Chapter 406 - 406 Master, Save Me (2)

406 Master, Save Me (2)

As Xu Qing disappeared, none of the Golden Core cultivators in the surroundings scanned their surroundings or chased after him. All the greed and killing intent on their faces disappeared at this instant. What was even more astonishing was that as their expressions dissipated, the figures of these people slowly blurred.

A moment later, all of them seemed to have been erased as they disappeared from the spot.

It was peaceful once again. Another hour passed and a mountain rock on the ground suddenly distorted, transforming into an old man with a pockmarked face in a green Daoist robe. This old man carefully checked his surroundings and his eyes revealed a deep glint.

“Although it’s an illusion, every attack earlier was real. Looking at Xu Qing’s performance, could it be that he really doesn’t have a Dao Protector following him?”

“But without a Dao Protector, how dare he brazenly head out?”

“However, he did disguise himself. If I didn’t know his exact destination, it would be very difficult to lock onto him.”

As he pondered, the old man’s body swayed and he disappeared without a trace.

At the same time, on the wasteland that was some distance away, Xu Qing’s figure appeared. As soon as he appeared, he spat out a mouthful of blood and quickly took out a jade slip to transmit his voice to the sect.

However, the instant he took out the jade slip, the ground suddenly caved in, transforming into a ghastly mouth that ruthlessly devoured him.

Xu Qing’s expression changed. When he quickly rose into the air, a rumbling sound rang out from the ground. That huge mouth was the mouth of a giant. When the giant stood up, it was easily a thousand feet tall. It lifted its large hand and grabbed at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing quickly fled but the void behind him fluctuated. The pockmarked old man took a step forward and with a wave of his hand, five Heavenly Palaces behind him manifested, directly forming a suppressive force that blasted onto Xu Qing.

Xu Qing’s body trembled and blood gushed out of his mouth. As the protective barrier around his body shook violently, he quickly took out a disorder teleportation talisman and was about to crush it.

However, at the next instant, a calm voice rang out from behind him.

“Seal!”

As soon as this word was spoken, a huge golden array formation appeared in the sky and ruthlessly pressed to the ground.

Xu Qing’s teleportation failed and his body was suppressed by this great force, unable to rise into the air.

His face was pale as he lifted his head and saw a boy sitting on the golden array formation.

This boy was clothed in a red robe. The five Heavenly Palaces above his head emitted astonishing might, causing the array formation to continuously press to the ground. It also caused Xu Qing’s entire body to emit cracking sounds from the suppression. The protection of the Infinite Crown also caved in and his body continued to fall.

This lasted until Xu Qing’s body was pressed on the ground loudly.

At the next instant, countless black hair rose from the ground around him, rapidly wrapping around him. A corrosive power spread from them and began to invade his Infinite Crown’s barrier.

“Looks like there are really no Dao Protectors.”

“You guys are too worried. So what if he has Dao Protectors? We’re only here with clones. At most, our clones will be destroyed, what should we be afraid of?”

“Forget it. Regardless of whether there are or not, we need to complete this mission. Even if the Seven Blood Eyes is fishing, we also are prepared.”

While Xu Qing’s barrier was rapidly corroding, the boy, the green-robed old man, and the ten-thousand-foot-tall giant communicated.

After that, they each performed a series of hand seals. Immediately, vast power erupted from their bodies, forming an extermination force that landed on Xu Qing.

Seeing that danger was approaching, a voice filled with dissatisfaction rang out in all directions.

“There are only so few people here, and they’re all clones. How boring!”

The moment the voice rang out, Old Master Seventh’s figure walked out of the void in front of Xu Qing.

He flicked his sleeve and the hair around Xu Qing turned into ashes. After that, he swept his gaze over, landing on the ten-thousand-foot-tall giant. The expression of the giant changed and its body shook. It actually collapsed without even being able to put up the slightest resistance.

Old Master Seventh then looked at the pockmarked old man. This old man’s entire body trembled violently and in the blink of an eye, he turned into ashes under Old Master Seventh’s gaze.

