Outside Of Time
chapter-1392

Their mission was to guard the gate that led to the Abyss.

They could even disregard the emperor's orders.

The Abyss was the hometown of Crimson Goddess and Li Zihua.

That was… the true Wanggu!

It was the battlefield between the Summer Immortal, who had arrived from the Profound Earth back then, and the former Brilliant Heaven God Race.

In that battle, the Summer Immortal won. He sealed the Brilliant Heaven God Race and their God Emperor and even transformed the Wanggu's sky back then into the earth.

Hence, there was this current Wanggu.

Under Wanggu, above the Profound Earth, the place where the Brilliant Heaven God Race was sealed was thereafter defined in the Heavenly Dao as the AByss.

There were a total of nine gates in the Abyss.

The human race was suppressing one gate!

At that moment, light erupted from the Abyss gate, forming a terrifying might that resonated with the light from the imperial capital outside.

A rumbling sound rose into the sky.

Nine cracks appeared on the Abyss gate!

Loud sounds rumbled in the human race's region. Waves of murmurs from the Abyss and unwilling roars spread out from the gate.

They were returning.

They were the true owners of the Wanggu.

They were the Brilliant Heaven God Race!

Violent fluctuations spread out intensely, spreading through the Grand Imperial Capital Region. Endless anomalous substances also spread out crazily from the cracks in the Abyss gate.

From the ground, from the sand, from the rivers, from the mountains.

From within the city, from every brick and tile, from all the food, and from every item!

Ultimately, it rose from all existence, forming wisps of fog that shook the heavens and earth.

The clouds in the sky, infused with this mist, changed color rapidly, becoming alarming red clouds in the blink of an eye. Crimson lightning flashed through, and drops of blood-red rain began to fall from the sky.

An unimaginable and irresistible great terror was forming under the resonance of the two lights.

If they didn't suppress it in time, once the gate to the Abyss was broken open, no matter what the future would be, it was certain that the human race and the nearby large regions would fall into a calamity immediately.

In an instant, the fortune of the human race churned and the world continued to rumble.

Purple Green smiled gently and spoke softly.

"Your Majesty, if you and the five Corpse Gods go to the Abyss and suppress it for fifteen minutes, there's a high chance that the cracks in the Abyss Gate can be healed."

"And I will take my brother with me while you are suppressing the Abyss."

"So, the game is on."

"Your Majesty, what's your choice? Will you choose an individual or the race?"

Purple Green looked at the palace.

The vortex above the palace rumbled, revealing the Empress' eyes.

Three breaths later, the five Human Emperor Corpse Gods surrounding Purple Green suddenly rose into the air and headed straight for the Abyss gate. The vortex in the palace also instantly disappeared.

The Empress took a step forward and walked into the Abyss…

She chose the race.

Seeing this, Crown Prince Purple Green's emotions fluctuated for the first time in this life and laughed.

However, as he smiled, a look of reminiscence appeared in his eyes.

He seemed to recall that in the past, there was also a person who chose the race when faced with a similar choice.

He looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing's expression remained unchanged from beginning to end as he calmly observed everything.

"Brother, the Empress has given up on you. The people around you also seem to have given up on you. No one chose you at this moment."

"So, it's better if you come home with me."

Purple Green's voice was gentle as he raised his hand and grabbed. At the next instant, the fate's hand grabbed at Xu Qing without any obstruction.

The Emperor Sword hummed in Xu Qing's body but Xu Qing didn't respond. He looked at Purple Green and spoke calmly.

"My big brother, the crown prince of the Purple Green Kingdom, over the years, I have gradually developed a question in my mind that I want to ask you… What are you afraid of?"

Xu Qing's voice echoed in all directions and landed in Purple Green's ears. Purple Green was still smiling, and was about to reply.

But at that moment, a roar erupted from a residence in the capital, shaking the heavens and shattering the void. It carried a resolve to sacrifice everything and a madness capable of overturning the very fabric of the universe.

"I'll devour you!"

In the residence, the seal that surrounded Erniu suddenly collapsed. It was directly destroyed by a madness that surged from his body, causing this madness to no longer have any obstructions and shoot into the sky.

