Chapter 1067 Revival and Rise
As Xu Qing and the captain"s words echoed, they walked into the reflection of the lake on the surface of the mirror. They stood outside the highest temple, overlooking everything like G.o.ds.
The mountain of the Moon Rebel Hall started quaking.
The seals imposed by the first hall master and fifth hall master were directly erased by Xu Qing and the captain.
They were the true Lords of Moon Rebel.
Under Xu Qing and the captain"s highest authority, the authority of all deputy hall masters could be easily suppressed.
At that moment, the mountain in the mirror rumbled and the temples inside shone one after another. In the blink of an eye, the light of 100,000 temples gave off resplendent light.
It was like 100,000 stars had appeared in the sky.
The aura was so imposing that it seemed to shake everything.
Waves of astonishing aura rose from the 100,000 temples, forming terrifying energy that filled the world inside the mirror before affecting the outside world as well.
The world formed by the Crimson G.o.ddess" mortal skin started shaking. It couldn"t continue shrinking and devouring!
This was the might of the Moon Rebel Hall"s foundation.
Xu Qing and the captain"s words echoed not only in this world enclosed by the Crimson G.o.ddess" mortal skin but also in the sea of blood outside and the sky, echoing in the Moon Worship Region.
All statues referred to the cultivators of the Moon Rebel Hall.
Returning to their positions meant returning to the Moon Rebel Hall.
In the blink of an eye, the minds of the Rebel Army cultivators in the Bitter Life Mountain Range seemed to explode, and their bodies uncontrollably turned blurry and illusory.
It was as though a supreme force had descended on every Moon Rebel cultivator and transformed into a guide that ignored the location and cultivation base of the cultivator, summoning them back.
One cultivator after another"s bodies disappeared. When they reappeared, they were already in the Moon Rebel Hall and in their respective temples. They fused into the statues and opened their eyes, revealing their spirit.
Among them was the fourth hall master of the Moon Rebel Hall. He had also been teleported back and he appeared in the temple of the deputy hall master in the air.
It was the same everywhere.
In the eastern part of the Moon Worship Region, the dying Duanmu Zang suddenly opened his eyes with a look of disbelief as he heard those words.
His body blurred and disappeared in the blink of an eye. When he reappeared, he had returned to the Moon Rebel Hall.
For cultivators like Duanmu Zang, who were scattered all over the great region, no matter where they hid or what kind of injuries they suffered, as long as they didn"t die, their bodies were teleported away.
The third hall master and his hundreds of thousands of subordinates who were trapped by the Red Moon cultivators in the northern part of the Moon Worship Region were greatly shaken.
They didn"t know what had happened but they all heard a dignified voice in their minds.
Under this voice, the third hall master and his subordinates disappeared.
When they reappeared, they were all in their respective temples in the Moon Rebel Hall.
All of this took a long time to describe but in reality, it happened in an instant. In the blink of an eye, the temples on the mountain reflected in the mirror opened their gates.
Tens of thousands of statues walked down their respective altars, pushed open the temple"s gate, and walked out.
These statues had different appearances and each of them had an imposing aura, but they all had different emotions running in their hearts.
Some were shocked, some were at a loss, some were frightened, and some were excited.
It was the same for the temples in the sky.
The temple of the fourth hall master opened and the mighty statue carried resplendent light as it walked out of the hall. The temple of the third hall master beside it also opened at this moment. A furious-looking statue that was like a guardian warrior stepped out of the temple, emitting a terrifying pressure.
However, compared to the fourth hall master, the shock on the third hall master"s face was intense.
Even the traitorous first hall master, fifth hall master, and some other cultivators who chose to betray the Moon Rebel Hall couldn"t escape and were forcefully pulled into the Moon Rebel Hall.
As the temples opened their gates, these traitorous deputy hall masters rushed out. Their expressions changed and they were shocked. All of this was too unexpected and sudden for them.
Their appearance immediately attracted the anger and killing intent of the others.
However, at that moment, no one took action. This was because compared to the betrayal of the two deputy hall masters, what affected the minds of all the Moon Rebel cultivators was the highest hall in the sky!
Hence, everyone instinctively lifted their heads and looked at the sky.
The gate of the highest temple had already opened. Endless light spread out from within, illuminating the surroundings as though it was the sun.
And within that sun, two figures stood tall, as if supporting the heavens and the earth, inspiring a sense of reverence in the hearts of those who beheld them.
Their gazes landed and swept across all the statues of the Moon Rebel cultivators. The minds of all the cultivators present buzzed and they instinctively lowered their heads, greeting with respect.
"Greetings, Masters of Moon Rebel!"
The captain lifted his head proudly.
"G.o.ds aren"t eternal; hope is what lasts forever!"
"Today, the Red Moon has invaded us, and it is time for the rise of our Moon Rebel"s mission!"
The captain"s voice echoed as he raised his right hand and waved it fiercely. Immediately, the mountain of the Moon Rebel Hall rumbled and rapidly swelled. It was the same for the Bitter Life Mountain Range where the Moon Rebel Hall had descended.
As the mirror-like mountain enlarged, the mirror also continued to expand. The sky formed by it instantly collided with the enveloping presence of Crimson G.o.ddess" mortal skin.
The instant they collided, there was fierce resistance from both sides.
It sounded like two worlds were colliding.
The surroundings trembled and the void collapsed.