As for the boy, his eyes were also wide open. After Old Master Seventh’s gaze swept over him, his body exploded loudly, turning into a rain of blood.

Everything was destroyed under Old Master Seventh’s gaze.

Xu Qing’s expression was no longer as gloomy as before. Instead, it returned to normal and the injuries on his body instantly recovered. When he lifted his head and looked at the sky, Old Master Seventh’s voice rang out in his ears.

“It’s understandable. After all, no one is stupid. However, even if they only send their clones, can they get away with it?”

Old Master Seventh calmly spoke. He lifted his right hand and grabbed. Immediately, the void where the giant had collapsed distorted. Time seemed to be flowing backward and countless pieces of flesh and blood flew up, transforming into the giant’s figure again. Its eyes revealed horror and disbelief.

“You…”

Before it could finish speaking, Old Master Seventh raised his hand and slashed at it!

With this slash, the sound of a thread snapping rang out. At the next instant, a faintly discernible thread appeared above the head of the giant. This thread continued to break, spreading into the void like it was chasing after the origin.

Finally, amidst the disbelief and intense horror of the giant, a mournful cry rang out from the void.

At the next moment, the giant’s body withered and it spat out a mouthful of blood. It let out an extremely miserable cry as its body collapsed again, dissipating into pieces.

However, this time, its true body and soul that were hidden somewhere were also taken away by Old Master Seventh with a secret art.

This scene caused Xu Qing’s eyes to widen. He didn’t know what cultivation level would the real body have if even their clones had five Heavenly Palaces. He felt like they would at least be a Nascent Soul cultivator.

As Xu Qing’s mind stirred, Old Master Seventh waved his hand at the place where the pockmarked old man had disappeared. The same scene appeared again.

The expression of the green-robed old man who had reformed completely changed and he let out a scream.

“Old Master Seventh, spare my life. I…” Before he could finish speaking, Old Master Seventh waved his hand again and the world seemed to collapse. Xu Qing gasped as he looked at the dissipating soul and probed.

“Master, can you leave behind the souls so that I can suppress them in my magic apertures?”

“If you want to be a hunter, you have to hunt by yourself. I’m not responsible for giving you the prey. I’m only responsible for giving you weapons and abilities to hunt.”

Old Master Seventh calmly spoke and clenched his raised hand. Immediately, a thread appeared above the green-robed old man’s head and broke into nothingness inch by inch. Finally, terrified screams filled with bitterness and disbelief rang out. The old man’s main body and clone collapsed together and were taken away by Old Master Seventh.

After doing this, Old Master Seventh flicked his sleeve. The blood pool left by the boy flowed back and the boy’s figure was revealed. His expression was filled with extreme horror.

“How can a Spirit Repository be so powerful that it can actually track down the main body? You… What exactly is your cultivation level?!”

As he spoke, he immediately retreated. He waved his hands and countless array formations shone. When he fled far away, Old Master Seventh waved his hand. Immediately, the main body of the child, which was hidden in an unknown place, collapsed and shattered. This clone also rapidly disappeared, about to be taken away by Old Master Seventh.

Xu Qing, who was at the side, suddenly recalled what the captain had said in the immortal pool about his master’s soft-heartedness. Hence, he imitated the captain and spoke aggrievedly.

“Master, my magic ship exploded twice and I used two of my disorder teleportation talismans.”

Old Master Seventh glanced at Xu Qing with a spurious smile and nodded.

“In that case, I have to make it up for you.” As he spoke, he waved his hand and grabbed. Immediately, the clone that had mostly dissipated trembled and a wisp of remnant soul was extracted.

Old Master Seventh grabbed it and squeezed it ruthlessly, transforming it into 59 portions of soul power. He then patted Xu Qing’s body.

Xu Qing’s entire body trembled. Each of these 59 portions of soul power was comparable to the soul of a Heavenly Palace Golden Core. At this moment, they were scattered in his dozens of magic apertures, causing the fire in them to instantly become even more intense.
