Chapter 1268: A Friend from Afar

Outside the small world, the battle between heaven and earth was already intense.

Blood rain poured down from the sky. Countless little people waved their machetes and kept chopping down trees and mountains.

The earth and mountains rumbled, and withered trees filled the sky, struggling with all their might.

In the small world, blood rain fell like rain, and a massacre was taking place!

The mournful roars before death, as well as the roars that spread in all directions, and the fluctuations of divine spells, dyed the whole world with colorful lights.

This was a deal.

One side's condition was to kill all the gods!

Only in this way would the concealed traction and the missing fragments be revealed once again.

Although … from Xu Qing's point of view, there was indeed a possibility of fraud in his judgment, he still chose to kill.

Because the awakening of the golden rat could not be an accident.

Therefore, the blood rain in this small world was getting bigger and bigger.

The corpses of the gods fell from the sky and crashed on the ground, shattering the ruins and stirring up dust, mixing with the blood rain into an endless blood mist.

At this moment, as the blood mist churned, the immortal embryo of Xu Qing's figure was faintly discernible.

At the same time, he could also see the three God Altars that he had paid attention to. In this blood mist, Xu Qing was sometimes close and sometimes far.

They were the Eyeball, the Old Woman, and Withered Glory God (half-god Begonia and half-body Ashes god)!

The Godly Authority from them was erupting.

Especially the eyeball with bronze chimes growing out of its pupil, its gaze made Xu Qing feeling similar to Zhou Zhengli's constitution. At this moment, in the blood mist.

The moment it locked onto Xu Qing …

The sound of a bell shook the sky, buzzing and trembling.

It turned into a divine sound that made people go crazy!

It was going to take Xu Qing's soul!

There was also a bronze color that rapidly spread in all directions, as if it was going to invade the blood mist and condense Xu Qing's flesh and blood!

In addition, star sand wrapped in distorted divine prose poured down from the slits of the eyeball, turning into a torrent that was going to block Xu Qing's path forward.

Along with it, the Buddha's palm-shaped suction cup at the end of the eyeball was a huge suction force that enveloped Xu Qing, wanting to devour his body.

At the same time, the old woman and Withered Glory God were also erupting.

In the blood mist, Xu Qing's eyes flashed. He knew that time was of the essence, and things would change if he delayed!

Therefore, the sooner this massacre ended, the better.

When he thought of this, determination rose in Xu Qing's heart. As the suction force enveloped him, he did not hesitate and let go of all resistance, allowing the strange bronze eye to pull him in.

In fact, it even took the initiative to increase the speed at which he was being sucked over.

In an instant, the blood mist churned, obscuring the view of the outside world. The fighting within the blood mist was impossible to see from the outside world, and only the rumbling sounds could be heard from within.

That was the eruption of Divine Arts from several God Altars.

Accompanying Xu Qing's muffled groan was the sound of bells ringing.

In the next instant, Xu Qing's figure appeared in front of the godly spirit with blood gushing out of his mouth as the mist grew thinner.

He stood there, covered in blood. However, he didn't stop for even a moment as he stabbed the metal skewer into the eye!

The bronze chime vibrated and let out an unprecedented mournful cry.

Countless faces appeared on the surface of the bell, all of them twisting in pain. The weeping became corporeal, transforming into blood-colored curse symbols that shot out from the eye and enveloped Xu Qing.

At the same time, the countless tentacles of the eyeball struggled madly and stabbed towards Xu Qing like sharp blades.

They seemed to want to push Xu Qing away …

In the distance, the other God Altars took this opportunity to rush over.

Xu Qing's eyes were filled with viciousness. He allowed the tentacles to pierce through his body. He didn't care about his injuries and the spilling of blood. The metal skewer in his hand erupted with all his strength.

Amidst the rumbling, the metal skewer directly pierced through the bronze eye!

The eyeball shook violently!

The bronze eye cracked, and sticky golden divine blood seeped out!

Then, the power of the immortal embryo in Xu Qing's body erupted, and a terrifying immortal aura poured in.

The eyeball was unstoppable as it exploded into a rain of blood.

It scattered in all directions.

