Outside Of Time

Chapter 425 - 425 Falling Moon Canyon

425 Falling Moon Canyon

The blue sky was clear of clouds.

The first rays of dawn shone on the ground, illuminating the main city of the Eight Sects Alliance.

With a roar that echoed in the sky, ripples appeared in the sky. A black wyvern with huge wings raised a violent wind and soared into the sky from the Seven Blood Eyes.

At first, the wyvern was only 1,000 feet tall. However, in the next moment, as its body trembled, it became visibly larger.

Soon, it grew to more than 60,000 feet tall!

When it spread its wings, it gave off a feeling that it could blot out the sky.

A terrifying aura spread out from its body, causing the clouds and wind to stir violently and a storm to rise.

From afar, one could see countless buildings on the back of the black wyvern.

There were a large number of figures inside the buildings.

Xu Qing was among them.

This wyvern was one of Old Master Seventh’ three great wings.

As for the other people, they were all disciples of the Seven Blood Eyes who were participating in the Blood Massacre Mission.

Not all of them fought for sentiments. Many of them were attracted by the heavy rewards.

However, this was the style of the Seven Blood Eyes. There were both advantages and disadvantages to it, but in this chaotic world, the pros outweighed the cons.

At this moment, there were two figures standing in the highest building in front of Xu Qing.

They were Old Master Seventh and Ancestor Xue Lianzi.

The two of them stood facing the wind, their robes fluttering wildly. Their eyes were cold, and their killing intent turned into waves of coldness.

The two of them were personally leading the Seven Blood Eyes in this operation.

Behind the wyvern, the war fortress formed by the Sixth Peak slowly rose into the sky.

The huge mountain gave off a heavy pressure, allowing everyone who saw it to feel its might.

The disciples of the Sixth Peak, whether it was out of their relation with Lord Sixth or out of benefits, were all participating.

The sects participating in this operation were the Soaring Cloud Sword Sect, the Mystic Nether Sect, and the Bizarre Hunting Sect.

The four sects moved out, with their respective ancestors among them. The Taboo magic treasures of the eight sects were initiated at the same time, ready to be activated.

As the energy of these Taboos spread, nine huge ancient bronze swords flew out of the Soaring Cloud Sword Sect. The Soaring Cloud Ancestor and the sect master were filled with killing intent.

In the direction of the Bizarre Hunting Sect, a huge, bizarre eye that was seventy to eighty thousand feet long appeared in the sky. The eye seemed to contain the cosmos, and countless Bizarre Hunting Sect cultivators could be seen inside.

The Mystic Nether Sect’s momentum was even more majestic. A terrifying tombstone rose from it.

There were blood-colored runes carved on the tombstone. As soon as it appeared, it exuded an endless ancient feeling. Purple Mystic Fairy stood on the tombstone with a large number of Mystic Nether Sect disciples behind her.

As the four sects rose up into the sky, the Alliance Leader’s enormous face filled the sky, and his eyes shone with profound light as he looked off into the distance.

“After investigation on the intelligence on Illuminate, four of their secret locations have been verified in Yinghuang Province. Today, our alliance will attack these locations. The four sects will each go to one location and kill the Illuminate cultivators to avenge the deaths of our compatriots!”

“The Taboos of the Alliance are all initiated, so they can be activated at any moment. The Alliance as a whole is also ready to follow up.”

“Furthermore, this operation has already been reported to the Sword Holding Court. The Sword Holding Court attaches great importance to this matter and will monitor the entire scene. If Night Dove’s master appears again, he will definitely be unable to escape calamity!”

“Also, the Sword Holding Court has a way to resist the light in that box.”

“Then, set off!”

In response to the Alliance Leader’s words, rumbling sounds filled the world as the four sects charged forward. Teleportation portals appeared in the air as they shot toward the four locations.

The location chosen by the Seven Blood Eyes was the place where Saintly Star’s traces had been found. Xue Lianzi had used his status as a member of the Senate to suppress the Soaring Cloud Sword Sect and personally take over this location.

Although Illuminate was the mastermind behind Lord Sixth’s death, Saintly Star and his father had helped in this. Therefore, the Seven Blood Eyes had to kill these two people.

Saintly Star’s traces were in the Minor Affairs Sect.

Because of some unknown deal between the Alliance and the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect, the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect didn’t make a big fuss after the dam was destroyed. Instead, they tacitly agreed to the matter.

The Minor Affairs Sect, which was chosen to be sacrificed, could only swallow its bitterness and choose a new location to rebuild the sect.

However, no matter what, the Minor Affairs Sect was considered an external branch of the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect. Therefore, in order to appease the Minor Affairs Sect, the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect relaxed the restrictions on promotion quota.

As a result, the number of disciples that the Minor Affairs Sect could send to the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect was greatly increased.

The Grand Affairs Immortal Sect was different from other sects in that they almost never accepted disciples outside. Most of them were determined by fate. For example, Li Zimei was chosen because she was fated.

The biggest source of disciples in their sect was actually the promotion quota of their hundred or so subordinate sects. These quotas were distributed depending on the strength of the subordinate sects.

In the past, the Minor Affairs Sect only had four spots every year, but now, it had increased to eight.

This was extremely beneficial to the Minor Affairs Sect. This was because countless mortals and disciples in the Yinghuang Province who wanted to join the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect would be more enthusiastic about joining the Minor Affairs Sect to compete for this opportunity.

