Outside Of Time

Chapter 1236: What Is All?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

All the participants on the other 26 mountain peaks focused their gazes on Xu Qing.

They had killed many people since they started cultivating. However, what happened earlier still caused quite a stir in their hearts.

This was a sealed slaughter and also a poison attack.

Sealed slaughter showed his ruthlessness, and the poison attack showed his viciousness..

This was especially so for the latter…

Xu Qing’s poison shocked everyone. They could sense how terrifying this poison was.

After one’s cultivation reached a certain level, they would gain a high resistance to poison, and were even immune to many types of poison.

Hence, they usually ignored poison.

Today, after seeing this extremely powerful poison with their own eyes, their understanding of poison was refreshed.

“Drawing the anomalous substances here…”

“This poison isn’t an ordinary poison. This is a god’s poison.”

“I’ve heard of a poison that is related to gods. It’s called a divine curse…”

“Only a divine spell can neutralize the divine curse.”

The gazes of the cultivators looking at the ninth mountain more or less revealed some fear. However, at the same time, they couldn’t help but feel greed.

This wasn’t a contradiction.

This was because on the ninth mountain, as Xu Qing sat cross-legged, the forbidden mountains continued to fall around him.

Some of the people who came here to snatch the mountains already owned one or multiple forbidden mountains. After Xu Qing poisoned and killed all the ninth mountain’s cultivators, the forbidden mountains that originally belonged to them became without owners.

Now that they landed, Xu Qing grabbed them all.

There were a total of 22 of them!

In addition to Xu Qing’s original five, there were now 27 shrunken forbidden mountains circling above Xu Qing’s head.

They were densely packed and were connected by lightning, emitting a dense pressure.

It was incomparably eye-catching and tempting.

The current Xu Qing was already equivalent to this forbidden zone in value.

There were only 27 forbidden mountains in the forbidden zone and so many people wanted to fight to the death to snatch them. However, Xu Qing alone had 27…

Which one was easier to obtain, and which one offered greater rewards? Different people had different opinions.

Hence, after a short period of silence, the greed in the many gazes that were looking at Xu Qing grew increasingly intense.

However, before they could find a way to suppress Xu Qing’s poison, they wouldn’t attack him.

The captain and Qiu Quezi also arrived at the ninth mountain and appeared beside Xu Qing.

The captain looked around. He knew that Xu Qing had a history of slaughtering, and he had witnessed them as well.

However, such scenes had decreased recently.

Hence, he was somewhat excited to see it again.

Qiu Quezi, however, was completely shocked. He stood there in a daze for a long time, his heart churning at the stench of blood. When he looked at Xu Qing’s back view, he felt even more reverence.

The Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race was a race that respected the strong to begin with.

In the golden palace in the air, the Flame Moon dignitary also leaned forward and his gaze landed on Xu Qing below.

“I originally thought that this human kid was just a killing star. I didn’t expect… him to be a malignant star!”

“This Grand Hunt has become even more interesting. Those brats from Flame Moon should also be properly stimulated.”

The Flame Moon dignitary smiled and thought of the poison.

“I haven’t seen it before, but from the aura, it comes from the Divine Realm.

This kid’s ruthless to control such a poison.”

While the cultivators from the other peaks were paying attention to the 27 forbidden mountains above Xu Qing’s head, Xu Qing was also counting the forbidden mountains above their heads.

There were few forbidden mountains with the cultivators on the rear nine mountains, while the number of forbidden mountains with the cultivators on the predesignated mountains varied.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes.

The captain understood Xu Qing. At that moment, he noticed Xu Qing’s expression and smiled.

What he had told Qiu Quezi earlier wasn’t the 27 forbidden mountains in this forbidden zone but all the mountains of all the cultivators here!

’A total of 213.’

Xu Qing mumbled inwardly. He could also tell that most of the cultivators here were at the Spirit Repository level. Although there were some at the Nihility Realm, there weren’t many. Moreover, the highest level was at the second stage of the Nihility Realm.

He licked his lips and spoke softly.

“How many hours before the mountains here can be lifted?”

When Qiu Quezi heard this, he immediately replied in a low voice.

“There’s still 26 hours!”

Xu Qing nodded and closed his eyes to wait.

He wasn’t an unreasonable person, and it was Old Master Seventh who taught him this good habit of reasoning.

As for whatever happened after the reasoning, he would be at ease.

Hence, Xu Qing planned to ask everyone if they wanted to leave when the time was up.

Just like that, a day passed.

Throughout the day, the gazes from the other mountain peaks occasionally gathered towards the ninth mountain, especially from those cultivators on the predesignated mountains.

There were also some who seemed to be transmitting their voices to each other.

This scene made Qiu Quezi a little nervous, so he instinctively looked at Erniu.

After discovering that the other party still had a relaxed expression, he felt a little uncertain.

All of this was completely different from what he had imagined.

Even though he knew that the two humans in front of him were very strong, it was obvious that the people here were eyeing the floating forbidden mountains. There was a high chance that they were calling people over.

If this continued, they might not only face these cultivators here.

It was very likely that a true great heaven’s chosen would arrive.

He couldn’t help but remind them.

The captain smiled but didn’t speak.

Xu Qing still had his eyes closed. However, his divine sense swept past his ancient sun and he continued to meditate.

When there were only two hours left, someone chose to attack!

The person who attacked wasn’t a cultivator from any of the mountain peaks here but a figure who rushed over from afar.

His entire body was covered in white scales and the third eye on his forehead revealed his race.

