Outside Of Time
chapter-331

A look of surprise appeared in Sima Ru's eyes. Without any hesitation, she detonated her fourth form.

This was the self-destruction of four and a half life fire combat strength. The powerful and loud explosion sent a violent impact in all directions.

With the help of the self-destruction of the fourth form, a black arm bone rushed out of the collapsed fourth form and headed straight for the outside of the Homicide Department!

This arm bone was the core of Sima Ru's clone. At that moment, she already deeply understood how terrifying Xu Qing was. She didn't want to continue fighting and wanted to escape immediately.

The timing she chose was indeed good. The astonishing power of the self-destruction could stop all the pursuit but she had misjudged Xu Qing's strength.

At the next instant, Xu Qing's figure rushed out from the fluctuations of the explosion and got close to the bone in the blink of an eye.

At this critical moment, the arm bone erupted with a piercing black light. Knowing that it couldn't escape, it suddenly turned around and ruthlessly knocked Xu Qing's head.

At the same time, the strange ballad from before echoed from the surrounding void again.

"Beat it lightly with one bone and pry out its two eyeballs."

"You'll be able to open the shell in three hits. Four tongues, come and catch them."

"The five friends are strong and dug in with their six little hands"

The might of this strike surpassed four life fires. However, Xu Qing restrained the thought of displaying the power of his life lantern and took out a jade pendant.

This jade pendant was none other than the Nascent Soul protection Lord Sixth had given him back then.

Although its power was mostly consumed in the battle with the Starfish Race and its might had decreased greatly, it still had some strength left which was more than enough to resist this attack.

In an instant, Sima Ru's bone landed on Xu Qing's defense.

It was like hitting a rock with an egg. The protective barrier rippled and cracks appeared on the arm bone.

A blood-curdling scream rang out. Xu Qing immediately grabbed the bone. The fiendish fire in his body erupted as he refined it with all his might.

Immediately, a large amount of soul power spread out from the bone and fused into Xu Qing's body, forming the power to open his magic aperture. It continuously attacked and opened his 91st magic aperture.

The Golden Crow also arrived to devour. The shadow also pounced over and the black iron stick pierced the bone, absorbing it at the same time.

Mournful cries rang out crazily from the bone. At the next instant, the bone collapsed and turned into ashes. The 92nd magic aperture in Xu Qing's body also successfully opened at this moment!

After that, he looked at the ashes of the bones that scattered in all directions.

There were no longer any energy fluctuations from the ashes but there was a wisp of divine sense.

This divine sense rapidly gathered and formed Sima Ru's white-clothed body at the start. However, at this moment, she was almost translucent and was rapidly disappearing.

She stared at Xu Qing, her eyes revealing shock.

"Your Golden Crow Refines All Life is extraordinary and different from the sect's description!"

"Those cultivators from the seven sects who came here were all deceived by you. You don't have two life fires, but three!"

"Your magic apertures are even more shocking. Each of them has a range of 5,000 feet!"

"Your combat strength isn't four fires but infinitely close to five fires!"

"If you form the fourth life fire in the future, other than not having a life lantern, you'll be the second Saintly Star!!"

"You're too good at hiding. You're the Seven Blood Eyes'… the number one heaven's chosen of this generation!"

When Sima Ru's clone came this time around, she originally thought that it was enough to suppress Xu Qing and take her younger brother away. However, she never expected that the other party had hidden his strength so deeply!

He clearly had the combat strength of five fires and could suppress Sima Ling in an instant. However, he deliberately hid his strength, giving people the illusion that the fight was not so easy and lasted a while before suppressing Sima Ling.

"Is he targeting me? He deliberately did this to lure me here!" At the thought of this, Sima Ru recalled the scene of her being captured and devoured by the other party. She had never been humiliated like this in her life. At this moment, her eyes revealed killing intent.

"I know all your secrets. When my main body comes out of seclusion, I'll come to suppress…"

Xu Qing waved his hand and patted. Sima Ru's divine sense that was about to dissipate instantly collapsed, drowning out her words.

"I'm not the number one heaven's chosen of the Seven Blood Eyes."

Looking at the place where Sima Ru disappeared, Xu Qing muttered.

Huang Yikun's miserable state after he went to the Seventh Peak appeared in his mind.

Actually, forget about outsiders, even he felt that the Seventh Peak was too good at hiding.

For example, the captain.

He had a mysterious and terrifying existence sealed inside him.

Unaware to him, on the Seventh Peak, Old Master Seventh was watching the happenings at Port 176's Homicide Department excitedly.

Behind him, the captain was squatting there with an apple in his hand, eating it one bite at a time.

At the side, the third highness held a fruit basket in his hand and handed one fruit after another to the captain with a smile.

"Second Brother, how did you seduce that girl from the Grand Affairs? Teach your Senior Brother too!"

"I did nothing. Maybe it's because I'm charming." The third highness was all smiles.

"Bullsh*t. No matter how charming you are, can you be as charming as Little Qing? I remember now. Back then, the old man went to the Wanggu Continent. Less than half a year after he returned, you were sent over from the sea with a white token. It has been many years now. At that time, you were only 13 or 14 years old but you were already popular. Your eyes are filled with hatred. Don't tell me you're from the Wanggu Continent? Something major seemed to have happened to the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect back then…"

The captain looked at the third highness with a spurious smile.

The third highness' expression was as calm as ever as he smiled.

"As expected, nothing can be hidden from Eldest Senior Brother. However, I'm really curious. Eldest Senior Brother, how many times have you… re-cultivated?"

The captain blinked and smiled.

"Guess."

The third highness smiled gently and didn't speak anymore. He took out an apple and handed it to the captain. The captain took it and looked at Port 176 as he sighed with emotion.

"This Little Qing really knows how to hide. He already has three fires!! And, I think this kid is still hiding his cards. If I fight with him, I don't know if he'll die, but the thing in my body will definitely wake up. If that day really comes, Master, you can't just save him and ignore me. You have to treat everyone equally. I'm your favorite eldest disciple."

As for the second highness, she didn't pay attention to the battle at all, nor did she care about her fellow disciples or master. She kept communicating with a certain someone through the jade slip with a rare shy expression.

Old Master Seventh glanced at his second disciple.

"This girl, fortune favors fools!"

He then looked at the eldest and youngest. Although he usually scolded them, he still admired his disciples very much in his heart. After all, they were the wolf kings among the wolf kings that he had chosen from countless people after roaming many places.

Any one of them surpassed the other peaks' highnesses by a large extent. This was also his criteria for accepting disciples. He didn't fancy ordinary heaven's chosens.

What made him especially gratified was that he felt that these few disciples had already obtained his true teachings. Just like him, they were good at hiding their sharp edges.

They would never reveal all their trump cards and secrets. Many times, others thought that they had seen through them but in reality, they had only seen the surface.

"There's also the Fourth. He was born with the ability to hide. There's no need to teach him. He's already quite good."

"In this chaotic world filled with unknown dangers and an unpredictable future, we naturally have to hide our cards!"

"Moreover… geniuses that were rarely seen in the past are now appearing one after another. It's not only the human race but all races as well. This is a sign that a great era has arrived. In this great era, there will be huge opportunities as well as great dangers."
