Outside Of Time

Chapter 601 The Divine Son Makes A Trip



Xu Qing's words were very natural. It wasn't an order but an instruction from an upper race to a lower race.

The captain was surprised. Xu Qing's words were really ingenious, as though he was a general!

The black-clothed guard's actions of forcing them were originally that of a general. When Xu Qing retaliated, he also acted like a general.

As soon as Xu Qing spoke, the expressions of all the black-clothed guards in the surroundings changed drastically. Lin Yuandong's entire body trembled and his breathing became uncontrollably hurried.

The life lantern in his body had already transformed into a Heavenly Palace and became a part of him. If it was taken out… it would basically destroy a palace and injure him severely. In fact, it would cause irreversible damage to his foundation.

If this happened elsewhere, it would basically be a situation where they wouldn't rest until one of them died.

Ever since he was young, Lin Yuandong had always been a favored son of the heavens regardless of whether it was before or after he became a black-clothed guard. His father held a high position and authority. His aptitude was also astonishing and he rose steadily among the black-clothed guards.

Moreover, his second grade identity also allowed him to possess a noble bloodline in the Holy Wave Race. He stood above most people and had always felt a sense of superiority.

However, today, he felt like he was like a dog that had suffered an extremely great humiliation. Most importantly, the other party had delivered the humiliation with such ease and naturalness that it did not seem to be out of place.

No matter what status he, Lin Yuandong, had in the Holy Wave Race, it was useless in front of the Black Heaven Race. Only if he was from the royal family, would he have some say, but if this person in front of him was really a divine son, even the royal family would be useless.

After all, the Holy Wave Race's existence relied on the Black Heaven Race. Their relationship was not that of equals, but rather a master-subordinate one.

Zhou Xingwu's expression also changed!

He couldn't maintain the coldness from the start. At that moment, his eyes narrowed as he looked at Xu Qing. All kinds of thoughts raced in his heart.

In reality, the monarch's decree didn't require him to invite these two Black Heaven Race members back to the capital. It was his own way of doing things.

However, he didn't expect the other party to speak like this. This formed an irresolvable situation.

It was impossible for him to follow the instructions and take out Lin Yuandong's life lantern. If he did so, he wouldn't be able to gain a foothold in the black-clothed guards in the future and would deeply offend the governor-general.

The governor-general wouldn't dare to anger the Black Heaven Race, but it was still easy for him to punish him.

However, if he didn't listen… it would be very difficult to maintain the situation of him making a strong invitation earlier.

Just as he was feeling troubled, Xu Qing's eyes gleamed coldly as he calmly spoke.

"Hmm?"

Zhou Xingwu frowned. All the black-clothed guards' breathing was hurried as they looked at him.

From what they knew, if the head really took out Lin Yuandong's life lantern because of this sentence, their lives would actually be in the hands of that Black Heaven Race.

Lin Yuandong's eyes were also red as he looked at Zhou Xingwu.

Seeing that the situation had reached this stage, a gentle voice suddenly rang out from afar.

"Lord Divine Son."

As the voice rang out, the king of the Zenith Nation quickly arrived. After bowing respectfully to Xu Qing, he coldly glanced at Zhou Xingwu.

To him, the Black Heaven Race's divine son was naturally real and had to be real no matter what.

That way, it would be true that his son had been blessed and raised to the first grade identity. Hence… no matter what, this matter was true before the Black Heaven Temple came to a conclusion.

Hence, he was naturally extremely unhappy with Zhou Xingwu's actions. However, as the people from the same side, he still had to mediate.

"Lord Divine Son, this life lantern has already been tainted in this kid's body and is dirty. However, I know that there are life lanterns in the Heavenly Wind Country that haven't been assigned. Why don't we change to another one?"

Zhou Xingwu immediately nodded and cupped his fists toward Xu Qing.

"Lord, I'll contact the higher-ups immediately. The moment you step into my Heavenly Wind Country, a life lantern will be presented to you."

