Chapter 1289: Swallowing It All (Second Update!)

The true god, whose body was a ball of flesh and blood that flowed with mucus and poison, saw this scene, and his flesh and blood wriggled faster.

He was about to break through the void and escape.

However, in the next moment, Commander Summer Immortal's body flickered and appeared directly behind the true god. As she raised her left hand, her body shone with silver light, and the might of the Summer Immortal erupted again, blocking the true god's path.

This caused the true god to pause.

"Xu Qing, let's work together. We …"

Before Commander Summer Immortal could finish speaking, Xu Qing had already arrived at this moment with the power of ten thousand immortals. With a wave of his hand, a fingernail appeared in front of him.

The moment this fingernail appeared, a terrifying force erupted from within.

It caused the starry sky to distort and the void to collapse. Although the pressure it emitted was not as strong as the bridge from before, it was still shocking.

It was a Dao artifact!

The moment it appeared, it absorbed all of the space-time shadows behind Xu Qing and gathered them into itself, forming a beam of gold and silver light.

It tore through the void toward the true god.

It was so fast that it instantly closed in and pierced through.

In an instant, the true god's body trembled and collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye. All of the poison dissipated, and even the poisonous plum inside became a part of the void.

It was the same for his soul!

His body and soul were destroyed!

This scene was too fast. Xu Qing's attack was extremely fast, and whether it was his aura or the terror of his fingernail, it was earth-shattering.

As for Commander Summer Immortal, her heart trembled violently. At this moment, she looked at Xu Qing …

Her expression froze.

"How is this a Quasi-Immortal … This is clearly the Summer Immortal.

Even with a Dao artifact in hand, ordinary Summer Immortal would have to be careful when facing this person.

"Especially in his current state, he is only a sliver away from breaking through!

"He has everything, and the immortal embryo has been completely formed. He is about to become an immortal, and only needs to advance!"

Seeing Xu Qing's state, Commander Summer Immortal spoke solemnly.

"True Lord, please wait a moment!"

At the same time, the surrounding gods were all shocked and frantically fled. As for the cultivators, they were incomparably excited after surviving this calamity.

They all bowed to Xu Qing and then chased after the fleeing gods.

Commander Summer Immortal also went with them.

Without a true god, the remaining cultivators here, with the help of Commander Summer Immortal and her subordinates, quickly destroyed the remaining gods.

After completing her mission, Summer Immortal returned to Xu Qing's side and clasped her fists.

"Thank you for your help!"

Summer Immortal said sincerely.

Xu Qing's expression was the same as ever. After returning the salute, he began to chat with the Summer Immortal.

Once he understood the situation on the battlefield, Xu Qing bid farewell and left under the gazes of the cultivator and his subordinates.

Summer Immortal's heart was in turmoil as he watched Xu Qing's figure disappear into space.

"He's a True Lord, blessed by providence, and the younger brother of Immortal Lord Mi Ming … He's extremely honorable in the current fifth star ring!"

"As for himself, his battle prowess is astonishing … The next time we meet, he will have already broken through and become a Summer Immortal."

Thinking of this, Commander Summer Immortal suddenly had a thought.

"He doesn't seem to have a Daoist companion yet …"

......

Xu Qing had no idea what Summer Immortal was thinking. As of this moment, he was floating through the starry sky of the fourth star ring.

The deeper he went, the more he could see the destruction of the fourth star ring.

Fragments of stars and Divine Realms could be seen everywhere.

The traces of war were boundless in the fourth star ring.

The whole place was withered.

There was no starlight or golden light of Divine Realms.

It seemed that most of the fourth star ring had fallen into endless darkness.

Only the supply planets that spread from the fifth star ring became the only light in the fourth star ring. The cultivators had the upper hand in the war, and they were in the final stages of the battle.

"According to the commander, the battle in the fourth star ring is divided into two parts. On one side, the cultivator army is constantly closing in on the last area where the Gods are gathered.

On the other side, the supply stars are used as the starting point to clean up the battlefield and the remaining survivors.

The former is usually made up of combat cultivator legions, while the latter is mostly made up of corpse search teams and garrison squads. "

Xu Qing thought of Zhou Zhengli and the others.

"I can find traces of them on the way through the supply stars.“

Recalling those comrades of his, Xu Qing's lips curled into a smile.

"I wonder how they are now …"

Just like this, time passed.

Xu Qing wandered in the fourth star ring, looking for an opportunity to break through.

During this period, he also encountered some remaining Gods.

However, with his current peak Quasi-Immortal cultivation and combat strength that could fight against Summer Immortal, as long as he didn't encounter a peak True God or God Lord, he would be fine.

In addition, he also contacted Zhou Zhengli through the supply stars. After confirming the area where they were, Xu Qing changed his direction and kept approaching where they were.

At the same time, the corps looting team formed by Zhou Zhengli and the others had just completed a battlefield mission and received a period of leave. They were returning to their supply stars.

During the period when Xu Qing went missing in the trading battle of the Goddess, Zhou Zhengli and the others had also grown.

