Seeing how terrifying Xu Qing was, the shadow trembled. As for the Diamond Sect’s ancestor, he shook even more. After he manifested himself, his eyes widened and his mind was buzzing.

“The longer you live, the more things you will see…”

“This Demon Xu must be a true dragon. That’s what it says in the book. To be able to have such peerless talent, he must be a true dragon. As for that Saintly Star… he might also be the same, but that’s another book.”

“Let’s see who’s the strongest true dragon between these two books.”

“…Afraid, afraid…” The shadow trembled and its emotions were a little chaotic.

It was rare for the Diamond Sect’s ancestor not to mock it and agree with it. He also felt that Demon Xu took him in, the latter had been progressing rapidly and had become extremely terrifying.

“Hmm? Could it be that I have the potential to support the dragon? After becoming my master, they can rise even more?”

Just as the shadow and the Diamond Sect’s ancestor were trembling in horror, they heard Xu Qing muttering.

“I’m still too weak.”

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed into slits, hiding the purple light in them.

“I can’t compare to that Saintly Star who can suppress a peak alone…” Xu Qing shook his head. He felt that he still had many areas to improve.

“I have to hurry up and light the fourth ball of life fire. After that, I’ll see what’s behind the 120 magic apertures.”

These heaven’s chosens of the seven sects were all at 120 magic apertures, but hadn’t advanced to the Golden Core Realm. Xu Qing felt that there must be a problem here. The jade slip he had read in the past didn’t even mention much about 120 magic apertures. However, now, it seemed like such people weren’t rare in the Wanggu Continent. Since they were all geniuses of their sect, Xu Qing felt that there might be a certain reason for them to insist on remaining in Foundation Building Realm.

“My poison can be even stronger. I need a large amount of poisonous grass for the little black bugs to consume and increase their resistance. They can be nurtured in the Poison Restriction Pill all year round.”

“There’s also the Extreme Heaven Saber… I cannot let go of this opportunity just like that. I have to go to more Extreme Heaven Dao Temples and try to comprehend them.”

“I’m still too weak.” Xu Qing sighed and extinguished the pride that had just risen because his combat strength had reached above the five fires.

The Diamond Sect’s ancestor was stunned. He carefully and seriously checked Xu Qing’s expression to see if Xu Qing was being sarcastic. However, after checking, he sensed that Xu Qing really seemed to think so.

‘This is weak? This is f*cking weak? Then what is strong… This Demon Xu probably has a wrong understanding of what weak means.’

‘…Weak?’

The shadow at the side was also stupefied.

Xu Qing drew in a deep breath as determination appeared in his eyes.

“Since I’m not strong enough, I can’t be too exposed.” Xu Qing fell silent and glanced at the shadow on the ground and the black iron stick where the Diamond Sect’s ancestor was.

The two of them were completely dumbfounded.

“Shadow, put another layer of concealment on my life lantern and also hide ten magic apertures for me!” Xu Qing slowly spoke. After that, he looked around and waved his hand. Immediately, all the fiery power in the surroundings was pulled and gathered in his right hand.

It turned into a ball of black flames that contained terrifying power.

Xu Qing clenched his right hand and the flames instantly fused into his body. As for the prison cells, with the dissipation of the flames, even the soil turned into ashes and there were no traces left.

Xu Qing then took out a large number of array formations from his storage bag and set them up again.

As he had enough spirit stones, he wasn’t stingy with the array formations and had bought a lot of them. After he arranged them, he calmly transmitted an order.

“Continue bringing Night Dove cultivators over!”

Very soon, the members of the Homicide Department sent the criminals in again. As they walked closer to the prison, they also noticed the collapse in the surroundings. Although they were shocked, they didn’t dare to ask.

Just like that, three days passed.

The Seven Sects Alliance’s challenges continued as enthusiastically as ever, but in reality, there were many doubts in the minds of the heaven’s chosens from the Seven Sects Alliance.

This was because they discovered that Huang Yikun had gone missing.

Before he disappeared, he said two things. One was that he would handle Xu Qing’s matter and let them see the results. The second thing was that he was going to challenge the Seventh Peak and asked them to wait and see the results.

Now, several days had passed but there was no news about the Seventh Peak, and Huang Yikun had disappeared.

This matter was extremely strange. What was even stranger was that the Mystic Nether Sect actually didn’t have any response to this…

Hence, when the heaven’s chosens of the Seven Sects Alliance looked in the direction of the Seventh Peak and Port 176, their eyes were filled with doubt and wariness.

Some things couldn’t be seen through because their levels were not high enough.

These heaven’s chosens weren’t fools. They naturally understood this principle very well. In addition, the Seventh Peak and Xu Qing had nothing to do with them. Hence, most of them didn’t want to get involved in this.

‘A dragon has nine sons, none of them resemble each other1′. Some were still unable to give up the benefits even after seeing the situation. After all, Xu Qing’s capture of Night Dove made some of the heaven’s chosens of the Seven Sects Alliance extremely unhappy.

Although not all the heaven’s chosens of the Seven Sects Alliance had transactions with Night Dove, Sima Ling wasn’t the only major customer who wanted to buy treasure-nurturers.

