752 Familiarity

As Xu Qing stood up, the surrounding anomalous substances dispersed outward. His body, towering over ten feet tall, emanated an aura of mystery within the mist.

With the extraordinary fluctuations emanating from his body, the mist-like anomalous substances seemed to bow down before him as they churned and swirled.

In fact, Xu Qing could sense that he could use his own strength to trigger the eruption of the anomalous substances here to some extent.

After the Immortal Forbidden G.o.d perished, everything here was gradually coming under his control.

“Unfortunately, my current cultivation is not sufficient to absorb too much of the anomalous substances in this place,” Xu Qing sighed inwardly, suppressing his desire.

He could actually still absorb it but there was no time. If he continued to absorb, he would definitely be exposed.

Another reason that led Xu Qing to give up on absorbing the anomalous substances was the fact that the G.o.d’s finger in D132 was showing signs of restlessness.

“The purple crystal is too weak to fully seal the G.o.d’s finger. Once the G.o.d’s finger absorbs the anomalous substances here, It will likely break free from my body soon…”

Xu Qing sighed inwardly, feeling that the purple crystal was somewhat useless.

While Xu Qing was sighing with emotion, the captain glanced at Xu Qing’s ten-foot-tall body and compared it to his own, raising an eyebrow.

Xu Qing understood his meaning. With booming sounds, he shrank from his towering height of ten feet and, in the blink of an eye, transformed into his normal size. He immediately felt a difference in his body.

Before this, Xu Qing knew that his body was extraordinary, but he couldn’t control the golden threads within his body, making it difficult for him to fully manifest his divine physique.

Now, he realized that he could control some of it and could freely transform to a height of ten feet.

The normal body and the transformed body of ten feet height were two different states, and the latter allowed Xu Qing to unleash even stronger power.

Seeing that Xu Qing had transformed into an ordinary person, the captain was satisfied. Just now, after he noticed that Xu Qing had become larger, he almost couldn’t resist undoing another seal to become larger.

He was about to speak when a deafening roar echoed through the sky. More cracks collapsed, and a large white net appeared in the sky.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that there were many human army cultivators on the ropes of the large net.

This net was set up by them outside the sky and was still expanding as they continued their efforts.

Immediately after, the fourth wave of human troops descended from the distant entrance.

The leader wasn’t the Seventh Prince but the generals of the three palaces.

The moment they descended, a large number of cultivators from the Imperial Capital Army behind them spread out. As they cleared out the anomalous substances, they repaired the crack in the sky and worked together from the inside out to stabilize the realm.

Clearly, this was also the reason why the human army arrived a little late.

At the same time, the command sword on Xu Qing and the captain’s bodies also vibrated as the cracks in the sky were repaired and the human race’s safe zone was restored.

A decree was issued.

It required the first three groups of human cultivators leave this place within two hours.

Two hours later, the Immortal Forbidden would be transformed into a special area. Unless one held an exclusive token, they couldn’t take half a step into it.

At the same time, everyone was informed that anyone who stayed behind without authorization would be dealt with for defying the order.

“According to Master’s previous judgment, this Seventh Prince has successfully completed the Human Emperor’s instructions. At this moment, everything here can be regarded as his reward.”

The captain smirked and swept his gaze around, a hint of madness gleaming in his eyes, as he spoke in a low, intense tone.

“Junior Brother, you can leave first. I’ll stay here for a while.”

Xu Qing glanced at the captain and noticed the madness in his eyes. He knew that it would be difficult to persuade his senior brother, who had such a look in his eyes.

However, staying here would pose greater risks than benefits. After all, the pa.s.sage out was controlled by the Seventh Prince. If something were to go wrong in this Immortal Forbidden, it would be difficult to escape.

Xu Qing thought about it and nodded.

“Alright, then I’ll leave first. Master must be waiting for me outside after obtaining the best item. I’ll go and share it with him. Don’t worry, Eldest Senior Brother, you can stay here and have fun.”