The Crimson G.o.ddess" mortal skin was her body before she became a G.o.d. It contained obsession and was extraordinarily bizarre.
As for the Moon Rebel Hall, it was the strongest supreme treasure of the ruler. It was also a regional artifact and contained the will of the ruler before he died, so its might was naturally peerless.
The ripples caused by their contact centered on this place and spread throughout the entire large region like a storm, causing the sky to surge and the ground to quake.
The expressions of all the Red Moon cultivators changed, and the high priest looked much gloomier. He wanted to strengthen the Crimson G.o.ddess" mortal skin but he was unable to do so.
Only the divine son could truly control this item and unseal it to reveal its final form.
As a high priest, he could rely on his faith and some special methods to influence this mortal skin. However, he could only release it simply and wasn"t qualified to undo the seal.
Originally, he didn"t need to undo the seal and display the mortal skin"s final state to complete his plan.
However, he never expected that before the heir appeared, the Lord of Moon Rebel would appear!
This was beyond his expectations.
Hence, the Crimson G.o.ddess" mortal skin was continuously propped up. As the range grew larger and larger, it rolled back and rapidly retracted, revealing the Bitter Life Mountain Range that had been devoured by more than half!
All living beings in the Bitter Life Mountain Range saw the light of day again.
As for the Moon Rebel Mirror, it was no longer obstructed by the Crimson G.o.ddess" mortal skin, so it soared and directly covered a vast expanse of the sky for hundreds of thousands of feet, blocking out the crimson sky and shrouding the blood sea.
The surface of the mirror rippled and the mountain of the Moon Rebel Hall shone.
The Red Moon cultivators in the area looked at all of this and their hearts trembled. As for the high priest, killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"Exterminate all the Moon Rebel cultivators!"
As the voice rang out, all the Red Moon cultivators on the surrounding sea of blood erupted with their cultivation and killing intent at the same time, heading straight for the mirror in the sky.
Looking at the situation, even though the Crimson G.o.ddess" mortal skin was forced back, the difference in strength between the two was extremely great.
At that moment, outside the gate of the highest hall of the Moon Rebel Hall, Xu Qing, who was standing beside the captain, looked calm and wasn"t fl.u.s.tered. He closed his eyes and sensed the information that appeared in his mind after he became the master of the Moon Rebel Hall.
A breath later, Xu Qing opened his eyes and spoke calmly.
"In the name of the Moon Rebel, the authority of the first hall master and the fifth hall master shall be stripped."
"Traitors shall be punished."
"All of you are to be sealed in the mirror lake."
As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, the bodies of the first and fifth hall masters trembled. Their statues quickly dimmed and their auras instantly weakened.
It was as though everything was directly weakened by an invisible force.
It was as though Xu Qing"s words determined everything.
These two Nihility deputy hall masters were shocked and furious. Amidst the shock, there was also unwillingness. Hence, they roared and rushed out separately, heading straight for Xu Qing and the captain. They wanted to cooperate with the outside world to kill Xu Qing.
However, the instant they rushed out, their bodies rapidly froze and they turned into two ice sculptures in the flash of an eye. Ripples appeared in the air under their feet and swallowed them, disappearing.
The other cultivators who had betrayed the Moon Rebel also turned into ice sculptures and sank into the mirror lake.
Witnessing all of this, the Moon Rebel Hall cultivators all felt reverence and lowered their heads.
Xu Qing"s gaze swept over and his voice continued to echo.
"In the name of the Moon Rebel, suppress all injuries, dispel all curses, extend life, and transform the death calamity!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the peak of the Moon Rebel Hall swayed again. Just like the nourishment he and the captain had received previously, the power that had acc.u.mulated for countless years in the Moon Rebel Hall erupted in an instant, surging into the bodies of all Moon Rebel Hall cultivators.
All the injuries of the hundreds of thousands of Moon Rebel cultivators were suppressed. All the curses that erupted were forcefully subdued as well.
"Release the seal of Moon Rebel, unleash the ancient power. Anyone who dies will be reborn in the Moon Rebel Hall, immortal and indestructible!"
Xu Qing"s eyes gleamed. As these words echoed, it caused the entire Moon Rebel Hall to rumble. All the statues began to exude divine brilliance, empowered by the Moon Rebel Hall!
The statues were like avatars or armor. In essence, each of them was an extension of the Moon Rebel Hall and contained the terrifying power of the Moon Rebel Hall.
At that moment, after Xu Qing unsealed the Moon Rebel Seal and released this power, the statues here instantly erupted with terrifying combat strength, their auras shook the wind and clouds.
"Kill!"
Xu Qing let out a deep shout. All of these sculptures emitted an ancient aura, bringing with them the intent of rebelling against the moon and hatred. All of them rushed out and stepped into the mirror, attacking the approaching Red Moon cultivators.
The battle erupted.
As for the artifact spirit formed by the Moon Rebel Hall, it took a step forward and headed straight for the high priest.
In an instant, an astonishing ma.s.sacre erupted from both sides with all kinds of spells thrown everywhere.
Xu Qing looked at the battlefield in the outside world, speaking slowly.
"Pardon those who failed the trial in this era!"
As soon as he finished speaking, ripples emerged in front of him. Many frozen sculptures of various races appeared, including the captain"s true body.
Under Xu Qing"s pardon, these ice sculptures instantly shattered, and a terrifying presence burst forth from within.
