Outside Of Time

Chapter 1706 This Illusion Has Truth

Life, no entrance.

Death, no path.

Departure, impossible.

Return, unachievable.

This was the God of Pain at this moment.

It was frozen in the ice coffin, sealed in time by the space-time hourglass, and ensnared by the web of cause and effect spun across the Heavenʼs Beyond.

It was stuck between returning and leaving, becoming a special spirit stone that. constantly emitted origin essence.

It could only immerse Itself in the pain of Its body burning, in the reincarnation cycle of Its soul being torn apart, in the torture of its divinity and even origin essence being slowly absorbed.

In the starry sky, Xu Qing stared at the ice coffin in front of him with a cold gaze.

His anger was gradually suppressed. The current outcome of this True God was already the best torture.

Since It liked pain, let it personally experience it. ”Itʼs a pity that I donʼt have the divine authority to tell stories like Jade Flowing Dust...”

Xu Qing muttered to himself,

If he had the divine authority of Jade Flowing Dust, he could exert it now and fabricate one painful story after another for this True God, causing It to sink into the story in the ice and experience even more mental torture.

This way, not only could it make this True God suffer even more, but it could also make use of the stories to enrich the origin essence It emitted. ”Thereʼs no hurry.”

Xu Qing retracted his gaze and took a step forward. He then sat cross-legged on the ice coffin and slowly closed his eyes. He breathed in and out and the pores on his body opened.

He was absorbing the origin essence emitted from the ice coffin.

Not only was this origin essence dense, but it was also pure. As Xu Qing breathed, it fused into his entire body.

After that, it fused with the immortal embryo in his body, nourishing it.

At the next instant, Xu Qingʼs immortal embryo shone with a gentle light, illuminating the pitch-black Heavenʼs Reyond. This caused the countless universes, star systems, and stars in Heavenʼs Beyond to no longer be as pitch- black as before.

They recovered one after another.

Xu Qingʼs immortal embryo also gradually grew under the waves of light. It was the same for the immortal foundation formed by the immortal palace inside.

Just like that, time flowed by.

Very soon, a month passed.

Xu Qing opened his eyes.

A dark glint flashed in his eyes. After a while, he lowered his head and looked at the ice coffin under him.

At the start, the origin essence emitted by the ice coffin was extremely dense, but it gradually decreased. It went from a surging force to a trickle.

This was normal.

This kind of divine spirit origin stoneʼs effect was unending.

It didnʼt erupt all at once.

Hence, for Xu Qing: gradually absorbing it was the best method now,

During this month of cultivation, the improvement he gained wasnʼt small either. His immortal embryo became even more condensed. Whether it was the pressure or aura, it surpassed the past.

Especially when his immortal foundation was the immortal palace. Coupled with his identity as the master of Heavenʼs Beyond. Xu Qingʼs aura was getting closer and closer to that of an immortal.

In terms of realm, he wasnʼt far from the peak of the early-stage Quasi

Immortal Realm.

If this cultivation speed was placed outside, it would be enough to make people envious. It was already incomparably fast.

After all, the Quasi Immortal realm was the process of an immortal embryo transforming into an immortal figure. The amount of origin essence needed for this process could be said to be terrifying,

And the immortal figure was one of the signs of the Lower immortal realm!

However, Xu Qing still felt that it was too slow. ”If I can get a few more True God Origin Stones like this...

Xu Qing licked his lips and stood up from the ice coffin. When he looked into the distance, he recalled the illusion he had fallen into earlier. ”That illusion realm was a little strange...”

A dark glint flashed in Xu Qingʼs eyes.

He remembered that in the illusion, he had been in seclusion here for ten years and his cultivation had reached the peak of the Quasi Immortal Realm. Although there werenʼt many details in his memory. Xu Qing still remembered the feeling at the peak of the Quasi Immortal Realm.

This was especially so... ”If I really choose to enter seclusion here for ten years, according to the amount of origin essence emitted by this ice coffin, itʼs still hard to say if my cultivation can increase to the peak of the Quasi Immortal Realm. However, it should be possible for me to reach the late-stage” ”Therefore, that illusion has logic and is not baseless...”

After this thought appeared, a haze involuntarily rose in Xu Qingʼs heart.

He instinctively didnʼt want to take this path, didnʼt want to choose to stay here and enter closed-door cultivation.

On one hand, it was because he didnʼt want to be in line with the illusion. On the other hand, he felt that his cultivation speed was still too slow.

There was also another reason. Xu Qing was very clear that if he wanted to break through the Quasi Immortal Realm and step into the Lower Immortal realm, he didnʼt only need origin essence to let the immortal embryo transform into an immortal figure.

He still needed his Ordinance to reach a higher level! ”In other words, my tenth extremity!”

Xu Qing still didnʼt have a direction for the tenth extremity. Even in the illusion, he hadnʼt explored it...

Xu Qing fell silent. He raised his hand and suppressed the ice coffin under him in the black hole in Heavenʼs Beyond. He then used the black hole to absorb and store the origin essence at all times.

After that, he pondered and was about to leave.

However, just as he raised his foot and was about to land, Xu Qingʼs body suddenly paused.

A strange glint suddenly appeared in his eyes. ”Thatʼs not right!” ”In the illusion, it felt as if I had grasped the tenth extremity, because when I returned to Wanggu within the illusion, the level of cultivation I displayed seemed... beyond that of a Quasi Immortal.ʼ ”As for the details, I donʼt know.”

