Outside Of Time
chapter-1302

At this moment, the Purple Moon Repository Gate was in an uproar. The wisp of extreme Yin power that originally existed inside was the seed of the repository gate. It was the Extreme Yin Nether Firefly that resonated with the moon's radiance.

Moreover, Xu Qing had the authority of the Purple Moon. This authority was born from the Red Moon and now, it belonged to him alone. It was also a mark of connection.

Even though the moons were not the same, these circumstances gave him the conditions, making his current actions logical and reasonable.

The instant he sat down, the sound of the Purple Moon Repository Gate overflowed into the sky. The incomparably dense power of extreme Yin from the entire moon surged toward Xu Qing.

After a short period of discomfort, he enjoyed it alone!

Compared to Xu Qing, Tian Mozi, Tuoshi Shan, and Fan Shishuang were like fireflies in terms of absorption methods and total quantity absorbed.

Even for Flame Mystic and Erniu, the former could at most open five gates to absorb, while the latter used the heavenly dog to devour.

If there was no comparison, it would naturally be fine. However, now that the comparison was present, the difference was obvious.

Xu Qing sat on the moon as though he was its master!

Hence… Tian Mozhi and Tuoshi Shan, who were currently advancing, couldn't help but look with shocked expressions. As for Fan Shishuang, who was also absorbing the power of extreme Yin, his breathing turned hurried. He looked at Xu Qing and a sense of absurdity rose in his heart, but he couldn't do anything.

Even Erniu was anxious. On one hand, it was because of his need for the extreme Yin. On the other hand, he felt that in this time's major event, his junior brother was in the limelight more frequently than him…

Compared to the past, the roles had reversed once again.

This made him feel that his dignity as the Eldest Senior Brother had been severely challenged.

Hence, he immediately shouted.

"Junior Brother, my dear Junior Brother… Leave some for me!"

The heavenly dog transformed by Erniu couldn't absorb the extreme Yin. At that moment, he could only shout at Xu Qing. As though he felt that it wasn't enough, Erniu gritted his teeth fiercely and stood up, heading straight for the barrier of the star he was on.

The moment he got close, blood spurted out in large mouthfuls as though it wasn't his. When it landed on the barrier, it instantly dyed it red and froze it.

After that, the heavenly dog above his head charged forward and bit down on the barrier.

With a cracking sound, the barrier collapsed and the captain rushed out, wanting to step onto the moon as well.

However, he didn't have the required conditions. The instant he got close, he was rejected by the moon.

The huge pushing force from the moon caused him to be pushed away every time he got close. It was as though he could only shout again in the storm.

"Junior Brother…"

Xu Qing didn't open his eyes and was immersed in absorbing the extreme Yin. However, he still lifted his right hand and waved it, guiding the captain.

He used himself as the captain's anchor and transformed into an invisible rope that was connected to Erniu.

In the end, although Erniu was still rejected by the moon, he relied on this anchor to absorb the power of extreme Yin.

In order to regain his dignity as the Eldest Senior Brother, Erniu quickly transmitted his voice as he absorbed it.

"Little Qing, let me tell you, I was the first to arrive at the Imperial Palace. Moreover, before the others arrived, I already completed all the arrangements."

"This power of extreme Yin and whatnot is just an appetizer. When the time comes, you'll know my target. That's the main dish."

Xu Qing nodded. The Purple Moon Repository Gate in his body continued to absorb and the power of extreme Yin inside became increasingly dense. The aura of the Heavenly Dao also soared.

Through the crack that was gradually opening in the third repository gate, one could see that the cold power inside was constantly erupting. The Extreme Yin Nether Firefly that was the embryonic form of the Heavenly Dao also became clearer.

Xu Qing's aura also rose!

It was the same for the captain. The two of them were reaping benefits from the moon power. Very soon, the moon started setting, heralding the arrival of the sun.

Their method of absorption by sticking close to the moon caused Fan Shishuang's connection to the extreme Yin power to be cut off. Helpless, he could only grit his teeth fiercely and perform a series of hand seals, manifesting countless flying swords around his body.

These flying swords headed straight for the invisible barrier of the star he was in. There were intense collision sounds. Finally, all the swords gathered together and attacked the same spot on the barrier.

He didn't want to shatter the barrier but only wanted to poke a hole!

This way, he could retain the greatest amount of defense and also absorb some of the Yin power wandering outside through this small hole.

Although only a little extreme Yin power was flowing outside, fortunately, Xu Qing arrived late and Fan Shishuang had absorbed a lot previously. Hence, he didn't need much now.

Compared to him, Tian Mozi and Tuoshi Shan heaved a long sigh of relief. This was because what they needed was the power of the sun, not the extreme Yin…

However, before they could completely relax, Flame Mystic frowned.

She let out a cold snort and actually took a step forward, arriving beside the barrier. She then punched the barrier with the Indestructible Emperor's Fist.

The entire barrier directly shattered into pieces.

Her domineeringness was fully displayed in this punch.

She then headed straight for the sun that had now appeared. However, she was in the same situation as the captain. She didn't have the conditions to step onto the sun.

Hence, the rejection of the sun blocked her out.

However, she was Flame Mystic. Although she was repelled, seeing the two people she despised being able to absorb through this method, she didn't believe she couldn't do it herself.

Even though the repulsive force was terrifying, she continued forward with one punch at a time.

Her punch was indestructible and overbearing. That was her Dao.

Indomitable and unstoppable!

