Chapter 1036 Having a Storm in the Heart Is What It Means to Live

There was no turning back in life.

So, no matter how much Ning Yan sighed inwardly, a missed opportunity was a missed opportunity.

Xu Qing saw his regret, but couldn't say anything. As for the captain, he was smug. Back then, on account that Ning Yan was his and Xu Qing's future weapon, he had reminded him.

However, since the other party didn't believe him and didn't cut his intestine, it had nothing to do with him.

At that moment, the apothecary was silent.

A long time later, the heir put down his teacup and smiled. He looked at Xu Qing and nodded slightly.

"Not bad."

Xu Qing hesitated. He could tell that the heir's smile was a little forced. He knew that his Heavenly Dao's identity should have surprised the other party. Just as he was about to say something, the heir quickly changed the topic.

"The Heavenly Dao is your family matter. Just comprehend it well. Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about your Ghost Emperor Mountain."

"This mountain…" The heir's gaze landed on Xu Qing. Just as he was about to speak, Princess Mingmei picked up her teacup.

This action caused the heir to pause. After some thought, he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Since you can move the Soul Accumulation body to your sea of consciousness to form your nascent soul, you must have your own plans. In that case, you can strengthen this mountain according to your own thoughts."

"The reason I called you is about your Heavenly demon body!"

"Heavenly demon body?" Xu Qing's gaze froze. With a wave of his hand, a hundred illusory figures appeared outside his body. Every one of them emitted waves of cold aura, like souls but not souls.

Their bodies were blurry, giving off a hazy feeling. However, their baleful aura was extremely strong. After they appeared, the entire apothecary instantly turned cold.

Fifth Sister observed carefully. After Old Eighth swept his gaze over, he let out a soft cry of surprise.

"What divine art is this? Refining life into souls, blending the sense of the underworld, containing the intent of the nine abysses, mysterious and bizarre, beyond the grasp of ordinary people!"

Princess Mingmei fell into deep thought.

The heir secretly perked up. Regarding Xu Qing's terrifying comprehension abilities and bizarre nascent souls, he decided not to try to guide them. However, he felt that he still had the right to speak about divine powers and spells. Hence, he calmly spoke.

"The Nascent Soul cultivation art your master imparted to you, coupled with your heavenly mandate absorption art, is not bad."

"However, you haven't studied this technique either. In reality, there are better ways to use these heavenly demon bodies of yours."

Xu Qing's expression changed. He looked at his heavenly devil bodies and fell silent as he recalled the words his master had said when he imparted the cultivation art to him back then.

He remembered that his master's explanation for the heavenly demon body was to use them to withstand the life tribulation in his place.

However, the development of the situation deviated a bit. The life tribulations that Xu Qing experienced after meeting the heir were increasingly terrifying, and the significance of the heavenly demons resisting the tribulation seemed insignificant.

"Senior, please guide me." Xu Qing bowed respectfully.

Seeing that the matter was back in his control, the heir finally felt a little more comfortable. However, after considering that there might still be accidents, he instinctively looked at his third sister.

Princess Mingmei suddenly spoke.

"Xu Qing, I can tell that these heavenly demon bodies of yours contain the intent of the Xinan's cruel order. Your master isn't simple. When he created this divine power for you, he must have referenced Xinan's cruel order."

"The meaning of this body is to take your place in facing the tribulation."

"But have you ever thought of using your morning glow to cover their bodies and disguise these heavenly demons as souls to look like you?"

"This way, when you fight with someone and you bring out the heavenly demons, the enemy will feel like countless you appeared with no way to tell if they're real or fake. At that time, you can attack, retreat, or defend. You will have endless possibilities."

When the heir heard this, he laughed and nodded.

"I think so too. If you can manifest your real body into one of them, your combat strength will definitely increase explosively and it will be extremely difficult to deal with."

As the two spoke, the captain's expression changed slightly. Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu were even more surprised. Just thinking that if they were to engage in a fight with someone, and suddenly a hundred identical figures appeared on the other side, it was indeed extremely strange.

Xu Qing's eyes lit up. He hadn't thought of this before. Now that he heard it, admiration rose in his heart.

However, compared to the changes in his spell, he was more looking forward to the changes in his nascent souls. Hence, he looked at the heir and Princess Mingmei and waited for their next guidance.

"Senior, there's another special one among my nascent souls. There's a finger of a god inside. It's a cage called D132."

"Do not bite off more than you can chew."

The heir's gaze revealed sternness.

"Go back first and improve your heavenly demon body. Don't be anxious. You have to think about it carefully."

Xu Qing nodded. He knew that he was anxious. Hence, he bowed and walked back to the back room. He then sat down cross-legged and began his research.

Just like that, time flowed by.

It had been six days since Xu Qing and the others left the Land of God Slaying.

During these six days, the gray storm in the desert continued to howl, blotting out the sky and enveloping the surroundings.

Outside the desert, many areas of the Moon Worship Region also had extremely violent storms rumbling. However, this storm wasn't corporeal. It was erupting in the hearts of all living beings.

The scene of Ruler Li Zihua killing the Crimson Goddess was the source of this storm. After continuously churning in the minds of the living beings, it thoroughly ignited the spirit of resistance.

