Chapter 1577: Adhesive Rain Seals the World

At the same time, at the place where the battle had happened earlier.

This place was in ruins.

The desolate mountain had collapsed and everything was destroyed, leaving behind dense spell fluctuations.

Xu Qing stood in the air with a cold expression. He looked into the distance and his eyes flickered.

“Wind and fire are this person’s authority…”

“This is the first time I’ve encountered someone with two authorities in the Fifth Star Ring. He should be a heaven’s chosen!”

“Especially since this person is adept at concealment and possesses a sharp mind—he’s a formidable opponent!”

Xu Qing recalled how the other party had stuck to the wall of the storage space, almost becoming one with the void. This was extremely novel to Xu Qing.

“I wonder how he did it.”

“It might be with the help of some treasure that contains spatial abilities…”

Xu Qing fell silent.

“If it wasn’t for the fact that the qualifying tokens can sense each other, it would probably be very difficult for me to see through this person’s methods immediately.”

Xu Qing was vigilant.

He felt that his caution was still a little flawed.

“In the future, when I kill them and take their storage items, I have to pay more attention.”

Xu Qing quickly reviewed the situation. After that, he kept the incense and the treasure tree.

The incense was extinguished with the death of the other party’s clone. The remaining portion could still be used.

As for the treasure tree, it had been damaged by the self-destruction earlier, and Xu Qing didn’t have a way to repair it.

“However, it can still barely self-destruct once more.”

After Xu Qing kept these two items and the beast skin of the Four-Nine Formation Restriction, he was about to leave this place.

He didn’t think that the other party would come again after escaping.

After all, the opponent was smart. In the early stages of the second stage of the hunt, it was highly likely that upon realizing the enemy wasn’t weak, no one would recklessly attack at the risk of paying a heavy price.

At this moment, preserving strength and avoiding injury was the optimal strategy.

Unless neither side had the chance to escape and there was a deep-seated enmity between them, it wouldn’t be wise to engage recklessly.

Otherwise, Xu Qing felt that if he were in the same situation, he wouldn’t continue either.

However, the instant Xu Qing was about to leave, he suddenly stopped in his tracks and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

“Again?”

Within the perception range of his token, the star mark that was hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, contrary to his expectations, did not leave.

Instead, it was rapidly approaching him.

Xu Qing frowned slightly. This phenomenon made him feel that something was amiss.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes and killing intent rose in his heart.

“Since you are coming again, let’s… continue this battle.”

Xu Qing didn’t move forward toward the enemy. Instead, he sped backward.

All the arrangements in the wasteland under his feet had already been used. Now, it wasn’t the best battlefield. Hence, as he flew away, Xu Qing quickly locked onto a mountain filled with greenery.

This mountain soared beyond the clouds and had abundant vegetation.

Xu Qing stood at the top of the mountain and waited silently.

The opponent’s arrival was somewhat suspicious, so Xu Qing wouldn’t rush in blindly.

He had to be wary of this being a trap.

To avoid entering the opponent’s trap, Xu Qing decided to find a location where the opponent hadn’t been since their appearance.

This mountain had a wide field of vision. At the same time, there was fog lingering below, making it suitable for a battlefield.

Xu Qing didn’t waste time. With a raise of his hand, his five elements authorities spread out.

Fire spread across the sky like a canopy, water concealed itself within the misty clouds, earth infused the mountain peak, metal flowed within his body, and wood nourished all the vegetation around him.

This time, Xu Qing didn’t have to wait long. It was evident that the young man with the birthmark on his face, having experienced Xu Qing’s tactics, wasted no time and used teleportation to travel all the way.

He traveled rapidly, crossing close to a 500,000 kilometers range with astonishing speed. Since Xu Qing hadn’t distanced himself further, the youth soon appeared on the horizon, within Xu Qing’s line of sight.

In the sky, under the red aurora, the sound of howling wind and lightning rang out.

After that, what entered Xu Qing’s vision was five-colored light other than the aurora’s scarlet!

Black, green, yellow, blue, purple!

These five colors emanated from five massive banners, each thousands of feet long.

They stretched across the sky. Wherever they passed, it seemed as though they absorbed the colors of the world, dividing the landscape into segments dominated by these five hues.

The five colors consumed everything in sight.

From within them, a vast and overwhelming power surged forth, specifically targeting the five elements in all directions.

It was clear that after their previous battle, while Xu Qing had gained some understanding of his opponent, the latter had also come to comprehend Xu Qing’s methods.

Hence, the instant the youth arrived, he first suppressed Xu Qing’s five elements.

Almost in the same instant that Xu Qing laid eyes on them, the five banners roared to life. They swept through the sky, trailing streams of multicolored light, and in the blink of an eye, they appeared directly above the peak where Xu Qing stood.

Five colors erupted, emitting the power to invert the five elements, enveloping this mountain peak and rapidly circling it.

From afar, it looked like a five-colored storm.

The deafening roar once again shook the heavens and earth, reverberating with an earth-shattering intensity.

Killing intent flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes. With a raise of his hand, the five elements he had set up in the surroundings still erupted violently.

Water rose from the clouds and wood energy emerged from tens of thousands of plants.

Fire appeared in the sky and soil collapsed from the mountain.

As Xu Qing’s killing intent rose, the five elements moved at the same time.

Even though the five large banners were extraordinary and formed a five-colored storm that could reverse the power of the five elements… they couldn’t shake Xu Qing’s five elements too much.

This was because Xu Qing’s five elements were from his visceral organs and didn’t originate from the rules and laws of the outside world.

Thus, in the next moment, the sound became even more intense, with the roaring thunder echoing through the vast expanse.

