At the moment when the clone of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race cultivator died, in the sixth region of the Flame Moon, three forbidden zones away from where Xu Qing and the captain were at, a fierce battle was reaching its climax.
The people who were fighting were two cultivators of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven.
The bodies of these two people were dozens of feet tall, with golden hair and eyes, emitting a holy aura all over. Above each of them floated three forbidden mountains exuding dense anomalous substances.
As wind and lightning roared, not only did the sound spread in all directions, but there were also collisions of nomological laws. Many cultivators from the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race's affiliated races were watching in the surroundings.
At that moment, with a muffled groan, the body of a Flame Moon Mystic Heaven cultivator in the battle collapsed and shattered into pieces. As blood splattered everywhere, his head was lifted by the opponent and placed before him.
"You clearly know that that's the forbidden zone I marked but you still snatched the forbidden mountain?"
The other party calmly spoke.
"Yun Fanzi, I'll give this clone to you. However, on your way to the Divine Mountain, my main body will look for you. I hope you can keep all the forbidden mountains intact."
The head looked at the murderer and spoke in a deep voice.
The cultivator Yun Fanzi had a calm expression. With a wave of his hand, he threw the head onto the forbidden mountain in the air.
As the mountain rumbled and produced pressure, the head rapidly decayed and eventually turned into ashes. However, it didn't dissipate. Instead, it emitted the intent of teleportation and teleported away with the shattered pieces of the body on the ground.
Yun Fanzi didn't bother with it. He raised his hand and grabbed. In the distance, the three forbidden mountains that originally belonged to the dead opponent flew over and surrounded him. The anomalous substances produced by the six mountains were incomparably dense, forming surging black fog in the sky.
The onlookers in the surroundings lowered their heads. The subsidiary races didn't have the qualifications to participate in the battle of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven's cultivators.
This was especially so during the Grand Hunt.
The Flame Moon Mystic Heaven's members were all considered heaven's chosen, each possessing remarkable abilities. This was one of the reasons why countless subsidiary races, after bowing their heads time and again, chose to submit from the depths of their hearts.
Yun Fanzi, who was in the air, swept his gaze across the ground.
He didn't fancy those affiliated races. After sweeping his gaze across them, he was about to leave. However, at this moment, his moving body suddenly paused and he abruptly turned his head to look into the distance.
His expression instantly changed. He could sense that one of the clones he had sent to the other forbidden zones had disappeared.
Generally speaking, as a member of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race, even if the clone died, its origin source would teleport back. Just like the person he had killed earlier, all his flesh and blood had teleported away in the end.
This was a tacit understanding between the cultivators of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven. Generally speaking, unless it was a life-and-death feud, the race wouldn't erase the other party's origin source. Most of them had some restraint and would wait for the final hunt in the Divine Realm before they staked everything.
It was rare for a clone's origin to dissipate in the first segment.
"Who was it?"
Yun Fanzi's gaze was gloomy. He let out a cold snort and walked in the direction where his clone had died.
At the same time, in the direction he was heading in, several regions away, Xu Qing and the captain were moving forward.
On the way, the captain's expression was sour. From time to time, he would look at Xu Qing but didn't say a word.
At first, Xu Qing remained composed. However, after being stared at again and again, he felt a little helpless. He took out a tangerine from his storage bag and threw it over.
"Eldest Senior Brother, do you want to eat a tangerine?"
The captain instinctively raised his hand and took it. However, when he heard this, he couldn't suppress the sourness in his heart anymore and spoke righteously.
"Little Qing, as a man, you have to rely on your own strength. How can it be manly if you depend on a woman? Good looks won't feed you, will they?"
When Xu Qing heard this, he corrected him.
"She isn't a woman, She is a god."
The captain took a deep breath and spoke disdainfully.
"So what if She is a god? I've also been with a god before, they are the same as well."
Upon hearing these fierce words, Xu Qing could only remain silent.
It was obvious the captain was still feeling bitter, so on the way, he would occasionally say some earth-shattering words…
Just like that, time flowed by and half a month passed.
The inner region of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven appeared in Xu Qing and the captain's eyes.
The reason why they were so fast was because of the region-level teleportation. This kind of teleportation couldn't be used by ordinary cultivators. It required a specific identity, such as the qualifications to hunt.
Originally, according to the captain's plan, it would take quite long for them to reach the inner region. However, Xu Qing took out the token…
This was also the source of the captain's bitterness on the way.
Now that he saw the inner region of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven, the captain, whose body was still a little swollen, sighed reluctantly. He took out a peach and bit it fiercely. Just as he was about to speak, his expression suddenly changed as he looked at the sky.
Xu Qing also lifted his head. The sky of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race's inner region was turning red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Following the red light, waves of terrifying pressure also spread in all directions. It was as though at the end of the red light, there was a colossus moving forward in the sky.
A long time later, this colossus was slowly reflected in Xu Qing and the captain's eyes.
It was the head of a nonhuman.
