Outside Of Time

413 Blood Performance: Prologue

Old Master Seventh pointed out a path for Xu Qing and asked him to move the god to his mind. Xu Qing did it, except that god had no face.

As such, Xu Qing also pointed out a path for the little mute, asking him to learn the Fiendish Fire Soul Devouring Art and walk the path of slaughter.

He felt that this path was very suitable for the little mute. He had seen the little mute growing with slaughter and cruelty. During these few days when he was protecting the latter, he saw his past self.

The world was ever-changing. Only by cultivating could one have a sense of stability. Moreover, the little mute’s killing nature was very strong. Xu Qing felt that such a person was like him, suitable for cultivating the Fiendish Fire Soul Devouring Art.

!!

The little mute clearly remembered this matter firmly. He always obeyed Xu Qing’s words unconditionally. This was his instinct, his instinct to worship the strong.

After sending the little mute off, Xu Qing didn’t stay idle. He immediately went to the Transportation Department. However… when he arrived, it was already dusk. He saw a female disciple leaving with a flushed face and Zhang San smoking a pipe with a blissful expression.

Xu Qing vaguely remembered seeing that female disciple before. She was an alchemy cultivator from the Second Peak. Back then, she had come with Gu Muqing to look for Zhang San to ask him to escort her.

Although her appearance was ordinary, this female disciple had a good figure. When she saw Xu Qing, she blushed and bowed before leaving in a hurry.

Xu Qing wasn’t curious about Zhang San’s affairs. After he arrived, he was about to speak when Zhang San lifted his head proudly.

“How is it? My charm is still alright, right?”

“Impressive!” Xu Qing nodded and spoke seriously.

Every time he made such an expression, it would be filled with conviction. Regardless of whether it was the captain or his master, they liked it very much.

When Zhang San saw Xu Qing’s expression, he became even happier. He lifted his right hand and extended it toward Xu Qing.

“Take it out. I reckon your magic ship exploded again. Did you see my sense of participation this time?”

Xu Qing recalled and shook his head. After that, he took out the magic ship.

“You still haven’t seen it? That can’t be.” Zhang San was a little anxious. He looked at the magic ship Xu Qing took out and came to a realization.

“So it didn’t completely self-destruct. No wonder. However, Xu Qing, this is the first time you’ve taken back the magic ship intact. That is quite something. Keep it up.” Zhang San laughed and took Xu Qing’s magic ship.

“I can repair your magic ship to the same state as before within three days. However, Xu Qing, you have to speed up and strive to suppress the souls in all your magic apertures. This way, you can form an artifact spirit and advance your magic ship.”

“I have already filled them,” Xu Qing calmly said.

“Ah?” Zhang San was stunned. He also cultivated the Fiendish Fire Soul Devouring Art. He knew that the final suppression required 120 souls. This process required a lot of time and killing. Moreover, the requirement for souls was extremely high. ????????????????????????d. c????m

In his memory, Xu Qing didn’t seem to have formed the fourth life fire for long.

“So soon?”

Xu Qing nodded. The flames on his body dissipated and 120 magic apertures suddenly appeared. Mournful cries rang out from his 120 magic apertures. It was the wails of all the souls he had suppressed.

The eintense resentment spread and transformed into a violent force, causing Zhang San to gasp.

“In that case, three days won’t be enough. I need seven days. After seven days, come to my place and fuse the souls. Let me witness the formation of the magic warship!”

Zhang San’s eyes lit up with excitement as he spoke. He forgot about Xu Qing, and left with the magic ship, starting to think of a plan to forge it.

Xu Qing looked at Zhang San’s back view and cupped his fists, bowing deeply. He then left for the headquarters of the Special Security Department. He had a residence there as well and planned to stay there for seven days.

The Seven Blood Eyes’ Special Security Department was rather busy during this period of time. They mainly cooperated with the security departments of the other sects to carry out some missions of the Alliance in the surroundings.

This also showed that the Seven Blood Eyes had completely integrated into the alliance. There were many joint missions that allowed them to work with the disciples of the various sects . Xu Qing could sense this clearly. For example, there were clearly more disciples from the other sects in the main city.

As for the disciples of the Seven Blood Eyes, they were no longer limited to the main city of the Seven Blood Eyes. Most of them would go to other main cities to purchase things that were not easily available here. Some businessmen even opened shops in the cities of the other sects.

Overall, with the addition of the Seven Blood Eyes, the alliance had become more lively than before and its strength had increased by a lot.

Recent missions were mainly focused in the direction of the Three Spirits Suppression Mountain.

Xu Qing checked the dossier and learned that the Three Spirits Suppression Mountain was much more active than before recently. It seemed that the population of the 137 countries in its range had decreased greatly. Hence, the cultivators of the Three Spirits Suppression Mountain went out to invade new small countries to replenish their population.

This kind of hunting outside their territories would happen every once in a while. The Alliance would pay close attention to it and there would occasionally be friction.

It was unknown what he was busy with, but the captain had disappeared along with Wu Jianwu. These two people seemed to be colluding and doing something major.

Xu Qing glanced in the direction of the Mystic Nether Sect. He hesitated for a moment before retracting his gaze.

There was a portion of disciples from the Special Security Department who were going out to patrol the river. Xu Qing and the captain didn’t participate. This group was led by several old two-fire Foundation Building disciples from the Fifth Peak.

Hence, the number of people in the Seven Blood Eyes’ Special Security Department was fewer than before and looked somewhat empty.