Hence, amidst this deafening rumbling, under the shock of Tian Mozi and Tuoshi Shan, she really approached the sun step by step.

After that, she spread out her five repository gates and revealed her nihility land, transforming into her great world. She used them to press on herself, causing her to sit on… the sun.

This scene made the captain feel sour.

'This Flame Mystic is indeed extraordinary. Although she's still a little inferior to me, she's about the same as Junior Brother.'

Flame Mystic's actions immediately led to some reactions. Tian Mozi was unwilling and took out a small white jade bottle. After opening it, he blew on it.

Starlight emitted from the small bottle. This starlight was different from the starlight of this world. At this moment, when Tian Mozi blew on it, the starlight seemed to have gained spirituality as it headed straight for the barrier ahead.

At the next moment, a portion of the barrier was penetrated, forming a vortex that absorbed the power of the sun drifting outside.

This was also Tuoshi Shan's choice.

Facing competitors like Xu Qing and Flame Mystic, they had no choice and didn't want to complicate matters. Hence, as long as there was residual energy to absorb, they could reluctantly accept the situation.

After all, their goal now was to advance to the Soul Accumulation realm.

As for the exploration of the Imperial Palace, that would have to wait until they advanced.

Everyone seemed to be waiting.

Tian Mozi and the other two's goal was the Soul Accumulation. Hence, within this emperor's tomb, they waited for their opportunity, awaited transcendence, awaited breaking through Nihility, awaited the illusory world becoming corporeal, and awaited the illumination of the great world.

The captain was also waiting, waiting for the opportunity he mentioned.

Others didn't know his goal but Xu Qing had done many major things with the captain, so he could more or less guess it.

Flame Mystic was clearly anticipating as well. It was impossible for her target to be just the Soul Accumulation. For Tian Mozi and the others, the opportunities within the emperor's tomb were significant, but Flame Mystic didn't need these opportunities that much.

In Xu Qing's opinion, everyone here was divided into three levels.

As for himself, wasn't he also waiting?

He was waiting for his Purple Moon divine repository's Heavenly Dao to be completed. He was waiting for the Heavenly Dao that matched the Emperor Sword to appear. He was waiting for the five repository gates to open, and step into Nihility.

He was also anticipating for what he had judged in his mind was the captain's major matter!

Just like that, time drifted by.

As the sun and moon rotated, the auras of Tian Mozi and the other two became increasingly majestic, containing the might of the Soul Accumulation. The captain's eyes also revealed a dark glint, and the madness in them was about to be ignited.

Flame Mystic, who was sitting cross-legged on the sun, had also opened her eyes. What she gazed at wasn't above but below the star.

As for Xu Qing… the Purple Moon divine repository in his body finally emitted a deafening sound that echoed throughout his entire sea of consciousness. The Purple Moon Repository Gate, which had originally opened a crack, was completely opened at this moment!

In the repository gate, the extreme Yin Nether Firefly ascended and the cold air that could freeze time and space erupted.

Three of the five gates were opened!

Xu Qing's aura also skyrocketed at this instant, surpassing what it had been in the past. A chill spread out from his entire body and he seemed to merge with the moon under him.

Right at this moment!

Under the sun and moon, under the canopy, the chimes, the drums, and the nine huge dragons of starlight that surrounded them, on the ground made of skin, on the altar, in the Immortal Emperor's coffin…

There was a heartbeat!

Peng peng!

This heartbeat surpassed the sound of heavenly thunder, and even the creation of heaven and earth seemed difficult to compare with it. This was because the heavens had been tainted by divinity, and the earth had fallen into a divine kingdom.

Hence, the heartbeat was the sound of a god.

If the Immortal Realm was tainted, how could the emperor's corpse… be immune?

As soon as this sound rang out, the Imperial Palace rumbled, affecting the tomb and spreading throughout the starry sky. As it swept through the entire Divine Realm, the opportunity Flame Mystic was anticipating for… had arrived!

Without any hesitation, she rushed out of the sun, and amid the reverberation of that heartbeat, she headed straight toward the enormous and luxurious canopy which exuded a divine aura and covered half of the land!

That was the Immortal Emperor's supreme treasure!

It was also the sky she had prepared for her great world!

What she wanted to form was a super world whose vastness surpassed everything.

This world's nihility land could be molded, but its sky was hard to create.

This was Flame Mystic's target.

For this reason, she even suppressed her killing intent toward Erniu. At that moment, she neared rapidly. Her Indestructible Emperor's Fist rumbled and she utilized all her strength to shake off a star dragon that was charging over.

Under the collapse of the star dragon, she spat out a mouthful of blood. However, her figure didn't stop at all and appeared on the canopy!

The instant she sat down, her five gates opened and nihility land fell. She wanted to refine this canopy in her body and turn it into her Soul Accumulation canopy. From there, she would step into the peak that surpassed everyone.

Such boldness was far from what Tian Mozi and the others could compare to.

And now, there was no one who could stop her choice. At the next instant, the rainbow canopy emitted a supreme intent and began to fuse with her.

The aura of advancement soared into the sky.

From afar, it gazed like a god's flower had bloomed in this Imperial Palace. The flower enveloped the sun and moon and spread to 108 stars. The rainbow roots growing under the flower… were actually connected to the coffin that emitted the heartbeat!

Regardless of whose handiwork lay within that coffin, whose contingency plan it was, or whose rebirth it signified…

The peak she, Flame Mystic, wanted wasn't the Soul Accumulation… but god!
