The First Peak's young man's voice was so agitated that even his supernatural power surged into his throat, causing his throat to crack.
His voice was shrill and miserable as it reverberated in the sky.
The dozens of cultivators from both sides who were fighting in the distance heard the roar from the First Peak's young man.
Xu Qing's expression changed as well, and he quickly retreated.
What made him retreat was not only the First Peak's young man's baffling words, but also the dozens of gazes he attracted when he spoke.
These cultivators in the distant sky were like gods in Xu Qing's eyes. Even though they were far away, the auras they emanated from their bodies caused his body to churn, and he spat out blood.
Now, they were all looking at him … Xu Qing did not hesitate at all. The spiritual boat's defenses were all activated at this moment. He even took out many defensive talisman treasures. With a wave of his hand, the snake-necked dragon appeared and enveloped the spiritual boat.
In the next instant, unimaginable and indescribably terrifying pressure descended. Xu Qing's mind immediately buzzed. The snake-necked dragon collapsed, and so did his talisman treasures.
Fortunately, his spiritual boat was extraordinary. It had divinity. Hence, although its defenses had collapsed, the hull was still intact.
Xu Qing's body trembled. Although he spat out two mouthfuls of blood, the spiritual boat's defenses were reformed. As he continued to retreat, he dissolved the pressure from these gazes.
As for the First Peak's prodigy, he also spat out blood at this moment. Three of the life-saving items outside his body were shattered in a row. He spat out seven to eight mouthfuls of blood. Even the blood-colored sword he transformed into was torn into pieces. He even took out an extraordinary shield to resist, but it was still shattered.
His resistance allowed him to avoid the pressure from the gazes in the sky.
Xu Qing's heart still had lingering fear. As he retreated quickly, he looked up at the sky.
In the sky, as the two sides attacked, the world changed colors, rumbled in all directions, and a storm swept up in the sea.
Among these figures, Xu Qing saw the Seventh Peak's peak master. He also saw the six people beside him who were dressed in different colors but had astonishing auras.
As for these people's identities, Xu Qing did not need to guess anything. He already had an answer in his heart.
They should be the peak masters of the Seven Blood Pupils' peaks.
It was the Sea Corpse Clan that could fight against them and not be at a disadvantage.
Xu Qing had seen the Sea Corpses on the Mermaid Island. At that moment, as he scanned the area with a stinging gaze, he saw that the Sea Corpses were all in human form. All of them wore black armor, and there were black flames in their eyes. Corpse poison spread out from their bodies, and their might was monstrous.
In addition, there were some cultivators around the two sides. Although these cultivators' cultivation was relatively weaker, they were still strong. Xu Qing saw the Third Elder and also saw similar cultivators from the Sea Corpse Clan.
This was the limit of what he could see. Xu Qing's eyes were stinging and he could not continue to look. He could only withdraw his gaze. He knew that he could not continue to look, or else his eyes would collapse and his body would not be able to withstand it. The difference between the two sides was too great.
At the same time, a low roar came from the sky. An old man in a red Daoist robe from the Seven Blood Pupils waved his hand, and a golden sword appeared around him. He forced the Sea Corpse Clan members who were fighting with him to retreat, then he charged at Xu Qing and the young man from the First Summit. The old man's face was as red as his robe, and there seemed to be a man made of fire in his body like the sun. He looked terrifying, and his aura was like a rainbow. Thick heat was constantly being released from his body.
Seeing this, the youth from the First Peak became excited and roared loudly.
"Ten thousand grains of water in the vast sea, another day of the Divine Light of the Waning Sun!"
"You evil disciple who doesn't speak human language, hurry up and scram. If you stay here, you will die!"
The old man from the First Peak quickly rushed over and let out a roar. He turned around and swung his sword to fight the Sea Corpses that were blocking him from leaving the battlefield.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides fought further and further away, and they were about to leave the area.
