Outside Of Time

Chapter 465 - 465 Qing and Niu Competes

465 Qing and Niu Competes

Xu Qing’s speed was astonishing. Every step he took covered dozens of feet, rapidly shaking off the previous seventh ranked behind him.

The small sect cultivator who was surpassed by Xu Qing felt anxious and helpless at the same time.

“The difference… is too great.”

He knew that Xu Qing was very strong. After all, the other party was the first to reach a height of 10,000 feet. He also knew that he couldn’t compare to him. However, he didn’t expect the other party to be so powerful to such a terrifying extent.

To think that he could erupt with such terrifying might at such a height. This was unbelievable to him.

Under the impact of the resentment of the Absolute Beginning Separation Pillar, his body and soul trembled. The terrifying resentment emitted by this location caused his sea of consciousness to feel as though it was being torn apart.

Xu Qing’s speed didn’t slow down at all as he continued to climb up. After his Ghost Emperor Mountain was further refined, it could absorb even more. Resentful souls formed every few hundred feet in his sea of consciousness at this height.

These resentful souls had all kinds of appearances but Xu Qing realized that they were mostly of nonhuman races and only few were of humans.

If it was in the past, he would have observed it carefully. However, time was limited now. A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes.

They were all suppressed!

The Ghost Emperor Mountain in his sea of consciousness emitted a large amount of light. As it continued to sway, it seemed to have transformed into a god, suppressing all the resentful souls that appeared.

As for Xu Qing, the height he climbed continued to increase. Very soon, he reached 14,000 feet, followed by 15,000 feet.

The black-robed youth from the Litu Sect was at this height.

This black-robed youth had given it his all. His eyes were bloodshot as he continued to move forward.

However, compared to Xu Qing, he was still too slow.

At the next instant, Xu Qing moved past him easily.

Almost at the instant Xu Qing overtook him, the black-robed youth tilted his head and looked in Xu Qing’s direction. A cold glint appeared in his eyes and he let out a low roar. He actually leaped hundreds of feet, wanting to surpass Xu Qing.

However, the moment he leaped up, his sea of consciousness swayed intensely and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He couldn’t continue and could only grab the protruding totem tightly. He looked at Xu Qing’s back view that was rapidly leaving with a heart filled with bitterness.

Before he entered the Litu Sect, he was the top heaven’s chosen in his hometown.

He had once suppressed many of his peers, and it continued even after he entered his first sect. This caused him to once think that he was really a heaven’s chosen and had the qualifications of an ancient sovereign and ruler.

It was only when he entered the Litu Sect for better development that he realized for the first time that there was always someone better. He had encountered more people who were even more amazing than him.

This dealt him a huge blow. This time, he had planned to make use of the advantage of his age to soar into the sky with the help of the Sword Holding Court. However, there were even more heaven’s chosens in the Yinghuang Province, which was larger than the Litu Sect.

He could only look at Xu Qing’s back view as he walked further and further away.

15,000 feet, 15,500 feet, 16,000 feet!

Xu Qing didn’t pay attention to the person he surpassed. He sprinted wildly until he saw Sima Ru.

Sima Ru’s breathing was hurried as she climbed ten feet each jump. Her eyes revealed determination and her expression was filled with tenacity. She didn’t even glance at Xu Qing’s approach.

Xu Qing also didn’t say anything. His body leaped over and he became fifth.

Behind him, Sima Ru’s hand that was holding onto a totem on the pillar shook slightly. She gritted her teeth and continued.

Xu Qing didn’t slow down and continued forward. After surpassing Sima Ru, he reached a height of 17,000 feet. There was also someone at this height. It was the cold female cultivator from the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect who was ranked fourth.

She was biting her lip tightly. Her hands were covered in blood and there was determination in her eyes as she climbed up bit by bit. However, no matter how hard she tried, her speed still slowed down.

She was close to her limit.

She saw Xu Qing and Xu Qing also saw her.

Xu Qing’s speed caused the woman to pant. However, in the end, she could only watch helplessly as Xu Qing leaped past her and reached an even higher height of 18,000 feet.

Here, for the first time, Xu Qing felt the raging power of the resentment impact. His Ghost Emperor Mountain also showed signs of being saturated again. If it was in the past, Xu Qing would choose to end it.

But now, he wanted to continue.

There were three more people in front of him.

The youth with the nose ring, the pockmarked man, and… the Qing Qiu at the front who was already about to reach 20,000 feet.

Almost at the instant Xu Qing looked over, Qing Qiu leaped up and became the first cultivator to reach 20,000 feet. Her breakthrough instantly caused a commotion below.

However, at this height, the sounds coming from below were vague and couldn’t be heard clearly. Moreover, the wind in the surroundings was too strong, causing her body to sway.

Most importantly, after reaching this height, the mournful cries formed by resentment echoed in her mind. It filled her entire mind and she couldn’t care less about anything else.

Also, seeing that Xu Qing was only 2,000 feet away from her, she gritted her teeth fiercely. The evil ghost in the scythe in her hand emitted a red light that filled her entire body.

As the veins on her forehead bulged, her speed soared.

At the same time, the pockmarked middle-aged man also sped up.

