His speed was astonis.h.i.+ng. In an instant, he rushed into the glow of the red candle and rushed forward rapidly.

From afar, he looked like a shooting star piercing through the void.

As he got closer, his body rapidly turned red. Endless light and heat a.s.saulted his face.

In the blink of an eye, it enveloped Xu Qing’s entire body.

There were also countless shadows rus.h.i.+ng over from all directions. At the same time, the stars continued to collapse and explode, wanting to stop him.

It was as though everything was stopping Xu Qing from approaching.

This didn’t make sense!

This was because according to the a.s.similation of this place, since Xu Qing had made such a choice, the red candle shouldn’t have stopped him. After all, he was like a moth darting into the fire.

It could just let him be.

However, not only did this obstruction appear, but as Xu Qing sped up, it also intensified. More stars self-destructed and even the flames of the red candle swayed intensely.

Xu Qing’s eyes flashed and he didn’t hesitate at all. He immediately transmitted his divine sense. At the next instant, Little Shadow fused with him. His eyes were pitch-black and everything in front of him collapsed, directly turning into paintings.

This was to avoid the self-destruction and collapse of the stars.

As for the shadows that were originally invisible, a large number of them appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes. Xu Qing could sense anxiety and madness from them.

Their obstructions came in waves.

Facing these, Xu Qing’s speed became even faster. He circulated the cultivation base in his body and all his divine authorities erupted. The power of his authorities shone and the sun rose in his body. No matter how red his body had become or how his soul was burning, he still charged forward ruthlessly.

Since you don’t want me to come over, I’ll go over!

In an instant, as the countless shadows in the surroundings dissipated and the red candle flickered, Xu Qing’s figure appeared 10,000 feet away from the red candle!

At such a close distance, Xu Qing’s body was still fine but his soul couldn’t withstand it anymore. Countless flames flowed through the cracks hidden in his body and seeped into his body, gathering in his sea of consciousness and burning his soul.

The a.s.similation and melting caused by it spread on a large scale.

At this critical moment, Xu Qing’s eyes were filled with madness. His soul swayed and directly transformed into tens of millions of soul threads that spun in his sea of consciousness, forming a vortex storm to resist the candle flames that seeped in from the outside world.

Using this method, he charged forward again.

He reached 5000 feet.

Large areas of his soul threads were destroyed and burned into ashes. Some of them even disappeared and became the shadows of this world.

However, Xu Qing’s speed was still erupting.

Amidst the eruption, 3000 feet, 2000 feet… When more than ninety percent of Xu Qing’s soul threads were burned and disappeared, leaving only a very small portion, Xu Qing’s body finally crossed the distance.

He appeared above the red candle fire.

Over there, he closed his eyes and sank toward the candlelight below!

He wanted to use his body to extinguish this fire!

The candle flame also fluctuated intensely at this moment, as if it didn’t expect that Xu Qing’s choice would be to get close to it.

This act of taking the initiative to walk into death and despair wasn’t within its understanding.

At the next instant, the flames of the red candle burned intensely and crazily, causing Xu Qing’s falling body to pause. At the same time, flames that were many times more intense than before swept in all directions, enveloping Xu Qing’s entire body.

His body was still alright but the fire that surged into Xu Qing’s body continued to gather in his sea of consciousness and permeate the nihility land.

The number of his variant immortal soul threads was rapidly decreasing and they were about to be completely burned.

However, at that moment, Xu Qing suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the red candle below.

“I don’t know what your relations.h.i.+p with the mask is, but I know that you have consciousness, so I deliberately said a.s.similation so that you wouldn’t stop me from approaching.”

“Although I still haven’t lied to you…”

Xu Qing’s eyes flashed.

“But do you think I have no choice but to make a wish?”

Xu Qing had gained a lot from entering the World Source Secret Realm.

Firstly, he saw the map of the 36 star rings!

This map was vast and broadened his vision.

Secondly, he found the reason why white dust appeared in Xue Chenzi’s fate threads.

That strange wish mask!

For an unknown reason, the red candle emitted malice and didn’t allow him to leave. However, making a wish still wasn’t Xu Qing’s first choice.

This was because… Xu Qing had a guess that had lingered in his mind for a long time.

Everything had been laid out in the open.

With the situation he had faced previously, no matter how he a.n.a.lyzed it, the only way to leave was to make a wish.

This was very likely a choice left for him by the red candle!

Since that was the case, Xu Qing wouldn’t make a rash decision.

Before he studied the mask, he didn’t want to use it.

After all, this object was bizarre, and according to Xu Qing’s understanding, in this world, nothing came without effort, especially concerning wishes, which surely demanded a price.

It was obvious that the price would be different according to the magnitude of the wish.

And since the mask had a certain level of intelligence and wasn’t an inanimate object, it was possible for it to be cunning and deceitful.

All of these, including the price, were unknown.

The price of making a wish might be one’s lifespan, calamity, or the people and things one cared about the most. It might even be one’s memories and soul.

Anything was possible.

Hence, he had to be clear about the price he had to pay.

Otherwise, once he made a wish, the consequences would be too great.

Only by knowing the price could it be used rationally.

This was also the reason why Xu Qing kept it and didn’t say his wish.

Therefore, if he wanted to leave this place without following the set route of making a wish, there was only one way to break through the situation.