They participated in the general attack on the fourth star ring and gained some military merits. They followed the tradition of the corps looting team and searched the corpses on the battlefield.

In terms of cultivation, they had improved a lot.

Now, not only were all of them Quasi-Immortals, but even Xing Huanzi had reached the mid-stage of Quasi-Immortal and was not far from the late-stage.

As for Xie Lingzi and Yuanshan Su, they were also break through to the early-stage of Quasi-Immortal.

Qian Jun and Bi Yi was also the same, and their mentality was better than when Xu Qing was around. That kind of carefree feeling made the two brothers very proud.

Only Zhou Zhengli's cultivation did not change much, but he was good at hiding, so it was difficult for others to directly judge.

At this moment, after returning to the supply star, Zhou Zhengli saw that everyone was about to leave and said with a smile.

"Everyone, let me tell you a piece of good news. I have contacted the Young Master, and he is rushing to the supply star where we are."

As soon as these words came out, everyone had different expressions.

Xie Lingzi narrowed his eyes and restrained the arrogance that rose in his heart during this period of time.

Yuanshansu was a little dazed.

Xing Huanzi was expressionless, but there was a flash of light in his eyes.

The one with the biggest reaction was Qian Jun and Bi Yi. These two swordsmen were originally talking to each other through voice transmission and discussing where to go next. At this moment, when they heard Zhou Zhengli's words, their bodies and minds instantly trembled.

Then, they dispersed.

Looking at their leaving figures on the supply star, Zhou Zhengli's smile did not fade, but his heart was filled with excitement.

Compared to the others, he and Li Mengtu, who had yet to return from his cultivation outside, were the ones who wanted Xu Qing to return the most. This was because they had already gained the most from following Young Master back then when Young Master had shaken the fifth ring.

During this period of time, he could clearly feel that the cultivators of the fifth star ring valued them, and the supply star was open to them.

Even Summer Immortal, who was guarding the supply star, was very polite to them.

All this made Zhou Zhengli extremely proud of the choice he had made back then.

As for the thoughts of the others, Zhou Zhengli knew very well and did not care.

He knew that all the other people's thoughts would not bear fruit from the moment Xu Qing helped the Aurora Young Master. With Xu Qing's arrival, all their thoughts would vanish.

Therefore, he looked at the departing figures of everyone and chuckled. He decided to wait here and welcome Xu Qing as soon as possible.

At this moment, everyone's actions were different.

Xie Lingzi immediately went into seclusion, and the remnant sword in his body was trembling.

"That person is back. If you dare to continue what you said to me, I have no objections, but … do you still dare?"

Xie Lingzi said in a low voice, and the remnant sword in his body was exasperated.

Qian Jun and Bi Yi and his brother were no longer in the mood to play. They quickly returned to their cave abodes and immediately began to discuss.

"What should we do … that guy is back!"

"It's over, it's over. We've eaten too well during this period of time, and the sword is extremely sharp. He'll definitely be tempted when he sees it!"

"It's all your fault. I advised you not to eat too much!"

"It's all your fault. You ate first!"

While the two brothers were complaining, Xing Huanzi had already left the supply star. He turned into a long rainbow and returned to the secret cave abode he had opened outside.

It was a star fragment. After he had discovered it, he had chosen to cultivate in it.

After sitting down cross-legged, Xing Huanzi's eyes shone brightly.

"Although the gap between us is getting bigger and bigger … Xu Qing, I won't allow myself to be left behind too much!"

Xing Huanzi muttered. He raised his hand, and a large amount of dust appeared out of thin air and gathered in front of him.

This dust was definitely not ordinary. Each grain carried a terrifying weight.

This was the heavenly law!

Looking at this dust, Xing Huanzi's heart was filled with anticipation.

During this period of time, through his own efforts and the opportunities he had obtained, he had finally refined more of his constitution.

This was his preparation for ascending to the Summer Immortal level.

The path he wanted to take was different from Xu Qing's.

Xu Qing had yet to comprehend his own constitution, while Xing Huanzi already knew that his next constitution was his heavenly law.

"Finally, I'm almost done refining it. After a few more days of refining, I'll be able to completely fuse with the heavenly law dust!

"At that time, all I need to do to ascend to the Summer Immortal level is nourishing the Immortal Embryo with the Origin Substance!“

Thinking of this, Xing Huanzi made up his mind. He formed hand seals with both hands and immersed himself in refining.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened!

Without any warning whatsoever, the air around the Immortal's cave began to twist and distort, transforming into a huge mouth!

This mouth looked like it was formed by greed, like the mouth of a mad dog.

The moment it appeared, it did not hesitate to swallow the heavenly law dust in front of Xing Huanzi!

It was clean, not a single grain was left!

Then, it instantly disappeared!

Only a satisfied burp could be heard echoing in the cave.

All of this happened too suddenly.

Xing Huanzi was stunned, and his mind instantly churned. His eyes suddenly widened in anger, and he let out an earth-shattering roar!

His cultivation base burst forth with monstrous power!

.....

'I'm still writing. There'll be more in a while!'
