Time passed.
Five days passed.
It had been eight days since the crimson moon appeared in the sky.

In these eight days, the crimson at the end of the sky had turned into the shape of a crescent moon. There were also a large number of light ribbons that were as viscous as blood that continued to spread.
If the entire sky was a huge curtain, then in just a few days, the red color had already spread to twenty to thirty percent of the area.
Based on this speed, the entire sky would be completely red in about a year.
That would be the day of the crimson moon's arrival, and also the moment when the bell of death tolled for all living beings in the Jiyue Domain.
The countdown had already begun.
There was no need to suppress the final madness that came from living beings before their deaths, so it was fully released.
Killings continued to occur.
It was the same between cultivators, and it was the same between mortals.
The strong bullied the weak, the weak bullied the even weaker, and the even weaker resisted with all their might. In the midst of the ferocious roars, there were desperate screams.
The screams before death turned the world into hell, where demons ran rampant.
Green Sand Desert. It was the same here.
In these eight days, all of the major powers had gone crazy. Kill your way in and be killed. That had become the new rule.
Clans fell apart one by one, and the mortal cities became places for cultivators to vent their despair.
Xu Ying's medicine store was also a target.
In these eight days, more than hundreds of crazy people came to wreak havoc. They wanted to indiscriminately send their pain to others.
It seemed that seeing others suffer more pain with their own eyes would make them seek the ultimate happiness at the end of their lives.
However, they did not know that in the entire Green Sand Desert, there was a place that was more dangerous than the Crimson Moon Temple here. Therefore, all the demons that entered this earth city experienced varying degrees of change the moment they stepped in.
Some disappeared directly.
Some of them dispersed their madness and smiled again, happily becoming residents of this earthen city.
In the backyard of the medicine store in the earth city, the Crown Prince had another hobby, and Ning Yan had another job, which was to raise chicks.
In the short span of eight days, there were more than twenty little chicks in the backyard, trembling as they ate. They didn't dare to flee, and would often hide in the corners, their eyes filled with intense fear.
He felt that mopping the floor every day was already very tiring for him. Now that he had another job to do, he was very displeased with these little chicks. At this moment, he kicked one of them away and spat at them.
The little chick that was kicked into the air revealed anger in his eyes and let out clucking sounds. However, there was nothing he could do. Even though he was at the great circle of the Nascent Soul stage and his Master was the strongest person in the Bitter Life Mountain Range, he was still just a little chick.
Thinking back to what he had gone through, Little Chicky's heart was filled with grief and indignation. He hadn't come here to vent his frustrations, but rather, to investigate this mysterious medicine store under the orders of his Master. At the same time, he wanted to find out if Li Youfei was really here.
Never could he have imagined that as soon as he entered Earthen City, he would lose his consciousness, and then appear as a little chick.
This caused him to be incomparably terrified. However, in his heart, his Master was like the Heavens. Therefore, he still felt that as long as his Master appeared, he would definitely have a way to save him.
"Once Master realizes that I didn't report back on time, he will definitely know that something happened to me. This medicine store may be mysterious, but as long as Master shows up, they will all die. After all, Master has the Red Moon Temple behind him!
"Especially this kid. I'm going to kill him with my own hands!"
Even as the little chicken gritted its teeth, Ning Yan kicked another one away and sighed.
"I wonder how boss Xu Qing is doing.
"Ling 'er cries every day, and Chen Erniu is nowhere to be found. Only grandpa sits there drinking tea every day …."
Ning Yan shook his head and rubbed his hands together, scattering the food scraps in his palms. Then he turned and left.
At the same time, in the Clear Sand Desert, Xu Qing was running like a wild beast. His eyes were red, and his body flickered with a violet light. The hunger in his heart had invaded everything he knew.
It transformed into terrifying fluctuations that continued to explode out from his body.
Gradually, it became a tempest that shook Heaven and Earth.
The concealment of humanity, the influx of divinity, and the imperfections formed a vortex that drowned Xu Qing like an abyss that could devour everything.
It was as if a gap had been opened in the shackles given by the concept of man.
In that endless release, Xu Qing sank into oblivion.
To him, any existence in this world could be a part of his food. The phrase "Hunger is not picky" perfectly described Xu Qing's current state.
Whether it was the ferocious beasts in the desert, the walking mushrooms, or the aura in the wind, he could devour them all.

Also, the foreign substances in the world became like sweet nectar.
They seemed to have their own will. They came from all directions and rushed into Xu Qing's body with joy, nourishing his Poison Seal and his Purple Moon.
Hence, not only did Xu Qing's body shine with a violet light, but there was also a halo that spread out. That was the Poison Seal.
