Chapter 1535: Washing Vegetables
Translator: Atlas Studios | Editor: Atlas Studios
On the transparent sea, inside the terrifying purplish red sarcoma, as the voice rang out and the aura spread out…
A storm rose in the entire transparent sea, transforming into a tsunami.
The rumbling sound was earth-shattering, forming a huge wave that swept over, as though it wanted to overturn the world.
The sky formed by flesh also squirmed. The countless fleshy tentacles on it swayed. As for the flesh gap that everyone had entered from, it abruptly closed. This made this place a dangerous land.
Only the mocking voice echoed in the dangerous land, lingering for a long time.
When the various Rulers heard this, their expressions darkened and regret rose in their hearts.
They shouldn’t have come here.
Greed didn’t decrease with the growth of one’s cultivation. Everything depended on whether the value was enough.
These Ruler-level experts didn’t lack the heart to fight; otherwise, it would be very difficult for them to reach this point.
Hence, it was only natural for them to come here after thinking that they had a chance.
At this moment, all of them instinctively retreated and activated powerful barriers. As they searched for a way to break through the situation, they also placed their hopes on the Demon Feather Great Emperor.
Among them, other than the Fifth Ruler who had transformed into Lin Kun and decided to come on his own, the others had decided to come under the persuasion of the Demon Feather Great Emperor and the promise of a Dao oath.
Nothing was set in stone.
This was especially so when the Empress and Demon Feather joined forces.
It wasn’t impossible for them to obtain the authorities, inheritances, or Great Emperor treasures they were targeting.
As for Xu Qing and Erniu…
They also had their own goals.
Xu Qing’s goal was relatively simple. He wanted to break through the shackles of his cultivation. Although the power emitted by the transparent sea here wasn’t spiritual energy or divine power, the life force contained in it allowed him to see hope.
This place is extremely suitable for improving my cultivation!’
As for Erniu, what he was looking at was the sarcoma.
Looking at the figure inside, he couldn’t help but lick his lips. His initial goal in coming here was to control a Great Emperor’s corpse.
It was obvious that this goal was very difficult to achieve.
However, he still had a second goal, and that was to activate the bone cauldron of his previous life and find the memories of his second life.
He lacked the memories of his second and first lives.
He had a feeling that only by grasping the memories of his second life would he have a chance to pursue the source of the first life.
The instant everyone retreated with their own goals in mind, the Empress and the Demon Feather Great Emperor headed straight for the sarcoma…
On the transparent sea, in the huge sarcoma, Great Emperor Nether Flame, who was sitting cross-legged, raised his right hand.
The sky shook and fell.
This scene caused a commotion.
It was as though the sky wanted to destroy the earth!
It crushed everything.
Its aura was world-shaking!
At the same time, the void in the surroundings fluctuated in unison. It was as though it had materialized and suddenly squeezed toward the center with vast power.
The sea below was the same. It rose into the air and welcomed the sky and the surrounding void.
The entire world seemed to be rapidly shrinking together, forming a seal.
In Xu Qing’s perception, he only felt that the world was blurry and the pressure was endless. The surroundings were being repelled but after his mind shook, everything he saw was normal.
The sky was still the flesh sky.
The ground was still the transparent sea.
There weren’t many changes in the surroundings either.
Only the Empress and the Demon Feather Great Emperor… were enveloped by a layer of purplish-red flesh sphere.
It was formed by the sky and sea as well as the void.
This was because at that instant just now, the center of the gathering point of the world and the surroundings was the Empress and the Demon Feather Great Emperor!
It was very difficult for Xu Qing to clearly describe this scene.
He only had a strong feeling that this world was like a fruit.
And everyone was located at the core of this fruit, where just a moment ago, the Great Emperor Nether Flame had used unimaginable power to hollow out the fruit from within.
And then, the excavated portion was compressed into a sphere!
I he Empress and the Demon Feather Great Emperor were sealed inside. Before Xu Qing’s perception could clear, the same scene appeared again. It wasn’t until it happened twenty-three times that everything finally came to an end!
The surroundings were normal and so was the world.
However, they seemed… somewhat thin.
Everyone was shaken.
Nether Flame continued.
1 ve set up this trap for a thousand years. I was only waiting for the Demon feather to arrive at the crucial moment, so that I could possess him to make it my new body.”
In the sarcoma, Great Emperor Nether Flame calmly spoke.
“And you guys are nutrients for me to complete my new life.”
“The appearance of a Divine Platform was unexpected, but… it is also a pleasant surprise.”
Nether Flame spoke as his gaze fell upon the sarcoma that sealed the Empress and the Demon Feather Great Emperor. After scanning it, he looked towards the group of cultivators whose expressions had drastically changed.
“My world has 33 layers. I separated 23 layers and turned them into seals.”
“Now, there are still ten layers left which are for you all.”
After he finished speaking, Nether Flame slightly lowered his raised right hand.
At the next instant, no matter how everyone struggled, resisted, or evaded, it was useless. In an instant… the world rumbled.
One of the layers turned into flesh and blood, enveloping the woman in palace clothes.
Another layer turned into a cage that sealed the Fifth Ruler.
There was also the scholar, the youth, and the old man who had a grudge against Xu Qing and Erniu. They couldn’t escape their fate and were enveloped by the layers that Nether Flame had stripped away from the world.
They turned into sarcomas that floated in the air.
