Outside Of Time
chapter-449

The Diamond Sect's ancestor was very nervous. While he was worried, he discovered that Xu Qing's gaze toward the vortex contained a hint of anticipation.

In the memories of the Diamond Sect's ancestor, Xu Qing had never looked at him like this.

All of this caused the Diamond Sect's ancestor to feel an intense mental struggle.

Finally, lightning appeared in his eyes. After he forced himself to the extreme, he went crazy and wanted to risk it.

Hence, he looked at Xu Qing.

"Master, please give me those mirrors."

Although the Diamond Sect's ancestor's words were transmitted through his divine sense, Xu Qing could clearly sense the determination and madness contained within.

He glanced at the Diamond Sect's ancestor and with a wave of his hand, all the mirrors of various sizes he had obtained from Spirit Venerable Nether Fairy flew out.

The Diamond Sect's ancestor didn't say a word and controlled the black iron stick to fly straight for the mirrors. It instantly pierced through one and with a single breath, a faint blood-curdling scream rang out from the shattered mirror, as though an artifact spirit had been devoured by the Diamond Sect's ancestor.

Xu Qing had checked the mirrors. The so-called artifact spirits weren't complete and could only be considered some consciousness. They were still far from truly becoming an artifact spirit.

After that, it was the second artifact consciousness, third, fourth… In the blink of an eye, the Diamond Sect's ancestor devoured consciousness of 70% of the mirrors. Lightning appeared around his body and his entire person seemed to be about to assimilate with the lightning. He even let out waves of roars.

This scene surprised Xu Qing. He felt that the Diamond Sect's ancestor was indeed risking his life.

In reality, this was already the limit of the Diamond Sect's ancestor. It was very difficult for him to devour more, and he didn't have any confidence in breaking through either.

However, when he sensed that Xu Qing was paying attention to him, the Diamond Sect's ancestor felt that everything was worth it.

At this moment, the vortex where the shadow was fluctuated intensely. Waves of inhuman cries that could shake the soul rang out from it.

Xu Qing focused his gaze.

The Diamond Sect's ancestor fell silent and looked at the remaining mirrors. His breathing was hurried and his eyes were bloodshot. He roared and rushed over.

Even if he couldn't devour them, he had to.

He thought that if he couldn't advance and the shadow succeeded, he would definitely not be valued. If he wasn't valued, he would be bullied by the shadow and he wouldn't be able to resist.

After being powerless to resist, it was easy to be killed in a scheme. Even if he wasn't killed by a scheme, he would still be thrown out by Demon Xu as cannon fodder. If he didn't become cannon fodder, he would be injured or snatched away by the enemies because he was too weak. He would then be killed by Demon Xu with a thought.

If he didn't succeed, he would die. If he succeeded, he would live.

As these thoughts appeared in his mind, the Diamond Sect's ancestor went completely crazy.

The instant he went crazy, it was the same for Little Shadow. An even more terrifying energy fluctuation spread out from the vortex. As the low roars and cries became increasingly intense, a lump of shadow faintly rose from the vortex.

This shadow was square and pitch-black, like a black square pillar.

It slowly rose from the vortex. With every inch it rose, the cries became more sharp. The anomalous substances that surged in from all directions became violent and denser, as though the shadow was struggling with all its might.

This process lasted for a full eight hours. Under the influx of endless anomalous substances, the vortex emitted an earth-shattering boom before it suddenly dissipated.

As it dissipated, a gigantic shadow appeared on the wall. It was extremely clear!

Xu Qing's expression changed.

It was an erect long shadow with circles of gray cloth wrapped around it.

The cloth was stained with some black blood, emitting an ominous and strange feeling.

The shadow seemed to be reflected on the wall but it gave Xu Qing a three-dimensional feeling, like a black coffin!

This was the first time he had such a feeling from the shadow. Previously, when the shadow advanced to the tree shadow, there was no such change.

If the performance of the shadow earlier could be compared to a painting, then the shadow now seemed to be the object in the painting walking out.

Xu Qing could sense this very clearly.

Not only that, but there were also extraordinary fluctuations emitted from the black coffin shadow, like the Golden Core Realm.

What made Xu Qing's eyes shine even brighter was the eyes that suddenly opened on the black coffin.

Countless eyes with vertical pupils were densely packed on the coffin.

It was impossible to count them in a short period. They filled the whole coffin and even more appeared.

When the eyes opened, they revealed extreme coldness. They were actually somewhat similar to the god's eye Xu Qing had seen before.

It was as though all living beings were low-level existences in its eyes, the difference between their life levels was like heaven and earth.

This was especially so for that lofty and condescending attitude, causing Xu Qing's eyes to emit an even colder chill.

"Are you courting death again?"

Xu Qing calmly spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, the coffin shadow suddenly trembled, as though the deep memories of the past had surfaced again, causing its proud posture after the breakthrough to collapse. At the next instant, all the eyes on the coffin instinctively emitted a fawning intent.

