Outside Of Time

Chapter 1695 Unprecedented Quasi Immortal

Qianjun and Piyi were clearly moved.

The brothers exchanged a glance before simultaneously turning to look at Star Ring,

Noticing that Star Ring, despite maintaining a neutral expression, had chosen to position himself with his back to Xu Qingʼs meteorite as a gesture of protection, the brothers immediately became invigorated.

In an instant, sword energy shot into the void.

They transformed into two ancient immortal swords. Radiating brilliance, they hovered in the starry sky, their tips pointing outward in all directions, exuding an air of unwavering loyalty.

This sight brought a faint smile to Zhou Zhengliʼs face, his eyes reflecting both admiration and a sense of camaraderie.

As for Xie Lingzi, he internally scoffed, thinking. These two swords must have damaged their brains during cultivation. How else could such individuals be accepted as disciples of a Lower Immortal and rise to the same level as me?”

Despite his silent derision, when he noticed Zhou Zhengliʼs gaze shift toward him, Xie Lingzi narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then decided to simply close them.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhengli continued to smile. His gaze swept over and landed on Yuanshan Su.

He held Yuanshan Su in high regard. This woman didnʼt seem to have a strong presence and was far inferior to Xie Lingzi and Star Ring. However, in reality, her combat strength was extraordinary.

Whether it was from past observations or her performance in the mirrored history of the Aurora Immortal Palace, it was clear that she was no simple figure.

In fact, analyzing the events of the Aurora Immortal Palace, excluding Xu Qing, Yuanshan Su was the only one who had survived until the end.

Moreover... she was a female cultivator... a beautiful female cultivator.

In Zhou Zhengliʼs opinion, it wasnʼt impossible for such a person to truly become the wife.

Hence. Zhou Zhengliʼs gaze contained a hint of respect.

Yuanshan Su silently chose to protect.

Only then did Zhou Zhengli withdraw his gaze. Meanwhile, the other Material Procurers, noticing the stance taken by the strongest among them, began to solidify their own attitudes. After all the experiences they had shared, Xu Qing had already earned a measure of acknowledgment in their hearts.

Very soon, even those who really had other thoughts suppressed those thoughts.

They guarded together.

Just like that, time flowed by.

The immortal energy fluctuations emitted by Xu Qingʼs body grew stronger and stronger. In the end, this immortal energy spread out into the starry sky, illuminating the laws of the universe.

At the same time, his immortal embryo also manifested outside like a Dharma Idol.

It was a thousand feet long and looked like a god.

It looked vast as it sat cross-legged on the meteorite.

A terrifying aura also erupted, shaking everything, forming a space storm that swept in all directions.

This caused the surrounding cultivators to immediately retreat. While avoiding the storm, they also paid close attention.

Since ancient times, the advancement of a Ruler to the Quasi Immortal Realm had always been a grand event.

After all, a Quasi Immortal... was also an immortal!

With the word ʼimmortalʼ in it, they were destined to be extraordinary.

Therefore, although most of the people here had a good understanding of the advancement process, they still couldnʼt take their eyes off it.

This was because... through the process of a cultivator advancing to the Quasi Immortal Realm, one could basically judge how far their future path could go. Although it wasnʼt absolute, there was at least a range. ”The key to advancing to the Quasi Immortal lies in the Nine Releases and One Immortal Foundation!”

Star Ringʼs perception of Xu Qingʼs advancement carried a hint of scrutiny. He wanted to see how Xu Qing, who had made him taste defeat for the first time in the Immortal Capital and even killed him before, would do during the process of advancing to the Quasi Immortal Realm. ”The Nine Releases mark the pinnacle-how far can he go?*

As Star Ring pondered, the same thought rose in everyoneʼs hearts.

This was especially so for Zhou Zhengli.

He could be said to be the person who paid the most attention to this among these people.

