Outside Of Time

In this world, there were many cultivators from all races who had once resisted the gods, but now… there were almost none left.

The reason for this was because all those who had resisted had been annihilated.

Only gods could match gods most of the time.

For countless years, other than the successful during the epochal battled led by the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether before his departure, there had been no such occurrences since then.

Gods were high and mighty. They couldn't be blasphemed or looked at directly.

Gradually, the matter of slaying a god became an impossible thing in the hearts of all races. In fact, just imagining it caused fear to rise in their hearts.

Because the power and terror of gods often surpass the understanding of cultivators, extending beyond the scope of their divine abilities and even transcending their comprehension.

The two sides… were on completely different levels.

In the eyes of the vast majority of cultivators, any god was indescribable. They were omniscient and omnipotent. Cultivators couldn't understand them. Everything about gods was mysterious and bizarre.

In the eyes of the gods, all living beings were simple. They could see their past and future at a glance. Even though this future was changing, this kind of vision was a manifestation of their status.

Only those cultivators who had cultivated to the peak could possess a similar level of cultivation that could make the god pay some attention to them.

It was just that… such peak-level cultivators were too few.

As for gods, there were those who became gods after they were born, and there were also existences who were born as gods.

Therefore, when cultivators were still relying on various magical techniques, such as wind, rain, thunder, lightning, metal, wood, water, and fire, those elements held no significance for the gods.

A god's attack was just like what Zhang Siyun showed. He only lifted His hand and easily grasped everyone's fate like he was fortune-telling.

In the eyes of the gods, there wasn't much difference between cultivators and mortals.

A slight tap could change their fates.

How could such power not make one feel despair?

Right now, regardless of whether it was the heir, Princess Mingmei, the captain, or Xu Qing, they no longer had any memories of the past. In fact, at this moment, it was as though they didn't recognize each other.

The only thing that existed was the continuous pain and torture in their respective memories.

Without beauty as a comparison, the remaining pain couldn't be described with the word 'pain'. It was inaccurate.

However, the torture brought about by this memory and the instinctive discomfort had no beginning or end.

It was hard to describe with words.

No one could withstand it.

For example, Xu Qing… At this moment, he was immersed in the scene of his breakdown back then.

He wanted to walk out, but all his memories were in this scene, forming a cycle. The past was, and the future was. There was no way out…

All of them were only standing outside the Moon Palace's gate, and hadn't even stepped in.

It was as though their thought of wanting to kill the god was just a joke.

"Mortal slaying a god?"

In the gate, Zhang Siyun, who was on the spider lily, shook his head gently. He lifted his right thumb and placed it on the second joint of his ring finger.

A light touch.

The sound of a broken bottle echoed in all directions, crisp and clear.

"Fate, collapse."

His voice echoed and landed in the world.

The captain's body trembled and cracks uncontrollably spread throughout his body. Even though the blue light emitted from his body had frozen him, it still couldn't stop this shattering.

His body collapsed at this moment, turning into pieces of flesh that fell on the ground.

Xu Qing was next. Amidst the waves and confusion brought about by the second scene in the purple crystal, his world plunged into eternal darkness, where everything ceased to exist.

It was exactly the same as the scene after Crown Prince Purple Green's finger landed.

Next was Old Eighth. His body rumbled and the godly power brought about by the seven emotions and six desires was erased at this moment. His body couldn't hold on and collapsed.

After them were the heir and Princess Mingmei. Although they were Soul Accumulation cultivators, their great worlds were also in mourning. In these worlds, sentient beings suffered, withering away, and their vitality dimmed.

Next was Old Ninth, but he could still endure. At this moment, he slowly lifted his head and a sword gradually gathered in his trembling right hand. It was his last sword of life.

It was also his strongest sword strike. It was the pinnacle sword that the Ancient Spirit Emperor had seen earlier.

However, what the Ancient Spirit Emperor didn't see was that Old Ninth's last strike wasn't to kill but to protect.

The gate of the Moon Palace was slowly closing. Zhang Siyun shook His head and closed His eyes.

He lost interest and seemed to have turned into a statue, with no joy or sorrow.

Everything was over.

Old Ninth fell silent. Behind him was the fifth princess whose eyes were closed.

Her aged face had long lost its redness, appearing pale and lifeless. The scent of death lingered heavily around her. If it weren't for Old Nine's protection, she would have perished long ago.

At this moment, she silently gazed at her brother in front of her, then looked at the deceased figures around. She closed her eyes.

Gradually, a glow emanated from her body, gathering in front and slowly forming a flower.

The stamens swayed like lively life unfolding, while the petals continued to unfurl, exuding beauty.

The instant this flower appeared, the closing gate of the Moon Palace suddenly stopped.

