685 Junior Brother, I’m Here!! (1)
The momentum of the army was so great that it seemed to have the power to destroy anything in its path, causing all the evil forces in its way to flee far away.

The sky howled, and the earth rumbled, as an atmosphere of solemnity and killing intent continued to rise.

Xu Qing left Qingqin’s right head and arrived in the Sword Holding Court’s giant ship at the front.

Xue Lianzi was here.

Xu Qing specially came here to ask about the Corpse Forbidden. Back then, he was the one who discovered this matter. That large hand from the bronze door had left a deep impression on him.

!!
“The Corpse Forbidden is the same as other forbidden regions. It was formed when the god’s fragmented-face opened its eyes twice.”

“According to the records of the Corpse Forbidden in the ancient books and the many years of exploration, the first thing the god saw countless years ago was an ancient bronze door in the depths of the Forbidden Sea, causing it to transform. It then looked at that door the second time.”

“In reality, it’s the same for many other forbidden regions as well. They are all formed with some special items as their source. Some people analyzed that every time the god’s fragmented-face opens its eyes, it seems to be searching for some item. Of course, there are also people who think that the god’s fragmented-face is screening for something.”

If it was anyone else who asked, Xue Lianzi wouldn’t have explained in such detail. However, it was different since it was Xu Qing who was asking.

He slowly spoke and told everything he knew to his favorite grand-disciple.

Xu Qing fell into deep thought. He recalled that back then, he had used the Seven Blood Eyes’ Taboo to see the broken zither in the forbidden zone beside the Nanhuang Continent’s scavenger campsite.

“As for the emperor of the Corpse Forbidden, it’s actually a life form formed by the aura emitted by the ancient bronze door and has fused with anomalous substances over the countless years.”

“This is also the reason why it didn’t put up any resistance when it was devoured by the bronze door. You can actually treat forbidden regions as a ranch to a certain extent.”

Xue Lianzi looked at Xu Qing and spoke hoarsely.

“It’s just that the rancher is only managing it on behalf of others. It’s also a lamb. The true rancher is in a deep sleep.”

“They are all waiting. They are waiting for the god’s fragmented-face to take a look for the third time, so that they can truly awaken in the baptism of the third gaze, turning their area into a Divine Realm.”

This was the first time Xu Qing had heard of such a saying. After a moment of silence, he suddenly spoke.

“What about the Phoenix Forbidden?”

“Phoenix Forbidden… is different.” Xue Lianzi shook his head.

“The source of the Phoenix Forbidden isn’t an item but the Flame Phoenix itself. And the Flame Phoenix doesn’t need to be asleep; it has always been awake.”

“The Flame Phoenix can wait for the god to open Its eyes for the third time, or it can choose not to wait and advance on its own.”

“So, Flame Phoenix is different.”

“Gah!” Qingqin’s proud cry rang out outside the huge flying ship.

Xu Qing was surprised. He looked at Qingqin outside the huge ship.

Noticing Xu Qing’s gaze, it lifted its right head, revealing dissatisfied emotions.

Xu Qing understood this expression.

He understood that Qingqin wanted to exterminate an entire race…

“Senior, we’re not in a hurry. There will be a chance.” Xu Qing hurriedly comforted.

Only then did Qingqin’s right head droop down. It continued to inhale and exhale the clouds, looking bored.

Xue Lianzi noticed this scene and fell into deep thought.

“Your master is a capable person. It’s his good fortune to accept you and your senior sister as his disciples, and also your good fortune. So, you must live well and grow well. Don’t worry about anything else. While this old man can still jump around, I’ll protect you!”

Xue Lianzi glanced at Xu Qing with deep appreciation.

“Ah? Senior Sister and I? What about Eldest Senior Brother and Third Senior Brother?” Xu Qing was surprised.

“Them? Hehe, I forgot.” Xue Lianzi snorted coldly.
“We cultivators can’t be affected by lust. Your third senior brother was originally doing well, but he just had to seduce the Saintess of the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect. In the end, he didn’t succeed in escaping the marriage, and the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect used it as a leverage to capture him last year.”

“Look at how miserable he has become in the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect. This is the outcome of his cultivation being insufficient!” Xue Lianzi looked angry.

“If his cultivation was high enough, like your master, which Dao companion would dare to say no to him?”

Xu Qing’s expression was strange. He glanced at the ancestor, not sure if there was any other meaning to the other party’s words.

“The current situation is too tragic to look at. Your master can’t be bothered to save him and I don’t want to bring him back either.”

“Your eldest senior brother has also succumbed to desires. wrote a letter to your master, requesting his assistance in arranging a marriage proposal to someone named Tao. He’s neglecting his duties as a Swordbearer and neglecting his cultivation, consumed by his desires!”

Xu Qing remained silent.

“Fourth, your temperament is quite good. You have to remember that for us cultivators, the focus should be on cultivating our abilities rather than getting entangled in worldly desires.”

“When you reach Nihility, you’ll be able to find all kinds of Dao companions; tall, short, fat, thin, whatever you want. There will be all kinds of female cultivators lining up for you to choose from.”

“As someone who has gone through it, you can trust my advice. You need to work hard and strive for excellence!”

Xue Lianzi spoke earnestly.

Xu Qing hesitated for a moment before speaking in a low voice.

“Uhh, what about Second Senior Sister and Huang Yan…”

“That’s different!” Xue Lianzi coughed and glanced at Qingqin outside without saying anything else.

Xu Qing was a little surprised. He noticed Xue Lianzi’s gaze and the scene of Huang Yan sensing him when he used the Seven Blood Eyes’ Taboo appeared in his mind.
