Outside Of Time - Chapter 1425
1425 The Approaching Dragon Carriage
….
Outside the Nanhuang Continent, in the depths of the Forbidden Sea.
At the bottom of the pitch-black sea, a huge snake-shaped sea beast was chasing its prey.
Its speed was astonishing. As it opened its mouth and devoured its prey, the sea beast let out a low roar of satisfaction.
The roar was low and echoed at the seabed.
Amidst this sound, Xu Qing’s figure suddenly appeared.
The moment he appeared, his body suddenly swelled up, as though he couldn’t hold on anymore and was about to collapse.
However, at the next instant, as the light of the seals shone on his body, he returned to his original size.
After that, Xu Qing spat out seven to eight mouthfuls of blood and barely managed to steady himself.
His expression was gloomy as he observed his body.
At that moment, his body was covered with numerous cracks, and the immortal silver flowing from within made his appearance shocking.
And the shattered soul, along with the weakness emanating from within, made Xu Qing’s vision blur severely at that moment, causing everything to twist and distort.
The deep sea, in this distortion, seemed to become filled with monstrous specters, revealing their ferocity.
But it was only for a moment; the faintness brought by the feeling of weakness was forcibly suppressed by Xu Qing.
The distortion and confusion also dissipated.
However, the danger hadn’t disappeared yet.
Xu Qing understood that time was extremely precious for him now, so he immediately stimulated the power of the purple crystal within his body, allowing his recovery to fully erupt at that moment.
At the same time, he also took out the fragmented-face’s blood he had obtained back then and swallowed a large mouthful.
He allowed the blood to flow in his body.
Finally, the cracks in his body stopped worsening.
After that, Xu Qing immediately took out the Flame Phoenix’s feather and tried to send a message again.
However, at the next instant, the sound of shattering rang out once again.
His voice transmission was still cut off and couldn’t be transmitted.
“It’s not just a seal. That Ruler must have another supreme treasure that severed all contact with the outside world.”
Xu Qing’s expression was ugly. He knew very well that in this state, it was almost impossible for him to escape.
As for his body, it would break if he were to get hit by a few more attacks from the other party.
“I have to think of a way to escape first. If I can’t… then I have to delay as much as possible!”
After all, this was the inner sea. The greater the commotion, the greater the possibility of others noticing.
As for the seals his master had left behind, they were to protect his soul. If he forcefully broke them… Xu Qing was very clear that his soul would dissipate because it couldn’t withstand the power of the fragmented-face.
At the thought of this, the intense pain from his soul and body caused the coldness that Xu Qing hadn’t experienced in a long time to surface in his entire body again.
He savored this coldness, and fused into the sound again, heading straight in the direction the dragon carriage was arriving from.
“With the help of the dragon carriage, I might have a chance of escaping!”
Almost at the instant Xu Qing disappeared, he heard a sinister voice.
“Erase.”
This word was like a nightmare. The instant it echoed, in the area beyond Xu Qing’s perception range, not only were the sounds erased, but even countless sea beasts disappeared silently.
Xu Qing’s figure reappeared. As he spat out blood, a sinister figure walked over step by step from the void behind him.
With every step he took, the bottom of the sea churned. With every step he took, the rules and laws spread with his thoughts.
It was like heaven was trying to kill someone!
“The laws here tell me that when you killed my son, you also pursued him like this.”
A cold voice rang out.
When it landed in Xu Qing’s ears, it disappeared on its own before he could control it. It became an erased authority that acted on his body.
This caused the cracks on his body to expand again.
The feeling that he was about to collapse grew increasingly intense.
At this critical moment, a piercing light suddenly emitted from Xu Qing’s body. His body transformed into a large sun. Amidst the resplendent light, all the light rapidly gathered and formed a single beam.
With a speed that exceeded his previous speed, he fled far away.
In just an instant, he disappeared without a trace.
“Immortal light?”
Transient Evil emerged at the place where Xu Qing had disappeared. He looked into the distance and shook his head.
“But you are still within my range.”
“However, there is truly too much karma involved with this human…”
“There are actually so many fates. They fluctuate mysteriously, making me feel like a calamity will descend if I kill him.”
