Chapter 1270: The Secrets Hidden by the Gods

Translator: Atlas Studio

As this bitter voice appeared, waves stirred in Xu Qing’s mind. A memory that didn’t belong to him appeared in his mind.

This memory was fragmented and incoherent, like a puzzle.

Because it lacked a lot of details, even when it surfaced in Xu Qing’s mind, it was still difficult for him to piece together intact answers.

Only a relatively clear understanding was revealed from this memory fragment.

Countless years ago, during the era of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether, when the gods had not descended on Wanggu, Flame Moon Mystic Heaven had another name.

This race’s former name was… the Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race!

It was one of the most important allies under the command of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether.

It was also the race with the most support from rhe human race.

They had an extremely close relationship with the human race and fully supported the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether to ascend the throne and unify Wanggu.

In fact, during the era of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether, the Ancient Sovereign and the Ancestral Magus had bonds forged in life and death. Before they reached the pinnacle of their achievements, they were partners and close friends, saving each other’s lives many times.

That Ancestral Magus’s strength was astonishing. He could be said to be Mystic

Nether’s right-hand man. He had made a great contribution to unifying Wanggu for the Ancient Sovereign.

The only son of the Ancestral Magus was named by the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether.

This realization surfaced in the memory fragments and was reflected in Xu Qing’s perception, causing his heart to shake. His closed eyes suddenly opened, revealing a bewildered expression.

Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race, Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race…”

Xu Qing’s breathing hastened slightly. Regardless of whether he was in the imperial capital or in the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race, he had never seen an introduction to this history.

Now that he recalled it, the records of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race and the human race could only be traced back to the great defeat during the Human Emperor Eastern Triumph’s Era. There were no records of the history before that.

It was as though both sides had unknowingly erased the history of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether Era.

However, no one thought of it, no one paid attention, and no one tried to look into it. It was as though the blank history was reasonable.

This was extremely bizarre.

Cognition is affected!”

These words instantly appeared in Xu Qing’s mind.

To be able to affect the two races for such a long time… it must be the power of the gods.”

Xu Qing remained silent as he thought of the three gods of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race.

He carefully sorted out the memory fragments that appeared in his mind after he fished out the skull. Although it was still difficult to grasp the details, he had an additional guess about the Jiuli Forbidden.

There’s a high chance that the Father Magus mentioned in that sentence is the close friend of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether, the Ancestral Magus.”

The son of the Ancestral Magus is called Li…

This name was given by the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether, and this is the land of Jiuli.”

Xu Qing’s heart churned.

Is Jiuli not a ferocious beast… but the son of the Ancestral Magus of the Mystic I leaven Great Magus Race?”

In that case, him saying he has let down the Mystic Heaven Great Magus

Race…”

Xu Qing lowered his head and looked at the marsh under him. His gaze seemed to be able to penetrate ten thousand feet and see the seal below.

Is that mountain of ashes formed by Jiuli’s corpse?”

Xu Qing fell silent and curious about this land of Jiuli.

Awhile later, he retracted his thoughts and sensed his purple crystal. In this crystal, a skull appeared, shining with a strange light.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and lifted his head to look at the bronze incense burner above his head. Very soon, he made a decision.

He waved his hand fiercely, instantly dissipating the smoke rings emitted by the bronze incense burner.

The smoke ring’s isolation power also disappeared.

The gray fog that filled the surroundings instantly pounced over.

However, a bizarre scene appeared.

After the fog got close to Xu Qing, although the suppression on the god’s power and cultivation base was still terrifying, the invasion on Xu Qing’s body and soul actually decreased!

However, the feeling of karma was even more intense, causing Xu Qing’s connection with this place to be incomparably close. It was as though they were becoming one and were inseparable.

Xu Qing sensed for a long time and a sharp glint appeared in his eyes. He lifted his hand and pointed at the bronze incense burner. The smoke rings landed and the isolation formed again. His divine power and cultivation base became active again.

This gray fog from the Jiuli is incomparably domineering and rejects all foreign energies, causing ail cultivators who arrive to be unable to leave after stepping in.”

However, after i fused with a skull, I’m no longer completely different from the gray fog here. So… I’m considered to have half the same source?¹‘

Then, if I can fish out all nine skulls and completely resemble the same source as the gray fog, the gray fog will no longer be a restriction to me.”

Although that will deepen the karma between me and this place, and the gray fog won’t let me leave…”

What if i leave with the gray fog?!”

Xu Qing mumbled. After that, he closed his eyes again and began to recuperate.

Just like that, time flowed by. A few days later, Xu Qing opened his eyes and sensed that there were fewer cracks on his Sundials. He also sensed that Fishing the Moon From the Well could be activated again.

Hence, he didn’t hesitate at all. He stood up and walked to the area on the marsh which was above the second skull according to his memory.

Over there, he lifted his hand and performed a series of hand seals. The brown flame appeared once again and burned the flesh of the Crimson Goddess. Very soon, droplets of liquid fell and the marsh melted, revealing a small hole.

After having a successful experience, it was much easier for Xu Qing to repeat his previous success.

