Taboo!
Just like how Xu Qing had the right to use the projection of the sect's magic treasure after he became a Sequence, the heaven's chosens of the Seven Sects Alliance could also use their sects' foundation.
However, very few people had the qualifications. Moreover, they were treated as encouragement and protection.
After all, the magic treasures of the Seven Sects Alliance were in the levels of Taboo. There were many restrictions when using them. If they wanted to maximize their effect, they needed a specific moment.
Saintly Star had extremely rich combat experience. He didn't summon the Taboo projection immediately because he wanted to create an opportunity to perfectly use the power of the Taboo.
He had realized that it wasn't very easy to snatch Xu Qing's life lantern. He had to prevent the other party from escaping at the critical moment or use a jade talisman like the disorder teleportation.
Moreover, he had paid attention to Xu Qing's instinctive actions of wanting to crush a jade slip twice previously. Although he pretended not to notice, he could roughly guess Xu Qing's thoughts.
In his opinion, this battle was just fishing.
He had to wait for the other party to exhaust all the methods and be severely injured, only then would the process be smoother.
Hence, he had been waiting. When he felt that the situation had worsened, he took out the flesh brush during the battle.
Regardless of whether this brush could heavily injure Xu Qing or not, he planned to use its destruction as a cover to display the curse power of the flesh brush and trap Xu Qing.
This way, he could create an opportunity for himself to activate the Taboo and form an inescapable net. This would make all Xu Qing's escape methods useless and allow him to successfully obtain his life lantern.
Xu Qing's expression changed. He was surrounded by flesh hands that were incomparably tenacious. They bound him tightly from every direction, and he was unable to break free. He immediately tried to crush the jade slip in his hand.
However, it was clearly too late.
In an instant, the sky turned red. This red color appeared abruptly and covered the surroundings in the blink of an eye. It looked demonic and bizarre, turning this area into a blood-colored world that enveloped Xu Qing.
Moreover, after this blood-colored world was formed, it emitted the ability to distort space, blocking all teleportation within its boundary. At the same time, the blood world was still shrinking and the range was constantly decreasing.
The sealing power continued to erupt, as though it was isolating this place from the outside world and completely sealing it off.
A red seed appeared in this blood world.
However, this seed was different from when the seed that had appeared in the Minor Affairs Sect. This blood-colored seed was illusory and not corporeal, but its might was also very astonishing. After it appeared, it fell to the ground and transformed into a blood-colored tree.
As soon as this tree appeared, a violent pressure spread everywhere. The tree swayed slightly; Xu Qing shook violently and he spat out blood. It was as though an indescribable force wanted to erase him.
Saintly Star laughed loudly. His eyes revealed greed as he used all his speed to head straight for Xu Qing.
Miemeng let out a cry behind him and the life lantern canopy above his head shone. He wanted to completely kill Xu Qing in this sealed space and snatch the life lantern.
"In the seal of the Taboo projection, only one of us can leave!"
Saintly Star got close and attacked. Xu Qing spat out a mouthful of blood and kept retreating. Not only was there a sealing power here, but there was also a suppression, causing the life fires in his body to sway intensely.
Seeing that the strange tree was about to sway, a cold glint flashed in Xu Qing's eyes as he spoke in a low voice.
"I summon Seven Blood Eyes' magic treasure projection!"
The Seven Blood Eyes also had a magic treasure but it hadn't reached the level of Taboo. Xu Qing had never summoned it either.
As soon as he finished speaking, this blood-colored world instantly shook. The sky churned as though an external force had descended, wanting to tear this world apart. An eye vaguely appeared in the sky.
This eye showed no emotions. After it appeared in the sky, it stared at the projection of the Taboo magic treasure below.
The projection of the Taboo magic treasure shook. However, it was obvious that there was a difference in levels between the two sides. The Taboo projection didn't collapse and the sealed Blood World didn't shatter. Xu Qing couldn't escape from it.
However, this was a magic treasure projection after all. After it appeared, although it couldn't open the Taboo realm, it still froze the blood tree inside, preventing it from swaying. The suppression on Xu Qing was reduced but it was still there.
"A mere lower sect's magic treasure can't shake my sect's Taboo. Xu Qing, this blood world is your burial ground!" The greed in Saintly Star's eyes intensified. He laughed loudly and quickly chased after Xu Qing with all his might.
Xu Qing's expression was gloomy. The Golden Crow behind him cried out and resisted with all its might. It was the same for black umbrella life lantern. It spread black flames everywhere as Xu Qing continued to fight against Saintly Star in the sealed blood world.
Xu Qing was suppressed by the blood world, so he had clearly weakened. He began to retreat in defeat. When Saintly Star saw this, his aura soared and became increasingly violent.
A while later, when the blood world shrunk to less than 100 feet and the large tree inside also shrunk, a rumbling sound rang out. Blood flowed out of Xu Qing's mouth as he retreated. He held a jade slip in his hand and quickly looked around.
"You don't have to look anymore. You can't escape from here. Even I can't control this world. I can only let it dissipate on its own."