Zhang Siyun suddenly opened His eyes and looked outside the gate.

That flower was also a spider lily!

It was the same as the one Zhang Siyun was sitting on.

However, its color was white.

As it bloomed, fifth princes aged.

She was burning herself, just as she did when she was born, using her life to save her siblings. Throughout her life, she burned herself again and again, saving everything.

While the other siblings had youthful faces, she alone, very early on, appeared aged, emanating an aura of twilight.

She knew that this was her mission.

She understood that this was her meaning.

She had once hated it, but in the end… she still chose to have no regrets.

As the flower bloomed and the fragrance of the flower spread, the heir's shattered body recovered immediately. Princess Mingmei, Old Eighth, the captain, and Xu Qing also revived.

Everyone revived at this moment. Their bodies reformed and their auras erupted again. Their emotions also stabilized.

The strangest thing was that their recollections of the past, which had collapsed under the divine technique, were also erased of all the pain and reconstructed.

This wasn't a reversal of time. Under the god's divine technique, unless one possessed the corresponding status, it was impossible for time to flow in reverse.

The fifth princess' spider lily was a blessing!

Just like there was a divine curse, there were also divine blessings in this world, but they were extremely rare.

This scene caused Zhang Siyun's expression to alter for the first time. He stared at the fifth princess outside the gate and spoke softly.

"Li Zihua is quite thoughtful, he sealed a god in your body in the future!"

"In the future, there will be a god within you, and the irreversibility of the god is like karma. So until the time when the god is sealed, you won't die!"

"As such, you can use your mortal body to cast divine techniques without limit. You can withstand the curse and give others blessings… Moreover, you could even hide it from my main body."

"However, although you won't die, you will age… and when you age to the extreme, your body will become an empty shell with no consciousness. Interesting. Which god is your body prepared for?"

Zhang Siyun muttered, revealing the fifth princess' secret!

As His voice echoed, outside the Moon Palace, the revived heir and the others quietly looked at Fifth Sister.

The fifth princess' aura was weak, and her aging became even more serious. Her entire person exuded the aura of death as she spat out a mouthful of blood.

However, a smile appeared on her face and she spoke hoarsely.

"This is the meaning of my existence."

When these words fell into everyone's ears and into Xu Qing's consciousness, his body quivered and his eyes slowly opened.

Everything that had happened earlier was like a nightmare. At this moment, the captain also opened his eyes and let out a long breath. His expression was a little gloomy and carried a rare baleful aura. Just now, at the critical moment, he had already summoned the high god but the other party had refused to come.

'Sooner or later, I'll kill this b*stard god who doesn't commit Herself until success is certain!'

The captain made up his mind. After that, he lifted his head and looked at Zhang Siyun, who was on the Moonlight Sea inside the gate, with a cold glint in his eyes.

The heir and the others also revealed cold gazes. Their gazes shifted away from the fifth princess and the moment they looked at Zhang Siyun, the heir moved.

He lifted his right hand and a black nail rapidly formed in his hand. It was none other than the ruler's nail.

The moment it formed, he bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood. The shadow of the world manifested in this blood and fused into the nail.

That was his great world. He was using his great world to augment this nail!

At the side, Princess Mingmei and Old Eighth also circulated their cultivation to the extreme. Each of them sprayed out blood onto the nail. In an instant, the world shadows on the nail reached up to four!

Its aura was so strong that it instantly overflowed into the sky.

The surface cracked open, the black skin peeled away, revealing the white body of the ruler's nail inside. On the side, Old Ninth had a fierce expression; he raised his hand and grabbed the nail, allowing it to pierce through his palm, and a large amount of blood flowed into it.

Soon, the fifth and sixth shadows of the world manifested on the nail.

Their appearance shattered the last bit of black skin on the nail, revealing its white body fully.

It was as though a seal had been undone, displaying the true might of the ruler's nail.

Its aura caused an atmospheric phenomenon. The Red Moon Star swayed and a terrifying aura erupted. Old Ninth let out a deep shout and waved his bloodied right hand. As thunder exploded and the void collapsed, the nail transformed into a white light, heading straight for the gate of the Moon Palace!

"With the power of cognition, this nail will definitely hit!"

"With the method of time, everything in the past and prospects will be broken!"

"Using the ability of emotions, human nature defies the gods!"

"Using the Dao of Slaughter, it won't return without seeing blood!"

The heir and the others spoke in deep voices.

The white nail shuttled through time and space and instantly flew into the Moon Palace's gate, stirring up an earth-shattering momentum. It pierced through the air and separated the Moonlight Sea, forming a straight line.

The moonlight sea churned and the surroundings collapsed. This nail was like a hot knife through butter as it headed straight for Zhang Siyun on the spider lily!
