Outside Of Time
chapter-387

"Domain?" Xu Qing revealed a look of contemplation. He glanced at the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect's fleet that was gradually disappearing.

This wasn't the first time Xu Qing had heard this term. Back then, the princess of the Sea Corpse Race had mentioned that her father, the king of the Sea Corpse Race, had comprehended a domain.

"Comprehension?" Xu Qing mumbled inwardly. While he engraved this matter in his mind, he also silently blessed Li Zimei.

In the following period of time, everything went smoothly. Xu Qing's cultivation was as usual. More than a month later, the Spirit Dawn Valley's Special Security Department arrived.

The captain also returned at this moment with a look of satisfaction. Clearly, he had gained a lot from his trip during this period of time. Xu Qing even felt that the captain's skin color seemed to have improved a little.

It was as though… it had undergone molting.

The captain's aura was even sharper than before.

"Finished?" Xu Qing glanced at the captain.

"Yes. Haha, Little Qing, let me tell you. If the two of us fight now, the outcome will be unknown. I've unlocked another seal," the captain said proudly.

Xu Qing didn't reply. Just as the captain was about to continue speaking, the members of the Spirit Dawn Valley's Special Security Department arrived.

The captain knew that Xu Qing didn't like to socialize, so he went over to finish the handover procedures. Very soon, the disciples of the Spirit Dawn Valley stayed here. After the Seven Blood Eyes handed over the flag, they stepped onto the ships and left.

The journey back was much faster than when they arrived. On one hand, there was no need for them to spend time checking the sides of the river carefully; on the other hand, they were now moving with the flow of the river, so the ships that already had speed augmentation formations, became even faster.

Just like that, after some period of time, the majestic city of the Eight Sects Alliance was reflected in the eyes of all the disciples. Every one of their eyes was filled with excitement.

After all, this mission duration had been quite long. However, their harvest was still not small. Not only did their cultivation bases increase, but the anomalous substances in their bodies also decreased greatly. More importantly, they were no longer so unfamiliar with the Wanggu Continent.

Looking at the familiar Seven Blood Eyes, Xu Qing heaved a sigh of relief in his mind. After he returned, he immediately returned to his berth. While continuing to cultivate there, he also checked the little black bugs that had absorbed the immortal jelly.

After sleeping for so long, they finally showed signs of waking up. Xu Qing felt even more anticipation because the auras of these little black bugs were clearly much stronger and more concealed than before.

Xu Qing was also working hard to open his 111th magic aperture and also gathering soul pills.

However, after opening the magic apertures to such an extent, the soul power needed to open any one of them was extremely vast. Ordinary soul pills couldn't support it.

As for the aperture opening pills, they were priceless. Xu Qing searched around but couldn't find even one.

However, the captain brought him good news.

"Xu Qing, I've contacted Wu Jianwu. He's rushing back to the sect from the Phoenix Forbidden. According to my understanding of him, the moment he arrives at the sect, he will teleport to us at all costs."

"I've also inquired very clearly about the place of fortune of the Mystic Nether Sect. That place is indeed as portrayed in the mural. It's open to disciples of other sects, but the fee is extremely expensive; it is five million spirit stones per entry and there is a time limit of three days!"

"The benefits there are too great for those who require souls to cultivate their cultivation arts, so it is extremely important to the Mystic Nether Sect which mainly cultivate with souls. Generally speaking, only heaven's chosen who have three fires and are breaking through to the fourth fire will be willing to go there to break through."

After the captain quickly spoke, he rubbed his hands and his eyes gleamed.

"Little Qing, help me out. I really can't bear to spend these five million spirit stones. It's too expensive. Why don't you go and look for Purple Mystic Fairy? Go and act coy and make her feel good, so that she can waive the fee for us."

The captain egged him on.

"The person Senior Purple Mystic Fairy was looking at back then wasn't me but you, Eldest Senior Brother. You should go." When Xu Qing thought of Purple Mystic Fairy, he felt inexplicably nervous.

"Aiyaya, you silly kid. This is 10 million spirit stones we are talking about. Do you think I don't want to do it? But I can't." The captain anxiously persuaded.

"Little Qing, you have such good conditions, why are you not using them!!"

"You only have a few years of youth. Why are you so stupid?" The captain tried his best to persuade him but Xu Qing didn't respond. He didn't have any thoughts of agreeing to this matter.

His heart ached for the spirit stones as well, but he instinctively rejected the captain's words.

"This world depends on one's cultivation level. No one will say anything about what you did to reach there. Little Qing, you don't have to feel burdened. This is an era where you laugh at the weak but not at those who flatter others."

The captain patted his thigh and sighed. He looked like he would definitely do this without hesitation if he had the same conditions.

"Little Qing, why don't you understand? If I were you, I would already be in the Nascent Soul realm now. The sect would be filled with my descendants. In a few hundred years, even the Alliance would be mine. You have to learn from Old Third."

"If you want to do it, go do it yourself." Xu Qing didn't want to bother with the captain.

The captain pounded his chest and stomped his feet, letting out a long sigh.

"It's fine if you don't want to go. Then lend me some money. No, return my money. You still owe me five million spirit stones!"

Xu Qing glanced at the captain. After weighing each other's combat strength, he closed his eyes and meditated, turning a deaf ear.

