Outside Of Time

Behind Xu Qing, the massive blue nail was getting faster, causing a storm and surrounded by a sea of blue light. Amidst the collapsing sky and shattering earth, it approached the surface ice layer rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, there was only 20,000 feet between it and the ground.

At such a close distance, the destructive force emanating from the nail could obliterate everything. The collapse of the ice layer continued to spread, creating a massive crater that appeared on the ground.

The surroundings shattered with rumbling sounds. The crater was 100,000 feet deep and was still collapsing. Many of the sleeping souls inside died under this pressure before they could wake up.

Those who woke up were even more miserable. They couldn't escape and were shattered.

The nail continued to get closer to the ground, 10,000 feet away, 8,000 feet away, 5,000 feet away…

The ground's fragmentation reached its peak, and at the bottom of the crater, there was now exposed earth and soil. Unlike when the captain raised the sun, where the ice layer would heal itself, at this moment, the ice layer had lost its regenerative power.

Until a deafening roar shook the entire fragmented world like never before, and the ruler's nail fell into the deep pit in the ice.

At the moment of contact, a circular storm erupted on the ice, and the shockwave, squeezed by the deep pit, spread out with a thunderous roar.

The ice layer continued to explode and rise with that place as the center.

50 kilometers, 500 kilometers, 5000 kilometers…

Endless ice layers exploded in unison.

The nail pressed forward in the deep pit like a hot knife through butter. Finally, it came into contact with the real soil in the depths.

The earth crumbled, frozen soil collapsed, and the nail tore through, breaking the soil layer and penetrating beneath the surface of this fragmented world!

With an even stronger aura, firmer conviction, and an even more terrifying sharpness, it ruthlessly blasted into the depths!

Outside, although Xu Qing was in mid-air, he was too close. The aftershocks from the collapse of the ground caused his body to lose balance and he was blown far away like a kite with a broken string.

Fortunately, he had the protection of the blue light that came from the same source as the nail. Hence, after Xu Qing spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, he borrowed the momentum to increase his speed and distance himself with all his might.

As for the captain and the other two, they had already ascended into the air. They were at a considerable distance, and with the skin acting as a barrier, and even the sun being taken back by the captain to share the burden, they were relatively safe.

However, they all felt their hearts palpitate.

The two sides rapidly approached each other. Xu Qing's voice suddenly rang out with a hint of reminder.

"Rise into the air with all your might. A drastic change is about to happen below!"

Xu Qing was very clear about the goal of that nail. Hence, he understood that the collapse of the world fragment would definitely start from the ground. After reminding them, he sped toward the collapsing sky.

The captain and the other two reacted very fast. They all understood that now wasn't the time to reminisce about the past, so they erupted with all their might and headed straight for the sky.

Wu Jianwu and Ning Yan were slow. The captain simply held them in his hands and erupted with even greater strength, charging into the air.

The four of them were getting further and further away from the ground. When they got close to the sky, the world trembled again.

This time, it was even more astonishing and intense than before. The impact wasn't just 5,000 kilometers but the entire range of this great world fragment.

This was because the source earlier was from top to bottom, but now, the source was from bottom to top!

Under the ice layer of this great world fragment and at the bottom of the frozen soil, there was a massive being. At this moment… it had recovered from the state of being suppressed by the seal.

It was shaking and rising from the ground.

All the ice layers were lifted and countless ice cubes erupted. A huge bronze coffin broke through the ground, the frozen soil, and the ice layers, appearing in front of Xu Qing and the other three!

It was exactly the same as the coffin under the sea of fire!

It was astonishingly majestic.

It had been buried underground for countless years. At this moment… it reappeared in the world!

An ancient aura filled the world.

On the lid of the coffin, there was a nail nailed there. The lid of the coffin was filled with cracks.

Blue fog rose from the nail, revealing the heir's figure. He floated outside the coffin and spoke softly.

"Third Sister, it's time to wake up."
