Outside of Time

Chapter 1094 The unknown world

The sky and the earth are spinning, and there is no difference between heaven and earth.

The space seemed endless, and the next moment it was extremely small.

Time seems to stretch out, and the next moment becomes fleeting again.

They merged with each other to form a huge and unfathomable whirlpool, swallowing up the Starry Sky Tower where Xu Qing was.

The terrifying power exploded within, forming a vast traction force that surpassed the extremes of the storm, destroying everything and destroying everything.

Falling on the Starlight Tower also affects the Starlight Tower itself and the route forward.

Compared with it, the Starlight Tower is like a lonely boat in the raging waves, vulnerable to a blow.

Just in the blink of an eye, outside the Starlight Tower, the layers that Zhang San added later collapsed and shattered, exploded into countless fragments, and scattered in all directions.

Those fragments were pulled and shattered again, turned into fly ash, and finally dissipated in the vortex of time and space.

Only the original ruined tower, which had lost all the acquired modifications, had not been destroyed in the vortex, and was rotating rapidly under the power of the vortex.

The broken tower itself is spinning, and it is also circling with the pull of the whirlpool, creating a sense of chaos.

Even if you look carefully, you can see that the rotation speed of the broken tower itself is much faster than the rotation speed of the vortex.

This is due to the material differences between the two.

This different rotational speed formed a terrifying pulling force, causing Xu Qing in the Starlight Tower to feel an extreme impact.

Although he was sitting cross-legged in the tower, his body was already floating and turning.

Unable to control myself.

And it is also inconsistent with the rotation speed of the tower it is in, it is faster.

As for the reason, it is also determined by the different materials between them.

So at this moment, to be precise, the whirlpool, the broken tower, and Xu Qing are all spinning, and each is different.

The pull formed in this way is natural and extreme.

Xu Qing's body trembled, as if it was about to tear apart.

What caused him more pain came from his soul.

It is difficult to describe the specific cognition now. He only feels that everything he perceives is clear in the previous breath and blurry in the next breath. Even the color is like this when viewed within the scope of the spiritual mind.

Sometimes two colors, sometimes nine colors, sometimes colorless, sometimes chaos.

This is the scene that appears in Xu Qing's mind at this moment.

As for his eyes, they were not opened.

That was what the Palace Master of Xia Xian Palace warned Xu Qing when he asked about the method of traveling through the original sea.

During the passage, Xu Qing was warned not to open his eyes because of his insufficient cultivation.

So Xu Qing's eyes were always closed.

And this passage process lasted for an extremely long time, as if this road forward was an endless abyss.

I don't know how much time passed, but the pain Xu Qing endured continued to increase. His body was almost unable to feel the pain, as if it almost no longer belonged to him.

His soul was even more like this. Under this change in cognition, it fell into extreme chaos.

The torture caused by all this made Xu Qing feel a strong life and death crisis.

"This can't go on like this. The whirlpool, the pull between the remaining tower and me at different speeds will result in either...the collapse of the remaining tower, or the collapse of my body and spirit. The latter is the most likely."

“And I’ve had a similar experience with this feeling!”

At this moment when his body was torn apart and his soul was about to go crazy, Xu Qing bit his tongue fiercely, using the pain at the tip of his tongue to forcefully stimulate himself to stabilize his mind.

The effect is not obvious, it only works for a moment.

Although it was only for a moment, Xu Qing still used this fleeting time to find the source of similar experiences.

That was... the scene where human nature, divinity and animal nature broke out in the Moon Sacrifice Domain.

At that time, he was also caught in this kind of chaos, unable to reach balance, and his soul was about to collapse.

The final solution was that he found the anchor!

This achieves balance and calms the mind.

"Anchor... balance..."

In the chaos of human nature, divinity, and animal nature, Xu Qing's anchor was his obsession and regret for the flower of life.

"Then now..."

After a few breaths, Xu Qing made a decisive decision and gave up following the warnings of the Xiaxian Palace Master, because continuing on would be too passive and life or death would be unknown.

That being the case, he decided to take matters into his own hands.

