Chapter 1114 The First God
The vast river of divine blood was turbulent.
The river is wide, and at a glance, it is boundless, as if it is connected to the sky, and the vast momentum is awe-inspiring.
It is unimaginable how many gods have been killed to gather such a level of divine blood, making this river of divine blood have such a terrifying scale.
Especially under the aurora of the sky, the blood-colored river shone with dim light, like countless blood jumping on the water.
I want to compete with the aurora.
constitutes a magnificent picture.
This picture scroll is thick, contains the precipitation of history, witnesses the changes of heaven and earth, carries the story of gods and immortals, and is also a witness to the change in the pattern of the fifth star ring.
The meaning is far-reaching.
At this moment, in this bloody picture, the lone boat was riding the wind and waves, moving forward.
The voice from the boatman also echoed between the heavens and the earth.
Every sentence, every word, was like thunder, roaring in Xu Qing's heart, like a Taoist sound.
"The only Immortal Venerable."
"Fifth Ancestor."
All these words quickly gathered in Xu Qing's mind until they turned into the figure of an old man.
The old man was the old man Xu Qing saw in the map of the Demon Feather Holy Land, sitting cross-legged in the fifth star ring, and he was also the one he saw in the sea outside the Wanggu Continent.
"Senior, why is the Immortal Venerable...... Will it be called the Fifth Ancestor?"
After a while, Xu Qing took a deep breath and asked in a low voice.
The boatman picked up the bong, took a puff, exhaled the smoke, and opened his mouth lightly.
"The thirty-six star rings in the ascending star belong to the upper realm, and each of them has a different number of lower planetary rings, that is, the lower realm."
"Some of the lower planetary rings have names, and some do not."
Speaking of this, the boatman glanced at Xu Qing, this glance seemed to have a deep meaning.
"And the descending realm of the fifth star ring does not have a name, where a long time ago, when the gods of the fifth star ring were crisscrossing, the planetary ring below it was called the fifth lower realm."
"Among them, all races are enslaved by the gods, and all races need to worship the gods to survive."
"Then the war, the resistance, the suppression, the rise, the collapse of the world, and the battle with the gods."
"Every time, it is a failure, and after failure, the Fifth Realm is erased from everything, starts over, and continues to become the food of the gods."
The boatman's voice fluctuated, and his words seemed to become a symbol of time, interweaving a long river of time and flowing into Xu Qing's cognition.
"Until the last time, under the leadership of the emperor of the fifth realm human race at that time, unprecedented brilliance burst out, making this war between immortals and gods, down and above, show the ultimate in it."
"During the war, as the human emperor of the fifth realm stepped into the level of Immortal Venerable, there was also an accident with the original divine venerable of the fifth star ring, which finally subverted the fifth star ring and changed the pattern."
"That's why he is called the Fifth Ancestor."
After the boatman finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at the sky, his expression filled with emotion.
Xu Qing listened silently, history has its similarities in many times.
For example, this fifth star ring is actually very similar to the Wanggu Continent to some extent.
It's just that obviously, the development here is smoother.
"Then the other planets are ...... rings," Xu Qing asked instinctively.
"Most of them failed, there was only one place, which could have succeeded, but due to some accidents, it also failed."
The boatman's voice shook his head with some reminiscence.
"Because, the thirty-six star rings that ascend do not belong to monks or immortals, here...... It is God's domain."
"God and immortal, on these two roads, immortals...... There is a limit, and you will fall into a trap."
The boatman's tone was a little low.
"To be precise, Immortal, after reaching the level of Immortal Venerable, there is no way forward, for countless years, the Immortal Venerable of the Fifth Star Ring has always stopped."
"And God...... Above the gods, there are gods!"
"Gods are not legends, they are real."
"Although only one has appeared throughout the ages, this one is called the original god, and it is said that it was his appearance that created the world of up and down."
"This theory of creation is difficult to distinguish between true and false, and the history is too old to have conclusive evidence."
The boatman's words shocked Xu Qing even more dramatically than his previous words.
"The original god ......" Xu Qing was breathing rapidly, and before he could finish speaking, the boatman already knew what he wanted to ask.
"He went to an unknown land and never returned."
"And countless epochs have passed since then, and no second god has appeared in the ascending thirty-six star rings, until the desolation in the ninth star ring."
"He is the most promising person to become a god after the original god, and thankfully, he ultimately failed."
"Otherwise......"
The boatman didn't say the consequences, but Xu Qing could already imagine it.
If the upper desolation is successful, then the entire ascending thirty-six star rings, the divine power will skyrocket countless times, immortal ...... There will be no possibility of survival from now on.
Xu Qing was silent, digesting the words from the ferryman in front of him.
During this day, the other party said a lot, from the core and division of the Dominant Realm, the ability of quasi-immortals, and the entire worldview, and it seemed that there was nothing to hide, and they were all informed.
This approach is obviously beyond the scope of the ferryman's duties.
There is no need for the other party to tell themselves these things.
Think back to the earliest time, when you were being hunted, what the other party did......
All this, Xu Qingruo still has no guesses, and it is unrealistic, in his heart, there are already a lot of thoughts.
He suspected that the ferryman in front of him ...... It has an old relationship with the ancients.
