366 You Want to Eat It Alone?
October, autumn.
In the northern part of the Nanhuang Continent, the main city of the Seven Blood Eyes.
The sky was clear except for wisps of white clouds that transformed into long catkins. It was as though a scholar was painting in the sky with white paint. With a few casual strokes, it created a beautiful scene.
It was the same for the land. The main city was filled with liveliness and prosperity. The people were smiling as they went about their businesses. This was because the Seven Blood Eyes had already announced their plan to migrate.
Anyone who paid taxes for ten years or more to the Seven Blood Eyes could apply to head to the Wanggu Continent.
They would have to take care of the teleportation fees themselves.
However, this was something countless cultivators in the Nanhuang Continent dreamed of, let alone the mortals in the Seven Blood Eyes.
While the city was filled with excitement, outside the first port, seven large ships were lined up majestically. These ships were all purple and of the same model. They were over 30,000 feet long and looked like warships.
They were covered in spirit jade tiles and gold plates. A huge blood eye that emitted a savage aura was placed at the bow of the ships.
There were also nine tails waving at the stern. They were strange but also shockingly terrifying.
There were also extremely complex array formations on the huge ships.
If someone who understood array formations saw this, they would definitely gasp in horror. This was because the complexity of this array formation allowed any huge ship to instantly transform into a war fortress after they were fully activated.
The Seven Blood Eyes’ disciples were boarding these ships.
Looking at their clothes, there were disciples from all the peaks.
Moreover, these disciples had extraordinary auras and powerful cultivation bases. Their presence caused the surrounding disciples to let out excited cries.
“I saw the second highness of the First Peak. It’s said that he went into seclusion after losing to Saintly Star. Now that he’s out of seclusion, he has definitely gotten more powerful!”
“It’s not just him. Look over there. That’s the eldest highnesses of the Third and Fourth Peaks.”
“The highnesses of the Second and Fifth Peaks are also here.”
As the disciples on the shore discussed, the captain, who was standing on one of these huge purple ships, curled his lips as he looked at this scene.
“Are they looking to take revenge? Previously, they had no choice but to go easy and show weakness, but they must have felt furious inwardly, so they are going to use this chance to clear their humiliation?”
“Little Qing, do you think we should take revenge on Little Kunkun too? He has an older brother who might also have the Mystic Nether Fingers!” The captain took an apple and took a bite before looking at Xu Qing, who was meditating cross-legged beside him.
Xu Qing opened his eyes. He was actually made to participate in this trip by Old Master Seventh to familiarize him with the Wanggu Continent in advance.
He wasn’t the only one. In reality, every peak had a similar arrangement. Basically, the people who were going this time were the first few highnesses of the various peaks. As for the Seventh Peak, other than Second Senior Sister who didn’t want to go, the other three were all going.
Hearing the captain’s words, Xu Qing fell silent for a moment and nodded. After the Alliance entry was confirmed, the sect wouldn’t let him continue to imprison Huang Yikun and the others, so they were all released.
“He still has some prison expenditures to settle, so he wrote an IOU before he was released. I can go ask for it this time,” Xu Qing explained.
The captain’s eyes lit up and he threw an apple to Xu Qing.
“That’s right. We’re not going to cause trouble, we’re only going to collect the debts. Oh right, Little Qing, have the others settled the bills?”
“They’ve all written IOUs.” Xu Qing calmly spoke.
“Haha, Little Qing, I admire this point of yours. You have a good reason for everything you do, just like me. I think we’re reasonable people, unlike Third Brother who does things by force. He is too much. Eh? Where did Third Brother go again?” The captain was beaming with joy as he looked around.
“He’s probably either flattering the old man or going to the other peaks to have a heart-to-heart chat with the female disciples. Let me tell you, ever since he entered the sect, I didn’t like him. I originally planned to matchmake Second Sister with him and watch him get beaten up every day.”
The captain looked regretful.
Xu Qing glanced at the captain but remained quiet.
Very soon, after the other peaks boarded the ships one after another, the seven huge ships outside the port let out rumbling sounds as they slowly moved off. They left the port and set sail on the Forbidden Sea, heading for the Wanggu Continent.
In this trip, the leaders of the Seven Blood Eyes were the ancestor, Xue Lianzi, and Old Master Seventh. The peak lords of the other peaks stayed behind to guard the sect and prepare to migrate.
Nanhuang Continent was extremely far from the Wanggu Continent. It would take too long if they just traveled normally.
As soon as these seven giant ships left the Seven Blood Eyes’ port, they all turned blurry. With the help of the sect’s array formation, the array formations of the giant ships instantly activated together and disappeared without a trace under waves of rumbling sounds.
When they reappeared, they were within the range of the merfolk island.
They didn’t stop. With the help of the array formations on the merfolk islands, they teleported again and arrived at the Sea Corpse Race’s sub islands.
Just like that, after borrowing the power of the array formations set up on the islands a few times, the Seven Blood Eyes soon arrived at the shore of the Sea Corpse Race’s main island. This place was only a single teleportation away from the Wanggu Continent.
Even if they didn’t teleport, they would be able to reach the Wanggu Continent in three days at most.
Here, the Seven Blood Eyes’ disciples had a day of freedom. They could get off the ships.
Although they were visiting a foreign place, they were filled with curiosity about their sect’s Taboo magic treasure. As the outstanding talents of the various peaks, they were destined to be the future representatives of the Seven Blood Eyes. It was even more necessary for them to understand their sect’s Taboo.
