The source of the wind came from Xu Qing, who was sitting cross-legged in the distance and not moving at all.
At this moment, wind and clouds surged at the altar and lightning rumbled. Everyone looked bewildered.
Even the vortex in the sky rumbled more and more.
At that instant earlier, they sensed an obscure fluctuation rising with the wind, as though it was emitted from Xu Qing's body. After that, this world swayed.
The ground quaked, and the blade-like slanted mountain range in the distance also trembled. A large amount of boulders fell and smashed into the canyon, leaving behind lingering sounds.
"What's going on!"
Ning Yan took a deep breath in horror.
The captain's eyes were also wide open. He looked at Xu Qing, who was sitting cross-legged in the distance with his eyes closed, and his heart churned.
The heir suddenly turned his head and looked at Xu Qing. His expression changed.
"This is…"
Princess Mingmei and the others also instantly looked over, their eyes revealing strange glints.
Old Eighth's entire body trembled as he muttered involuntarily.
"??? He really comprehended it?"
Amidst the varying degrees of shock among the crowd, an aura of unparalleled killing intent was slowly taking shape in this place!
It was only an embryonic form and still required time to completely descend.
But even so, it already stirred immense waves in the hearts of the onlookers, especially the heir. He gazed at Xu Qing, who was sitting cross-legged in the distance. He should have been happy to see this, as Xu Qing had made achievements under his guidance.
However, he still couldn't help feeling a sense of helplessness.
At this moment, he once again thought of Xu Qing's master. Hence, he instinctively looked at Princess Mingmei.
Princess Mingmei also looked at him at this moment. The two of them looked at each other and fell silent.
…
It was unknown if the wind had an age.
If it didn't, how could it record the traces of the existence of all things over the years?
If it did, how could they be differentiated?
There were extremely few people who could answer this question.
Perhaps the age of the wind was determined by the events it had witnessed, hence the ancient times and the present.
At that moment, in the Moon Worship Region, the wind blew at all living beings and stirred their hearts. At the same time, the Red Moon Shrine made their move.
To the Red Moon Shrine, the scene of the first act was an extremely serious blasphemy!
They wanted to find the source and contain all of this immediately.
Hence, a large number of temple cultivators flew in all directions.
However, it was clearly impossible to find the altar hidden in the green sand in a short period of time.
As for the ancient wind, it blew past the altar, stirring everyone's minds and causing even greater waves.
However, the second act had already officially begun and they couldn't stop. Even though Ning Yan and the others' hearts were trembling, they could only brace themselves and act.
Hence, the heaven and earth stirred up by the ancient wind also became the background of the scene. Through the Heavenly Eye mirror, this was reflected in the minds of all living beings in the Moon Worship Region.
This grand show continued.
The event that all living beings saw also unknowingly showed traces of vicissitudes. It had the will to kill which increased the degree of its authenticity.
The first thing that appeared on the screen was an altar.
This altar was extremely huge and majestic. At the same time, it was filled with countless runic marks. Any one of them could cause the sun, moon, and stars to shatter with just a slight activation.
At the center of the altar, Crimson Goddess, who was sealed using countless stars, was forcefully pressed down by a burly man in golden armor and knelt there.
She wanted to struggle but it was useless.
The burly man in the golden armor wore a mask and his expression couldn't be seen. However, he stood there with an upright body that was filled with killing intent. He pressed down on the Crimson Goddess' head with one hand and dragged a long blade with the other.
This blade emitted extreme coldness and a terrifying fluctuation. A 10,000 feet long phantom of the blade appeared in the air.
This was the divine official in charge of execution.
Outside the altar, the ruler played by Ning Yan was looking at the sky. Countless figures could be vaguely seen in his surroundings, all showing deep respect.
They were waiting for the ancient sovereign's decree to arrive.
The scene was solemn and the killing intent was incomparably dense. Everything was clearly reflected in the minds of all living beings, causing the hearts of everyone in the Moon Worship Region to tremble.
This was because the killing intent in this scene was too astonishing. All living beings in the region sensed it through the scene itself.
Even though most of them were hesitating, at this moment, the reality of this killing intent caused the experts of the various races who were hesitating to waver even more.
The higher one's cultivation was, the more this was the case. As one's senses became sharper, their perception toward this killing intent varied.
"This transmission of killing intent…"
"Just sensing it a little makes my heart skip a beat!"
"Is… this scene indeed real?"
The hearts of all living beings in the outside world trembled, especially the cultivators of the Red Moon Shrine. They were even more shocked at this moment and searched for all the traces.
However, these people didn't know that the actors in the show were also shocked.
Ning Yan tried his best to control his nervousness and didn't look at where Xu Qing was. However, he could strongly sense the increasingly astonishing killing intent in his surroundings. This caused him to tremble with fear. At the same time, the feeling of life-and-death crisis also erupted.
The captain was equally surprised. Even the trembles of Crimson Goddess played by Nether Fairy weren't entirely feigned.
The wind here was even stronger.
The killing intent grew denser and denser, and it even affected the laws here. Snowflakes appeared and floated between the heaven and earth.
The expressions of the heir and Princess Mingmei also turned solemn. They no longer cared about this performance. At that moment, their gazes landed on Xu Qing.
Xu Qing was still comprehending.
With the help of his morning glow, he had been searching and simulating the fleeting ripple in the scene of the ink.
It was only at that moment earlier that he finally found traces in the hazy depths of the ink in his sea of consciousness.
