Chapter 966 Taking the Sun From the Ancient River of Sacrificial Yin (2)
“Dad, I thought I’d never see you again.”
But before it could lament its own experience, its father shook its head, tossing it aside with a low shout.
“Hold the rope in your mouth and pull it!”
The parrot was stunned and felt grief and indignation in its heart. It had a feeling that the human world wasn’t worth it. However, since its father had spoken, it didn’t dare to disobey. At that moment, it could only exert force like Ning Yan who had nothing to live for.
Seeing this, although Xu Qing was filled with doubts, he still walked to the captain’s side and grabbed the vine, pulling it with all his might.
Li Youfei also quickly came to help. At the same time, he smiled at Wu Jianwu and glanced at Ning Yan. After that, he looked at the captain and immediately analyzed who had the highest status among the three.
With their addition, the pulling force also soared. The river instantly churned intensely. Amidst the rumbling sounds, a huge ring appeared on the distant river.
“Senior Brother, what is this?”
Xu Qing’s gaze froze.
When the captain heard this, although he was panting, he couldn’t help but feel smug.
“Little Qing, you came late but it’s fine. You made it in time.”
“Do you see the door frame behind us? Haha, guess what that is?”
Xu Qing shook his head with a puzzled expression.
Seeing that Xu Qing was showing such a rare expression, the captain laughed.
“That’s the sun!”
“There were once nine man-made suns in the Moon Worship Region and three of them died. You know about this, right? That door frame is one of the fallen suns!”
“And what we’re going to catch next is also one of the three suns that fell.”
“This is the small thing I came here to do.”
“In spring, I planted the seeds, and now in autumn, I will reap three suns!”
The captain was proud, having found the three suns that fell in ancient times in his previous life, and even repaired them, eventually throwing them into the Sacrificial Yin River to hide them.
Xu Qing’s heart fluctuated. He turned his head and glanced at the huge door. He never expected that this thing was actually an artificial sun.
“It’s all thanks to Ning Yan. Haha, I didn’t misjudge back then. This kid’s bloodline is extraordinary. After fusing with the vine and with my assistance, it allowed the vine to withstand the erosion of the Sacrificial Yin River.”
As the captain spoke, he lovingly shook the vine in his hand. When Ning Yan, who was at the back, heard this, his expression was filled with grief and indignation. The thing he regretted the most was going to Fenghai County.
If he hadn’t gone to Fenghai County, he wouldn’t have known Chen Erniu. If he didn’t know Chen Erniu, he wouldn’t have suffered the subsequent tragedy. Especially at this moment, his heart kept trembling, afraid that Xu Qing and the others wouldn’t be able to hold it. If that happened, he would be instantly pulled into the river.
Despite that, following Chen Erniu and working with him, he had enjoyed many good things along the way. Now his cultivation was about to break through and enter the Nascent Soul realm…
“Put in more strength!” After the captain told Xu Qing about his little incident, he roared and everyone exerted strength at the same time.
The sound of the river roared, and the massive object within it became increasingly visible, approaching the bank steadily.
This object was too large and was over 30,000 feet tall, forming a huge sense of oppression. As it got closer, Xu Qing gradually saw the details of this item.
This was a massive ring, stained with mud and the red river water, but one could still discern its base color was white. What was most bizarre was the presence of humanoid figures within this gigantic ring.
Numerous humanoid sculptures were upside down inside, with their feet standing on the inner ring, holding hands in ‘大’ posture, creating an inner circle. From a distance, they appeared like the intricate pattern within this massive ring-like object.
However, it wasn’t complete. Xu Qing saw that there was a human-shaped statue missing in the inner circle and there was a gap.
“Little Dumpling, come out and pull your father!”
Seeing that he was about to succeed, the captain roared excitedly and took out the artificial sun of the Lone Sun Race.
Eventually, as the river water surged and rushed to the shore, the massive ring became increasingly clear within the river, getting closer and closer. After an hour, it was completely pulled to the surface.
With a loud crash as it reached the shore, Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu both slumped down, utterly exhausted. Only the captain, despite his fatigue, quickly rushed over, inspecting the object with a fervent expression, touching it from different angles.
“Little Qing, do you know? It’s called the Big Dumpling.”
Xu Qing walked closer and lifted his head to look at the huge ring. Respect rose in his heart for the race that could create this item.
“Come and help me, let’s push it over to the Big Rectangle.”
The captain, full of energy, pushed hard, and with Xu Qing’s help, they managed to roll this huge ring forward, until it reached the side of the door frame, and both of them sat down, panting.
“Eldest Senior Brother, are you sure what you’re doing this time is a small matter?”
Xu Qing looked at the two colossal objects behind him and exclaimed.
The captain laughed and put his arm around Xu Qing’s shoulder.
“Of course it’s a small matter. After this matter is done, we’ll go to the Bitter Life Mountain Range together. The things there are the big deal!”
“By the way, Little Qing, how are you doing in the Bitter Life Mountain Range?”
“Not bad. I opened a small apothecary.” Xu Qing nodded.
“Apothecary? Not bad. Do you lack a boss?” The captain’s eyes lit up.
Xu Qing glanced at the captain. At this moment, Ling’er crawled out and quickly spoke.
“No!”
The captain chuckled and looked at Xu Qing before glancing at Ling’er with an understanding expression. After that, he coughed.
