Outside of Time

The scene of Them appearing in the sky caused Xu Qing to immediately confirm that his previous judgment wasn't wrong. Back then, when the three gods advanced, the mysterious cultivator who had appeared at the critical moment to stop the giant starry hand.

It was the Human Emperor.

'No wonder I felt that the Flame Moon agreed to retreat too easily back then, and that my appearance only gave them a reasonable excuse to allow this retreat.'

'Now that I think about it, Star Flame High God had appeared in the human capital previously… She probably already made a deal with the Human Emperor at that time…'

Xu Qing mumbled inwardly. As he looked at the magnificent scene in front of him, his admiration for the Empress rose.

'I hope… she will succeed.'

Xu Qing couldn't find a reason not to wish her well, especially after experiencing the baptism of the drumbeats.

Hence, he looked at the Empress.

In his eyes, she exuded confidence and composure, commanding the realm with her regal bearing. It seemed as if no change could ruffle her, no obstacle could daunt her; her expression remained serene throughout.

If it was Xu Qing when he hadn't entered the Seven Blood Eyes, his perspective, his understanding, his experiences would not have been fully broadened.

In that case, he might have another understanding of the Empress' calmness.

However, with his current experience, he naturally understood that her status and stature necessitated concealing her emotions. At this moment, the eyes of all the humans were fixed on her.

She was the source of the strength of the human race in the Wanggu.

If she showed fear, the people would be afraid; if she showed panic, the people would panic.

Similarly, at this moment, countless Wanggu races, experts, and gods were using their own methods to pay close attention to this grand ceremony of the human race.

Therefore, one could imagine that every expression, every word, and every action of the Empress would be magnified countless times and deeply scrutinized by all parties.

If she was fully understood, the danger would become even greater.

This was the so-called walking on thin ice.

Hence, she could only remain calm.

As Xu Qing was thinking, the sounds from the sky became increasingly intense. The feeling of shattering was obvious and the ground resonated, swaying.

This area of the world seemed to have transformed into a surging sea. The human race was like a lone boat amidst the monstrous waves, rising and falling intensely with the waves and in danger of capsizing at any moment.

As for the rumbling sounds coming from the sea of fire in the sky, they were deafening.

One could see the moonlight scattering down, forming waves of divine authority. The aura of the Moon Flame High God swept through everything domineeringly and coldly.

The battle between gods, especially when it came to battles between gods at the level of Moon Flame and Blazing, wasn't something that ordinary people could see with their naked eyes.

Even their perception would become abstract.

Hence, the sea of fire in the sky and the moonlight intertwined into an abstract painting.

In the painting, the moon was spreading and the fire was churning.

The difference between flawlessness and tribulation fire was clearly reflected in this painting.

In reality, if Moon Flame wanted to, She could suppress a tribulation fire stage god with a flip of Her hand.

However, it was obvious that She wasn't willing.

The clay fox at the side was the same. She calmly walked in the dark night. Dirt fell from the sky and mud rose from the ground. Wherever She passed, everything seemed to pile up into a huge mud statue.

This also included the god gathered by countless corpses that were constantly retreating in front of Her.

Clearly, these two Flame Moon gods were only willing to obstruct these two gods for a while.

They could easily kill the two tribulation fire stage gods for the human race, but the human race didn't seem to be able to afford this price at the moment.

This also exceeded the scope of the deal.

All of this was noticed by the Empress.

Regardless of whether it was the arrival of the Blazing God or the appearance of that god from the Underworld Origin Corpse Race, they were all within her expectations.

Back then, when the three gods advanced, to a certain extent, it could already be considered a preview of the difficulties she would face in the future.

So… back then, she chose to cooperate with the three gods. At the most critical moment of the other party, she took a huge risk to intervene and resist the huge starry sky hand for the three gods.

It was exchanged for the arrival of the three Flame Moon At the most critical moment of the other party, she took a huge risk to intervene and resist the huge starry sky hand for Gods today!

Even though the two gods didn't use their full strength, Their attitudes were already obvious. The Empress also knew very well that this was just a transaction.

Although the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race was an adversary since ancient times, in the future of the human race, enemies… could become allies.

After all, compared to the other gods from Wanggu, the origins of the Flame Moon High Gods were more suitable for becoming allies.

Of course, the prerequisite was that they had to have the qualifications to make a deal with Them.

The Empress shifted her gaze away from the sky and gazed at the corpse of the Human Emperor Eastern Triumph in the five vortexes around the Ancient Sovereign Planet.

The secret about the origins of the three Flame Moon High Gods was the reason why the Human Emperor Eastern Triumph started a war.

This secret was reported to the holy land, and Human Emperor Eastern Triumph had told his descendants too.

The Empress retracted her gaze and gazed at the horizon. Her divine flame had already burned to a critical moment.

"There's another item in this transaction."

The instant she gazed over, an earth-shattering sound of drums rang out from the end of the sky.

As this sound rang out, it continued to shake the souls of all living beings. The sky lost color and the ground was about to turn into nothingness. At this moment, the entire world trembled violently.

It was the same for the sky, the earth, the mountains and rivers, and all living beings.

It was as though there was an incomparably terrifying being walking into the human world amidst this sound.

Very soon, the void was ripped apart and an endlessly long rift that spread from the west to the east appeared.

Strong breeze blew from the north from within this rift.
