Chapter 1346: Upper Wasteland Right Eye

Xu Qing truly intended to lay himself bare!

To make the long corridor within his soul manifest, Xu Qing could not do so actively.

Therefore, during his years on Mount Zhaoxia, he eventually referenced some special methods and found a way!

That was... to use the Primordial Offering of Cursed Objects to turn himself inside out!

Since the corridor was in his soul, by completely turning himself inside out, performing the offering, and leveraging a life-or-death crisis... according to Xu Qing's calculations, the probability of success was extremely high.

However, this method was excessively cruel and beyond what an ordinary person could endure.

But for Xu Qing, this was the only way.

So, at this moment, as the Emperor Sword descended, the instant the scar originating from his glabella and traversing his entire body was carved out, Xu Qing's cultivation within him violently pulsed outwards.

The next instant.

The Authority of the Red Moon, as an external force, manifested around Xu Qing, transforming into a blood mist and condensing into a blood-colored altar!

Then, Ghost Emperor Mountain became the altar's support, lifting the altar high!

The Golden Crow transformed into chains, connecting Ghost Emperor Mountain to the altar, swaying on their own.

The Power of the Poison Restraint descended out of thin air, transforming into swirling black mist and blessing Xu Qing.

Subsequently, Ding Yi San Er was summoned and appeared.

From within, the crazed old painter emerged, using a millstone to crush the morning glow to color the altar. Then, in the southern corner of the altar, he maniacally laughed as he plunged the paintbrush in his hand into his own glabella.

The stone lion trembled, emitting a shrill roar from its mouth.

Next, from the altar's poisonous mist, the scarecrow swayed out with a sinister grin, kneeling in the eastern corner of the altar and holding the Bottle of Time high with both hands.

In the western corner of the altar, the Hand of God appeared, placing the head from within Ding Yi San Er before it.

The head's voice echoed shrilly.

“You are dead, you are dead, you are dead!”

These scenes... were precisely the Primordial Offering of Cursed Objects!

Its east, west, and south corners already held offerings; only the northern corner in front of Xu Qing remained empty.

Thus, at the moment this offering formed, Xu Qing, sitting cross-legged at the very center of the altar, suddenly swayed.

Instantly, the immortal power within him transformed into invisible sharp blades, centered on the wound in his glabella, sweeping across all parts of his body between his skin and flesh.

Intense pain instantly swept over his mind.

At this moment, Xu Qing's body... his skin and flesh directly separated.

His flesh remained, but his skin... became a garment!

And in the aftermath of this immortal power, his skin peeled off his body towards both sides, eventually separating completely from him and falling in front of Xu Qing, in the northern corner of the altar.

Xu Qing, astonishingly, had peeled off his own skin to become an offering.

At this moment, his body had no skin layer, only raw flesh interwoven with veins, a horrifying sight, yet his sacrifice continued!

The Emperor Sword flew up and once again descended towards his glabella.

As the sword light flashed, what was torn open this time... was Xu Qing's flesh and blood!

And with the sword qi augmented by Xu Qing's own immortal power, it swept across his entire body in an instant with even sharper momentum, clinging to his bones.

Forcibly separating bone from flesh!

Then his flesh was peeled off, flying up from his body and landing on his own skin in the northern corner of the altar before him!

It wasn't over. Xu Qing, stripped of skin and flesh and sitting cross-legged at the center of the altar, saw the Emperor Sword flash again. Amidst the roar of his own sword qi, all his bones and even his internal organs instantly separated!

All fell towards the northern corner of the altar.

The bones were on top of the flesh, and the internal organs were on top of the bones!

And at the center of the altar, what remained now... was only Xu Qing's soul!

His soul floated there, emitting a hint of madness.

“Sacrifice!”

As this soul sound arose, the Primordial Offering of Cursed Objects was fully activated!

The altar roared.

The surrounding void twisted and deformed, as if an invisible immense force was tearing at the boundary between reality and illusion.

Furthermore, countless black shadows transformed into various oddly shaped cursed object silhouettes, carrying an eerie aura and generating from the ominous wind.

As wailing and howling sounds echoed, their numbers were boundless.

The moment they appeared, like fiends sensing fresh blood, they pounced upon Xu Qing's soul.

In every dimension, in every concept, within every story, whether nothingness, space-time, or any parallel, all were locked onto.

Causing Xu Qing's soul, and everything within it, to be enveloped.

Maniacally gnawing and tearing.

And the painter, with a sinister grin after death, raised his corpse hand and drew wildly.

The stone lion roared!

“What are cursed objects? They emerged before gods. Above the planetary rings, the cursed realm is before the gods!”

The head bounced and sang loudly, its voice sharp like a dirge!

As for the outside, those divine projections formed within Shanghuang's gaze, at this moment, amidst Prince Ziqing's extremely solemn expression, also suddenly came from all directions.

To destroy everything.

At this crucial moment, as Xu Qing's soul endured unparalleled tearing, the Emperor Sword floating before him suddenly flashed, its sword qi astonishing the heavens, striking Xu Qing's soul!

The moment it descended, Xu Qing's soul was finally torn open by the sword qi!

Causing the power of the Primordial Offering, as if finding a vent, to directly surge into Xu Qing's soul!