Every drop of blood reflected Xu Qing's figure in the blood mist as he was swarmed by the other God Altars and many Divine Fires.

The blood mist churned again!

After a few breaths, the old woman's figure could be seen. Then, she sped away, wanting to leave the area of the blood mist.

Behind her was Xu Qing's blood-colored body. He stepped on the broken Begonia flowers and flashed through the blood mist, pursuing her relentlessly.

Vaguely, he seemed to be seriously injured.

But his killing intent was extremely strong. The blood intent all over his body was monstrous, and it seemed to have merged with the blood mist that filled the small world.

Behind him was the divine body of Withered Glory God, who had a divine power similar to that of time and space, which was divided into two.

Half of the Begonia flowers had withered, and the ashes of the other half were drifting away.

His soul lamp had been extinguished, and the drowning divine soul in the lamp flame had also turned into ashes.

He killed the eyeball first because the eyeball could lock onto Xu Qing's body.

Then he killed Withered Glory God because his divine power could supplement Xu Qing's constitution. It could be considered nourishment in this exchange of injuries for killing!

As for now, Xu Qing wanted to kill the old woman!

After the old woman witnessed Xu Qing kill many gods in a short period of time, including the eyeball and Withered Glory God, she instinctively felt that her life was in danger.

At this moment, she was fleeing at full speed.

She didn't want to participate in it anymore.

But the churning of the blood mist instantly swallowed her figure again.

A moment later, as a shrill sound echoed, the blood mist that filled the small world finally dissipated, revealing the blood-colored sky.

The old woman's figure rushed out again, but she was in an extremely sorry state.

Behind her, under the blood-colored sky, Xu Qing stood in mid-air. His robe was soaked in divine blood and turned dark gold. 36,000 broken human-faced stars floated around him, and the broken star cores still had unextinguished divine fire pulsating on them.

As for the ground below … countless divine remains could be seen.

Xu Qing licked the blood scabs at the corner of his mouth and looked at the old woman who was fleeing in horror in the distance. His figure suddenly blurred, leaving only a pierced afterimage.

When he condensed again, he was already beside the old woman.

No matter how the old woman tried to dodge, it was useless. Amidst her horror and despair, Xu Qing's right fingernail had already pierced into the old woman's throat bone without hesitation and pinched it.

The power of the immortal embryo instantly crawled all over the old woman's body.

The broken throat made a gurgling sound, and the golden light in the old woman's eyes surged, but it turned turbid under the erosion of the immortal spirit.

In the end, she became a dried corpse.

Xu Qing let go of his hand and suddenly turned his head, looking at a void expressionlessly.

That void shattered in an instant.

A dwarf who staggered backward and spat out blood was revealed.

At this moment, his expression was ugly, his body was weak, and his eyes were filled with horror.

He had also attacked in the blood mist before, but the continuous injuries outside caused him to almost be killed after fighting with Xu Qing in the blood mist. He quickly hid with heavy injuries and watched from the outside.

He intended to let the other god followers exhaust Xu Qing, so that he could create an opportunity for himself to attack.

He also had the intention of capturing him alive.

However, after he left in the blood mist, the scenes of slaughter that erupted in a short period of time caused his mind to tremble violently. Even though he knew that the other party was strong, his heart was still in turmoil at this moment.

Especially when Xu Qing looked at him. The moment their gazes met, the uneasiness in his mind grew stronger. His weak body instinctively retreated, and words came out of his mouth quickly.

"Fellow Daoist, the revival of my race's True God is the most important to me, and the True God has promised you … If you leave with me, I will open the exit and let you leave!"

He knew that the possibility of the other party believing him at this moment was not high, so what he needed was to use these words to make the other party show even the slightest bit of hesitation.

And with the help of this hesitation …

Thoughts flashed through his mind, but … before he could finish thinking, he suddenly lowered his head and saw that his divine body was melting.

This melting did not alert him in the slightest, nor did he feel any pain or abnormality. Everything was silent.

As for the source, it was the black thread that had wrapped around his ankle at some point in time!

The thread was following his skin and engraving itself into his divine body and divine soul.

"Divine Curse!“

The dwarf's expression changed drastically, and he cried out in alarm.

