Outside of Time

Xu Qing, who was walking into the ruins at this moment, didn't know what happened on Wanggu Continent.

But he vaguely felt that the afternoon sky seemed to be a little more red.

Other than that, nothing unusual.

And the extra red is very light, making it difficult for people to associate with it.

So he just raised his head and glanced back, then continued to look at the broken walls and ruins in the ruins.

This ruined city is very different in style from the city Xu Qing went to. The roof structure here is mainly tic-tac-toe, large and small, high and low. It looks very neat, but it also contains some kind of rules. meaning.

At the same time, although the entire city has experienced the ravages of time, you can still see luxury and sophistication.

Every floor tile has a pattern, every house has spiritual stones, every long street is paved with white jade, and every river is covered with gold foil.

But now, these luxurious objects have lost their splendor due to heterogeneous erosion, and have been severely weathered and lost their value. Only when future generations sweep their eyes away can the former glory and wealth of this city emerge in their imaginations.

But after the imagination was over, what came into view was the dung of various birds and animals on the ground, a large amount of mud, and sometimes long insects crawling through the mud on the ground, as well as countless saw-toothed weeds growing.

All of this made the city's decay thoroughly reflected in every detail, especially when Xu Qing saw the word "Ziqing" on a broken monument.

"The map description of the Xixian Pond shows that this is the Prince's Mansion of the Ziqing Shangguo, where the Prince lives."

Xu Qing was walking on the street, stepping on the mud and looking at the messy footprints on the ground. He raised his head and glanced around, noticing the figures of monks wandering past some buildings.

There are not many monks here, but there seem to be people there all year round.

By looking at some of the information about the ruins within the sect, Xu Qing knew that monks had always been here.

They come from all over Nanhuang Continent.

Some are sect cultivators and some are casual cultivators. Because the Phoenix Forbidden City is large and rich in materials, even though it is dangerous, it still becomes a place for many cultivators to obtain resources.

After all, living in troubled times, everything must be fought for, especially those small sects, small forces and casual cultivators.

Every improvement in their cultivation and combat power was mostly through bloodshed and narrow escapes from death.

This kind of suffering is shared by most monks, but the level is different and the danger is relatively higher.

The ruins have always existed for many years, so it can be seen that it is relatively safe, so it has become a place for cultivators who come to the Phoenix Forbidden City to obtain resources.

Xu Qing's arrival attracted the attention of many people, but they all quickly took it back after just one glance. Most people here are cautious in character, and are especially wary of others.

Xu Qing's character is the same.

As he moved forward at this moment, his eyes glanced at both sides, alert to the danger and malice that might come. His speed did not slow down, getting faster and faster, and he galloped towards the center of the ruined city.

Not long after, a temple with a familiar shape appeared in front of him as far as he could see.

Unlike other buildings in the ruined city, the top of Taicang Taoist Temple is round.

If you look down from a high altitude, you can see that there is only one circular building in the entire ruins, and its location is in the center.

With such an arrangement, we can imagine that when this place was prosperous, the status of this temple must have been extremely high.

Xu Qing stared silently, raised his feet and approached.

From a distance, he saw dozens of monks in different clothes, male and female, sitting scattered outside the temple.

Some of these people were in groups of two or three, and some were alone. They were all in a position where they could see the temple gate. Although they all had their legs crossed, they sometimes raised their heads to look into the temple.

As for the cultivation level, most of them have Qi Condensation Dzogchen, and occasionally they do not have the foundation of Life Fire. Only two old men with gray hair and wrinkled faces have reached the level of First Fire.

These two one-fire foundation-building old men, as well as the three or five foundation-building people in the crowd who have not activated life fire, are quite reasonable here. After all, it is not impossible to realize success. Once they realize that Tai Cang's sword is successful, for them It's like reaching the sky in one step.

But the existence of other Qi-Condensing Dzogchen Perfections here seems a little strange at first glance.

But after Xu Qing scanned it, he had a vague answer in his heart.

Because the moment he walked towards it, he felt wisps of greedy malice from the crowd, and then after noticing his own aura, he quickly retracted it like a frightened bird.

At the same time, there are some rotten bones in the surrounding grass that no one cares about.

Here is the Taicang Taoist Temple, the place where you can learn about Taicang's sword.

But here, it is also a place where the Phoenix monks prey on the weak and the strong, and are extremely vicious.

Taking advantage of the reputation of Taicang Taoist Temple, monks come here from time to time. If they are strong, they will be fine. If they are not strong enough, they will die miserably here and lose everything.

In Xu Qing's judgment, the dozens of people outside the temple, even if they deliberately stayed in groups, could not change the fact that they were a gang.

Seeing this scene, Xu Qing was thoughtful and walked over step by step.

Dozens of people outside the Taoist temple exchanged vague glances with each other, but in the end they still did not dare to take action against Xu Qing.

Being able to exist here, they naturally have good eyesight, and they can vaguely see that Xu Qing is not a good person.

At this moment, as Xu Qing approached the temple, he saw the familiar but unfamiliar statues in the temple, and also saw Sheng Yunzi sitting cross-legged and meditating under the statue.

The dazzling light emitted by the golden robe was very dazzling, and the light flowing from the canopy above his head flowed in all directions like water, which was very eye-catching.

Now his eyes are closed, and there is a coldness all over his body, as if all the emotional fluctuations are superfluous to him.

Xu Qing paused, feeling wary in his heart. He didn't pay much attention to Sheng Yunzi in the sect, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually come here to gain insights.

