1321 Flaw of the Divine Art
Xu Qing wasnt the only one in history to cultivate both immortal and gods way.
Regardless of whether it was Old Master Seventh, Li Zihua, or other unknown experts, there were many people pursuing this path.
After all, this path, whether looked at from the present or the future, was undoubtedly considered the orthodox method and the most easily conceived route.
However, it was also because of this that it became the most difficult path.
This was because too many people had walked on it, but none of them had reached the end.
There were countless forks in this path. Before reaching the end, no one knew which path could go further and which path was correct.
The path that Erniu took wasnt this path, his path could be considered unorthodox.
Xu Qings path was also different.
It looked like he cultivated both the immortal and god way at the same time, but in reality, he used the method of Variant Immortals as the foundation for everything. They walked the path of devouring gods, simulating them, and then enslaving them.
On this path, gods were only nutrients.
Everything was to become the Variant Immortal!
Immortals who fed on gods.
At this moment, in this first battle after stepping into Nihility, Xu Qing clarified his path. A dark glint flashed in his eyes and the gods formed by his soul threads stepped into Flame Mystics great world one after another.
In an instant, the mountain peaks in the great world collapsed, and the world changed drastically.
From afar, one could see Li Zihuas figure. He was indomitable and incomparably huge. Wherever he passed, the world would collapse.
Crimson Goddess majestic body swept up blood mist in all directions. As She flew, all things wailed and withered.
There was also the eyeball that was suppressed by the Ghost Emperors magic artifact. It floated in the sky of this world and countless joss papers formed out of thin air around It, dancing in all directions.
Wherever they floated, the world would turn into paper. In fact, there was even a faint bizarre singing voice.
The fishbone god entered the rivers and seas, causing the rivers to flow in reverse and the seawater to turn pitch-black.
As for the eye of the Ancient Spirit Emperor, It was absorbing fortune and tainting it, changing the essence of this great world.
All of this was the invasion of the gods, invading and changing everything.
It was very similar to the scene that happened in the Wanggu Continent back then. It was just that the degree of difference was much greater and the fragmented-face had been changed to Xu Qing.
However, it still shocked everyone.
The descent of those gods caused the anomalous substances in Flame Mystics great world to erupt in an instant. Divine aura spread out and invaded the sky, the ground, and all existences in this great world.
It was turning into a forbidden zone!
If this succeeded, the existences in this world would have their fates change, and their life states would be changed until they became suitable for a world of gods.
What was even more terrifying was that during the process of transforming into a forbidden zone, soul threads appeared in Flame Mystics vast and peerless world!
They were new soul threads!
Although there werent many, only tens of thousands, the speed of their formation was astonishing. In the blink of an eye, it reached hundreds of thousands.
Not only was this world invaded, but it was also being devoured!
From this, it could be seen how terrifying Xu Qings combat strength and divine arts were after he achieved Nihility.
However, as the number one heavens chosen of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven, Flame Mystic naturally wasnt a weakling. Seeing that his great world had been invaded, his eyes flickered with endless stars.
As the stars flashed, his great world rumbled. The rivers, mountains, everything seemed to have their own will and transformed into spirits, beginning to resist.
Amidst this resistance, five blazing suns rose in his world, emitting his nomological laws.
They were his Heavenly Daos!
With the Heavenly Daos, the world awakened. Even though the will of this peerless world was being interfered with by the Ancient Spirit Emperor, it still appeared.
A battle with the gods.
At the same time, Flame Mystic looked at Xu Qing. The battle intent in his eyes instantly reached its peak. With a step, he shattered the void and headed straight for Xu Qing.
His aura was monstrous.
Xu Qing raised his head and his battle intent erupted as well. With a step, he swept up a destructive force and walked in the air.
A rainbow seemed to collide with the sun.
In an instant, the two of them met in the gap between the two worlds.
Flame Mystics speed was extremely fast, creating loud sonic booms. The instant he got close, his terrifying physical strength erupted.
In the blink of an eye, amidst a series of thunderclaps, the two of them exchanged over a hundred blows.
Every time, thunder rumbled in the world and the void in all directions was destroyed.
At the next instant, Flame Mystic took a deep breath and an endless aura rushed into his mouth. After he swallowed it, he didnt use any tricks, and simply slammed Xu Qing with his shoulder.
This simple collision contained the Great Dao, making it impossible to avoid. One could only face it.
Xu Qings eyes narrowed. He could sense a force that seemed to shake the mountains from this collision. He threw a punch.
A deafening sound rang out.
Xu Qing was forced back. Flame Mystics eyes were red. He actually ignored the backlash and relied on the injuries to increase his speed. His momentum rose again and he instantly got close to Xu Qing. He then squeezed fiercely toward Xu Qings neck.
It was as though he was going to crush Xu Qings throat!
What divine power is this!
Xu Qings expression darkened slightly. He could sense some kind of Great Dao contained in this move. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he opened his mouth and spat out. Immediately, three inverted mountains appeared in front of him.
One mountain was formed of ice, one mountain was formed of blood, and one mountain was formed of molten rocks.
At the next moment, the three mountains collapsed and Xu Qing retreated. However, Flame Mystics attack was still violent. His hand that seemed to be squeezing the throat clenched into a fist and punched out at Xu Qing.
It was the Indestructible Emperors Fist that had destroyed Ernius body with a single punch.
