Outside Of Time

Chapter 1355 Shocking Change!

At this moment, outside the Ancient Sovereign Planet, on the rainbow fog bridge, thousands of nobles and ministers who didnʼt have the qualifications to step onto the Sovereign Planet stood solemnly with their heads lowered.

Outside the fog bridge, a group of cultivators were kneeling down.

In fact, it was the same in the entire Imperial City. The dragon of fortune in the sky roared and the sky shone. The human raceʼs array formation was activated fully, forming a vast world.

It wasnʼt just the imperial capital. At that moment, the Grand Imperial Capital Region and even the seven counties, including the Holy Wave, Black Spirit, Black Heaven… All the human territories also had offering rituals and bowed solemnly.

The various county governors and garrisons had long received the notice.

This was a grand ceremony of the human race. Hence, at this moment, almost everyone in the entire human race who knew about this looked in the direction of the Grand Imperial Capital Region in unison.

Today, all the nonhuman races and forces with ulterior motives in the human raceʼs territories instinctively restrained themselves. They didnʼt dare to cause disturbance on the day of the human raceʼs ancestral worship.

While disturbances on ordinary days might be minor, any disruption today would undoubtedly be earth-shattering. It would be a great disrespect to the human race, and the nonhuman races within the human territories did not dare to act so recklessly.

For a time, fortune rose in the human raceʼs territory. Even their bloodline was fluctuating, forming a massive momentum that caused the sky to stir.

The human raceʼs allies also followed the agreement and worshiped together.

Not to mention the Baize Race and the Siʼe Race, in the Moon Offering Region, the heir and the others sighed with emotion as they stood on the Moon Offering Altar and looked towards the Imperial City.

Although they were already independent and their roots were under their feet, how could they part with the human race?

Outside the human raceʼs territory, the various nonhuman races surrounding the human race were also shaken. They arranged for a large number of soldiers to gather at the border.

They didnʼt have any intention of invading. All of this was to prevent the human race from invading using ancestral worship as a pretext.

At the same time, the gazes of all the powerful races in the Wanggu gathered on the human capital. All kinds of thoughts emerged.

Right after the drastic event in the Flame Moon, the human race was performing ancestral worship.

In this large Wanggu, major events had happened… a little too frequently in this short year.

How could it not be taken seriously by those powerful races?

In everyoneʼs hearts, there was a feeling that a storm was coming.

Hence, on this day, the human race became the only focus of attention in Wanggu.

Countless thoughts converged, countless hearts intertwined, and countless eyes gazed intently.

If there were any ritual capable of shaking both past and present, then a ritual that could gather the thoughts, hearts, and gazes of the entire Wanggu should certainly be counted among them.

At that moment, in the human capital where Wangguʼs senses had gathered, on the mysterious Ancient Sovereign Planet that had risen, wisps of terrifying aura from the depths of this planet circled.

As they shattered all the spatial doors and nourished the planet, their rotations formed a huge vortex.

As the vortex rumbled, the sky changed color.

At the center of the vortex was the vast altar that was the center of Wangguʼs gaze. Ninety nine figures stood in reverence, accompanied by the five princes, and leading them all was the Emperor… advancing alone!

With no hindrance above and no obstacle below, symbolizing the unity of heaven and earth, he proceeded with sincerity and reverence.

Step by step, he ascended the steps of the altar, heading towards its summit.

A voice that carried inexplicable dignity rang out as the Human Emperor walked over.

”Profound Earth human ancestors, the progenitors of Wanggu.”

”Their achievements span the cosmos, blessing the heavenly spirits. Their virtue invigorates martial prowess, fostering unity among all races, ensuring continuity through the ages, and origins stretching far and wide.”

”Through self-reliance and fortitude, prosperity is achieved through worship. For countless eons, it has been so, in the east of the Wanggu.”

”Billions of descendants, scattered throughout the heavens.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone changed.

Regardless of whether it was the people from the rainbow fog bridge or the cultivators in the Sovereign Planet, all of them were shocked.

Xu Qing also abruptly lifted his head.

The expressions of the people around him changed.

This was because… the words of worship werenʼt referring to the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether but… the ancestors of the human race!

The so-called human ancestors were the earliest batch of immortals who came to the Wanggu countless years ago. There were immortals from all races among them, and the human immortals among them established this land together with the others. They also decided on the first ancient sovereign, allowing for the proliferation of humans and various other races here.

Such a worship to the human ancestors without worshiping the Mystic Nether was rarely seen but not unheard of.

In the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether Era, ancestral worship was done like this.

At that moment, the Human Emperor Mystic Warʼs ancestral worship continued.

While everyoneʼs hearts were trembling, the Human Emperor continued climbing in silence.

The impassioned voice, though trembling, continued to echo.

”Yet… through countless ages, the heavens lost their authority, the earth lost its cycles, after the ancestors, the vicissitudes repeated, the fortune of the race rose and fell, and foreign enemies gradually emerged.”

”After numerous wars, troubles were frequent, enduring millennia of hardships, the land of the race stained with blood, though the Mystic Nether arose, gods also appeared, the powerful forces wreaked havoc.”

”Mountains and rivers shattered, sentient beings suffered, wars never ceased, much has changed, strong neighbors encroaching, the state facing calamity.”

”The mistake of the Eastern Triumph, whose fault was it; the weeping of the Mirror Cloud, whose fortune was it?”

”Then came the Black Heaven and Crimson Goddess, rampant and crazed, darkness spreading, with blood and gore.”

