Outside of Time

As the two of them rushed forward, the spider web grew larger and larger in their eyes, and the dead trees with human faces growing on it became clearer and clearer.

"Junior brother, please slow down. These human-faced trees were transformed by the ancestor emperor's guards who were invaded by the spirit of the gods. They are all sleeping now, and each one has considerable combat power."

"What's particularly amazing is that once they wake up, they will make soul-shattering sounds, and great terror will descend upon their sounds."

The captain spoke quickly, came to Xu Qing's side, and shuttled through the spider web with him.

Xu Qing nodded. He could feel the weirdness of these human-faced trees when he looked at them from a distance. Now that he was closer, he could see them in more detail.

Most of those faces were middle-aged, there were no women among them, they were all men.

Their appearance is similar to that of humans, but their skin color is different, and behind their ears, there are lines of fine lines like fish gills.

In addition, although their eyes are closed, their expressions are distorted, and the strangeness growing all over their bodies is mixed with strong resentment. Together with this expression, they reveal a strong unwillingness.

"Below the gods, we are all ants. They also resisted during their lifetime, but unfortunately..."

The captain sighed and flew through the gaps between the human-faced trees without touching any of them.

The same was true for Xu Qing, until a stick of incense later, under the cover of the wordless heavenly book, the two of them seemed to have lost all sense of existence and successfully passed through this terrifying forest of human faces.

After flying through layers of spider webs, like two mosquitoes, they gradually arrived at the core of this spider web area.

The huge star came into view.

Looking outside the star, the star is completely gray, filled with cracks, and filled with the aura of death. At the same time, one can see huge vortices one after another, slowly moving inside.

That's a storm.

In addition, it can also be seen that there are sixteen huge pits on the surface of the stars regularly.

Each one is shocking.

The moment he saw the deep pit, Xu Qing felt something and thought of the spider god in the shrine he saw at the core of Jiuli.

That god has sixteen legs, which can correspond to these sixteen pits.

As a result, a picture emerged in Xu Qing's mind: a terrifying and huge spider god, perched on this huge gray star, with sixteen legs submerged into the earth, forming sixteen deep pits.

"According to my judgment back then, this place was the habitat of the Lord of the God's Domain. However, unfortunately, as the Lord of the God's Domain left and never returned, signs of dilapidation gradually appeared in this God's Domain."

The captain stared at the star and spoke in a low voice.

"Here, the level of danger is much less."

"However, this place is God's Domain after all, and it is still considered the core, so there are still many dangers."

"But, the more this happens, the greater the benefits will be!"

The captain's eyes showed madness, and he did not forget to remind Xu Qing.

"The way of heaven that is suitable for your Imperial Sword's secret treasure is inside!"

"Junior brother, let's go!"

With that said, the captain flew away first.

Xu Qing's eyes showed determination. Now that he had decided, he did not hesitate any longer and followed the captain into this vast star.

Within the stars, the earth was originally gray and the sky was black, but due to the storm, most of what was seen was hazy.

And the storm that blows here all year round sweeps in all directions, and the roaring and roaring sound is also deafening.

Coming here is like arriving at a deserted place.

Before this, the biggest storm Xu Qing had seen was the green sand desert of the Moon Festival Domain. Until now, stepping onto the stars and entering the storm here, the contrast between them was particularly obvious.

Beyond the green sand desert!

The wind and sand seemed to be the only thing here. It swept across the sky and even fell on them. Xu Qing and the captain felt that it was difficult to move even an inch.

This is no ordinary storm.

This is the remnant of divine magic that contains the aura of the gods, extremely high status, and mixed with royal energy.

It is conceivable that this place must have experienced an earth-shattering battle.

Fortunately, Xu Qing possesses a spiritual state, so after showing his divine origin, he can move forward in the wind and sand. It is obviously not the first time for the captain to come here. He is extremely mysterious, so he can barely act as usual here.

And it seems that he has a route.

In this way, the two of them walked forward in the wind and sand.

Time passed, and soon after seven days passed, the storm became stronger and stronger, and as it continued to approach its destination, the storms here merged into multiple situations.

Even Xu Qing and the captain found it difficult.

What made Xu Qing's heart palpitate even more was that there was a strange heartbeat hidden in every storm that came, as if... there were living beings hidden in the core of the storm.

Xu Qing looked at the captain.

The captain shook his head and said nothing.

After five major storms, when the core vortex of the sixth storm was about to envelope them, the captain led Xu Qing to a crack in the earth.

The moment he got in, Xu Qing didn't find much surprise. There was a cave hidden here.

I don’t know how long this cave has been dug. It is very clever. Hiding in it, you can avoid the storm.

After entering the cave, the captain breathed a sigh of relief and looked around with emotion.

"Nothing has changed much here, little junior brother. We will rest here for three days. According to my calculations, there will be a small cycle of external storms in three days."