After sensing everyoneʼs thoughts, Xie Lingzi suddenly spoke. ”Everyone, why donʼt we place a bet? How many releases can Xu Qing complete? Zhou Zhengli, since you seem so confident in him, will you wager?” The others had different expressions. Xie Lingzi blinked and laughed. ”Although I havenʼt advanced yet, I understand that the moment a Ruler breaks through and steps into the Quasi Immortal Realm, they have to release their immortal embryo. For an average Quasi Immortal, managing three releases is already typical. Reaching five is rare, and achieving seven marks one as a true heavenʼs chosen. ”Those who achieve eight releases are as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns. As for nine.... anyone capable of such a feat is destined to become a

Lower Immortal!” ”I wonder, Fellow Daoist Yuanshan, how many releases have you achieved?” Xie

Lingzi looked at Yuanshan Su. ”Eight!” Yuanshan Su calmly said.

Xie Lingzi smiled and looked at Star Ring.

Star Ring ignored him.

Xie Lingzi didnʼt mind. He turned his head and looked at Zhou Zhengli. ”Of course itʼs nine. Zhou Zhengli smiled. ”Letʼs see. Xie Lingzi smiled.

Li Mengtu, who was at the side, frowned when he saw this. Just as he was about to say something, he fell into deep thought. He glanced at Zhou Zhengli and suddenly spoke. ”Compared to the few releases, the most important thing is actually that immortal foundation!” ”Releases can determine the density of the immortal embryo, and the immortal foundation determines how far the immortal path is! ”Every cultivator ascending to become a Quasi Immortal requires an immortal foundation, the cornerstone for later becoming an immortal!” ”This foundation must be tangible and cannot rely on oneʼs own Ordinance to fabricate. Some prepare theirs early, while others aim for something greater... I wonder, what might Xu Qingʼs immortal foundation be?”

Li Mengluʼs words echoed in the starry sky.

When everyone heard this, they fell into deep thought.

For them, this immortal foundation concerned their future, so it was naturally extremely important.

Even though Star King didnʼt participate in these discussions and bets, when he looked at Xu Qing in the distant storm, he couldnʼt help but recall his advancement back then.

At that time, he could have reached the ninth release. However, the conflict with Xu Qing caused him to be unable to complete it on the fifth realm.

In the end, he could only choose to advance outside.

He had reached eight releases.

Finally, he used his rebirth after death to exchange for the last release to perfect his immortal foundation. However, when he recalled it, his heart still stirred. ʼHowever, the main reason why I chose the fifth realm back then wasnʼt all because of the environment there, allowing me to reach the ninth release. My goal was the final immortal foundation:

I chose the path of the Fourth True Monarch, so I found his skeleton in the fifth realm and stored it as my own immortal foundation. ʼWhat will Xu Qingʼs immortal foundation be?”

Star Ring thought of the bell Xu Qing had used during the battle and that sharp iron stick...

Qianjun and Piyi shuddered and quietly retreated a little. However, they felt that it wasnʼt safe, so they retreated a little more.

They suddenly felt a little afraid.

The instant they retreated, Xu Qing, who was meditating on the meteorite in the center of the storm surrounded by everyone, suddenly shook.

A deafening sound spread in all directions. The thousand-foot-long immortal embryo that was exactly the same as him suddenly shone. ”Itʼs starting!”

Li Menglu was filled with anticipation and everyone stared over.

At the next instant, the light instantly became piercing, Xu Qingʼs thousand- foot-long immortal embryo seemed to contain a monstrous force that erupted terrifyingly,

A shocking rumbling sound rang out.

The thousand-foot-long immortal embryo expanded by ten times to ten thousand feet in size. The aura it emitted shook the surroundings and the pressure it emitted made oneʼs heart palpitate.

This was the first release!

This wasnʼt the end. Immediately after, the ten thousand-foot-long immortal embryo rumbled again, An even more terrifying fluctuation than before rose and its size increased by ten times to a hundred thousand feet!

Next was the third release, a million feet!

After that, the fourth release, ten million feet!

It continued. Not only did the energy not decrease, but it also became even denser. At the next instant, a body that was a hundred million feet tall appeared, enough to cause megalophobia. ”Xu Qingʼs release is ten times greater!” ”Ten times... Generally speaking, itʼs only two to three times. This is ten times!” ”Moreover, itʼs already the fifth release!” ”Although itʼs just the fifth release... it has surpassed the limit of most of the Quasi Immortals!”

