Outside of Time

"Also...it's also poison?"

Bone Knife's eyes widened, showing despair, and he wanted to say something, but the next moment his head felt dizzy and he passed out.

The fog also enveloped them at this time, swallowing the figures of Xu Qing and the Bone Sword.

Two hours later, at the edge of the restricted jungle, at a crossroads, Bone Sword felt pain in his body, and he woke up and opened his eyes.

The moment he opened his eyes, he looked around blankly, but soon he jumped nervously.

After confirming that there was no danger where he was and that he didn't see Xu Qing, he breathed a sigh of relief. He also immediately noticed that his face was swollen and his whole body had not changed much from before he was poisoned.

"I'm not dead?"

Bone Knife's heart beat rapidly, and he had a strong desire to survive the disaster. At the same time, he also noticed a piece of bamboo next to him with a line of writing carved on it.

"The insurance is gone."

Looking at these four words, Bone Sword felt complicated and a little ashamed of his previous tricks. After a while, he sighed softly and bowed deeply towards the depths of the jungle.

"Thanks."

While muttering, he turned and looked in the two directions ahead. The right side was the only way back to the camp, and the left side was the way away from the camp and into Songtao City.

He stood here, not feeling anyone around him, so he was silent for a long time.

"The camp leader is from the Vajra Sect. The Vajra Sect's sphere of influence covers all nearby cities. Even if I escape into Songtao City, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape the camp master's wrath, especially since all his people are dead."

Bone Knife was struggling in his heart. He knew that there was a way to give himself a chance to survive. That was to go to the camp and inform him about the kid's murder of the camp leader's subordinates. Then he would throw everything on the kid and rely on this incident. , should be able to survive.

Just doing this, against his own conscience, the child saved himself after all, but after thinking for a moment, his inner struggle turned into decisiveness.

"In these troubled times, the most important thing is to survive yourself. You can't control others!" Thinking of this, he suppressed the guilt in his heart, swayed his body, and galloped towards the camp.

But the moment his body stepped in the direction of the camp, a cold light roared from behind him at an alarming speed, penetrating his head in an instant.

With a bang, Bone Knife's whole body shook, blood spattered everywhere, his eyes widened, and he fell to the ground and twitched a few times. In his eyes, the world was covered by an approaching figure, slowly turning dark, until it turned into eternity.

Dying from anger.

Xu Qing stood in front of the bone knife's body and silently pulled out the iron stick.

Xu Qing had a deep understanding of human nature, so he did not leave, but gave Bone Knife a choice.

The left side is raw.

The right side is death.

The bone knife chose the right side.

Xu Qing had no expression on his face as he took out the corpse-destroying powder and sprinkled it. As the corpse of the bone knife melted, Xu Qing calmly turned around and galloped towards the depths.

As for the camp owner's affairs, he was too lazy to get involved.

At this moment, in the jungle, although there was fog, it did not have a great impact on him, so at dusk, Xu Qing had already passed through the fog and arrived at the pharmacy in the canyon.

Almost at the same time as he came in, there was a faint howl of a wolf echoing, but Xu Qing didn't pay attention.

He first carefully observed to make sure that there were no traces of being touched on the small decorations he left before he left last time. Then he opened the door of the pharmacy and stepped in.

The dispensary is not big, and there are no beds for resting. There are only small grids built with wood around, and in each grid, different herbs and poison glands are placed.

Some of these herbs and poison glands have been processed, while others have remained intact. There are quite a few of them, and there are hundreds of them densely packed.

Xu Qing glanced over, feeling satisfied in his heart.

These were collected in this restricted area since he studied with Master Bai. Most of them came from the periphery of the restricted area, and a small part were taken from the depths.

There are mostly poisonous weeds and few medicinal herbs.

Xu Qing checked it first, then sat on the ground with thoughts in his eyes.

Although the white elixir prescriptions that Master Bai gave him were hidden in his daily lessons, Xu Qing had the habit of taking notes and had a very good memory, so he had sorted them out a long time ago, but...refining the white elixir He did not have all the herbs.