That was to rush toward the source of danger, the location of the red candle! He wanted to use his body to extinguish it!

Searching for life in the path of death.

However, to do this, the first thing he had to do was to get close.

Hence, Xu Qing said the word a.s.similation, trying to get the conscious red candle to let him pa.s.s.

Other than that, there was another reason for his choice.

He believed in the strength of his body!

In the star map of the 36 star rings, Desolate, which was located in the ninth star ring, could attract the four terrifying marks in the east, west, south, and north. This point further confirmed the terror of the fragmented-face.

In that case, this body formed from Its flesh and blood would definitely be able to withstand the burning of the candle flame.

The only flaw was his soul!

His soul couldn’t withstand the candle flame.

Regarding this, Xu Qing had already made a choice!

“Then let’s see if you’ll burn my soul first or my body will extinguish you first!” As he spoke, under the intense burning of the candle flames that seeped into his sea of consciousness, Xu Qing didn’t hesitate at all. His eyes were filled with determination as he activated all the hundred faint traces of divine authorities in his nihility land.

These traces of divine authority came from the flesh and blood of the fragmented-face. Xu Qing hadn’t comprehended them completely yet.

They increased Xu Qing’s upper limit but also restrained Xu Qing’s breakthrough. Hence, burning them was a matter of weighing the pros and cons to a certain extent.

However, Xu Qing’s judgment was both right and wrong!

The nearly hundred faint traces of divine authorities could indeed be burned, forming a resistance to the candle flames. However, they weren’t true divine authorities. They were just illusory marks that were similar to a recorded scene.

No matter how they burned, the marks themselves couldn’t be erased. At most, some impurities would be burned out.

As such, under the rumbling of the candle flames, the effect was lower than Xu Qing’s expectations.

Xu Qing made up his mind. He still had another layer of preparations!

“Luck divine authority!”

Xu Qing didn’t hesitate at all. He immediately took out his luck divine authority and sent it into the candle.

At the next instant, the divine authority of luck instantly burned in the candlelight, erupting with a large amount of divine might. While resisting the candlelight, it also indirectly protected Xu Qing’s soul.

This method was crazy!

Burning a divine authority was a rare occurrence since ancient times. On one hand, G.o.ds couldn’t bear to part with Their authorities. On the other hand, fire that could burn divine authorities was even more precious and needed a fortuitous opportunity to encounter it.

At that moment, with the help of the divine authority of luck, Xu Qing obtained more time. His body rumbled and he was already sitting on the candle flame.

The candlelight caved in and swayed even more intensely. It wanted to burn the body but it was unable to do so. It could only allow the red body to sink continuously.

However, the resistance of the red candle didn’t decrease. More and more flames seeped into Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness.

These flames filled Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness, burning violently.

Under this continuous burning, most of the divine authority of luck dissipated, leaving only a trace.

This trace of golden light actually couldn’t be completely burned.

After noticing this scene, Xu Qing’s heart stirred. He didn’t have time to think too much and immediately activated the divine authority of misfortune. It surrounded his body and resisted the candlelight.

A rumbling sound echoed in his sea of consciousness. More flames fused into it and burned even more, causing the divine authority of misfortune to rapidly dissipate. Finally, there was only a trace left!

After a moment of hesitation, the next divine authority Xu Qing took out was the Purple Moon!

The Purple Moon divine authority surrounded Xu Qing and resisted the candlelight intensely.

As for Xu Qing’s body, it was completely submerged in the flames of the red candle. It kept pressing down on the candlewick below!

The flames swayed even more intensely, as though they were making their final struggle. What was reflected in Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness was that a large amount of his Purple Moon divine authority had dissipated.

In the end, just like the first two divine authorities, there was only one golden strand left!

The instant Xu Qing gritted his teeth and was about to take out the divine authority of sound, a strange scene that exceeded his expectations and also had the greatest impact on the red candle suddenly appeared!

Luck, misfortune, Purple Moon…

These three divine authorities that were burned into golden strands actually sucked at each other and entangled together at this instant.

The three golden threads intertwined. Although they weren’t fused, as they intertwined, the golden light they emitted became even more resplendent. This caused the candle flames to pause for a moment.

An astonis.h.i.+ng aura spread out from the interweaving of the strands of the three divine authorities.

This aura seemed to surpa.s.s s.p.a.cetime and hold control over all living beings, but it seemed to be incomplete.

However, even though it was incomplete, the aura it emitted was still incredibly terrifying, surpa.s.sing all the divine authorities Xu Qing had seen in his life.

As for the details, before Xu Qing could extend his perception, the aura disappeared in the blink of an eye.

This was because they were only intertwined under a freak combination of factors and couldn’t fuse together.

At that moment, after a short period of entanglement, due to the lack of integrity, there were signs of them separating…

Xu Qing’s heart trembled. He immediately sent the three strands of intertwined divine authority into the candle flames in his sea of consciousness and made them endure the burning flames in place of his soul.

The flames instantly soared. Amidst the anxiety of being extinguished, the red candle completely erupted and burned crazily. As the candle reduced in size, the flames that fused into Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness also soared.

Under their burning, the three strands of divine authorities that originally wouldn’t fuse and were only intertwined for an instant… actually showed signs of fusing..
