297 Extermination Edict

Xu Qing turned his head and stared at the captain with bloodshot eyes.

“Little Qing, life is a unique experience. There’s bitterness, sweetness, sorrow, and joy. It’s not a single color, nor can it be a single color.”

“This is something that even the god in the sky can’t change. Because we are humans and not wild beasts, so… I understand your sadness and your urge to kill.”

“What I want to tell you is that you can do whatever you want and follow your heart to walk in the path that belongs only to you.” The captain smiled. His smile was gentle and sunny.

The light from his smile entered Xu Qing’s eyes and his murderous mind, stirring up a fluctuation.

Xu Qing fell silent. He rarely heard such words. The last two people who talked about life with him like this were Captain Lei and Grandmaster Bai.

After a long while, Xu Qing seriously glanced at the captain and nodded heavily. He then looked at Lord Sixth, who was searching the princess’ soul, and waited for his answer.

He only handed the princess of the Starfish Race. As for the bizarre fiend, Xu Qing didn’t hand it over. He hadn’t tortured it enough and it knew too much about him.

Moreover, now that the mastermind had been found, the information from the princess of the Starfish Race was enough.

As the soul search continued, Lord Sixth’s body slowly trembled and the veins on his forehead bulged one after another. His eyes gradually turned bloodshot and his breathing became hurried. He involuntarily let out huffing sounds that seemed to be filled with extreme grief and indignation.

At the next instant, Lord Sixth seemed to have seen a key memory. His entire body trembled fiercely. With a boom, the Starfish Race’s princess’ body exploded into blood mist. Her soul was directly extracted by Lord Sixth and thrown into his mouth as he chewed fiercely.

As he chewed, the redness in his eyes increased.

Without saying anything, he performed a series of hand seals and pointed at the sky. Immediately, the Seven Blood Eyes’ array formation rumbled. Streams of light descended from the dome of the array formation and headed straight for the main city.

The main city quaked and the ground seemed to be churning. Miserable screams echoed from various areas as one figure after another was pulled into the air by the power of the array formation.

From afar, the number of those figures was about 200. They were all cultivators of the Starfish Race and there were three Golden Cores among them. At that moment, these three people’s eyes were filled with panic and horror.

However, no matter how they struggled, it was useless. Under the mighty power of the Seven Blood Eyes’ array formation, they couldn’t even put up a counterattack. In an instant, they were brought before Lord Sixth.

Over 200 Starfish cultivators were held in the air before Xu Qing and the others. Because they were pulled too fast, many of their bodies couldn’t withstand the force and exploded. The remaining cultivators screamed and cried.

Lord Sixth’s eyes revealed ruthlessness. He opened his mouth and sucked fiercely. Immediately, the color of the sky changed and the wind and clouds rolled back.

The cultivators in the air let out ear-piercing screams. Their bodies withered at a speed visible to the naked eye and their souls were all extracted by Lord Sixth.

One could see wisps of soul shadows rapidly spreading out of the seven orifices of these Starfish Race cultivators, heading straight for Lord Sixth. Among them were the three Golden Cores’ souls.

To Lord Sixth, there was no difference between Golden Core, Foundation Building, and Qi Condensation!

In an instant, more than 200 souls were swallowed by Lord Sixth. As he chewed and obtained more information, the blood vessels in his eyes increased. Finally, amidst the mournful cries, Lord Sixth swallowed all the souls.

He closed his eyes. A few breaths later, he opened his eyes again; this time, there was a monstrous killing intent in them. He took a deep breath and looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing endured the terrifying pressure and stared at Lord Sixth.

“Xu Qing, this old man owes you a favor. If Old Seventh doesn’t accept you as his disciple, I’ll accept you as my personal disciple!”

After Lord Sixth finished speaking, he took out a blue voice transmission jade slip.

This jade slip was different from other jade slips Xu Qing had seen. It didn’t look like it was forged from spirit jade but something even more precious. In fact, it contained an aura comparable to a Golden Core.

Holding this blue jade slip, Lord Sixth calmly spoke.

“Old Seventh!”

In reality, he did not have to speak and could simply transmit his voice through his divine sense.

However, he knew that Xu Qing was the one who found out about this and also knew the reason why Xu Qing had investigated in the first place. Hence, Lord Sixth simply spoke directly so that Xu Qing would know the cause and effect of this matter.

“This matter has been investigated clearly. Many years ago, the Starfish Race obtained the first volume of the Lunar Chosen Transformation Pill, so they began to secretly capture the heaven’s chosen of various races. They did it very secretly and have captured many of them over the years. My son was one of them.”

“Their main medicine has taken shape but they lack the second volume, and this resulted in the assassination of Grandmaster Bai. They should have prepared for a long time for this.”

“As for the Starfish Race’s visit to the Seven Blood Eyes this time, they were here to secretly provide support. On the surface, this matter looks like the Starfish Race rushed into danger and did such a huge thing because of their ambitions. Whether it was the order to capture heaven’s chosen back then or taking the second volume of the pill formula from Grandmaster Bai, it was all personally ordered by the Starfish Race’s patriarch.”

“However, the Starfish Race is weak. They don’t even have a Nascent Soul cultivator. Even if their ancestor is hiding his cultivation base, it’s impossible for such a race to have the guts to do such a monstrous thing. It’s also impossible for them to do such a thing so meticulously that I didn’t notice it all these years.”

