Outside Of Time

785 Treading Through the Thorns, Advancing Towards the Throne! (2)
The interplay of hope and despair created a complex mix of ambivalence within the god’s finger’s consciousness, causing immense turmoil. This tidal wave of emotions overwhelmed the resentment It held against Xu Qing.

This was because It understood that the only person who could save It now was Xu Qing.

Hence, It hurriedly agreed with Its divine sense.

The Ancient Spirit Emperor’s huge eye stared at Xu Qing.

The world slowly fell silent.

Only the sound of swallowing and the wind formed by heavy breathing echoed here.

After a moment, the suction force that surrounded Xu Qing dissipated, and the vortex within the underworld river vanished. Amidst the resounding echoes of the earth, the underworld river continued to flow as it had before.

The god’s finger that was floating above Xu Qing’s head lost the restraints and rapidly returned to Xu Qing’s body while trembling.

After experiencing so much, It had narrowly escaped death and was filled with trepidation. Meanwhile, as Xu Qing’s body began to disintegrate and his divine essence diminished, it left no room for It to continue causing trouble and instead brought about a profound sense of weariness.

Its consciousness began to blur and It couldn’t maintain clear thoughts.

At the same time, these experiences caused It to feel an immense sense of danger from the outside world. This feeling was very intense and transformed into a seed that took root in Its mind.

Hence, It instinctively wanted to return to the familiar D132.

The atmosphere there made It feel comfortable. After all, almost all of Its life was spent in D132…

Over there, It felt secure and at peace and slowly fell asleep.

The divine sense of the Ancient Spirit Emperor spread out in all directions.

“I want a remnant god for the next interest!”

“If there’s no remnant god, this world won’t be open to you.”

As his divine sense echoed, soul threads spread out from the evil souls in the sky. They gathered in front of Xu Qing and intertwined into a token.

It was the Spirit Abyss Token Xu Qing had crushed earlier.

“Now, leave!”

The Ancient Spirit Emperor calmly spoke. A vortex gate appeared behind Xu Qing.

Through it, Xu Qing could see the abyss of the Wood Spirit Race.

Xu Qing looked at the vortex and then at the token. Finally, he looked at the huge eye of the Ancient Spirit Emperor that was slowly closing. He was a little surprised.
He originally thought that even if he could leave this time, he would definitely be imprinted with some marks or restrictions.

However, he didn’t expect that the other party didn’t do anything.

‘He disdains to do that to me and isn’t worried that I’ll attract other gods… Coupled with the failure of the Deputy Governor to guide the land of the wicked previously, the Ancient Spirit Emperor should have hidden the Ancient Spirit World to an extremely deep level.’

Xu Qing fell into deep thought and looked around. He suddenly felt that perhaps the place he was at now wasn’t even the Ancient Spirit World from back then.

No one would be able to find the true Ancient Spirit World again.

However, no matter what, Xu Qing still sensed the spirit of the Ancient Spirit Emperor, who had once unified Wanggu. Hence, he lowered his head and bowed respectfully. He took the token with both hands and turned to walk toward the vortex.

Just as he was about to step into the vortex, the divine sense of the Ancient Spirit Emperor echoed with dignity again.

“Seeing that the food you gave me wasn’t bad, human brat, let me remind you.”

“Although the life lanterns in your body allow you to stand out in the low level, they are mixed and aren’t formed by your bloodline. Moreover, each of them contains their own karma. It will be difficult for them to be perfect in the future.”

Xu Qing stopped in his tracks and turned to look at the huge eye of the Ancient Spirit Emperor.

“Your Majesty, is there a way to resolve it?”

“When you deliver the food I want, I can tell you.”

The huge eye no longer transmitted Its divine sense and completely closed.

Xu Qing nodded and fell into deep thought. Eldest Senior Brother had mentioned the issue about the life lanterns before. At this moment, the Ancient Spirit Emperor also said something similar.

Xu Qing fell silent and bowed to the huge eye of the Ancient Spirit Emperor before walking into the vortex.

The vortex rumbled and the sound spread in all directions. At the next instant, as Xu Qing’s figure left, the vortex disappeared from the world.

After Xu Qing disappeared, everything in the entire Ancient Spirit World suddenly turned blurry.

Regardless of whether it was the ground or the sky, all the evil souls, skeletons, and the underworld river shattered like bubbles.

In the end, all the worlds gathered into a bead that fell from the pitch-black void and continued to sink toward the endless Spirit Abyss.

A long time later, at the bottom of the pitch-black Spirit Abyss, a withered hand that was covered in black spots and emitted a stench silently stretched out. It caught the bead and placed it in its mouth, producing the sound of chewing.

A long time later, a sigh of satisfaction echoed.

“Delicious.”

“I hope that next time, that kid will be able to deliver an even more delicious food. Moreover, his body is also delicious… When he grows a little, I can devour him.”

“And that Purple Green… Interesting.”

At that moment, in the Wood Spirit Race’s altar, at the entrance of the Spirit Abyss, a figure was slowly climbing up the endless cliff…

The seriousness of his injuries affected his speed, but the hope of escaping death seemed to have given Xu Qing more strength.

He was approaching the exit bit by bit, returning to the world step by step.

Blood followed his figure and stained the cliff of the Spirit Abyss, forming a bloody trail.

Xu Qing gritted his teeth and climbed while resisting the suction force that spread out from the Spirit Abyss. However, not everything went according to one’s will.

Xu Qing’s consciousness was slowly dissipating.

Even though he didn’t want to, the fatigue in his mind and the weakness in his body gradually arrived like a tide, sweeping into his sea of consciousness and drowning him.

Xu Qing’s vision blurred and the darkness began to invade everything, but before he fell unconscious, he seemed to vaguely see a white figure rapidly approaching from the exit above.
