Outside Of Time

Fortunately, these weren't the only changes. Xu Qing's body no longer had the concept of spiritual energy.

This was because the level of spiritual energy was clearly lower and weaker. This body formed by the fragmented-face's flesh and blood didn't allow it to exist.

Hence, what filled Xu Qing's body was the extremely pure power of the divine source!

This caused not only the nihility land to turn golden but even his sea of consciousness to turn into a golden divine sea.

This was an increase in his potential.

As for defense, it was even more terrifying.

Because his body hadn't completely fused with his soul and was too powerful, it would suppress Xu Qing's soul. Hence, the two seals Old Master Seventh had left behind before he went into seclusion were the Ruler's seal and the Quasi-Immortal's seal.

As Xu Qing cultivated the Profound Sun Immortal Light and his soul fused with his body, these two seals would be undone one after another.

In the end, after he completely unlocked them, the strength of his physical body would be akin to a True God!

In cultivator's term, it was the Summer Immortal!

Before Old Master Seventh went into seclusion, he had told Xu Qing that the fragmented-face of Desolate was a result of the failure to break through to the Divine God Realm. By Itself, It was at the peak of the Venerable God Realm.

If Its arms were independent, They would have the power of a Divine Venerable!

If it were the fingers, They would contain the power of a Lord God!

As for the flesh and blood that formed Xu Qing's body, to the majestic and boundless fragmented-face, it could only be considered an insignificant portion.

Hence, it could display the power of a True God which was also the Summer Immortal.

As for the two seals imprinted on his physical body, although they were necessary to ensure that Xu Qing's soul would not be suppressed by the remnant face's flesh and blood, even with these seals still intact, Xu Qing's physical strength remained extraordinarily terrifying.

No one under the Ruler Realm could injure his body.

Xu Qing had confirmed this through his repeated battles with divine creatures during the past few months.

The defense of his body was incomparably astonishing.

For example, when the divine river dragon lashed at him with its tail earlier, Xu Qing didn't even budge, instead the divine river dragon's tail was badly mangled from the backlash and its sharp spikes broke.

As for his cultivation base, because it was only a transformation of his body, it didn't increase by much.

However, because the components of this body were too powerful and the impact affected his entire body, his combat strength was naturally different from before.

Through these few months of tempering, Xu Qing confirmed the eruption of his combat strength.

He could kill four worlds Soul Accumulation.

As for the Soul Accumulation five worlds and higher stage... Xu Qing couldn't defeat them with his cultivation base.

However, the other party couldn't hurt him either.

Hence, Xu Qing was aware that the most important thing to him now was to refine the divine authorities and increase his lethality!

At the same time, he cultivated the Profound Sun Immortal Light Technique to undo the seals on his body as soon as possible.

"It requires battle, comprehension, and experience gained from life and death."

Xu Qing muttered inwardly.

Just like that, as Xu Qing and Huang Yan sped, they reached the Sea Turtle Island, which was originally very far away, in just eight minutes.

At this moment, Huang Yan sensed his surroundings and confirmed that senior sister was fine. Hence, he transformed from the Flame Phoenix's appearance to the little fatty again.

He spoke to Xu Qing.

"Speaking of which, the location of this trial is related to the Illuminate."

"It's one of the hidden bases of the Illuminate in the Forbidden Sea. After it was discovered by the Seven Blood Eyes, they held the competition here with the goal of eliminating it."

When Xu Qing heard this, his expression was as calm as ever. After experiencing the soul destruction and reviving, he could already completely hide his emotions toward Illuminate and Purple Green.

It wasn't just his expression. It was the same in his heart.

Like the profound sea, there were no waves.

Only when it erupted would it spew out killing intent that packed the sky.

This characteristic had been part of Xu Qing's personality since childhood, but Purple Green had once been an exception.

But now, this exception had dissolved.

Xu Qing's state of mind had returned to its original equilibrium.

He calmly looked at Huang Yan, who had clearly reverted from his Flame Phoenix form on purpose.

Huang Yan coughed and explained.

"Senior Sister doesn't like my big bird form. She says she prefers my current handsome and dashing appearance."

As he spoke, Huang Yan patted his stomach and the flesh on his body trembled a few more times.

Xu Qing smiled and retracted his gaze, looking into the distance.

The vastness of the sea was only relative. To Xu Qing and Huang Yan, they could sense everything from this distance.

In their perception, on Sea Turtle Island, which was in the shape of a star, the sound of the Qiang flute echoed continuously.

Inside, countless Seven Blood Eyes disciples were undergoing the trial.

Some chose to kill, while others chose to search for treasures. According to their different personalities, their choices were different.

However, overall, they still retained the style of the Seventh Peak, with the vast majority of disciples concealing their good fortune.

Just like what Xu Qing did on Merfolk Island back then.

Looking at them, memories surfaced in Xu Qing's mind.

Further away in the Forbidden Sea, as the sound of the flute continued to echo on Sea Turtle Island, waves churned and swept in all directions like a tsunami, approaching Sea Turtle Island.

Within the waves, there seemed to be a huge existence.

As it got closer, a terrifying aura spread out violently, enveloping Sea Turtle Island and affecting the sky, causing a vortex to appear in the sky. It rumbled and trembled, threatening the safety of the Seven Blood Eyes disciples on the island.

In front of the waves, a huge being that was different from Old Master Seventh's great wing stood there.

From the looks of it, it was a shocking sword.

This suited Second Senior Sister's aesthetic taste.

Second Senior Sister stood in front of the great wing. Under her armor, she looked brave and heroic as she coldly looked at the being in the waves.

"Scram!"

Almost at the instant Second Senior Sister's voice rang out, a thousand red spheres of fire appeared in the giant waves in front of her. In the hazy seawater, they were like red eyes.