Xu Qing's eyes suddenly opened at this moment.

The moment it opened and closed, he saw the Starlight Tower and felt an even stronger dizziness.

In his eyes, the tower was rotating rapidly, especially when he himself was also rotating, and the feeling of chaos was extremely strong.

Xu Qing's eyes were bloodshot, and his cultivation continued to explode. He made hand gestures and waved around, using the power of cultivation to adjust his rotation speed.

Finally, after dozens of attempts and at the cost of spitting out a lot of blood, he finally reduced his own speed and slowly reached the same speed as the tower.

The moment they rotated at the same speed, most of the tearing feeling in the soul and body finally dissipated.

He and the tower reached a balance, becoming one with the same rotation direction and speed.

In this way, the pulling will naturally be reduced.

This is what Xu Qing thought of, anchor!

Xu Qing exhaled a long breath.

"Myself, the broken tower, and the vortex outside, the rotation speed and direction of the three are exactly the same, and they balance each other. This is the anchor!"

"Now, let me and the broken tower match the speed and direction of the vortex outside."

Xu Qing did not dare to relax at this moment. After analyzing it in his heart, he relied on his control over the divine vine to try to indirectly control the broken tower and slowly adjust it.

Time passed, and it was unknown how long it had passed. Finally, under Xu Qing's careful control, the speed of his and the broken tower decreased.

Gradually, it reached a balance with the rotation speed of the vortex.

At the moment of mutual balance, although the three parties seemed to be rotating, because the speed and direction were the same, in Xu Qing's perception... it was as if he, the broken tower and the vortex were all still.

The moment this sense of stillness appeared in his heart, Xu Qing also saw the outside world.

He saw the vast vortex, and saw that time seemed to flow inside.

He saw countless spaces alternating with each other inside.

He even saw a series of blurred historical scenes, emerging in the vortex, and interlaced with the pictures of the future.

Vaguely, he seemed to see himself...

But before he could see clearly, time and space, under the power of this vortex, completely merged together.

The roar came from the vortex, from the broken tower, and from Xu Qing's mind.

The next moment, the broken tower and he completely merged into the vortex.

Disappeared.

As the roar in Xu Qing's mind became stronger, he could no longer suppress it and fell asleep.

...

In the unknown star ring, in the unknown world.

The earth was withered and yellow, filled with spider web-like cracks, and the same was true in all directions.

The sky was pitch black, with three eyes with murderous intent hanging high above, looking at the earth.

This world did not have much light, only the three eyes on the sky, like the moon, emitting weak light, covering the whole world.

It was hazy and deadly at the same time.

Time passed, and a day passed.

There was one more eye in the sky.

Not long after the fourth eye appeared, a vortex appeared on the dry and cracked earth in this world.

This vortex only existed for a breath before it dissipated.

A broken tower was left behind.

After a while, in the ruined tower, Xu Qing slowly opened his eyes. He was confused at first, but then he became alert and looked around to sense the outside world.

After a moment, Xu Qing frowned.

He didn't know if this was the fifth star ring.

Although it was likely, the appearance outside made him hesitate.

Because according to his understanding, he was passing through the primordial sea, so the place where he appeared should also be the primordial sea of ​​the star ring he went to.

So he instinctively looked at his shoulder.

The mud fox, for some reason, really became a mud sculpture, motionless on his shoulder.

Xu Qing was silent and sensed his injuries.

Then he did not choose to go out immediately, but closed his eyes and meditated.

Two days later, as his injuries recovered, Xu Qing opened his eyes.

After a moment of silence, he got up and walked out of the ruined tower. When he stood outside, he looked up at the six eyes in the sky.

"One more a day?"

Xu Qing murmured.

It was quiet all around, there was no wind, and there was no breath.

It was as if this world was in extreme withering.

Xu Qing was not unfamiliar with this feeling.

Before he entered the Seven Blood Eyes, he had lived like this in the wilderness of Nanhuangzhou for several years.

The difference was that he was still a mortal at that time.

"First, we need to see what the state of this world is, and then look for life to explore whether this place is the fifth star ring."