Xu Qing's expression was devoid of any expression. However, the more he was like this, the more he gave off an air of dignity.

The captain's face twisted with anger as he bellowed in a low voice.

"Presumptuous. You want my race's divine son to move to retrieve a mere life lantern?!"

Xu Qing praised inwardly. The captain's words silently changed the concept of heading to Heavenly Wind Country.

When the Zenith Nation's ruler heard this, he also looked at Zhou Xingwu and deliberately displayed the displeasure on his face.

Zhou Xingwu sighed inwardly. He knew that it was already impossible for him to forcefully invite the other party to the Heavenly Wind Country unless he really took out Lin Yuandong's life lantern.

Otherwise, if he continued to forcefully invite them like he had done at the start, he would be neglecting the Black Heaven Race. Moreover, the king of the Zenith Nation in front of him would definitely not allow him to do this.

However, he had doubts as to why these two people rejected going to the Heavenly Wind Country. This doubt turned into suspicion.

However, he was very clear that this was something the higher-ups would have to decide, and not something he could meddle in. It would be fine if the other party was fake but if he was real, he wouldn't have a good ending if he meddled in too much.

Hence, he lowered his head and bowed.

"I was negligent. I'll report the matter of the life lantern back to the upper country immediately."

Xu Qing glanced at Lin Yuandong and shook his head.

"I have a lot of life lanterns. I don't lack your Holy Wave Race's. However, this carved blue stone lantern is a little unique. I want this."

As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, Lin Yuandong, who was being stared at by him, trembled. His expression revealed grief and indignation as he clenched his fists tightly. Nervousness, anger, and other emotions rapidly filled his mind but he didn't dare to erupt or refute.

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ He was very clear that if he said anything disrespectful, it wouldn't be as simple as losing his life lantern.

The humiliation of being suppressed by the upper race made his heart feel like it was filled with poisonous fire.

Zhou Xingwu also frowned, and his expression gradually darkened.

The captain secretly swallowed his saliva and thought to himself, 'Xu Qing, you're too crazy. If you force him like this and the other party really makes a move, we'll be finished.'

'Zhang San is right. This Little Qing… is even crazier than me!'

As everyone's hearts raced, Xu Qing walked toward Lin Yuandong.

As he got closer, the pressure represented by the name 'Black Heaven Race' rose intensely in the hearts of every Holy Wave Race cultivator here.

Seeing that Xu Qing had walked up to Lin Yuandong, a cold glint flashed in Zhou Xingwu's eyes as some unknown thoughts brewed in his mind.

Lin Yuandong's forehead glistened with sweat and his body trembled violently, displaying his intense grief, indignation, and grievance. As those emotions threatened to overwhelm him and turn into despair, Xu Qing standing before him suddenly broke into a smile.

This smile instantly dissipated all the oppression here.

As he smiled, Xu Qing gently patted Lin Yuandong's shoulder and spoke gently.

"Don't be afraid, I'm just joking."

Lin Yuandong's body shook and he was dazed.

Xu Qing shook his head and smiled. He then turned and walked toward the location of the True Immortal Ten Guts in the distance.

The captain blinked and immediately followed behind. As for Qing Qiu and Ning Yan, after seeing this scene with their own eyes, their minds stirred and they hurriedly followed behind.

As for the black-clothed guards blocking the way, all of them instinctively moved aside to make way and bowed respectfully to Xu Qing.

As Xu Qing walked further away, the black-clothed guards all exchanged glances and let out a collective sigh of relief with complicated expressions on their faces.

This was especially true for Lin Yuandong, whose breathing was still hurried. His state of mind had instantly reversed from intense nervousness and despair, which actually turned to gratitude towards Xu Qing.

This gratitude contained reverence for Xu Qing's unpredictability.

What was a big shot?

Everyone had a different definition of a big shot. However, at the end of the day, they were someone who could affect your emotions with their joy and anger. If they liked you, you would be relieved. If they were angry, you would be afraid. They could decide your emotions and life and death with a single word.

This was a big shot.

