Chapter 1454 - 1454 He Should Be a True God
1454 He Should Be a True God
Primordial Sea.
As Suix dissipated, an inexplicable sense of danger quietly approached on the calm water.
It stirred the darkness and distorted one’s vision, forming an oppression that transmitted to one’s mind.
Vaguely, there were waves of maddening murmurs coming from the sea.
It was as though death was approaching.
This was the Primordial Sea, a sea where danger was omnipresent.
Xu Qing and Erniu’s expressions immediately turned solemn.
However, they had been in this sea for more than a month. Through their various experiences, they had a deep impression of this dangerous sea.
At that moment, one of them controlled the magic warship to speed forward, while the other spread out his perception and paid close attention to their surroundings. Erniu also used a concealment technique, turning the ship into a part of pitch-black nothingness.
Although the great wing had already collapsed under the devouring of Suix and the two of them could only use the substitute magic warship to sail on the sea now, with the enhancement of the divine source in Xu Qing’s body, this magic warship seemed to have put on the cape of a god and its speed was astonishing.
After more than ten minutes, it was unknown if it was their luck, the aura when Suix dissipated, or the effect of Erniu’s concealment technique.
The death that was approaching didn’t reach them.
Hence, the two of them sped nervously and gradually left this sea area.
After another two hours, the sense of danger slowly weakened and finally disappeared.
Only then did Xu Qing and Erniu let out a long breath.
The two of them looked at each other and saw each other’s tightly furrowed brows.
“We are lost…” Xu Qing said in a low voice.
Previously, they had been paying attention to their location on the journey to prevent themselves from losing their way in the vast outer sea.
However, the devouring of Suix had interrupted their perception. They didn’t know where they were now.
All they could see was endless darkness.
“I wonder how Old Geezer Jade is doing. Although that guy wasn’t devoured by Suix, I have a feeling He’s not doing so well out here in the outer sea.”
Erniu sighed.
“I miscalculated. If I had known this would happen, we could have thought of a reason to not come here.”
Xu Qing fell silent for a while before suddenly speaking.
“I have a way to know our direction. However, the activation process might attract the attention of unknown existences.”
After Xu Qing finished speaking, he looked at Erniu.
When Erniu heard this, he thought about it and spoke.
“Little Qing, how long will it take for you to cast the spell?”
“Fifteen minutes will do.”
Xu Qing calculated and gave an accurate time.
“That’s not a problem. Wait for me to prepare. However, do you have a smaller boat?”
Erniu looked at the ship they were on and hesitated for a moment.
Xu Qing immediately took out an even smaller magic boat and replaced the magic warship. Erniu then gritted his teeth fiercely and punched his chest, forcing himself to cough up blood as he walked around the magic boat.
Xu Qing wasn’t surprised by Erniu’s actions. After so many years, he was very clear that Eldest Senior Brother’s blood seemed to be omnipotent many times.
As expected, not long later, when the inside and outside of the magic boat were covered in Erniu’s blood, Erniu sat there with a slightly pale expression and waved his hand at Xu Qing.
“I used my blood to simulate the concealment of the Wordless Stone Scripture. We should be fine for fifteen minutes!”
Xu Qing immediately closed his eyes and spread out his divine sense. The divine authority of sound in his body suddenly fluctuated. At the next instant… sounds appeared in the quiet outer sea.
It was the sound of waves in the sea, the sound of darkness flowing, the sound of ruins drifting on the sea, and the murmurs of the unknown under the sea.
Countless sounds erupted at this moment.
As time passed, these sounds continued to transmit and cover the area. During this time, terrifying wills also transmitted terrifying divine thoughts.
There was laughter, cries, polite inquiries, and angry roars.
The varied sounds caused Xu Qing’s body to tremble. He could only do his best to block them and spread his divine authority into the waves of the sea to find the location and the way back.
During this process, the oppressive feeling in the surroundings grew increasingly intense. Erniu was incomparably nervous. He got up and spat out blood many times, strengthening the concealment.
Fifteen minutes finally passed.
Xu Qing’s eyes suddenly opened. After he spat out a mouthful of blood, a dark glint appeared in his eyes. He then pointed in a direction.
“That’s where the inner sea is!”
Erniu immediately augmented the magic boat with Xu Qing, causing the speed of the magic boat to increase explosively as it headed straight for the direction Xu Qing had sensed.
Time slowly passed and half a month passed.
It had been a full month since they were devoured by Suix.
At that moment, forty million kilometers east of the place where Suix had devoured them, the instant the magic boat Xu Qing and the other two were on moved past, the seawater suddenly rumbled.
Amidst the resounding noise, a fountain-like torrent burst forth from the sea floor, like water soaring to the sky. It enveloped the surroundings, carrying Xu Qing and Erniu’s boat upward within the flow.
The two of them were shocked. The moment their thoughts were stirred by this sudden change, a voice that was like heavenly wind echoed in their ears.
“Did the two of you have a good time on the way?”
As the voice rang out, red fog appeared out of thin air and instantly enveloped Xu Qing and Erniu. After that, it sped into the distance and quickly disappeared without a trace.
On the boat that was filled with red fog, a figure appeared in front of Xu Qing and Erniu.
The figure stood tall and straight like a pine tree, clad in a red robe, with an extraordinary aura.
He was none other than… Jade Flowing Dust, who had completely concealed His anxiety and depression.
