Outside Of Time

339 Phoenix Forbidden Ghost Lane (3)

Some were floating, some were crawling on the ground, some were sitting on other ghosts, some were flying in the sky, and some even transformed into countless ghost faces that bit each other. They let out soundless laughter and rushed ahead.

Each of them emitted a fiendish aura and a sense of hunger. After Xu Qing sensed them, he became even more vigilant.

As he moved forward, he also observed the stores on both sides, searching for what he needed.

The entire street seemed lively with ghosts. It was the same inside and outside the stores. The only eerie thing was that it was completely silent.

Xu Qing also didn’t make a sound and floated forward while checking the stores. Suddenly, his mind stirred and he looked ahead.

In front of him, a beast-faced ghost with a large piece of rotting black skin was walking toward him while holding its chin.

A baleful aura spread out from this bizarre entity. From the looks of it, it seemed like it wanted to collide with Xu Qing.

There was no fluctuation in Xu Qing’s eyes. At this moment, the dense anomalous substances spread even more fog around him. As it churned, it transformed into a malevolent ghost face that grinned at the beast-faced ghost. Its eyes revealed greed and desire.

This ghost face was formed by the shadow. Ever since it arrived here, it had wanted to devour the ghosts but Xu Qing wouldn’t allow it.

Hence, it could only restrain itself. Now that one of them was walking toward it, it was pleasantly surprised.

Before Xu Qing could make a move, the ghost face formed by the fog rushed out and opened its mouth to devour the other party.

Its speed was so fast that the beast-faced ghost instantly disappeared without a trace.

The ghost face returned with satisfaction.

Xu Qing glanced at the shadow in the fog. He didn’t bother with it and continued forward.

This scene was just a small interlude. The surrounding ghosts weren’t surprised.

Just like that, Xu Qing continued to wander around the city before he stopped in front of a store.

The items sold in this shop were all kinds of evil poisons.

This type of poison didn’t have physical form and was like fog. There were some that were illusory and were sealed in green ghost heads.

The items in this shop were all ghost heads of various sizes floating in the air. All of them had smiling expressions.

Xu Qing’s gaze swept over. After taking a closer look, he was satisfied.

What he came here to find was this kind of extreme yin and evil poison.

Unless the living possessed a special cultivation art, it would be very difficult to collect this type of poison. Only bizarre entities could come into contact with it.

Xu Qing looked at the shopkeeper.

This shopkeeper looked like a bear. Its lips were red like cinnabar, its eyes were like mirrors, it had long horns on its head and green wings on its back. It had a leopard tail that was more than ten feet long.

It was also observing Xu Qing. After its gaze met Xu Qing’s, it opened its bloody mouth and seemed to be smiling.

Xu Qing calmly grabbed. Immediately, 13 of the hundred or so ghost heads floating in the shop flew over and floated in front of Xu Qing and the shopkeeper.

Xu Qing then took out a small bottle and pushed it over.

The shopkeeper’s tail instantly curled around the small bottle, leaving behind an afterimage. Silently, the small bottle shattered and a bloody smell spread out, revealing a lump of blood.

This lump was the Night Dove cultivators’ heart blood. There were about a few hundred drops in a bottle.

As the shopkeeper brought it to his mouth and savored it happily Xu Qing saw soul shadows appearing in the heart blood.

They were the figures of Night Dove cultivators.

The shopkeeper nodded in satisfaction.

Xu Qing took the ghost heads in front of him and placed them in his storage bag. He then turned and left, continuing to walk on the ghost street. He shuttled through the crowd of bizarre entities and stopped in front of several stores to buy items.

The night was about to pass. Xu Qing searched for a long time and finally found the last item he wanted.

It was in a store that looked like an inn.

There were bodies hanging in the shop. There were bodies of humans, beasts, nonhumans, and illusory figures.

They were all hung on the wall by hooks but they were still alive.

There were candles of various colors burning below which seemed to spread some mysterious intent, causing these living creatures to emit various emotions.

Some were intoxicated, some were angry, some were sad, and some were ecstatic.

It was as though they were in a dream that lasted a lifetime.

What attracted Xu Qing wasn’t these living creatures but the candles below.

This shop sold such candles.

Regarding this item, Xu Qing had seen it in the information he had bought from the sect before he came here. He knew that this was actually a type of poison and its name was very pleasant to the ears. It was called the three lives intoxication and it was extremely expensive.

This was also Xu Qing’s main goal in coming here.

After seeing this, he didn’t hesitate to take out four small bottles and place them in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper of this store was an old man in a yellow robe and he looked quite normal. He looked at the small bottles Xu Qing had taken out and shook his head.

The instant he shook his head, his face changed continuously. First, he became a handsome youth, then an old woman filled with wrinkles. After that, he became a mischievous kid.

Xu Qing frowned. He only had 11 small bottles of heart blood on him and had used five previously.

According to the information he had obtained, four bottles were enough to purchase the three lives intoxication.

After pondering for a moment, Xu Qing took out another one and placed it in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper cast a deep glance at Xu Qing but still shook his head.

Xu Qing’s face, which was hidden by the fog, darkened. After a moment of silence, he took out the last small bottle.