His body emitted a chill. Wherever he passed, ice would appear on the Absolute Beginning Separation Pillar. At that moment, his speed continued to increase, becoming the second cultivator to step into 20,000 feet.

As for the third person, it wasn’t the youth with the nose ring but Xu Qing.

Even though the Ghost Emperor Mountain was almost saturated, Xu Qing’s speed didn’t decrease. Even if he didn’t rely on the Ghost Emperor Mountain, with his determination and the strength of his soul, it was enough to support him in climbing the pillar.

After all, although it looked like he had relied on the Ghost Emperor Mountain previously, in reality, every cultivator who could reach this height had their own special methods.

At that moment, Xu Qing directly surpassed the human youth with the nose ring. This youth’s eyes revealed unwillingness as he gritted his teeth and pointed at Xu Qing.

Under this finger, it was as though it had transferred a large amount of resentment from his body toward Xu Qing.

A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes. This was the first person who had attacked when climbing the Absolute Beginning Separation Pillar.

With the other party’s action, the mournful cries in Xu Qing’s ears instantly became much stronger. The resentment in his sea of consciousness also soared to the extreme, forming a gigantic nonhuman with huge wings and a majestic body.

This nonhuman had the face of an eagle and the body of a human. Its entire body was pitch-black and emitted terrifying fluctuations. The moment it was formed, it let out a roar, wanting to destroy Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness.

As for the Ghost Emperor Mountain, it was currently saturated and couldn’t emit any light. Xu Qing’s sea of consciousness trembled intensely. However, at the next moment, as Xu Qing let out a cold snort, the poison pill in his third Heavenly Palace shook slightly.

The roar of the resentful soul stopped abruptly. Its expression revealed horror as it cried out involuntarily.

“Divine Realm!”

At the next moment, this resentful soul collapsed on its own before Xu Qing could suppress it. It was as though it had chosen to make an escape on its own and instantly crawled out of Xu Qing’s body, heading straight for the nose-ring youth who had sent it over.

In the blink of an eye, it entered the youth’s body. The youth’s body trembled and his sea of consciousness was clearly in chaos. Xu Qing didn’t even have to attack. He started coughing blood, his gaze dimmed and his body was rejected by a huge force, directly sweeping him out of the Absolute Beginning Separation Pillar.

Although he was injured, he wouldn’t die. However, at this moment, he also realized that he had done something that threatened his life. Hence, his face was pale and he didn’t dare to look into Xu Qing’s eyes as he rapidly retreated in mid-air.

Xu Qing coldly looked at the youth’s figure and turned to continue climbing.

Compared to the reward of obtaining first place, the matter of this youth could be resolved later.

Xu Qing leaped up and directly stepped on 20,000 feet height. At that moment, 500 feet in front of him was the pockmarked middle-aged man and 1,000 feet away was Qing Qiu.

Almost at the same time that Xu Qing looked up, the pockmarked middle-aged man suddenly turned his head and looked at Xu Qing.

“Captain, I’ve been looking for you for a long time,” Xu Qing calmly said.

In the past month or so, whenever he saw the disciples of the Mystic Nether Sect, he would think of that letter. When he thought of that letter, he would grit his teeth and really wanted to beat up the captain.

The pockmarked middle-aged man coughed and smiled. He glanced at Xu Qing and suddenly spoke.

“Little Qing, shall we compete again?”

“If you win, I’ll let you beat me up. If you lose, return my money and obediently help me deal with Purple Mystic Fairy. Otherwise, I don’t even dare to return to the sect or see the ancestor. I have a f*cking home, but I can’t return to it. I’m also suffering.”

Xu Qing’s eyes gleamed. He could tell that the captain was serious. Hence, he also nodded seriously.

The first time the two of them competed was back then in the Forbidden Sea.

The losing party had to wear women’s clothes and disguise as the princess of the Sea Corpse Race.

Now, this was the second time.

Just as they reached an agreement, the anxious voice of the evil ghost echoed in the mind of Qing Qiu.

“It’s them. Mad Dog and Ghost Hand are behind you. I just heard them talking about competing to see who will be first.”

“This is too much, too presumptuous. They don’t take you seriously at all!”

“Can you endure it? How about turning back and perishing with them?”

“You keep shouting about perishing every day. Shut up!” Qing Qiu let out a low shout and a red light appeared in her eyes. A red light also spread out from her body and her speed instantly soared to 22,000 feet.

However, at this moment, the captain moved.

A monstrous blue light erupted from his body. This light illuminated the sky, as though it had dyed the surrounding sky. One could even faintly see the blood vessels in his entire body.

If one could see through his skin, they would definitely be able to see that his blood was no longer red but blue.

A face appeared in his pupils. There were also faces in the eyes of the face. Layer by layer, they transformed into evil and mystery, exchanging for an incomparably astonishing speed.

He leaped 1000 feet with one jump and surpassed Qing Qiu after three jumps, reaching 23,000 feet!

At this moment, the expressions of the Sword Holder Elders who were watching from the Sword Holding Court changed as they looked at the captain.

“Nightmare Forbidden Art, Dao of Spirit Sealing!”

“An almighty sealed an unknown existence in this kid’s body. That almighty’s level is too high. His Dao technique conceals it, so I can’t see what is sealed clearly.”