Xu Qing frowned. Regarding the illusion earlier, the doubts in his heart deepened.

However, he lacked effective information. Xu Qing could only suppress all his doubts again. His footsteps landed and he walked out of the Qing Heaven.

At the same time, the hidden immortal thoughts that had arrived outside the Qing Heaven also dissipated at this moment.. Before leaving, each gaze lingered with a myriad of emotions as they observed Xu Qing stepping out of the Qing Heaven.

They remembered Xu Qing.

It was impossible not to.

The master of the Aurora Heavenʼs Beyond, a Quasi Immortal wielding power that nearly rivaled that of an immortal, had suppressed a returning True God.

This illustrious battle result was enough to make everyone raise their eyebrows.

After that, they left one by one.

In the Nine Shores Heavenʼs Beyond, in the immortal palace, the figure on the supreme immortal tower nodded slightly. ”Since you grasped this opportunity... and also completed the collecting mission, then...” ”Thereʼs no longer much meaning in staying in the star ring” ”Convey the decree to the Material Procurement Division and let this group of ascenders join the transport team. Together with the other squads, they are to personally deliver the collected materials to the battlefield. ”There is no need for them to return-proceed immediately to the Star Ring God Sealing Array!”

As soon as the Nine Shores Immortal Lord finished speaking, the tall tower shook slightly. After that, the decree from him instantly spread throughout the entire Nine Shores Heaven. It also reached the Poison Lord who was meditating in the Material Procurement. Division.

In an instant, his cyca suddenly opened and he instantly sensed the decree from the Nine Shores Immortal Lord.

His expression changed slightly.

He raised his head and looked into the distance. After a long silence, he finally sighed softly. ”I wonder if this kid is lucky or unlucky...”

The Poison Lord shook his head. Although he was unwilling, he naturally didnʼt dare to disobey the Nine Shores Immortal Lordʼs decree.

He could only sigh and arrange this matter.

At the same time, Xu Qingʼs figure left the Qing Heaven. When he reappeared, he was already in the void zone.

The prison here had already disappeared. However, be it the guards, the wardens, or Star Ring and the others, none of them left. They were all waiting for the outcome.

Even though a month had passed, their hearts were mostly at peace. After all, after the matter of the returning True God was exposed, it was impossible for it to last for a month.

However, the moment they saw Xu Qing, they still felt relieved.

This was especially so after they sensed that Xu Qingʼs aura was clearly stronger than before. Zhou Zhengli immediately stepped forward and bowed. ”Congratulations, Master. You suppressed a True God, your merit is immeasurable!”

When everyone heard this, they all bowed.

There were also waves in their hearts.

They had personally seen Xu Qing advance to the Quasi Immortal Realm and sense the vast immortal embryo before he became the master of a Heavenʼs Beyond.

Moreover, they could sense that his combat strength was close to a Lower Immortal.

At the same time, they also witnessed Xu Qing teleporting with the True God and returning safely.

This feeling of watching the other party grow step by step until he reached a certain height caused these heavenʼs chosen to have thousands of thoughts in their minds.

This was especially so for Star Ring. He silently looked at Xu Qing and sighed inwardly.

The gap was getting larger and larger,

However, this thought didnʼt exist for long before it became his motivation.

Xu Qing looked at everyone in front of him. When he saw that the prison guards and wardens were still around, his heart calmed down.

After all, it was different from the illusion.

In the illusion, after he walked out, the guards and wardens were no longer around.

However, this thought had almost just appeared in Xu Qingʼs mind and before he could respond to everyoneʼs greetings...

At the next instant... the identity tokens of all the ascenders trembled. The decree from the Nine Shores Heavenʼs Beyondʼs Material Procurement Division suddenly echoed in the minds of all the ascenders. ”Due to changes in the Star Ringʼs outer war, origin essence is urgently needed. All procurement teams are hereby ordered to personally transport their gathered origin essence to the frontlines immediately without delay!”

The voice of the decree carried an undeniable authority, causing all ascendersʼ expressions to shift. ”Personally transport it... to the battlefield?”

Qianjun and Piyiʼs bodies trembled. A storm brewed in the minds of these two brothers.

Yuanshan Su frowned. Li Mengtuʼs expression changed and Xie Lingziʼs pupils constricted.

The expressions of the other ascenders changed to varying degrees.

The battlefield was originally a faraway place for all of them.

However, they didnʼt expect that at this moment... they would be going so close to it!

Especially considering their cultivation bases. On the battlefield, they were like a drop in the sea, and their lives and deaths could be reversed at any moment. A calamity could arrive at any time, and the cultivation levels of the enemies they faced were not fixed.

They might encounter Divine Fire. Divine Platform, and even a True God!

Moreover, according to everyoneʼs previous understanding, the war with the fourth star ring was an all-out war between the Lord God and the Immortal Lord level.

That was a battle between gods and immortals, a battle between factions, and even a battle of racial extermination!

Zhou Zhengli had a solemn expression as he looked at Xu Qing.

Star Ringʼs heart also sank as his gaze landed on Xu Qing,

The other cultivators were the same.

As for Xu Qing, who was being stared at by everyone, he was in a daze.

He once again thought of the illusion displayed by that True God.

In the illusion, he also went to the battlefield!

However, the difference was that in the illusion, he would go to the battlefield ten years later.

However, he was going there right now.

It was brought forward by ten years. ”Then, what was the True Godʼs illusion based on?” ”Is it a coincidence...

Xu Qingʼs eyes darkened.