Although Xu Qing has a good cultivation level now, he likes to suppress with absolute strength and is unwilling to fight to the extreme unless it is absolutely necessary.

So after Xu Qing thought about it, although he was interested in the other party's life lamp, there was no need to plunder and have conflicts for no reason. So he did not step into the temple, but planned to find a place outside where he could see the statue of the god to try to understand.

But the tree wants to be quiet, but the wind doesn't stop.

At this moment, Sheng Yunzi in the temple seemed to have found something. His slender eyes slowly opened, and his cold eyes were not mixed with any emotions, like two sharp blades falling directly on Xu Qing outside the temple.

The moment he saw it, he didn't say anything. He raised his right hand and waved outward.

Suddenly, the nothingness in front of him was distorted, and waves appeared out of thin air from all directions, rolling up dust on the ground and gathering together in an instant to form a stone sword.

As soon as the sword came out, it had an astonishing momentum. It released streaks of sword energy and fell on the ground, making a sizzling sound, and ravines appeared on the ground.

Outside the temple, the two One Fire Foundation-Building old men saw this scene, their expressions changed drastically, and they quickly retreated.

They knew that with their own strength, facing this casually formed sword, even if they were only scratched, they would definitely die.

The rest were like this, retreating rapidly.

The moment they retreated, the tip of the sword in the temple turned and pointed at Xu Qing, then rushed straight towards Xu Qing with a roar.

The speed was so fast that it caused a sound that broke through the air and a series of ripples. In an instant, it passed through the temple gate, arrived in front of Xu Qing, and stabbed between the eyebrows.

Xu Qing's expression darkened, he raised his right hand and flicked the approaching stone sword.

There was a loud bang.

The stone sword collapsed and fell into pieces. When it fell in front of Xu Qing, a storm swept around. Wherever it passed, the weeds on the ground broke and the soil flew up like a dust storm.

Fortunately, those dozens of monks evacuated quickly, otherwise they would have been affected and there would be no possibility of survival.

In the dust storm, Xu Qing looked ugly, raised his head and looked at the temple coldly, and his eyes met in mid-air with Sheng Yunzi inside.

"What do you mean?" Xu Qing said slowly.

Sheng Yunzi looked as usual. For him, doing things was all based on his own preferences. He could do anything he wanted and kill anyone he wanted. Especially in his heart, the human race of Nanhuang Continent was not worth mentioning.

As for the Xu Qing in front of him, he didn't know him at first. Even though he paid attention to him because he suppressed Sima Ling, he didn't see him. He just planned to raise some as nourishment.

It was during this period of time when he was enlightening here and listening to the training given to him by Lingyun Sword Sect disciples that he learned about Xu Qing and saw Xu Qing's photo.

He just did it casually, but the other party was actually unscathed. This made a strange light appear in his eyes, and he had the idea of ​​​​devouring Xu Qing now.

However, after thinking about it, he still felt that if he swallowed it now, the taste would be a little worse, so he spoke calmly.

"You took advantage of my absence to kidnap my junior brother?"

"When you get back, give him three bows immediately. Xu Qing, remember, if he loses a hair, I will cut off a finger, no exceptions."

Sheng Yunzi calmly spoke out the words of instructions. After speaking, he ignored Xu Qing and closed his eyes to meditate.

Everyone outside the Taoist temple held their breath, with different expressions, and looked at Xu Qing and Sheng Yunzi.

During this time, they had discovered Sheng Yunzi's identity and realized the other party's domineering attitude. At this moment, they could even see how powerful his attacks were.

At the same time, Xu Qing's identity was also known through words.

"Seven Blood Pupil Sequence Xu Qing?"

"This is the genius of Seven Blood Eyes..."

"So what, you still have to bow your head when facing people from Wanggu Continent."

Xu Qing stood at the door, glanced at Sheng Yunzi's neck, and then looked at the canopy of the life lamp above his head. A cold light flashed in his eyes, with strong murderous intent.

The ancestor of the King Kong Sect inside the black iron sign took in breaths repeatedly when he saw this scene. He did not dare to reveal it easily for fear of being noticed by another real dragon in the script, but he was sighing strongly in his heart.

"In the novels I read, the enemy often bullies the protagonist, and then the protagonist is forced to have no choice but to fight back. It's refreshing, but it also gets a little boring after reading too much."

"Maybe the devil is different here. With his character, once the enemy shows some murderous intent and makes him feel that his life is threatened, he will be filled with murderous intent without the enemy taking action."

Xu Qing did not know the thoughts of the ancestor of the King Kong Sect, but he knew that there was a gap in combat power between himself and Sheng Yunzi, so he did not act rashly at this moment. Instead, he turned around and found a position with the wind and sat down cross-legged without leaving any trace. began to poison.

He wanted to kill this saint.

Because when he suppressed the disciple of Lingyun Sword Sect whom he captured at Yejiu Headquarters, not only his hair fell off, but also his body bones were broken in many places when he hit him on the ground.

According to Sheng Yunzi, a hair is a finger, so breaking so many bones means killing someone.

"Then I'll kill you first!" Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, hiding his murderous intent and not showing any trace of his murderous intent. While continuing to release poison, he was also observing the surroundings, looking for the figure of the other party's protector.

Seeing this scene, the ancestor of the King Kong Sect secretly thought in his heart.

"Demon Xu is spreading poison, and he is going to strike first! This is a battle between two storybooks, and this is a battle between real dragons!!"