As soon as it appeared, the color of the world changed. The violent aura and the indescribable domineering feeling moved with the fist.
This wasnt the end. It was as though everything before was to accumulate strength. The instant the Indestructible Emperors Fist was used, Flame Mystics entire body shone with a piercing golden light.
This light erupted from his skin, flesh, tendons, bones, and blood.
The skin served as the outer defense, flesh as the adamantine, tendons for extending force, bones as the foundation, and blood as the essence source.
When combined, it was none other than...
Undying Five Elements!
Flame Mystics entire body emitted boundless golden light and his body also expanded explosively. He was like a mountain, as though he had entered some invincible state. His aura also reached its peak and he gathered all his physical divine arts toward Xu Qing, transforming them into a fist that could shatter the universe.
As the punch landed, the laws cracked and collapsed, shocking all living beings.
An intense light erupted from Xu Qings eyes, as well as the radiance of the morning glow. Flame Mystics series of consecutive moves and divine arts made him feel stunned.
I want this divine art!
Xu Qings eyes glinted and he didnt hesitate at all. The instant the other party attacked, Jiuli manifested outside Xu Qings body, enveloping his entire body and forming an ancient magus armor.
With the senses of the ancestral magus merging with him, his body swelled in an instant, transforming into a living ancestral magus.
Towering like a mountain peak, touching the sky, his aura dispersed through time, carrying ancient legacies and embodying the pinnacle of contemporary magi.
With the nine sons of the dragon swirled around him, the magus armor exuded unparalleled dominance, causing countless fierce beasts in the Mountains and Seas Region to roar and the bloodlines of the races present here to surge.
The feeling of primordial times, ancient intent, and the might of heaven and earth erupted from Xu Qings body.
He pressed his palm down on Flame Mystics punch.
The fist and palm collided in the air.
Flame Mystics entire body trembled. His body was fine but his mind was about to explode. An intense pain continued to erupt in his mind and he couldnt help but spit out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale and his eyes revealed intense unwillingness. However, his body was still forced back under the contact.
When the two of them came into contact, one could see the void shatter and split apart layer by layer, forming a black hole. It actually pulled two large worlds, tilting them.
There were also countless lightning dragons dancing chaotically in all directions, as though they had transformed into a huge lightning net that wanted to cover everything.
Among the two of them, one had a peerless divine art and the other was at the peak of the Magus Dao. The instant the two of them collided, the two worlds dimmed.
Only a storm that shook even the Soul Accumulation Realm exploded in all directions.
In this storm, Xu Qings figure was like an immortal or devil. His long hair fluttered as he walked out.
He was visibly moved and there was a strange glint in his eyes.
He could tell that it wasnt that Flame Mystics divine art was inferior to his Ancestral Magus Dao, but that the other partys cultivation art... was incomplete.
Unlike him, who had obtained a complete inheritance.
The other partys cultivation art was too extreme. It only had a corporal part and didnt enhance the soul.
It wasnt that Flame Mystic didnt have enough soul strength; on the contrary, his soul was much stronger than his peers. However, compared to the enhancement of the corporal body by this cultivation art, the soul became a weakness.
And Flame Mystic had lost on this point.
However, he was still terrifying.
Xu Qing felt that this cultivation art seemed to be able to be used at any cultivation level. Moreover, as his cultivation level increased, the more frightening he would be when he used this divine art. It was as though there was no upper limit!
However, at their level of cultivation, they couldnt allow any flaws.
A flaw was a flaw.
Hence, in the next breath, a chill rose in Xu Qings mind. He took a step toward Flame Mystic and the magus armor on his body actually automatically fell off, transforming into streams of light that entered the void.
Even ancestral magus senses separated on their own and disappeared from Xu Qings body. When they reappeared, they were above the head of the retreating Flame Mystic.
Flame Mystics expression changed drastically. The ancestral magus senses materialized and suppressed him.
The Jiuli broke through the void and surrounded Flame Mystic, instantly gathering toward him. There were sharp sounds targeting the soul emanating their mouths, complementing the soul-suppressing power of the also a sharp voice targeting the soul in its mouth, combined with the ancestral magus soul suppression.
They formed the power of immobilization!
Flame Mystics body trembled. He knew his weakness but the fact that Xu Qing could sense it so quickly made him anxious. Just as he was about to struggle, Xu Qing raised his right hand. Immediately, ripples appeared in the void in all directions and the location turned into water.
It reflected everything.
It was Fishing the Moon From the Well.
This divine power could freeze ones soul to begin with. The moment it appeared, it was enhanced by the ancestral magus and formed a divine power.
At the same time, seven lanterns flickered with a dim light behind Xu Qing. The Seven Lanterns Underworld Fire Curse was also targeted at the soul!
In terms of combat experience, regardless of whether it was when Xu Qing was young or after he stepped into cultivation, he had always fought with others, fought with the heavens, and fought with gods.
After countless life-and-death experiences, his combat ability had long reached an astonishing level.
As long as he caught a flaw, it would be life and death.
At that moment, all the spells targeting the soul erupted. In the great world that Xu Qings soul threads created, the three divine powers, Misfortune, Purple Moon, and Gods Curse, suddenly shone.
They landed behind Xu Qing.
Although there was a high chance that he wouldnt need to use his divine authority, Xu Qings personality determined that after he caught a flaw, he would go all out and not give the other party the slightest chance to turn the tables.
