Outside Of Time

The Seven Blood Eyes in the morning was the purest and most peaceful moment of the day.

When the first rays of sunlight quietly spread from the eastern horizon, the golden light gradually filled the ground and finally reflected the figure of a young girl walking over from the horizon.

She wore a long white dress that accentuated her beauty.

The morning sun shone on her fair skin that was as exquisite as porcelain, revealing a refreshing and refined temperament.

Her figure was slender and graceful, like a willow tree standing elegantly.

Her nose was straight, her lips rosy, and her smile as warm and bright as the surrounding sunshine.

Her smooth hair fluttered gently as she approached, carrying a mysterious rhythm that was mesmerizing.

Especially captivating were her eyes, like two sparkling gems, radiating joy and brightness. Combined with her fluttering eyelashes, reminiscent of butterfly wings, she exuded a playful and adorable charm.

Ling'er, filled with thoughts of Xu Qing, arrived at the Seventh Peak.

She pounced into Xu Qing's arms and the moment she sensed Xu Qing's aura, tears flowed uncontrollably.

"Brother Xu Qing…"

Endless longing, worry, and inexplicable anxiety were all expressed in these four words.

With these three words, her experiences fell into Xu Qing's mind.

Xu Qing gently stroked Ling'er's hair.

"Why are you crying?"

Xu Qing spoke gently.

"I don't know either… I just feel like I'm about to lose Brother Xu Qing."

Ling'er raised her head and looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing fell silent. After a long time, he smiled.

"You won't."

"Really?"

"Really."

Xu Qing nodded.

Ling'er smiled through her tears.

Xu Qing looked at Ninth Grandpa, who had never landed.

Ninth Grandpa was sitting cross-legged in the air.

Xu Qing thought about it but didn't head to the forbidden region to check on his great wing immediately. Instead, he sat outside the cave abode and told Ling'er about what had happened after he left the Moon Offering Region.

The waves and twists during this period caused Ling'er to gradually fall into a daze. Her emotions also fluctuated along with Xu Qing's description.

Whenever she heard Xu Qing mentioning various dangers, she would feel nervous.

When she heard about Xu Qing talking about the gains, she would be happy.

Gradually, she forgot her worries and immersed herself in Xu Qing's world.

As Xu Qing recounted the story, the inexplicable hesitation in Ling'er's heart disappeared. Gradually, every smile and action she displayed was filled with love for life and longing for the future.

This was a charm unique to young girls. It was the vitality and passion of youth, as well as the innocence and dreams of young girls.

It was as though one could see the flowers of spring, the sunlight of summer, the fallen leaves of autumn, and the snowflakes of winter on her body.

From time to time, when she heard Xu Qing mention Erniu, the laughter she emitted was like a clear spring in a mountain stream, crisp and pleasant to the ears.

Time flowed by.

Amidst Xu Qing's gentle voice, the sky slowly revealed a faint blue color. A few pure white clouds floated leisurely in the air. Just like Ninth Grandpa, they quietly observed everything on the Seventh Peak.

Under the illumination of the morning sun, this scene was like an ink painting, elegant and fresh.

This lasted until Ling'er yawned and fell asleep.

Xu Qing gently stroked Ling'er's head, causing her to fall deep asleep. After that, his expression turned a little solemn. He raised his head and bowed to Ninth Grandpa.

After that, he spoke in a low voice.

"Ninth Grandpa, Ling'er's body?"

In the sky, Old Ninth, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes.

"A month ago, when she reached the perfected Nascent Soul Realm, the cursed bloodline finally began to counterattack."

"The imperial qi you left behind isn't enough."

Old Ninth slowly spoke.

Xu Qing's gaze landed on the sleeping Ling'er. The instant he saw Ling'er earlier, he could sense that the cultivation fluctuations in her body were unstable.

"Therefore, I brought Ling'er here to look for you. I want to make a trip to the location of the Ancient Spirit Emperor with you and bring all his imperial qi over."

"However, there's no need to be in a hurry. Ling'er's condition is fine."

Old Ninth was expressionless and his voice was calm.

Xu Qing nodded. They would need to go to the Wood Spirit Race in Fenghai County to head to the location of the Ancient Spirit Emperor.

Although he had a token previously, after he revived in the Nanhuang Continent, that token had lost its effect. Back then, when Xu Qing was chased by Transient Evil, he had tried to activate it but he failed.

"Alright, Senior, let me finish some things first."

As he spoke, Xu Qing raised his hand and emitted a gentle force. After helping Ling'er suppress the unstable cultivation base in her body, he took a step into the air and instantly disappeared.

When he appeared, he was already in the forbidden region where his great wing had been forged.

A large empty area was cleared in the forbidden region. The instant Xu Qing's figure was revealed, he saw hundreds of thousands of cultivators doing their final inspection under Zhang San's command.

As for Huang Yan and Erniu, they were meditating far away from each other.

What Zhang San and the hundreds of thousands of Seven Blood Eyes refinement cultivators were examining was a nine-story pagoda that towered into the clouds.

This pagoda stood there and circulated with light, emitting a vast might that contained an ancient aura.

One look and one could tell that it was extraordinary.

It was surrounded by Xu Qing's Holy Heavenly Vine and shone brightly with starlight.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that this nine-story pagoda wasn't truly complete. It was formed by piecing different things.

The lowest floor was none other than the earliest damaged pagoda.

The eight floors above seemed to be added later to enhance and coordinate with control.

Noticing Xu Qing's appearance, Zhang San stood on the tall pagoda and grinned at Xu Qing.

"Xu Qing, how is it? Are you satisfied?"

