Chapter 1579: God Rivers Ferryman

Editor: Atlas Studios

Moreover, the other party seemed to have locked onto this place long ago and was rushing over with an imposing aura.

Xu Qings eyes instantly narrowed and his breathing became slightly hurried. The life-and-death crisis in his heart completely erupted.

Before this, he had only glimpsed the countless star marks of the token holders across the entire Southern Starfield when he was integrating the qualifying token.

Although the stars shone with different intensities, they were just a blur in his mind.

But now, this particular star had appeared, and Xu Qjng immediately felt the difference.

It was merely a mark, yet it caused his heart to race with anxiety.

Even though the resplendent light was so far away, it actually passed through his perception and reached a piercing level.

This person... is extremely strong!

His cultivation shouldnt be at the mid-stage Ruler Realm. Theres a high chance that hes already at the late-stage Ruler Realm!

The person I killed earlier was waiting for this person!

Coupled with his previous analysis, Xu Qjng felt a lingering fear.

It was clear that if he hadnt decisively broken free from the situation earlier- risking injury to avoid being entangled and delaying his actionsand if he hadnt killed the youth with the birthmark on his right cheek... he wouldnt have been able to detect the situation unfolding five million kilometers away with his qualifying token at this very moment.

Moreover, had he been entangled, the opponent would have inevitably closed in on him.

At that time, only death awaited him.

In fact, he wouldnt even have the possibility of escaping.

Now, although his injuries werent light, at least... he wasnt so passive and had more choices.

Hence, Xu Qing took a deep breath and displayed his full speed without any hesitation.

He spared no expense and instantly teleported into the distance, trying to distance himself.

He was very clear that with his current combat strength, he could kill an early- stage Ruler. Coupled with Ninth Grandpas sword energy, if he risked injuries, he could instantly kill an early-stage Ruler.

However, Xu Qing didnt think that he could win against a middle stage Ruler with the last remaining stream of sword energy.

Not to mention this terrifying existence that he suspected to be at the latestage Ruler Realm.

Moreover, his current injuries made it unsuitable to continue fighting.

However, although Xu Qing was fast, that pursuer was even faster than him.

Moreover, the pursuers tokens perception range must have reached an astonishing level, far exceeding five million kilometers.

Hence, Xu Qjngs every move was clearly within the other partys perception. His current speed was so fast that Xu Qjng felt that the latter was like a shooting star.

The distance between them was visibly shortening.

A sense of danger erupted from every inch of Xu Qings flesh, soul, and subconscious. It became a storm that rumbled endlessly.

Whether it was his blood, bones, or everything else, they seemed to have become independent existences at this moment, each emitting danger.

Although I was decisive when I attacked earlier, from the looks of it, I was still too slow.

Xu Qjngs breathing was hurried as he tried his best to calm down.

He understood that the more critical the life-and-death moment, the more he couldnt afford to panic.

With my current speed, Ill be caught in about eight minutes at most...

With the enhancement of my authorities, I can buy some more time, but even then, it will only be fifteen minutes at best...

Fifteen minutes...

He recalled the map. Under the instant scan of his inner divine sense, he instantly locked onto a location.

God Blood River!

The ferryman!

This is my first time crossing the river, so I only have to pay six days of lifespan, and I will gain absolute safety!

Xu Qing immediately adjusted his direction and sped away.

At the same time, he performed a series of hand seals with both hands. At the next instant, blood immediately spurted out of his skinless body.

The blood turned into fog and burned.

This was the blood-ignition technique. It was a speed enhancement technique Xu Qing had learned from Erniu back then.

However, he couldnt use this method too much as it caused considerable damage to the body.

However, now that he was in a life-and-death crisis, Xu Qjng naturally couldnt care less. In the blink of an eye, his speed soared and the range of his teleportation also increased greatly, directly disappearing from the spot.

When he appeared, he was already 500,000 kilometers away.

However, although this area was at the border between the West and South, it was relative to the overall Southern Starfield. In reality, there was still a vast distance between this location and the God Blood River.

Hence, after he appeared, Xu Qjng immediately spat out another mouthful of blood.

He teleported again.

Just like that, after using it more than ten times in a row, he moved over five million kilometers. His injuries were even more serious, and the weakness emitted by his body was also intense.

Fortunately, it was effective and barely controlled the distance between him and his pursuers to about four million kilometers.

However, although this distance would take a long time for low-level cultivators to cross, it was not much to experts.

Thus, when the blood-burning technique could no longer be sustained, Xu Qings Five Elements techniques erupted with a thunderous force. First, water and fire clashed, creating an explosive power through the opposition of yin and yang.

The explosion transformed into impact, increasing his speed.

After that, with a raise of Xu Qings hand, the ground churned. Many high walls rose from the ground, directly reaching the sky as a blockade.

In the blink of an eye, the world rumbled and the number of high walls raised reached 100,000.

It was astonishingly vast.

Next was the wind!

Xu Qing originally didnt have wind authority.

However, in the battle with the youth earlier, in that life-and-death crisis, his comprehension ability was also stimulated.

The characteristics of wood were similar to those of wind.

Both possessed vitality and adaptability.

Therefore, the power of wood ascended and flowed like the wind.

This was... wood as wind in the sky!

At the next instant, with the enhancement of this force, Xu Qings speed soared again.

As everything intertwined, his speed reached the extreme of his body. The world rumbled as he produced a powerful sonic boom.

However, Xu Qjng was still not satisfied. This was because the pursuer had clearly determined Xu Qjngs path of retreat and had also increased his speed accordingly.

He actually closed the distance between them to 2,500,000 kilometers.

Even at such a large range, Xu Qjng felt the dense baleful aura behind him and the piercing pain in his back. It was as though there was a blazing sun behind him that wanted to burn everything.

