Outside Of Time

1041 Poison Restriction Divine Curse, Refining the Gaze (4)

“You’re now the fourth.”

“But those who came before you, although they made grand aspirations, had the qualifications to complete them, and indeed accomplished them afterward, none of them were the Master of the Moon Rebel Hall; they all obtained secondary contracts.”

“Because even by passing this stage, one cannot actually become the Master of the Moon Rebel Hall… You’ll understand the reason once you step inside in a moment.”

“You only have half a year. If you can’t complete it in half a year, you can only sign a secondary contract.”

The white-robed old man looked at Xu Qing and pointed at the lake. Immediately, the lake churned and a massive stone gate filled with the aura of antiquity soared up from within.

This stone gate, towering 10,000 feet high, bore the marks of the ages, carrying the traces of the passage of time. It seemed to have arrived from ancient times, manifesting itself in this place.

It didn’t need to be pushed open because there was a gap in the middle that allowed people to enter.

Through the gap, Xu Qing could vaguely see that there seemed to be a hall inside.

Xu Qing was a little hesitant. The white-robed old man’s words reminded him of the captain. Hence, he cupped his fists toward the old man.

“Senior, did the cultivator who came with me also pass?”

“His aspirations are too great and he has reaped the consequences of his own actions.”

The white-robed old man calmly spoke and stomped the ground. Immediately, ripples spread on the surface of the water, revealing dozens of ice sculptures in the depths.

Xu Qing looked below and discovered that there was an additional person inside. It was none other than Eldest Senior Brother.

He maintained his laughing posture, his arrogance extremely obvious.

Xu Qing frowned. This was a little different from what he had expected. Hence, he fell silent and thought of the words that the captain had said before the trial.

Coupled with his understanding of his eldest senior brother, Xu Qing felt that there was a high chance that the captain had done this on purpose. He had deliberately triggered the punishment.

“If you can pass and become the master of the Moon Rebel Hall, you will have the right to pardon all the sealed people here.”

“Now, go in.”

The white-robed old man cast a meaningful glance at Xu Qing. His body slowly sank into the lake and disappeared.

Very soon, only Xu Qing and this massive stone gate were left.

Standing in front of the stone gate, Xu Qing took a deep breath and no longer hesitated. He strolled forward and entered the gap of the stone gate that was like a canyon.

He moved further and further away.

He got nearer and closer to the chamber inside.

This lasted until a beam of light reflected in Xu Qing’s eyes and filled his vision.

At the same time, an uproar broke out in the Moon Rebel Hall again.

Several hours ago, the dazzling light of the highest temple in the Moon Rebel Hall had already attracted the attention of many cultivators. Even two deputy hall masters had arrived.

Now that several hours had passed, as the news spread, many more cultivators had returned to the Moon Rebel Hall to witness this scene.

Discussions rang out everywhere.

The sky was filled with statues. Some of them were even followers of Master Pill Nine. Although they didn’t know that the person who caused all of this was the Master who made them fanatical, this didn’t prevent them from continuing to promote the benevolent name of Pill Nine.

The representative among them was Xu Qing’s neighbor, the burly statue with exposed chest. He led over a thousand of Pill Nine’s hardcore followers and spread them in the crowd, singing praises of Pill Nine.

And just as the Moon Rebel Hall was enjoying such rare liveliness, suddenly, the highest chamber in the sky trembled with a resounding roar, radiating a blinding light that permeated in all directions, exuding a brilliant and glorious aura.

There was also a holy intent rising from within.

This scene instantly attracted the attention of everyone.

“Success?”

“Could it be that… a chamber master is going to appear in the Moon Rebel Hall!!”

“This is too sudden…”

There was an uproar. As everyone on the Moon Rebel Hall’s mountain spoke, anticipation continued to rise.

The statues that filled the sky were all staring at the gate of the highest temple, waiting for it to open.

However, time flowed by. Even after fifteen minutes passed, the light in the highest temple still shone, but its gate was still closed and no one strolled out.

This scene caused the expressions of many old men from the Moon Rebel Hall to dim.

“Is the legend about the Moon Rebel Hall true…”
