As this vortex rumbled and rotated, it drowned his figure, forming a blood-red lake that rapidly spread forward.
Wherever it passed, boulders would be submerged and vegetation would be dyed red. The blood lake exuded an eerie and ominous aura. As it spread, it gradually became a shocking sight and attracted the attention of the Red Moon cultivators on the mountain.
"What is this!"
The instant those Red Moon cultivators looked over, their bodies trembled to varying degrees.
This trembling came from the instinct of life, from their faith, and even more from the flow of blood throughout the body.
Their blood was going out of control!
It seemed to possess will and life as it fought to rush out.
If their internal organs blocked it, it would break through them. If their flesh and skin stopped it, the flesh and skin would collapse. If their souls blocked it, the soul would be destroyed.
It was as though Xu Qing couldn't be looked at directly at this moment!
Hence, the moment they saw him, more than ten Red Moon Nascent Soul cultivators let out mournful cries. Their bodies directly shattered into pieces and a large amount of blood flowed out.
It seemed to be cheering as it headed straight for the blood-red lake on the ground.
This scene instantly caused the Red Moon cultivators in charge of investigating this place to be extremely shocked. They instinctively retreated and tried to suppress their blood but they couldn't do it. As they retreated, they collapsed one after another.
From afar, blood-red flowers bloomed in the sky.
The old Dao Nurturing expert among these cultivators also had a shocked expression. His body was also trembling and his blood was flowing crazily.
There was also the middle-aged divine servant who possessed a complete secret repository. His expression was unprecedentedly solemn.
The instant they retreated, the blood-red lake in the mountain range suddenly rose into the air.
As rumbling sounds echoed, the blood-red lake surged in the air.
Xu Qing's face appeared in every drop of blood. These countless faces formed a ten-foot-long human face with an indifferent expression. At the same time, a divine repository rose within it.
It suppressed the group of Red Moon cultivators.
Wails rang out endlessly. Those Nascent Soul cultivators could no longer suppress the blood in their bodies.
Endless blood spurted out of their seven orifices and the pores on their bodies. It then transformed into blood blades outside their bodies and turned against them.
As blood splattered, the sea of blood carried countless blood blades as it headed straight for the old Dao Nurturing cultivator and the middle-aged Spirit Repository, wanting to surround them.
The two of them felt their hearts pounding. The instinctive fear they felt caused them to retreat rapidly.
However, Dao Nurturing was still different from someone with a complete Spirit Repository. At the next instant, the middle-aged Spirit Repository's body rumbled and his secret repository appeared. As it expanded outwards, his Heavenly Dao let out a deep shout inside, affecting the surrounding laws as it charged fiercely.
Amidst the deafening sound, the middle-aged Spirit Repository rushed out before Xu Qing surrounded him.
However, the old man who was in Dao Nurturing was much slower.
In the blink of an eye, he was enveloped by Xu Qing's sea of blood. He struggled with all his might and his illusory secret repository appeared. He wanted to resist but it was useless.
The sea of blood formed a vortex outside his body. As it spun rapidly, it surged toward his entire body, wanting to enter it.
The old man had a horrified expression. He continuously performed hand seals and activated his divine power. He even took out a magic artifact to block it.
But it was useless!
The endless sea of blood drowned him and continued to enter his body. The pain brought about by this process transformed into a mournful wail.
From afar, this scene was shocking!
At the next instant, the sea of blood fully entered the body of the old man. The old man's body trembled and his eyes were filled with despair. His body seemed to be unable to contain it and finally, with a boom, he shattered into pieces.
The sea of blood churned out and transformed into Xu Qing's indifferent face as he looked at the middle-aged Spirit Repository in the distance.
"This battle should be a fierce one. I wonder if the current me can win against a complete secret repository!"
Xu Qing's battle intent surged. The sea of blood surged and suppressed the surroundings. His divine repository undulated and destroyed everything as it headed straight for the middle-aged Spirit Repository.
At that moment, in the mountain formed by the Joyful Travel Tree, two gazes were staring at the outside world.
The origin of these gazes was a huge cave.
Countless tree roots gathered in the air above the cave, forming a huge cocoon.
Waves of resplendent light emitted from the gaps in the cocoon, illuminating this place in various colors.
The heir was standing beside the cocoon of light and looking up.
"Third Sister, you saw many heaven's chosen back then. What do you think of my half-disciple?"
The heir smiled.
"Is this your disciple? Has he agreed to let you be his master? You're already so old, why are you still snatching other people's disciples? Don't you have any shame?"
A cold voice rang out from the light cocoon.
Very few people had the qualifications to speak to the heir like this, and Third Sister clearly had the qualifications to do so.
Regarding his third sister's words, the heir felt that it was very normal. His elder sister had such a temper. She was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
"The essence of teaching is always there, and I've helped him so much. I've even given him these gifts to enhance his cultivation."
The heir smiled and continued to watch Xu Qing's attacks. His eyes slowly revealed admiration that he usually wouldn't reveal outside.
"You call this a gift?"
A cold voice rang out from the light cocoon. At the next instant, the light cocoon rumbled and directly exploded. A figure walked out and left the mountain in one step. She then arrived in the air in front of the middle-aged Spirit Repository cultivator Xu Qing was chasing.
Before the Spirit Repository could react, a jade-like finger landed between his brows.
With a boom, the middle-aged Spirit Repository cultivator's body trembled and he transformed into a fruit tree. It rapidly grew and bore fruit.
The blood sea transformed by Xu Qing paused, coalescing into form, and he gazed upon the woman who appeared before him with hesitation.
This woman had an outstanding and devastatingly beautiful face. Amidst her beauty, there was a touch of heroic spirit, radiating a dazzling aura.
Her rosy cheeks were like the glow of the setting sun on a tranquil pond. Her hair was tied into a simple fairy bun, adorned with a few plump and lustrous beads that sparkled, yet not as shimmering as her beautiful eyes.
That pair of starry watery eyes was as blue as the sea, captivating the splendor of a thousand lifetimes.
One could say her visage was like plum blossoms blooming in the snow in spring, and her demeanor was as graceful as autumn orchids adorned with frost, sufficient to make any man lose his soul in an instant.
At that moment, she lifted her jade-like hand and took out the fruit of the Spirit Repository Tree at the side. She glanced at the successor who had accompanied her and handed it to Xu Qing.
"This is what I term giving a gift."
"Kid, we met in a hurry last time and I wasn't prepared, so here is a meeting gift."