With brown skin and two horns on its head, it was oval-shaped, and there was a ring tied to its nose.
It had seven eyes and its eyes were grayish-white. One could see the figures of cultivators sitting cross-legged and meditating.
Every one of them was a cultivator of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven's main race. Their auras were astonishing.
This head was as large as a city. Even though it was very far away, people could still see it. The red light in the surroundings was emitted by this head.
Xu Qing didn't know the race this head belonged to but he could sense the remnant will of the Soul Accumulation through the pressure it emitted.
It seemed to be the head of a Soul Accumulation mighty figure!
Most importantly, there was also the feeling of some gods on it. After Xu Qing sensed it, he couldn't help but feel his heart palpitate.
However, at that moment, this head seemed to have been refined into a magic treasure. While its long hair danced in the wind, there was a large area in the middle where there was no hair.
There were actually buildings built there, and crowds of people could be seen bustling about.
It was like a market.
People would fly out from time to time.
Moreover, with its arrival, a strong wind fell from the sky, stirring up a storm on the ground. Xu Qing and the captain had no choice but to land a little.
"We actually encountered the Mystic Moon Square."
The captain stared at it for a while before reminiscence emerged in his eyes. After he gradually recognized it, his eyes revealed surprise.
"Mystic Moon Square?"
Xu Qing gazed at the captain.
Hearing Xu Qing's question, the captain lifted his chin.
"Didn't the god tell you?"
Xu Qing blinked. He knew that Eldest Senior Brother's heart ached along the way. Hence, he shook his head and revealed a regretful expression.
Noticing Xu Qing's expression, the captain experienced a little better and articulated proudly.
"Mystic Moon Square. This is a unique market style of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race. The Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race often doesn't have a fixed residence and instead moves around the three mobile Great Priests' tents."
"The Mystic Moon Square is the distinctive feature of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race's external trade."
"As for this head, judging from the aura of the gods on its body, there's a high chance that it came from the Divine Realm."
"The Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race likes to tear open Divine Realms during the Grand Hunt and barge in to hunt. If you say they're courting death, they succeed every time; if you say they aren't courting death, that's a Divine Realm."
"I wonder if the Sun, Moon, and Star Gods will one day provoke an existence they can't afford to offend and be slapped to death."
The captain sighed with emotion and muttered.
"If that day really comes, it's best to slap that old woman Moon Flame to death first before slapping that little slut Star Flame."
Xu Qing remained silent.
After the captain finished speaking, he seemed to feel much better.
"Since you have the Grand Hunt's token, we can enter. Let's go and see what good things are inside."
As he spoke, the captain's body swayed and he flew straight for the distant Mystic Moon Square. Xu Qing transformed into a rainbow behind him. As they got closer, the pressure from Mystic Moon Square became even more intense.
The hustle and bustle inside also became clearer. In fact, Xu Qing even saw many shops and stalls.
This reminded him of Ghost Lane.
It also had a head and was a market city. The two had some similarities.
Xu Qing wasn't sure if this was a coincidence or if there were some secrets hidden.
Hence, he gazed at the Little Shadow.
Back then, in Ghost Lane, that head was attracted by Little Shadow.
As for Little Shadow, after absorbing the forbidden zone from before, it seemed to be digesting and was in a state of hibernation.
Just like that, Xu Qing and the captain got closer to the Mystic Moon Square, and when they were less than 10,000 feet away from it, a deep roar that caused the color of the world to change rang out from it. It attracted countless lightning, and even the void rippled.
As the voice echoed, a strange ferocious beast rushed out of the Mystic Moon Square.
This ferocious beast wasn't very large, only a thousand feet long, but the pressure emanating from its body was almost as strong as that of the head. A casual glance could unsettle ordinary cultivators' minds as if they were being mesmerized.
This beast resembled a wolf, with a greenish black body and a turtle shell on its back. Its face was like that of a malicious ghost and white fur spread out on its head.
As for the ghost masks on its body, there were six of them.
Other than its head, there were ghost masks on its limbs, knees, and the end of its tail. It was a shocking sight.
There were also roars coming from the six sides.
Below it was also astonishing. It was a sea of ghosts that emerged out of thin air.
It swept up the sea of ghosts as it moved, as though wherever it passed, it represented death and calamity. As for the head, there was a person standing between the white fur.
This person wore purple-gold armor and had a tall figure. His golden hair fluttered in the wind and his gaze was like a torch, as though it could burn all living beings he gazed at.
There were also Soul Accumulation fluctuations that rose from his body, causing heavenly lightning to surge. He left the Mystic Moon Square on the strange beast, rushing toward the distant sky.ky.
In the Mystic Moon Square, all the Flame Moon Race members who saw this scene revealed fanaticism in their' eyes and diminished their heads to worship.
Xu Qing's heart was also stirred. The captain beside him transmitted his voice softly.
"I know the name of that ferocious beast. It's called a ghost carriage."
"I've never seen the person on it but there's only one type of cultivator who can wear purple-gold armor."
"Mystic Heaven General!"