The captain was helpless and tried to persuade him again. However, he discovered that Xu Qing had already begun to enter a meditative state, so he could only leave helplessly. His heart ached endlessly for the five million spirit stones he would have to spend.

Just as his heartache lasted for a day, Wu Jianwu arrived.

Ever since the Seven Blood Eyes moved, the only highness who didn't come was Wu Jianwu. He had been in the Phoenix Forbidden during this period of time. If it wasn't for the shocking news from the captain, he wouldn't have returned now.

His return caused some commotion in the Seven Blood Eyes. It wasn't because of the poem he recited when he walked out of the teleportation array and his silver robe, nor was it because of his cultivation energy fluctuations of two life fires.

It was because of the two ferocious beast cubs following him.

These were two small bears that were about the same size as dogs. Their bodies weren't black but golden. The moment they appeared through the teleportation array, their bodies emitted dense divinity.

They emitted an aura comparable to the Perfected Qi Condensation Realm.

They were still young and it was obvious that their intelligence hadn't fully developed. However, they had already reached such a level. It could be imagined that they would be able to reach the Foundation Building realm very soon.

This matter attracted the attention of the sect. These two little bears actually had ancient bloodlines. As soon as they appeared, it caused a commotion in the Fourth Peak's Beast Tamer branch.

If it was in the past, Wu Jianwu would definitely look down on everyone and not let go of this opportunity to show off. However, he had something more important in his mind now. Hence, he sent a voice transmission to the captain and Xu Qing as soon as he arrived.

"Where is the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether's ruins you mentioned?!"

"Also, is it true that it has a poem written by the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether?!!!" Xu Qing could sense Wu Jianwu's excitement through the jade slip.

"Of course it's true!" The captain quickly replied. However, Wu Jianwu still didn't believe him. It was as though he instinctively didn't trust the captain.

It was only after Xu Qing gave an affirmative answer that he believed it. His body trembled in excitement. He didn't need the captain to urge him. Instead, he urged Xu Qing and the captain to bring him over as soon as possible.

Even though he knew that he would have to spend 5 million spirit stones, he agreed without even a frown.

This made the captain feel that he had said too little.

Hence, under Wu Jianwu's urging, the three of them arrived at the Mystic Nether Sect on the day he arrived.

Xu Qing braced himself and came. He told himself that everything was for the sake of forming the fourth ball of life fire. Hence, his expression was solemn as he moved forward very quickly. He wanted to reach the place of fortune as soon as possible without attracting the slightest attention.

Wu Jianwu was also excited and anxious. His speed was also very fast.

Only the captain's heart ached for the spirit stones and he dawdled all the way. However, no matter how slow he was, in the end, he arrived at the entrance of the place of fortune at the back mountain of the Mystic Nether Sect with Xu Qing and Wu Jianwu.

There was a large rock here and an old man, in charge of guarding this place, sat on it.

This old man had a cultivation base of six Heavenly Palaces. He gave off an astonishing aura. He didn't even open his eyes when Xu Qing and the other two arrived.

Seeing that the journey was smooth, Xu Qing heaved a sigh of relief in his mind and quickly paid the spirit stones. Wu Jianwu, who was at the side, did the same.

As for the captain… he let out a long sigh and looked at the sky. Under Xu Qing and Wu Jianwu's gazes, he helplessly stepped forward and paid the spirit stones with extreme heartache.

After the three of them paid the fee, the old man opened his eyes and waved his hand. Immediately, a huge vortex rumbled and appeared in front of the three of them.

A dense soul power fluctuation spread out from the vortex. Xu Qing and Wu Jianwu didn't say a word and were about to step in. However, at that moment… the old man suddenly stood up and bowed to the sky.

"Greetings, Ancestor."

Xu Qing's body trembled and he quickly moved his leg into the vortex, but it was still too late. An elegant and pleasant voice rang out from the sky.

"Kid, don't move. Turn around."

In an instant, Xu Qing couldn't put down his raised foot. He could only brace himself and turn around. He saw the peerless and elegant Purple Mystic Fairy walking over step by step from the sky.

Today, the clothes she wore were different again. She was wearing an embroidered green dress and a phoenix hairpin on her head. Her beautiful hair draped down her shoulders and her body emitted the fragrance of someone who had just finished bathing. Her breathtaking face had a hint of redness, causing her entire person to look peerlessly beautiful.

The smile in his eyes seemed to be able to melt everything.

Just like that night, she walked step by step to Xu Qing, whose entire body was stiff.

Wu Jianwu watched everything in a daze.

As for the captain, he blinked and thought to himself, 'Why did you come only now? Don't tell me you deliberately waited for us to spend money before appearing?'

Just like that, while Wu Jianwu was in a daze and the captain was puzzled, Purple Mystic Fairy gracefully arrived in front of Xu Qing. Her eyes were deep, like bottomless pools of water that could immerse everything.

Her beautiful lips were slightly parted and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a satisfied expression. She then chuckled.

"Little kid, are you so good at making women like you? You even sent a gift. I like your gift very much."

Purple Mystic Fairy's voice was as beautiful as the gentle spring water. At the same time, the magnetism and gentleness contained in it were like a vortex that made one unable to help but approach her.

When Xu Qing heard this, he instantly glanced at the captain from the corner of his eyes.

The captain blinked and looked left and right, as though it had nothing to do with him.
