Outside of Time

Ning Yan's sudden kneeling was surprising.

Zi Xuan glanced at him lightly, as if he was used to it.

"Xuanyou Sect."

"Ancestor Yingming, this disciple is a cultivator of the Xuanyou Sect. When he was in the sect, he admired the ancestor of the 3,700 Xuanyou Sects in the entire Yinghuang Province."

The captain looked strange, and Xu Qing frowned, remembering the specialness of Xuanyou Sect.

Because of the Ancient Emperor Xuanyou, there were a very large number of Xuanyou Sects. Sects of all sizes would call themselves Xuanyou Sect if they occupied a small area.

For example, Xu Qing and the captain had seen a Xuanyou Sect in Taisidu'e Mountain.

And this is obviously the case for Ning Yan. After all, whether he practices the Xuanyou Sect's skills or not is clearly clear in the eyes of the Immortal Zixuan. So thinking of the feelings of incense and fire, Zixuan nodded and let him go with the ship.

Ning Yan panicked in his heart. He didn't want to go with the boat, but he didn't dare to refuse. He could only bite the bullet and hide at the edge of the corner, not daring to look at Xu Qing. He felt uneasy in his heart, like a frightened bird.

Xu Qing glanced at it, planning to find a time when no one was around to settle accounts with the other party.

But the captain's eyes were filled with wonder. He walked over and walked around the nervous Ning Yan a few times, then asked with an interested look.

"Boy, there's something wrong with you. You were caught by a big bird and played like that, but you didn't die and your injuries weren't very serious."

"Senior Brother Chen, my bloodline returned to my ancestors when I was a child, and the power of bloodline is for protection." Ning Yan quickly explained.

When the captain heard this, he licked his lips, laughed, went up and hugged Ning Yan's neck, and spoke in a low voice.

"Don't be afraid of Xu Qing. I am his senior brother. You should have heard the rumors about Xu Qing's great respect for me in Taichu Li Youzhu. Let me tell you, that is true."

"From now on, as long as you listen to me, you are my brother, then you are Xu Qing's brother. What is the most important thing between brothers? Friendship, don't you think so?"

Ning Yan didn't dare to say otherwise and nodded quickly.

Xu Qing glanced at the captain. He felt that this scene was a bit familiar, as if he had seen it on someone before, so he glanced at Wu Jianwu who was standing aside.

Wu Jianwu was also stunned, thinking of what he had experienced, and looked at Ning Yan sympathetically.

The captain was still fooling around, and the flying boat was still moving forward. It was not far from the teleportation point proposed by Chen Tinghao.

It is actually the last teleportation point on the route of the Eight Sects Alliance.

"After this teleportation, we will arrive at the county capital. Xu Qing, I just asked my friends in the palace here and found out that it is actually Wan Zhang Hua Guang!"

Chen Tingbo looked at Xu Qing in shock. He had gone on a mission before and had not returned for a long time until he sent word within the county capital.

"There are still many things I don't understand. If I do something wrong in the future, I hope Brother Chen will remind me." Xu Qing said with a sincere expression, cupping his fists.

"It's certain. Xu Qing, you are so glorious. This is something Fenghai County has never seen before. Do you know what this means?" Although Chen Tinghao had envy in his eyes, there was no hint of jealousy.

Xu Qing shook his head.

"It means that you are the most trustworthy, it means that you are very upright in your heart, and it will also be of great help to your appointment." Chen Tinghao sighed with emotion.

"Taking a position?" Xu Qing knew that this time he was going to be assigned a position, but he didn't know the details, so he asked. …."According to the rules, new sword holders must serve in the county capital for three years before they can be released. When you arrive this time, you will be assigned to serve after taking the oath."…

“Different positions have different military merits, so this position is very important.

"After all, for us sword holders, everything is inseparable from military merit!"

"Among the many positions in the Sword-holding Palace, it is easiest to obtain military merit in the inspection and inspection departments. Intelligence and law enforcement are also acceptable, but in the internal affairs positions, there are fewer opportunities to obtain military merit.

"In addition, there is a special position where you can gain more military merit, but new sword holders are never recruited there, and the elderly are not allowed to apply. All sword holders for this position are specially recruited by the palace master's decree."

Chen Tinghao's eyes showed fascination.

"It takes someone with an extremely clean background and a pure mind to be competent."

Xu Qing was a little curious and looked at Chen Tinghao.

"That's the pawn!"

"Pawn?" Xu Qing was startled.

"Yes, pawn, pawn of the Prison Department, you will know as soon as you arrive in the county capital. One of the biggest features of the county capital is the prison of all races!"

Chen Tinghao smiled, with a touch of pride on his face.

"The Prison Department holds all kinds of evil spirits from all ages, and some are also weird. It is the largest prison in the entire Fenghai County. Most of the prisoners inside are murderous people. They are extremely cruel, but in the end they will change their expressions after hearing the killings. .

“Because all the people in the Prison Department claim that they are just pawns.

"So, the term pawn came into being. They deterred all evil."

When Chen Tinghao said this, the fascination in his eyes became stronger and turned into desire.

"There is an ancestor in my sect who was specially recruited as a pawn by the palace lord. Unfortunately, he died in the line of duty many years ago."

Having said this, Chen Tinghao shook his head.

"But Xu Qing, you can't go to the Prison Department. Although pawns are special, you are even more special. The splendid sword holder will definitely be respected by the public. Maybe next time I see you, I will hold the sword in respect to you." It’s a gift.

Xu Qing looked at the distant world. In fact, he was not particularly concerned about his position. After arriving at the boundary of the county capital, he looked at everything here. The complexity in his heart became more and more complicated, so he spoke softly.

