Outside Of Time

300 Ice and Fire Duo Fiends

The moment the captain and Xu Qing rushed over, the Starfish Race’s patriarch’s voice spread out. He stood up and took a step forward.

The instant his foot landed on the ground, overlapping shadows appeared on his body. It was as though two lumps of illusory vengeful spirits were rising in his body and were released to the left and right.

At the next instant, the Starfish Race’s patriarch’s body directly split into two identical bodies that rushed toward the captain and Xu Qing.

His speed was so fast that he instantly approached Xu Qing. He lifted his right index finger and pressed it on Xu Qing’s glabella.

A mocking smile appeared on his face. As his finger landed, a monstrous might erupted from it. There was also the power of the Golden Core that suppressed the surroundings, causing Xu Qing’s body to tremble. The life fires in his body seemed to be blown by a violent wind and were about to be extinguished.

At this moment, the black iron stick whistled closer and tried to interrupt the Starfish Race’s patriarch. However, the latter flicked it slightly.

The black iron stick was sent flying. There were even some cracks on it. After that, the Starfish Race’s patriarch stomped fiercely on the ground.

The ground rumbled and the shadow that appeared under his feet instantly dissipated.

“That’s it?”

The Starfish Race’s patriarch shook his head and pointed his index finger at Xu Qing’s forehead. Just as his finger was about to land, the Golden Crow behind Xu Qing manifested and sucked fiercely at him.

The Starfish Race’s patriarch’s body paused. He turned a little blurry but he still continued to press his forehead toward Xu Qing’s forehead. However, the moment he pressed it down, the Golden Crow’s flames also ruthlessly swept over.

Xu Qing’s eyes were filled with madness. He didn’t dodge at all and used his head to collide with the finger.

The Golden Crow seemed to have used up a lot of energy as it turned a little dim but it was able to forcefully absorb a trace of qi and blood. Xu Qing’s forehead also collided with the Starfish Race Patriarch’s finger with all his might.

The Starfish Race’s patriarch’s eyes revealed a strange light as his finger broke.

As for Xu Qing, his body was thrown into the distance. The protective barrier from the pendant outside his body prevented him from suffering any injuries. Only the qi and blood in his body churned under the tremors. However, he quickly stood up and stared fixedly at the Starfish Race’s patriarch whose strange expression had turned into surprise.

On the other side, the captain was facing the other body of the Starfish Race’s patriarch. The other party also lifted his finger and pressed between his brows.

However, the captain’s solution was different from Xu Qing’s.

The runic seals in his eyes were instantly undone and the aura of his entire body continued to erupt. Just like Xu Qing, he didn’t dodge and chose to advance instead of retreating.

What was different was that he didn’t use his head to knock into the finger. Instead, he opened his mouth and bit at the other party’s finger with endless madness in his eyes!

All of this took a long time to describe but in reality, it happened at the same time. The Starfish Race’s patriarch split into two bodies and attacked Xu Qing and the captain at the same time.

At the next instant, the Starfish Race’s patriarch’s finger was bitten by the captain. Although it wasn’t bitten off, the teeth bit through its flesh, causing blood to flow out of the finger.

As for the captain, a few of his teeth shattered and he retreated. However, his eyes were still filled with madness. He performed a series of hand seals with both hands and took out a shield. After blocking the power of the Golden Core, he was thrown far away.

“Interesting.” The two bodies of the Starfish Race’s patriarch lowered their heads and looked at their fingers. The two bodies instantly fused together. After they became one again, the injuries on their fingers instantly recovered.

His Golden Core cultivation was fully displayed. Xu Qing’s eyes stung and his entire body was trembling. He felt as though the sun was attacking him but killing intent still rose in his eyes.

The captain was the same. Although he was missing a few teeth, it seemed to be more convenient for him to stick out his tongue and lick his lips. He even had the mood to grin at Xu Qing with a smug expression.

The Starfish Race’s patriarch let out a cold snort and took a step forward, heading straight for the captain. However, after he took less than three steps, his expression suddenly changed.

At this moment, a black color appeared on his finger that had completely healed. It was as though a large amount of poison was spreading throughout his body.

If someone could see into his body, they would see a large number of small black bugs there.

They were crazily biting and devouring the Sea Corpse Race Patriarch’s body, emitting a large amount of anomalous substances and powerful poison.

This was the result of Xu Qing and the captain’s cooperation.

Xu Qing was very clear about the captain’s habit of attacking. After all, the captain bit the statue of the Sea Corpse Race’s Ancestral Corpse Statue and also did the same with the Golden Core Octopus. Hence, when the captain was eating the apple earlier, Xu Qing controlled the little black bugs to go over.

When the captain sensed them, he didn’t care. He allowed those little black bugs to hide between his teeth. Just now, when he bit through the flesh of the finger, the little black bugs successfully entered the patriarch’s body.

The instant the expression of the Starfish Race’s patriarch changed, the captain laughed sinisterly. The madness in his eyes intensified as he rushed toward the other party. Xu Qing was the same.

