609 Nether Spirit Blood Wing Lantern
Dense power of heaven and earth surged over like a tide. At this moment, the sky distorted and the sky seemed to have transformed into a sea of spiritual energy.
The Immemorial Heavenly Dao in the crack moved its large hand again, pulling the ten guts trees into the crack bit by bit and continuously absorbing it.
Xu Qing, the captain, and the others also slowly approached the crack.
Xu Qing and the captain weren’t the only ones who benefited. Although Ning Yan and Qing Qiu didn’t get as much as the two of them, they also benefited greatly. Their cultivation bases were fluctuating.
Xu Qing at this moment felt his emotions rising and falling, as he sensed his Sixth Heavenly Palace.
This Sixth Heavenly Palace was completely golden. With the Heavenly Dao in the depths, a sea formed in the Heavenly Palace. The mosasaur swam around and emitted waves of Dao charms.
The power of heaven and earth in the surroundings continued to surge over. Xu Qing’s heart pounded quickly and desire rose in his heart. He immediately absorbed them into the Seventh Heavenly Palace.
Tens of breaths later, Xu Qing abruptly lifted his head, his eyes revealing a resplendent light. More than half of the Seventh Heavenly Palace had materialized.
70%, 80%, 90%…
As Xu Qing took a deep breath, his Seventh Heavenly Palace manifested by 99%.
“The item which will go into this Heavenly Palace…” Xu Qing’s mind raced. He had cultivated the Extreme Heaven Saber for a short period, so it wasn’t suitable to use it now. He also wasn’t qualified to use it as a golden core.
The Bizarre Nether Dao Snatching Art was special. Although it was called a cultivation art, it was actually more of a divine ability. It was different from Golden Crow Refines All Life and wasn’t suitable.
As for the black iron stick and shadow, Xu Qing immediately cut them off.
Although these two were extremely obedient under his methods, Xu Qing still didn’t completely trust them, let alone place them in the Heavenly Palace.
Although there were magic treasure fragments in the storage bag that could be used as external objects, they were still a little inferior.
“The purple crystal can be used as well, but this item is the core existence on me. I know too little about it and can’t make the decision easily.”
“Other than this, there’s actually something else that can be used!” As countless thoughts flashed through Xu Qing’s mind, he didn’t hesitate anymore and immediately activated the Ghost Emperor Mountain in his sea of consciousness.
He moved it to the Seventh Heavenly Palace.
The instant they came into contact, the Seventh Heavenly Palace trembled violently. The Seventh Heavenly Palace was actually rejecting the Ghost Emperor Mountain.
Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed. He had encountered a similar rejection before.
That was when he tried to place the Poison Restriction Pill in the Heavenly Palace.
Back then, because the poison of the Poison Restriction Pill was too ferocious, it took time to fuse. What he had to do was not die before the fusion was completed.
After experiencing all kinds of torture and pain, he finally succeeded in placing the Poison Restriction Pill in the Heavenly Palace.
Xu Qing understood that although the Purple Moon’s status was extremely high, he was the one who plundered it after all. In the end, it was an item that completely belonged to him. The Golden Crow and mosasaur were the same, so there was no rejection.
However, although this Ghost Emperor Mountain was also formed from his comprehension, at the end of the day, it was still a copy. To a certain extent, it was half an external object and didn’t completely belong to him.
If he wanted to place it in the Heavenly Palace and completely fuse them, it wouldn’t be strange for it to reject him.
A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes. He opened his mouth and sucked fiercely. Immediately, the boundless power of heaven and earth in the surroundings gushed over crazily, entering the Seventh Heavenly Palace to augment it and increasing its strength to fuse the Ghost Emperor Mountain.
At the next instant, the Ghost Emperor Mountain trembled and slowly overlapped with the Seventh Heavenly Palace.
This process wasn’t very fast but it wasn’t as slow as the Poison Restriction Pill back then. This was especially so now that the power of heaven and earth in Xu Qing’s surroundings was incomparably dense. This allowed him to have an endless stream of help.
Time flowed by. As the ten guts trees continued to fuse into the crack in the sky, the Ghost Emperor Mountain’s fusion was also proceeding.
30%, 50%, 70%…
Xu Qing sat down cross-legged and grabbed the tree branch at the side tightly. After stabilizing his body, all the pores on his body were controlled and opened. His abdomen contracted and he inhaled again. Immediately, the power of heaven and earth in the surroundings surged over in waves.
Finally, 30 breaths later, the Ghost Emperor Mountain completely fused with the Seventh Heavenly Palace. As a rumbling sound echoed in Xu Qing’s mind, the Seventh Heavenly Palace completely took shape.
Its appearance wasn’t a palace but more like a temple.
In the temple, the Ghost Emperor sat cross-legged and meditated. There were two long sabers behind him and an Absolute Beginning Separation Pillar on his knees. Its entire body emitted a shocking divine charm. However, from its appearance, it was already identical to Xu Qing!
The instant the Seventh Heavenly Palace took shape, Xu Qing’s body emitted even more powerful fluctuations. As his aura rose, Xu Qing could clearly sense how powerful he was at this moment.
Compared to him from before when he hadn’t entered the True Immortal Ten Guts, the difference was like heaven and earth.
“The fortune this time is indeed great!”
“However, it’s still not over!”
