Chapter 1088 Xu Qing's Destination

The fall of the Sword-wielding Emperor, the Master's retreat, the Empress's practice, and Erniu's departure, all of these are like a huge sundial needle, slowly turning.

After half a decade, there will be a change in the sky.

The ancient immortals outside Wanggu have become a sharp blade, hanging over the heads of all living beings, turning into a life-and-death crisis.

And it can be imagined that as time goes by, this sense of crisis will become more and more intense.

After all, half a decade is not particularly long for mortals, and even more so for cultivators.

Maybe half a decade has passed in a retreat.

Therefore, the crisis is so great that it has become oppression, weighing heavily on the world.

Every ethnic group is making final preparations.

But it seems that the only way before them is to pray for the protection of the gods.

So, some places have become more peaceful than before, but some places have become more chaotic than before.

The chaos of all living beings continues to unfold.

And the gods are indifferent, high above, watching all this.

For them, this will be a somewhat interesting drama in their long lives.

As for the suffering of all living beings...

Living in the ancient continent under this remnant is suffering, but the suffering used to be more worldly, but now it faces everything.

"This is also a kind of fairness."

In the desert in the Jiyue Realm, in the small medicine shop where Xu Qing used to work, the ghost spirit was boiling water.

And the prince sat there, drinking tea and speaking softly.

The third grandmother sat aside, shook her head slightly, and her eyes fell on Xu Qing who was pouring tea for the prince.

"Have you thought it through?"

Xu Qing put down the teapot, sat opposite the two of them, and nodded.

After leaving the human race's imperial capital, the first place he came to was the Jiyue Realm.

He wanted to see Ling'er and the prince's grandfather and others before leaving.

But Ling'er's retreat was not over yet, and the ninth grandfather was guarding her. After Xu Qing investigated, he did not disturb her, but said goodbye to the prince's grandfather here.

"Young man, it's good to go out and experience it."

"But there's some chaos in the outer sea. Although it's okay to be careful with your current cultivation and combat power, remember... don't go too deep."

The prince put down the teacup and his eyes fell on Xu Qing. After thinking for a while, he suddenly raised his right hand. The next moment, the Dao Mark was activated, and a mark formed in front of him out of thin air.

"This is the power of my change of cognition. It can be used three times. Take it for self-defense."

Xu Qing did not tell the prince his real destination. Looking at the mark at this moment, he knew that this was what the prince was concerned about, so he took it silently.

The third grandmother looked at Xu Qing with deep eyes. After a while, she sighed lightly, waved her hand, and a long river appeared, fell into a jade bottle, and gave it to Xu Qing.

"This is a ray of time river water that I refined."

Xu Qing took it, stood up and bowed deeply to the prince and the third grandmother.

"The younger generation is leaving, Grandpa, Grandma, you... take care."

Xu Qing spoke softly, then turned and walked out, leaving the medicine shop, leaving the mountains, and disappearing in the desert.

Looking at his departing figure, Grandma spoke softly.

"The final destination of this child is not the outer sea."

The prince was silent and sighed for a long time.

"We knew about the legend of the outer sea back then, and the place he is going to is related to this legend."

"As for thirty years later..."

"Father is on his way back. According to the time, it should not be much different."

"I hope that when he comes back, he will still be our father, so it is good for this child to leave now."

The prince murmured.

Grandma raised her head, looked into the sky, and remained silent.

...

At this moment, in the Jiyue Domain, Xu Qing walked forward silently.

Before leaving, he will go to Fenghai County to see Zixuan.

Afterwards, he will put away all the shackles and embark on the path he has chosen.

"Thirty years later..."

Xu Qing murmured, his figure roaring in the sky, and the next moment the entire sky suddenly rippled, and it became a huge mirror visible to the naked eye.

In the mirror, a huge mountain filled with temples appeared.

On the top of the mountain, an old woman walked down.

Beside the old woman, there was a tall old man with a white beard.

After seeing the two, Xu Qing paused and bowed respectfully.

"Fifth Grandma, Eighth Grandpa."

Fifth Grandma looked at Xu Qing with a kind expression, nodded, and did not speak, but raised her hand and shaped a petal with the power of her authority.

After the petal was formed, the Fifth Grandma's body clearly showed the breath of aging.

"Take it, as long as you have a breath, consume this petal, you can recover instantly."

Xu Qing knew that this was the special power of Fifth Grandma, and every time it was used, it would consume her vitality.

So he hesitated.

"Here you go, take it!"

The Eighth Grandfather on the side glared, raised his hand and waved, and also turned his anger power into a Dao mark, forming a brand, and sent it out together.

"This brand can make your combat power soar, but the price is a period of weakness after the battle."

This is a gift from the elders. Xu Qing's heart is warm. He took it silently and was about to speak, but the next moment a sword light came from the earth and approached in an instant.

The sky and the earth changed color, the wind and the clouds surged, and the sword light also turned into a mark in front of Xu Qing.

The voice of the Ninth Grandfather echoed in the sky and the earth.

"This is my sword intent. If it bursts out with all my strength, it can kill the master!"

Xu Qing was moved. After a while, he took the seal, took a deep breath, and bowed deeply to the Fifth Grandma and the Eighth Grandpa, as well as the direction of the sword intent coming from the earth.