In front of Transient Evil, the gigantic and ancient scissors appeared again, cutting off the threads that were emitted from Xu Qing’s form one by one.
Among these strands, there were a few that, at the moment of being cut, elicited a crack from the scissors, intensifying its ancient appearance, and even revealing signs of rust.
Clearly, cutting these strands also bore a cost for this terrifying and mysterious pair of scissors.
“However, at the same time, I can sense that if my authority can erase them, then… the might of my authority will also be greatly nourished.”
“And his body… No wonder my son died because of this.”
“This karma, this body, this opportunity… carry poison thorns. I have to slowly pick them off before I can taste them.”
“This process can’t be rushed, especially since there are some threads that can’t be cut roughly. They need to be specially handled.”
Transient Evil seemed to be in deep thought as he took a step forward. Like a hunter, he put the pressure on his prey.
Tens of thousands of kilometers away, as soon as Xu Qing’s figure appeared, the might of the Ruler behind him descended with a bang.
Xu Qing gritted his teeth and his eyes shone again as he fled.
This light escape art was a divine power from the Profound Sun Immortal Light spell. When using this spell, it could allow one’s speed to reach the extreme, but it required two beams of light.
However, Xu Qing only had one beam of immortal light. It wasn’t enough to support the usage of this divine art.
Hence, he burned his soul threads and borrowed the soul light emitted by the burning soul threads to replace the immortal light and barely cast the light escape art.
This was a desperate move and he couldn’t hold on for too long.
After five to six times, whether it was the surface of the sea or the seabed, Xu Qing seemed to have been enveloped by an inescapable net.
If he couldn’t escape, it would be impossible for him to send a message.
What was even stranger was that Xu Qing felt that his existence was also being erased.
This was because the sea beasts didn’t seem to be able to sense him. Above on the surface of the sea, he saw the nonhuman islands, boats, and even the disciples of the Seven Blood Eyes.
However, they didn’t notice him at all.
There was even a time when Xu Qing emerged on a Seven Blood Eyes’ boat. However, he was clearly standing there but he didn’t seem to be in the same dimension.
They just kept on moving away as though he was invisible.
This scene had caused Xu Qing to turn increasingly gloomy. After he appeared in the deep sea, his soul was extremely dispirited and his feeling of weakness was the same.
However, he gritted his teeth and continued to rush out.
As for his soul threads, after these few times, they had decreased from 50 million to half.
However, even so, he still couldn’t escape the other party’s range. When he emerged again, the pressure of a Ruler instantly enveloped him from behind him.
Fortunately… Xu Qing had also arrived at his destination.
A rumbling sound came from the seabed in front of him. It was the sound of footsteps landing.
This sound, ignoring the erased authority, was arriving closer.
A terrifying pressure and terrifying aura spread crazily at the seabed, causing the Ruler behind Xu Qing to look over.
“It’s actually the Brilliant Heaven God Race’s crown prince’s dragon carriage and corpse servant. No wonder they weren’t within my perception earlier. I only sensed them when I saw them.”
“The crown prince of the Brilliant Heaven God Race…”
“In the ancient records, this crown prince was permitted to transform into the sun while his sister transformed into the moon. The two of them caused the change in day and night.”
“Until Desolate arrived and the siblings died.”
“His servant also died and became a corpse…”
“Is this dragon carriage and corpse the hope you’re looking for?”
Transient Evil calmly spoke.
Xu Qing didn’t say a word. The instant he sensed the dragon carriage, madness emerged in his eyes. With a sway of his body, black flames appeared and the surroundings turned into a sea of fire.
His entire person transformed into a gigantic Golden Crow.
His claws grabbed the musician’s severed hand and he sped toward the giant and the dragon carriage.
Xu Qing was gambling.
He gambled that his Golden Crow and the dragon carriage came from the same source. He gambled that the appearance of the severed hand would implicate the karma even more. He also gambled that… he wouldn’t be too obstructed.
The severed hand also opened its eyes at this moment. As its fingers moved, the Heavenly Voice Welcomes the Moon melody echoed.