“There must be another secret behind this matter. What do you think?” Lord Sixth said calmly.

At the side, Xu Qing’s breathing was hurried. Killing intent rose in his eyes and his baleful aura spread out. He heard that the mastermind was the Starfish Race’s patriarch and also heard that there was another secret to this matter.

Xu Qing believed that he would find out what the secret was soon. However, his strongest thought at this moment was to kill the Starfish Race’s patriarch!

Just as Xu Qing’s heart was filled with killing intent, Old Master Seventh’s deep voice rang out from the blue jade slip in Lord Sixth’s hand.

“The Starfish Race betrayed the alliance and should be exterminated. Moreover, it has to be done quickly. However, I can’t return now…”

“There’s no need for you to return. Help me ask the ancestor if he can let me do as I please. I’ve been suppressing my feelings for many years and I want to kill.” The killing intent in Lord Sixth’s eyes was the same as Xu Qing’s and they were both unable to restrain it.

There was no sound from the jade slip. After about ten breaths, a gloomy and hoarse voice suddenly rang out.

“Six, listen up!”

“Ancestor!” Lord Sixth immediately greeted respectfully. Xu Qing, the captain, and the others also lowered their heads.

“It’s been hard on you all these years… Go and exterminate the Starfish Race!”

Lord Sixth lifted his head, his eyes revealing madness. Xu Qing also lifted his head, and killing intent erupted from his eyes.

“I follow the decree of the ancestor!” Lord Sixth took a deep breath and looked at the distant sky. He then laughed, but the laughter was filled with endless sorrow and madness. In the end, it was almost like crying.

After that, he waved his hand. Immediately, the Sixth Peak in the distance quaked and stirred up countless dust and fog. This towering mountain actually rose into the air!!

An earth-shattering sound shook the surroundings. At the same time, an indescribably huge pressure spread in all directions as the entire Sixth Peak arrived.

Cave abodes opened one after another on the Sixth Peak. Many Sixth Peak disciples who were in seclusion walked out one after another. There were many Golden Cores and Foundation Building cultivators among them.

Although most of the Sixth Peak’s disciples had gone to the war with the Sea Corpse Race, to the Sixth Peak, they didn’t lack magic artifacts and puppets. Hence, at the next instant, as the terrifying mountain rumbled, puppets flew out of the mountain and spread in all directions. There were thousands of them densely packed together.

After that, large-scale war magic artifacts were activated on the Sixth Peak.

The incomparably huge Sixth Peak in the sky shone with boundless light and emitted a monstrous aura. The pressure even caused the sky to change color. It floated in the sky like a terrifying and vast war fortress!

Lord Sixth took a step forward and headed straight for this war fortress. As he got closer, the entire Sixth Peak trembled. The thousands of puppets in the surroundings and the Golden Core and Foundation Building disciples guarding the peak knelt down one after another.

“Greetings, Peak Lord!”

Their voices spread in all directions like a flood.

Xu Qing’s heart also trembled. The captain at the side also widened his eyes and muttered in a low voice.

“The old man said that the Sixth Martial Uncle was a heaven’s chosen who was on par with him back then. It’s just that he spent these few years in sadness and he didn’t have the mood to cultivate… This is called not having the mood to cultivate? He f*cking refined the entire Sixth Peak. This is unprecedented. He didn’t use this much effort even when fighting the Sea Corpse Race.”

In the sky, Lord Sixth stopped in his tracks and lowered his head to coldly glance at the captain. The captain shrunk his head and Lord Sixth’s gaze shifted to Xu Qing. His expression softened.

“Xu Qing, this is for you.” As he spoke, he picked up the wine gourd that he had been carrying around all year round. With a gentle shake, a blue light flew out and headed straight for Xu Qing. After it arrived, it transformed into a blue gem pendant that floated in front of Xu Qing.

This gem pendant emitted a resplendent light that contained an astonishing defense. Xu Qing felt that this defense was infinitely majestic, causing his mind to be in turmoil.

“Nascent Soul protection!!” The captain’s eyes were wide open as he exclaimed. His eyes revealed intense envy as he eagerly looked at Lord Sixth in the sky.

“Also, Xu Qing, go bring the ancestor’s calligraphy. The ancestor’s words contain divine power. You hold the ancestor’s words and have my protection. Follow me to the Starfish Race and kill to your heart’s content!!”

“The two of us will vent the pent-up emotions in our hearts!” Lord Sixth took a deep breath. After saying that, he headed straight for the Sixth Peak and stepped on it.

Xu Qing nodded heavily. The killing intent built up in his body was extremely dense. He wanted to kill, kill all the Starfish Race members in sight, kill the Starfish Race’s patriarch, and kill till blood flowed into rivers.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for the pent-up emotions in his heart to dissipate.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be enough people to accompany his teacher in death!

“I obey Lord Sixth’s decree!” Xu Qing cupped his fists and headed straight for the port. When he arrived at the museum, under the greeting nods of the two Golden Core elders inside, he took down the set of words the ancestor had sent and turned to head straight for the Sixth Peak.

Finally, together with the captain who was waiting for him there, the two of them stepped onto the Sixth Peak. As the huge mountain peak in the sky rumbled again, the entire world distorted.

The Sixth Peak tore through the air and headed straight for the Forbidden Sea.

The mountain blurred and the whole mountain teleported!

Toward the Starfish Race!