When Xu Qing heard this, his pupils shrank. The daoist ship under him sped up even more. At that moment, they had already put some distance between them.
Not far away, the youth from the First Peak was also anxious. He knew that this was a critical moment. Once his master left, he would be dead. Thus, his face was red and his eyes were bloodshot. He roared at the sky.
"Master, save me! This brat from the Seventh Peak has been chasing me for ten days and ten nights. He won't stop until he kills me. Master, don't go, save me!" Xu Qing did not hesitate. The daoist ship under him buzzed and suddenly dove into the sea.
The old man from the First Peak in the sky was stunned. His face was filled with surprise. He knew very well that ever since this last disciple of his found out that Ancient Emperor Xuan You liked to hide his mysteries in his poems, he had become obsessed. He rarely spoke human language and every sentence he spoke was filled with nonsense.
He remembered that the last time he heard Xu Qing speak human language was three years ago.
Hence, his gaze instantly landed in the direction where Xu Qing was escaping.
Although they were separated by seawater, Xu Qing, who had dove into the sea, still felt his heart rumble under the other party's gaze. His body trembled uncontrollably. At this moment, his entire body seemed to have lost all ability to move. It was as if his entire being was imprisoned, and his life was hanging by a thread.
.
"…" The First Peak's Peak Master was about to speak.
"It's just a fight between children." At this moment, a faint voice came from the sky.
The person who spoke was the Seventh Peak's Peak Master, who was standing on Big Wing and fighting three Sea Corpses alone with ease.
The expression of the First Peak's youth changed.
However, the First Peak's Peak Master's expression remained the same. He did not speak just now, but it was unknown if he had changed the meaning of his words and continued to speak.
"The two of you are messing around. Look at the situation now, and you're still fighting among yourselves!"
As he spoke, he threw out a golden talisman with a wave of his hand. This talisman looked like a talisman treasure, but it gave off a feeling that it was more than a hundred times more powerful. At this moment, it went straight to the sea where Xu Qing had dove into.
When it got close, the talisman split into two. One instantly dove into the sea and caught up with Xu Qing. It broke through the protection of his magical boat and stuck to his body. The other one ignored the First Peak's panic and directly slapped his face.
In an instant, the talisman fell at the same time. Xu Qing and the First Peak's bodies shook. The next moment, the talisman dissipated, forming a golden pattern that was branded on their skin.
If one looked carefully, these brands seemed to be of the same origin.
"This is a Life Linking Talisman. It's fine if you're injured, but as long as one of you dies, the other's soul will also scatter. If you want to kill me, then kill me. If you don't want to kill me, then get the hell back to the sect immediately.
The First Peak's Peak's elder roared, and a monstrous wave swept up Xu Qing and the First Peak's youth, pushing them far away with a rumble. Then, with a flash, he rushed into the midst of the Sea Corpses. With a sweep of his sword, he directly chopped off half of a Sea Corpses' leg.
The Sea Corpses were still moving, but when the Sword Qi exploded, the lower half of their body instantly collapsed.
After doing all this, he was blocked by a Sea Corpses of the same Realm as him. The two groups of people fought in the sky and moved further and further away.
On the surface of the sea, as the waves rose and fell, Xu Qing floated up with an ugly expression. He raised his hand and looked at the brand that had appeared on his arm.
The brand wasn't just formed on his arm, it was on his entire body.
Not far away, the First Peak's youth was the same. However, unlike Xu Qing, his expression wasn't ugly. Instead, he looked like he was relieved. His body flickered and he took out a half-broken sword. He sat on it and moved to the side of Xu Qing's magical boat.
Xu Qing looked at him coldly and suddenly spoke.
"What's your name?"
The First Peak's youth glanced at Xu Qing and said indifferently, "I've lived a life of drunken stupor. I've walked to the end of the world with a mask covering my face."
Xu Qing couldn't hold back the killing intent in his heart. He raised his right hand and waved it. Suddenly, a dagger formed by black flames appeared and shot toward the youth.