Finally, under the gaze of these three elders, he left the Moon Festival Realm.

...

One day later.

Above Fenghai County, a pagoda shining with starlight appeared in the clouds, and Xu Qing stepped out from it.

The next moment, he appeared in the cave below Fenghai County.

In this former ancient imperial palace, outside the Phoenix Hall where Zixuan was in retreat, Xu Qing stood there, looking at the palace in front of him.

It was empty all around, no sound came, and there was no trace of people.

This place, under Xu Qing's order, had been completely closed.

And the formation was always blessed, so that Zixuan's retreat would not be disturbed.

Only the figure of the ancestor of the Vajra Sect, after sensing Xu Qing's appearance, instantly appeared outside the hall and greeted Xu Qing excitedly.

"Hello, Master. I miss you so much. But rest assured, Xiaoyouzi has been working diligently to protect this place. There have been no accidents during this period."

"Even a speck of dust will not fall under my protection!"

The ancestor of the Vajra Sect spoke loudly.

He wanted to show that he was useful. Besides, although he was bored here, he was extremely satisfied.

Because the outside world was too dangerous, it was even more dangerous to follow Xu Qing. He had to be careful not to be used as cannon fodder at all times...

Especially now that he was sharper than before, which meant that once he went out, he would be used at least nine times out of ten battles...

This was extremely dangerous for the ancestor of the Vajra Sect.

And according to the stories he had read before, protecting the protagonist's woman was a great achievement as long as he did not make any mistakes.

So at this moment, he tried his best to show that he was very useful here.

Xu Qing nodded, his eyes fell on the Phoenix Hall.

Zi Xuan's perception this time took longer than Xu Qing expected.

After a while, Xu Qing retracted his gaze, looked around, and pondered for a while. As the Vajra Sect Patriarch carefully looked at him, he suddenly raised his hand and waved.

Suddenly, a divine spirit burst out in front of him.

It was not affected and was controlled within ten feet, making the ten-foot range blurry and distorted.

A figure could be vaguely seen, forming inside, and then sitting cross-legged and sinking deeper into the ground.

Seeing all this, the Vajra Sect Patriarch, who had never known about the outside world, opened his eyes wide.

He seemed to have seen another Xu Qing just now...

And that Xu Qing gave him a feeling of indifference, but also a very terrifying feeling.

"Master, that is..."

The Vajra Sect Patriarch shuddered.

"That is my divine clone."

Xu Qing spoke calmly.

Ling'er has the presence of the prince and others, and her safety can be guaranteed in the next thirty years. Xu Qing does not need to worry too much.

But he is worried about Zixuan here.

Therefore, he chose to leave his divine clone here, on the one hand to comprehend the divine power, and on the other hand to protect Zixuan.

This time, he did not intend to take the divine clone with him.

Because the place he was going to, there... might not welcome the gods.

It was just that because the divine clone stayed in Wanggu, Xu Qing's immortal body could not use the divine power.

Such as the power of sound, the carving knife transformed by the power of destiny, and the poison ban, can only be used by the divine clone.

"But with my current extreme immortal cultivation, my combat power has not decreased."

Xu Qing pondered and felt his chest.

The purple crystal is there.

After taking back the divine clone, he has transferred the purple crystal and integrated it into the immortal body.

After doing all this, Xu Qing took a last look at the Phoenix Hall, then took a deep breath, and walked out with the loud farewell of the ancestor of the Vajra Sect, and disappeared into the cave.

When he appeared, he was already outside the Starlight Tower in the sky. The divine vine was shaking, and the golden rat showed its head. Xu Qing stood there and looked at Fenghai County...

After a few breaths, he stepped into the Starlight Tower with a determined look in his eyes.

The tower roared and disappeared in an instant.

It turned into a long rainbow, crossed the sky, and headed straight for... the outer sea!

"Back then, the old man of the human race who appeared in the outer sea said that the outer sea was also called the original sea."

"And the original sea is strange. Wherever it exists, it is a strategic place and a prosperous place, because the original sea can connect all the star rings in the universe."

"So the outer sea is actually the road to other star rings. And this original sea in the ninth star ring where Wang Gu is located is extremely special. Now it is closed, and only the gap can be entered and exited."

"And it is said that it requires the cultivation of Xia Xian to pass through."

Xu Qing sat cross-legged in the high tower. When the tower roared all the way to the outer sea, he raised his hand and took out a white scale.

This scale is like a token.

That was a pass to the original sea reserved by Xiaxian Palace that he had exchanged for giving up his quota when he left Xiaxian Palace.

With this pass, he could pass other star rings without having to reach Xiaxian.

But the danger would be greater.

And this pass was precious, and Xiaxian Palace only had three.

Staring at the pass, Xu Qing raised his head after a moment, and the last words of the old man that year emerged in his mind.

"There, it is a world dominated by humans, and it is also a world of immortals."

"There, it is the fifth star ring, its name... Xiandu."

Xu Qing took a deep breath, put away the token, closed his eyes and meditated.

Just like that, time passed.

Two hours later, with the roar of the Starlight Tower over the Forbidden Sea, the border between the outer sea and the inner sea... was getting closer and closer.

And at this moment, outside the high-speed Starlight Tower, a charming laugh suddenly came.

"Little guy, Yuan Yang is back again."
