OUTSIDE OF TIME

1314 Risking Everything

The moment Xu Qing spoke, the captain was clearly excited.

“Junior Brother, don’t worry. This time, I’m 100% confident. There will definitely be no problem!”

Xu Qing’s eyes were originally bloodshot and he was ready to do this, but when he heard the captain’s words, his heart skipped a bit.

As for the captain, he became even more excited and was still speaking.

“Junior Brother, ever since I guessed the three gods’ motive back then, I’ve been planning for a long time. I have been fighting tooth and nail to get on this bandwagon!”

“Before I encountered the sentient ancient teleportation array, I actually didn’t have much confidence. Although I’ve prepared escape items and refined them many times, the materials are still a little inferior.”

“Until I encountered that sentient ancient teleportation array. The heavens are really helping me!”

The captain laughed.

“In fact, the plan against the Crimson Goddess back then is also related to this matter. This is because the flesh and blood of the Crimson Goddess are good things. She was the first to become a god in Wanggu and was the one who guided the fragmented-face here. There is a great karma between Her and the fragmented-face.”

“This karma, coupled with the enhancement of the feather, can theoretically form a fixed teleportation!”

“However, the power required for this teleportation is too terrifying.”

“Therefore, there was this trip to the Divine Realm!”

“The power of the Divine Realm’s advancement will be the driving force. You know how difficult it is to obtain this kind of driving force, how rare the opportunity is!”

“And now, the Divine Realm is still rising into the air and the distance between it and the fragmented-face has been shortened… However, this isn’t enough, we still need to borrow the guidance of the Heavenly Dao to point the way!”

“Our son’s role is here!”

“The Wordless Scripture will conceal us to the greatest extent. In addition, with the power of this emperor’s corpse which has the intent of a god and the emperor, it gives us the possibility of doing such a super big thing!”

“Junior Brother, our minds are connected. There will definitely be no problem this time!”

The captain laughed wildly and his words were extremely crazy.

“When will we start?!” Xu Qing didn’t want to listen anymore. The more the captain spoke, the more he felt that it was dangerous.

However… Xu Qing wasn’t willing to give up at this point.

Hence, he suppressed the hunger in his body again.

“Soon. The moment the Divine Realm is destroyed, it will be the time of teleportation. We… Hmm? Our chance is here!”

The captain’s words changed and Xu Qing instantly focused.

At the same time, in the outside world, the god’s fragmented-face hanging in the sky finally closed Its eyes.

The moment It closed, the Divine Realm where the three gods were silently disintegrated. It began to turn into ashes from the edges which then scattered in the sky.

As for the Divine Realm itself, it was getting closer and closer to the fragmented-face.

From afar, the Divine Realm that was gradually dissipating in the sky was getting smaller and smaller.

As for the three gods who were sitting cross-legged and meditating inside, Their respective divine eyes suddenly opened and Their bodies instantly disappeared from the Divine Realm that was about to disintegrate. Accompanying Them was Flame Mystic and the others, who were already unconscious from the drastic change.

When They reappeared, the three gods were already outside the Divine Realm and in the air above Wanggu.

Their auras erupted explosively at this instant. They had finally crossed the entire tribulation fire stage and stepped into the flawlessness.

From now on, They would soar and there would be no tribulations. There was hope to reach the Divine Platform.

This was the level that many gods in the Wanggu Continent yearned for. It was a pity that it was too difficult to reach flawlessness. In the entire Wanggu Continent, the number of gods who had achieved flawlessness before this could be counted on one hand.

Even someone as strong as the Crimson Goddess was only half a step away back then.

Now, the three gods were flawless and the divine fire burned to the extreme in Their bodies. Each of Them emitted a terrifying aura that surpassed the Crimson Goddess, causing the sky and earth to change color.

With the three gods making a breakthrough, one could imagine that the situation in Wanggu would probably change.

Their expressions also revealed a rare hint of joy. At this moment, They lifted Their heads and watched as the Divine Realm disintegrated and the sacrifice ended.

This grand show seemed to come to an end.

However, at this moment, the Sun God’s expression suddenly changed. The pupils of the Moon God contracted, and the Star God raised Her beautiful brows.

Their gazes all landed on the Divine Realm that was flying toward the fragmented-face.

Right now, only the core area of the Divine Realm was still there. The other parts had already disintegrated. Moreover, even this core area was turning into ashes.

However, there was a power of teleportation that erupted into the sky.

The aura of this teleportation was astonishing and incomparably majestic. Its aura surpassed the activation of the ancient array formation by more than a hundred times, causing the sky to instantly dazzle.

It was extremely bright, just like how darkness could blot out the sky!

At this moment, not only did the three gods see this scene, but all the gazes and divine senses that were attracted by the three gods’ previous actions also noticed this scene.

Under the convergence of countless gazes and divine senses, a figure appeared in the teleportation array that erupted with a terrifying aura.

It was the emperor’s corpse where Xu Qing and Erniu were!

Everyone’s attention was on it, and shock naturally rose from all directions.

“What are they doing?!”

Even the calm Sun God’s heart trembled.