Everyoneʼs thoughts rose... and the release continued!

In an instant, the sixth release erupted, forming a body of a billion feet.

This was enough to see Xu Qingʼs foundation.

Everyone retreated one after another. When they looked over, Xu Qingʼs immortal embryo was truly like a god. He sat cross-legged in the starry sky, giving off a holy feeling. Even their minds shook.

The seventh release appeared.

The eighth release arrived in an instant.

A hundred billion feet!

Although his size was still inferior to a star system, the stars surrounding it were already like rice grains.

As for those ascenders, they had long retreated extremely far away and looked at Xu Qingʼs immortal embryo in the starry sky. All of their hearts fluctuated intensely.

Xic Lingzi was dumbfounded.

Zhou Zhengli was excited and the strange glint in his eyes was intense.

Star Ringʼs expression was still normal, but his pupils had already contracted. Yuanshan Su remained silent.

As for the others, they felt as though there was a storm brewing in their hearts.

Just as everyone was feeling different degrees of shock, Xu Qingʼs releases paused for a moment.

However, it was only for a moment. After that... a loud sound that split the sky and earth shattered the starry sky. Xu Qingʼs already terrifying immortal embryo was released again!

The ninth release!

The starry sky darkened.

A vast body that was the size of a star system stood in the starry sky.

The stars around it were no longer the size of rice grains but like dust.

The ascenders were in a daze.

At the next instant, this galactic-sized immortal embryo instantly shrunk. Its speed was so fast that afterimages appeared in the starry sky.

In the end, this immortal embryo returned to normal and fused with Xu Qingʼs true body.

This was its true appearance, and the releases... were the range of the immortal embryoʼs power.

In other words, the current Xu Qingʼs divine sense... was comparable to the size of a star system. ”Unprecedented...” Star Ring mumbled, and his scalp felt a little numb.

The others were also stunned. ”Thatʼs not right. Under normal circumstances, itʼs impossible for it to be like this. This tenfold release... and nine releases. Thereʼs no record of it in the books at all!” ”No matter how deep Xu Qingʼs foundation is, itʼs impossible for him to do this!” ”This has already exceeded the scope of normal!” ”There must be other karma!”

As the former number one star and born in the Star Ring Tower, Star Ringʼs experience was definitely extraordinary. After a short moment of distraction, he immediately saw that something was wrong.

He acknowledged that there was a gap between him and Xu Qing, but he didnʼt think the gap would be so great!

At the next instant, his heart trembled as a guess suddenly appeared in his mind. This guess made him turn his head abruptly and look at Zhou Zhengli.

Xie Lingzi also reacted. Yuansban Su and the others also felt waves in their hearts and looked at Zhou Zhengli in unison.

They thought of the words Zhou Zhengli had said!

At that moment, Zhou Zhengli was excited. ”Thatʼs because this place... is Aurora Heavenʼs Beyond!” ”Thatʼs because thereʼs a huge karma between him and Aurora Heavenʼs

Beyond. Someone... once gave this Heavenʼs Beyond to him!” ”So... itʼs this ownerless Heavenʼs Beyond thatʼs cheering!”

At that moment, in the Fourth Star Ring, in this place filled with gods, a boat was floating past the starry sky.

The boat was strange and could obstruct the perception of gods. As for the two people on the boat, their cultivation levels were also astonishing. As long as they were careful, they wouldnʼt have any problems in the Fourth Star Ring. ”He got it.”

A gentle voice rang out from the ship.

The person who spoke was none other than Young Lord Aurora. The woman beside him was his wife, Fairy Spirit Phoenix.

Hearing her husbandʼs words, Fairy Spirit. Phoenix smiled. ”At that time, I could tell that what you gave him wasnʼt just an immortal palace.”

Young Lord Aurora looked at his wife beside him with love in his eyes. ”How can an immortal palace be enough for such a great kindness? I also gave that piece of Heavenʼs Beyond to him.”