”But our soldiers and people, rose up with raised arms, bringing forth the dawn, finally avenging the shame of the race, punishing the Black Heaven, restoring the pride of the human race.”

”The heavens and earth soar, opportunities arise, the cosmos opens, now emerges talented individuals, ushering in the glory of the human race.”

The voice echoed and every word was like thunder, shaking the surroundings. At the same time, the Human Emperor… finally reached the peak of the heavenly altar!

The moment he stood there, everyoneʼs attention was on him.

The voice didnʼt continue. Although there was still a voice echoing, it wasnʼt the voice from earlier. Instead, it rang out from the mouth of the Human Emperor.

The Human Emperor spoke for the first time and his voice contained the dignity of the heavens.

”As the stars revolve and the ages pass.”

”Today, the mountains and rivers grow more magnificent, the humans display their elegance, spanning time, carrying on from the past, facing the impending battle, time waits for no one.”

”Yet, the mission is in our hearts, the heavy responsibility on our shoulders. I, Mystic War, have lived up to our ancestors and made achievements for the human race.”

”I swear to elevate our human race to its peak!”

”There shall be three offerings!”

The Human Emperor raised his head and his gaze landed on the universe, the void, and outside Wanggu.

There was a strange glint in his eyes and his expression actually fluctuated at this moment.

Clearly, he, who was standing here, seemed to have waited for this day for a long time.

”First offering, human map!”

As the Human Emperorʼs voice rang out, he waved his right hand. Immediately, fortune from all directions rumbled over, forming a gigantic map in front of him.

This map depicted the current territories of the human race.

It showed the rise of the four regions.

”Second offering, heroic soul records!”

The Human Emperor spoke again, and countless stone steles thundered down, too numerous to count, stretching endlessly. each one bore a multitude of names, the names of those who had perished in the countless ages since the departure of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether.

The exact number was impossible to ascertain, but a profound sense of heroism rose to the heavens.

Xu Qingʼs breathing was hurried. He saw many familiar names on the stone steles at the front. Among them was… the Sword Holding Palace Master of Fenghai County, Kong Liangxiu!

Sadness not only rose in Xu Qingʼs heart but also spread in the hearts of many humans.

They could see the ancestors of their families and the misery of the human race for countless years on these stone steles…

”Third offering, wind and rain!”

The Human Emperorʼs expression was solemn as he spoke again.

The moment he finished speaking, a strong wind blew over, accompanied by heavy rain.

The wind was the wind of the human race. It had blown for countless years and participated in countless battles. It was taken from time.

Rain was the rain of the human race. For countless years, all the rain that descended on the human race had witnessed the world, the sorrows. It had been collected by people from different eras until now.

Combined together, they were offered up today, symbolizing… good weather!

It was ironic…

Because that wind hadnʼt descended from the sky, it had risen from the earth, blowing towards the heavens.

And that rain hadnʼt descended to the earth.

Instead, it had risen from the earth, swirling towards the sky.

By now, even the most dumb person could sense that something was amiss. Waves surged in Xu Qingʼs heart, and the surrounding people also panted in horror.

Outside the Sovereign Planet, it was the same. The hearts of the ministers who were worshiping at the rainbow fog bridge sped up and they felt an intense sense of worry.

Even among the commoners, although the vast majority of them hadnʼt reacted yet, some of the wise people were already shaken.

The ancestral worship continued.

”Remembering the ancestors, blessing our descendants, in this spirit of offering, may the ritual be flawless.”

After the offerings were made, the Human Emperor stood there and kowtowed in the direction of the sky and beyond Wanggu… again and again!

Every kowtow was filled with determination!

One bow, three bows, nine bows!

Every bow was filled with resolve!

It was as though he was bidding farewell!

After three kowtows and nine bows, all the mountains and rivers in the Grand Imperial Capital Region trembled at this instant.

The mountains rumbled and the rivers rolled back.

On the Imperial Capitalʼs Ancient Sovereign Planet, on the heavenly altar, the images of mountains manifested and long rivers swam.

That was the arrival of the spirit of the mountains and rivers of the large region!

Immediately after, the terrifying auras that were moving in the surroundings sighed faintly, forming blurry figures that fell with the mountains and rivers.

They walked into the offerings as though they wanted to enjoy it.

At the same time, the extremely dense power of the human raceʼs fortune erupted at this moment, enveloping the entire Imperial City. Everyone had to lower their heads as a sense of suppression suddenly descended.

The Human Emperor looked at the shadows of mountains and rivers and the blurry figures that gathered and fused into the offerings. His voice, now hoarse and no longer deep, softly uttered.

”May the spirits…”

What he wanted to say was may the spirits receive our offerings.

However, at that moment, before he could say the last three words… a shocking change occurred!

A voice rang out from behind the Human Emperor.

”Mystic War, are you worthy of being the Human Emperor?”

”Today, under the ancestral presence, with the hopes of the human race, I, in the capacity of a son, am willing to wield the blade of the human race, to slay you, this tyrant devoid of virtue, devoid of benevolence, and ruthless in devouring the blood of the people!”

This sound swept in all directions, causing the surrounding void and the sky to ripple crazily.

The entire world was shocked.

Xu Qing abruptly raised his sound as he instantly recognized this voice…

On the heavenly altar, the Human Emperor slowly turned and gazed behind him.

Behind him, four of the five princesʼ expressions altered and they instinctively retreated. Only one individual stood there and stared coldly at the Human Emperor.

He was… Ning Yan!