"So there is no way to completely follow the recipe for refining the elixir, but it should be possible to substitute or prepare it with other herbs based on its medicinal properties."

Xu Qing murmured that he didn't know if this method was useful, but he thought that even if it failed, he could increase his experience in blending and refining.

Thinking of this, Xu Qing waved his right hand, and seven or eight kinds of medicinal herbs flew out from different small grids and landed in front of him.

After looking carefully, Xu Qing thought for a moment and left the pharmacy and went to the backyard. In addition to various colorful flowers, there was also a small open mud field where many medicinal herbs were planted.

These are all plants and trees that have a limited use time and cannot be left in the soil for too long. Xu Qing moved them here, and over time, it became a small medicinal field.

At this moment, as Xu Qing approached the small medicine field, the howling of wolves not far away could be heard more clearly.

Xu Qing looked as usual and ignored it. He plucked three kinds of herbs from the medicine field and turned around to leave.

After returning to the dispensary, he took out a stone basin and started to mix it according to the knowledge he learned.

Whether it was picking leaves, extracting juice, or popping pollen, he did it very carefully, trying to make every detail precise, and then mixed it continuously, and the liquid in the stone basin slowly turned dark.

"Five medicinal herbs are missing..."

Xu Qing looked at the small grids around him, and after much deliberation, he took out some, using the yin and yang method to try to create a satisfactory effect.

But obviously this kind of thing is difficult, so it wasn't until the night passed and it was dawn outside that he reluctantly mixed the required herbs.

Looking at the dark mucus in the stone basin, Xu Qing frowned.

This was not quite the same as the Bai Dan he had imagined, but after having made it this far, it was obviously impossible to give up.

So Xu Qing gritted his teeth, took out a large amount of seven-leaf clover, and mixed it in according to the proportion.

The next moment, the medicinal liquid in the stone basin boiled directly, and the color showed signs of change, but the change only lasted for three breaths and then stopped.

When he looked at it, the liquid medicine in the stone basin was no longer dark, but turned brown.

Xu Qing hesitated and touched the purple crystal on his chest. Considering that his antibody to the toxin was very strong, he felt a little relieved. He raised his hand and carefully reached into the stone basin, grabbed some mud and kneaded it into pills, then put it in. Smell it in front of your nose.

A fishy smell came out, which made Xu Qing afraid to eat.

"Can it be eaten..." Xu Qing looked a little struggling, and after pondering, he walked out with the elixir and went to the medicine field.

As soon as he got close, the wolf howled again. Xu Qing kept walking through the medicine field and went straight to the place where the wolf howl came from.

Soon, in the weeds behind the medicine field, a large cage made of iron vine wood appeared in front of Xu Qing.

In the cage, there was a skinny black-scaled wolf lying there weakly.

After seeing Xu Qing, it immediately stood up, bared its teeth and growled, but the fear in its eyes showed its fear of Xu Qing.

This black-scaled wolf was encountered by Xu Qing once when he was collecting medicine deep in the jungle. At that time, the enemy wanted to sneak attack him, but he caught him but did not kill him, so he locked him up here and became a medicine-testing beast.

Noticing the black pill in Xu Qing's hand, the black-scaled wolf immediately trembled and backed away.

But it was still too late. Xu Qing reached into the cage with his left hand, grabbed the black-scaled wolf by the neck, and dragged it to the front while it whined and struggled.

Xu Qing had an expressionless face and stared at the trembling black-scaled wolf with cold eyes. He took out the refined elixir in his right hand and placed it near its mouth.

The black-scaled wolf shivered more and more, finally succumbed to the threat of death, opened its mouth and ate obediently.

After a while, the black-scaled wolf began to emit black smoke, vomited, and a large lump bulged on its head. Soon the large lump shattered with a loud bang. Its body went limp, and it lay there panting.

Xu Qing frowned, threw a few pieces of meat in, turned back to the pharmacy, and sat there thinking hard.

"How could it be ineffective... There are some problems with the final onset of the drug's effect. This is not resolving the heterogeneity, but exploding the heterogeneity."

After a while, Xu Qing felt that it was due to the lack of a primer. He needed a medicine primer to purify the effects of these medicinal liquids.