Completely opening his soul!

And the moment it opened...

Endless black mist, astonishingly, surged out from within Xu Qing's soul.

Within that mist, numerous doors could be seen!

These doors were irregularly shaped, large and small, encircling each other to astonishingly form a long corridor!

And deep within that corridor... astonishingly, there was a massive chair!

At this moment, the instant the primordial kneeling objects and those divine projections approached the black mist... all the doors within this corridor suddenly trembled.

Then... all began to roar with unparalleled ferocity!

Thumping sounds shook the heavens and earth.

That was... the sound of banging on doors!

All the doors were trembling, as if unknown presences behind them had perceived everything outside, and at this moment, they were all going mad, exerting their full strength to batter the doors.

Intending to... break out!

The intense sounds were permeated with a terrifying sense of oppression, vaguely accompanied by resonant low roars that shook the mind.

All of this caused the cursed objects and divine projections that had surged in to collectively tremble, then expressions of unprecedented terror appeared on their faces as they abruptly retreated, about to leave.

But it was too late...

Those doors, though incredibly sturdy, seemed to withstand any roaring or battering from the beings within, and nothing was of any use.

But... not all of them!

Under this intense bombardment, the moment those cursed objects and divine projections were about to retreat, a wooden door located in the deepest part, extremely close to the chair, suddenly emitted a colossal sound surpassing all others.

Bang!!

Under this colossal sound, the roars from within the other doors astonishingly all paused.

Then... that wooden door in the depths, amidst all the preceding sounds, suddenly... opened a crack!

The moment this crack appeared, strands of long black hair, emanating a sense of decay, instantly flew out from within, accompanied by an overwhelming tide of greed and ferocity, wildly spreading outwards.

As if ravenous for countless ages, the moment they extended, those black hairs shot directly towards all the cursed objects and divine projections.

No matter how they struggled or resisted, it was all to no avail.

The black hairs instantly shot out, directly binding all the cursed objects and divine projections in an instant, then fiercely pulling...

All of them, pulled back!

And with extreme speed, pulled them through the crack and into the door!

The next instant, the wooden door that had opened a crack slammed shut.

The black mist also instantly rolled back, returning to the corridor and submerging everything.

And the Primordial Offering, at this moment, reversed!

Using the sacrifice of himself to nourish Xu Qing in return.

The next instant... Xu Qing's soul healed, and his separated internal organs, bones, flesh, and skin all returned.

Finally, as the altar dispersed, Xu Qing, standing there with a pale face, slowly raised his head and looked towards Prince Ziqing, who stood within Shanghuang's gaze.

Not a word was spoken.

Prince Ziqing also remained silent.

In this silence, only intermittent, scalp-tingling chewing sounds seemed to linger in the void, faint and intermittent.

After a while, Ziqing's eyes showed a strange gleam.

“He actually reached this point.”

“My brother, I have waited a long time for this day...”

“And now, you possess the ability... and you should know that the divine Shanghuang controls the supreme fate.”

“But do you know that the divine Shanghuang, His left eye sees the future, and His right eye sees the past?”

“Now, the Shanghuang in the sky only has His left eye left.”

“His right eye... is here.”

Ziqing pointed downwards.

With that single point, the earth beneath his feet roared, tearing open directly.

Simultaneously, the entire Sky Swallowing Domain also surged.

And it wasn't just this domain; even several nearby great domains trembled with it.

The next moment, in several domains, including the Sky Swallowing Domain, all the mountain ranges within them collapsed with a roar, as if an earth dragon had turned over, and a massive fissure appeared!

This fissure instantly pierced through several domains, its length terrifyingly immense!

Transforming into a world-shaking grand canyon!

Like an ancient scar!

Its center point was precisely the Imperial Palace of the Ziqing Empire!

Then, this grand canyon violently opened outwards!

Golden light instantly erupted from within outwards, surging sky-high!

At this moment, if one were to stand at the highest point to look at the Sky Swallowing Domain, one could clearly see...

This grand canyon piercing through several great domains was astonishingly a wide-open colossal eye!

This eye, astonishingly, was exactly identical to the incomplete face's eye in the sky!

This was... Shanghuang's right eye!

It was buried deep within the earth, and at this instant, it opened!

And its core pupil's location was precisely where Ziqing currently stood.

At this moment, Prince Ziqing was within the gaze, with Shanghuang's left eye above and Shanghuang's right eye below.

Both eyes were completely open, with Him as the center!

The moment the gazes converged, Ziqing raised his right hand.

In his hand, he held an object.

That was an ancient skull.

That was... His skull from back then!

It was taken by Him when the Empress became a god.

Now, He held the skull, lifting it high.

Amidst the intertwining gazes of Shanghuang, this skull emanated the aura of endless ages, affecting heaven and earth. It could be seen that, centered around Ziqing, all the surrounding environment began to undergo temporal changes, and countless figures passed from death to life consecutively.

The power of this skull astonishingly melted nothingness, space-time, and everything else.

Including Prince Ziqing himself.

Only his voice echoed.

“Time and space reversed, returning to ancient times.”

“My brother, I am in ancient times, waiting for your final battle!”
