Chapter 1264 The Fourth God?

Chapter 1264 The Fourth God?

??A sea of blood filled the sky.

From afar, it was as though doomsday had descended.

As the sea of blood churned, the black-clothed figure inside appeared high and mighty, emitting an extremely powerful aura.

Compared to him, Xu Qing's aura in the rainforest was clearly inferior. At the same time, a huge pressure descended in Xu Qing's mind.

Every inch of flesh in his body was trembling. An intense warning transmitted over from the Heavenly Dao.

Strong, extremely strong!

This was the strongest heaven's chosen Xu Qing had encountered so far.

Regardless of whether it was Tuoshi Shan or Fan Shishuang, Xu Qing had never had such a strong sense of being outmatched. He could fight the former and he had the ability to be on par with the latter. However, Xu Qing was very clear that he wasn't Ji Dongzi's match.

Hence, he retreated and circulated all his cultivation base. Countless soul threads erupted from his body and instantly formed the fourth god form.

It was completed in an instant and he retreated again.

"Although you're quick-witted, you've already lost the qualifications to survive after seeing me."

In the sky, Ji Dongzi calmly spoke. He then lifted his right hand and pressed toward Xu Qing.

With this push, the sea of blood that covered the sky in the surroundings instantly churned violently and expanded to a range of 500 kilometers. It was like a real sea as it swept toward Xu Qing.

Wherever it passed, the void shattered and the world rumbled. With Xu Qing as the center, the rainforest in a radius of 500 kilometers trembled. All the vegetation was illuminated with blood color and the ground turned into blood mud.

All life forms within 500 kilometers wailed. No matter what form they had, be it ferocious beasts or bizarre entities, they instantly turned into blood. Strands of blood rose into the air and connected to the incoming blood sea.

From afar, countless streams of blood rose into the air, seemingly turning this place into a cage of blood.

There were also a large number of blood figures hidden in this sea of blood. They looked at Xu Qing greedily and let out sharp cries as they pounced over.

Ji Dongzi's attacks seemed to seal all escape paths.

The feeling of life-and-death crisis erupted even more intensely in Xu Qing's mind at this moment. His expression was gloomy and he sensed that his escape routes had been sealed, so he decided not to retreat anymore. His fourth god form's divine source spread out and anomalous substances soared, blurring the surroundings.

A voice that was like a god's murmur rang out from Xu Qing's mouth.

"Blood!"

The instant this word echoed through the world, the blood sea that was pressing down on him suddenly trembled. The blood that rose into the air from the rainforest also paused and began to distort.

A huge pulling force arrived out of thin air as Xu Qing's blood authority was unleashed. It guided this sea of blood into forming a vortex that belonged to Xu Qing.

Once it was formed, this sea of blood would be controlled by Xu Qing.

"Not a bad authority. Then what's your limit?"

Ji Dongzi calmly spoke. He then waved his hand again; immediately, the sea of blood erupted. All the blood figures inside roared in unison and melted.

A terrifying scene was reflected in Xu Qing's eyes, causing waves in his heart.

There were thousands of blood figures in the blood sea. After each blood figure melted, it would form a large amount of blood that fused into the blood sea, causing it to be even more astonishing.

In the blink of an eye, after over a hundred blood shadows melted, the range of the blood sea soared to 3,000 kilometers and continued.

3,500, 4,000, 4,500… until 5,000 kilometers.

The sea of blood that stretched for thousands of kilometers stirred up a monstrous intent. Just the aura it emitted formed an aura of extermination. Even though Xu Qing had the authority of blood, the sea of blood that soared still made him feel pressure.

This was especially so since 5,000 kilometers wasn't the end.

As more blood figures melted and fused into the blood sea, it expanded to 10,000 kilometers, 15,000, 20,000…

Finally, after the thousands of blood figures melted, this sea of blood had reached an incomparably terrifying 50,000 kilometers.

The affected rainforest was the same.

50,000 kilometers was an extremely large range. It was as though it had really replaced the sky and was falling toward Xu Qing. Moreover, during this process, it was still expanding.

Xu Qing trembled as he felt his limit. His body became unstable and he felt a tearing pain in his soul.

At this critical moment, Xu Qing's battle instincts played a key role. Determination appeared in his eyes as he gathered the blood authority from its scattered state and condensed it outside his body, forming a blood light. It spun and transformed into a vortex.

In the vortex, his body transformed into blood and scattered.

Since he couldn't resist it, he chose to fuse into it.

At the same time, the 50,000-kilometer-long blood sea in the sky landed on the ground.

The rumbling sound spread out to a range of more than 500,000 kilometers. A large number of Flame Moon Mystic Heaven cultivators in this range sensed it and their hearts trembled as they turned their heads to look into the distance.

They were all shocked.

The rainforest under the sea of blood was completely destroyed. All the vegetation, ferocious beasts, and bizarre entities perished in unison. The ground caved in before being filled up with the sea of blood.

