Outside Of Time

They were like moths to a flame.

In the eyes of all the spectators, this was the case.

The Human Emperor was the only Ruler of the human race at present. Other than the Sword Holding Emperor, he was the strongest expert. In front of him, regardless of whether it was Nihility or Soul Accumulation, the difference wasn't that significant.

Even though Bai Xiaozhuo had burned the heart from the Divine Realm and his Divine Fusion body in exchange for the power of flames that surpassed sparks.

However, in the end, he still couldn't achieve indestructibility, nor could he truly ignite the divine fire and become a god.

Without becoming a god, it was impossible for him to contend with the Ruler.

Therefore, the outcome of this battle was already predetermined.

However, Bai Xiaozhuo remained steadfast, with clarity in his eyes and calmness in his heart, his speed increasing more and more.

He swept up the heavenlyfates and spider lilies, carrying the golden-red sea of fire as he tore through the sky.

Even though it was only the projection of the Human Emperor in the sky of the Imperial Academy, it seemed that for Bai Xiaozhuo at this moment, illusion and reality were all the same.

In an instant, his aura formed a dazzling light.

Like a shooting star descending from the nine heavens, he rapidly approached, tearing through the void, appearing before the Human Emperor. His hands came together, palms merging, as he formed a sword with two fingers.

He gathered all the power inside and outside his body into the two-finger sword.

It included the golden and red twin flames in the surroundings, the heavenlyfate flowers and the spider lilies, as well as his life, his time, and everything about him.

Closer to the Human Emperor.

Waves of heat spread out and the surroundings burned. The world distorted, giving off the feeling that the palace's projection was also corroded by raging flames.

The Heavenly Kings under the Human Emperor lifted their heads and their auras spread out. Just as they were about to walk out, they were stopped by the Human Emperor.

"Interesting."

The Human Emperor spoke calmly. He lifted his right hand and pointed his index finger gently at the sea of fire and meteor that were rushing over.

His action looked very ordinary, as though it didn't contain any cultivation power or manifest any powers.

However, the instant it landed and came into contact with Bai Xiaozhuo's sword, the world rumbled, emitting a deafening explosion.

It was as though countless stars had exploded at the same time!

The fluctuations caused the Imperial Academy to sway so violently that it looked like it would collapse.

The thunderous explosion caused a sudden change in the weather. The sky instantly darkened, with dark clouds churning and thunder resounding. An indescribable sense of terror spread in all directions.

As for the source of all the terrifying power, the Human Emperor and Bai Xiaozhuo's bodies didn't change at all.

Only the corner of the imperial robe swayed slightly, and a few strands of hair fluttered back as though they were blown by a breeze.

That was all.

As for Bai Xiaozhuo, his body trembled violently. His already blurry body was like dandelions that were drifting away, gradually disappearing.

However, his eyes were still very bright. He stared at the Human Emperor who was inches away and mumbled.

"Between the fate and lilies, the flames of god."

The heavenfate flowers that surrounded him instantly bloomed again. When they reached their limit, they withered and turned into ashes that gathered in front of Bai Xiaozhuo.

It was the same for the spider lilies. They shone brightly until they turned into ashes.

There was also the golden-red sea of fire that churned and gathered from the surroundings. In the end, it surged in front of Bai Xiaozhuo and there was nothing left outside.

Under these convergences, a mystical flower that fused the characteristics of the heavenlyfate and the spider lilies bloomed in front of Bai Xiaozhuo.

This flower burned brightly.

Immediately after, Bai Xiaozhuo let out a soft breath.

He exhaled and blew on the mystical flower. The flower drifted and its petals surrounded the Human Emperor, as though they were about to form a new flower with him as the core.

A dark glint appeared in the Human Emperor's eyes as he calmly spoke.

"Disappear."

At his word, all the petals around him trembled and collapsed, turning into countless fragments, ultimately becoming ashes in the wind.

As for Bai Xiaozhuo, he seemed to have completed all his missions and closed his eyes.

His body… completely dissipated into smoke, turning into countless mirror shards that contained memories. They shattered, dissipated, and turned into ashes.

As though he didn't want the dirty ashes to taint him, the moment the Human Emperor retracted his finger, he waved his sleeve slightly.

In an instant, the ashes that had gradually become indistinct in front of him were dispersed in all directions, leaving no trace behind.

A deep sigh rang out from the crack in the sky that came from the Divine Realm. After that, the mark in the sky began to heal, and it seemed that everything had come to an end.

Bai Xiaozhuo was the original Fenghai County Governor who had followed Crown Prince Purple Green during the era of the Purple Green Kingdom. His history had been buried in the passage of time. Now, it seemed his life had also returned to destiny.

From the start to the end, Crown Prince Purple Green didn't appear.

The sky outside was no longer dark, as the lingering light of the setting sun bathed the entire city in golden hues.

The Great Emperor's face on the Ancient Sovereign Planet glanced at the Imperial Academy with a deep gaze. It was unknown if he was looking at the Human Emperor, Xu Qing, or… an existence that no one noticed outside the gap in the Divine Realm.

Xu Qing's heart also stirred. Looking at the gap in the sky, he thought of the scenes in Fenghai County. Before he came to the Imperial City, he didn't expect to see Bai Xiaozhuo and Purple Green here.

