“There’s a saying.”

The captain licked his lips and looked at the fleeing figure in the sky with a teasing smile.

“Fate will bring together those a thousand miles apart, yes, this is the phrase.”

“Isn’t that right, Junior Brother? Look, he appeared just like that. However, this time, he won’t be able to escape.”

Xu Qing nodded and lifted his hand. Black flames rose from his body and flowed down his arm to his palm.

The black spear that had just been put away formed in his hand again.

The moment it appeared, the spear tip seemed to burn the void, producing one fine black hole after another that tore through the void with an astonishing aura.

It also caused the bloody aura in all directions to rise into the air. Countless resentful spirits manifested around the spear and let out heart-rending wails of unwillingness.

They couldn’t enter reincarnation.

The wails echoed, filled with a terrifying intent.

The spear in Xu Qing’s hand was like a sword of hell. The ghost fire it stirred up emitted waves of black fire patterns.

The fire erupted and swept through the sky, turning the sky into a sea of fire.

As waves of ripples echoed, it also caused the world to darken.

When this phenomenon landed in the eyes of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven cultivator who was fleeing rapidly in the distance, he felt his scalp go numb. An extremely intense life-and-death crisis and endless regret rose in his heart.

At this moment, he finally understood how his clone died.

“He must have died to this spear!”

“I was too impulsive. I shouldn’t have come here!”

This Flame Moon Mystic Heaven cultivator’s face was pale and he instinctively took a few deep breaths. He used everything he had to forcefully increase his speed and escape with all his might. He even tried to teleport, but this required time.

A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes. He held his spear and threw it toward the horizon.

It pierced through the air, letting out a sharp sound as if heaven and earth were being split apart.

It rapidly approached the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race cultivator.

The void shattered and the sky turned blurry. Only the spear was clear like a mark in the sky. It instantly reached the horizon and arrived behind the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven cultivator, locking onto him.

It was about to pierce through him.

At the same time, D132 appeared in the sky. The vast prison caused the Flame Moon cultivator’s heart to tremble uncontrollably.

The image of the prison above his head quickly became clear and was about to envelop him and seal him.

He could foresee that once the prison sealed him, he would be unable to escape calamity and would definitely die. Hence, at the moment of extreme danger, this Flame Moon Mystic Heaven cultivator did an extremely bold thing.

He slapped his forehead without hesitation. Amidst the rumbling, overlapping shadows appeared on his body, it was his soul leaving his body, swiftly departing.

As for the body he left behind, it became his weapon. It pounced toward the black spear on its own.

With a boom, the spear came into contact and his body collapsed. However, the flesh and blood of the Flame Moon cultivator didn’t splatter in all directions. Instead, it coiled in the opposite direction and actually firmly wrapped around the black spear, restraining it.

Even though the flesh and blood were rapidly being destroyed by the power of the black spear, the spear was still stalled for a breath of time.

The Flame Moon cultivator decisively abandoned his eight forbidden mountains and blew his soul at the side, forming a strong wind that blew the eight mountains, causing them to soar into the air with an imposing aura that headed straight for D132.

The eight mountains swayed and expanded, transforming into huge and astonishing mountains. They were extremely domineering, and although they charged toward D132, it was an attempt to delay it.

Amidst the rumbling sounds, Di32’s descent slowed down slightly. Although it recovered quickly, this delay also lasted for a breath of time.

To the cultivator of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven, this breath of time was a moment between life and death.

At the next instant, his teleportation was finally activated. With the help of this breath of time, he suddenly blurred and disappeared from the sky.

At this moment, the flesh and blood that enveloped the black spear also lost its strength and scattered down.

Only the eight forbidden mountains left behind by the Flame Moon cultivator in the sky were kept in the prison under Di32’s suppression.

Xu Qing looked at the void. The other party’s reaction was too fast. If he was slightly indecisive, he would be trapped by D132. At that time, his teleportation method would be meaningless.

However, Xu Qing didn’t feel anything. This was because the captain had said that this person couldn’t escape this time.

According to Xu Qing’s understanding of the captain, this statement was likely not groundless.

This was indeed the case. Seeing that the cultivator had teleported away, the captain smiled and spoke proudly to Xu Qing.

“Didn’t 1 eat the flesh and blood of this cultivator previously? During this period of time, I’ve studied it and learned by analogy. I recalled a great divine power targeted at Flame Moon cultivators that I learned in my past life.”

“This divine power is quite powerful and restrains teleportation. The principle is to trace back to the origin. No matter where he goes, I can get him back.”

With that, the captain raised his hand and grabbed at the ground. Immediately, five pieces of the Flame Moon cultivator’s flesh flew up and landed in front of the captain.

The captain flicked his sleeve and the five pieces of flesh arranged themselves into a pentagon in front of him.

“However, the prerequisite is that you have to possess five items that have the same origin. Flesh and bones are the best.”

