1023 Special Character

Xu Qing had experienced touching the divinity before and had some understanding of this.

At that moment, the lightning dissipated and the darkness drowned again, covering the vortices formed by the heir and the others. As screams rang out from afar, it was obvious that the heir and his siblings were gradually moving further away.

Wherever they passed, everything was cleaned out.

The captain sighed, looking at the pieces of skin in his hand, feeling aches all over his body. A mix of emotions welled up within him, and he then turned to look at Xu Qing.

“Little Qing, do you think they did this with malice…”

“I asked them, but they said they couldn’t come. So, I used my own fat to make candles and my own skin to make talismans. Do you know… how painful that is?”

Xu Qing nodded and comforted.

“Captain, put them away. I don’t think we’ll need them for the rest of the journey. Also, let’s not waste it. Saving what we can might come in handy later. Maybe you can put them back on your body.”

The captain frowned and let out a long sigh. He put away all the skin talismans and walked forward.

The canyon was still pitch-black and the surroundings were still cold. However, there was no danger.

Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu sighed with emotion. Li Youfei also sighed. Nether Fairy didn’t care about this and was even very excited. If Chen Erniu wasn’t happy, she would be happy.

Since she was happy, she continued to hit the lantern.

Just like that, another two hours passed and everyone arrived at the end of the canyon without any obstructions.

The moment they walked out of the reversed sky, a broken altar was reflected in their eyes.

This altar must have been extremely vast when it was intact.

This was because its shattered pieces were all boulders and there were a few statues standing in the surroundings.

These statues were 100,000 feet tall. Although they were broken and looked ancient, their auras were still astonishing.

Xu Qing and the others felt like they had entered a country of giants.

Here, it was filled with extremely dense resentment and baleful aura that dyed the surroundings, causing everything in sight to distort to varying degrees.

It affected the sky, causing the sky here to be different from what Xu Qing had seen on the way. The sky here was even higher, like the sky beyond the sky.

Between the pervading resentment and baleful aura, a massive vortex formed, constantly roaring and never ceasing in its relentless rotation.

Within this vortex, wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, as well as the sun, moon, and stars, harbored endless laws, constantly changing and erupting, creating terrifying fluctuations.

It was soul-shaking.

Xu Qing looked at the majestic vortex in the distance and his heart churned.

He could sense the fluctuations of the god within, mixed with the aura of the Crimson Goddess. There was also a vast might that was extremely domineering. It was as though the world had to kneel down in front of it.

Vaguely, there was also a furious roar that seemed to have come from ancient times. Coupled with the heart-rending and sharp sound, it caused Xu Qing’s entire body to shine with blood light. His divine repository undulated and the morning glow spread out. The Poison Restriction fluctuated and instinctively resisted.

However, even so, he still spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered back.

“Even the heir might not be able to easily enter this vortex…”

Xu Qing’s expression was solemn as he muttered inwardly. If he was already so shocked, there was no need to mention the others.

At that moment, the expressions of Ning Yan, Wu Jianwu, and Li Youfei changed drastically. All of them spat out blood and their souls were being torn.

At this moment, Ning Yan’s bloodline was also stimulated. His entire body emitted a yellow light but he still couldn’t resist and fainted.

As for Li Youfei, his body trembled. Even though he was a Nascent Soul cultivator, under this vortex, Nascent Soul cultivators weren’t much better than Golden Cores. As blood spurted out, he was heavily injured and fainted.

As for Wu Jianwu, his cultivation was the weakest but he had many descendants. At this critical moment, he waved his hand and summoned a large number of his descendants. They surrounded his body and released the power of their bloodline to augment him. Although he also coughed blood, he didn’t faint.

Nether Fairy’s expression was also solemn. She looked at the vortex in the sky and five secret repositories rose around her. Only then was she fine.

The captain also spat out a mouthful of blood and took a few steps back. However, his eyes revealed intense excitement. His breathing was hurried as he pointed at the broken altar under the vortex and laughed wildly.

“Little Qing, do you see it? This is our destination!”

“This is the place where the ruler of the Moon Worship Region killed the Crimson Goddess before she became a god back then!”

“Before the Crimson Goddess became a god, she was also at the ruler realm!”

“According to the information I gathered in my previous life, there should have been a God Slaying Platform here formed by the gathering of the ruler’s divine powers, capable of turning the intangible into tangible!”

“It was that God Slaying Platform that beheaded the Crimson Goddess, but afterward, it was utterly loathed by the Crimson Goddess and collapsed, body and spirit annihilated. But it’s okay!”

The captain’s eyes gleamed with an increasingly intense madness, his voice becoming more impassioned.

“This won’t affect the major thing we’re going to do. And now that we’re here, there are some things that I can finally say completely. There’s no need to worry about karmic consequences, as revealing them outside would alert the dormant Crimson Goddess.”

Xu Qing’s eyes gleamed as he looked at the captain.

“Little Qing, do you know why my script is called God Slaying?”

“Because you are going to recreate the scene of the ruler killing the Crimson Goddess here!”

Xu Qing calmly spoke. He had long guessed the answer. However, the captain didn’t say it clearly, so he didn’t probe further.

The captain laughed.

