Outside of Time

Only a person with such a spirit was worthy of being the number one heaven's chosen of the Flame Moon Race.

Only such domineeringness could uphold the name of Flame Mystic, named after the race.

What she wanted wasn't the Soul Accumulation. What she wanted… was God!

She wanted to turn the body of the Immortal Emperor into nutrients for herself. She wanted to mold her divine soil and burn her divine fire!

She wanted to become a god in one step!

This scene completely surpassed the goals of Tian Mozi and the other two. As Flame mystic became the center of attention, her domineeringness crushed their desire to compete with her.

How could they compare to such a person…

How to win…

How to fight…

Tian Mozi sighed, Tuoshi Shan lowered his head, and Fan Shishuang felt bitter.

However, they weren't willing to give up. Even though the goal they were pursuing was already beyond their reach, they still had their own path. Their advancement had officially begun.

They put in more effort!

Xu Qing also opened his eyes and looked at Flame Mystic.

Even with him and the captain joining forces, they could only trap Flame Mystic. She was a rare peerless heaven's chosen among everyone Xu Qing had seen.

The human race's Fifth Prince, who had returned from the borders of the human race, had told the human race a piece of shocking news.

The Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race might be trying to create… the fourth god.

Originally, Xu Qing thought it was Ji Dongzi because there were more than 90 tablets of fallen gods in Ji Dongzi's soul. It was like a ritual to become a god.

Hence, he killed Ji Dongzi and suppressed the divine tablets in the magus repository, turning them into his own fuel.

After killing him, Xu Qing knew Ji Dongzi wasn't the fourth god that Flame Moon wanted to mold. Or to be precise, Ji Dongzi was a semi-finished product.

He could only be considered a failed container.

Xu Qing looked at Flame Mystic. From the looks of it, it seemed like… she was the fourth god Flame Moon was trying to create.

"But, is it really her?"

Xu Qing mumbled silently. At the next instant, he sensed something and turned to look at the captain.

What he saw was the cold fire burning on the captain's body, the madness that erupted in his eyes, and the gluttonous desire as if he had starved for countless millennia.

The opportunity for Flame Mystic and the others had arrived, and the opportunity the captain was waiting for had also arrived at this moment!

"Finally!"

The captain licked his lips and his expression became increasingly crazed as he laughed loudly.

"Little Qing, look at that sh*t Tuoshi Shan and the other two. They're just little sparrows. Their target is nothing more than the power of the sun and moon. They're just seeking a perfect Soul Accumulation. How unambitious!"

"Little Swallow is quite bold. She is trying to use the canopy as the sky and the divine body as firewood to become a god in one step. However, in your eldest senior brother's eyes, she can at most be considered a slightly bigger sparrow."

"Junior Brother, the big thing I brought you to do this time is something that surpasses the sparrows… the big eagle!"

As he spoke, the captain let go of the connection with Xu Qing and no longer used Xu Qing as an anchor. When his body retreated along with the repulsion force from the moon, he laughed wildly and lifted his hand, pointing at the 108 stars above.

"Turn… around!!"

In an instant, the entire Imperial Palace rumbled again. This sound came from the starry sky of the Imperial Palace, from the 108 stars, from their… backs!

Originally, the side of the 108 stars facing the ground was star soil, but on their back sides were faces that continued to wail in pain!

At that moment, the once-empty foreheads of the faces of the 108 stars shone as the captain performed a series of hand seals. A pearl appeared in each of them!

That pearl was the item the captain had obtained from the shell eagles in the outside world.

108!

This was what the captain had prepared. It was also the arrangement he made when he arrived here before anyone else.

Now, they exploded in unison with a huge commotion and astonishing aura.

It caused the starry sky to ripple and lose its color!

With the help of the strange power of these pearls and the captain's methods, the instant they exploded, these 108 stars actually… rotated in unison.

Amidst deafening rumbling sounds, the 108 stars all changed. The star soil side where Tian Mozi and the other two were on became the rear side, and the side that was wailing in pain became the front!

Wails erupted crazily toward the entire Imperial Palace.

Under the stimulation of the collapse of the pearls, the voices of these faces were unprecedentedly sharp. The voices converged, forming a sonic boom that froze the sun, sped up the moon, shook the star dragons, suppressed the sacrificial offerings, and moved the world!

The expressions of everyone here changed drastically.

Xu Qing instantly left the moon. When he reappeared, he was already beside the captain. His eyes gleamed and his expression was as calm as ever.

This change was basically close to his judgment, so he wasn't surprised. This was especially so under the terrifying sonic boom formed by the wails of those faces, the sun froze and the moon sped up…

'Next should be the second step of the captain's plan, the collision of the sun and moon!'

While Xu Qing was in deep thought, the moon whistled as it moved, heading straight for the frozen sun. It formed the power of the tide and changed the layout of the imperial palace.

As for the captain's crazy voice, it was still echoing.

"Junior Brother, you've always been curious about our major event this time, right? I couldn't tell you before because regardless of whether it's outside or here, it's related to the gods."

