Chapter 946 You’re Afraid, I’m Afraid Too (1)

Earth city’s apothecary fell into silence.

Xiaomiao swayed a few times and realized that no one was paying attention to it. Hence, it curiously stuck its head out and secretly glanced at the back room.

After waiting for a while and sensing that there was still no sound, it carefully pulled out its roots from the soil, as though it had finally obtained an opportunity and was planning to escape.

However, just as all its roots were plucked up and it leaped out of the flower pot, preparing to leave quietly, a killing intent instantly spread out from the beam.

The fishbone that had fused with the Diamond Sect’s ancestor appeared in front of Xiaomiao and pointed at its body.

Xiaomiao shivered and slowly crawled back into the flower pot. It put its roots back into the soil, and swayed fawningly.

The fishbone circled it a few times and returned to the beam in a flash.

“If I let this little thing escape, the fiend will definitely vent his anger on me later.” The Diamond Sect’s ancestor sneered inwardly. After that, he looked at the back room.

Due to the existence of concealment, he couldn’t sense the details. However, based on the faint connection with Xu Qing, he could faintly sense that Xu Qing’s aura was gone from the back room.

This was indeed the case.

The back room was empty. What entered the crack in the mirror wasn’t the divine consciousness but Xu Qing and Ling’er’s main bodies.

This was also one of the wonders of the Moon Rebel Hall.

However, the journey to this magical place didn’t give Xu Qing a good impression.

He felt like he had entered a narrow space filled with oppressive pressure. All around him, there were shining walls of light that enclosed him.

The curved walls of light formed a circle, being incredibly firm while firmly restraining Xu Qing’s body. He couldn’t move, as if he were stuck in place.

The more he struggled, the stronger the restraint became, as if he couldn’t move forward and could only retreat.

Xu Qing frowned. He didn’t expect to appear in such a godforsaken place after entering the crack.

“Could this be the third test?”

Xu Qing fell into deep thought. When he studied the mirror before, he sensed that there were a total of three tests. He had figured out the details of the first two but he didn’t have any understanding of the third one.

Hence, after pondering, Xu Qing tried to spread out his divine consciousness. The process wasn’t easy. The pressure from all directions not only bound his body but also his perception.

This was especially so since the surrounding light walls possessed some kind of power and his divine consciousness couldn’t penetrate them, but fortunately, the path ahead remained relatively clear. Therefore, he gradually extended his divine consciousness forward through repeated attempts.

Finally, through continuous and unceasing effort, he gradually sensed his location.

“A pipeline?”

Xu Qing was taken aback as he used his divine consciousness to perceive that he was in a long and narrow pipeline.

As for the end, it exceeded the range of his divine consciousness and he couldn’t probe it. However, the vast fluctuations he could vaguely sense allowed him to guess that it should be the Moon Rebel Hall he was going to.

“Interesting. Looks like this is indeed the third test. If I can’t follow this pipeline path, I won’t be qualified to enter the Moon Rebel Hall.”

A sharp glint appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes. In the beginning, he wanted to join the Moon Rebel Hall because Duanmu Zang had said that the people of the Moon Rebel Hall had studied curses for generations and had an extremely deep understanding of them.

Hence, Xu Qing planned to head there and obtain some information about the curse. After all, one person’s research was ultimately inferior to a group of people who had pondered and analyzed for countless years.

This was very useful for Xu Qing to master the curse and could save a lot of time.

Now, other than needing information about the curse, he was also curious about the Moon Rebel Hall itself.

“No wonder Eldest Senior Brother wants to join too.”

Xu Qing’s gaze was firm. The cultivation base in his body erupted and his body soared. He borrowed the help of this god’s body to suppress the surroundings.

As rumbling sounds echoed, Xu Qing’s body trembled. The light walls in the surroundings were too hard. Even though he used all his strength, he couldn’t expand it much. His body only swelled to the height of five feet.

He had reached his limit.

That feeling of his body and soul being squeezed intensely caused Xu Qing to involuntarily feel stifled. He abruptly retracted his body, instantly returning to normal from a height of five feet.

The surrounding walls also rapidly retracted but there was still a gap between them.

Borrowing the gap between the retraction of the wall, Xu Qing lifted his right hand and circulated the cultivation base in his body. Other than the Purple Moon, the other nascent souls completely erupted and punched forward.

This punch gathered the Poison Restriction, Ghost Emperor Mountain, the Heavenly Dao, the Bottle of Time, the Golden Crow’s ability, and the might of his life lantern, forming a storm that rumbled forward.

Cracking sounds spread out and Xu Qing rushed out, stepping forward dozens of feet from where he was. As the feeling of restraint enveloped him again, Xu Qing gritted his teeth and used the same method to continue forward.

Xu Qing continued to forcefully blast open the path ahead. Although it was difficult to take a step forward, he still walked 1000 feet in the end.

After arriving here, he was already exhausted. After sensing the far end, Xu Qing had no choice but to sigh. He chose to leave and return to the apothecary. After resting, he continued to enter the mirror.

The place he had opened up earlier didn’t disappear with Xu Qing’s return. He gritted his teeth fiercely at a thousand feet and determination appeared in his eyes as he continued to bombard the path forward.

Just like that, the days passed.

Ling’er didn’t need to follow him every time. With her mark, Xu Qing could go alone. Hence, Ling’er reopened the apothecary.

However, from time to time, she would still turn her head and look at the back room, paying attention to Brother Xu Qing’s progress.

“This Moon Rebel Hall is so difficult. Even with Brother Xu Qing’s ability, he hasn’t been able to enter it,” sighed Ling’er in her heart. Similar emotions of frustration had also welled up in Xu Qing multiple times.
