Outside Of Time

Chapter 1698 Sealing the Heaven

The heavens.

There was a voice of admiration and praise, saying, ”Excellent.”

There was a profound and unfathomable gaze, harboring mysteries.

There was an aloof will, observing indifferently.

And there was an authoritative presence, calmly watching, ultimately transmitting a secret that only it could perceive:

”Turn the pages of the history book beyond the ultimate heavens, and unfold a new era belonging to the future generation!

”Aurora, your talent is unparalleled, capable of relinquishing everything. And your son, with a heart of unmatched magnanimity, could also abandon it all... Father and son, both alike. L... am indeed inferior to you”

Outsiders didnʼt know about the thoughts of the heavens. At this moment, in the Qing Heaven, as the Aurora Immortal Palace transformed into Xu Qingʼs immortal foundation and merged into his immortal embryo, his aura erupted skyward with terrifying intensity.

It grew stronger and stronger, until it became a breathtaking phenomenon, leaving an indelible mark across the entire Heavenʼs Beyond.

Then, amidst the collective shock of everyone present, an indescribable pressure naturally emanated from Xu Qing. It was a presence that, at first glance, instinctively stirred a sense of reverence deep within their hearts.

This was a sensation akin to facing a god a manifestation of origin essence that had become extremely dense. More than that, it was the innate authority carried by one who had ascended to become the master of a Heavenʼs Beyond, Under this majesty, Star Ring instinctively lowered his head.

He, who had the Fourth True Monarchʼs inheritance, also had karma with Aurora Heavenʼs Beyond. This karma lasted until now and gathered on Xu Qing.

Yuanshan Suʼs delicate body trembled. She wanted to restrain herself but she couldnʼt.

The scenes from the mirror image appeared in her mind. Vaguely, in her eyes, Xu Qing seemed to have become that... Young Lord Aurora again.

Li Mengtu also had a blank expression. He thought of his identity in the mirror image of the Aurora Immortal Palace.

Xie Lingzi instinctively took a few steps back and put away all his disloyal thoughts.

If they were all like this, there was no need to mention the other ascenders. Al this moment, all of them were in turmoil.

Among them, the storm in Zhou Zhengliʼs heart grew even greater,

A strange light appeared in his eyes and an iron plate appeared in his hand. He squeezed it fiercely, causing the iron plate to pierce his palm. As blood splashed around, he bit the tip of his tongue.

More blood flowed out and flowed back into his eyes, dyeing his pupils red. This wasnʼt the end. The Ordinance in his body erupted at this moment. Connecting the blood from the tip of his tongue and palm, the former gushed into his eyes while the latter was sent into the iron plate to circulate its ultimate secret art.

With this secret art, he looked at Xu Qing again!

What he had said earlier was all true.

He indeed wanted to assist Xu Qing. He was indeed gambling and knew some secrets.

At the same time, he really wanted to follow and obtain a huge harvest in the future.

However, amidst these thoughts, he had another motive.

That was, he wanted to see Xu Qing clearly!

He wanted to see Xu Qing in his foresight.

Even if it was abstract.

Even if it was blurry.

Even if it was just a little...

He thought of a way to see that trace!

This was his Dao.

From the moment he first saw Xu Qing, a premonition took root in his mind. This premonition grew increasingly profound and increasingly intense, until it ultimately transformed into an unshakable obsession.

”To see is to witness the Dao.

”With this, my Ordinance can transcend, and my cultivation can break through as well!”

However, Zhou Zhengli understood that under normal circumstances, bis foresight couldnʼt do this, so he had been waiting

At this moment, when Xu Qing broke through, a storm rose, the world rang out, the starry sky trembled, and the Qing Heaven shone!

The moment the Ruler advanced to the Quasi Immortal Realm, it was like a closed door had opened.

Although only a gap had been opened, it was enough to see through the gap outside the door!

Hence, Zhou Zhengli seized this opportunity, In the gap, he... saw it!

The moment he saw it, Zhou Zhengliʼs entire body trembled. A sound that surpassed heavenly lightning erupted in his mind.

Blood gushed out of his eyes, nostrils, mouth, ears....

However, he was laughing,

His laughter was full of excitement.

Amidst his excitement, there was also extreme horror.

”Unfamiliar star ring... the indescribably terrifying fragmented-face... and the throne that sits on that fragmented-face...

”Also, the person on the throne...”

”Heʼs looking at me. Heʼs...”

Zhou Zhengliʼs body rumbled and his aura soared. His Ordinance instantly advanced.

His cultivation had only been a step away from the Quasi Immortal Realm.

What was lacking wasnʼt his origin essence but his Ordinance.

Thus, in this instant, as his Ordinance advanced, his immortal embryo immediately erupted with power.

He advanced to the Quasi Immortal Realm here.

Dense fog rapidly enveloped his body. This was formed by his Ordinance. Just

like how his Dao was veiled in secrecy, his advancement... was impenetrable to outsiders.

The other ascenders around him, upon sensing this scene, experienced yet another wave of inner turbulence.

Yet, Xu Qing paid this no heed.

He opened his eyes.

In them, the vast expanse of the starry skies shimmered, encapsulating the

mysteries of the cosmos.

Between his brows, a stellar vortex spun endlessly, boundless and profound to the extreme.

At this moment, the entire Heavenʼs Beyond rumbled.

Countless races instinctively knelt down in their respective territories.

They all trembled.

This was because.... a pair of eyes appeared in Heavenʼs Beyond as Xu Qing opened his eyes. They appeared above the heads of all living beings and above all things.

Looking at Qing Heaven!

That was Xu Qingʼs eyes.

