Outside Of Time

Xu Qing had seen many such suns.

One of them was etched into his memory, engraved into his soul, never to be forgotten through all his lifetimes.

It was the last noon in Peerless City.

The sunlight on that day was also intense until a figure appeared. After that, a rain of blood descended on Peerless City…

Today, this figure once again appeared before Xu Qing's gaze under the noon sun.

Purple hue invaded the light and isolated the heat, gathering from the sky and descending from the heavens.

Step by step, he walked toward the human world.

Finally, he replaced the daylight and the sky, stepping into Xu Qing's sight, covering his world and everything he saw.

Crown Prince Purple Green!

His features were handsome, his smile gentle, his gaze serene, and his steps light.

He stood in the air and softly spoke towards the palace.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on advancing to the Divine Platform."

A calm voice echoed in the palace.

"At this moment, you should be in your region, and not in mine."

When Purple Green heard this, he smiled and nodded.

"Empress is right. After I take the doll, I'll leave."

After saying that, Purple Green turned and looked at Xu Qing.

His gaze was as gentle as ever, just like when he was in Peerless City.

"Brother, have you been waiting for me?"

Xu Qing calmly nodded.

"Looks like you've really grown up."

Purple Green smiled. He then raised his right hand and gently grabbed at Xu Qing.

"So, let's go. I'll take you home."

With this grasp, the sky instantly reversed, and the earth roared. A terrifying force descended upon the world, slicing through time in all directions and severing the fate of this place from that of Wanggu.

This caused Xu Qing's surroundings to become a spacetime independent of Wanggu.

It was unstoppable and irresistible like fate.

In fact, it was unknown if it was an illusion, but Xu Qing seemed to see Peerless City, the blood rain, and himself crying helplessly while hugging the rag doll.

However, at that moment, a cold snort suddenly rang out from the palace.

There were also five god auras that erupted from the fortune of the human race and descended between heaven and earth, locking onto Purple Green.

In an instant, the reversed sky was straightened and the rumbling ground was suppressed.

"Your Majesty, this is a family matter between my brother and me."

Purple Green's hand paused in mid-air. He looked at the palace and spoke softly.

"Minister Xu is my subject, King Zhen Cang of my race, and the Grand Tutor."

The Empress' voice was calm and unquestionable.

"Oh?"

As if hearing something interesting, Purple Green's smile grew even wider. His eyes slowly revealed a light other than gentleness. It looked resplendent but there was a hint of ancient vicissitudes.

Even his voice was the same.

"My brother doesn't seem to want you to interfere either."

"However, since Your Majesty has spoken, then… how about we play a game of choice?"

After Purple Green finished speaking, he raised his left hand and flipped it over, revealing a purple wooden box.

With a touch of his fingertips, the box opened.

A beam of light burst out from within the wooden box!

That light was colorless and invisible, but one could sense that the instant it appeared, the sky rippled, the earth rumbled, and the sun and moon lost their color!

The expressions of everyone in the Imperial City, regardless of whether they were mortals or cultivators changed drastically at this moment.

Because that light…

It was the gaze that the god's fragmented-face emitted after opening Its eyes!

It first emerged years ago at Seven Blood Eyes, released by the Night Dove.

After that, Xu Qing also saw It in a god specimen.

However, at this moment, the light that emerged in the box in Crown Prince Purple Green's palm was much denser than what he had seen in the past!

At the instant It was displayed, no matter what cultivation realm one had, no matter if their divine powers and Dao arts could change the world, at this instant… they were all trembling.

Even gods were no exception.

This was because that was the suppression of life level. It was a blade of execution that hung above the heads of all races in the Wanggu.

Levels determined everything.

As the wooden box was opened and an invisible, colorless, and even undetectable stare was released, the clouds and fog churned intensely, as though they had transformed into a raging sea.

The Imperial Capital became blurry.

Vaguely, there seemed to be a murmur that shook the souls echoing in this world, causing one's body to be unstable. The surroundings spun, and people roared in pain and madness.

Everything in the universe was blurry and distorted.

However, the imperial capital wasn't the Seven Blood Eyes and the Empress was a powerful Divine Platform god. At the next instant, the array formation in the palace rumbled and the fortune of the human race rose into the air. The five gods formed by the past human emperors revealed their true bodies and descended.

An earth-shattering aura emerged in the palace, seemingly transforming into a huge vortex that wanted to absorb all the illumination that landed here.

However… since Purple Green was here and wanted to play a game with the Empress, his actions couldn't be limited to this.

At the next instant, in a mysterious area that was heavily guarded all year round in the Grand Imperial Capital Region, gazes of awe shot up to the heavens.

This area was the repository of the human race's historical mission. For tens of thousands of years, no matter the circumstances, it had never been affected.

There, in addition to the heavy human military presence, there also existed a special sect.

This sect, although one of the top ten sects of the human race, had almost never had disciples emerge into the world. They spent their years protecting this place!

This sect was the Hidden Earth Path that was located under the abyss and had a special mission!