The 50,000-kilometer-long sea of blood transformed the terrain. As it churned continuously, drops of blood rapidly rose into the air and gathered together, forming Xu Qing's body.

As soon as he appeared, he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale and his god form had shattered as he rapidly retreated.

Although he chose to use the integration method to resolve the crisis at the final moment, the huge difference in strength between them still caused Xu Qing to be heavily injured.

"You only amount to this much."

A cold voice rang out from the void in front of Xu Qing.

What reflected in Xu Qing's eyes was a finger that appeared out of thin air. It carried the power of extermination as it pressed down on him.

Even though he was at an absolute disadvantage, Xu Qing remained calm. He was well aware that his every move must have purpose. If he panicked even a little, the consequences would be dire.

His eyes turned pitch-black. The power of the Poison Restriction erupted in all directions, forming endless black fog that invaded the finger that had appeared.

Black spots immediately appeared on that finger, showing signs of rotting.

However, at the next moment, a second finger appeared in another direction and also pressed toward Xu Qing.

Seven lumps of underworld fire rose in Xu Qing's body and were extinguished one by one. It was none other than the Seven Lanterns Underworld Fire Curse.

As they were extinguished, the second finger also began to decay.

Xu Qing retreated even faster.

A soft cry of surprise echoed at this moment. Clearly, Xu Qing's successive attacks had surprised Ji Dongzi.

"Interesting."

After a soft exclamation of surprise, a light laugh rang out. After that, what appeared in front of Xu Qing was no longer a finger but a blood-red, complete palm!

Its aura was violent and much stronger than before. There was also an irresistible feeling that rose from within, suppressing the mind.

In fact, it even had the power of the Soul Accumulation!

It ignored the Poison Restriction and the underworld fire curse and landed in front of Xu Qing, replacing everything in his eyes.

The feeling of life and death was unprecedented!

Xu Qing wanted to resist but it was difficult for him to hold on. His body trembled and his god form directly collapsed, transforming into countless soul threads that rolled back and quickly gathered. However, it still collapsed.

It collapsed once, then again, and again.

When the soul threads couldn't gather and spread in all directions, it revealed Xu Qing's main body with his eyes closed.

As for Ji Dongzi's palm, it passed through the soul threads and was about to press down on Xu Qing's main body.

Xu Qing's eyes suddenly opened, revealing purple pupils.

He had been waiting for this moment. Everything before was to weaken the enemy to a certain extent.

A purple moon distorted and appeared between Xu Qing and Ji Dongzi's palm.

That wasn't an illusory moon but a real existence. At first, it was very small but it rapidly expanded. One could see a stone stele on it and the names of a large number of believers.

At this moment, in the Black Spirit Region, countless temples of the Purple Lord trembled. Countless believers were worshiping. The power of faith gathered and formed purple light that shone in front of Ji Dongzi in the Mountains and Seas Region.

His hand directly turned purple and his momentum paused for a moment. He wanted to withdraw his palm, but it was too late. The rapidly expanding purple moon suddenly rushed forward and pressed down on his palm with great force.

It instantly came into contact with the hand and pushed it back continuously.

The ripples spread out, outlining the figure of Ji Dongzi, who was hiding in the void behind the palm.

lights??v?l ??m This figure rapidly materialized and revealed a surprised expression. Just as he was about to continue attacking, the purple moonlight erupted in the next instant, dyeing his entire body red.

At the same time, the soul threads that had scattered earlier rushed over from all directions. Their target wasn't Xu Qing but Ji Dongzi.

Millions of soul threads surrounded him, forming a binding force.

All of this took a long time to describe but in reality, it happened in the blink of an eye. The moment Ji Dongzi was bombarded by the purple moon and entangled by the soul threads, the killing intent in Xu Qing's eyes was intense. He raised his right hand and grabbed at Ji Dongzi.

The surroundings trembled and ripples appeared in the world, as though it had changed into a well.

The well water fluctuated, reflecting all of Ji Dongzi's spells, as well as all the fragments of his past and future. It also included Ji Dongzi's soul!

This also contained all of Ji Dongzi's unknown secrets.

For example, soul… When Xu Qing saw it, his eyes narrowed.

Ji Dongzi's soul wasn't just one wisp but a total of 97 wisps!

Inside each wisp was a golden divine tablet.

On the 97 divine tablets, there were 97 figures carved. Their appearances were different but they all emitted the presence of gods.

This scene caused Xu Qing's heart to tremble.

This was because those divine tablets depicted 97 gods!

One of them was the skeletal statue Xu Qing had seen in the rainforest previously!

Xu Qing felt that Ji Dongzi was more like a vessel to contain the divine tablets!

Xu Qing didn't know if this was a ritual or not, but he instinctively thought of what the Fifth Prince had stated in the Human Emperor's Hall!

"The anomalous substances in the Flame Moon Region have increased by three times compared to the previous year. After King Zhen Yan paid attention to them, he stated that it's suspected that… the Flame Moon is planning to welcome a fourth god!"