The sky turned blue at this moment.

Endless ice sealed the sky and froze the ground.

Countless blue arms appeared in the blue sky, forming a blue vortex.

As it rumbled, the aura of reincarnation and death erupted in the vortex with the sound of seals breaking.

There were also intense panting sounds echoing inside.

It was as though something terrifying was struggling to crawl out from the depths of the vortex!

At the same time, blue snowflakes floated down.

Those snowflakes were formed by blue worms that filled the world.

"Who spoke Little Qing was abandoned? I didn't give up!"

A roar spread throughout the Imperial City. Crown Prince Purple Green lifted his head and his gaze landed.

Since waiting for Purple Green, this was the first time Xu Qing's expression changed. He suddenly turned his head, looking towards the blue vortex, sensing his eldest senior brother's madness and also sensed the aura of the seals being undone.

He immediately spoke.

"Eldest Senior Brother, calm down!"

The sky paused for a moment before an even more intense roar rang out.

"Calm down? At this point, I'm going all out."

Amidst the rumbling, the vortex in the sky spun with even more astonishing force. The sound was earth-shattering but it seemed that the difficulty of forcefully undoing the seals was beyond imagination.

Very soon, amidst this deafening sound, the vortex collapsed. Finally, a rumbling sound rang out, accompanied by a heart-

rending and outraged roar as it dissipated in the sky.

The snowflakes disappeared.

The ice-blue color of the sky was dissipating.

Soon, in the residences of the imperial city, this crazy aura rose again, attempting to erupt again. Booming sounds rang out endlessly, but it still failed.

Once, twice.

The madness was extremely intense.

"Your Eldest Senior Brother seems to be putting on an act."

Purple Green smiled. The hand of fate had already grabbed Xu Qing's body and brought him in front of him.

"It's fine. I won't hurt him today, but I'm a little curious about what you said earlier."

"But what I'm more curious about is that since you're waiting for me, then… what are your preparations?"

Purple Green's gaze landed on Xu Qing, who was enveloped by the hand of fate, and spoke gently.

Xu Qing was still calm.

"When I saw you make a move earlier, I confirmed my thoughts."

Purple Green's expression was gentle and there was even a hint of anticipation in his eyes. He seemed to be very interested in Xu Qing's next words.

"When I was in Fenghai County, I was thinking about a question. How can I kill you?"

Xu Qing also spoke gently.

"Since I don't know your true strength or abilities, I couldn't find an answer for a long time. Unless I become stronger."

"But I never gave up on thinking about this."

"Until I saw an opportunity in the Moon Offering Region."

Xu Qing looked at Purple Green.

"Then, I perfected it in the Flame Moon."

"Last night, I saw you fiddling with time, severing Shopkeeper Zhao's time as well as your own, even intertwining his fate with your own as nourishment."

"Thus, I finally confirmed my inner judgment."

Xu Qing's voice was somewhat hoarse at this moment, like gravel scraping against time, drifting into memories.

"Why did I have a feeling of being complete when I beat the drum earlier? Why did I see a recollection of Peerless City in the Moon Offering Region back then that hadn't appeared in my mind before?"

"Why is it that in my memory, the palm you landed on back then was gentle?"

"And in another memory, your palm was cruel."

"My body was in pieces, just like the stitched rag doll you sent me."

"However, why is it that I don't remember this part before?"

Xu Qing sighed softly and his gaze met Purple Green's.

"Who cut that cruel time and replaced it with a gentler one?"

"If it was the same person, then why would he go on to sew it back together after cutting out the cruelty? This is a very conflicting action."

Purple Green quietly listened without interrupting.

At this moment, he smiled gently and spoke.

"Is it possible that after that person attacked and saw the shattered you, sympathy rose in his heart?"

"So he sewn you up again and gave you a soft memory."

Under the sky and in the air, Purple and Qing looked at each other.

The wind blew over at this moment, lifting their hair. As the hair fluttered, it was like the rag doll that had been placed beside the gate of the high spiritual mansion - swaying in the wind.
