Outside Of Time

657 Considerate God: The Tradition of the Prison Department

“The seal is only half completed.” A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes and he fell silent.

The god’s finger, whose consciousness was no longer blurry, was extremely difficult to deal with. As It struggled, It also sensed that the purple crystal in Xu Qing’s body didn’t seem to be increasing in strength when sealing It.

It reacted immediately.

“Your ability isn’t enough to handle this treasure!”

The consciousness of the god’s finger emitted emotions of surprise. Its struggle instantly became violent and It tried Its best to break free. It could sense that Its consciousness wouldn’t be awake for long because it had been heavily injured many times.

Hence, It wanted to leave this bizarre and terrifying body as soon as possible and flee as far as possible.

However, although the purple crystal couldn’t unleash its true strength because of Xu Qing’s weakness, the sea of purple light emitted by it was still terrifying. No matter how the god’s finger struggled, It was still unable to break out and escape.

As such, the god’s finger became extremely anxious. Under the intense fluctuations of Its consciousness, It became more frustrated and became even crazier. It continued to struggle wildly in Xu Qing’s body.

It looked the same as Xu Qing’s Heavenly Palaces; like a little girl facing a bully. It was just that the god’s finger was even more unyielding and wasn’t willing to submit.

Xu Qing frowned. He could sense that his soul was showing signs of withering as the other party struggled. If this continued and he didn’t let the other party leave, while the purple crystal would be fine, his body and soul would be destroyed.

Xu Qing sighed. He felt that the purple crystal was a little useless.

However, he could understand it. The useless one should be him… After all, this wasn’t sealing the shadow but sealing a god. The difficulty and the amount of power needed were like the difference between heaven and earth.

However, Xu Qing wasn’t willing to let the god’s finger leave just like that.

Hence, a deep shout rang out from his soul.

“My ability is indeed unable to support and control this heavenly fate divine crystal yet, but this isn’t important. What’s important is that if I risk everything, even if I die, I can still seal you!”

“So, don’t force me!”

Xu Qing’s voice was filled with determination.

“Heavenly fate divine crystal?” The consciousness of the god’s finger suddenly paused.

It could sense that what Xu Qing said wasn’t a lie. He could indeed seal It if he sacrificed his life.

“That’s right. When I was born, the luck of the Wanggu Continent gathered and created this heavenly fate item in my body!” Xu Qing explained seriously.

The god’s finger was filled with uncertainty. If it was any other time, It naturally wouldn’t believe this. But now… It couldn’t see through the authenticity.

“Let me leave. I’ll give up on possession. Otherwise, even if you really seal me, your body and soul will be destroyed. Although I will lose my freedom after being sealed, I will still be alive!”

At that moment, the god’s finger didn’t want to think about whether it was true or false. It felt Its consciousness starting to show signs of blurring, so It shouted.

However, he didn’t want this.

Firstly, with his vengeful personality, he couldn’t allow the other party to leave just like that, especially since… this was the god’s finger. No matter how he looked at it, this was a good fortune where opportunities and danger coexisted.

Secondly, he didn’t dare to let the other party leave. Once the other party chose to crush him to death after leaving, Xu Qing knew that he would definitely die.

Moreover, even if It didn’t crush him to death immediately, the other party might find an opportunity to kill him after It left.

At the thought of this, Xu Qing couldn’t let the other party escape.

Also, the purple crystal was his deepest secret. He couldn’t let this secret be exposed.

In addition, Xu Qing could also tell that other than struggling intensely and resisting, this god’s finger seemed to have no other way to hurt him in the half-sealed state.

After a few breaths of silence, he calmly spoke.

“I’ve already said that my ability is still unable to support and control this heavenly fate divine crystal. Before you possessed me, I also told you that there are many messy things in my body.”

“I didn’t want you to come in because I can’t control them!”

“Let me go!!” The consciousness of the god’s finger interrupted Xu Qing’s words. The furious roar grew even louder and as It struggled, Xu Qing’s soul withered even more.

Seeing that he was in danger, Xu Qing made up his mind.

“Shut up. If I had a way to make you leave, I would have released you long ago!”

Xu Qing transmitted his divine consciousness that transformed into a deep shout that echoed in his sea of consciousness, causing the furious roar of the god’s finger to pause for a moment.

“If you don’t let me leave, I’ll make you die. If you die, I’ll be sealed. There will be a day when I have a chance to recover!” The consciousness of the god’s finger struggled again.

“There will be a day when you recover?” Xu Qing sneered.

“You should have sensed it earlier. Are you forgetful or did you deliberately not mention it? It’s fine. Then, you can carefully sense what they are!”

The god source in Xu Qing’s Purple Moon Heavenly Palace was activated. As it spread through his entire sea of consciousness, it also formed a powerful signal mark.

To Xu Qing, this was a familiar action. This wasn’t the first time he had used the Purple Moon as a threat.

Now, he only had to do what he had done to the Spirit Emperor.

However, because this was the Wanggu Continent, Xu Qing didn’t completely transmit the signal. Instead, it enveloped his body. However, as long as he died, the power of the Purple Moon would automatically emit energy fluctuations, causing the Red Moon to instantly sense it.

The consciousness of the god’s finger trembled. After a long time, It gritted Its teeth and spoke.

“The origin of the Crimson Goddess!”

When It had rushed into Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness earlier, Its mind was still in a state of confusion. Although It sensed it, Its instinct was to possess Xu Qing’s soul.

