At the same time, not far away from the Seven Blood Pupils, near the edge of the Forbidden Sea, an abandoned teleportation formation suddenly shone. A wisp of fog came out of the formation and quickly condensed into a fog figure.
After walking out of the teleportation formation, he quickly destroyed the formation. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief and laugh at the sky.
"In the end, your grandfather still managed to escape!"
As the fog figure condensed, it slowly turned into the appearance of a middle-aged man. At this moment, there was an unprecedented look of pride on his face.
In truth, he had intentionally allowed himself to be captured by Xu Qing so that he could use the teleportation formation and the secret technique his employer had given him to escape.
Everything went smoothly.
"I didn't waste much time. Next, I have to go and make a deal with my employer. I have already memorized the second half of the Extreme Yin Jiao Pill's recipe. Now, only I know that if they don't give me what they promised me, they can forget about getting the second half of the pill recipe.
The middle-aged cultivator sneered and quickly left.
Under the moonlight, he sped through the wilderness. However, he did not notice that an eye had opened in his shadow.
Even though his body was strange, there was still a shadow. As long as there was a shadow, there would be Xu Qing's shadow.
Xu Qing had deliberately let him go.
As for the other party's claim that he wanted to see the Sixth Master, Xu Qing did not believe it. Since the other party refused to say anything, Xu Qing might as well let him think that it was safe. This way, he could personally bring him to see the real culprit!
As for the range of the shadow eye, Xu Qing had already sensed it when he was searching for the Hundred Ghosts Parade on the sea. It covered a huge area. Even now, it was still within his perception. Although it was a little blurry, it did not affect him.
Moreover, his perception of the direction was enough.
Xu Qing opened his eyes and adjusted the formation. He activated the teleportation formation in the direction of his perception. As for the other teleportation formation being destroyed, it did not matter. Now that he knew the direction, there would be other teleportation formations nearby.
In the next instant, Xu Qing's figure disappeared.
At this moment, in the coastal area of the Southern Phoenix Continent, the middle-aged cultivator made of fog was moving at an extremely fast speed. He took advantage of the night to rush forward. During this time, he looked back many times and spread out his perception to scan his surroundings.
Even though he was certain that no one was following him, he was still very cautious. However, he did not understand the strangeness of the shadow. Therefore, he did not know that there was an eye in his shadow.
On the whole, however, this Nether Race cultivator was very vigilant, and he did not act immediately.
In the blink of an eye, he was on his way to the place where he was supposed to meet up with his employer. Instead, he spent the entire night circling around the area. Finally, he arrived at a seaside and looked at a merchant ship docked in the distance.
"Come here, I've already gotten what you want.
Then, he waited quietly and observed his surroundings closely. However, he did not see the eyes in the figure squinting and observing him.
After a while, everything returned to normal. The Nefarious Clan cultivator turned around and headed in a different direction. Everything that had happened just now had been a ruse. He wanted to see if it was really safe.
At this moment, he was finally at ease, and a smug look appeared on his face. In the darkness of dawn, he jumped in without any hesitation.
In the next instant, a swordfish that was swimming in the sea suddenly trembled and changed its direction. The shadow's eye was a parasite on the Specter Race's main body. Therefore, even though the Specter Race had a physical body, the shadow's eye still existed.
The level of the Specter Race also depended on the level of the Specter Race. The shadow's level of strangeness was obviously much higher than that of the Specter Race. It could even be said that it was the nemesis of the Specter Race. At the same time, the shadow's emotions were slightly fluctuating.
It seemed to have realized that it was more compatible with the Specter Race. If it had not been Xu Qing but a member of the Specter Race, the shadow suddenly interrupted its thoughts and felt a sense of disgust.
It felt that the Specter Race was not worthy of being compared to it, let alone being compared to Devil Xu. The Specter Race was just its food. How could it have the thought of parasitizing its food?
This thought made the shadow feel humiliated. At the same time, it was also a little frightened as it recalled its experience of being tortured by Devil Xu.
Therefore, it pulled itself together and worked even harder to observe Xu Qing and send out guidance to him.
The Specter Race cultivator was unaware of all this.
Just like this, time passed. The swordfish that he was a parasite on swam rapidly in the sea and made a big circle. During this time, he changed his host seven or eight sea beasts. Finally, on the night of the second day, he was a parasite on a starfish.
As the waves rose and fell, the starfish was swept to a black beach that could be considered as the territory of the Seven Blood-pupils.
The seawater dissipated, leaving behind black foam all over the ground. The moon was bright in the sky, and the moonlight fell on the foam, emitting a faint light. The surroundings were quiet.
The starfish that was a parasite of the Specter Race was lying on the beach, motionless.
Time passed bit by bit, and the night came and slowly flowed away. A new day
The dawn of the next day was dark. Before the moon left and the sun returned to its original position, it was approaching silently.
At this moment, in the darkness of the dawn, a few figures walked over from the shadows in the distance.
There were a total of four figures.
They were all wearing black Taoist robes that covered their entire bodies and heads. Their wide Taoist robes also hid their bodies, so it was impossible to tell whether they were human or not. Therefore, it was impossible to tell their specific genders.
At the same time, there were no fluctuations of cultivation on these four figures. Obviously, they were very well-hidden. There was also a vague sense of haziness around these four figures.