"Brother Chen, is Chaoxia Mountain here?

"Zhaoxia Mountain?" Chen Tinghao glanced at Xu Qing.

"Zhaoxia Mountain is in Chaolu Prefecture and is one of the three prefectures closest to the county capital. It has long been the place where my sword-bearing palace is tested. Outsiders are not allowed to step in. If the sword-holder wants to go, , it requires a certain amount of military merit.

"The military merits are huge, because there is the palace of an ancient sun, and it is also the place where the sun fell. Sometimes there will be the stream of light before the sun falls, overflowing from the long river of time, shining there.

"Every stream of light before its death contains the charm of Taoism, and it is itself a top-level weapon-refining and elixir-making material. The quantity is very small, and every occurrence is recorded.

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed, seemingly calm, but there were violent ups and downs in his heart. This was the first time he knew the information about Chaoxia Mountain in such detail.

Chen Ting did not ask Xu Qing why he was interested in Chaoxia Mountain, but gave him a reminder.

"If you want to go to Chaoxia Mountain, you have to accumulate military merit."...Xu Qing nodded.

Not long after, during their conversation, the flying boat arrived at the location of the teleportation array. As Zixuan walked out, and as the flying boat was put away, more than a hundred monks descended on the earth one after another. …

On the ground, there is an ancient teleportation array, shaped like an altar, with a large area and a gray-black body. You can see long marks intertwining with each other and flashing light.

There were sword holders guarding him all around. They obviously knew Chen Tinghao. They all greeted him happily after seeing him, and some even hugged Chen Tinghao.

The mutual emotions made Xu Qing understand more about the sword holder.

Soon, under the arrangements of these sword holders, the Eight Sects Alliance and their group walked into the teleportation array, shining in the shocking light.

, they completed the last transmission of this trip.

When he appeared, he was already outside the county capital!

An earth-shattering statue came into everyone's eyes the moment their figures appeared.

It was the statue of Ancient Emperor Xuanyou. It was so vast that it seemed to be able to support the heaven and earth.

It was so big that compared to him, everyone was like dust. Even ordinary people couldn't see the entire statue clearly if they raised their heads.

It stands on the ground, with the sky above its head, and the clouds only thinly surrounding its waist. It requires the monks to strain their gaze to barely see it.

The statue was made with both hands raised, as if embracing the heaven and the earth, and between the hands of the statue, there was a majestic suspended city.

This is the county capital.

The size of this city is several times that of the Eight Sects Alliance City Group. The light inside is endless, and the shining light turns into a sea of ​​light around it. There are also three smaller palaces floating around it.

Although it is not as good as the county capital, any palace placed on the earth will be a huge thing.

Three palaces and one city clearly fell into Xu Qing's eyes, shocking him.

But what caused a huge stir in his heart was the earth.

Directly below the suspended county capital, where the ancient emperor's statue stood, the ground was as smooth as a mirror, and on the mirror surface was a super prison built underground.

The mirror-like earth above this prison is translucent. If you stand high in the sky and lower your head, you can see that there are many layers underground, like an abyss.

There is the Department of Prisons and Prisons that Chen Tinghao mentioned before, the No. 1 Prison in Fenghai County!

And in the mid-air between the prison and the suspended city, there was a huge ancient bronze sword floating.

This sword is vast and majestic, earth-shattering, and its light is bright and can be seen from all directions.

The sword body is engraved with the character "Yuan", which is clearly a sword wielder's sword.

It floats in the void, with the city above and the prison below. The sword rotates slowly, emitting indescribable terrifying pressure.

Guard the county capital at the top, and punish the prison at the bottom!

This is not over yet, there are still some buildings on the land, which also attracted the attention of everyone in the Eight Sect Alliance.

Those are the five-cornered sword pavilions built around the prison!

These sword pavilions are surrounded by a circle, and they are very neatly arranged, but they are of different heights. The tall ones are almost close to the height of the county capital, while the short ones are only a few feet, uneven.

There are so many, probably hundreds of thousands, and each one is separated by thousands of feet and forms a ring, almost dozens of circles.

"Those are the sword pavilions. When all the sword holders in Fenghai County are promoted and report to the county, they will put down their spiritual swords here to form a sword pavilion. This is also where the sword holders live on weekdays!

"The sword holder will not die, and the sword pavilion will not dissipate. If someone dies in battle, it will be dissipated after a specific ceremony is announced by the deacon."

“Welcome to Fenghai County Sword Bearer Headquarters, to the county capital!

Chen Tinghao laughed and bowed to Xu Qing and others. He planned to leave, but found that the Eight Sects Alliance seemed to be waiting for someone, so he did not leave, but stayed with them to wait.

The Eight Sects Alliance is indeed waiting.

When people from branch sects go out, on the one hand, the Supreme Immortal Zixuan comes personally, and on the other hand, the county capital cannot go there at will, and they need someone to guide them.

Originally, according to the agreement, the people from the branch sect should have arrived long ago, but now they waited for a while, but no disciples from the branch sect appeared.

There was a glimmer in the eyes of Immortal Zixuan. She had used the jade slip to transmit the message, but she did not receive any response.

"There must be something wrong." The old woman from Wufeng, standing next to Zixuan, said in a low voice.

The defenders of the branch sect are not cultivators at the level of the ancestors, so they cannot neglect the Supreme Immortal Zixuan, nor do they have the courage to do so.

But it just didn't show up.

There is only one explanation for this.

Division, something happened.

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed. This kind of thing happened just after arriving. Obviously, this matter cannot be explained by coincidence.

"Aimed at us?" Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, the captain's eyes also showed a cold look, and the two looked at each other.