Xu Qing started walking away..

The captain was stunned and quickly ran to Xu Qing’s side.

Xu Qing was surprised.

“Eldest Senior Brother, I’m returning to the campsite. What are you doing?”

The captain laughed and put his arm around Xu Qing’s shoulder.

“I’ve changed my mind. That old man is too cunning, and I’m worried that you’re not good at communicating with him. Forget it, forget it. For the sake of my junior brother, I won’t covet the treasures here!”

Xu Qing nodded and looked into the captain’s eyes.

The captain blinked with a sincere expression. After that, he urged.

Just like that, the two of them sped all the way. An hour later, both of them deliberately infected themselves with some anomalous substances to conceal themselves and returned to the safe zone established by the human army.

Although there were magic artifacts here that could expel anomalous substances, the invasion of anomalous substances was still serious. Many disintegrated and mutated flesh could be seen on the ground.

Clearly, the descent of the Crimson G.o.ddess and the struggle of the Immortal Forbidden G.o.d had an impact on this place as well. Basically, every cultivator who survived was covered in anomalous substances and could only suppress it for now. They had to leave this environment before they could expel it further.

At that moment, many people were rising into the air and flying toward the exit.

Xu Qing swept his gaze across the surroundings. He didn’t know many people and didn’t see Qing Qiu or Kong Xianglong. Hence, he took out his command sword and transmitted his voice to ask.

He learned that Qing Qiu had left after seven days, and Kong Xianglong had just left not long ago.

After receiving Xu Qing’s voice transmission, Kong Xianglong told him to wait outside.

Seeing that everything was fine, Xu Qing heaved a sigh of relief inwardly.

Previously, because of their master, it wasn’t good for them to tell others and they couldn’t let anyone follow them. After all, at that time, Xu Qing’s location was actually even more dangerous.

Hence, Xu Qing and the captain secretly left, having no time to care about Kong Xianglong and Qing Qiu. However, he had privately told them that there would be a drastic change here and told them to be more careful.

Clearly, Qing Qiu was obedient. Although Kong Xianglong didn’t leave so early, from the looks of it, he was still safe.

Hence, Xu Qing and the captain looked at each other. Determination appeared in their eyes as they headed straight for the sky.

They moved extremely fast. As they continued to rise into the air, the Immortal Forbidden continued to shrink in their eyes.

It was only when they were in the sky that Xu Qing finally saw the palm print of the Crimson G.o.ddess left behind in the distant land with his own eyes. He also saw the huge ravine where the Immortal Forbidden G.o.d’s aura was located in the western region.

Even from a high alt.i.tude, the palm print was extremely clear and emitted waves of terrifying might. One could imagine how terrifying the power of the Crimson G.o.ddess was.

Xu Qing’s gaze swept over and lingering fear rose in his heart. The captain, who was at the side, spoke in a low voice.

“After the Crimson G.o.ddess successfully devours the G.o.d, although She will fall into a deep sleep, once She finishes digesting and wakes up, She will definitely be even more terrifying. I wonder if the Human Emperor has any follow-up arrangements.”

Xu Qing had thought of this question before but he didn’t have an answer.

The two of them retracted their gazes and flew into the entrance in the sky in silence. They then left the Immortal Forbidden, arriving at the location of the shattered array formation in the depths of the Prison Department.

From here, they sped all the way and pa.s.sed by dozens of large nets formed by array formations. The function of these large nets was to isolate the anomalous substances here.

The two of them pa.s.sed through successfully and gradually saw the exit of the deep pit above their heads. They also saw the pitch-black night sky.

At that moment, it was night in the external world.

Ten breaths later, their figures finally flew out of the deep pit and into the external world.

The cool wind blew on the two of them with a hint of freshness, lifting their long hair and fluttering the corners of their clothes.

Compared to the sealed Immortal Forbidden, this wind that blew at one’s face would instinctively refresh one’s mind.

The moon in the sky wasn’t red either.