However, these people who didn’t want to give up on benefits were also waiting, waiting for the Bizarre Hunting Sect.

The Bizarre Hunting Sect wasn’t the strongest in the Seven Sects Alliance but in terms of the degree of fear others felt toward them, they weren’t much inferior to the Seven Sects Alliance.

This sect had always been known for covering their mistakes and their bizarre entities. It was also because of this that not many people were willing to provoke them. In the eyes of the other sects, the people from the Bizarre Hunting Sect who interacted with bizarre entities all year round were all lunatics.

Even the lunatics of the Litu Sect did all kinds of crazy things for an ideal. However, the Bizarre Hunting Sect was different. Many times, the Seven Sects Alliance couldn’t understand their actions. In fact, even the disciples of the Bizarre Hunting Sect couldn’t see through each other’s thoughts.

Hence, the Bizarre Hunting Sect wouldn’t let the matter of Sima Ling being suppressed rest.

Five days later, a lone boat floated over from the Forbidden Sea outside the Seven Blood Eyes’ port.

This was a boat made of bones. The boat wasn’t big, only about 100 feet long. Its entire body was slender and looked like the arm bone of a giant beast.

On both sides of the bone boat, even in broad daylight, one could see countless translucent ghost hands stretching out and continuously stirring up the sea.

There were probably thousands of ghost hands. As they continued to stir up the sea, this bone boat slowly approached the Seven Blood Eyes’ port.

Unlike the arrival of the Seven Sects Alliance back then, this boat’s owner was very polite. The boat stopped outside the port’s array formation and a woman in a long white dress with black hair walked out.

This woman didn’t look old and her appearance was extremely beautiful. However, her face was deathly pale, as though she hadn’t seen the sunlight for countless years.

She held an umbrella above her head. Upon closer inspection, one could see that there were countless strange faces on this umbrella. They were crying and laughing, occasionally biting each other.

It looked terrifying but every time the white-clothed woman gently rotated the handle of the umbrella, all the faces on it would tremble in fear.

“Bizarre Hunting Sect, Sima Ru, pays a visit to the Seven Blood Eyes.” Outside the array formation, the white-clothed woman spoke softly. Her voice was cold like the winter wind.

Very soon, the array formation opened a gap. The bone boat moved in and chose Port 176 to dock.

The moment she reached the shore, the white-clothed woman silently floated ashore and slowly headed toward… Port 176’s Homicide Department.

Her hair was so long that it reached the ground. The ground would squirm wherever it passed, and as though it had come to life, black ball-like ghosts squirmed out of the ground. They bounced around and followed the white-clothed woman while chanting strange nursery rhymes.

“Beat it lightly with one bone and pry out its two eyeballs.”

“You’ll be able to open the shell in three hits. Four tongues, come and catch them.”

“The five friends are strong and dug in with their six little hands”

This nursery rhyme was like countless children singing, but regardless of whether it was the sound or the sentences, they were filled with evil. This caused everyone who passed by the white-clothed woman to be horrified and get away from her immediately.

Just like that, the woman in white got closer and closer to the Homicide Department.

As for her arrival, it was immediately known by the heaven’s chosens of the Seven Sects Alliance. All of them sensed her from afar and took a deep breath.

“Sima Ru from the Bizarre Hunting Sect, Sima Ling’s biological sister. She’s also a heaven’s chosen Dao Child of the previous generation. I heard that after she advanced to the Golden Core realm, she has been in closed-door cultivation and is trying to break through to the Second Heavenly Palace!”

“She actually came!”

“It’s not her main body but a bizarre body of hers!”

“I’ve heard of this clone before. When Sima Ru was at the Foundation Building realm, she refined it with one of her bones and fused it with the bizarre entities. Although it can’t reach the combat strength of a Golden Core cultivator, it’s said that it can display the power to suppress four life fires!”

“It shouldn’t be able to reach five fires, and should have four and a half life fire strength. However, this additional strength of half a life fire is enough to suppress four fires!”

These heaven’s chosens of the Seven Sects Alliance quickly transmitted their voices to each other. Their hearts were trembling but they didn’t dare to get too close. This was because the Bizarre Hunting Sect was filled with lunatics. They were worried that after she suppressed Xu Qing, she would get excited and suppress them as well.

At that moment, on the streets of Port 176, the white-clothed woman whom these heaven’s chosen were extremely afraid of was followed by more and more black ball-like ghosts that were jumping around like beans. Amidst their increasingly sinister songs, they walked to the entrance of the Homicide Department.

Above her in the sky, a huge amount of black fog appeared. It transformed into a malevolent ghost face and looked down at the Homicide Department.

There was no one at the gate of the Homicide Department.

The gate was wide open and one could see an extraordinarily handsome youth sitting at the main seat of the guest pavilion. He was looking at her expressionlessly from across the courtyard.

The white-clothed woman’s expression was as calm as ever as she stared at the youth. A faint smile appeared on her pale face. She looked very decent, and also exuded elegance, like a young lady from a wealthy family.

“I’m here to pick up my brother.”