These black-clothed guards looked at the departing Xu Qing and remembered the words their ancestors had told them that the dignity of the Black Heaven Race couldn't be offended.

Before this, they knew about these things but it was different from experiencing it.

After all, the Black Heaven Temple was high and mighty and they couldn't come into contact with it.

However, at that moment, the way they looked at Xu Qing was filled with the same reverence that Lin Yuandong felt.

In the distance, Xu Qing's voice rang out again.

"Zhou Xingwu, I want to see a life lantern before sunset today. Also, what are you guys waiting for? Follow me to the depths of the True Immortal Ten Guts, and the king of the Zenith, you should come too."

The king hurriedly agreed. He was extremely firm in Xu Qing's identity as a member of the Black Heaven Race and had to be firm as well because his son's future glory depended on it.

Xu Qing naturally knew this. This was also the hidden reason why he had blessed Muye previously. Sometimes, the bond of sharing glory and loss could make ordinary people willingly choose to be blind.

"We respect the decree." Zhou Xingwu also lowered his head. He didn't have much pressure on this matter. He only needed to pass the message. It was up to the higher-ups to decide if they should give a life lantern or not.

However, he sighed with emotion at the actions of the Black Heaven Race.

He took out a jade slip and left a message, handing it to his subordinate to teleport back to Heavenly Wind Country. He then led the group of black-clothed guards and caught up to Xu Qing and the other three. Lin Yuandong, among them, worked even harder to protect Xu Qing's surroundings and remain vigilant.

The captain was in high spirits. Occasionally, he would sweep his gaze across the black-clothed guards in the surroundings and then look at the calm Xu Qing. He was extremely excited. He felt that this trip was really satisfying. As a Sword Holder, they were actually making the black-clothed guards guard them and open a path.

'The few subsequent tribulations in the depths of the True Immortal Ten Guts are passable, but the danger is extremely great after the first tribulation is reversed. With these black-clothed guards clearing the way, everything will be much easier.'

Just like that, the group slowly approached the jungle of the True Immortal Ten Guts Tree. This place had changed from before. At this moment, all the fruits had ripened and looked like opened eyes. Under the sunlight, these eyes emitted a dark glint as they coldly looked at everyone who was approaching.

In the distance, the ten huge blackish-brown meandering tree trunks soared into the sky, emitting a terrifying aura. An intense sense of oppression also descended upon the world. Compared to the trees, the people on the ground were like ants.

This True Immortal Ten Guts had a majestic aura that affected everyone's qi and blood, disturbing their minds, causing everyone who got close to it to instinctively feel fear.

"Lord Divine Son, many bizarre entities appear when the True Immortal Ten Guts bloom. Your status is high and supreme, please take care of your divine body and don't enter the depths. If you really need anything, I and Head Zhou Xingwu can help you get them."

The king of the Zenith, who was following behind Xu Qing, looked solemnly into the depths of the True Immortal Ten Guts and spoke in a deep voice.

"What kind of bizarre entity? Tell me." Xu Qing looked into the distance calmly.

Hearing Xu Qing's curiosity, the king of the Zenith Nation cupped his fists and spoke respectfully.

"Lord Divine Son, according to the records of our 36 cities, once every hundred years, when the Dao fruits of the True Immortal Ten Guts are formed and the Ten Guts Trees bloom, there will be temporal and spatial disturbances inside."

"Most people who enter will get lost inside and find it difficult to return. Occasionally, some people force their way out and have described the process of entering different time and space. Some have even claimed to see that Calamity Immortal ascend to immortality with their own eyes."

The king of the Zenith Nation spoke respectfully. He could understand the reason why the divine son didn't know about this. After all, to the Black Heaven Race, who lived in another region, the Holy Wave Region's Great Wilderness East County was just a remote small area.

Even though the other party was knowledgeable, it was reasonable for him not to know the details of this place.

"Other than that, there are curses in the depths. There are even records of great cultivators of Nihility dying there." The king of the Zenith Nation said with a wary expression.