"If it is the fifth star ring, we must go to Xiandu as soon as possible..."

"If not..."

Xu Qing thought about it and put away the broken tower.

After experiencing the vortex, this tower is now in ruins. Since it will be used in the future when returning to the ninth star ring, it is not convenient to continue using it now.

"After determining the star ring, we must find a place to repair this tower."

After doing all this, Xu Qing did not hesitate. With vigilance, he shook his body forward and disappeared in an instant.

He began to explore.

A day later, the seventh eye appeared in the sky.

The scattered light gradually revealed a bloody color.

Xu Qing's figure was not in the blood light, he appeared underground in this world.

There, he saw a huge coffin.

Buried deep in the earth.

Countless marks, countless runes, countless chains bound and surrounded the coffin, and around the coffin, there was also a huge formation.

This formation was always running, extracting the vitality of the being in the coffin, making it diffuse outside and nourishing the world.

After staring for a long time, Xu Qing's pupils slowly shrank.

"Inside the coffin is a god..."

Xu Qing slowly stepped back.

Another day, the eighth eye appeared in the sky, and the blood light it emitted was a little thicker.

In this blood light, Xu Qing's figure appeared on the top of a mountain.

There was a city at the foot of the mountain.

In the blood light, the city looked weird and ominous.

Staring at the city, Xu Qing's eyes showed thought.

In two days, he went to many places.

Not only the coffins underground, but also outside, he saw life here.

They were not human, but a kind of human-like race, with blue skin and triangular pupils.

Most of them were monks.

It's just that no matter whether they are ordinary people or cultivators, everyone is skinny, lifeless, and lifeless, like a walking corpse.

In addition, the cultivators here... the highest level is only the Nascent Soul.

Even in the city that Xu Qing is looking at now, in his perception, the three most powerful cultivators in it are all Nascent Soul.

"Could it be that this is a small world?"

"But judging from the nutrients absorbed by the coffin to nourish this world, this should not be the case here."

Xu Qing was thoughtful, took a step out, and stepped into the city.

Walking inside, the cultivators here could not detect the strangers around them at all. The difference in cultivation between each other made Xu Qing here. If he didn't want to, no one could sense it at all.

In this way, Xu Qing walked all the way in the city, saw pedestrians, saw shops, saw cultivators, without exception, they were all withered, skinny, and the most breath exuded from their bodies was despair.

Xu Qing pondered, looked up at the eight eyes in the sky, and then found a ancestral hall in the city.

There are the most monks here, and the buildings are luxurious and exquisite, which attracted Xu Qing's attention.

When he walked into the ancestral hall, the first thing that caught Xu Qing's eyes was the altar.

On it, nine bloody eyes were enshrined.

And the murals carved around described myths and legends.

This was exactly the information Xu Qing needed.

So he looked at it immediately, and gradually from these murals, he saw the story of this world.

This was originally a peaceful world. Many years ago, an evil sun suddenly appeared in the sky.

His appearance caused the world to fall into withering and death, and all living beings were miserable.

Finally, in this misery and despair, nine heroes appeared. They killed the evil sun, but they were seriously injured and dying.

So, the nine heroes turned into the way of heaven and became nine eyes to protect all living beings.

It was just because they were too seriously injured that year, so in order to be able to protect for a long time, they needed some vitality to nourish every nine days.

From then on, all the living beings in this world were willing to sacrifice their lives every time the nine eyes appeared in the sky.

"Nine eyes, nine heroes."

"The underground gods should be the evil sun in this legend."

"Then who are these nine heroes..."

Xu Qing withdrew his eyes from the mural. In his opinion, this so-called legend was just a beautification for better harvesting.

"But there is a clue after all."

Xu Qing took a step forward, and his figure disappeared. When he appeared, he was already on the mountain outside the city.

Standing there, Xu Qing looked calm. He simply sat cross-legged there, recovering from the injuries caused by his whirlpool, while looking up at the eight blood-red eyes in the sky, silently waiting for the appearance of the ninth eye.

He believed that when the ninth eye appeared, he would be able to see the world more clearly.
