Chapter 1275: The Fifth Secret Repository: Magus Repository

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

The fluctuations in the Mountains and Seas Region also calmed down because of the resealing of Jiuli Forbidden.

The ferocious beasts inside no longer wailed. The struggle from their souls and bloodlines gradually dissipated and their bestial nature replaced everything.

However, the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven cultivators who participated in the Grand Hunt couldn’t calm down. Different guesses surged in their minds.

Most of them learned of the source of the fluctuations in the Mountains and

Seas Region through different methods. Hence, they all avoided it, unwilling to get close to Jiuli.

Even though the mountain range Xu Qing was hiding in was some distance away from Jiuli Forbidden, there weren’t many passersby in these seven days.

In addition, he hid very well and the gray fog was completely absorbed by the purple crystal, so no one noticed him.

This caused Xu Qing to be completely immersed in refining Jiuli Magus Repository during these seven quiet days.

If he wanted to completely control Jiuli and make it a part of him, the only way was to refine the skulls into a magus repository.

However, this step wasn’t that simple.

The first thing he needed to do wasn’t to fuse the nine lanterns floating outside his body into his body one by one. Instead, he had to first build a secret repository foundation that could accommodate the lanterns in his sea of consciousness.

The foundation of this secret repository was especially important. On one hand, it had to be able to withstand the integration of Jiuli. On the other hand, it was also closely related to whether Xu Qing could truly fuse with Jiuli in the end.

Hence, after some thought, Xu Qing made a decision.

Flesh as the foundation, bones as the mountain!

During these seven days, he continuously spent his flesh, causing them to gather in his sea of consciousness and build the foundation of the secret repository.

This process required too much flesh. Under normal circumstances, even if Xu Qing used up all of his flesh, it wouldn’t be enough.

Hence, he thought of the white wind in the Green Sand Desert of the Moon Offering Region.

It was a terrifying wind that caused flesh and bones to grow disorderly. Back then, in the Green Sand Desert, anyone who was touched by the white wind would have their flesh deformed until they turned into a mountain of flesh and died.

He had studied this phenomenon and experimented on others. It was once one of the formulas for creating the curse-breaking pill.

At the same time, he knew that the flesh that grew did indeed belong to him.

Hence, after thinking about it, Xu Qing gritted his teeth and started swallowing the remaining white wind pills in his storage bag. His body immediately grew disorderly.

Seven to eight arms, dozens of legs, and many heads all shot out crazily, and his body became bloated and huge.

With the help of the flesh that grew, as Xu Qing consumed them, the foundation of the secret repository in his sea of consciousness gradually took shape.

During this period, he also swallowed a lot of the white wind pills. The disorderly growth of his body also gradually reached an exaggerated level and he turned into a mountain of flesh many times.

He felt a sense of weakness frequently.

Fortunately, with the recovery power of the purple crystal, he could barely persist.

Finally, he formed a land of flesh that was 100,000 feet in size.

This was his limit.

This ioo,ooo-foot-long flesh belonged to him. Using it as the foundation of the secret repository, it naturally came from the same source as him.

In addition, on this ioo,ooo-foot-long land of flesh, Xu Qing’s bones were also continuously piling up, forming nine bone mountains.

These nine bones all looked like skulls.

They were created by Xu Qing according to the layout and appearance of the core of Jiuli below 10,000 feet.

The land was his flesh, and the mountain of bones was his bones.

The moment it was formed, Xu Qing opened his eyes under the mountain range.

His face was pale and his body was weak. The spirit in his eyes was also much dimmer. The consumption was too great.

However, his eyes still contained light.

“I’ve formed the foundation with my flesh and bones. Next, it’s time to fuse them!”

Xu Qing lifted his head and looked at the nine lanterns floating in the surroundings. He then lifted his right hand and pointed at one of them. The instant he pointed, the lantern shook and headed straight for Xu Qing.

The moment it came into contact with his finger, the lantern quickly fused into it and disappeared in front of Xu Qing. When it appeared… it was in his sea of consciousness. On the 100,000 feet of flesh, it fell toward the mountain of bones that was designated to it.

In the blink of an eye, the lantern collided with the mountain of bones. The gray fog inside erupted and fused into the mountain of bones along with the lantern.

The moment it completely fused, the skull mountain quaked. Under the cover of the gray fog, flesh and blood appeared. Two lumps of black fire also rose from the originally empty eye sockets.

After that, a bull-like roar rang out from the skull.

Immediately after, a ferocious beast that looked like a bull but had a golden body, golden armor, and a dragon head appeared. It roared at the sky and let out low voices that was like a god’s murmur.

“Magus Life Qiuniu j>!”

It emitted immense aura and Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness fluctuated endlessly.

Its connection with Xu Qing also became one at this moment.

This made Xu Qing immediately realize that this beast named Qiuniu was one of the magus forms of Jiuli back then.

“Nine skulls, nine different magus forms!”

Seeing that it was effective, Xu Qing’s mind stirred. As he performed a series of hand seals, he fused the second lantern into his repository. Very soon, a second ferocious beast appeared on another mountain of skulls.

It was a ferocious beast with the body of a dhole and the head of a dragon, exuding a ferocious and cruel aura all over, showing a penchant for killing and fighting, giving off a palpable sense of death.

