The woman in red gritted her teeth and her eyes revealed intense killing intent.
“Do you know where my third brother’s qi and blood are going?”
“You’ll find out soon enough.”
Xu Qing remained silent. He didn’t know what to say and could only sigh.
On his way here with the other party, he had heard many things and his understanding of the Moon Worship Region became clear.
However, the more he understood, the more he sensed the oppression of all living beings in this large region.
“Little kid, help me open a gap in the Red Moon restriction here. Just a tiny one will do.” The woman in red looked at Xu Qing and her expression turned calm.
Xu Qing nodded and sat down cross-legged to circulate the Purple Moon Nascent Soul in his body. In an instant, the energy fluctuations of the Red Moon in the surroundings became intense. The power of the restriction suddenly erupted, revealing strands of red threads in the surroundings.
These threads spread in all directions, forming a huge net that enveloped everything. Very soon, the color of one of the many threads changed, revealing a hint of purple.
The moment it completely turned purple, the Red Moon restriction here suddenly paused and slowly rotated.
Xu Qing’s breathing was hurried. To him, it wasn’t difficult to make use of the restrictions here. However, if he wanted to open a gap, it wouldn’t be easy.
Therefore, what he could do at the moment was to absorb the power of the Red Moon here, weakening the restriction and then using his Purple Moon authority to force it open slightly.
This was his current limit.
Time passed slowly, and soon three days had gone by.
During these three days, Xu Qing continuously absorbed and integrated, until at the dusk of the third day, he reached the limits of what he could bear. He suddenly opened his eyes, raised his right hand, and pressed down towards the icy layer below.
The surrounding Red Moon restrictions instantly churned, forming a vortex.
Almost at the instant the vortex appeared, the red-clothed woman’s body blurred. She disappeared, transforming into a ball of blue fog. One could vaguely see a wisp of remnant soul in the fog.
This soul looked like a youth. It was similar to the man under the glacier but was even more dignified. At this moment, it quickly flew out and headed straight for the vortex. In the blink of an eye, it fused into it, trying to rush in.
The Red Moon’s restriction erupted intensely, forming an obstruction. Xu Qing exerted all his strength to control it, but the sensation of trying to move something too heavy for him made his soul feel as if it were tearing apart. Even his Purple Moon Nascent Soul trembled and its expression showed signs of pain.
This was only the remnant soul going from the outside to the inside. Xu Qing could imagine that if it weren’t the remnant soul and if it was something leaving from inside to outside, even if he risked everything, he still wouldn’t be able to successfully let the other party enter or exit.
Even now, he couldn’t do much.
However, the existence in the coffin should have confidence since he chose this place right after escaping.
At that moment, his soul shadow flickered with blue light and burned in exchange for extreme strength. He rushed into the vortex formed by Xu Qing.
Xu Qing coughed out mouthfuls of blood repeatedly due to the pressure. The Purple Moon Nascent Soul also became dispirited. As for the remnant soul of the youth, it finally broke through the restriction.
After entering the restriction, the remnant soul dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye, as though it couldn’t last for long. He didn’t hesitate at all and headed straight for the nail on his third brother’s forehead.
Before he completely dissipated, he fused into the nail and disappeared.
Xu Qing wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and retreated slightly. He then sat down cross-legged and regulated his breathing. He had already done his best. Whether the other party’s plan could really be completed was no longer something he could control.
Moreover, he didn’t have the strength to receive the other party.
At the same time, under the lake far away from here, the hundreds of coffins finally reached the bottom after being dragged by the rainbow tentacles for several days.
There was a vortex there that emitted emotions that contained greed and desire.
These coffins were drawn toward this vortex.
They entered a strange world.
The captain, who was lying in one of the coffins, opened his eyes again, revealing anticipation.
“I’m finally here. Haha, little kids, grandpa is here!”
