Outside of Time-Chapter 1342 Droz

?Yue Dong kept on looking in the direction Xu Qing and the others had left in. After a while, although she was a little unwilling, she still gave up on Xu Qing and Erniu in the end.

Clearly, to her, the most important thing now wasn't to refine puppets or the liaoxuan holy liquid, but the Liaoxuan Holy Ancestor's inheritance in Feng Lintao's soul.

After all, that was the inheritance of a Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor!

"I can't give Feng Lintao time to recuperate. He has the seeds of my emotions on him, so his tracks are like torches in the night to me."

A dark glint flashed in Yue Dong's eyes. After making the decision, she no longer hesitated and moved toward the horizon.

Beside her, Lan Yao was still gritting her teeth. She also took a step forward and followed Yue Dong.

As for the emperor's talisman, it also silently disappeared and was stored away with the departure of the two women.

The entire catacombs fell silent.

A while later, accompanied by the sound of the mirror shattering, an angry roar rose into the sky from the catacombs. At the next moment, a golden light rushed out.

It was that golden rat.

However, just as it was about to rush out of the catacombs, a mournful cry rang out from its mouth.

Its entire body trembled as though an invisible pressure had descended, stopping it from leaving this place.

Very soon, this pressure transformed into countless runes that rose from its bloodline like meridians. They appeared densely on its body.

This was especially so for the head. There were even more rune marks.

These rune marks emitted an ancient aura and contained the fluctuations of gods. Moreover, they had clearly existed on it for many years. It was also because of this that the golden rat couldn't leave the catacombs.

It was suppressed here!

The intense stimulation and the tearing of the soul caused the golden rat's heart-rending roar to become even more shocking.

As it struggled, these runes seemed to come alive and rapidly flowed through its entire body. Finally, they all gathered on its head and ruthlessly pierced into it.

They circled around its mind and reversed its soul, causing its intelligence, which was already constantly being erased, to be even more like a wild beast.

The strangest thing was that its forehead showed signs of turning into paper.

It was as though if it continued to struggle, very soon, its body would turn into paper and it would become a paper rat.

It could only let out an unwilling roar as it stared fixedly at the sky.

The color of the sky changed and the wind surged. A huge vortex appeared in the sky. As it rumbled, one could vaguely see a cold eye looking down at the ground and the golden rat from the vortex.

This eye was strange, as though it was drawn. What was even stranger was the vortex in the sky. At first glance, it was vast but upon closer inspection, it seemed that… this vortex was also formed from paper.

A deep voice spread from the vortex.

"Night Mill, you've been refined for over 30,000 years and your divine fire has been extinguished many times. Even now, you're still unwilling to become the Night God under me."

The color of blood in the golden rat's eyes became even more intense. As its body struggled, a hint of intelligence that seemed like it could dissipate at any moment slowly gathered in its pupils. It didn't speak much, but the hoarse and unclear voice coming out of its mouth revealed an irreconcilable hatred.

"Dr… oz!"

After letting out a roar, the golden rat turned and headed straight for the catacombs, returning to the tunnel where the Liaoxuan Pool was located.

In the sky, the eye in the vortex became increasingly cold.

"It's fine. I have plenty of time."

As the voice echoed, the vortex blurred and gradually dissipated.

Everything in the world returned to normal.

The scene that appeared here was only limited to this area. Hence, regardless of whether it was Xu Qing, Erniu, Feng, or Yue Dong and Lan Yao, their perception of this place was blocked for various reasons.

However, they were not ordinary people. They all had different advantages in their spirit perception.

Hence, they more or less sensed something at this moment.

Between the two beams of light that moved through the air, Xu Qing suddenly turned his head and looked behind him with a puzzled expression.

The captain beside him also immediately looked at the sky behind him with a surprised expression.

The two of them looked at each other and quickly retracted their gazes and sped up without saying anything.

Just like that, three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Xu Qing and the captain used all kinds of methods to conceal themselves. Finally, they safely flew out of Liaoxuan County and entered the territory of the human race's Grand Imperial Capital Region.

They saw the human cities on the outer-rings of the Imperial Capital.

The familiar style and familiar aura caused Xu Qing and the captain's hanging hearts to relax a little. However, their vigilance still existed.

The scene the two of them sensed a few days ago caused their hearts to stir.

Hence, even in the human race's Grand Imperial Capital Region, they moved at full speed to their destination.

But, doing this meant they would naturally pass by mortal cities and the mountains where some sects were located.

It was still fine for the former. The mortal cities naturally wouldn't pose any obstruction to Xu Qing and the captain.

For the latter, after their almighty cultivators sensed Xu Qing and Erniu's speed, their hearts palpitated and they didn't dare to stop them. They pretended not to see them and allowed them to be on their way.

Yet, there were still some who thought they were strong and refused to yield.

Just like this, as Xu Qing and the captain sped, a cold snort rang out from a red mountain range below them.

"Who is it? How dare you treat my Crimson Cloud Sect like nothing? You dare to move above us. Stay here!"

As the voice rang out, a blood mist rose from this mountain range and swept toward the sky, wanting to stop Xu Qing and the captain.

Xu Qing frowned. Just as he was about to speak, the captain beside him suddenly glared and shouted at the incoming blood mist.

"Such guts! This is the lord of the Holy Wave Large Region, the honorary noble of the Flame Moon Grand Mystic Heaven, Heavenly Marquis Xu Qing himself, and his eldest senior brother. Step back!"

The last two words were like thunder that exploded in all directions. Moreover, his voice was incomparably arrogant and he spoke with great familiarity without hesitation. Clearly, the captain had practiced this speech.

