Chapter 969 The Old Man in the Sun (1)
At this moment, in the sky above the Sacrificial Yin River, a huge ball burned and a terrifying pressure continued to spread. From within it, a cracking sound, akin to grinding teeth, sent shivers down the spine.
Especially its color, at that moment, turned an intense shade of crimson, with some parts on the surface even melting due to the terrifying temperature, dripping droplets of molten iron.
The unstable fluctuations from the huge fireball spread crazily, causing everyone who saw it to feel fear.
The earth was affected, experiencing violent tremors, and countless red sand and gravel were lifted into the air, drawn by the burning ancient sun. The river’s surface was the same, as strands of river water flowed in reverse, creating a boundless sea of crimson.
This scene instantly caused everyone’s minds to rumble like countless lightning bolts had exploded in their minds.
“What’s going on!”
“Damn it, I knew it!”
“Every time Chen Erniu makes a move, nothing good happens. He’s just feeling uncomfortable if he doesn’t court death. How hateful that I actually believed his nonsense again!!”
Wu Jianwu and Ning Yan’s faces turned pale. A sense of life-and-death crisis suddenly erupted in their minds and they trembled intensely. Ning Yan’s reaction was the fastest. He screamed and turned to run frantically.
As he ran, he also retracted his vine as fast as possible.
Wu Jianwu’s cultivation wasn’t high enough and he was a little slower. However, he grabbed the vine that Ning Yan dragged on the ground and borrowed the momentum to escape.
Li Youfei’s reaction was also extremely fast. He was extremely shocked and his scalp felt numb. This was the first time he was doing anything with Xu Qing, so he wasn’t mentally prepared. Looking at the sun that was emitting a terrifying pressure and was about to self-destruct, his mind was buzzing and he instinctively fled rapidly.
The three of them were very fast and wanted to teleport. However, not only were there the captain’s restrictions in this range, but there was also the envelopment of the ancient sun. The space was chaotic and teleportation couldn’t be carried out.
Although the parrot could do it… its feathers hadn’t grown out yet.
“It’s over, it’s over. I’m going to die. I hate it!” The parrot was filled with grief and indignation. It bit Ning Yan’s vine and endless regret rose in its heart.
“The biggest mistake in my life was to go to the Bitter Life Mountain Range…”
Although the three of them reacted quickly, they couldn’t escape too far in a short period of time.
Xu Qing took a look and sighed. He had actually expected this. He knew that every time his captain did something, it would definitely be like this. At that moment, he didn’t escape in the direction of Ning Yan and the others. Instead, he turned and headed straight for the Sacrificial Yin.
Compared to the empty outside world, the effect would clearly be better with the help of the power of the Sacrificial Yin River.
However, he also reminded Ning Yan and the others in the distance.
“Enter the Sacrificial Yin River!”
When Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu heard this, they instantly changed directions. Li Youfei was stunned for a moment. When he thought of his uniqueness, he gritted his teeth and rushed over as well.
As for the captain, he was completely dumbfounded as he looked at the sun in the sky.
Sensing the terrifying fluctuations from the sun, the captain spoke blankly as he retreated with Xu Qing.
“No, I’ve already calculated it. There shouldn’t have been any mistakes. It’s really a small matter…”
Xu Qing stepped onto the Sacrificial Yin River and glanced at the captain.
“You call this a small matter?”
“It’s really a small matter. I’m just dredging out something to light.”
The captain’s mind was in a mess. This time, he really didn’t expect this. From what he knew, this was indeed a small matter and he had prepared for this for a long time.
“What’s the big deal about dredging out the sun? It’s not like we’re catching a god. Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be like this.”
The captain felt aggrieved and depressed. His heart ached even more. He felt that there was a problem with this ancient sun and it didn’t match his plan. He couldn’t take it away.
“Little Qing, I want to go over and take a look. Maybe I can even repair it…”
As soon as the captain finished speaking, the aura of the ancient sun erupted again in the air, and the fluctuations became even more terrifying.
The surrounding ground no longer had sand and gravel rising into the air. Instead, it was burning and the mountain rocks instantly melted.
The nearby river water also boiled. The aura of self-destruction was extremely dense at this moment.
The might of such a huge sun’s self-destruction was indescribable. However, one thing was certain. All existences in this area would instantly turn to ashes.
The captain instantly put away the thought of saving the sun. Xu Qing also gasped. The feeling of life-and-death crisis rose and churned in his mind. He sped up and drilled into the river.
However, at this moment, the ancient sun floating in the air suddenly sank.
Immediately, the color of the sky changed and heat waves erupted. The pressure inside was extremely intense.
What was even more terrifying was that the ancient sun didn’t just sink a little. It charged toward Xu Qing and the captain.
In Xu Qing’s eyes, the already huge sun became even larger as it got closer. The moment the sun got close, the Sacrificial Yin River around him and the captain actually froze.
They weren’t allowed to enter!
Xu Qing and the captain’s entry was forcefully interrupted.
Xu Qing’s expression changed drastically and he was about to change directions. However, at the next instant, the pressure bound him. In the blink of an eye, Xu Qing shockingly discovered that he couldn’t move at all.
He wasn’t the only one. The river was like this, and so was the ground. Ning Yan and the other two lost their mobility and stood there completely frozen.
The captain wailed.
“What is this? Does this thing have intelligence?”
Xu Qing’s scalp went numb and the horror in everyone’s hearts transformed into a storm of death. Under the monstrous eruption, the ancient sun rapidly approached but it grew smaller and smaller.