"Bai Xiaozhuo is the first."

"Crow is the second!"

Xu Qing mumbled inwardly.

And at this moment, the students of the academy were still in tumult, their emotions ranging from excitement to complexity, from apprehension to confusion. Various thoughts raced through their minds, differing from person to person.

The Dao discussion of Imperial Academy ended here.

The Human Emperor slowly sat back on the dragon chair and the entire palace's projection gradually blurred.

The Emperor Sword also returned and fused into Xu Qing's body.

After Bai Xiaozhuo's death, his puppets lost their vitality and fell to the ground.

Seeing that everything had truly ended, the Principal had a rueful expression. He was about to announce the end of the Dao discussion.

However, at this moment, Xu Qing suddenly felt intense emotions from the shadow.

"Master… eat… time soul… escape!"The most update n0vels are published on novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

When Xu Qing heard this, he instantly lifted his head. His eyes were pitch-black as the power of the Poison Restriction erupted, forming his divine eye. However, everything was normal in his vision.

The sky was normal, the crack in the sky was normal, and everything in the surroundings was normal.

The shadow had followed Xu Qing for many years and naturally knew what to do. Hence, it instantly fused into Xu Qing's body and gathered outside his eyes, augmenting his eyes like glasses.

Coupled with the power of the divine source and the shadow's ability, a scene that few people saw appeared in Xu Qing's eyes at this moment.

Although it was still a little hazy and not very clear, Xu Qing noticed that… in the crack that was about to completely disappear from the sky, a wisp of soul was merging into it.

To be precise, this might not be a soul but a section of time, and looked like ashes.

This soul was special. If it wasn't for the little shadow locking onto it, Xu Qing wouldn't have been able to see it at all.

It was the time of Bai Xiaozhuo which had been taken away by Crown Prince Purple Green back then.

"The Human Emperor's last wave of his sleeve seemed to be dispersing the ashes. However, from the looks of it now, his action is fishy!"

Xu Qing's eyes suddenly revealed sharpness. However, he knew that this wasn't the time to think about the Human Emperor's actions.

Hence, without any hesitation, the god form outside Xu Qing's body dispersed, transforming into more than 1.3 million soul threads that instantly headed toward the sky.

"Come back here!"

A cold voice rang out from Xu Qing's mouth. His soul threads soared into the sky and arrived at the edge of the crack in the blink of an eye, enveloping the wisp of time soul.

Little Shadow also rapidly spread out.

If it was Bai Xiaozhuo from before, although Little Shadow wanted to eat him, it didn't dare to get close as it knew it didn't have the power to devour him.

It was also this feeling of desire that had been torturing it, and so it had been watching Bai Xiaozhuo from the start. The impulse in its heart had continued to grow stronger as the battle went on.

Right now, it could clearly sense that this time soul was no longer dangerous.

As for the taste, it felt that it would be even more fragrant than before.

It was as though the soul had experienced many calamities and refined all the impurities, leaving just the source essence.

It also corresponded to the saying that the world was a furnace and all living beings were charcoal.

This was used to forge and return to simplicity.

This origin essence could reincarnate into a human or… under a specific environment, reincarnate into a natural god.

Hence, at this moment, Little Shadow was crazy with desire.

Its saliva spread in all directions and together with Xu Qing's million soul threads, it instantly spread through the sky, grabbing fiercely at the time soul..

This scene attracted the attention of everyone from the Imperial Academy and the various forces. They were all surprised.

From the dissipating projection of the palace, the Human Emperor looked over as well.

At that moment, under Xu Qing's control, the million soul threads moved rapidly in the sky, weaving into a huge cage.

This cage was astonishing, sealing off all directions.

Little Shadow worked even harder and spared no expense to stick to the traces formed by the crack in the sky and used its body to block them to prevent the food from escaping.

After doing this, the coldness in Xu Qing's eyes rose. He lifted his right hand and ruthlessly clenched it toward the sky.

Immediately, the soul thread cage shrunk, forming a palm-

sized black sphere that headed straight for Xu Qing and landed in his hand.

Xu Qing grabbed it and didn't even glance at it. He also didn't give the soul any chance to transmit its thoughts. His five fingers exerted strength and clenched again.

With a boom, the million soul threads that had condensed into a ball devoured the time soul crazily.

Little Shadow panicked and rapidly joined in. After taking a few bites, it wanted to continue, but its eating speed was clearly inferior to the soul threads.

In the blink of an eye, the time soul completely dissipated.

The nourishment formed by the power contained in it was astonishing. Xu Qing could clearly sense that his soul threads were splitting and undergoing a transformation under the influence of the source essence.

1,400,000, 1,600,000, 1,800,000… At the next instant, as the soul sphere exploded, 2,000,000 soul threads covered the sky and earth.

As for Xu Qing, he stood under the 2 million soul threads. His long hair and clothes fluttered in the wind, looking like a god or a demon, with an aura that could devour the world.

Bai Xiaozhuo's body and soul were destroyed!

The Human Emperor glanced at Xu Qing. The projection of the palace completely disappeared.

At the same time, in the Imperial Capital's Star-Picking Tower, the State Preceptor who had been staring at the Imperial Academy closed his eyes.