There was also a sarcoma that sealed Xu Qing and Erniu inside.
After doing this, Nether Flame closed his eyes and his chest heaved as he breathed evenly.
He inhaled and all the sarcomas floating in the air shook in unison and began to shrink.
As soon as he breathed out, all the sarcomas shook again and swelled.
In the process of inhaling and exhaling, the life force and cultivation of everyone within the sarcomas were dispersed.
An intense sense of danger descended.
At this critical moment, the sarcoma, formed from 23 layers of world, where the Empress and the Demon Feather Great Emperor were sealed in, suddenly trembled. A muffled rumble echoed from within, and the sarcoma itself began to reverse its state.
When Nether Flame inhaled, the sarcoma was affected from within, preventing
it from contracting. Instead, it expanded with full force.
When Nether Flame exhaled, the process reversed, essentially borrowing Nether Flame’s own power to create a contradictory force of impact. This caused the massive sarcoma sealing the Empress and Demon Feather to continually reverberate, eventually leading to the appearance of cracks.
Nether Flame frowned slightly.
At the next instant, more cracks appeared on the sarcoma that sealed the Empress and the Demon Feather. Streaks of divine light flooded out, accompanied by the power of the Demon Feather’s authority.
In just the time of three breaths, the sealed sarcoma formed by 23 layers of the world suddenly exploded.
The Empress’ figure rushed out and headed straight for the sarcoma where Nether Flame was at.
Wherever She passed, the void shattered.
The Demon Feather Great Emperor’s killing intent soared as they attacked together.
Their momentum was unstoppable.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them broke through the sarcoma where
Nether Flame was and stepped in to fight him.
The entire sarcoma instantly swelled up and the inside was badly mangled.
Outsiders couldn’t see the details.
Moreover, they didn’t have the space to pay attention to that place now. Right now, all the Rulers were using this opportunity to unleash all their trump cards, wanting to break through the sarcomas that sealed them.
They all used different methods. Some used secret techniques, while others used hidden Great Emperor treasures.
They were using everything disregarding the cost.
On Xu Qing and Erniu’s side, they were also attacking with all their might.
While using the Empress’ token to resist the pressure, Xu Qing slashed with the fate carving knife.
However, this sarcoma was bizarre. It was as though it was in the gaps of fate.
After cutting open a layer, there was actually another layer, and it seemed to be endless.
Erniu opened his mouth wide, attempting to swallow the sarcoma in reverse,
but it was all to no avail.
It was the same for the other parties. No matter what method they used, they could not break through it at all… Even if they broke through it, they would discover that there were still more layers left.
This scene caused everyone to have a misconception.
“Is this seal really formed from one layer? It’s fine if we can’t open it, but I can sense those Rulers using their trump cards. Some even used Great Emperor treasures but none of them succeeded in breaking through the sarcomas.”
Erniu took a deep breath.
Xu Qing’s eyes flashed.
“But why did Nether Flame say that… Maybe these seals aren’t formed from one layer!”
Erniu hesitated when he heard this.
“If that’s the case, I don’t understand why Nether Flame would do that. What’s the point of lying to us? Or rather, putting multiple seals on us is clearly not as effective as placing them on the Empress and Demon Feather.”
“After all, we aren’t the ones who pose the greatest threat to him.”
Similar doubts not only appeared in Xu Qing and Erniu’s minds but also in the minds of the other Rulers.
As Erniu spoke, a drastic change suddenly occurred!
Almost all of the sarcomas squirmed intensely, rapidly contracting before suddenly expanding. They used this force to form pressure that landed on every Ruler.
The strength of this pressure exceeded the limit of what a Ruler could withstand.
Hence, at the next instant, mournful cries rang out from the mouths of the various Rulers.
lheir bodies were collapsing and then being refined, their lives forcefully sucked away.
It was the same for cultivation. Under the absorption of the pressure, it was cruelly extracted.
There were also souls and authorities.
Even the magic treasures couldn’t escape.
They continued to collapse under this pressure and were being absorbed, as though they had turned into spirit stones!
Absolute power caused them to be unable to resist. They could only wail in pain amidst despair and helplessness.
The reason why it was only almost all of the sarcomas… was because among these sarcomas, the one Xu Qing and Erniu were in was different from the others!
The sarcoma they were in didn’t shrink. It only expanded, causing the internal space to expand…
Such a change caused Erniu’s breathing to become hurried. Xu Qing also felt endless danger.
At the next instant… endless life force rumbled over from all directions and directly… gushed in through the sarcoma where Xu Qing and Erniu were!
These life forces were extracted from those Rulers.
Under the control of a certain mysterious hand, they were all sent to the sarcoma where Xu Qing and Erniu were.
The previous swelling of the sarcoma was clearly to accommodate it.
In the blink of an eye, all the life essence absorbed from those Rulers gathered into a liquid that flowed past Xu Qing’s ankle and nourished his entire body through his flesh.
The focus was on nourishing the physical body.
This scene caused Erniu to gasp.
As for Xu Qing, his mind rumbled intensely as he thought of something.
He recalled the scenes that happened in the memory fragment realm containing the Creation Heavenly Race.
“Someone is pushing my body to grow!”
Xu Qing’s heart skipped a beat. He recalled that before, he felt that although
the cleansing of the Creation Heavenly Race seemed to be a blessing, the most
fundamental reason seemed to be… washing vegetables!
Before eating, they were washed clean..