After the giant ships stopped, one figure after another flew out of the seven giant ships and headed straight for the Seven Blood Eyes’ Taboo in the distance. Xu Qing looked into the distance and the incomparably astonishing ancient bronze mirror was reflected in his eyes.
There were also the 14 towering ancestral corpse statues below. Every one of them emitted an ancient aura. The strangest thing was the seven closed eyes above them.
After the birth of the Seven Blood Eyes’ Taboo, the remaining territories of the Sea Corpse Race naturally surrendered to the Seven Blood Eyes without any bloodshed. From then on, the Sea Corpse Race bade farewell to their history and became a subsidiary group of the Seven Blood Eyes. As long as the Seven Blood Eyes’ Taboo stood, their fate wouldn’t change.
Miao Chen was released as he wasn’t of any use anymore.
Now, no one paid attention to the Sea Corpse Race. The gazes of the various forces in the Yinghuang Province landed on the Seven Blood Eyes, the first force in the Yinghuang Province to forcefully advance from a lower sect in the past ten thousand years.
“Little Qing, I have some private matters to discuss with an old friend. Sigh, it was because of her that I was able to escape this place back then. You probably guessed who it is, right? So, it’s not convenient for me to bring you along this time. I’ll leave now. Senior Brother trusts you on this matter. Don’t tell outsiders.”
The captain quickly surveyed his surroundings. After discovering that the people from the other ships had all gone to the place where the Taboo magic treasure was, he transmitted his voice to Xu Qing before getting off the ship with solemn expression and heading straight for the distance.
Xu Qing swept his gaze over. He then stood up and chased after the captain with a normal expression.
“Why are you following me?” The captain sensed Xu Qing’s arrival and instantly became vigilant.
“I also have a private matter,” Xu Qing calmly said.
The captain blinked and put on a look of realization.
“You’re going to kill Miao Chen, right? I have gotten his location for you. Hurry up and go.” As the captain spoke, he threw a jade slip to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing stored the jade slip before continuing to follow the captain.
“Why are you still following me?” The captain was a little anxious.
Xu Qing didn’t say anything. His gaze swept across the surroundings. After that, his body swayed and landed in a canyon that was relatively hidden on the ground. He then looked at the captain.
“Eldest Senior Brother, take it out. We only have a day. We have to eat it quickly.”
“Eat what?” The captain’s eyes widened as he took a few steps back.
“Eat the nose. I went to the museum last night and found that the nose was gone. Didn’t you take it? Or were you thinking of eating it alone?” Xu Qing asked in surprise.
The captain fell silent. After that, he blinked and laughed.
“Haha, as expected, nothing can be hidden from you, Junior Brother. That’s right, that’s right. My plan was for the two of us to eat together. I was just joking with you just now.”
The captain coughed. After scanning his surroundings, he endured the heartache and took out an item from his storage bag.
With a boom, the item landed on the ground.
This item was the nose of the ancestral corpse statue.
When it was in the Seven Blood Eyes, it was just an ordinary stone. However, as soon as it appeared here, it emitted astonishing fluctuations. It emitted astonishing spiritual quality and aura.
Xu Qing’s eyes lit up and he immediately sat down cross-legged. The cultivation base in his body circulated ferociously and the two canopies appeared. The Golden Crow also manifested and inhaled fiercely.
The captain immediately became anxious. In reality, he was worried that Xu Qing would absorb it quickly, so he thought of secretly absorbing more than half of it before tossing the rest to Xu Qing.
Now that his plan had been seen through and Xu Qing had started to devour it so savagely, he hurriedly hugged it. His eyes were red as he did his best to absorb it.
Just like that, while the highnesses of the other peaks were sighing with emotion at the majesty of the Seven Blood Eyes’ Taboo, Xu Qing and the captain were secretly having a feast.
A terrifying power instantly gathered in Xu Qing’s body. The Diamond Sect’s ancestor and shadow also quickly rushed out and absorbed the energy of the nose together.
“This is too much, too much, too much!” The captain became even more anxious. He decided to use his teeth as well and bit down on the stone. As though he felt that it wasn’t enough, he used some unknown method and large mouths grew on his body and they all bit down.
Cracks started appearing on the nose as the two of them continued to use their own methods to crazily absorb it.
The 93rd magic aperture in Xu Qing’s body was instantly opened. This wasn’t the end. Very soon, the 94th and 95th apertures were opened one after another.
One had to know that the power needed to open his magic apertures now was dozens of times greater than before. However, they were still opened one by one. One could see how terrifying the power contained in this nose was.
Just like that, time flowed by and a day soon passed. When most of the highnesses of the Seven Blood Eyes returned to the ship, Xu Qing’s magic apertures had opened to 101!
As for this ancestral corpse statue’s nose, it had decreased by 40%. It had all been eaten by the captain.
Although the remaining part was still a lot, their spiritual quality had decreased. If he wanted to absorb it, he needed a higher cultivation base. Otherwise, he would have to eat it like the captain.
Xu Qing hesitated for a moment. He felt that he shouldn’t be able to digest it, so he waited for a while. After the captain swallowed half of the nose with great difficulty, Xu Qing immediately stored the nose.
The captain burped and his stomach was bulging as he lay there with his limbs spread out. He exuded a sense of weakness.
“I ate too much… Little Qing, help me up. I can’t get up.”
