Outside Of Time



Booming sounds spread.

Xu Qing spat out a mouthful of blood and his expression was grim as he continuously retreated.

He could only retreat!

This was the first time he had seen his Poison Restriction's power being neutralized. Or rather, it was more appropriate to say it was delayed. When combined with infinite resurrection, this delay would extend to a certain extent.

However, Xu Qing could sense that his poison… was still there!

Even if the other party reversed space-time and resurrected, the poison would still exist in the depths of his body. This was the terrifying aspect of his Poison Restriction.

However, after being delayed, although the poison was terrifying, Xu Qing knew that if this continued, he might not have a chance to wait for the poison to erupt.

These nine corpses had an undying body. Xu Qing's attacks had no effect on them. It was as though the souls on their bodies were enduring all of the attacks for them.

This was also Chu Tianqun's method to delay the Dao of Poison.

He transferred the poison in his body to the nine corpses and into countless souls.

As for the countless souls, although they were wailing and weeping, Xu Qing felt that they were willing to do so.

It was as though Chu Tianqun was their faith and their god!

This, in fact, was one of the gods' abilities!

The nine corpses possessed undying ability. Moreover, they were all at early-stage Nascent Soul realm. Xu Qing could fight one early-stage Nascent Soul, but nine of them together were a fatal danger.

Seeing that it was getting more and more dangerous, a cold glint flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. He still had two trump traps he hadn't used. However, these two trump cards were the most powerful when they were used for the first time. Especially the Ghost Emperor Mountain, he would only have one chance to manifest it.

"The key is the souls. It's useless to suppress these souls. Either destroy them or… subdue them!"

At the thought of this, determination appeared in Xu Qing's eyes. He suddenly lifted his right hand and the Bizarre Nether Dao Snatching Art instantly circulated. His right hand turned translucent and he stabbed his own chest.

The cold hand penetrated his body and directly entered his sea of consciousness, reaching into the Fourth Heavenly Palace and grabbing the… Purple Moon inside!

He was using the power of the Purple Moon with the Heavenly Palace. Just like a small horse-drawn carriage, although this item came from the same source as Xu Qing, due to his limited strength, he could not unleash its strength completely.

The only way to unleash its might was to take it out and use it directly.

At that moment, as Xu Qing grabbed the Purple Moon, the veins on his forehead bulged and intense pain spread throughout his body. However, he didn't even frown. His gaze was still calm and filled with killing intent as he ruthlessly tugged.

Immediately, his Fourth Heavenly Palace trembled. Xu Qing took out the Purple Moon with his right hand and lifted it high.

In that instant, endless purple light erupted between his fingers, transforming into a vast sea of purple light that spread endlessly in all directions.

Wherever it passed, the world turned purple. It was as though the area it covered was separated from the world and the void, becoming… a Divine Realm to a certain extent.

In the Divine Realm, purple light was divine power, and the Purple Moon at its source was a god!

As the purple light erupted, the expression of Chu Tianqun's main body changed drastically. His mind even rumbled as he cried out involuntarily.

"God's authority!"

"This is impossible!!"

As he spoke, he spat out a large mouthful of golden blood and tears of blood flowed down his eyes. He seemed to be about to go blind. His body trembled violently and he couldn't help but want to cover his eyes and worship.

At the same time, his body also distorted at this moment. All his flesh and blood seemed to have developed their own consciousness and were trying to separate from his body. However, he was a god specimen after all. His divine power suppressed the rebellion intensely and tried to maintain a balance.

If even he was like this, there was no need to mention his calamity corpses.

These corpses had gone blind and they knelt down one after another while letting out mournful cries. The anomalous substances in their bodies were incomparably dense, and they were about to mutate.

As for the human souls on their bodies, they no longer wailed or weeped after being invaded. They seemed to have changed their faith as their expressions revealed unprecedented piety.

One by one, they left the corpses' bodies and flew toward the Purple Moon in Xu Qing's right hand.

Without the support of the souls, the nine corpses' bodies showed signs of collapsing.

Chu Tianqun also couldn't continue to delay the power of the Poison Restriction. The poison in his body erupted and he rapidly rotted.

Killing intent flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. Just as he was about to continue, at the next instant, waves appeared in the sky and a huge sense of danger rose in his heart. This danger surpassed all his perceptions in the past. It was soul-stirring and carried an ominous feeling, as though it was a great terror.

Xu Qing's expression changed drastically.

The Heavenly Dao Mosasaur in the sky also let out a mournful and hurried cry.

Vaguely, it was as though an indescribable existence had sensed the aura of the Purple Moon. It seemed to be awakening and was searching.

The color of the sky was faintly red at this moment.

The image of the Red Moon and the terrifying god statue appeared in Xu Qing's mind, as well as the sound of breathing he had heard on the Absolute Beginning Separation Pillar.

