Outside Of Time

Chapter 1004 Purple Moon Divine Repository!

Green sand desert.

The wind was like sharp blades hidden in the void, shattering the sand one after another and emitting sharp cries as it blew past Xu Qing and the captain.

After losing consciousness, Xu Qing, who was now in a frenzy, rushed over from afar. His speed was so fast that he instantly arrived 100 feet away from the captain.

As the word ʼJunior Brotherʼ echoed, Xu Qingʼs footsteps suddenly stopped 100 feet away.

His eyes were red and filled with chaos as he stared fixedly at the figure in front of him. When this figure entered his vision, there was a struggle in his eyes and he sobered up for a moment.

The confrontation between human nature and divinity also became extremely intense at this moment. Xu Qing trembled. He recognized his eldest senior brother but he couldnʼt control the hunger in his body.

”Eldest Senior Brother…”

Xu Qingʼs voice was hoarse. The instant he spoke, the abyss formed by the confrontation between human nature and divinity swallowed him again. Xu Qing let out a painful wail and turned to head into the distance!

He actually restrained himself from getting close to Eldest Senior Brother!

This scene caused Chen Erniuʼs expression to change.

He understood Xu Qing and also understood the pain Xu Qing was enduring at this moment. Hence, he was well aware what it meant to restrain oneself in this state…

This both indicated Xu Qingʼs exceptional qualities and emphasized his own immense significance in the eyes of the other.

Chen Erniuʼs heart warmed.

”Silly kid.”

He smiled and shook his head. After that, he took a deep breath. At the next instant, a face appeared in his eyes. When the eyes of the face opened, there was still a face in its pupils.

One after another, under the endlessness, a blue light rose from the captainʼs body. His body swayed and he instantly disappeared.

When he appeared, he was already in front of Xu Qing.

Xu Qingʼs expression distorted as Chen Erniu spoke softly.

”Junior Brother, if youʼre hungry, eat.”

With that, he lifted his hand and placed it in front of Xu Qing.

Xu Qingʼs body trembled. He lifted his head and stared at his eldest senior brother in front of him. The desire that came from his lifeʼs instinct, the vortex that came from the confrontation between human nature and divinity, completely erupted at this moment.

He suddenly opened his mouth and bit the captainʼs arm.

Blood dripped as he tore the flesh and swallowed.

As he ate, Xu Qingʼs body felt comforted. However, his heart was in pain. He wanted to control himself. He didnʼt want this to happen.

However, the envelopment of the abyss made it impossible for him to do so. Hence, his expression became sinister and crazier as he whimpered.

That was the resistance of human nature!

The captain smiled and spoke softly.

”Little Qing, donʼt be afraid.”

As he spoke, the captain allowed Xu Qing to devour his left hand. He then lifted his right hand and stroked Xu Qingʼs hair, hugging his body in his arms.

”Eat, eat more. This matter should have been done by the old man. However, who asked me to be your eldest senior brother? I can do it too.”

”Eat, eat until youʼre full. We still have big things to do.”

Xu Qingʼs body trembled and the struggle in his eyes grew even more intense. An extremely terrifying thought appeared in his mind.

He wanted to… completely devour this Eldest Senior Brother in front of him without leaving anything. He wanted to eat him up completely.

More importantly, in these few days, since humanity and divinity fused, this was the first time he felt another type of desire other than hunger.

That was the thirst for blood!

He wanted to suck the captainʼs blood dry!

When this thought rose, Xu Qing felt an extreme pain in his heart.

He didnʼt want to!

At this moment, his devouring action suddenly paused.

Xu Qing let out a whimper. A few breaths later, the purple light on his entire body erupted, forming an overwhelming force that forcefully pushed the captainʼs body hundreds of feet away.

Looking at the captainʼs arm that had already been half-eaten by him, the struggle in Xu Qingʼs eyes grew even more intense. He abruptly lifted his right hand and directly put it into his mouth, pulling out the flesh he had swallowed piece by piece.

As for those that had made their way into his stomach, Xu Qing decisively cut open his abdomen, reaching in with his left hand, and extracting them piece by piece.

Blood splattered all over the ground.

What was strange was that the blood… was like beads, rolling on the ground. Xu Qingʼs sinister face appeared on each of them.

As Xu Qing dug out the flesh he had swallowed, he struggled intensely. The collision of human nature and divinity was unprecedentedly intense at this moment.

The captain stood in the distance and looked at Xu Qing. His expression revealed a hint of heartache but he didnʼt move.

He knew that… only by awakening Xu Qingʼs humanity could he truly overcome the trial of touching divinity.

”Back then…” The captainʼs mind recalled the past when he was sealed. A hint of pain surfaced in his eyes.

A while later, following Xu Qingʼs actions, more and more blood appeared. Finally, this blood actually formed a totem on its own outside his body.

From the sky, one could see that this totem was a face.

That face covered its eyes with a pained expression. Its entire body was blood-red, as though blood was continuously flowing.

Its form was like that of Crimson Goddess.

But the appearance was of Xu Qing!

However, at the center of the totem, Xu Qing, who was continuously digging out flesh, was struggling intensely. This was because he discovered that the thought of devouring his eldest senior brother hadnʼt disappeared.

As for Eldest Senior Brotherʼs missing left arm, it caused his pain to erupt continuously.