The youth's heart jumped, but he believed in his Master. Thus, he resisted the urge to dodge and allowed the dagger to reach his neck. Just as it was about to cut open his neck, Xu Qing felt a strong sense of danger.
This made Xu Qing fall silent. He was certain that this Life-linking Talisman was indeed shocking.
Under the effect of this Life-linking Talisman, he indeed couldn't kill the youth. As for crippling the youth or crippling his cultivation base, it was meaningless.
Moreover, once he went too far, with the youth's ruthlessness, it wasn't impossible for him to commit suicide.
This person's combat strength was extraordinary. If he continued, it would be troublesome. After weighing the pros and cons, Xu Qing temporarily suppressed his killing intent. He looked coldly at the First Peak's youth, put away the dagger, and returned to his magical boat.
Following Xu Qing's departure, the young man's heart recovered a little from his previous trembling. At that moment, he was also incomparably terrified, and the feeling of a life and death crisis was just as intense.
The King Kong Sect's ancestor sucked in a deep breath. He looked at the Seven Blood Pupils Peak Master who was walking away and sighed in his heart.
"Why didn't I think of this?!
It's actually possible!!! "
As for Xu Qing, after returning to the magical boat, he sat down cross-legged and controlled the silky shadows to cover his body, causing them to emit a foreign substance and corrode his body.
This was the only way Xu Qing could think of to erase the Life-linking Talisman.
Soon, he narrowed his eyes. Under the cover and corrosion of the shadows, the Life-linking Talisman dimmed a little. However, the process was somewhat slow.
But at least it was effective.
Therefore, Xu Qing ignored the First Peak's youth. At this moment, he slowly sharpened the talisman, took out a bamboo scroll, grabbed a black metal skewer, and began to engrave something on it.
As he engraved, the King Kong Sect's ancestor's eyes widened.
He saw the name on the bamboo scroll.
In particular, the five words "King Kong Sect's ancestor" at the top made him shudder. He felt that Xu Qing was holding a grudge.
What made him tremble the most was that although his name was crossed out, it was different from the other names. Others had three strokes, but his name only had one stroke, and it was very faint.
"Could it be that he's trying to kill me?!"
The King Kong Sect's ancestor was terrified. He felt that he had to work hard to become more useful as soon as possible so that he could cross out more strokes on his name.
At the same time, he also saw the new name that Xu Qing had written.
'Idiot.'
The King Kong Sect's ancestor stole a glance at the First Peak's youth. 'I agree.'
At this moment, the First Peak's youth heaved a long sigh of relief. He thought to himself, 'If I didn't run into my master, I would've lost my life this time.'
Also, when he saw Seventh Master speaking up for Xu Qing, he could not help but have some guesses. Then, he noticed Xu Qing's actions, and a strong sense of curiosity rose in him.
However, he did not know much about poetry. Usually, he would just make up a few lines. This time, there were many things he wanted to ask, so he did not know how to phrase them.
After a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence.
"Listening to the sound of the night rain without sleep, is the immortal in the sky your father?"
Xu Qing ignored the First Peak's youth who had a screw loose. After engraving the word 'idiot', he put the bamboo scroll into his pocket and activated the magical boat's defenses, instantly isolating the youth's figure outside.
Then, he looked up and was about to make a hand seal to leave this place. However, at this moment … A shrill cry came from the distant horizon.
Xu Qing instantly looked up and saw that in the direction where the Seven Blood Pupils and the Sea Corpse Tribe left, there was a corpse of a Golden Core Sea Corpse Tribe cultivator with only half of his body left. It suddenly fell from the sky and crashed into the sea. At the same time, it caused the sea to roar, and the corpse sank as well.
Xu Qing's eyes focused.
'I wrote it too late yesterday, and I woke up late today … There'll be more updates.
I haven't edited it since I finished writing it yesterday. I'll edit it and post it.
'I'm still in a daze … How did I sleep until now …'