The countdown to their deaths was less than a year. If they didn't resist, they would become food.

Although they would die even if they resisted, at least in this muddle-headed life, they would go out brilliantly.

At the very least, they could say that they had truly lived!

Gods weren't eternal and only hope lasted forever. Since that was the case… then they would struggle, go crazy, and resist, leaving behind a different color in their last moments.

At least, this was hope!

A storm rose in the minds of all living beings. All the races, sects, and cities let out shouts and took action.

At the same time, the Rebellion Army formed by the Moon Rebel Hall's cultivators in various places also welcomed a huge surge of members. Countless originally numb cultivators joined.

A large number of races and sects looked at the Red Moon Shrine with crazed gazes of hatred and raised the blade in their hearts!

The five deputy hall masters of the Moon Rebel Hall chose to walk out from behind the scenes. For the first time in their lives, they revealed their identities and called for all living beings to resist.

Among these five, some were the patriarchs of large clans, some were sect supreme elders, and some were cultivators who had once made a name for themselves in the entire region before disappearing.

Their cultivation levels were all at the peak of the fourth stage of Nihility.

Their identities, cultivation levels, and courage transformed into five huge vortexes that attracted cultivators from all directions.

They formed five major war zones!

The Red Moon Shrine was enraged and a suppression began.

However, the strange thing was that… the high priest of the Red Moon Shrine didn't personally take action. He seemed to have some reservations and chose to guard the headquarters.

Even so, there were many forces in the Red Moon Shrine and the suppression continued.

The flames of war erupted in various places in the entire Moon Worship Region.

Only the desert became a peaceful land.

Xu Qing was still studying his heavenly demon body. Under the envelopment of the morning glow, he could transform those heavenly demon bodies into the same appearance as him.

However, it was very difficult for him to transform into them. Their essence was different, causing there to be obstacles in the transformation. Hence, Xu Qing's focus was on concealment.

Using the concealment technique, he could indirectly achieve the goal of catching the enemy off guard.

As for the war in the outside world, Xu Qing paid attention to it through the Moon Rebel Hall. He had a strong feeling that this war wasn't far from him.

This was because he discovered that Eighth Grandpa and Fifth Grandma had disappeared.

It was unknown where they went.

Xu Qing fell into deep thought. In the following days, he noticed his eldest senior brother's abnormality.

Eldest Senior Brother was clearly more attentive to the heir and Princess Mingmei than before, especially to the heir.

He was actually boiling water himself. Other than making tea for the heir, he even volunteered to massage the heir's shoulders and legs, looking extremely filial.

Xu Qing immediately determined that Eldest Senior Brother must have something to ask of the heir.

The answer was obtained five days later.

On this day, Xu Qing was studying the heavenly demon body when the heir's voice rang out from the main hall.

"Xu Qing, come over."

Xu Qing opened his eyes and glanced at the main hall. He noticed that the captain was fanning the heir and his expression was clearly filled with excitement.

Xu Qing thought about it and walked out. When he met the captain's gaze, the captain chuckled and fanned even harder.

"Senior."

Xu Qing strode closer and greeted.

"I originally wanted to give you something after some time, but Erniu is a little anxious, so I'll give it to you in advance."

The heir calmly waved his hand and took out a mirror fragment.

This item was none other than the Heavenly Eye fragment that had communicated with the Moon Rebel Hall and reflected everything in the minds of all living beings.

Looking at the mirror, the captain's eyes revealed desire. He possessed been solicitous during this period of time for this mirror.

Xu Qing also swept his gaze over and knew that this item was extraordinary.

"The predecessor of the Moon Rebel Hall was my father's supreme treasure, the Heavenly Eye. However, it shattered in the battle with the Crimson Goddess. This piece is one of the largest fragments of the Heavenly Eye."

The heir touched the mirror and spoke hoarsely.

"Using this to enter the Moon Rebel Hall is different from using other mirrors."

"This mirror fragment can activate the Moon Rebel Hall's master recognition trial."

"If you succeed in the trial, you can become the master of the Moon Rebel Hall. If you fail, there's a certain chance of you becoming a deputy hall master. The five deputy hall masters of the Moon Rebel Hall all appeared in such a way."

"However, the trial can only be activated once. After the two of you enter this time, this mirror will lose its quota for the trial. Only when the Moon Rebel Hall recovers after a period of dormancy will the quota be available again."

As he spoke, the heir placed the mirror on the table.

"The two of you can step in together and see who has this fortune."

The heir stood up and walked out of the apothecary. He possessed many things to arrange and prepare for the upcoming battle.

Seeing that the heir possessed left, the captain was overjoyed. He lifted up the mirror with a fanatical expression.

"Little Qing, I've finally obtained this opportunity. Haha, I can guess that you're Pill Nine, right? It's fine. Although there's a high chance that you're Pill Nine, this time… I'll be the master of the Moon Rebel Hall!"

"I've been preparing for this for a long time."

"Little Qing, after we enter, you can just play casually. You don't have to feel pressured or care about me. No matter what I've become, just pretend you didn't see it."

"I have a plan!"

The captain gazed at Xu Qing, his eyes shining.