"That broken pagoda of yours is too difficult to refine. Fortunately, Lord Huang Yan's fire is equally astonishing, so we barely refined it. In addition to the captain's creative ideas, we added eight floors and fused the broken pagoda."

"This way, you can indirectly control it!"

"Not only can this great wing sail in the Forbidden Sea, but its greater use… is the starry sky!"

"This is a great wing that can travel in the starry sky!"

"It contains divine creatures' materials, and also contains some gods' flesh and blood placed by the captain and Lord Huang Yan. It has astonishing might and can be stored and released freely."

"Especially considering your habit of frequently damaging things, I chose to forego inscribing divine spells and arts, focusing entirely on its sturdiness. This great wing… can even be used to smash people."

"Regardless of speed or power, this great wing is superior to the past!"

Zhang San spoke loudly, feeling extremely excited.

In the past month, as the main person for designing the construction plan, he had poured his soul and soul into it. He had displayed his talent and imagination exceptionally.

Now, he felt that this work was the pinnacle of his life.

"Now, you need to awaken your heavenly vine!"

"This heavenly vine is the artifact spirit of this great wing. During the process of refining this great wing, it has already fused deeply with it and is currently in a deep sleep."

"With it as the artifact spirit, you can perfectly control this pagoda!"

"Also, the protective bubble has been retained."

After Zhang San finished speaking, he leaped down and walked to Xu Qing's side. The excitement on his face and the unconcealable fatigue as well as the bloodshot eyes caused waves in Xu Qing's heart.

He seized a deep breath and bowed to Zhang San. He then bowed deeply to the hundreds of thousands of cultivators in the surroundings.

After that, he waved his hand at the pagoda.

As his divine sense spread out, the Holy Heavenly Vine that surrounded the pagoda suddenly moved. After that, it woke up from its slumber and swam around the pagoda.

As the starlight shone resplendently, Xu Qing's Holy Heavenly Vine suddenly swayed and swept the pagoda toward Xu Qing.

During the process of arrival, it and the pagoda rapidly shrunk. In the end, when it landed in Xu Qing's hand, it was less than an inch.

Xu Qing spread his divine sense to sense it. A while later, when he retracted his divine sense, Erniu and Huang Yan had also ended their meditation. At this moment, their expressions revealed pride.

However, at the next instant, when they sensed that the other party was also like this, they glared at each other as though they were about to bicker again.

Xu Qing coughed.

"Huang Yan, I have something on and have to leave the Nanhuang Continent first."

When Huang Yan heard this, he gazed at Xu Qing and was about to speak when Erniu instantly stood up and walked to Xu Qing's side, laughing.

"We're finally leaving? Hurry, hurry, hurry, let's go quickly. It's too boring to face a birdman here every day. I am almost fading into a bird myself!"

Xu Qing cupped his fists toward Huang Yan. There was no need to say much to each other. After that, he bowed to everyone again. With a raise of his hand, the pagoda rose into the air. According to Xu Qing's will, it transformed into a thousand-foot-long pagoda that shone with rainbow light.

When the majestic intent spread in all directions, Xu Qing seized a step forward and walked onto the pagoda. Erniu also walked behind him. As the starlight of his Holy Heavenly Vine flashed, he walked in as usual.

After that, the world rumbled and the pagoda directly broke through the void, instantly disappearing without a trace.

When it reappeared, it was already above the Seventh Peak of the Seven Blood Eyes.

The gate of the pagoda opened and the sleeping Ling'er's body rose into the air. As she was sent into the pagoda, Old Ninth also walked over and stepped into the pagoda.

His gaze swept across the surroundings, revealing a strange expression.

"This item is extraordinary!"

When Erniu heard this, he smiled proudly.

"I refined it!"

Old Ninth directly ignored him.

Xu Qing once again reinforced Ling'er, causing her cultivation to become even more gentle. Under his divine sense, this pagoda shone brightly on the Seventh Peak, catching the attention of the Seven Blood Eyes' disciples.

The light rippled through the sky and spread out for 5,000 kilometers.

After that, it disappeared.

It sped through the Forbidden Sea at an astonishing speed.

It stirred up monstrous waves on the surface of the sea as it moved in the direction of the Yinghuang Province.

Wherever it passed, countless sea beasts would tremble violently after sensing the aura and pressure of the pagoda.

At that moment, in the Yinghuang Province, the great elder of the Sword Holding Ministry who was in charge of this province was flying in the direction of the Grand Affairs Misfortune Passing Mountain. After crossing the Immortal Enrichment River, his figure appeared outside the Spirit Sound Forbidden Region in the province.

Here, his expression was solemn as he gazed at the holy land and spoke in a low voice.

"Three days ago, a Sword Holder from my Sword Holding Ministry carried out a mission to pursue the wanted cultivator of the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect, Li Zimei. They entered this place together and disappeared."

"Master of Spirit Sound, be it the Yinghuang Province or Fenghai County, the Holy Wave Large Region they're in is already different from the last time you woke up!"

"I'm under the orders of the Fenghai County's Sword Holding Palace to command your forbidden region to release the person immediately!"

A heavenly sound suddenly rang out from the Spirit Sound Forbidden Region, forming waves that transformed into a sound attack.

The sound was astonishing. The moment it spread out, the entire forbidden region trembled. Even the flowing Immortal Enrichment River stirred up large waves, transforming into a cold voice that rang out from the forbidden region.

"Scram!"

The great elder of the Yinghuang Province's Sword Holding Ministry trembled and retreated thousands of feet. His face was pale but his gaze was even sharper. He stared at the forbidden region and slowly spoke.

"That Sword Holder's name is Qing Qiu. She is an old friend of my region lord, Xu Qing."

"If you insist on doing things your way, there will definitely be a calamity. Do not blame me for not warning you!"