At this moment, the feeling of weakness was suppressed by danger. Xu Qings eyes were red as he activated his spatial art.

Overlapping and grids appeared in the sky. Relying on this technique, his speed became even more terrifying, surpassing the burden of his body, causing his entire body to crack.

However, Xu Qjng didnt care about these. With a boom, he teleported another 500,000 kilometers.

At the same time, the time art enveloped his entire body and locked down the flow of time in his body. This was to solidify his body so it didnt collapse.

As for the walls behind him, rumbling sounds rang out. The power of fire that was buried by Xu Qing was also erupting.

They obstructed the pursuer.

Although the effect was average, even if they delayed the pursuer for just a breath of time, it was incredibly precious to the current Xu Qing.

Finally, in the race against time and with all his effort, Xu Qjng, using his utmost abilities, crossed an endless expanse and saw in the distance a vast blood river that seemed boundless.

The river was so immense that it could be described as reaching the heavens.

It even surpassed the size of the ocean.

The stench of blood spreading from it was incredibly intense, permeating all around.

The moment Xu Qing saw the river, his vision blurred between weakness and intensity, but it didnt prevent him from immediately spotting a lone black boat anchored at the riverbank!

That lone boat looked ordinary. It was docked on the shore and there was a person sitting on it.

This person wore a straw rain cape and a conical bamboo hat. He held a pipe in his hand and was smoking.

Xu Qing had never seen what the ferry boat looked like; the map only provided an introduction without specific details. However, he didnt have time to verify it. The moment he saw the lone boat, Xu Qing activated the last blood ignition teleportation he had been holding.

At the next instant, his figure directly appeared above the lone boat.

However, at this moment, the feeling of life-and-death crisis erupted violently. A terrifying force suddenly rose and affected the entire sky. At the same time, a figure that emitted endless heat had caught up.

He punched out at Xu Qing.

The Great Emperor Shield instantly appeared.

The Great Emperor Scissors was also shining.

There was no need to hold back Ninth Grandpas sword energy at this moment.

Xu Qing even took out the Emperor Sword.

He resisted with all his might.

The might of the late-stage Ruler Realm was fully displayed at this moment. The Great Emperor Shield rumbled and a crack appeared on it that sent it flying back.

It was the same for the Great Emperor. Because there were many cracks to begin with, it directly shattered into pieces under this punch.

As for Ninth Grandpas sword energy, although it was powerful, when combined with the shield and scissors, it merely weakened the power of that punch.

Finally, Xu Qings Emperor Sword blocked the remaining force of the punch.

Amid the rumbling, Xu Qings body trembled, his flesh tearing apart in large chunks as if it were being sliced. However, he didnt disintegrate. Instead, he used the force of the impact to fall onto the boat.

The moment he landed, the boat shook. Xu Qjng, who was lying there, was already on the verge of death.

However, he held onto the Emperor Sword tightly.

As for the figure in the sky, it didnt stop. At this moment, it approached and lifted its palm... grabbing at Xu Qjng.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and was about to swallow the item in his mouth.

But just at the moment when his hand reached out to grab Xu Qjng, the ferryman on the boat, dressed in a straw cape and wearing a conical bamboo hat, who was exhaling smoke, gently tapped his smoking pipe on the deck of the boat.

Without a sound, the figure who had struck from the heavens suddenly trembled all over. His outstretched right hand instantly blurred and vanished, and his form quickly rolled back in mid-air, dissipating all its aura, transforming into a red-haired young man.

He looked at the ferryman with fear and bowed.

Senior, I havent broken any rules. Although this person has boarded the ferry, he hasnt paid yet. According to the rules... before he pays, he is not a river traveler and can be killed by me!

Bullsh*t! The ferryman snorted.

This word was like a world-destroying thunder when it landed in the red- haired youths ears. His entire body trembled and he spat out blood as he was forced back again.

I have the final say on my boat.

After saying that, the ferryman slowly turned his head and glanced at Xu Qing, casually sweeping his gaze past the Emperor Sword in Xu Qings hand. After that, he calmly spoke.

Pay up!

Xu Qing immediately nodded and released his vitality.

The ferryman was satisfied. He raised his hand and grabbed. After taking out a certain amount of vitality, he stood up and stretched. He then took out an oar from somewhere and paddled across the blood river.

Immediately, ripples appeared on the river as the boat sailed away from the shore.

Only the gloomy-looking red-haired youth was left in the sky.

After staring in the direction of the boat for a long time, a cold glint flashed in the red-haired youths eyes. He pondered if he should wait for the ferryman to appear and cross the river to the West before continuing to pursue.

However, he felt that doing this wasnt worth it.

On one hand, I will waste the ferrying opportunity. On the other hand, my family is in the South. Going to the West and returning will waste sixty years of my lifespan...

Also, that persons injuries are so serious that hes at the end of his life. It will be extremely difficult for him to recover from such injuries.

The youth weighed the pros and cons before turning to leave.

At the same time, on the blood river, in the boat, the ferrymans gaze landed on Xu Qing who was lying there and slowly spoke.

The thing in your mouth can clearly heal your injuries instantly after swallowing it. However, you brat, you can actually resist not swallowing it. All to make it look like youre about to die so that kid wont pursue you. You really went to great lengths.

After his secret was exposed, Xu Qing hurriedly struggled to stand up and bowed respectfully.

Thank you for saving me, Senior.

Shut up. I dont like chatty people, especially those who carry the stench of a god.

The ferrymans gaze landed on Xu Qjngs empty shoulder. He then ignored him and continued to smoke.

Xu Qjng silently bowed again. He then moved toward the end of the boat and sat cross-legged there, silently recuperating.
