353 Spirit Sea Suppresses the Evil Brush

This brush was a bizarre entity!

Xu Qing only took a glance before his pupils contracted.

This brush was half the height of a human. It used the spine of a human as the shaft, the head as the ferrule of the brush, and the hair as the bristle!

There was still flesh and blood on the spine. Although the head was intact, its skin was green like a malicious ghost. Its eerie words after it appeared caused Xu Qing to frown.

As for Saintly Star, he turned a deaf ear to this. He waved his hand and controlled the strange brush to draw a circle in the air.

The instant this circle was drawn, it directly turned from illusory to corporeal. Its color was red and it rapidly spread out in all directions. Like a violent wind, it blew at Xu Qing’s face.

As for the chimeric bizarre entity, it suddenly trembled as though it was suppressed. The cow’s body trembled and retreated before directly collapsing. After it returned into four parts, they collapsed again and completely dissipated.

Saintly Star turned around and looked at Xu Qing with reddened eyes. The head of the brush in his hand emitted a dark glint in its eyes. It also looked at Xu Qing and licked its lips with its long tongue as it spoke.

“Brother, are you going to kill him? He’s so beautiful. After we capture him, how about you use the method you used to deal with me back then? Refine him in your body and snatch his aptitude, turning him into a second brush.”

Saintly Star snorted coldly. In terms of bloodline, this brush was refined from his younger brother. However, he had suppressed and refined his younger brother many years ago and the latter became his treasure. The ancestor and many others in the sect knew about this.

However, as long as the ancestor tacitly agreed that only one of them could live, the others wouldn’t be able to say anything.

This was because he, Saintly Star, was born with a peculiar nature. He and his younger brother were born as conjoined twins and were connected above the waist.

Such a situation wasn’t an exception in the countless years of history of the Wanggu Continent. In reality, there were many situations where life was changed by the arrival of the god due to the integration of anomalous substances.

Even though people or other beings looked normal and there seemed to be no anomalous substances, in reality… the influence had already appeared from the source of their bloodline.

It was just that no one knew if this influence would be revealed in that generation.

Even so, this was unacceptable to Saintly Star. As such, ever since he had his own consciousness, he had wanted to kill his younger brother and his younger brother also had the same thought. In the end, he came out on top.

“Sure, kill him. I’ll allow you to do this!” When he heard his younger brother’s words, Saintly Star spoke gloomily.

Saintly Star’s younger brother’s eyes lit up and its entire body emitted astonishing anomalous substances. At the same time, its eyes revealed a pitch-black light. When it looked at Xu Qing with a greedy expression, Saintly Star waved his hand and drew the strange brush in the shape of a cross toward Xu Qing!

In an instant, the cross shone with a deep red light. It transformed from illusory to real and completely took shape. The cross seemed to be made of blood but was also like skinless bloody flesh, covered in tendons.

After it was formed, the fleshy cross whistled toward Xu Qing.

Wherever it passed, the bizarre entity’s aura filled the air, causing the weather to change.

Xu Qing’s expression was gloomy. He held the jade slip in his hand which details were not clear. He seemed to want to crush it but ultimately gave up.

With a boom, the fleshy cross shot over and came into contact with Xu Qing.

Xu Qing coughed out blood and rapidly retreated. A strange laughter rang out from the fleshy cross and it was about to pursue. However, Xu Qing’s speed wasn’t slow. He frowned and stared fixedly at the fleshy cross that was chasing after him.

By now, he and Saintly Star were both heavily injured, and their weaknesses were clearly displayed. Xu Qing was aware that compared to Saintly Star, he was indeed lacking some divine arts.

In reality, if the person he was comparing with wasn’t Saintly Star, Xu Qing’s spells were actually alright. However, Saintly Star was a heaven’s chosen who wanted to walk the path of the ancient sovereigns and rulers nurtured by the Soaring Cloud Sword Sect with all their might. Naturally, he had a lot of spells and magic artifacts.

“I lack divine abilities and spells, and my magic artifacts aren’t as abundant and varied as his. However… strength can defeat ten techniques1!” A sharp glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes. The purple crystal in his body was showing its great power as it continued to heal his injuries rapidly.

At the same time, the advantage of the 5,000-foot-long spirit sea in his magic apertures was the same. This caused his Mystic Brilliance Form to still be full of power even after activating it for so long. What Xu Qing wanted to do now was to rely on his dense spirit sea that surpassed others to suppress Saintly Star.

The instant the fleshy cross whistled over, Xu Qing’s body suddenly rose into the air. His eyes revealed a bright light as he lifted his right hand toward the sky.

At the next instant, the 92 magic apertures in his body erupted again. The fiery power inside surged. After that, a huge 5,000-foot-long palm directly appeared in the sky above Xu Qing!

This 5000-foot-long palm was formed by the spirit sea in one of his magic apertures. The instant it appeared, as the magic apertures in Xu Qing’s body shone, a second 5000-foot-long palm appeared.

It overlapped with the first palm, forming two layers of power.