"If I say it, there will be unforeseen events."

"Now that everything has begun, there's no harm in me saying it!"

"Junior Brother, my target is the ancestral emperor's body in the coffin!"

The captain pointed at the altar and licked his lips.

"Or rather, it's the new body prepared for the master of this Divine Realm, the spider god who had been sealed by the three gods for countless years!"

"I want to suppress this body and fuse it in my body, indirectly obtaining the recognition of this Divine Realm!"

"I want to take this opportunity to become the master of this Divine Realm!"

"Your target is the emperor's soul which is also the soul of the god. I want the body while you make the divine soul into your Heavenly Dao. Once we succeed, you will also indirectly become the master of this Divine Realm like me. We can both possess the authority of this Divine Realm and fuse with it at a deeper level!"

"I've been preparing for this for a long time! I can't succeed with just myself due to the interference of the divine soul. Junior Brother, you have to help me!"

The captain's voice spread in all directions. Even though the wails of the 108 star faces had turned into a sonic boom, shattering the captain's voice as it spread, the thing he was after still caused the hearts of Tian Mozi and the others to rumble unprecedentedly.

They only wanted the Soul Accumulation while Flame Mystic wanted to become a god. As for these two humans… they actually wanted to become the masters of the Divine Realm!

How dare they!

This was the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race's hunt and a grand ceremony recognized by the three gods. In fact… this was the authority the three gods wanted!

At this moment, they wanted to stop it. Even if they didn't consider their race and only weighed the pros and cons for themselves, if they allowed things to continue, the drastic changes here would definitely affect their advancement.

As for the canopy where Flame Mystic was, it also swayed under the wailing sonic boom. Flame Mystic, who was inside, suddenly opened her eyes and killing intent erupted.

Only Xu Qing wasn't surprised.

Snatching food from the tiger's mouth and dancing on the tip of a knife was the captain's style.

In reality, the moment he arrived in the Divine Realm, with his understanding of the captain, he had already guessed the answer.

If it wasn't like this, how could it be called madness? If it wasn't like this, how could he be Erniu?

Moreover, it was very difficult to stop the plan. At the very least, it was very difficult for these people in the Imperial Palace to stop them.

This was because as the sun froze, the trajectory of the sun and moon had already changed. The moon that whistled over smashed fiercely toward the sun with an unstoppable aura and endless terrifying coldness.

The hundred and eight stars wailed and powerful sound waves rang out as the sun and moon collided!

The world seemed to collapse.

The starry sky swayed and space shattered.

When the flames and cold came into contact, they formed a light of annihilation.

The sun shattered and the moon collapsed. Countless boulders, ice cubes, and flames flew out in all directions.

In an instant, the entire imperial palace was engulfed in rain of fire, rain of ice, and rain of stars. Only where Xu Qing and the captain were located remained the sole place of safety, as if it were the one left from the countless permutations of the Great Dao.

The entire emperor's tomb shook!

The entire world rumbled intensely!

The entire Divine Realm was fluctuating!

The wind also swept in at that moment, an extermination after the fusion of ice and fire, an infinity mixed with yin and yang, a storm after the collision of sun and moon.

That was… the storm of chaos, descending upon the Imperial Palace below, shrouding the heavens.

The star dragons dimmed and collapsed in the wind.

The chimes rang on their own, transmitting the sound of death.

The drums shook and the spirits woke up.

As for the huge canopy, it was also forced away in the storm, revealing… the covered altar and the sacred coffin on it!

Moreover, on the vast expanse of skin that formed the ground, countless eyes opened, and the countless armored warriors standing on the ground all simultaneously revived!

However, no matter what, the path was cleared!

As for the starry sky, it also tilted in the storm. Tian Mozi and the other two, who wanted to stop them, couldn't care less in this drastic change and could only choose to protect themselves first.

Only Flame Mystic, whose advancement was interrupted, gathered her new hatred and charged over.

Looking at all of this, Xu Qing's expression still didn't change. This didn't deviate out of his judgment. He knew that there must be a follow-up on Eldest Senior Brother's side.

As for what it was, Xu Qing had guessed it. After all, there was an item that the captain hadn't returned.

Hence, Xu Qing didn't move when Flame Mystic rushed over.

The captain beside him chuckled wildly. He had been preparing for this scene in his previous life. Now that he had finally seen it with his own eyes, he felt both happy and gratified. Also, how could he not be prepared against Flame Mystic?

Hence, the instant Flame Mystic rushed over, the captain proudly raised his head. He then lifted something high.

The instant she herself saw what it was, Flame Mystic's expression changed drastically.

"You're crazy!!"

She retreated towards a speed so fast that the space around her exploded.

The item in the captain's hand was a sphere.

That was the ancient sun, the Sun of Dawn, and the peak-level regional treasure of the human race!

"Come over!"

The captain gazed towards the retreating Flame Mystic and let out the anger in his heart. As he himself chuckled wildly, he pointed the Sun of Dawn at the altar below…

He threw it over!