In the next instant, Xu Qing's figure had already disappeared, and he appeared in front of the dwarf god like a ghost. With a thunderous momentum, he raised his right hand, and his fingertips, accompanied by the reverberation of the bell, brushed past the dwarf's forehead.

The dwarf's face was distorted, and he wanted to resist, but the continuous injuries and heavy injuries in the blood mist, as well as the outbreak of the god group, had made him extremely weak.

Coupled with the arrival of the bell, all possibilities were cut off.

Therefore, in the blink of an eye, his body trembled, and countless golden blood threads drilled out of his seven orifices. These threads rose into the air and weaved into a new blood rain.

As his body collapsed with a bang, the blood sprinkled into the world.

Xu Qing stood in the air, letting the blood rain wash the wounds on his body.

In this battle, his injuries were extremely serious, but at this moment, he forcibly suppressed them. After raising his spirit to perceive the reappearance of the traction and the clear location of the fragment, he dragged his exhausted body and left in a flash.

Shuttling through the fragment worlds, he finally found the place where the fragment was located with his perception. He found the traces of the golden rat in the ruins!

It was grass clippings all over the ground.

They formed an array made of star ring grass clippings!

The arrangement of the structure was not like that of a cultivator or a god, but more like the innate means of the golden rat.

Looking at this array, Xu Qing was deep in thought. He did not know where this teleportation array led to, but he could sense that after this array was opened, he needed two specific items to use it for teleportation.

One was the star ring grass of the same origin, and the other was the aura of the golden rat, which was also the aura of the Distant Reality Beast.

Other than that, there was no other way.

Only by having these two items at the same time could he perceive and teleport.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes.

"Back then, when I was in the outer sea of the Wanggu Continent, I met the Immortal Venerable who was pursuing the golden rat … He guided me to the fifth star ring.

So, I came to the fifth star ring.

On the battlefield, I was accidentally teleported to the fourth star ring …

When I was healing in the fourth star ring, the True God's divine sense swept over, so I had to hide in this secret realm.

And there happened to be a battle between two True Gods here …

And it happened that in this small world, the golden rat woke up and sensed its kind.

Then, I saw a teleportation array made of star ring grass clippings here, and the last thing I needed was the star ring grass that the Immortal Venerable gave me. "

Xu Qing was silent.

"Did you want to save me, or did you want me to go here from the beginning?"

Xu Qing looked at the teleportation array in front of him and murmured.

After a while, his eyes were filled with determination. No matter what, this was his only way out, so he was about to step in.

But at this moment …

A voice full of vicissitudes echoed in this small world.

"Young friend, there is a second deal. Are you interested?"

"True God Zhen Yi is about to devour and fuse with me. I have a secret method that will allow you to absorb True God Zhen Yi here. It will increase your Origin Substance and give me a chance to turn the tables!"

Xu Qing stopped in his tracks and looked up at the sky.

"You were confident that you could let me in. Obviously, you already knew about this karma in your Divine Realm."

"So, did you propose this deal yourself, or … did someone make you propose it?"

"Finally, I want to know whether you … are a God or an Immortal!"

Xu Qing's eyes were calm as he spoke slowly.

......

At the same time, in the ninth star ring, which was extremely far away from the fourth star ring, at the center of the vast starry sky, the Wanggu Continent!

The pressure from the ancient immortals in the starry sky was getting heavier and heavier, and the sense of urgency in the hearts of the myriad races was also getting stronger and stronger.

Under the Wanggu Continent, in the boundless catacombs where the Brilliant Heaven God Race was sealed by the ancient immortals.

In a remote place, there was a dilapidated temple.

There was no statue in the temple, but in the corner, there was a head lying, facing upwards and cursing loudly.

"Didn't I just steal the corpse of a peak stage God Altar Tier god? You've chased me for so long, just you wait!"

The head gritted its teeth, and in the next instant, a very wild and skinny little rat with almost bald hair crawled out of the ruins beside it and came to the side of the head, letting out a lazy squeak.

The head moved and rolled, adjusting its angle so that its gaze could fall on the little rat, and its expression gradually became surprised.

"What the hell?"

"You felt the distant teleportation?