The morning glow fused into it.
As he simulated and comprehended, a shocking boom slowly rose in his mind until he heard the murmurs that he hadn't heard clearly before.
That ripple was the source of the murmurs and also the source of the wind.
Now, it became clear!
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!!!"
Countless voices gathered together and roared out this word. At this moment, it suddenly exploded in Xu Qing's mind.
His mind was in turmoil and the ink in his sea of consciousness stirred violently.
The ancient wind stirred even more. With Xu Qing's body as the mouth, it was released. It howled around the broken altar and followed the Heavenly Eye mirror, erupting violently in the minds of all living beings.
All living beings were shaken. Most of the experts from the various races in the external world felt their hearts skip a beat. There were also some who directly stood up in horror from their seated position, and their hair stood on end.
They could sense that the killing intent in the scene in their minds seemed to have transformed into an ancient fiend that erupted in front of them.
This was especially so for the cultivators of the Moon Rebel Hall. The expressions of the few mysterious deputy hall masters changed one after another in their respective hiding places.
Their expressions were solemn. Previously, they had sensed that this scene was formed with the help of the Moon Rebel Hall, which had already surprised them a lot.
Although most of them hesitated when the first act appeared, they already attached great importance to it.
Now, the killing intent in the second act shook their hearts intensely.
"Is this true?!"
In fact, in the Red Moon Shrine, a terrifying aura erupted at this moment.
After the divine son entered seclusion, the high priest, who was in charge of everything, took a step out. His expression was solemn. Even he felt his heart skip a beat.
He originally thought that all of this was a trick of the heir and the others, but now… he wasn't sure.
At the same time, Ning Yan and the others also felt their hearts churning intensely. According to the script, it was time for Wu Jianwu to appear, but he stopped in his tracks and his body stiffened for a moment.
However, thinking of countless spectators watching him, Wu Jianwu forcibly calmed himself. Wearing imperial robes and a crown, his figure slowly appeared in the sky of the scene, overlooking the earth. He exchanged a gaze with the ruler played by Ning Yan.
At this moment, there was no need for him to display any imposing aura. The earth trembled, the mountains trembled, the sky rumbled, and all the changes caused by the churning killing intent naturally turned into the best embellishments.
Before this, the heir and the others were the ones who added all the effects. However, now, they no longer paid attention to the act. They were all looking at Xu Qing.
'Why isn't he awake yet?' The heir was puzzled. However, due to his understanding of Xu Qing, he didn't say this. He believed that Old Eighth would say it.
"Why isn't this kid awake yet? He has succeeded in comprehending." Old Eighth indeed mumbled as the heir had expected.
"He's still comprehending. Killing intent isn't his limit."
After hearing Old Eighth's words, the heir calmly spoke.
Princess Mingmei nodded slightly.
Old Eighth sneered and looked at them.
"How come you all have the expressions as if you knew this would happen, but your words before weren't like this at all? It's too fake, do you think I'm stupid?"
Princess Mingmei had an expressionless face. With a wave of her hand, Old Eight's body was instantly thrown into the distance by a tremendous force.
"Eighth Brother's brain might not have been damaged from the beatings; it was probably already damaged at birth."
The heir agreed and so did Fifth Sister. At that moment, her gaze swept past Xu Qing and she spoke in a low voice.
"I'm gazing forward to seeing, after comprehending the killing intent of the God Slaying Platform, what level he can reach in his subsequent insights…"
At the same time, in Xu Qing's sea of consciousness, under this intense turbulence, the killing intent in the ink also spread throughout Xu Qing's body.
Xu Qing trembled and waves of intense pain spread throughout his body.
However, at this moment, he no longer had the contemplated of opening his eyes. The thought of probing the source of the intense pain also didn't appear in his mind. He continued to sit there cross-legged and immersed in the comprehension.
He was waiting for the inky scene in his sea of consciousness to take shape!
This was his goal.
That wisp of killing intent fluctuation was captured by him and released. Then, the scene… wouldn't be shattered again.
At that moment, the ink and the rainbow colors fused and a scene slowly outlined itself…
The sky on the scene split into two. The white part turned blue and the black part turned red.
In the blue sky, a supreme giant stood tall, wearing royal robes, shrouded in auspicious clouds that covered his features but couldn't conceal the overwhelming dominance radiating from him, capable of suppressing the ages.
As his gaze swept across, time reversed, and with each breath, all things returned to nothingness.
On the red sky, there was additionally a vast figure faintly discernible, a woman in a long red skirt. She had an ordinary appearance, but her eyes happened to be deep, containing the starry sky. Within them, single could witness the birth of galaxies and the extinction of star fields.
Under her dress, there happened to be no legs; instead, countless tentacles extended, spreading across the red sky. Within each tentacle, a star was vividly coiled.
The fluctuations of divinity surged into the sky.
"Li Zihua, I did not expect that it would be you… who came to stop me from becoming a god."
"Boss is sick." The tall figure spoke hoarsely.
The woman fell silent. After a long time, she muttered softly.
"Do you remember my song?"
As she mumbled, a song echoed through the world.
"Some transform freely and soar, chasing the wind and breaking the waves along the way.
Running to the Red Moon ocean, traversing the vast borderlands.
Imagining the reincarnation of all beings, with everything's flesh and blood as sustenance.
The sunlight scorched my eyes, unable to bury the ideals.
I look up to the vastness, above the Red Moon… I soar!"