Although the consumption of the Sundials and the effect on his body still existed, after the ten thousand-foot-long passage was formed and Fishing the Moon From rhe Well was activated, the world rumbled. A second skull appeared in the water he fished our with his right hand.

He swallowed it and activated the purple crystal’s power to seal it.

The memory storm appeared in his mind again and there were more memory fragments.

Xu Qing suppressed the thought of searching through the memories and closed his eyes to recuperate. Just like that, half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Although it was inevitable that there would be failures, overall, Xu Qing succeeded most of the time.

There were a total of four skulls in the purple crystal!

The four skulls caused Xu Qing’s connection with the Jiuli Forbidden to reach an astonishing level. In fact, he no longer needed the bronze incense burner.

The gray fog here had completely lost its invasion to him. It swam around him and actually gave off an intimate feeling.

He could even use the divine and cultivation power to a certain extent.

This was unprecedented in rhe Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race!

in fact, if Ji Dongzi was here and saw this scene, he would definitely be extremely shocked and wouldn’t believe what he saw.

It was truly unbelievable!

However… this was Xu Qing’s limit.

This was because the brown flame had finally extinguished after burning for more than half a month.

Without the fire, it was impossible to burn the Crimson Goddess’ flesh to form the golden liquid that could melt the marsh.

Unless Xu Qing could think of another way, if he wanted to continue, he could only personally sink into the mud.

However, after some thought, he still gave up on this thought.

As he could be said to be of the same source as this place, Xu Qing had a premonition that once he entered 10,000 feet below the marsh, he would probably be instantly judged as Jiuli by the shrine there…

He would then be suppressed.

At that time, there would be no hope at all.

As for how to continue, Xu Qing didn’t think about it for the rime being.

This was because the memory fragments contained in the four skulls kept piecing together in his mind until a piece of history that had been hidden for countless years and the mystery that was concealed by the gods lifted a corner.

The wind of the ancient era blew.

It was rhe story after the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether left.

The Ancestral Magus of the Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race rejected the invitation of his close friend, Mystic nether, and refused to leave Wanggu, his hometown.

The two sides had a rare disagreement when it came to facing the gods.

The moment the Ancient Sovereign left and the gods fragmented-face arrived, the world turned dark and blurry. Accompanying the fragmented-face were numerous terrifying gods.

That day, the Heavenly Dao cried and all living beings wailed.

These gods scattered in the Wanggu Continent. Some landed in the territories of the races that stayed behind and some in secret realms, each causing a calamity.

One of them, which looked like a spider, walked out of the fragmented-face.

Its level was astonishing, surpassing most of the gods.

Wherever It passed, the gods would lower Their heads.

its target was clear. That was… rhe Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race.

It wanted to enslave this race and become their faith.

The Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race wasn’t willing to be slaves. Under the lead of the Mystic Heaven Ancestral Magus, they didn’t hesitate to risk their lives to fight against the gods.

In this battle, the world was covered in blood and the great region collapsed.

As a close friend of Mystic Nether, the strength of the Mystic Heaven Ancestral Magus was naturally terrifying, and his clan members were equally formidable. Their sorcery differed from that of cultivators, with some transforming into giants and others into huge beasts.

That battle was earth-shattering.

Countless people from the Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race died, and the gods… also fell. Many of Them were killed and Their corpses fell to the ground.

In the end, the Ancestral Magus sacrificed his life to heavily injure the spider-form god worshiped by the gods and died, transforming into God Killing Array, sealing off all divine power and enveloping his race to protect it.

Before he died, he passed the position of the Ancestral Magus to his only son, allowing him to uphold the faith of the Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race and fight against the gods for the race!

His son was called Jiuli.

Jiuli was heartbroken, but in this era, in this world filled with gods, he didn’t only inherit the position of the Ancestral Magus and the faith of his race, but he also inherited responsibility.

Hence, he led rhe remaining great magi of the race and continued to fight against the gods outside the God Killing Array without retreating.

To the Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race, Jiuli was a qualified Ancestral Magus.

This was because under his and all the great magi’s resistance against the gods, they continued to survive. In the territory of the Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race, which was enveloped by the God Killing Array, the race obtained time to rest and recuperate.

Gradually, a new generation of magi began to appear. Among them, one had peerless aptitude and even possessed the demeanor of a leader.

Because the Ancestral Magus stayed out to battle, he was almost only a legend. Moreover, the race had to adapt to the changing times. Thus, this highly anticipated figure, who had risen to prominence within the clan, became the first Great Magistrate of the Mystic Heaven Great Magus Race.

Ancestral Magus governed the sky, managing heavenly fate.

The patriarch governed the earthly, managing mortal authority.

Thus, it was called the Great Magistrate.

At this point, the memory was interrupted.

Xu Qing opened his eyes with a complicated expression. This was because he thought of the information he had seen about Jiuli in the holy city.

The name of the ferocious beast ranked first in the Mountains and Seas Region is Jiuli!

This beast’s status in the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race was very special.

This was because in the history of the Flame Moon Race, there had only been one time when Jiuli was subdued.

That was the first patriarch of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race back then.

He was also the one who led the rise of this race and unified the Great Magistrates.

His mount was the Jiuli..