This was a method to shield the fluctuations of a formation and prevent Divine Senses from locking onto them. It did not seem to be formed by a magic weapon. Instead, it was more like an innate ability of the Specter Race.
At this moment, these four figures were walking toward the beach step by step.
They slowly approached until they stopped next to the starfish that the Specter Race cultivator was a parasite of.
The moment they stopped, the figure in the front did not move, but the three figures behind him quickly spread out. Each of them took out a disk and placed it on the ground, as if they were investigating.
In just a few breaths of time, the investigation was over. The three figures turned around and stood respectfully at their respective disks.
The sea breeze blew and spread in all directions, bringing with it the smell of seawater. It also swept up the seawater and attacked the shore. The wind also fell on the robes of the figure standing next to the starfish, causing them to flutter.
At the same time, she lifted the hood that covered her head slightly, revealing a strand of blue hair!
As the strand of hair fluttered in the wind, the figure lowered her head and spoke in a clear voice.
"You're late."
As she spoke, the starfish on the ground responded in a low voice.
"I was almost killed in the Purple Soil. You didn't tell me that I would encounter such a perverted person during this mission. That guy is even stranger than me!"
"This is also beyond our expectations, but we will compensate you in the future. In that case, give me your rewards from the mission."
As the voice rang out, the wind became stronger at this moment, blowing away the hood that had already been lifted, revealing a beautiful face.
It was a delicate and delicate face.
Her long blue hair fluttered in the wind, her blue eyes were bright, and her fair skin had a soft glow that was like jade. It was the princess of the Starfish Race who had come to visit the Seven Blood Pupils!
This princess had given Xu Qing a conch when she first met him at Port 176. After that, when he was in the Seven Blood Pupils, she had visited Xu Qing many times to ask about him.
There was no scheming in Zhen Man's eyes, only admiration for Xu Qing.
She had also asked many questions, but if one looked at those questions together, they would definitely be able to see that hidden in those questions were more about Xu Qing's personality and habits.
When one grasped a person's habits and personality, they could make some plans to deal with that person. Obviously, she had been eyeing Xu Qing for a long time and was making preparations for the future.
"Hey, there's no hurry. You have secretly captured so many prodigies of various races over the years, and there should be a lot of them from the Seven Blood Pupils. Now, there should be enough main ingredients. You have to change the reward you promised me. I also want a Taiyin Jiaojiao Pill!
The young girl took a deep look at the starfish on the ground. At this moment, another black-robed starfish beside her suddenly spoke in a low voice.
"Young Master, it's almost time. If we delay any longer, the elders' authority is limited, and they won't be able to continue shielding us. The Seven Blood Pupils will investigate."
"Your reward will only be given when you return to the clan. Since you're worried, you can come back to the Starfish Race with me."
The young girl did not hesitate. After she finished speaking, she raised her right hand and was about to pick up the starfish that was the host of the Serene Race cultivator.
However, at this moment …
An icy voice filled with murderous intent echoed in the surroundings.
"So it's you!
As soon as this voice sounded, the starfish on the ground trembled and immediately self-destructed without hesitation, choosing to commit suicide.
At the same time, the young girl from the Starfish Race's expression changed and she quickly retreated. The other three Starfish Race cultivators also trembled and released their cultivation to protect the young girl as she retreated.
However, it was too late. In the next instant, a figure rushed over from the distance like a bolt of lightning. This figure no longer hid his appearance and no longer had the appearance of a middle-aged man. Instead, he had transformed into Xu Qing's original body.
It was as if there was a burning continent in his body, and a sea of fire surged into the sky. The dark dawn was illuminated by the sea of fire in Xu Qing's body, and it suddenly brightened up.
The murderous intent in his eyes was monstrous.
Under his feet was a giant Azure Dragon, which was also ferocious and filled with hatred. That was the continuation of Xu Qing's emotions. Behind him was a giant Golden Crow that looked up at the sky and let out a cry. Its black tail flames spread out in all directions, as if a demon god had descended.
At this moment, Xu Qing no longer held back. The murderous intent that had been suppressed in his heart all this time erupted!
His aura was earth-shattering as he charged toward the four Starfish Race cultivators.
"Xu Qing!" The sea princess shouted.
The eyes of the Starfish Race princess shrank and her expression changed. She wanted to retreat, but it was too late. Xu Qing's figure closed in in an instant. He raised his right hand and slapped the ground.
Heaven and earth roared, the surroundings trembled, and the ground exploded.
A giant pit was formed, and a violent aura was released. The four Starfish Race cultivators all coughed out blood.
There was even one who blocked in front of Xu Qing. Under Xu Qing's palm, his body collapsed into pieces and his body and soul were destroyed. He was sucked over by the Golden Crow.
His soul was also taken away by Xu Qing and suppressed in his Dharma aperture. He didn't try to break free but kept burning.
The other three people's minds were shaken and their expressions changed greatly.
Then, without any hesitation, the four of them unleashed their cultivation. One of them had three flames, and the other three had two flames!
The one with three flames was the princess, and the ones with two flames were the three people beside her.
However, their cultivation was completely useless at this moment. Even the life fires in their bodies were shaking, as if they couldn't hold on for much longer. The unparalleled murderous intent from Xu Qing was like a storm that carried endless anger as it rained down on them.