“That’s right. I’ll try my best to restore it as realistically as possible. I’ll record it and do some post-processing to make it perfect.”

“After that, I’ll use all the artificial suns that I have and broadcast this scene to the whole Moon Worship Region!”

“One of those artificial suns is in the desert and there are two more that I released before I entered this place. They are now hanging in the sky above the Moon Worship Region. I have also secretly made arrangements on the other few.”

“I’ll be able to broadcast it after the recording is completed!”

“At that time, all living beings in the Moon Worship Region will be able to see everything in the sky no matter where they are!”

The captain’s voice spread in all directions. Coupled with the rumbling of the vortex in the sky, it formed an extraordinary aura.

“Currently, all living beings in the Moon Worship Region are enveloped by despair. They need hope, they need a source of eruption. The content we’re recording is their hope and the source of their eruption.”

When Xu Qing heard this, he completely understood and spoke.

“Because this scene will let them know that even gods can die, nor is it necessary for them to be eternal.”

“That’s right!” The captain’s expression was fanatical. Clearly, he had been thinking about this scene for a long time and had prepared a lot for it. Now that it was about to happen, he was truly excited.

“Eldest Senior Brother, you should have more than one goal for doing this, right?” Xu Qing fell into deep thought and looked at the captain.

“Junior Brother, you understand me best. Haha, I have three motives for doing this!”

“Firstly, I want to stimulate the fighting spirit of all living beings in the Moon Worship Region. It will be too difficult to devour the Crimson Goddess with just our strength. Hence, we need to borrow the power of all living beings and create a spark that burns the plains!”

“Secondly, only by accomplishing the first goal can I gather the power of wish from all living beings at the source of the broadcast, which is here. This wish power has significant uses, and you’ll know about it later!”

“As for the third motive, when all living beings remember this scene, a seed will be planted in their hearts! The fact that the Crimson Goddess was once killed is the scene that the Crimson Goddess hates the most!”

“Little Qing, you’ve touched divinity before, so you should be clear about the relationship between human nature and divinity. You should also know why the Crimson Goddess is hungry. It’s because the Crimson Goddess… isn’t perfect.”

The captain licked his lips and gazed at Xu Qing. The madness in his eyes was extremely intense now. In fact, a face had even appeared in his pupils. One could vaguely feel a sense of hunger rising uncontrollably from the captain’s body.

Xu Qing nodded and calmly spoke.

“I’ve sensed it and guessed that the Crimson Goddess might have reached a certain balance. However, at the end of the day, She is indeed imperfect. Otherwise, if Her humanity was completely erased, She wouldn’t have the feeling of hunger anymore.”

The captain smiled. This smile was a little sinister, and even Nether Fairy’s heart trembled.

“Therefore, what we have to do is to break this balance!”

“I will use the sacrificial dance technique to send this recording into Her consciousness when the Crimson Goddess arrives not long later. I will use Her most hated memories to awaken Her humanity!

After all, emotions are also a manifestation of human nature! Using this as a fulcrum to throw both Her human nature and divinity into complete chaos.”

“At that time, the Crimson Goddess will go crazy and Her balance will be broken. She will have a flaw!”

“And this is just one of the many methods I have. When all the steps are completed, the Crimson Goddess… might really be killed again!”

“How is it, Little Qing? Am I, your Eldest Senior Brother, very powerful?!” The captain asked proudly.

Xu Qing was fully convinced. He cupped his fists and bowed.

Seeing this, the captain became even more pleased, bursting into laughter. He took strides toward Ning Yan, raised his hand, and with a resounding smack, both Ning Yan and Li Youfei spewed blood, gradually waking up from unconsciousness.

“Little Ningning, this is your script. I’ll give you fifteen minutes. Remember everything. The character you are going to act as… is the ruler of the Moon Worship Region!”

When Ning Yan heard this, his entire body trembled. As for Wu Jianwu, he was anxious. He hurriedly pushed away the descendants in front of him and gazed at the captain with anticipation.

The captain waved his hand and a jade slip headed straight for Wu Jianwu.

“Little Jianjian, you’re my good brother. How can I not know your dream? I’ll satisfy you today. You’ll play… the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether!”

Wu Jianwu was excited. This was his lifelong pursuit. Even if he couldn’t achieve it in reality, being able to accomplish it in acting held extraordinary significance for him. Especially thinking about the numerous audience members, Wu Jianwu felt a profound exhilaration in his heart.

The captain patted Wu Jianwu’s shoulder and gave him an encouraging look before turning to look at Nether Fairy.

“Big… Sister Nether Fairy, according to our previous agreement, you agreed to play the role of the Crimson Goddess.”

Nether Fairy’s eyes were filled with resentment as she snorted coldly.

“Give it to me!”

The captain hurriedly handed a jade slip to Nether Fairy respectfully. After that, he gazed at Xu Qing and blinked before smiling.

“Little Qing, your role is quite unique. You’re not portraying a person, but blood… using your authority, depicting the blood spurting out when Crimson Mother is beheaded couldn’t be more realistic.”

Xu Qing was expressionless as he gazed at the captain.

The captain coughed.

“However, seeing that you’re my junior brother, I’ll add another character for you. How about… the divine official of the God Slaying Platform?”
