Outside the Yinghuang Province, on the black Forbidden Sea, the waves surged, and the thick aura of anomalous substances transformed into a chilling atmosphere, corroding all the various sea races. Even the scorching noon sunlight couldn't melt away these anomalous substances.
It also couldn't illuminate the mysterious depths of the sea.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm Because of this, for countless years, there have been numerous legends about the Forbidden Sea, especially stories about divine creatures.
Only the large races on the sea or high-level cultivators knew that although those divine creatures were powerful, they weren't invincible.
Moreover, in this world, the fragmented-face wasn't the only god, so… the most terrifying presence within the depths of the Forbidden Sea wasn't the divine creatures, but the slumbering gods.
Gods could slumber within the sun and the moon, reside within Immortal Forbidden, and exist in the land of the wicked. Therefore, the Forbidden Sea that encircled the Ancient Antiquity Continent was also a natural choice for the slumber of gods.
cThis was especially so since… the Forbidden Sea was too big.
Just the sea area between the Yinghuang Province and the Nanhuang Continent was incomparably vast, let alone outside the Nanhuang Continent.
In fact, even the sea area where the Nanhuang Continent was located was merely a coastal region when compared to the entirety of the Forbidden Sea.
The former name of the Forbidden Sea was the Endless Sea, which already spoke to its extent.
It seemed to constitute a world of its own, facing off against the continent, challenging the heavens, and standing as if an independent realm.
Outside the Yinghuang Province, waves were churning. In the sky, a black great wing was moving forward.
This was Old Master Seventh's great wing, and he had allowed Xu Qing to use it in Fenghai County.
The great wing had a spirit and didn't need to be controlled personally. As long as there was enough power source and authority, anyone could control it for a short period of time.
The people who went out with Xu Qing were the 1,000 Sword Holders and Daoist Sima from the county capital, as well as Qingqin, who was soaring in the sky.
Under the cackling sound of Qingqin, other birds didn't dare to rise to a comfortable altitude. They had to stay at low altitudes, occasionally diving into the sea to catch prey and quickly returning.
It was also because of this that many plesiosaurs were attracted. They would often burst out of the water's surface in an instant, biting the low-flying birds and crashing back into the sea with a roar, creating even larger waves.
Xu Qing stood on the balcony of the great wing and his gaze landed on the surface of the sea. As he looked at the large waves caused by a plesiosaur, he recalled the scenes of his first trip to the sea back then.
After a while, Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and looked at the fish bone spike he was holding.
In the sunlight, this black spike seemed like a black hole, absorbing light while emanating an even more astonishing aura.
Many Sword Holders outside the tower had serious expressions upon sensing it. However, here with Xu Qing, due to his connection to it through his physical body, while there was a sense of pressure, there was also a stronger sense of resonance.
At this moment, as he gazed at the Spike of Misfortune, Xu Qing's eyes showed contemplation. After a moment, he suddenly spoke up.
"You Lingzi."
In an instant, the black iron stick flew out of Xu Qing's storage bag and floated in front of him. As it trembled, the figure of the Diamond Sect's ancestor appeared and greeted Xu Qing.
"Master!"
The Diamond Sect's ancestor was already extremely nervous. The feeling of impending calamity was incomparably intense. His voice was trembling and his heart was filled with despair.
He had always felt that as long as he didn't work hard, he would definitely be killed by Xu Qing. This thought came from his personality and was deeply rooted. Hence, every time Xu Qing's cultivation level increased, he would feel his heart pounding.
Today, the appearance of the fishbone allowed him to know that what was going to happen was coming.
Although he had used all his strength, he still couldn't keep up with Xu Qing.
It wasn't that he wasn't working hard, but the other party was really walking too quickly.
"Master, I'm already prepared. In the books I've read in my life, all the main characters have their cultivation bases advancing by leaps and bounds. It's very difficult for ordinary people to accompany them for the rest of their lives."
"This further proves that Master is an existence like those protagonists."
"However, I understand that I can't drag you down. I don't ask for anything else but I only hope that Master will give me a quick death on account of my dedication and hard work in these few years."contemporary romance
"If there is a next life, I will surely follow Master once again, serving by your side and witnessing you reach the pinnacle of heaven and earth."
The Diamond Sect's ancestor's face was filled with sorrow. Even at this moment, the gaze he used to look at Xu Qing was still filled with loyalty. This was the only chance he thought he had to save himself…
He understood that he knew too many secrets. If he was Xu Qing, he would also have killing intent. Hence, he tried his best to move Xu Qing and make him put away his killing intent on account of his hard work.
If he became soft-hearted and released him on impulse, it would be perfect.
Xu Qing cast a meaningful glance at the Diamond Sect's ancestor.
He didn't sense the other party's loyalty, but he had seen the Diamond Sect's ancestor's practical actions over the years. They had helped him a lot.
The grudge from back then could be considered resolved.
After all, the iron stick was no longer enough to support his cultivation. Even though he had sacrificially refined it once, the difference in level was huge when compared to the fish bone.
Hence, today, Xu Qing originally planned to undo the other party's seal and let him leave to resolve the karma. As for secrets, he had other methods to guard them from being mentioned.
However, the Diamond Sect's ancestor's words made Xu Qing retract what he was about to say after some thought. A contemplative look appeared in his eyes. He felt that he might be able to give the other party a chance.
While the Diamond Sect's ancestor was nervous, he also secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
He felt that his words had worked. This fiend in front of him was finally touched by him. The hesitation in his eyes was evidence. The other party was weighing his contributions and hard work to see if they could offset death.