This wasn’t the end. As the magic apertures in Xu Qing’s body continued to erupt, three layers, ten layers, thirty layers… Layers of palms instantly overlapped at an extremely fast speed, causing the density of the palm to be increasingly high.

In an instant, violent winds scattered in all directions and a strange pressure descended from the sky.

This scene caused Saintly Star’s eyes to widen and waves of emotions to surge in his mind. The spirit sea in Xu Qing’s magic aperture was too shocking. In his entire life, he had never seen anyone’s spirit sea reach such a terrifying level.

Even he had only reached over 2,000 feet!

“You…” Saintly Star’s expression changed drastically. He was very clear that the spirit sea in the magic apertures represented the density of magic power. Although this advantage wasn’t great at the start, as the cultivation deepened and the number of magic apertures increased, this advantage would become incomparably terrifying.

This was the case.

In an instant, the palms above Xu Qing’s head directly stacked 92 times!

From afar, the instant the palms stacked 92 times, the world rumbled. The pressure was so great that lightning bolts appeared at the edges of the palm. They were like snakes and dragons roaming in the edges as they spread out.

The palm’s aura was so terrifying that it seemed to want to devour the heavens!

Even the fleshy cross that was chasing Xu Qing stopped in mid-air, revealing intense fear.

Xu Qing didn’t have the sword divine arts like Saintly Star in which every sword strike was peerless. He also didn’t have a bizarre object like the black door, or an accompanying treasure like the fleshy brush.

However, he had 92 layers of 5,000 feet of spirit sea!

No matter how strange you are, no matter what spells you use, no matter what items you show, I’ll suppress them all!

At the next instant, the veins on Xu Qing’s forehead bulged. It was as though the 5,000-foot-long palm that had been stacked 92 times had an indescribable heaviness. His body emitted cracking sounds and tendons bulged on his arm. He then pressed fiercely toward the fleshy cross and Saintly Star!

The might of the 92 times stacked giant palm had the power to suppress mountains and seas. It instantly collided with the fleshy cross that was filled with a bizarre aura. A rumbling sound rang out. The fleshy cross lasted for five breaths of time before it dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye and shattered into pieces.

Wherever the large palm passed, everything would be destroyed under its extreme violence. Behind the palm was Xu Qing’s figure. He used all his strength to push the power of all of his spirit sea.

The ground trembled and countless trees turned to dust. The eruption of terrifying power instantly approached the pale-faced Saintly Star.

At this critical moment, determination flashed in Saintly Star’s eyes. He let out a low shout and controlled the strange brush in his hand, turning it into a sword that stabbed fiercely at the incoming large palm.

The magic apertures in his body also erupted as their power surged into the strange brush, causing the face of his younger brother’s head to become even more sinister. Although there was horror in its eyes, there was more madness as though it wanted to die!

Waves of sounds rumbled like thunder in the forbidden region.

Xu Qing and Saintly Star each spat out a mouthful of blood. Their expressions were sinister and their eyes revealed ferocity as they went all out.

As this sound reverberated, the strange brush emitted a piercing light and trembled intensely. As for Xu Qing’s large palm, 33 layers of it instantly collapsed.

At this moment, the light of the strange brush dimmed a little and a mournful cry rang out. That was the younger brother’s madness. However, no matter how crazy it was, it was useless. After 43 layers of Xu Qing’s large palm collapsed, the brush bristles broke inch by inch and turned into dust.

In Saintly Star’s younger brother’s eyes, amidst the endless madness, there seemed to be a hint of relief as well. In the end, it flashed a sinister smile as it used all its strength to collide with the palm again. This collision caused Xu Qing’s large palm to collapse by another 13 layers.

The price was that the head of Saintly Star’s younger brother directly exploded. Before it exploded, its last voice rang out in all directions with sharpness and resentment.

“Chu Shengyun, do you still remember the curse I planted on you when you refined me? I cursed that in the future, you will be refined like me and your everything will be snatched away. Although you used the perpetual will door formed by the Taboo fragment to erase the essence of my curse, it seems that my curse is still effective!”

The shrill sound carried a long laughter. The moment it dissipated, Xu Qing’s large palm landed on the brush, destroying it completely. Finally, when there were only 21 layers left, it landed on Saintly Star’s body.

Saintly Star’s entire body trembled violently and he coughed out a lot of blood. The life fires in his body were swaying intensely as though they would be extinguished.

His body was sent flying. However, the killing intent in his eyes didn’t decrease at all. In fact, there was even a hint of dark light flickering in them.

“You can curse as you please. You died a worthy death.” The moment Saintly Star landed on the ground, his expression revealed madness. He slapped the ground ruthlessly and shouted.

“Body Curse Myriad Blood Refinement!”

As soon as he spoke, Xu Qing’s expression darkened.

The ground where the dust from the strange brush that had collapsed earlier landed suddenly exploded. Flesh arms rapidly rushed out from within. There were thousands of them and they spread crazily, wrapping around Xu Qing from all directions.

At the same time, Saintly Star looked up with a sinister expression and his voice became sinister.

“Summon my Soaring Cloud’s Taboo’s projection!”