As he moved forward, his body gradually turned into a beam of violet light. Wherever he passed, all the sand on the ground turned into dust. He was like a living god.
A group of ferocious beasts in the desert in the distance seemed to have lost their ability to flee. They trembled where they were. The fear that came from their souls and instincts dictated their actions.
They allowed Xu Qing to walk over. Under his gaze, they turned into nutrients and surged into Xu Qing's body.
Occasionally, he would encounter a powerful existence like the mushrooms, but he could not escape fate. As Xu Qing approached, the foreign substances in this world turned into a suppression that crushed everything.
The tough outer shell could not protect him at all. Under this shattering, it could not stop Xu Qing's footsteps.
He walked into the body of the food. He grabbed pieces with both hands and stuffed them into his mouth wildly.
He even felt that eating like this was a little slow. Hence, mouths grew all over his body and he kept devouring.
His lost left hand had long since grown back. If Xu Qing felt the need, it would only take a thought. It was incomparably simple.
The Purple Moon was active. The Poison Seal was churning. The shadow was terrified to the extreme at this moment. The Vajra Sect's old ancestor dared not make a single move.
'Forget about me. Forget about me …'
The Vajra Sect's old ancestor prayed in his heart. The shadow did the same.
a
They were afraid. It was a fear that came from their life origins.
Before this, they had seen Xu Qing's madness. However, they had never felt such despair as they did now.
This was because they could sense that the current Xu Qing would really devour them if he wanted to.
Ding San's godly finger was also afraid.
He was awakened by the stimulation. The instant he woke up, he was about to send out a dissatisfied wave. However, in the next instant, he sensed what was happening in the outside world. His mind was in a state of shock.
Without any hesitation, he instantly retracted his aura. As he trembled, he pretended to continue sleeping. However, the fear in his heart could no longer be described with words.
"W-w-w-what's going on?!"
"I've only slept for a while. How did this happen?!"
The godly finger trembled. The fear in his heart erupted from his body like a tidal wave. At this moment, he felt as if he was facing Red Mother and the Spirit Emperor.
Xu Qing's hunger made him feel as if he could eat him at any time.
This feeling made him despair. At the same time, he was filled with boundless grief and indignation.
He felt that the gods had their own destinies as well. He must have suffered a backlash from his own destiny. He was attacked by the misfortune of his own Authority. He was extremely unlucky.
"I've been hiding from my main body for countless years because I was afraid of being devoured. However, I met this Xu Qing. Later on, to avoid the Ancient Spirit Emperor, I could only work with him. However … Who can tell me what's going on? I hid in his stomach until the end, but why is he doing the same? He wants to devour me as well!"
"This can't be. It can't be that fast. It should be many years before he reaches this stage."
"Also, he's the same as those Postcelestials who have their humanity erased and assimilated with their divinity. They rely on erasing their humanity. This is different from me, who was born as a noble godly spirit. How can he give me such a terrifying feeling now?!"
"Also … His humanity is fighting against his divinity. Isn't he crazy? Why is he fighting against it?
This is also the reason why he fell into madness. "
The God Finger was filled with grief and indignation. However, at this moment, Xu Qing's body paused. He seemed to be listening.
With this pause, the shadow played dead. The Vajra Sect's old ancestor retracted his head. Ding Yisan's finger immediately closed his eyes. He dared not move.
They were praying in their hearts.
"Don't see me, don't remember me, forget me …"
Nervousness and uneasiness appeared in their minds at the same time.
In the next moment, Xu Qing moved. He ran into the distance. There … was more delicious food there.
The shadow sighed in relief. The Vajra Sect's old ancestor raised his head while trembling. Ding Yisan's God Finger was filled with grief.
'It's meaningless to continue fighting like this. If this guy keeps doing this, he'll only become an Abomination. He's a Postcelestial Abomination.
'Also, something's not right about him. Under normal circumstances, he shouldn't be able to make me feel so terrified at this stage!
The feeling he gives me doesn't feel like he's going through a breakthrough!
'Damn it. What should I do? What should I do? Once he becomes an Abomination, I'm done for. An Abomination is a chaotic existence that can even devour itself when it's hungry!'
While Ding Yisan was feeling extremely anxious, the madness in Xu Qing's eyes grew stronger. He was getting closer to the food he sensed.
He could sense that the food before him was unprecedentedly fragrant and sweet. It made his heart yearn for it. His hunger had also reached its peak at this moment.
'Hungry … Hungry … There's a person standing in the desert before him.
It's the captain! '
He looked into the distance at the rapidly approaching purple windstorm. His expression was no longer as casual as before. There was a rare solemn look in his eyes.