The clash between Xu Qing’s Five Elements authorities and the five-colored storm was fierce, but it was clear that Xu Qing held the upper hand. The five colors of the storm quickly began to fade, indicating that it would not be long before Xu Qing subdued it.

However, Xu Qing’s opponent was far from ordinary.

The young man, who had emerged from the five-colored storm, did not directly engage in battle. Instead, he remained at the edge of the battlefield, watching from afar with a cold, sinister smile on his lips.

He raised his hand and pointed.

He silently chanted a Dao incantation.

“The sky as the boundary, the void as the curtain, five colors rendered, all laws painted in one stroke!”

As his finger fell, the five large banners that were barely withstanding Xu Qing’s Five Elements authority suddenly trembled. In the blink of an eye, each of the banners exploded.

The five colors erupted in a storm.

They merged together!

From afar, the five colors, which had previously been light, now materialized into a tangible substance. They seemed like five types of paint, mixing together and being splattered across the sky by the storm.

The sky seemed to have transformed into… a colorful painting!

Xu Qing was in this painting.

As for the painter, it was the wind!

The wind was also sealed!

The wind, which was sealed within the five colors, exploded completely at this moment, unleashing a power that could seal the Five Elements.

“I’ll let you know that although your five elements are formidable, the wind surpasses them!”

“With the rise of the great wind, it can stir the earth, extinguish water, wither wood, grind metal, and quell fire!”

“Seal, seal, seal, seal!”

The youth performed a series of hand seals with both hands, pointing out five times in a row.

The five colors of dye, now in chaos and fusion, enveloped Xu Qing completely, forming a seal around him.

This seal not only disrupted and extinguished but also isolated him.

It isolated Xu Qing’s visceral organs and cut off his control over the Five Elements.

Xu Qing’s expression changed.

“This person’s authority… has been developed to the extreme!”

“However, I’ve used the Dao of Space before and it’s impossible for him not to know. So, what’s the point of doing this?”

As Xu Qing pondered, he waved his hand.

Immediately, Fishing the Moon From the Well appeared again.

It reflected everything around.

This time around, Xu Qing didn’t fish out the other party but himself.

In that instant, as the Fishing the Moon From the Well technique activated, Xu Qing had already pulled himself out of the five-colored seal.

He appeared outside the painting, outside the five colors, and outside the mountain peak!

The moment he appeared, the sky rumbled and blue light erupted. A huge stone mace appeared and smashed fiercely at Xu Qing.

The Emperor Sword appeared in Xu Qing’s hand.

The ground quaked, the mountain peak collapsed, and the energy of the earth surged.

First move, Earth Depository.

Slash the stone mace.

The world distorted and the void blurred. A deafening sound exploded.

The Earth Sword’s energy soared into the sky, and the descending mace shook violently, revealing several cracks before it was sent flying.

The Earth Sword, affected by the shockwave, gradually dissipated in the sky, transforming back into earth energy that spread across all directions.

Xu Qing rushed toward the youth.

Seeing that both of his methods had been thwarted by Xu Qing, the youth with the birthmark on the right side of his face narrowed his eyes, becoming more convinced of his previous assessment.

He rapidly retreated and waved his hand.

He threw out something.

This item was like a lump of soil that seemed to contain some spatial ability. Wherever it passed, it would leave a ripple in the air.

After that, under the youth’s will, his authority activated.

First, the fire authority instantly landed on the lump of soil that contained spatial power.

This item was clearly sensitive to fire and instantly melted, emitting an explosive force.

It directly exploded, enveloping the surroundings and falling from the sky like rain.

This rain was viscous.

As the rain of soil fell, the youth’s second authority was also displayed.

A strong wind blew.

This caused the viscous rain to rapidly dry and solidify at this moment, turning into… glue!

Everything in the surroundings, as long as it was within the rain, was rapidly solidifying.

This was also a seal.

With the stickiness it created, it sealed the world.

Xu Qing now understood how the other party had glued his main body to the storage space wall.

His judgment wasn’t wrong. The other party had indeed used a special item.

However, he didn’t expect this.

The way the other party had used this special item!

“By combining two types of authority and an external object, he achieved the effect of the third authority!”

“This person is indeed a genius!”

Xu Qing took a deep breath as his thoughts fluctuated. This battle… was quite meaningful to him.

It gave him many insights.

“If applied to my five elements, the transformations I could achieve would be even more diverse!”

However, Xu Qing knew that now was not the time for deep contemplation. The series of actions taken by his opponent had already revealed an important piece of information.

“He doesn’t want to fight me head-on and doesn’t want to be injured either. He only wants to restrict and seal me!”

“He has acted like this since he returned. In fact, in order to achieve this goal, he didn’t hesitate to expose his secrets…”

“There’s only one answer to all of this.”

“He’s stalling for time!”

As this judgment rose, an intense sense of danger rose within Xu Qing.

“He has helpers on the way and they’re even stronger than him!”

A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes.

“If this continues, it’ll be difficult to end this in a short time. In that case… I can’t withhold the sword energy. I need to resolve this quickly!”

At the same time, some distance away from the battlefield, a figure that was emitting a terrifying aura was using a teleportation technique to approach this place.

This figure was none other than the red-haired youth who had appeared in the spirit mine!

A late-stage Ruler Realm cultivation base energy erupted from his body.

“He destroyed my spirit mine and killed the guardian as well, causing me to lose that battle. He even took the qualifying token that Lingdu was going to offer as tribute!”

“I want to see what kind of dragon heart and phoenix gallbladder you consumed to act so boldly!”
