Outside Of Time



He could also sense the aura contained in the body of the old man from the Painting Race. It contained a new life.

Previously, he couldn't use his perception at the microscopic level. Now that he swept his gaze over it, it was incomparably clear.

This was because the essence of its perception had undergone a transformation and given birth to a divine consciousness!

Divine consciousness was something that only Nascent Soul cultivators possessed. It was the power formed by the fusion of the Dao Nascent and soul. It was the foundation for casting divine powers.

Before reaching the Nascent Soul realm, spells were only spells.

After reaching the Nascent Soul realm, there were divine powers above spells.

Not only that, but as the Golden Crow successfully advanced to the third level, a majestic nourishing power also erupted from the Fifth Heavenly Palace, nourishing Xu Qing.

This was the effect of Golden Crow Refines All Life. Every time it devoured something, it would nourish Xu Qing.

However, this time, the nourishing power was unprecedented.

Xu Qing's body was tempered again, and because the nourishment was too great, it fused into the other Heavenly Palaces in his body. Even the Ninth Heavenly Palace rapidly manifested.

Xu Qing's First Heavenly Palace was the black umbrella lantern, the Second Heavenly Palace was the Rainbow Wind Song Lantern, the Third Heavenly Palace was the Poison Restriction Pill, the Fourth Heavenly Palace was the Purple Moon, the Fifth Heavenly Palace was the Golden Crow emperor-level cultivation art, the Sixth Heavenly Palace was the Heavenly Dao Mosasaur, the Seventh Heavenly Palace was the Ghost Emperor Mountain, and the Eighth Heavenly Palace was the Nether Spirit Blood Wing Lantern.

The Ninth Heavenly Palace was originally half completed in the Ten Guts Trees. Now, under the nourishment, its materialization fastened rapidly. 70%, 80%, 90%…

After the amount of time it took for an incense stick to burn out, the Ninth Heavenly Palace was 99% materialized. It was only lacking an item to be its core.

"Core item… Golden Crow, spit out the light!"

Xu Qing's mind raced and his divine consciousness immediately descended on the Fifth Heavenly Palace. The eyes of the Golden Crow Dao Nascent inside opened, revealing a rainbow-colored light. At the next instant, it opened its mouth and spat out a beam of light.

It was the morning glow.

This light flickered as it headed straight for the Ninth Heavenly Palace.

The moment it fused into it, the Ninth Heavenly Palace instantly became a rainbow palace. Its entire body was crystal clear and it emitted boundless rays of light. The morning glow that had fused into it had transformed into a light sphere. Xu Qing could vaguely see a huge living being that looked like a phoenix sleeping there.

The sun that had fallen here wasn't a Golden Crow but another lifeform. As for the reason why Xu Qing's Golden Crow could devour it, it was because they essentially came from the same source.

At that moment, as the Ninth Heavenly Palace was formed and the morning glow fused into it, Xu Qing's cultivation broke through!

As his combat strength soared crazily, he discovered that the nourishment from the Golden Crow wasn't over. His Tenth Heavenly Palace was actually forming!

Xu Qing's mind shook and endless desire rose in his heart. He opened his eyes and looked at the old man from the Painting Race and the god's finger.

To him, his energy fluctuations were a tremendous change. However, this was his matter. To that god's finger, the most important thing was Its body. Hence, even though It sensed Xu Qing's changes, It didn't care. Instead, It continued to focus on fusing Its divine sense into the body.

The painting old man noticed the changes in Xu Qing. His gaze flickered slightly, but he pretended that he didn't see it and continued painting.

The body he was painting was now half-formed. Its divine might was even more astonishing as it continued to spread in all directions, causing the distortion and blurriness in this place to become even more intense. It even formed a vast storm.

Seeing this scene, Xu Qing made a decision.

"If I escape now, once that old man stops drawing and uses the excuse that he lacks paint, there's a high chance that the god's finger will come after me…"

"Now is not the time to escape. I have to wait for the instant the finger fuses into the body!"

Xu Qing calmed himself down. As he waited, he circulated the nourishing power from the Golden Crow in his body and gushed it all into the Tenth Heavenly Palace.

As for the item to place in the Tenth Heavenly Palace once it was completed, he had already thought of it.

"This time, I will fuse it with the purple crystal!"