With that, the captain raised his hands and performed a series of hand seals. He muttered something and circles of ripples spread out from a piece of flesh, followed by the second piece, the third piece…

Finally, the five pieces of flesh emitted ripples at the same time and collided with each other. As it became increasingly intense, they rose into the air, forming a black vortex.

The captain looked at the vortex and let out a deep shout. His voice carried an ancient feeling that reverberated through the world.

“The soul of heaven and earth, origin descent.”

The moment his voice rang out, the vortex spun increasingly intensely. Vaguely, the soul of the Flame Moon cultivator who had teleported away seemed to be guided and was revealed in the black hole.

At first, it was blurry and distorted, as though it had been stretched. However, it quickly became clear.

In fact, the terror, fear, and disbelief on his face were clearly visible.

At the next instant, the captain laughed sinisterly and grabbed at the vortex. Immediately, the soul of the Flame Moon cultivator who had been summoned back was extracted from thin air.

“You…”

The soul of the Flame Moon cultivator revealed despair. Just as he was about to say something to save his life, the captain ignored him and clenched his hand ruthlessly.

With a bang, his soul collapsed, turning into a pile of green apples that landed on the ground.

Qiu Quezi, who was at the side, rushed over with great judgment. He quickly kept the scattered green apples and handed them to the captain.

The captain lifted his chin and looked at Xu Qing. After noticing the waves in Xu Qing’s eyes, he became even more smug.

“How is it, Little Qing? Is my spell amazing or not?”

Xu Qing nodded and looked at the five pieces of flesh curiously. He could sense a familiar aura emitting from them.

“This spell…”

Before Xu Qing could finish speaking, the captain waved his hand.

“I know that you want to ask about the name of this divine art.”

“Listen carefully. This divine art is called the Ruthless Dao of Great Five Bulls Tracing the Origin.”

After saying that, the captain glanced at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing’s expression changed, as though he was awed by this name.

The captain was even happier.

“Do you want to learn? Eldest Senior Brother will teach you. After you learn it, if others want to escape, you will have a way to get them back.”

With that, the captain cheerfully took out a jade slip, branded it, and tossed it to Xu Qing.

Xu Qing took it. This spell was special. He felt that it might be of great use sometimes, so he nodded.

“Thank you, Senior Brother.”

“Haha, there’s no need to be polite. It’s a small matter.”

What the captain wanted was an attitude, and seeing Xu Qing like this, he felt incredibly satisfied.

At the same time, the eight ownerless forbidden mountains also floated above Xu Qing’s head.

Xu Qing analyzed inwardly.

According to the Flame Moon Senior in the palace, if 1 want to become first in this first segment, I might need a thousand forbidden mountains.’

‘I still have to work hard.’

Xu Qing retracted his gaze and looked at the captain.

The captain grinned and guessed Xu Qing’s thoughts. Hence, the two of them moved at the same time and transformed into two rainbows that headed straight for the distance.

When Qiu Quezi saw this scene, his breathing became hurried. He felt that meeting these two was his opportunity and there was no reason for him to let it go. Hence, he flew out as well, following behind.

Just like that, three figures gradually flew out of the forbidden zone and slowly left for the Flame Moon Inner Region.

As for this forbidden zone, it slowly returned to calm. The mutated beasts inside appeared one after another. The 27 forbidden mountains that had disappeared were occupied by blood-red grass.

Several hours later, some cultivators appeared in the sky. They were the cultivators who had left earlier. They had returned to check the situation.

Among them, there were also people who felt regret and felt that they shouldn’t have left so easily.

However, after they arrived, their expressions turned solemn as they sensed the changes here.

This was especially so after they arrived at the location of the mountain range. When they saw the red grass here and smelled the dense blood, their expressions instantly changed and they couldn’t help but gasp.

“Here…”

“How many people died to form such a bloody smell!”

“I didn’t notice anyone leaving. Could it be that… all the cultivators here were killed?”

“That is impossible!”

Gasps spread through the forbidden zone. Some people still didn’t believe it, so they tried to transmit their voices to the communication slips of the cultivators they were familiar with, but there was no response.

Gradually, everyone fell silent before quickly leaving with fear in their eyes.

Just like that, time flowed by. As Xu Qing left and the remaining people spread out, the news of the human cultivators killing hundreds of participants quickly spread from those cultivators. One spread to ten, ten to a hundred…

The news was like a storm that continued to spread in the Flame Moon Mystic

Heaven Race.

It attracted a lot of attention.

The first reaction of those who heard it was disbelief. However, as they investigated, their thoughts stirred.

This was especially so for the Baize Race. They were even more furious. After all, this race had suffered the most casualties this time around. Moreover, their heaven’s chosen was killed.

However, the experts of the Baize Race were also helpless about this matter.

Most of their main forces were on the Black Heaven Race’s battlefield and there weren’t many of them left.

That wasn’t the main point. The main point was that they didn’t dare to violate the rules of the Grand Hunt.

Only participants could attack other participants.

But covert operations were still inevitable, so invisible dark clouds were rising within the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race, and a storm… was imminent..