With the authority of the immortal palace in his body, he looked at all living beings.

This gaze was omniscient.

At that moment, Xu Qing saw countless traces.

These traces contained all the universes, all races, and the godʼs prisons in the

Heavenʼs Beyond, as well as the resources that originally belonged to this Heavenʼs Beyond.

A long time later, Xu Qing sighed inwardly.

He retracted his gaze.

Because the Aurora Heavenʼs Beyond had been without a master for many

years, the various races here had descended into chaos and entanglement. The weaker races had long been eradicated, while the stronger ones each carried the karmic ties of other Heavenʼs Beyonds behind them,

As for the divine prisons... cases of the wardens plundering its resources were rampant. Essentially, there was hardly any left.

For example, prisons that contained True Gods were gone.

After all, such origin essence resources were usually the first to be plundered. Either the wardens stole them or they were taken away by the other Heavenʼs Beyonds.

To a certain extent, the Chaotic Sky Universe was a miniature version of the entire Heavenʼs Beyond,

”Thinking about it, the True God prison in the Chaotic Sky Universe was also left behind because that Lower Immortal wasnʼt willing to pay a huge price to take it away previously due to his own reasons.

Xu Qing pondered.

He was aware that it wasnʼt that he couldnʼt take these back.

However, he needed strength and a lot of time to deal with it at the same time. The current Xu Qing didnʼt have either.

Hence, after he fell silent, a dark glint flashed in his eyes.

He calmly spoke and the term ʼQing Heavenʼ echoed!

”An hour from now, this Heaven will be sealed. During this time, if any race wishes to leave, I will not stop them!”

”However, while the races may leave, the resources that belong to this Heaven shall not be taken!”

For those races tied to other Heavenʼs Beyonds, their continued presence here held little value for Xu Qing. Moreover, the events of the past had their own historical causes and bore no connection to him.

What he wanted wasnʼt a chaotic Heavenʼs Beyond either.

If those races left, it would cause there to be almost no Heavenʼs Beyondʼs life to be almost empty.

However... it would also become clean.

Since that was the case, rather than forcing those races to stay, it was better to open the gate and let them out.

Thus, even if the departure of these races would leave the Heavenʼs Beyond nearly devoid of life, it mattered not.

Hence, very soon, many races immediately contacted the forces behind them and began to migrate.

Just like that, time passed bit by bit.

Although an hour was a little rushed for the various races, they still did their best to leave in this time limit.

The time limit arrived.

The immortal palace in Xu Qingʼs body trembled.

His voice echoed.

”Heaven, seal.”

At the next instant, streams of light instantly rose across this Heaven. With Xu Qing as the center, they spread to all the universes at a speed that exceeded understanding.

After they enveloped the entire Heavenʼs Beyond, the permission to leave was closed and the starry sky was sealed.

From now on, no one could enter or leave this Heavenʼs Beyond without. Xu Qingʼs permission!

After doing this, the fog around Zhou Zhengli gradually dissipated, revealing his figure. He walked out step by step. The moment he stood in the starry sky, he was no longer a Ruler.

He was a Quasi Immortal.

However, his face was as humble as ever as he bowed deeply to Xu Qing,

”Congratulations, Lord Qing!”

Regardless of their faction or background, the others here also bowed.

This was respect for the Heavenʼs Beyond and also recognition.

Xu Qing stared at Zhou Zhengli.

A long time later, he calmly spoke.

”We should leave”

Although the immortal palace was the foundation and he had this Heavenʼs Beyond, these were only Xu Qingʼs foundation. He still had the duty as a Material Procurer.

After saying that, Xu Qing raised his hand and waved it at the starry sky.

The fluctuations of the starry sky formed a path of departure.

Xu Qing walked on this path. The others also suppressed their emotions and walked over one after another.

Zhou Zhengli was the same. However, as he walked behind Xu Qing and looked at Xu Qingʼs back view in front of him, the storm in his heart was still intense.

He couldnʼt help but recall what he had seen earlier.

”That person sitting on the throne and looking down at me... is bim!

Zhou Zhengli lowered his head and quickened his pace with determination,

Just like that, the group of them walked on the path to the starry sky. With the enhancement of this path, every step they took crossed many universes. Finally, they reached the end of the Heavenʼs Beyond and stepped out.

The moment they left, an unfamiliar starry sky entered their vision.

This place was the boundary between Heavenʼs Beyonds and was also known as the Heavenless Zone.

Generally speaking, such a zone was mostly barren and desolate. However, here, perhaps it was because Aurora Heavenʼs Beyond had once lost its owner, causing the influence of the neighboring Heavens to spread.

As a result, a certain degree of prosperity emerged, and within this area, star systems with life and civilizations can still be found.

Not only that, but even the seaweed sent its divine sense.

”Thereʼs a divine prison inside with dense origin essence!”

As soon as this divine sense appeared, Xu Qing turned his head. Behind him,

Star Ring and the others were also staring at each other. All of their eyes revealed a strange glint.

They werenʼt full yet.

They were still unsatisfied with this trip.

Hence, after sensing this divine prison, their gazes flickered. After that, some people looked at Xu Qing,

This place wasnʼt within the scope of their collection mission.

Xu Qing fell silent.

”Thereʼs quite a lot of origin essence here, the nine-colored ice could be here.

Star Ring suddenly spoke.

When everyone heard this, they were even more tempted.

Xu Qing thought about it and calmly spoke.

”Itʼs not appropriate to use this excuse many times.”

Everyone fell silent.

Zhou Zhengliʼs eyes flashed as he spoke softly.

”Then... we are going to quell the rebellion of gods trying to break out of the prison?”