"At that point, the storm will be much weakened."

"As for your previous question, I don't have the answer, but in one life, I was involved in the vortex at the core of the storm. Although I didn't die, I lost the memory after I came out. Even now, I can't recall it."

The captain's words made Xu Qing's heart freeze. The more he got to know the captain, the more he could feel the terror in the core of the storm through his words.

So he was silent for a moment, looked around, then looked outside the cave and asked.

"Elder brother, how many times have you been here?"

"This is the third time!" The captain looked careless, as if he didn't care about the previous explanation. He stretched out and smiled, and sat down on a rock wall very skillfully.

Leaning there, he raised three fingers towards Xu Qing.

Xu Qing glanced at the captain with deep meaning. He knew very well that to make the captain still miss him after two failures, he must have great intentions. At the same time, he also thought of the super important things the captain said.

"What is the purpose of this time?"

Xu Qing spoke in a low voice.

The captain blinked, looked around, and finally shook his head.

"Junior brother, I really can't say, just wait... I can only tell you one thing at the moment, that is, Chi Mu's time is nothing compared to this time."

"The reason why I keep thinking about this place is because most of all my preparations were for this place."

"Originally, I thought that it would take another three or five lifetimes before I could have any clues, but with your appearance, little junior brother, things are different."

The captain slapped his thigh, looking a little excited.

Xu Qing was silent and thoughtful.

He knew very well that the captain was not a person who was being mystical. Unless he really couldn't say it for some reason, otherwise, with the captain's character of showing off and liking to see himself shocked, he would probably have spoken out all at once to appreciate his shock. .

"What makes the captain so hesitant must be related to the three gods..."

Xu Qing pondered, and combined with the fact that the three gods had come to explore this place many times in the name of big hunting, as well as the seal of Jiuli Spider God, a bold guess arose in Xu Qing's mind.

"The fourth god?"

Xu Qing's eyes froze and he didn't speak again. He closed his eyes and adjusted his breath to maintain himself in peak condition.

The entire cave slowly became quiet at this moment, with only the howling of the external storm, like a god roaring, venting its anger, sweeping across the earth and affecting the sky.

There are also some whimpering sounds accompanying it, like crying or struggling, sometimes sad and sometimes weird.

These sounds kept coming, reminding Xu Qing of the horror of this place.

And three days passed quickly.

The captain's understanding of this place is very accurate this time, and the rumors from the outside world have indeed been reduced.

Especially after the third day passed, for a moment, it almost completely disappeared and could not be heard at all.

"Time is up!"

The captain's eyes lit up and he rushed out instantly, followed by Xu Qing. The moment he left the cave and came to the outside world, the black sky became clear for the first time, as did the gray earth.

The storm that had filled this place before was gone.

"Only one hour!"

The captain roared, his speed reached its maximum, and it turned into a long rainbow and went away.

Xu Qing was behind, bursting with speed.

The figures of the two people moved forward through the air, taking advantage of the opportunity when the storm here dissipated to run with all their strength.

But an hour will pass quickly after all, and the wind here slowly appears again.

But when the roaring sound gradually became stronger, a strange mountain and a group of statues appeared in front of the two of them.

The mountain is vast and towering into the clouds.

There was a circular hole in the center, and wind and sand whizzed around it and inside the hole, forming an extremely sharp whine.

Melt into the wind, ripple in all directions, and shake the soul.

At the same time, the feeling of antiquity and vicissitudes of life permeated Xu Qing's heart through his gaze at this moment.

At the foot of this mountain of caves, with the mountain as the center, are surrounded by ancient statues.

They have three heads and six arms, looking up at the sky, each holding a giant blade, exuding terrifying pressure.

What caught Xu Qing's attention even more was that there were half-moon marks between the eyebrows of each huge statue.

Even the statues on the edge have a vague posture that feels like kneeling before the sky.

As Xu Qing stared, the captain's voice came from behind him through the wind and sand.

"This is the transformation of the thirty-six princes of the ancestor emperor."

"Before they die, they worship the moon. What they worship is not the moon flame or the red moon, but the oldest moon between heaven and earth. It is invisible and is the yin among yin and yang."

"Some ethnic groups like to call it the Ancestral Moon."

"In addition, this mountain is our destination, the tomb of the ancestor emperor of this star field!"

With that said, the captain swayed and headed straight for the mountain, but after a few steps he noticed that Xu Qing was not coming, so he turned back to look at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing did not move. At this moment, he was standing next to a statue of worshiping the moon, staring at the statue with a strong light in his eyes.

The mosasaurus in his body was sending out fluctuations, as if to remind Xu Qing, and the one that fluctuated the most was his third divine treasure.

The third sacred treasure is related to the moon, and a strong desire is rising at this moment!

Xu Qing instantly realized that this statue was very suitable for the Heavenly Way of the Third Divine Treasure.