Finally, Xu Qing let out a roar that didnʼt sound human. He then turned and sped into the distance at full speed.

He wanted to take advantage of the rise of human nature and leave this place. He was about to be unable to suppress the hunger and it made him go crazy. He wanted to leave this place and go somewhere else to devour everything.

His vision was blurry and his world was distorted. The divinity was indifferently telling him that everything that was beneficial to evolution had to be done.

Beastly nature was a weapon that was released under the control of divinity.

However, human nature kept reminding him of his dignity and bottom line as a human.

There were some things that couldnʼt be done.

Some people couldnʼt be given up.

Some wills had to persevere even in death!

Xu Qing quickly left.

As he left, the face pattern formed by the droplets of blood on the ground rose and whistled behind him, emitting divine might.

The captain silently looked at Xu Qingʼs back view and followed.

Time flowed by and Xu Qing didnʼt stop running. The captainʼs appearance ignited the struggle in his heart. Amidst the fusion of human nature and divinity, his madness far exceeded what it used to be.

”Who I am… isnʼt important.”

”No, this is very important. Iʼm Xu Qing!”

”My past isnʼt important anymore.”

”Very important!”

”The people I meet in my life are just food.”

”No!!”

In Xu Qingʼs heart, two different consciousnesses gradually appeared amidst the struggle and roars. Among these two consciousnesses, one was indifferent and the other was in pain.

The indifferent consciousness was divinity and the carrier was the bloody face behind Xu Qing.

The painful consciousness was human nature and the carrier was Xu Qingʼs unwillingness to give up.

During this process, the other nascent souls of his didnʼt change but the power of the Purple Moon on his body continued to erupt.

Unknowingly, the Purple Moon Nascent Soul had already reached the perfected third tribulation, but the tribulation actually didnʼt descend. It allowed his Purple Moon Nascent Soul to continue rising until it reached the fourth tribulation and reached the perfected fourth tribulation.

It continued until the fifth tribulation!

It still erupted and reached the great circle of the fifth tribulation!

It still didnʼt stop and broke through amidst the rumbling.

His Purple Moon Nascent Soul directly stepped into the Dao Nurturing realm!

Outside Xu Qingʼs body, amidst the intertwining purple lights, an illusory purple secret repository appeared faintly and descended.

Or rather, this wasnʼt a secret repository. This was… a divine repository formed by the power of the god!

At this moment, the sky lost color and the desert churned.

As the power of the Purple Moon expanded, Xu Qingʼs struggles began to weaken. His humanity was rapidly dimming. The feeling of hunger was about to replace everything and his thirst for blood was about to conquer everything.

The face formed by the blood behind him seemed to be smiling, an indifferent smile.

It was going to win.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Xu Qing suddenly stopped in his tracks. He stood up there and looked 100 feet in front of him. His entire body seemed to be covered in countless goosebumps, spreading and quivering.

His mind churned with unprecedented waves.

It was as though what he saw 100 feet away attracted all his thoughts and understanding.

It was an iron box.

The metal box contained some blood-red soil, and in the soil…

A flower was blooming!

The only distinctive feature is the noticeable serration along the edges of its leaves. It has a total of seventeen leaves, and in the center of each leaf, there is a strange symbol formed by threads.

This symbol gazed like a face. Some were crying and some were laughing.

After Xu Qing saw this plant, it was as though millions of lightning bolts had collapsed in his mind at the same time and surged into his entire body. His soul seemed to be tearing apart.

Countless scenes and countless memories rapidly rose from the unimportant places in his mind, occupying everything.

”The heavenfate flower, also known as the life-extension blaze and the divine spirit grass. It is a mutated variant of the divine-class plant, compound wood. According to records, there are a total of 73 variants, but only the first variant can be used in medicine. It grows in any area within a forbidden zone, but there are no rules to dictate where it might be found. It is extremely rare.

”Its effects consist of regenerating broken limbs and even reigniting oneʼs life force. Other than soul injuries, it can cure everything.”

Xu Qing walked over trembling and knelt in front of the plant. He then lifted his hand and gently stroked it.

”Heavenfate flower…”

He had searched for many years but still couldnʼt find it… the heavenfate flower that could extend Captain Leiʼs life back then.

”Captain Lei…”

Tears rolled down from Xu Qingʼs eyes, tracing his cheeks and falling onto the sandy ground, leaving darkened spots like ink stains.

This was the tears of human nature.

The blood-red face behind him collapsed, transforming into countless drops of blood that gushed in through the wound on Xu Qingʼs body.

In the distance, the captain stood there and silently observed all of this. His tense heart finally relaxed and a smile emerged on his face.

A person quietly emerged beside him. It was the heir.

”I believe it now. Your master is definitely not an ordinary person.”

The heir gazed at Xu Qing in the distance and voiced softly.

”Either heʼs the reincarnation of an expert from my era, or heʼs one of the most outstanding people in the later generations after the ancient sovereign left.”

”The old man is average and canʼt be compared to Senior. If Senior takes in a disciple, Iʼll be the first to register.” The captain changed his tone to flattering and fawning.

The heir glanced at the captainʼs expression. He didnʼt believe anything this person said.

”Iʼm just a little curious. Did you and Xu Qing take the initiative to find your master, or did your master find you?”
