Outside of Time [Webnovel]

735 Purple Mystic Supreme Clarity Lantern (1)

Upon hearing the voice transmission from the Diamond Sect’s ancestor, Xu Qing looked up and glanced at the distant palace, deep in thought. He then turned to look at the captain and noticed the excitement on his face and in his eyes, as if it was about to overflow.

This was different from the madness when he saw treasures in the past.

‘Last time at Nether Fairy’s place, Eldest Senior Brother showed the same expression. He seems to have an intense obsession with taking away female cultivators’ items.’

Xu Qing was surprised and couldn’t help but ask.

When the captain heard this, he smiled proudly.

“You don’t understand. Let me tell you, Little Qing, this is my experience. Female cultivators have the most treasures around them. The more outstanding and beautiful a female cultivator is, the more they are likely to have valuable treasures. Countless people will line up to give them gifts. I saw many similar scenes in my previous lives.”

“Think back to Nether Fairy’s abode. Wasn’t it like this? There were countless treasures.”

The countless treasures in Nether Fairy’s cave abode appeared in Xu Qing’s mind and he deeply agreed.

“I feel ashamed of the act of trying to please those female cultivators by giving them gifts, so I secretly made a vow in the past to help them share the burden of the gifts.”

“Little Qing, what is the most important thing in being a good person? It is kindness and helping others! So our actions are driven by kindness!”

The captain spoke earnestly.

Xu Qing was stunned for a moment. Although he felt a little strange, regardless of whether it was his tone or expression, the captain was very certain. It seemed to make sense.

“You’re still too young. You definitely won’t go wrong by listening to me. I’m your Eldest Senior Brother. How can I trick you?”

The captain patted Xu Qing’s shoulder.

“Let’s go. We still have at least three days. After the third group descends, the Red Moon will probably awaken. We’ll strive to get more good things in these three days. Let’s go and see what treasures are in these palaces first.”

The captain licked his lips and called out to Xu Qing. The two of them held onto the severed arm and moved closer to the phoenix palaces.

Because the Red Moon could wake up at any time, Xu Qing didn’t continue asking and moved forward at full speed.

Just like that, the severed arm moved rapidly on the flesh and blood ground and got closer and closer to the phoenix palaces. A while later, the severed arm suddenly stopped.

Xu Qing and the captain simultaneously felt a sense of danger coming from ahead.

Through the gaps between the fingers of the severed arm, they could see a flesh city wall ahead, encircling the area and creating a boundary between the inside and outside.

The range of the flesh city wall wasn’t small, and it housed nine phoenix palaces.

There were no guardian statues. There weren’t even roars of the mutated beasts here.

“It’s too quiet,” Xu Qing said softly.

“Something is fishy.” The captain nodded.

The two of them looked at each other. Xu Qing immediately gave the shadow an order. In an instant, the shadow under him spread forward to investigate. As for the captain, he raised his hand and directly bit off a finger.

After spitting it out, his finger transformed into a crystal worm and rushed forward rapidly.

Xu Qing wasn’t surprised by this. On the way, he had seen the captain do this many times.

This was their respective scouting techniques. By cooperating with each other, they could search for the source of danger in many directions and avoid danger.

Just like that, time slowly passed. When Xu Qing’s shadow got closer to the city wall outside the phoenix palaces, the worm formed by the captain’s finger had already reached the flesh city wall from another direction.

It leaped over, but in an instant, a purple light flashed.

The crystal worm’s body paused in mid-air and was sliced into several pieces as though an invisible sharp blade had appeared.

The life force of this worm was powerful. Even though it was torn apart, it quickly transformed into individual entities and continued to rush over. However, the arrangements in this area were not ordinary. Soon, the power of the restrictions erupted, instantly reducing the worms to ashes.

The ashes were then dispersed by a rejection force.

This wasn’t the end. After the captain’s worm turned to ashes, there was actually a sealing power that erupted from it, directly enveloping the place where the worm dissipated.

The void twisted, and an eye manifested, only to be instantly suppressed and shattered.

The captain let out a muffled groan and spat out a mouthful of blood, frowning.

“Why is there still a restraining force? Little Qing, this place isn’t simple!”

At that moment, Xu Qing’s scouting also encountered an obstacle. As soon as the shadow touched the flesh and blood city wall, a tragic cry rang out from the shadow. Its body was actually severed.

However, the shadow was relentless. Even when severed, its remaining part on the wall self-destructed immediately, dispersing into numerous fragments, spreading out in all directions, attempting to explore a large area.

However, this action seemed to have triggered a deeper level of restrictions here. In the next moment, the surroundings within the flesh and blood wall became blurred, and a terrifying wave of energy swept out from within, erupting with a resounding boom.

Moreover, a purple light shimmered from within, and wherever it passed, the shadow that had been severed and dispersed into countless fragments emitted a mournful and desperate scream before being completely obliterated.

The light even spread out toward the outside as it traced the shadow back to its origin.

The purple light instantly became resplendent and shot out. There was also a cold intent that invaded the surroundings faster than the purple light.

It descended.

As the purple light enveloped everything before them, turning the world into a dense blackness, both Xu Qing and the captain’s faces turned pale. The darkness swallowed their vision, leaving them momentarily blinded.

Just as the two of them were about to dodge, the purple light suddenly paused and reversed, causing Xu Qing and the captain to see the world in front of them once again as the brightness returned to their eyes.