The Baize Race.

His appearance immediately attracted the attention of the cultivators from the other peaks.

“Baize Race’s Tian Lingzi!”

It’s actually him!”

“As one of the famous heaven’s chosen of the Baize Race, I heard that Tian Lingzi’s cultivation speed is astonishing. He reached Nihility in less than 60 years. People say that he will definitely reach the Soul Accumulation realm in the future. He even had the fortune to meet the Heavenly Cloud Great Priest!”

While the hearts of the cultivators here were in turmoil, the aura of the Baize cultivator spread out in the air, forming endless ferocity, causing the sky and earth to change color and the entire world to become darker.

In this darkness, the long marks of laws flowed in his eyes and a huge phantom of a face flickered behind him, alternating between reality and illusion, with reality dominating most of it.

It was the second stage of Nihility, and it was at the peak stage.

Above his head, there were over a hundred forbidden mountains that emitted a terrifying pressure.

Tian Lingzi swept his gaze across before looking towards the ninth mountain with a cold expression.

At the same time, dozens of Baize Race cultivators flew out from the other mountain peaks and arrived beside Tian Lingzi.

After greeting him, they whispered something to him before pointing at Xu Qing.

“The god’s poison can be neutralized by using items related to gods.”

Tian Lingzi calmly spoke. With a raise of his hand, a bronze incense burner appeared above his head.

The ancient incense burner exuded astonishing fluctuations, causing everything around to blur and suppressing the anomalous substances, while the intent of a god became exceedingly apparent.

Clearly, this item was closely related to a god.

As it floated above Tian Lingzi’s head, green smoke curled up from it for a thousand feet before spreading out, cascading down like a waterfall and forming rings of smoke that enveloped Tian Lingzi.

The surrounding Baize Race members all had fanatical expressions as they lowered their heads.

Like a Divine Son, Tian Lingzi calmly walked toward the ninth mountain where Xu Qing was.

The gazes from the other mountain peaks also focused on him.

Under these gazes, Tian Lingzi stepped into the ninth mountain. The poison fog covering the mountain actually couldn’t instantly penetrate the rings of smoke and was blocked outside.

He moved forward in the poison fog.

All the cultivators who saw this scene were shocked. Qiu Quezi was also shocked. He had heard of this person.

Although he was from the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race and had a high status, he had to admit that the other party’s reputation was even greater. He was the heaven’s chosen with the fastest cultivation speed in the Baize Race in the past hundred years.

Hence, he couldn’t help but look at Xu Qing and the captain.

The captain was still relaxed. Although Xu Qing had opened his eyes, the first thing he saw wasn’t Tian Lingzi who was walking over but the incense burner above his head. Finally, he lowered his gaze and looked at Tian Lingzi.

Tian Lingzi’s expression didn’t change at all as he walked over step by step. As he got closer, the pressure from his body became increasingly intense. His aura was like a rainbow, and every step he took caused the mountain peak to tremble.

Wherever he passed, the poison fog in the surroundings would disperse on its own, not affecting him at all.

Killing intent and domineeringness were also revealed on his body.

However, in reality, there were also waves in Tian Lingzi’s heart at this moment. This was because he could clearly sense that this poison fog was even more ferocious than he had imagined. It seemed to have no effect on him but in reality, its invasion persisted.

Moreover, through his perception of the incense burner, he had a premonition that his incense burner could only last for an hour at most. There was a high chance that he wouldn’t be able to stop the poison after that.

‘This divine curse is extraordinary.’

‘But an hour is enough.’

The cold glint in Tian Lingzi’s eyes intensified. At that moment, he was still 3,000 feet away from Xu Qing. He suddenly sped up and his entire person was like a meteor that could destroy the world as he rapidly approached Xu Qing.

Like a hot knife through butter, everything was destroyed. The mountain rumbled and the rocks turned to dust. It was as though all light in the world had disappeared. Only this meteor became the only focus.

Qiu Quezi’s expression changed and the cultivation base in his body rose. The captain yawned. Xu Qing’s expression remained unchanged throughout. He raised his right hand and, looking at the incoming meteor, pointed a finger to his own forehead, hovering three inches away from it.

Instantly, numerous black lines appeared on his forehead, densely packed and varied in thickness, resembling blood vessels converging at this point, intertwining to form a sinister ghostly face.

As his finger hovered in the air, the ghostly face seemed to ignite like a lantern, emitting underworld flames.

From afar, it was as though a ghost lantern had appeared between Xu Qing’s brows!

Tian Lingzi was still 2,700 feet away.

Xu Qing’s finger swiped across and landed on his left shoulder.

At the next moment, black blood vessels rapidly gathered on his shoulder, and a second ghost lantern appeared.

The underworld fire swayed. When Tian Lingzi was 2,300 feet away, Xu Qing’s finger landed on his other shoulder, then his dantian, then his legs. Finally, the place it landed on was his heart.

All the hand seals were completed in an instant.

The seven underworld fire lanterns burned in Xu Qing’s body.

As his aura soared, a curse power spread out from the seven ghost lanterns, transforming into seven sinister ghost faces with different emotions.

It was a taboo art that came from the Ruler Li Zihua, and was mastered by his fourth son. Xu Qjng also simulated and mastered it.

Seven Lanterns Underworld Fire Curse!

This was a curse that would definitely kill!

Xu Qing’s gaze was cold. He looked at Tian Lingzi, who had already appeared too feet away from him with a monstrous aura but a slightly changed expression.

“When the lantern goes out, so does the person..”