"As a primer, you can use snake venom to prepare it."

As Xu Qing waved his hand, three different poison glands flew over. After he squeezed out the poisonous juice, the liquid in the stone basin suddenly made a sizzling sound and a puff of green smoke rose up.

The smoke contained highly toxic substances. When Xu Qing saw this, he immediately raised his right hand and raised the wind to disperse the poisonous mist outside the room. He then placed the medicine basin aside to wait for it to ferment.

While waiting, Xu Qing crossed his legs, closed his eyes, breathed out, and practiced the Haishan Jue.

It was getting late, Xu Qing opened his eyes, checked the medicinal liquid that became thicker after fermentation, took out some and rubbed it, then went to the black-scaled wolf.

A moment later, amidst the echo of a series of loud bangs, Xu Qing walked back depressedly, sat there and continued to think. He even took out the finished white pill, melted it and studied it bit by bit.

In this way, time passed and six days passed quickly.

During these six days, Xu Qing seemed to have forgotten everything outside and was immersed in the development of Baidan.

He has used most of the herbs in the small compartments in the pharmacy, and the medicine field is almost empty. He has also improved the white elixir liquid he refined more than ten times.

As for the black-scaled wolf...

After the last test of the medicine, the heterogeneity in the opponent's body instantly reached its limit, and even triggered the convergence of heterogeneity in the surrounding spiritual energy, which instantly turned into blood mist and collapsed.

If Xu Qing's shadow hadn't been able to absorb the heterogeneity, that gathering of heterogeneity would have invaded his whole body.

This scene made Xu Qing a little discouraged.

But he knew that white elixir was not easy to refine, especially if he did not have all the herbs, it would be even more difficult.

However, despite this, his experience in deployment has still increased. At the same time, among the more than ten improvements, the last one, although it cannot be called a success, has some effects.

It's just that this effect is completely opposite to that of Bai Dan.

The white elixir resolves the foreign matter, while Xu Qing's last improved elixir attracts the foreign matter quickly.

At this moment, he looked down at the stone basin in front of him.

There is a cyan membrane on the surface of the basin, which is formed by melting the seven-leaf clover, and under this membrane is an extremely dark liquid.

The reason why the diaphragm is used is because once the diaphragm disappears, the liquid does not need to be swallowed, and it will attract the rich heterogeneous concentration on its own.

That was the cause of half of the death of the black-scaled wolf.

Xu Qing sighed, rubbed the center of his brows, and felt the fluctuations in his cultivation, and then some of his frustration dissipated.

Although the elixir was not going well, his cultivation has grown very quickly during this period of practice, and he has now reached the perfection of the fifth level of Haishan Jue.

"Tonight, we should be able to break through to the sixth level."

Xu Qing took a deep breath and put aside the matter of the elixir, with expectation in his eyes, and tried his best to attack his cultivation.

In troubled times, every time one's strength increases by one point, the possibility of survival will increase by one point.

That night, when the bright moon was high, a loud roar came from Xu Qing's body.

The sound this time was much louder than before. Xu Qing, who originally thought there was no dirt in his body, once again released a large amount of impurities from his body at this moment.

An unprecedented sense of transparency filled Xu Qing's body, and at the same time, a faint roar came from behind him.

The mandrill that once only appeared when punching was now transformed behind him, with a larger body and stronger ferocity. It no longer even had one leg, but two legs.

Especially... the mandrill that appeared this time actually seemed to have a horn on its head! !

This is not a mandrill, this is a prototype of Kui!

The moment it appeared, the silent roar from Chukui spread in all directions, causing the screams of many strange beasts in the dark night forest to stop abruptly at this moment.

Xu Qing's eyes slowly opened, and the purple light instantly illuminated the entire pharmacy, like a purple lightning flashing across.

And in the midst of the purple light and the roar of Chu Kui behind him, Xu Qing, who was sitting there with an expressionless face, actually gave people an unprecedented sense of oppression.

After a while, as the purple light in his eyes disappeared and the figure behind him disappeared, Xu Qing murmured.

"Haishan Jue, sixth floor!"