This was actually Xu Qing's greatest worry. He knew how he got this Purple Moon.

At that moment, he didn't hesitate at all. As the anxious voice of the Heavenly Dao Mosasaur rang out, he immediately placed the raised Purple Moon into the Heavenly Palace in his body. He also retracted the Poison Restriction Pill and used all his strength to hide the god power contained in it.

After doing this, he headed straight for Chu Tianqun at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, he got close and a dagger appeared in his right hand. He then slashed at Chu Tianqun's neck!

However, at the next instant, a golden light erupted from Chu Tianqun's body and blocked Xu Qing's dagger, even rebounding the attack. Xu Qing's body trembled and blood flowed out as he rapidly retreated.

The instant he fled, Chu Tianqun, who was rotting, suddenly opened his eyes. After casting a deep glance at Xu Qing, he lifted his head and slapped his forehead.

His head collapsed and he instantly died.

Xu Qing's expression was ugly. As he retreated, he quickly looked at the sky.

At that moment, the faint red light in the sky had already dissipated. The anxious voice of the Heavenly Dao Mosasaur was no longer there. This allowed Xu Qing to heave a sigh of relief. He knew that his Poison Restriction power had successfully concealed the Purple Moon's aura.

He immediately flew into the sky and tried to tear open the seal here.

Although the might of the seal here was astonishing, the Heavenly Dao Mosasaur's status was higher. Most of the seal had already disintegrated.

However, Xu Qing was dissatisfied. He felt that the Heavenly Dao Mosasaur should be very powerful. Why was it taking so much time to break a seal?

Even though this seal was prepared by Chu Tianqun with all his might and contained his divine power.

It was still too slow.

The mosasaur felt aggrieved.

Xu Qing used his full strength to tear a gap in the seal. Just as he was about to teleport, his gaze passed through the gap and saw the external world. His heart sank and his movements paused.

The external world… wasn't the part of the desert as this place!

Outside the seal was a world filled with fog and smoke.

The mosasaur let out a cry as though it was explaining, as though it was telling Xu Qing that this wasn't its home ground.

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed.

"You really tore it open. Unfortunately… I've already taken precautions. Do you really think this is still the Wanggu Continent?"

"This is the Smoke World that is completely refined and controlled by the Smoke Race. It's not a small world but the remaining fragment of an ancient great world that was only inferior to the Wanggu Continent."

"This is a supreme treasure that surpasses Taboo magic treasures!"

"I traded a hundred drops of divine blood for a chance to open it. Either I die or you die. Only one of us can leave alive today."

On the ground, as time reversed, Chu Tianqun's figure reappeared and returned to normal. However, there were some areas on his face that were still in a rotting state.

There were also some parts that emitted purple light.

That was caused by Xu Qing's divine power. Even if he resurrected, he wouldn't be able to erase it.

Due to this, Chu Tianqun looked very sinister right now.

Xu Qing stood in the air and looked at Chu Tianqun.

"Then I'll kill you!"

Xu Qing headed straight for Chu Tianqun.

"Kill me?" Chu Tianqun laughed sinisterly. He sat down cross-legged and performed a series of hand seals with both hands. Immediately, golden light appeared in the surroundings and enveloped his body. Golden light erupted from his eyes as well and his entire body turned golden at this moment.

Even his hair turned golden.

An intense feeling of holiness erupted from his body. His expression was no longer sinister but indifferent. It was as though his life level had increased, causing all emotions to be redundant.

In this indifference, he closed his eyes and ignored Xu Qing who was rushing over. Waves of murmurs rang out like scriptures.

"Follow the path of darkness, from the first stage of the Underworld Divine Transcendence to the Spirit Darklight…"

As soon as the voice rang out, this imprisoned world shook intensely.

This wasn't a scripture, this was the mumbling of a god!

Chu Tianqun himself was a god specimen, so he used his divine power to simulate the murmurs he heard and transmitted them to the world.

The surroundings distorted and became blurry. Endless anomalous substances rose in the entire area, invading and mutating everything. In fact, the mutated beasts even started to appear from nothing in the surroundings.

Xu Qing's mind trembled intensely. His body was also affected and anomalous substances that didn't belong to him appeared.

"Darkness, Light, Essence, Morals,…"

Xu Qing fell from the sky. His eyes were red as he lifted his head and stared at the mumbling Chu Tianqun. The other party's figure was a blur in his eyes and was overlapped by countless images. Vaguely, it seemed as if a shape of an indescribable god was emerging and transforming before his eyes.

His mind was extremely chaotic at this moment. His breathing was hurried and his body was a little out of control. The other party's murmurs seemed to have materialized and were everywhere in his sea of consciousness, mind, magic power, and flesh and blood.

The pain of being torn apart spread from his entire body.

The scene of him seeing the god's eye in the ghost cave under the Absolute Beginning Separation Pillar appeared once again.