After all, the most powerful faction in the Yinghuang Province, other than the Sword Holding Court, which represented the orthodox lineage of the human race, was actually the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect.

For some unknown reason, Saintly Star, who had betrayed the sect, was secretly assigned to the Minor Affairs Sect. He changed his appearance, concealed his identity, and entered the sect as an ordinary disciple.

One could imagine that his mission was most likely to use the Minor Affairs Sect to enter the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect.

According to the intelligence of the Alliance and the information that Old Master Seventh had received by using some unknown method, they found that other than Saintly Star, there should be many peripheral members like Saintly Star in the Minor Affairs Sect. There was even an 80 to 90% chance that core members of Illuminate were among them.

As for whether Night Dove and his master would appear, the Seven Blood Eyes was not sure.

However, this operation was to lure them out. This battle looked like the four sects were attacking one point each, but in reality, it was a joint attack by the Alliance and the Sword Holding Court.

However, the Alliance was in the open while the Sword Holding Court was watching from the dark.

Clearly, the Sword Holding Court was very interested in Night Dove’s master.

Xu Qing also knew about these things.

As he looked forward with killing intennt, the wyvern and the Sixth Peak behind it rushed into the huge teleportation array in front of them.

As the wyvern let out a long cry that could shatter the sky, its figure appeared above the Falling Moon Plains of the Yinghuang Province.

The Falling Moon Plains was located in the northeast of the Yinghuang Province. It was between the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect and the ice plains in the north. Although it had cold weather, the spiritual energy there was not bad. It was home to thousands of sects of various sizes.

At the edge of the Falling Moon Plains, there was a huge canyon called the Falling Moon Canyon.

It was none other than the territory of the relocated Minor Affairs Sect.

The Minor Affairs Sect used to be a medium-sized force, but after suffering the attack, they had lost a lot of power. Now, they had less than ten thousand disciples.

The sun was shining brightly in the morning, and most of the disciples in the sect were busy cultivating. Therefore, the roars of the wyvern and the sudden appearance of black clouds in the sky caused chaos in the Minor Affairs Sect.

However, before the Minor Affairs Sect could react, the wyvern closed in. A storm swept across the land, and the Sixth Peak floated above, emitting waves of terrifying might.

At the same time, in the Sea Corpse Race’s territory, the huge ancient bronze mirror floating above the fourteen ancestral corpse statues suddenly rotated. The direction of the mirror was fixed at the Falling Moon Canyon in Yinghuang Province.

As the ancestral corpse statues rumbled and a huge force surged in, the seven blood-colored eyes opened at the same time.

Their gazes locked onto the Falling Moon Canyon.

In an instant, blood light surged into the sky in the Falling Moon Canyon.

Amidst the shock and exclamations of the entire Minor Affairs Sect including its higher-ups, the blood-red light spread out, causing at least one thousand disciples in the sect to emit a black aura.

This aura was extremely obvious in the blood light.

At the instant it spread out, all of their disguises were dispelled, and their expressions changed as they revealed their true appearances.

Quite a few of them were ordinary disciples of the Minor Affairs Sect. However… there were seven or eight Golden Core Cultivators among them. Even more shocking were the Nascent Soul grand elders of the sect. Their appearances suddenly changed to that of strangers.

Everyone in the Minor Affairs Sect had different expressions.

The sect master’s face darkened.

The others were surprised by what was happening, but not him.

Because of his close relationship with the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect, he was the least likely to betray them. Therefore, he had received a reminder from the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect that the Minor Affairs Sect had been infiltrated by a large number of Illuminate Cultivators.

Seeing all of this happening, the Minor Affairs Sect’s sect master’s expression turned ugly, and he immediately sent out a decree.

“All disciples, kill the cultivators who are emitting the black aura. These people are Illuminate cultivators!”

“There’s no need for you to do anything!” The moment the sect master opened his mouth, Xue Lianzi’s ferocious voice echoed. He waved his sleeve, and the Taboo power of the Seven Blood Eyes erupted once more, sealing the area.

In the next moment, Old Master Seventh gave an order. The wyvern roared, and the Seven Blood Eyes disciples turned into rays of light, charging toward the Minor Affairs Sect.

They ignored the ordinary Minor Affairs Sect disciples. They only killed the cultivators whose bodies were emitting black aura.

Xu Qing’s eyes had long locked onto an ordinary disciple of the Minor Affairs Sect.

Under the illumination of the Seven Blood Eyes’ Taboo, the ordinary disciple’s appearance changed and he returned to his original appearance.

He had a handsome face and emitted Golden Core energy fluctuations.

He was… Saintly Star.

Saintly Star’s expression changed drastically. He was extremely shocked that the Seven Blood Eyes had found him so quickly.

However, his cultivation base was already different from what Xu Qing had seen before.

The Golden Core fluctuations on Saintly Star’s body were obvious. The original Golden Crow in his right eye seemed to have been sealed. As it dimmed, its effect also reversed. It went from absorbing his life force to being occupied by his will, turning into his own Golden Crow eye.

The moment Xu Qing saw Saintly Star, there was no one else in his eyes.

At Old Master Seventh’s command, Xu Qing’s eyes flickered with intense killing intent as he charged straight toward Saintly Star.

This time, he would definitely kill Saintly Star!
