering the sky in a black mass, causing the already gloomy forbidden zone to become even darker.
The buzzing sound also rose in an instant, shocking everyone.
When the captain saw this scene, he noticed that Xu Qing didn’t attract the mosquitoes. He couldn’t help but feel surprised.
“Eh, what are you doing?”
Xu Qing didn’t speak. At that moment, as his cultivation base circulated, the 2 million soul threads in his body rapidly became active and rushed out of his.
From afar, these soul threads seemed to connect to the sky, attracting countless lightning bolts. In the end, they transformed into a vortex that coiled around the mountain, forming a huge force.
It was like a huge palm that came from nothingness, grabbing the mountain peak and pulling it fiercely.
He wanted to lift it from the ground.
The ground quaked, the forbidden zone rumbled, and the mountain trembled.
The captain wanted to open his eyes wide but he couldn’t do it. His heart was churning as he became doubtful.
Just as he was about to speak, an even louder rumbling sound rang out from the mountain like heavenly lightning. The mountain, shaking violently, cracked and split from the ground under the strain of two million soul threads.
It was lifted by seven inches!
A black liquid that was like blood seeped out from the mountain and the ground. If one lay on the ground and took a look, they would see countless strands of black flesh and blood between the mountain and the ground.
There were also some bones.
How was this a mountain? This was clearly a physical body, the physical body of the forbidden zone!
This discovery slightly surprised Xu Qing.
The mountain within the forbidden zone weighed much more than those outside, and after sensing it, Xu Qing gained a slightly deeper understanding of the forbidden zone.
In addition, this mountain itself held a significant pressure, making it challenging to lift.
Also, because it was lifted, the anomalous substances on it spread out densely.
The most important thing was the relationship between this mountain and the forbidden zone. It was a part of the forbidden zone. If one wanted to take it away, it would be like cutting off the flesh of a living person.
Right now, just as the mountain was lifted a little, the entire forbidden zone seemed to come alive. From every blade of grass, tree, all the anomalous substances, and mountain rocks, intense rejection and malice came from this world.
The soil was also churning. The corpses of living beings who had died in this forbidden zone since ancient times crawled out one after another. Their ferocity was intense as they rushed toward Xu Qing and the captain.
It didn’t want to give it up!
The entire forbidden zone seemed to have developed its own consciousness and locked onto Xu Qing. The wind that blew over also grew much stronger. It was unknown if it was the sound of the wind or words.
“Leave!”
“Leave immediately!”
“Die!!
These voices caused Xu Qing’s gaze to turn even colder.
He could withstand the pressure, and he could withstand the weight with the soul threads.
He could ignore the anomalous substances. As for the fact that this mountain was one with the forbidden zone…
“Since you don’t want to give it to me, I’ll take you with it.”
Xu Qing’s eyes turned cold. He called out to Little Shadow, who was chasing and playing, in his mind and gave a command.
“Devour this forbidden zone!”
Little Shadow had been waiting for this order for a long time. If it was in the past, it wouldn’t care about these. It would eat when it was hungry. However, even since it met Xu Qing, it was always on tenterhooks and didn’t dare to disobey at all.
Hence, it only dared to chase and torture the fog but didn’t dare to devour it directly. It was worried that it would be punished again if it did something wrong.
Hence, after receiving Xu Qing’s order, the little shadow, who was torturing the blood fog, immediately became excited. Its emotions instantly rose, transforming into a large shadow that directly stood up from the ground.
It was like a black curtain.
One could see a forbidden zone on this curtain!
There was a jungle in the forbidden zone, and in the depths of the jungle, there was a towering tree that was covered with eyes.
This tree was a bizarre entity. A black coffin hung on its branch and was swaying. That was the first form the shadow had displayed, the shadow tree.
There was a coffin hanging from the tree that was swaying like a huge pendulum clock. Inside, there was the ear-piercing sound of fingernails scratching the wooden planks and a murmur that echoed in all directions.
At the next instant, all the eyes opened in unison.
Not only did it come from the tree, but countless eyes in the black curtain’s forbidden zone also opened at this moment, revealing a red glow and greed. A huge crack opened from the curtain.
It emitted an aura of decay.
It pounced fiercely at the rapidly fleeing blood fog.
A mournful wail suddenly echoed in the forbidden zone. The shaking of the entire forbidden zone became even more intense and one could faintly hear the hair-raising chewing sounds.
It was swallowing at every moment.
Amidst the devouring, the shadow that transformed into a curtain landed on the ground again and spread in all directions, covering everything in its path.
Regardless of whether it was vegetation or ferocious beasts, regardless of whether they were alive or dead, they all looked blurry after being covered by the shadow.
Under the shadow, the color of the soil rapidly changed and gradually turned gray. There was no vitality or aura of death. That gray color was like the background color of the world.
It was as though a piece of meat had been swallowed.
The forbidden zone rumbled and the wind grew even stronger. As it whistled, it seemed to emit a roar of pain that echoed in the forbidden zone.
As the shadow spread, the wailing became even more intense.
This scene shocked the captain.
“Well…”
“Little Qing, it’s fine as long as you get bitten by a few mosquitoes. You… why do you look like you’re going to take this forbidden zone away?”
Xu Qing didn’t respond. After he sensed that Little Shadow had begun to spread and devour this forbidden zone, his hand on the mountain rock pressed down again. Immediately, a loud sound rang out from the mountain peak and it was slowly lifted by another seven inches.
The pulling force of the soul threads in the surroundings was even greater, forming a fluctuation that swept through the corpses rushing over in the surroundings, shattering them all thousands of feet away.
The forbidden zone was being refined and the forbidden mountain was being moved away.
At that moment, the shadow was the first to send a fluctuation of emotions, warning Xu Qing. Immediately after, a blue light flashed in the captain’s eyes. He moved his huge body and looked behind him.
Behind them, there was a rainbow that was rapidly rushing over from the other end of the forbidden zone.
The domineering aura and the first stage of Nihility transformed into thousands of illusory meteors that surrounded the rainbow like a meteor shower.
Inside was a tall figure.
This figure was similar to a human but was clearly more muscular. It was almost 20 feet tall and looked like a giant.
His long golden hair fluttered in the wind, exuding nobility.
Its eyes were also golden, giving off a lofty feeling. Its pupils were different from humans. They were vertical pupils, like dragon eyes.
The aura emitted by his body was even more obvious and dense in terms of qi and blood. At that moment, he was like a volcano that was about to erupt. His combat strength also clearly surpassed cultivators of the same realm of the other races.
There was also a faint bloodline talent contained in it. All the anomalous substances in the surroundings were actually rejected. Clearly, in terms of resisting the invasion, it surpassed the vast majority of races.
“Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race!”
The captain’s eyes lit up and he licked his lips..
