He had seen this door before!
The first time he saw it was on the God Slaying Platform. The captain had gathered the faith of all living beings to open a path to the land of a god. This door had appeared there!
It was exactly the same. Even the scratches on it were the same.
This was the second time he was seeing it.
The environment and aura in the gap gave Xu Qing a sense of familiarity, causing him to immediately realize that this place… was the place the captain had gone to that day.
'The place the clay fox is looking for is actually this!'
Xu Qing remembered very clearly that at that time, the heir and the others had said that the existence at that land of god was a high god of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race!
The term 'high god' represented terror and supremacy.
Crimson Goddess was a high god, and the master of the land of the wicked was also a high god.
Although the strengths of the gods were different, no matter how weak a high god was, they still possessed astonishing might. Their powers couldn't be imagined by ordinary people.
Hence, Xu Qing's mind continued to stir.
He remembered very clearly that the captain had stood in front of this wooden door and made an agreement with the high god inside. The other party had given him a strand of gray hair.
The gray wind in the entire desert was also formed because of this hair.
'The high god behind this door has long made a deal with Eldest Senior Brother in his past life… With Her help, Eldest Senior Brother used the ritual dance technique to hide his body parts.'
'As for the green sand desert, it's the agreed place between them.'
'This is a trump card that Eldest Senior Brother has set up for countless years against the Crimson Goddess!'
These scenes appeared in Xu Qing's mind and a huge commotion stirred in his heart. He had connected everything.
'Also, when I was in the clay fox's shrine, I saw that the object the myriad races worshiped was a hexagonal star… The Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race has three high gods, the sun, moon, and star…'
Xu Qing abruptly turned his head and looked at the clay fox.
He had already guessed the other party's identity.
The clay fox smiled sweetly at Xu Qing, her face revealing a flirtatious expression. Her charming body swayed as she walked leisurely toward the gap, arriving in front of the door.
"Big Sister, I finally found your mark."
The clay fox's voice was coquettish, and when it entered the ears, it could cause ripples in the heart, turning into a vortex, as if it could suck all thoughts into it, mesmerizing and reluctant to wake up.
The door remained unchanged. There was also no sign of the intense banging at the door like when the captain arrived that day.
However, the cold and evil intent in the surroundings was even more obvious. The anomalous substances here became even denser, causing everything to become blurry. Thin fog started to spread in all directions.
These might pose a huge obstruction to cultivators but they were clearly useless against the clay fox.
As she laughed, she walked toward the wooden door.
"It seems that you want to descend here in the future, sister, so you left behind a divine soul door. Interesting."
"In those years, I noticed that sister, you were acting mysteriously, as if you wanted to keep something to yourself. So, little sister has been figuring out what you wanted to have all these years."
The clay fox licked her lips and a pink light appeared in her eyes as she stood in front of the gate.
Almost at the instant she stopped, a large amount of blood seeped out through the gap in the wooden door and rapidly covered the ground.
Xu Qing also approached the gap from the void. However, he didn't step in. Instead, he stood at the edge and watched carefully.
The clay fox ignored the blood on the ground and spoke, her voice still gentle.
"Sister, I have been working hard all these years. Until I found a kidney, and on it, I smelled your aura. Although it was very faint, how could it be hidden from me?"
"At that time, I vaguely guessed your motive. However, in order to monopolize the food, you concealed too deeply and even avoided your younger sister, causing her to search hard."
"However, this world is just so interesting."
The clay fox laughed and turned to look at Xu Qing. His body swayed wildly amidst her laughter and the veil slipped off a bit more, creating an intense enchanting feeling at this moment.
"I actually sensed karma on this little brother. At that time, my divinity told me that he would see you soon, sister."
"He would become my guide to find you."
"See, this is the reason for everything. I didn't lie to you at all."
"Now, I'm sure what you want to eat."
Just as the clay fox said this, a rumbling sound rang out from beyond the wooden door. It was as though someone was angrily attacking the door from the inside. In an instant, this area shook violently.
The blood on the ground also rapidly rose into the air, transforming into a bright moon that hung high up. The moonlight illuminated the surroundings, forming divine might that swept through everything.
Even though Xu Qing was at the edge of the gap and hadn't truly stepped in, he still felt his mind shaking. His whole body was shaking.
"Useless thing!" Xu Qing's gaze was calm as he reprimanded the god's finger inwardly.
After all, this body was created by the god's finger and It was also a god. To think that this body was so useless.
The god's finger was filled with grief and indignation but It didn't dare to give any response and continued to pretend to be dead.
Xu Qing didn't bother with it and resisted the aura in front of him with all his might. The Purple Moon power in his body also fluctuated.
This was especially so for his authority. It emitted a sense of restlessness that permeated Xu Qing's entire body, sharing his burden.
However, even so, Xu Qing still couldn't withstand it.
"Sister, why is your temper still so bad?"