After that, It triggered the purple crystal and was startled awake. Under that terrifying power, all It could think of was to escape.

“Not only can I use the life-bound heavenly fate divine crystal to seal you, but I also have other ways to kill you. When the Crimson Goddess descends, she will definitely devour you. If I die, you won’t be able to survive either!”

The consciousness of the god’s finger felt extreme anxiety and signs of blurriness appeared uncontrollably.

Seeing that it was effective, Xu Qing shouted again.

“There’s also this!” Xu Qing activated the power of the Sixth Palace’s Heavenly Dao. Although the mosasaur was outside, the aura of the Heavenly Dao in the Sixth Heavenly Palace still existed.

“Heavenly Dao!” The consciousness of the god’s finger shook again.

“There’s also this divine curse!” Xu Qing’s Third Heavenly Palace swayed and the Poison Restriction spread out, enveloping the surroundings.

The consciousness of the god’s finger didn’t know what to say anymore. At that moment, Its clarity was rapidly dissipating and the sense of chaos gradually replaced it.

“So, you don’t have to feel aggrieved. I also don’t want you to stay but I can’t do it now. However, this doesn’t mean that I can’t do it in the future,” Xu Qing said calmly.

“I… don’t believe… you…” The consciousness of the god’s finger let out another low roar.

Xu Qing sensed that the other party’s consciousness had begun to blur again. Hence, his voice became a little gentler.

“I can promise you that after my cultivation base increases, I’ll definitely let you leave. In fact, if we get along very well, I can even mold a body for you…”

“You also know that when I was born, the luck of the Wanggu Continent gathered and the heavenly fate transformed into a divine crystal to accompany me. Therefore, your status won’t be humiliated with me. Moreover, I indeed have the qualifications to mold your body in the future.”

“I… I…no…” The god’s consciousness became even more blurry.

Xu Qing’s voice became gentler.

“Stop struggling. If you continue to struggle, even if I die, you will also be devoured. As a god, you should know the pain of being devoured alive by another god. Do you want to become food?”

“No… I…”

“Yes, I know you don’t want to, so don’t struggle. Stay here with me in peace. We still have endless possibilities in the future.”

“Do you want to live or die?” Xu Qing asked in the end.

“Live… I…” The consciousness of the god’s finger emitted a sense of loss.

“I promise you!” Xu Qing’s voice was filled with determination.

“Hurry up and rest. Leave everything to me. I’ll help you.” As Xu Qing’s divine consciousness gently spread out, a gap spread out in his sea of consciousness, opening the Tenth Heavenly Palace that had transformed into D132.

“Go, you’re very familiar with that place. Go and rest…”

The consciousness of the god’s finger became even more confused. It instinctively glanced at D132. That place indeed felt very familiar. Hence, It hesitated a little before slowly moving over until It stopped in front of D132.

“Don’t think too much. You’ll get frustrated if you think too much. Believe me… I’ll mold your body and send you away!” Xu Qing said firmly.

The consciousness of the god’s finger fluctuated a few times before it slowly surged into D132. It went to the place where it had once pierced dozens of cages and transformed into a huge blood-colored finger that gradually fell asleep.

However, just as Xu Qing heaved a sigh of relief, D132 suddenly shook.

The god’s finger transmitted a divine sense.

“Lacking… people…”

“They will come and accompany you very soon,” Xu Qing promised solemnly.

It was dusk in the outside world. Amidst the red sky, Mount Morning Glow, which was some distance away from Xu Qing’s 3,000-foot-tall body, was currently facing a great crisis.

The interior of Mount Morning Glow was filled with oppression. The array formation on the outside distorted intensely and more than ten points were shattering, pierced by black sharp spikes from the outside.

There were countless nonhuman cultivators outside the array formation. All of them had sinister and greedy expressions. Many of them were actually prisoners from the Prison Department.

They had all been summoned over during this period of time and gathered here to attack Mount Morning Glow.

“There must be a lot of treasures on Mount Morning Glow. Now that most of the Sword Holders are at the frontline, there are not many guards here. Fellow Daoists, this is our chance to take revenge!”

“Blow open the array formation, kill your way to the Sword Holding Court, kill the Sword Holders, and snatch this place away. Also, I’m interested in this mountain itself. Everyone, you can try to see if you can blast it open!”

“That’s right. The Morning Glow Province shall no longer have Mount Morning Glow. Only then will it be considered a grand achievement!”

“Don’t worry about being retaliated. The human race of Fenghai County… is destined to be destroyed this time!”

“The Sword Holding Court in other places is also being besieged. Moreover, I have good news for everyone. I have definite news that the two major battlefields in the north and west of Fenghai County are in a critical state and can collapse at any moment!”

“Break the array formation, kill all the Sword Holders, and destroy Mount Morning Glow!”

Waves of demon-like roars continuously echoed outside the array formation. Killing intent surged from these countless nonhuman races.

Booming sounds continued to erupt as streams of spell light, accompanied by some huge magic artifacts, bombarded the array formation on Mount Morning Glow, causing it to distort even more and fluctuate intensely.

As for the dozens of Sword Holders left on Mount Morning Glow, all of their expressions were filled with determination. They looked at the only Nascent Soul Sword Holder in front of them.

“Defend this place to death!” The Nascent Soul Sword Holder looked in the direction of the distant battlefield in Fenghai County and spoke softly.

Although his voice was weak, it carried determination.