The instant he saw Jade Flowing Dust, Xu Qing’s heart relaxed a little. He cupped his fists and bowed.
“Greetings, Senior.”
Erniu’s face was also filled with excitement.
“Senior, you’re finally here.”
Jade Flowing Dust turned around. His handsome face was the same as when He had just went into the outer sea, his expression a faint smile, exuding an air of having everything under control.
“Did you have a good time in my story?”
Xu Qing blinked. He didn’t think that Jade Flowing Dust’s story could describe that mysterious human old man. Hence, the latter’s words were definitely a little exaggerated.
However, since He could find them, there must be a story about them.
Hence, he pretended to be in a daze and revealed disbelief.
Erniu and Xu Qing were so in tune with each other that they didn’t need to communicate. At this moment, Erniu chose to mirror Xu Qing, his face showing a dazed expression, followed by awe and shock.
“So, the things we encountered on our way here were all the result of your story, Senior.”
“Senior can command the gods with a single sentence and countless bizarre entities are immersed in the story without knowing it. Such divine might… Senior is indeed a peerless god who can make all gods worship Him, make the world lose its brilliance, and make the starry sky shine!”
After Erniu flattered Him, he hurriedly asked another question.
“Um… Are we going to continue fishing?”
Upon hearing the words ‘continue fishing’, Jade Flowing Dust’s heart couldn’t help but stir. However, His expression was normal, as though he had forgotten His experience of handing tea on the way. He only swept His gaze indifferently.
“There’s no need. It’s already here. Your mission is considered completed.”
After saying that, Jade Flowing Dust turned His head and looked at the ocean behind Him. With a step, He stepped onto the sky. In the sky, He flicked His sleeve and Xu Qing and Erniu’s boat were instantly enhanced by divine power, speeding into the distance.
His voice carried some kind of karma as it echoed out.
“There was a god in Brilliant Heaven who died in the hands of a Summer Immortal. Its true body collapsed and Its divine consciousness dimmed, Its true name returning to the starry sky.”
“And then for ten thousand years, Its name would reappear intermittently. After another ten thousand years, Its divine consciousness sensed the calling. After yet another ten thousand years, Its true body showed signs of revival… This became a cycle.”
“After many cycles, Its true name finally flickered and and started returning from nothingness.”
“Its journey was arduous, encountering unknown entities, devouring a few, then meeting other unknowns and being devoured in turn. Facing danger repeatedly, continuously encountering and collapsing, until Its divine source dispersed!”
“Dispersed to the limit and be extremely weakened. It’s no longer a True God and is at the edge of the Divine Platform!”
As Jade Flowing Dust spoke, the power of divine authority spread out and fused into the sky, imprinting the sea, forming true speech, which He articulated with His true name.
“At this point, the fire of rebirth finally rose in the Primordial Sea. It originally wanted to rest and recuperate for 100,000 years… However, there was a calamity in Its fate. The bringer of this calamity was Jade Flowing Dust!”
“Jade Flowing Dust used the Summer Immortal’s karma, using two humans as bait, and spent two months in the Primordial Sea to lure this returning True God. Here… it manifests!”
“The manifested god’s divine might is extremely weak and Its divine power is extremely low. Its true name is blurry and Its memory is unclear.”
As soon as He finished speaking, the world rumbled. The surrounding seawater stirred up monstrous waves, and countless deep roars echoed in all directions.
Only Jade Flowing Dust stood in the sky. His voice was like thunder, getting louder and louder.
“Hence, under the gaze of Jade Flowing Dust, this god collapsed on Its own, ceasing to exist!”
At the next instant, the color of the world changed and rumbling sounds echoed. The true speech showed signs of shattering.
Jade Flowing Dust frowned and continued to revise the story.
“However, this god’s might still lingered. Under Its struggle, It broke through Jade Flowing Dust’s gaze. However, Jade Flowing Dust was already prepared. He displayed His extreme might and devoured this returning god!”
The true speech rumbled and the imprint cracked again. Clearly, it still wasn’t feasible.
“Although the devouring failed, the true name of the returning god has become even more obscure, with only few hints of it remaining. It escaped, but all of this is within Jade Flowing Dust’s plan. He has been waiting for this moment, and He gave chase!”
This time, although the imprint still shook, it didn’t shatter.
Seeing this, Jade Flowing Dust continued.
“Chase… for 137 days, Jade Flowing Dust eventually absorbed the true name of this returning god and replaced It!”
“Because Jade Flowing Dust told this story and completed this story, He should be a True God!”
The imprint once again showed signs of collapse.
A strange glint appeared in Jade Flowing Dust’s eyes as His entire body emitted a monstrous blood light that improved the imprint.
“Because Jade Flowing Dust told this story and completed it, He should be at the peak of the Divine Platform and has a chance of advancing to the True God Realm!”
The moment He finished speaking, thunder rumbled and the ocean churned. The imprint became increasingly resplendent, as though it had become the truth.
At the next instant, as Xu Qing and Erniu’s hearts churned in the distance, the seawater in the area behind them erupted into the sky. Countless murmurs rose into the sky.
It formed an extreme oppression that suppressed the world.
That murmur echoed like an ancient ballad.
That suppressed time gathered.
In the sky, Jade Flowing Dust’s eyes disclosed a strange glint. The main character in the story He had planned for tens of thousands of years and carefully selected for Himself had finally… appeared!