Just as the surroundings distorted and turned blurry, the clay fox chuckled. The sun, moon, and stars appeared behind her and transformed into the starry sky. All the starlight in the starry sky gathered and formed a hexagonal star.
As soon as this totem appeared, the tremors here became even more intense, as though two invisible forces were colliding here.
Most of the pressure on Xu Qing's side dissipated instantly.
This collision didn't last long. In an instant, they retracted their attacks. After peace was restored, a voice rang out from the wooden door for the first time.
It was a woman's voice that was filled with disgust.
"Coquettish fox, speak properly!"
The clay fox didn't mind the word 'coquettish' at all; it seemed that, for her, this word represented a kind of affirmation of her charm, so she grinned brightly.
"Sure, sister. But eating alone might not be a good idea. That's the Crimson Goddess…"
At the mention of Crimson Goddess, a hint of wariness flashed in the eyes of the clay fox.
"If it's just you, be careful that you won't even get to eat but instead strength have to pay an unbearable price. So… sister, how about doing it together?"
A cold snort rang out from the wooden door. At the next instant, the scratch marks on it seemed to have come alive and squirmed on their own. They gathered together to form a closed eye.
After that, the eye abruptly opened.
The anomalous substances suddenly intensified at this moment, and the sense of distortion was equally strong, accompanied by whispers echoing in all directions.
That was the god's eye.
It was golden with dual-pupils and carried a cold intent. It didn't look at the clay fox but at Xu Qing.
With this glance, Xu Qing's heart trembled and all the authorities in his body erupted one after another. However, it was still difficult to neutralize the power of this gaze. Black gas rose from his body, which was a sign of being invaded by anomalous substances.
The life-and-death crisis erupted abruptly.
Every inch of his body seemed to be screaming and shivering. It was being tainted, and was rotting, seemingly on the verge of disintegrating.
Xu Qing didn't bother with his body and only maintained the independence of his soul. The god's finger finally couldn't pretend to be asleep. It swore and erupted with all Its might to repair Its body…
Seeing this, Xu Qing calmed down and cupped his fists, bowing to the eye on the door.
"Greetings, Senior!"
The god's eye on the door revealed a strange glint.
"I remember you. You came with that damn thief last time. This time, you came with this coquettish fox."
Before Xu Qing could speak, the clay fox took light steps and stood between Xu Qing and the eye on the door. She blocked the gaze, thereby relieving the pressure on Xu Qing.
Then, she turned back coquettishly, glanced at Xu Qing with a look full of affection.
"Little brother, don't be afraid, sister is here."
With that, she turned to look at the wooden door and smiled.
"Sister, this is your brother-in-law. You better not have your eyes on his yang essence; it belongs to me."
The god's eye on the door stared at the clay fox. After a long time, It let out a frigid snort but didn't say anything. Its eyes slowly closed and turned back into scratches.
Clearly, the Moon Flame High God had chosen to acquiesce to the clay fox's suggestion.
"Thank you, big sister."
The clay fox's smile was like a hundred flowers in full bloom, incomparably beautiful. In reality, even if she didn't have that charm on her, she was still peerless beauty. Her coquettish demeanor added an extra allure, making her truly captivating.
In this moment, as she raised her hand and waved, the void around them seemed to compress. With a cracking sound, a clay door materialized out of thin air, standing next to the wooden door.
"Sister, I'll take my leave first."
The clay fox walked toward the clay door. When she reached the door, she turned her head and looked at Xu Qing. She blinked and her watery eyes revealed a gaze of temptation.
"Little brother, do you want to come to my house for a while?"
Xu Qing's expression was serious as he politely rejected.
Laughter echoed. The clay fox's gaze was filled with anticipation as she pointed at Xu Qing.
"Then you have to take good care of your yang essence that belongs to me. I'll leave first. Remember to call me when it's time to feast."
She waved her jade-like hand at Xu Qing.
Immediately, a layer of fog swept up a silver bone and headed straight for Xu Qing. Before Xu Qing could touch it, this fog enveloped his entire body.
At the next instant, it was as though the stars had shifted, as though time had reversed. Everything was flowing in the opposite direction in Xu Qing's perception. His body left the land of god and moved in the void path in reverse.
The fog disappeared in the blink of an eye and Xu Qing's figure emerged in the valley.
The sky was still red and the frigid wind was still blowing.
The grass in the valley swayed and rustled. There was no one around.
Xu Qing stood there as though he had never stepped onto the shrine to head underground and then to the land of the god. It was as though everything was just a dream.
He couldn't help but feel a little dazed. After a while, he lowered his head and opened his palm.
There was a silver bone in his palm.
He recalled that when he first saw the clay fox, the other party had taken out such an item and called it the Ancient Spirit Race's bone pill. It was very useful for Ancient Spirit Race cultivators.
After a long time, Xu Qing took a deep breath and cupped his fists and bowed in the direction of the depths of the canyon.
"Thank you, Senior."