This caused Xu Qing and the captain to subconsciously heave a sigh of relief.

The military camps in the distance had disappeared!

There were tens of millions of troops from the Imperial City. It was impossible for all of them to enter the Immortal Forbidden. Moreover, on their way back, Xu Qing and the others saw at most a million Imperial City troops who had entered the Immortal Forbidden.

Just as Xu Qing was feeling puzzled, he saw Kong Xianglong.

Kong Xianglong was originally sitting cross-legged at the edge of the deep pit and waiting for Xu Qing. When he saw Xu Qing, he got up and quickly approached.

The anomalous substances on his body weren’t too dense and were dissipating. Clearly, after he exited, he used some methods to quickly remove the anomalous substances.

After he got close and sensed Xu Qing’s gaze on the military camp’s location, Kong Xianglong explained.

“They’ve all left. I heard that they left five days ago and used the county capital’s teleportation array to go to the front line.”

“I only found out after I came out. There should be some major movements at the front line… This is because the Seventh Prince also teleported away an hour ago. This time, none of the cultivators in Fenghai County were recruited.”

Xu Qing’s gaze froze. He thought of his master’s judgment. Everything the Human Emperor did was for this war. Now that the overt plan against the Crimson G.o.ddess had just been completed, the army moved to the front line.

“Something major is about to happen!” Xu Qing took a deep breath and looked at the captain. At that moment, the captain was also looking at him.

The two of them had the same thought in their minds.

That was, the human race’s regional war artifact should be revealed soon.

‘It should all be clear soon.’ The captain transmitted his voice.

Just as Xu Qing was in deep thought, Kong Xianglong sighed softly.

“Xu Qing, I feel that there are many things in this matter that I can’t figure out. If you guess some things, remember to tell me.”

After saying that, Kong Xianglong took out two pill bottles and handed them to Xu Qing and the captain.

“These are plain pills. Although the opening of the Immortal Forbidden was arranged layer by layer, many anomalous substances still spread out. In addition, most of the people who returned were covered by dense anomalous substances, so the plain pills were sold out. It’s very difficult to buy them.”

“These are some of my previous stock.”

The captain chuckled and took it. After opening it, he swallowed the two plain pills inside.

Medicinal fragrance spread out and permeated the surroundings, causing the anomalous substances here to dissipate a little.

Xu Qing took a sniff at the side and felt a sense of familiarity. It seemed like a mixture of medicinal aroma with a subtle hint of something else. It felt vaguely familiar to him, so he reached out and took a closer whiff.

This plain pill was the result of the Deputy Governor’s improvement on the white pills. Its effect was twice that of white pills. benefiting the human race. It was a great merit of Fenghai County.

However, it was unfortunate that due to the scarcity of raw materials and the difficulty of refining, these pills couldn’t be popularized throughout the entire county. They could only be prioritized for distribution within the county capital.

But over the years, it benefited a large number of people, especially in terms of price, which was even lower than that of the white pills, making it affordable for ordinary people as well.

Although he didn’t need it himself, there were some matters that were his own secret. So, after accepting the pill, Xu Qing expressed his grat.i.tude and also informed Kong Xianglong about the speculation of their master.

Previously, there were variables and many things couldn’t be said. Now that everything was over, Kong Xianglong had the qualifications to know the truth.

Upon hearing Xu Qing’s words, Kong Xianglong’s body trembled visibly. His breathing became slightly hurried and his eyes turned bloodshot. He clenched and unclenched his fists a few times.

Clearly, he recalled the Palace Master’s death and wanted to say something, but he ultimately fell silent.

After a long time, he relaxed his fists and spoke hoa.r.s.ely.

“I hope that our human race will win!”

Kong Xianglong’s expression turned melancholic as he waved his hand to Xu Qing and walked away. His departing figure seemed desolate, despite his young age, carrying an air of weariness.

“Kong Xianglong is quite a character!”

The captain looked at Kong Xianglong’s departing figure and spoke softly.