He was probably waiting for such an opportunity on the way here.

In an instant, the incoming blood mist paused.

The captain let out a cold snort and continued to move forward. Xu Qing didn't speak and didn't slow down. In an instant, the two of them had already flown past the mountain range and gradually left.

After they left, the blood mist shrank and transformed into a red-haired old man with a bewildered expression. He looked at the horizon hesitantly.

In the end, he didn't dare to continue obstructing them.

Because… the identity mentioned in Erniu's words was extremely prominent!

This Crimson Cloud Ancestor wasn't someone who cultivated in seclusion all year round, so he naturally knew about the matters in the external world. He had heard that a few years ago, the Holy Wave Large Region had appointed a region lord and that the other party had been conferred the title of Heavenly Marquis.

At the same time… after the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race announced the results of their Grand Hunt, he naturally knew that someone from the human race had actually become the Grand Mystic Heaven.

The name of the owner of all the glory was none other than Xu Qing.

"Xu Qing…"

The Crimson Cloud Ancestor fell silent. Regardless of whether the other party was real or fake, he didn't want to stick his head out.

After all, a fake one didn't benefit him, but if it was the real one, he would have to suffer countless hardships. He felt that it wasn't worth it to fight for the sake of mere pride.

Moreover, the other party just sped past without greeting him.

"Isn't it just crossing over? It's not a big deal."

Crimson Cloud coughed and transformed into a blood mist, quickly returning to the mountain range.

Just like that, Xu Qing and the captain flew out of the outer-

rings at the edge of the human race's Grand Imperial Capital Region for a few more days before they finally felt relieved.

On one hand, they felt a sense of security here. On the other hand, according to their previous doubts, if the other party really wanted to make things difficult for them, it was impossible for them to not appear in these few days.

Hence, it was basically certain that the crisis had passed.

At the same time, after these days of journey, they also saw their destination.

It was a huge and ancient teleportation array.

This array formation was the path to the inner ring of the Grand Imperial Capital Region.

Such a strategic place was naturally heavily guarded all year round. Right now, there were over a million soldiers guarding this teleportation array. There was also a Heavenly Marquis with Nihility cultivation base guarding it.

Hence, almost at the instant Xu Qing and the captain flew over, waves of baleful aura rose from all directions. The Heavenly Marquis guarding this place also flew out with a solemn expression and stood in the air.

His eyes were scorching but the moment he saw the person clearly, his expression instantly changed and waves of emotions surged in his heart.

"Xu Qing!"

This Heavenly Marquis had once sat in the same hall as Xu Qing in the Human Emperor's Palace. When he got to know Xu Qing, he had also heard about the Grand Mystic Heaven. Even though some time had passed, the shock in his heart was still intense.

The honorable name of the Grand Mystic Heaven was extremely illustrious. It was far from what ordinary people could imagine.

That was Flame Moon's highest honor. Countless races had to kneel when they saw him.

The most important thing was that the battle between the human race and Flame Moon's affiliated races ended with a single sentence from the other party.

This aura, status, and identity were the only resplendent stars in the entire human race!

Moreover, the other party was a lord of a region to begin with!

As for his cultivation base, although it was only at the Nihility, he had heard of the battle between the other party and Flame Mystic, the number one heaven's chosen of Flame Moon who could fight with Soul Accumulation.

The result was a crushing victory!

All of this caused this Heavenly Marquis' heart to tremble. His expression immediately turned solemn as he straightened his attitude and cupped his fists.

"Greetings, Heavenly Marquis Xu!"

In the sky, Xu Qing and the captain instantly got close and stood in the air. Their appearance and the Heavenly Marquis' words immediately attracted the attention of the million human cultivators in all directions.

Although not everyone knew of Xu Qing, the term 'Heavenly Marquis Xu' still made some human cultivators think of something. Their expressions instantly changed, revealing excitement and admiration.

They had heard too much about Xu Qing's story over the past few days. It could be said that during this period of time, the person who was discussed the most in the entire Wanggu Continent was Xu Qing!

"So it's Heavenly Marquis Wang."

Xu Qing's gaze swept over and landed on that Heavenly Marquis, smiling slightly.

"I want to use the teleportation array here to head to the Imperial Capital."

Heavenly Marquis Wang immediately nodded.

"Heavenly Marquis Xu has returned. This is the most important matter for the human race. All the teleportation arrays are to be opened for Heavenly Marquis Xu!"

As he spoke, he immediately made arrangements and personally accompanied Xu Qing. He acted as though he was in front of a Heavenly King. He was even extremely polite to Erniu, who was beside Xu Qing.

Erniu felt truly comfortable.

Not long later, under the company of Heavenly Marquis Wang, the teleportation matrix was activated with countless human cultivators in the surroundings excitedly and instinctively peeking at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing bade farewell to Heavenly Marquis Wang and stepped into the transportation matrix with the captain.

As the transportation light shone, the two of them instantly disappeared.

Although he had left, the discussions about Xu Qing outside the teleportation array were boiling.

"That's the number a single heaven's chosen of our human race!!"

"Not only is he so young, but he also has peerless talent. Haha, if I tell others in the future, I'll be able to gain some renown for activating the transportation matrix for Heavenly Marquis Xu."

Heavenly Marquis Wang's gaze landed on the transportation array. He looked at the emptiness inside and listened to the excited words of the surrounding soldiers. He sighed with emotion.

'I'm afraid that the next time we meet, he will have become at least a Heavenly King!'