As he rushed out, the shadow under Xu Qing’s feet spread out and enveloped the surroundings, forming a domain. At the same time, all the lightning runes on the black iron stick erupted. The Golden Crow behind Xu Qing let out a loud cry.

He ignited the life lantern and life fires in his body, and circulated his physical strength to the extreme. He then punched out with all his might at the Starfish Race’s patriarch!

Xu Qing had thrown out everything in this punch. He had gathered the power of his life fires and life lantern, the power of the Golden Crow, and all the eruptions of the 60-odd magic apertures in his body. Everything was gathered on this punch. The instant he threw it out, a storm stirred in the surroundings.

It transformed into a sea of fire that surged into the sky!

That was the fire of the Golden Crow, the fire of the life lantern, as well as the fire of his magic power, life fires, and his fury!

The seals in the captain’s eyes were undone one after another, and gradually, the temperature of the surroundings decreased to an extremely low degree. The ground was frozen, and snowflakes appeared in the surroundings.

These snowflakes emitted an astonishing chill that even surpassed many bizarre entities. It seemed to be able to freeze even senses and will.

In fact, even the sky changed at this moment. An endless cold air towered into the sky from the captain’s body, forming a clear contrast with Xu Qing’s heat.

This fire and ice headed straight for the Starfish Race’s patriarch from two directions and arrived instantly.

The madness in the captain’s eyes intensified. A hand strangely stretched out from his chest!

This hand was an ice hand. It was blue and didn’t look like a human’s hand. It was covered in sharp bone spikes and had a face on its palm.

That face was none other than the captain’s. However, his eyes were closed as though he was in a deep sleep.

The appearance of this hand caused the eyes of the Starfish Race’s patriarch to narrow and he tried to dodge. However, the little black bugs in his body erupted crazily and self-destructed one by one, forming even denser anomalous substances and poison, causing the Starfish Race’s patriarch to involuntarily pause.

The instant he paused, the hand that stretched out from the captain’s chest pressed on the forehead of the Starfish Race’s patriarch.

With a boom, an endless cold erupted. The Starfish Race’s patriarch was directly frozen. In the blink of an eye, Xu Qing’s all-out attack that had stirred up an endless sea of fire enveloped him. He also used this opportunity to take out the calligraphy of the ancestor.

“Light!”

In an instant, the word light from ‘light the nose’ transformed into a green fire that swept toward the Starfish Race’s patriarch with supreme might.

The killing intent in Xu Qing’s eyes was intense. His fist that had all his strength concentrated on it smashed into the frozen body of the Starfish Race’s patriarch.

As the punch landed, cracks instantly appeared on the Starfish Race’s patriarch’s body that was surrounded by flames. The fire from the ancestor was too powerful. As it enveloped him, the sound of burning spread in all directions.

The body of the Starfish Race’s patriarch was burning at a speed visible to the naked eye and was dissipating. However, the strange thing was that there was no fear in his eyes at all. Instead, intense surprise appeared in them.

“The words of a great expert!”

At the next instant, the Starfish Race’s patriarch’s body dissipated. However, the instant his body shattered, a tentacle as thick as an arm stretched out from his collapsed body and ruthlessly lashed out at Xu Qing and the captain.

This force caused the void to collapse like a mirror shattering. The terrifying soul-shattering power engulfed Xu Qing and the captain and they couldn’t help but move back.

At this critical moment, Xu Qing pulled the captain to his side and used the pendant Lord Sixth had given him to block this violent impact. The two of them retreated 1000 feet away and each spat out a mouthful of blood from the injuries to their internal organs. They quickly lifted their heads and looked at the place where the tentacles appeared.

Over there… as the dust dissipated, a figure could be faintly seen walking out step by step.

Silver tentacles danced around the figure. Occasionally, a few of them would rush out of the dust, revealing themselves clearly.

They weren’t tentacles but thick worms. They revealed their sharp teeth and let out sinister cries at Xu Qing and the captain!

Very soon, the figure in the dust completely walked out and was reflected in Xu Qing and the captain’s eyes!

This was a nonhuman with a body that was more than ten feet tall. Its entire body was silver and it had a triangular head. Its eyes had double pupils and its tongue was very long. Its entire body was covered in waving worms.

As it appeared, a terrifying fluctuation that shook Xu Qing and the captain to the core erupted from its body. Dense divine power spread out, distorting all the space in the surroundings.

This wasn’t a Golden Core but a Nascent Soul!

As its aura erupted, the sky changed color and the wind and clouds churned. Xu Qing and the captain had no choice but to retreat again.

“I didn’t expect to see two good sparrows in this small land. One of them has a level four bizarre entity sealed in his body, while the other has an emperor-level cultivation art, strange abilities, and words of a great expert.”

A cold voice slowly came out from the strange nonhuman’s mouth.

When Xu Qing heard this, his eyes narrowed but he heaved a sigh of relief inwardly. The other party had clearly only seen a portion of him. It didn’t see the life lantern, his shadow, or the purple crystal.

As for the captain at the side, he also heaved a sigh of relief. His thoughts were similar to Xu Qing’s…

By some coincidence, the two sensed that the other seemed to be relieved. They looked at each other.