Xu Qing liked this silence. Looking at the empty Special Security Department, he felt that it wasn’t bad. While he meditated in his residence, he was also thinking about the 121st magic aperture.

“It can only be found between life and death…” Xu Qing pondered. He had a plan in mind for finding the 121st magic aperture. He had thought of this plan on his way back.

Right now, it was still in its infancy. He needed to carefully weigh the feasibility of this plan.

“I might need the Seven Blood Eyes’ Taboo magic treasure’s help…”

Xu Qing pondered for a moment. On the way back, Old Master Seventh had mentioned that the Seven Blood Eyes’ Taboo magic treasure had an effect on illuminating magic apertures. Xu Qing planned to go to the place of Taboo to give it a try after seven days.

However, his plan to open the 121st magic aperture contained a certain level of danger.

Xu Qing was a little hesitant. Should he really carry out this plan?

“I’ll decide after I look at the Taboo.”

Xu Qing made a decision. Regarding the 121st magic aperture, Xu Qing felt that it would naturally be best if he could open it. If he couldn’t do it, he could accept it as well.

Hence, in the next few days, other than cultivating, he perfected the plan to open the 121st magic aperture and analyzed every step.

At dusk on the seventh day, Xu Qing received a voice transmission from Zhang San, informing him that the magic ship had been repaired.

Xu Qing kept the voice transmission jade slip and walked out of the Special Security Department.

“Tomorrow, I’ll go to the location of the sect’s Taboo.” Xu Qing decided. After he left, he looked at the sky.

This dusk was very similar to a certain day in the past. It was filled with red clouds, causing the entire sky to look red. The remnant face of the high and mighty god was also illuminated by a red light.

It was like a blood light.

Xu Qing retracted his gaze.

...

For some reason, he felt a faint sense of fear and trepidation. This feeling had never appeared before and it appeared for the first time today, causing him to feel inexplicably uneasy.

However, he couldn’t find the source of the uneasiness.

Xu Qing silently headed straight for the Transportation Department. Very soon, he saw his faceless magic ship.

Its appearance was no different from before, but there were still slight differences. The divinity was clearly denser, and there were many special array runes engraved inside the magic ship.

“These are all prepared to allow the artifact spirit you form to better augment the magic warship. I won’t go into details too much. Now, fuse the suppressed souls in the 120 magic apertures in your body into this ship according to the method of the Fiendish Fire Soul Devouring Art!”

Xu Qing took a deep breath and didn’t hesitate. The 120 magic apertures in his body instantly opened, like 120 volcanoes erupting in his body.

As magic power rose, flames surged into the sky and the temperature of the surroundings instantly rose to an extremely high degree.

The ground cracked and the surroundings distorted. Zhang San took a deep breath and quickly retreated, but he was still a little frightened.

The pressure Xu Qing emitted at this moment caused his mind to be unstable. His breathing was hurried and his eyes stung.

“Too strong!!”

As Zhang San’s thoughts churned, Xu Qing suddenly lifted his head. He performed a series of hand seals with both hands and the seals kept on becoming faster and faster.

...

With the help of the seals, he followed the method of the Fiendish Fire Soul Devouring Art and gradually extracted half of the souls suppressed in the 120 magic apertures in his body, scattering them outside his body, forming a huge soul shadow.

This soul shadow had a sinister expression and a large number of faces appeared on its body. Mournful cries rang out from it and resentment filled the surroundings.

Xu Qing’s hand seals suddenly changed and the dark soul fire spread out, enveloping this soul shadow like an armor.

Under this armor, the mournful and resentful aura of the soul shadow was instantly suppressed. After that, Xu Qing pointed at the magic ship. Immediately, the sinister soul shadow rose into the air and headed straight for the magic ship.

Zhang San hurriedly assisted from the side and stimulated the power of the magic ship. In an instant, the magic ship buzzed. The moment the soul shadow came into contact with it, it shone with a resplendent light. Even the Diamond Sect’s ancestor paid close attention from inside the iron stick.

After all, this would be the second artifact spirit of Demon Xu. He had no choice but to judge the other party’s threat to him.

The soul shadow completely fused into the magic ship. The magic ship shook, and at the next moment, the faceless bow of the ship suddenly blurred and formed a sinister face.

It was the face of the soul shadow.

A connection with the magic ship that had never been there before appeared in Xu Qing’s mind. His body trembled and he had a feeling that the magic ship had become a part of his body.

His understanding of the magic ship became comprehensive at this moment. Just this point alone could allow him to use much more power of the magic ship.

Needless to say, after the soul shadow fused into it and the array formation inside the magic ship was fully activated, a pressure that surpassed Foundation Building and belonged to the Golden Core realm erupted from the magic ship.

At this moment, it was no longer a magic ship but a magic warship!

Xu Qing’s eyes gleamed. Zhang San, who was at the side, also had an extremely excited expression.

“Success!”

At the same time, as the red glow scattered down from the sky, in the main city of the Eight Sects Alliance’s Soaring Cloud Sword Sect, two figures were strolling on the streets.

One walked in front and one behind, like a master and servant. They were both wearing black robes and wore the god’s fragmented face mask that emitted a terrifying aura.

“What a lively, majestic city. Night Dove, is the performance about to begin?” The person in front spoke.

“Master, that person has replied. The performance is about to begin.” The black-clothed man at the back replied respectfully.

Almost at the instant Night Dove finished speaking… outside the Eight Sects Alliance, the originally clear water of the vast Immortal Enrichment River suddenly changed at this moment.

A section of it turned pitch-black!