“Courting death.” A complicated look flashed in the Moon God’s eyes, but She didn’t seem surprised.

As for the Star God, Her heart was also shaken but there was a strange expression on Her face.

While everyone’s hearts were in an uproar, in the collapsed Divine Realm, in the teleportation light, the emperor’s corpse raised its right hand.

It held up an extraordinary golden feather!

The light of teleportation was emitted from this feather.

This feather had been refined by the captain many times before it possessed such divine might. Its appearance caused the light of teleportation to soar into the sky.

“Son!!”

The emperor’s corpse suddenly said with a thunderous voice.

The sky instantly churned and the sound of a baby rang out. It actually caused some subtle changes in the Wanggu’s sky, causing the teleportation light that rushed into the sky to be guided in the correct direction.

“Crimson Goddess’ karma!”

The emperor’s corpse said again.

At the next instant, a large amount of the Crimson Goddess’ flesh and blood flew out and merged with the teleportation light, forming red threads that rapidly spread and actually adjusted the teleportation slightly.

The teleportation’s coordinates were locked with the karma.

The instant all of this was completed, the Divine Realm where the emperor’s corpse was located completely collapsed.

A deafening sound spread through the world.

The sound grew louder and louder, until finally, in the moment when it seemed to become the only sound in the heavens and earth, the divine realm… completely dissipated into the sky.

The offer of the Divine Realm was fully completed at this moment.

This Divine Realm might have become the Divine World because dissipating didn’t mean that it wouldn’t exist anymore. However, there was another possibility.

This advancement failed because the Divine Realm couldn’t withstand it.

The outcome was no longer important. What was important was that… it had long been sacrificed to the fragmented-face.

This was also the end of the matter that the three gods had planned for tens of thousands of years.

With this, they were rid of the karma!

They borrowed the power of the fragmented-face to advance it and sacrificed it to the fragmented-face to form a closed-

loop.

The curtains of the three gods finally fell.

But… the prologue of Xu Qing and the captain was now unfolding!

The instant the Divine Realm crumbled and turned into ashes, with the help of the energy of advancement, teleportation… was finally activated. That feather instantly turned into specks of golden light.

The emperor’s corpse inside had already disappeared.

In the emperor’s corpse, Xu Qing heard the captain’s wild laughter.

“Junior Brother, let’s go!”

…

Outside the Wanggu Continent was a vast starry sky.

If someone stood in the starry sky and turned back to look at Wanggu, they would see how vast Wanggu was.

Outside the huge Wanggu, there was a golden spine.

This spine was very long and surrounded the continent like a golden centipede, enveloping the entire Wanggu Continent in circles.

It had no arms, no body, and no legs. There was only this golden spine that was connected to Its fragmented-face that was hanging down towards the ground.

The fragmented-face’s hair fluttered and permeated the clouds above half of the continent.

As for the wound on Its face, one could see a large amount of minced flesh, blood, sweat, hair fragments…

However, It was too big. From Wanggu’s perspective, It had surpassed the sun and moon. When looked from the starry sky, Its size was even more astonishing.

Compared to It, cultivators were far inferior.

Its hair was naturally the same. Every strand of hair was extremely thick and emitted an indescribable pressure.

Those pieces of flesh were even more terrifying.

The smallest drop of blood was also like the sea.

They floated outside the wound and spread to an endless range, existing here eternally with the fragmented-face.

It was the same for Wanggu’s entanglement.

Ever since It floated over from the depths of the starry sky and entangled Wanggu, It didn’t seem to have changed for countless years. However, if one explored the river of time, one could clearly discern the contrasts before and after.

The golden spine had tightened its grip on the Wanggu.

As for the area of the Wanggu Continent, although it still looked huge, it was actually much smaller than before.

Wanggu was being devoured.

This was the fragmented-face of the god that all living beings saw when they looked up.

It was supreme.

Ever since Its arrival, since ancient times, there didn’t seem to be any living beings who could appear in front of It.

It was as though to It, regardless of whether it was life or anything else, it was just the passage of time. There was no beginning or end.

Until today.

A tiny dot of light blinked in the void outside the wound on Its face, next to a drop of blood.

If someone magnified the point of light infinitely, they would see a figure wearing an emperor’s robe.

The moment this figure appeared, it immediately turned blurry.

It was indescribably terrifying. A terrifying force that exceeded the imagination of life attacked its body like a torrent.

In the blink of an eye, the emperor’s corpse began to collapse. However, its expression also revealed unprecedented madness at this moment.

It was as though nothing in the world could compare to the thing in front of it. That expression of extreme madness and greed naturally came from the captain.

The light in the emperor’s corpse’s gaze was also extremely intense. It gave off the feeling of a hungry ghost that had starved for tens of thousands of years. In order to have a bite of food, it could disregard everything and erupt with everything.

The light in its gaze came from Xu Qing.

At this moment, the two of them could be said to be connected in mind. Their divine senses fused together and regardless of their thoughts or actions, they were perfectly intertwined.

Under their control, the emperor’s corpse didn’t care about its collapse or the dimming of its soul as it rushed toward the drop of blood that was like a sea with incomparable madness.
