How Much Do I Still Resemble My Old Self?

Since the arrival of the black-level holy lands, the wars in the southern, western, and northern Wanggu had intensified. Both sides had experienced victories and defeats, and the battles had become increasingly brutal.
Almost every moment, lives were reaped and battles erupted.
Wanggu was in chaos.
As for the Eastern Wanggu, the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven and the human race led the gathering of the various races to form a peerless array formation that divided the sky and earth.
Outside the array formation was the sky and four black-level holy lands.
Inside the array formation were all living beings of the Eastern Wanggu.
Although the Great Emperors of these four holy lands didnt appear again after the battle with the Human Emperor and the Flame Moon Gods, it was the same for the Flame Moon Gods.
Outsiders didnt know who had won and who had lost the battle between peak levels back then.
They only knew that the Human Emperor was active and still presiding over this war.
The war in Eastern Wanggu continued.
During this time, there were only small-scale battles. The Eastern Wanggu and the holy lands were trying to take control of the rhythm of the war.
Regardless of whether it was the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race or the human race, small-scale battles continued to erupt.
At that moment, there was such a small-scale battle being carried out outside the peerless array formation. There were many people from both sides participating in the battle, and they were densely packed together, forming countless black dots.
By now, Xu Qing and Erniu had teleported several times from Fenghai County as they moved toward the human races Grand Imperial Capital Region.
The journey was quite smooth.
They didnt waste much time on the way. It was just that outside the sentient ancient array formation, Erniu plucked a few more teleportation feathers...
Right now, as they appeared inside the array formation, rumbling sounds and screams rang out from the sky and immediately entered their ears.
These countless sounds echoed in all directions like muffled thunder. At the same time, the colorful spell lights also dyed the night sky with various colors.
They raised their heads and saw that under the array formation, groups of cultivators from various races of the Eastern Wanggu were fighting in an orderly manner and returning to recuperate.
Judging from the state of the returnees, they had clearly suffered great losses.
However, it was the same for the holy lands. Corpses fell and were destroyed by the array formation.
War...
Xu Qings expression was solemn. While he was paying attention to the battle outside the array, the teleportation array he appeared in was located in a heavily guarded military camp. Hence, many divine consciousnesses enveloped him solemnly from all directions.
There were also streams of killing aura that instantly locked onto him.
After sensing Xu Qings identity, these divine consciousnesses and auras dissipated.
After that, many figures flew over from all directions and bowed to greet Xu Qing.
The person in the lead was an old man.
Xu Qing had seen this person before. The other party was a Heavenly Marquis of the human race with the surname Chen.
Greetings, Grand Tutor!
The few Heavenly Kings are currently on the battlefield outside the array formation and cant return. I was ordered to preside over the situation here.
Also, Her Majesty has instructed us to tell you to head to the main palace immediately.
Heavenly Marquis Chen greeted and spoke solemnly.
Xu Qing nodded and looked at the battle in the sky. After that, his divine sense spread out and covered the military campsite. He saw countless soldiers from the various races recuperating.
His heart sank.
Compared to the misery here, what he saw on his way to the other places in the Eastern Wanggu was actually not bad.
This was because this place bore almost everything.
This place was not only the core of the Eastern Wanggu but also the frontline.
Hows the situation?
Xu Qing slowly asked.
Its still manageable.
Heavenly Marquis Chen grinned. However, the aura he emitted was a little unstable. Clearly, he was injured. Just as he was about to continue speaking, a rumbling sound echoed outside the array formation.
Among the countless densely-packed black dots formed by the two sides, a dazzling light erupted.
It was a middle-aged burly man from a holy land. He had huge wings on his back and his entire body emitted a bloodthirsty aura. His cultivation level had even reached the Soul Accumulation Five Worlds.
Such a cultivation base surpassed the vast majority of Heavenly Kings of the human race.
This was especially prominent in this small-scale battle. Although the Soul Accumulation cultivators of the various races were participating, they were all held back by high-level enemy cultivators. Hence, at this moment, this person was freely starting a massacre.
It was as though he was going to tear a path through the battlefield.
Behind him were more than a thousand Demon Feather cultivators, following him like guards.
Their target was none other than the isolating array formation.
Seeing this, the pupils of Heavenly Marquis Chen constricted but he didnt panic. He naturally had a way to deal with unexpected situations.
Very soon, the light of the peerless array formation circulated and was about to stop the enemy.
However, at the next instant, Xu Qings figure disappeared from the spot.
When he appeared, he was already outside the array formation.
An even more intense sound than before instantly rang out clearly from all directions. Amidst the countless ear-deafening sounds, Xu Qing looked at the Demonic Feather cultivator who was rushing over.
This burly man also noticed Xu Qing. He let out a cold snort and didnt slow down at all as he walked over.
All of this took a long time to describe but in reality, it happened in the blink of an eye.
In the array formation, Heavenly Marquis Chen was shocked. He knew that Xu Qings status was extremely high but his combat strength seemed to have barely reached the initial standard of a Heavenly King. Now, he was facing an expert with the Soul Accumulation Five Worlds realm...
He immediately became nervous.
Erniu coughed at the side.
What are you nervous about? You dont have to worry.
Although he said that, how could Heavenly Marquis Chen listen?
He wasnt the only one who was nervous. On the battlefield, the few Heavenly Kings of the various races who were entangled also immediately sensed this and recognized Xu Qing. Their hearts trembled and some even cursed.
Clearly, in their judgment, they didnt think that Xu Qing could resist that cultivator with five worlds realm.
They wanted to help but they couldnt withdraw immediately.
They could only watch helplessly as the burly man rushed toward Xu Qing.
Nonsense, why did Xu Qing appear randomly!