As for whether it was from Wanggu, or whether it was familiar with some cultivators from Wanggu, Xu Qing couldn't figure it out, but he noticed that the other party's eyes swept over his sword many times.
So, after Xu Qing pondered, he suddenly spoke.
"Senior, do you know about the ancient ......"
The boatman narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
Xu Qing waited for a long time and sighed in his heart.
Although the other party did not respond, the non-response itself actually represented some answers.
"Senior, there has been a drastic change in Wanggu......"
The boatman still said nothing, smoking a bong and exhaling smoke.
Xu Qing was silent.
There is no choice to ask.
In this way, time flies, the sixth day...... Gradually arrived.
The cost of crossing the river is the life of the person crossing the river for six days, because the time to cross the river is fixed for six days.
At this moment, as the sixth day passed, this vast river of divine blood appeared in Xu Qing's eyes.
It was the Western Star Field of the Fifth Star Ring.
Near here, the river also calmed down, and the waves gradually decreased, but the boat remained, a few hours later, when the sixth day was about to pass......
Finally, they reached the western shore.
The soil here is different from the swamps in the south, there are no swamps in sight here, and the earth is red, as if it contains fire energy.
"Go down, if you cross the river for the second time, the cost will no longer be six days of life, but one sixteen days."
The boatman spoke lightly.
Xu Qing took a deep breath, got up and bowed, didn't say much, shook his body and stepped out of the lonely boat and stepped to the shore.
Stepping on the land in the west, Xu Qing turned around and looked at the boat.
On the boat, the boatman wearing a raincoat and a hat was smoking a bong, and the smoke he exhaled made his figure even more hazy.
Recalling the past six days, Xu Qing lowered his head and bowed again.
"Thank you, senior."
Although the other party did not respond to his inquiries in the last few days and did not speak again, the things he told him before were of great significance.
It is equivalent to directly opening Xu Qing's understanding of the world.
So according to Xu Qing's way of acting, this is a great favor.
So his bow was extremely sincere.
After bowing, Xu Qing turned around and left quickly into the distance.
Until his figure disappeared on the shore, on the river of divine blood, in the lonely boat, the boatman slowly raised his head and looked in the direction Xu Qing was leaving.
"Holding the sword, has that stubborn guy fallen......"
He muttered in a reminiscence tone.
After a while, he sighed softly.
"Looking at the ancients...... I haven't heard these two words for a long time, and my name, I'm afraid that the Wan tribe in the past has long forgotten...... It has been erased from history."
In the midst of muttering, the boatman raised his right hand and looked down at his palm.
In his palm, at this moment, there were runes that looked like human faces shining, emitting a strange aura.
If Xu Qing was here, he would definitely be able to recognize it at a glance......
Those runes that shine like human faces are impressive...... Immortal art!
At the same time, in mid-air in the western part of the fifth star ring, Xu Qing, who had left the shore, also heard the sound of a mud fox breathing in his ears during this galloping.
"The person before...... It's a bit scary, I feel like the moment he saw you, he had the idea of catching me out and ravaging me hard."
"Xu Qing, this place you came to is not fun at all!"
The mud fox was frightened, especially when he recalled the river of blood of the gods, his heart trembled even more.
"Forget it, I'll continue to sleep......"
The mud fox muttered, and quickly restrained his breath again.
Seeing Xing Yan like this, Xu Qing couldn't say anything, he had already reminded the other party that he was going to a place and might not welcome the gods.
But obviously, Xingyan at that time did not believe it.
"After that, it may be more dangerous......"
Xu Qing hesitated, and finally reminded him again.
In an instant, the mud fox's aura became more restrained to a greater extent.
Such a gesture is rarely seen in Wanggu, and you can imagine how intimidating the ferryman is to Xingyan.
While Xu Qing was pondering, the figure of the ferryman couldn't help but appear in his heart.
"Who is he......
Xu Qing murmured.
There is no answer to this matter.
After a while, Xu Qing took a deep breath and buried this matter in his heart, and the map and information of the Western Star Field came to his mind.
The Western Star Domain, compared to the other three domains, was weak overall, especially the Western Orthodox Dao Immortal Sect, which was also a bit down.
The fundamental reason is that the western sky survey has an extraordinary mentality, and does not care about the development of the sect, nor does it have the views of the unexpected world.
Most of the monks in the entire sect looked indifferent.
But because of this, the family power here is more than the other three domains, competing with each other, encroaching on each other, and developing and growing.
Looking at this information, Xu Qing thought of the star in the west.
As the weakest of the eight stars, this person was a disciple of the Dao Immortal Sect Surveying the Heavens.
"Li Mengtu ......"
"The family has a characteristic, all direct clansmen have a local character in their names."
"In the early stage of cultivation dominance, he had four powers, and his own combat power combined with a strange technique inherited from his family, as well as the cultivation from his master, and he had a record of killing the middle stage of domination."
In his thoughts, Xu Qing stared at the world in the west.
"This place is much more comfortable than the south, suitable for healing, but not suitable for challenge and self-improvement."
"But now for me, the key is to find a place first and strive for early recovery from injury."
"As for the way back...... Act according to the situation."
Xu Qing's eyes showed decisiveness, his body shook, and he moved forward rapidly.