Especially with its all-black body and overwhelming murderous intent, it engulfed Xu Qing’s mind like a peerless weapon of slaughter descending into the world!

Back then, when Xu Qing felt Ji Dongzi’s killing intent was already astonishing.

However, compared to this ferocious beast, the difference was too great.

At that moment, as killing intent churned, a deep roar echoed.

“Magus Life Yazi®!”

“Such killing intent…” Xu Qing’s heart trembled as he felt a sense of intimidation.

A long time later, he calmed the fluctuations in his sea of consciousness and raised his right hand, pointing at three lanterns.

As the three lanterns fused into him, they landed on the third bone mountain, the fourth bone mountain, and the fifth bone mountain.

An unprecedented storm rose in his sea of consciousness that had just calmed down.

The moment the lanterns fused into the bone mountains, three ferocious beasts of different shapes and sizes appeared in unison. Their tyrannical auras erupted like an avalanche.

Xu Qing’s body trembled violently and he almost couldn’t withstand it. He had no choice but to use the purple crystal to heal himself. He then released his soul threads and directly manifested the third god form before he could persevere.

He then looked at the three ferocious beasts in his sea of consciousness.

One figure appeared blurry at first glance, making it difficult to discern specifics, but he could sense its speed surpassing imagination. Only by utilizing a series of residual images formed during multiple teleportations could he clearly see its lizard-like wings.

A whistling wind accompanied it, emitting sharp sounds.

“Magus Life Chaofeng®!”

As for the fourth beast, resembling a dragon, it was relatively smaller in size compared to the other ferocious beasts. When it appeared, it floated there quietly. However, the moment Xu Qing’s consciousness fell upon this beast, the small dragon suddenly raised its head, opened its mouth, and emitted a roar as mighty as the creation of heaven and earth.

“Magus Life Pulao®!”

As soon as this roar rang out, Xu Qing’s body rumbled. The third god form also became unstable and was almost split open. He quickly formed the fourth god form to endure it.

As for the fifth ferocious beast, it was even more astonishing!

Shaped like a lion, it exuded an aura of smoke and fire, floating atop the fifth skull mountain. It emitted a vast majesty, as if it could suppress everything, be it the heavens or the earth!

Surrounded by the spiraling incense, it was like a true god.

A deep roar echoed in all directions.

“Magus Life Suanni®!”

Xu Qing sensed these five ferocious beasts and countless lightning bolts seemed to explode in his mind. The waves in his heart rose even more.

Too strong!

Although he still didn’t know their specific abilities, any one of them was even more terrifying than the ghost carriage Xu Qing had seen before from their auras.

After a long time, Xu Qing’s eyes revealed anticipation. He calmed his sea of consciousness and waited for all the fluctuations to dissipate before pointing at the other lanterns.

Immediately, ghostly flames appeared on the sixth, seventh, and eighth skull mountains one after another, transforming into different beasts.

One beast resembled a dragon-headed turtle body, exuding an earth-shaking dominance. Its body was astonishingly large, and the moment it appeared, Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness was filled significantly.

“Magus Life BaxiaQ!”

Another beast had a tiger-like body with enormous fangs. As it manifested, a sense of sealing spread from its body, affecting Xu Qing’s mind and spreading throughout his entire body, extending into the outside world.

This caused this mountain range to directly feel blurry as it was put in a sealed state.

In the seal, murmurs echoed.

“Magus Life Bi’an Q!”

The eighth beast also had a dragon-like appearance but was slender and exuded an elegant aura. It emitted countless blue light spots as it flew, nourishing Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness. It even brought a refreshing sensation to his soul, accompanied by a sense of heaviness, as if adorning his soul with an unparalleled armor.

This was an enhancement to the soul. It silently descended.

A strange glint appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes. He could sense this enhancement very clearly. The effect… was extremely astonishing.

“It’s like the blessing of a god!”

Just as Xu Qing came to a realization, the beast’s voice echoed softly.

“Magus Life Fuxi0!”

Immediately after, it was the last lantern!

Under Xu Qing’s integration, this lantern appeared on the ninth skull mountain. With the trembling of this mountain and the flickering of ghostly flames within the skull, above it, a beast with the head of a dragon, the body of a lion, and the tail of a fish suddenly appeared.

Its emergence didn’t bring about any earth-shattering aura or eerie changes, but the moment its gaze met Xu Qing’s consciousness, his body visibly trembled.

He felt the injuries he had been steadily recovering from suddenly fully healed, not only his physical body but also his soul threads, as if both were blessed.

What felt most peculiar was that the fluctuations in his sea of consciousness caused by integrating with Jiuli suddenly returned to normal in an instant under the gaze of this beast.

It was as if all negative states dissipated under the creature’s gaze.

“Magus Life Chiwen©!”

The nine heads of Jiuli fused with Xu Qing’s flesh. With Xu Qing’s bones as a carrier, all the magus life forms appeared!

At the next instant, the land of the flesh suddenly caved in. Booming sounds and the roars of the nine beasts gathered together, as though they had ignited a vast furnace.

Boom!

The fifth secret repository was formed!

Magus repository!

The aura of the Perfected Spirit Repository rose violently from Xu Qing’s body!