"Master… I… obedient…"

"Even after advancing, you are still unable to speak complete words. What's the use of having you!" Xu Qing's expression was calm but his eyes became increasingly cold. His body emitted a purple light and the poison pill in the Third Heavenly Palace also throbbed slightly.

The shadow trembled even more intensely. All its eyes revealed horror and it was so nervous that it stuttered.

"I… strong… useful…"

"What use?" Xu Qing asked.

In that instant, the cloth strips on the shadow fell off and flew toward Xu Qing, floating in front of him.

Xu Qing took a look.

"Taboo… absorb…"

Xu Qing frowned and instinctively looked at the Diamond Sect's ancestor. However, the ancestor had devoured all the mirror artifact spirits and was trembling, unable to translate.

Hence, Xu Qing calmly spoke.

"I don't understand."

The shadow became anxious. As it trembled more and more, it simply separated some of its parts and began to draw. The scene depicted Xu Qing's figure giving an item to a sapling that was kowtowing in front of him.

Xu Qing looked at the scene and remembered.

Back then, he had given a Taboo fragment to the shadow. Now that he looked at the cloth strip again, he was a little surprised.

"After you absorbed the anomalous substances inside the fragment, it became like this?"

The coffin formed by the shadow immediately swayed as though it was shaking its head.

Xu Qing frowned and the shadow came to its senses. It quickly blinked and transmitted its emotions.

"Forgot… Damn Diamond… Yes…"

Xu Qing looked at the gray strip of cloth in front of him and saw that many areas on it were stained with black blood. It gave him the feeling that it was a strip torn off a shroud.

However, there was no stench at all. Instead, it emitted waves of immortal Qi.

This made Xu Qing feel a little strange. After he held it in his hand, his eyes narrowed as he released his grip and looked at his palm.

There were a large number of small wounds there, as though the cloth had thorns.

As for the specific usage, Xu Qing still needed to study it. He kept it and looked at the shadow.

"That's it?"

Seeing that Xu Qing wasn't satisfied, the shadow became nervous and hurriedly sent out fluctuations.

"Fusion… Transformation… Extreme…"

As the shadow spoke, the lid of the coffin suddenly opened with ear-piercing creaking sounds, and revealed a pitch-black interior.

"Master… in…" The shadow tried to curry favor.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and cast a deep glance at the shadow.

After pondering for a moment, he sneered inwardly. Even if the shadow advanced, he was confident in suppressing it, and this time, he wouldn't ignore its rebellion.

He stood up and took a step into the coffin. As he stepped in, the lid of the coffin slowly closed.

The instant it closed fully, the shadow's body trembled and countless eyes closed in unison. In an instant, its body seemed to have turned into liquid and actually caved in, continuously shrinking inward, revealing Xu Qing's body.

However, this body was covered by shadow and was pitch-black.

Xu Qing suddenly opened his eyes, revealing intense shock.

He looked at his body and tested it. His speed was much faster than before. He punched the majestic wall to the side.

The entire wall instantly turned into dust. The remaining force still continued to move forward until a huge hole that was ten thousand feet long appeared in front of Xu Qing.

Xu Qing's mind churned. This wasn't all his strength but just a casual punch.

However, this was something his body couldn't achieve previously.

Xu Qing's breathing hastened slightly as he checked his body.

He could sense that regardless of whether it was his defense, speed, or strength, they had reached an astonishing level.

His body was completely dark even inside. He couldn't see his Heavenly Palaces, his cultivation base, or his magic power. Everything seemed to have disappeared at this instant.

Their disappearance was exchanged for astonishing physical strength.

As Xu Qing pondered, with a thought, the darkness outside his body instantly contracted until his original skin was revealed. The shadow gathered between his brows.

At that place, a black vertical eye formed. The eyeball inside was moving on its own.

"This should be a secret technique after the shadow advanced. It can now fuse with me."

Xu Qing mumbled and performed a series of hand seals. However, he couldn't cast any spells.

"After the fusion, my spells disappeared and I became a pure body-refining cultivator. However, poison can still be used."

"The strength of my physical body gives me the feeling that it surpasses the combat strength of four palaces. It should have reached the level of five palaces. Moreover, it's a pure physical body with five palaces!"

Xu Qing's thoughts were still fluctuating. He could sense that after he left Three Spirits Suppression Mountain, his strength had undergone an earth-shattering transformation.

This was the eruption of all his accumulations.

After sensing his current state again, with a thought from Xu Qing, the black eye between his brows spread throughout his body. After that, it continued to spread out and transformed into a black coffin again.

The lid of the coffin opened and Xu Qing walked out.

With a wave of his hand, dark soul fire appeared and everything was restored. This made Xu Qing even more certain that the technique he obtained after the shadow advanced was a fusion secret technique.

"Not bad!" Xu Qing nodded, his eyes revealing admiration.

Seeing that Xu Qing was satisfied, the shadow became excited.

"Master… I… obedient…"

The shadow hurriedly expressed its stance. This was the knowledge it had learned from the Diamond Sect's ancestor. At this moment, it was very happy and completely relieved. Hence, it looked at the Diamond Sect's ancestor who was still trembling and suffering with disdain.
