Outside Of Time



Seeing the captain's eyes shining, Xu Qing was about to nod. However, at that moment, a cold snort rang out from beside the two of them.

"What good thing? Also, when did I become an old man?"

Xu Qing took a deep breath and the captain's expression also changed. The two of them instinctively looked in the direction of the familiar voice.

The void distorted and their master's figure was revealed.

"This is your second lesson. Sometimes, what you see might not be true. In the future, wait till you are out of a certain range before you discuss things."

Old Master Seventh calmly spoke.

Xu Qing lowered his head and remained silent, while the captain pulled a long face. Neither of them expected that their master had actually stayed hidden nearby when he had clearly left.

"Alright, I just remembered that Fourth's cultivation is about to break through, so I came back to remind him."

"Fourth, it's not a hard thing for you to break through to the Nascent Soul realm. However, the Heavenly Mandate Nascent Soul is a stage in cultivation that requires attracting the heavenly tribulation five times. Each time you experience it, it becomes more formidable."

Xu Qing nodded. He had some understanding of this.

"However, in the Nascent Soul realm, the increase in combat strength is only secondary. The key is to accumulate enough heavenly mandates through the heavenly tribulations, which will be crucial for Spirit Repository."

"According to my experience, every time the heavenly tribulation is activated with many nascent souls, although the might of the heavenly tribulation will be extremely high, once you succeed, you will obtain a lot of heavenly mandates."

"Therefore, if you get any good fortune in this Immortal Forbidden, don't be in a hurry to attract the heavenly tribulation. I'll tell you the details later."

Old Master Seventh reminded him and glared at the captain before turning to disappear.

Xu Qing fell into deep thought. This content was something he didn't know about in the past.

While he was deep in thought, the captain blinked and pulled Xu Qing away quickly. He only heaved a sigh of relief after they had walked far away.

"Master is too good to us. Little Qing, I think I've gained more understanding through this lesson."

"I feel the same way."

Xu Qing glanced at the captain and deeply agreed.

"We can't repay Master's love in this life."

"Therefore, we have to work even harder and strive to protect Master in the future!" Xu Qing said solemnly.

"That's right, Junior Brother. We should use this as our target!" The captain's face lit up. He spoke as he walked with Xu Qing.

Several hours later, they looked at each other.

"He shouldn't be around anymore, right?"

"I think so…" Xu Qing surveyed his surroundings.

"This old man is unpredictable!" The captain smiled bitterly and said in a low voice.

"Let's go, let's go to the place I mentioned earlier. There must be something good there!"

With that, the two of them quickly left.

Time slowly passed.

Three days had passed since the opening of the Immortal Forbidden.

In these three days, the first group of hundreds of thousands of human cultivators had already established a safe area of 500 kilometers.

Compared to the entire Immortal Forbidden, this range was extremely inconspicuous. Even in the eastern region, this range was only a hundredth of its territory.

This Immortal Forbidden, which was formerly one of the thirty-six palaces of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether, was enormous.

This was understandable. After all, every palace of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether was actually a small world.

And because the god was in a deep sleep, this place had never been fully explored since ancient times. It contained numerous rare treasures, ancient texts, and possibly even remnants of the ancestral heritage of the human race.

Even though they were invaded by the anomalous substances, it wasn't like they couldn't be used.

Moreover, the current Wanggu Continent's research on anomalous substances was already profound and they possessed methods to dispel anomalous substances. For instance, they used these methods to expel anomalous substances from the Taboo magic treasures.

Hence, the Imperial Capital naturally attached great importance to this Immortal Forbidden. It wasn't something that could be completely opened in a short period of time.

According to the plan, the Immortal Forbidden would continue to be excavated for months until they finally explored the surroundings and pushed to the palace in the center step by step.

The prerequisite for all of this was that there were no more gods here.

At that moment, the captain and Xu Qing were standing 50 kilometers away from that safe area. They were resting on the roof of a tall palace.

In these three days, they searched many places in the surroundings and obtained some gains. They also saw many palaces breaking down. It seemed that the reason was because the sealed environment here had been broken.

They also encountered many dangers in this exploration.

For example, the good thing the captain had mentioned was actually a huge statue that was breaking down after being invaded by the anomalous substances.

When the two of them got close, this statue actually came alive.

It was extremely dangerous.

Fortunately, the concealment Old Master Seventh had given them had extraordinary effects, and the two were able to avoid it with thumping hearts.

After this incident, the captain sighed repeatedly. The feeling of seeing fat meat but not being able to eat it made the captain's eyes turn redder and redder.

Along the way, they faced numerous challenges and setbacks until they finally arrived at a peculiar palace, but they were unable to enter it.

Hence, after many failed attempts, the two of them were currently resting on a relatively safe rooftop five kilometers away from the palace.

The captain was still gritting his teeth as all kinds of thoughts ran through his mind.

"Little Qing, this place is too vast, and our information is too limited. But I have a feeling that there must be treasures inside that palace, otherwise, there wouldn't be four statues covered by flesh in the surroundings."

When the captain's voice rang out, Xu Qing was looking at the area opened up by the human army in the distance.

The anomalous substances in that area had already been expelled and were isolated by a barrier formed by an array formation. Looking around, in the dim world, the only resplendent light shone in the safe zone.