Xu Qing opened his eyes and sensed that the power of heaven and earth in the surroundings was showing signs of exhaustion. He knew that the first gift he had obtained from helping the Heavenly Dao complete was about to end.
Hence, he lifted his right hand and took out the blood-winged life lantern.
As his left hand formed a seal, the power of heaven and earth in the surroundings surged over. It didn’t fuse into his body but rushed into the life lantern.
He wanted to borrow the power of heaven and earth here to cleanse this life lantern
After all, this item was sent by the Holy Wave Race. He could not use it easily.
Regardless of whether this life lantern had some flaws or was hiding some hidden arrangements, they would be cleansed by the power of heaven and earth.
In the blink of an eye, under the integration of the power of heaven and earth, the blood light of the life lantern flickered and became increasingly intense. Finally, it erupted with light.
After cleansing several times in a row, Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and performed a series of hand seals with his left hand. Immediately, the seven Heavenly Palaces in his body circulated at the same time. The power of the Ghost Emperor descended and cleansed the lantern.
After that, the power of the Golden Crow gushed in, followed by the power of the Purple Moon and the aura of the Poison Restriction. Finally, the mosasaur manifested and spat out golden light.
After washing the life lantern inside and out in so many ways, Xu Qing finally relaxed and no longer hesitated to fuse it into his body.
As the life lantern disappeared from his hand, very soon, another Heavenly Palace appeared in the life fog in his sea of consciousness.
The life fog churned and Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness trembled. Blood light erupted from the Heavenly Palace that was gradually forming and pierced through the life fog. At the same time, the third life lantern Heavenly Palace took shape.
In an instant, all the information about this third life lantern appeared in Xu Qing’s mind.
This lantern was called the Nether Spirit Blood Wing Lantern.
Its enhancement was different from Xu Qing’s two life lanterns. It wasn’t for defense, nor was it for killing as it looked. It only had one use, and that was speed!
Those who possessed this life lantern would have an extremely astonishing speed that could erupt with several times their own speed.
It should have been a pair. If there were both of them, not only would its speed be even more terrifying, but it would also form an incomparably terrifying lethality.
Although he only had one wing now, Xu Qing was still satisfied. This was especially so after he sensed the speed enhancement of this life lantern.
The harvest this time was incomparable.
Regardless of whether it was military contributions or the Heavenly Dao, it was enough to make people envious to the extreme. His cultivation level also soared from five Heavenly Palaces to eight Heavenly Palaces.
Moreover, because the Eighth Palace was formed from the life lantern, it added to his extreme limit of palaces, increasing the number of Heavenly Palaces he could have from ten to eleven.
The power of heaven and earth gradually dissipated. Although his ninth Heavenly Palace hadn’t fully materialized, it was already almost half completed. The gut tree they were on was less than 10,000 feet away from the crack in the sky.
Seeing that the tree was continuously melting, Xu Qing had the intention to leave. Hence, he looked at the captain.
Compared to before, the captain’s aura had clearly risen by an extremely large extent. Even though Xu Qing had become stronger now, he still couldn’t see through him.
However, Xu Qing was already used to this.
“Eldest Senior Brother, we should leave.”
When Qing Qiu and Ning Yan heard this, they opened their eyes in shock.
Ning Yan revealed a hint of nervousness. However, compared to Ning Yan’s confusion, Qing Qiu more or less had some answers to Xu Qing and Chen Erniu’s identities. Her expression under the mask was filled with complications.
The captain licked his lips and looked at the hand of the Heavenly Dao above.
“Let’s wait a little longer.”
Xu Qing followed the captain’s gaze and looked at the snow-white hand. With his understanding of the captain, he immediately understood what the other party wanted to do.
He wasn’t surprised. After all, every time the captain finished something big, he would say this.
Noticing Xu Qing’s expression, the captain blinked.
“Junior Brother, this matter has blown up too much. I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for us to leave with ordinary methods. However, I told you before that I have a great treasure.”
“After this item is used, although it can’t get us to a fixed destination, it can still allow us to teleport over a long distance. I’ve adjusted the direction to Fenghai County.”
“However, the power source needed to operate this item is too great. In order for us to leave successfully, I plan to greet my son.”
“Oh.” Xu Qing nodded.
The captain coughed and laughed.
“Um, if anything happens to me later, Junior Brother, you must remember to kick me into the teleportation array.”
As soon as the captain finished speaking, Qing Qiu fell silent and turned her head with an unknown expression.
However, Ning Yan’s expression changed. When he heard Fenghai County, he abruptly looked at Xu Qing and the captain. Previously, although he was muddle-headed and didn’t react, he already had doubts in his heart. It was just that what happened later was too fast and too shocking, so he didn’t have time to think too much.
Now that he had calmed down, the doubts in Ning Yan’s heart grew increasingly intense as he looked at Xu Qing and the captain.
However, the instant his gaze landed on Xu Qing and the captain, madness appeared in the captain’s eyes. When the Heavenly Dao’s large hand released and grabbed a tree trunk 1000 feet away, his body suddenly rushed forward like a hyena.
“Heavenly Dao… I wonder what it tastes like.”
The captain’s eyes emitted an intense light. In an instant, he arrived beside his son’s large snow-white hand and hugged it. He then tilted his head slightly back. His mouth opened wide and he suddenly bit down on the hand.
Crack!