Activate the array formation and spread it to envelop Xu Qing!
Hurry!
The array formation rumbled and shone like flares, wanting to protect Xu Qing.
However, through this action, the burly man indirectly realized that Xu Qings identity wasnt ordinary. After taking a closer look, his eyes lit up as he recognized Xu Qings identity.
Their Demon Feather Holy Land naturally had the intel of the important figures of the human race, especially Xu Qing. He had caused such a huge commotion previously.
Because of him, a holy land had fallen.
Because of him, yellow-level holy lands were expelled from the Eastern Wanggu.
However, what they knew was that Xu Qing had been captured by Transient Evil and was rescued later on.
They didnt know the details of this, nor did they know that Transient Evil died in Xu Qings hands, or knew Xu Qings true combat strength.
Hence, the burly mans eyes lit up and he let out a sinister laugh. With the enhancement of his speed, he headed straight for Xu Qing.
However... the instant his figure got close, Xu Qing expressionlessly raised his hand.
He clenched his fist at the burly man.
With this clench, all sounds in the area of 5,000 kilometers around Xu Qing instantly disappeared!
The sounds were stolen!
And the silence only lasted for a breath of time.
In the next instant, these sounds were controlled. They gathered around the burly man, forming a huge sphere.
It enveloped the burly man and the thousand guards behind him.
The sphere shook crazily as terrifying ripples spread inside.
Heart-rending shouts immediately rang out from the burly man and his guards.
These sounds added even more lethality to the sound authority.
Immediately, one-third of the guards bodies collapsed and shattered into pieces. As for the Devil Feather burly man, his expression had completely changed. He could hear a blurry murmur.
This murmur grew increasingly intense. As it repeated, an ancient power followed the murmur and spread crazily and greedily throughout his body, seeping into his mind and replacing his understanding.
It also stole the concept of his voice.
Regardless of whether it was the sound of his body, soul, or even his self, they were all stripped away.
This lasted until... all the guards exploded into blood mist!
After that, the sphere disintegrated and transformed into countless sounds again. With Xu Qing as the center, they spread out in all directions with rumbling sounds.
Wherever it passed, casualties appeared throughout the battlefield.
Although this scene happened in a corner of the battlefield, it affected the entire battlefield in the blink of an eye. It even caused the expressions of the Heavenly Kings of the various races and the Soul Accumulation cultivators of the holy lands to change drastically!
Truly... Xu Qings attack had killed too quickly and now, it had affected the entire situation.
The cultivators of the Eastern Wanggu were shaken.
The cultivators of the holy land were horrified.
Gods authority!
Theres something wrong with this human!
On the holy lands side, waves of emotions stirred in their hearts. It was just that... it was very difficult for war to change because of a single person unless this person possessed the peak power to suppress everything.
Hence, at the next instant, a terrifying divine sense directly spread out from a floating holy land in the distance. A Ruler was about to descend!
Similarly, an aura of a god spread out from the humans side and faced each other from afar.
It was the Corpse God Mystic War!
As these two forces restrained each other, Xu Qings figure disappeared and returned to the array formation. On his way back, he detonated all the power of sound he had scattered on the battlefield, adding the curse of misfortune.
A rumbling sound surged into the sky outside the array formation, forming a storm of sound.
The moods of the cultivators from the various races in the Eastern Wanggu were also stirred. Under the decisive orders of the few Heavenly Kings, they seized this opportunity and immediately pounced over.
The situation of this small-scale battle instantly tilted.
Facing such a situation, bell chimes began to ring out from the holy lands side and they started to retreat...
Two hours later, this battle came to an end. The moment the cultivators returned, they were all discussing Xu Qings appearance.
As for Xu Qing, he had already left with Erniu.
He walked into the human capital and arrived in front of the main hall.
Xu Qing had already changed into the grand tutors official robe. Erniu also wore the imitation Mystic Heaven Armor that the human race had forged for him.
This armor called Great Heavenly Dipper was personally supervised by Erniu according to his needs back then. He rarely wore it and seemed to like it very much.
Right now, he wore it and stood proudly in front of the hall. His entire body shone under the sunlight, causing him to look like a person of light.
From afar, he really looked a little mighty.
Not long after the two of them stood solemnly outside the hall, a low voice rang out from inside the hall.
Summoning the Grand Tutor and Great Heavenly Dipper!
Xu Qing and Erniu simultaneously stepped toward the main hall. Inside the hall, they saw the gathered ministeres, and also saw the Empress sitting at the top with Ning Yan who was looking excited by her side.
Greetings, Your Majesty!
Xu Qing bowed.
Erniu also greeted loudly.
The Empress nodded slightly and replied.
Its good that youre back. Take a seat.
Xu Qing took a step forward, and arrived at the second seat among the thirty- three Heavenly King seats below the Empress.
He sat upright and gazed at the ministers.
This position was second only to the Human Emperor and King Zhen Yan who wasnt present!
The ministers lowered their heads respectfully under Xu Qings gaze.
Even Ning Yan bowed to Xu Qing.
Regardless of whether it was because of his reliance on Xu Qing in the past or Xu Qings identity as his Grand Tutor, Ning Yan was sincerely convinced and his heart stirred.
In fact, in his heart, Xu Qing was even closer than his mother.
When Erniu saw this, he felt a little envious. However, very soon, his attention was placed on an old acquaintance standing in the distance. He was first surprised, then amused. He even took out the Holy Heavenly Vine and played with it.
This lasted until Xu Qings gaze swept past the ministers below and also landed on this cultivator...
This Demon Feather cultivator, who was being stared at by Erniu and Xu Qing, had mixed feelings. He took a deep breath and bowed slightly.
Feng Lintao greets the Grand Tutor.
