Outside of Time

As the sound echoed, a person walked up from the sky.

This man was in his mid-twenties, not tall, but of medium height.

His appearance is not the delicate type, but he has thick eyebrows and big eyes.

In particular, his arms are slightly longer than ordinary people, and his eyes are even brighter, as if they contain stars, making his whole person exude a heroic spirit.

At this moment, with laughter, he came from the sky with long strides, giving people the impression of a dragon walking like a tiger.

The cultivation base did not deliberately disperse, but the coercion on his body seemed to be strong enough to suppress it for eternity. What shocked Xu Qing's heart even more was that the Golden Crow Totem on his body was emitting a strong burning sensation at this moment.

When facing Shanhezi and the other two people before, although Jinwu was also scorching, it was far less intense than it is now.

The young man who came forward also contained imperial-level skills. Under the pull at this moment, the void behind him seemed to be torn apart, and a golden dragon roared out from inside, coiling between the heaven and the earth with a shocking momentum.

Every dragon scale emits brilliant light, and every dragon beard contains divine brilliance. Especially the sharp eyes of the dragon symbolize the dominion over the world.

Not only that, this golden dragon also has a sword in its mouth.

That is... the emperor sword of the human sword holder!

This person was clearly the one who realized the success of the Emperor Sword.

If that's all, that's it. What made Xu Qing's heart even more disturbing was that he felt the life lamp in the other party's body.

Not one, but three!

In Xu Qing's perception, the brilliance of the three life lamps in the young man's body was suppressed by his body. It was difficult for outsiders to observe. Only those who also had life lamps could sense it.

Strong, extremely strong!

This is Xu Qing's most intuitive feeling.

Like the three of Shanhezi, he just felt that they were in danger, but they were not unable to fight. But at this moment, Xu Qing felt like a mountain that could not be shaken by the young man who was approaching.

The other party's aura is thick and earth-shattering, unparalleled.

At the same time, as he arrived, the sword holders around him clasped their fists respectfully, but most of them had smiles on their faces.

"Brother Kong!"

"I've met Brother Kong!"

"Brother Kong, I haven't seen you for a long time. Your cultivation has improved again."

The young man laughed and returned the greeting to everyone. The girl who wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth seemed to have become Xiaojiabiyu and ran to the young man's side. It seemed that she mustered up the courage and was about to speak.

But the young man raised his hand and pinched his face.

"Little Ye Ling, I haven't seen you in more than a year, and you've gotten taller."

While talking, Shanhezi and Wang Chen also walked over quickly and paid their respects to the young man.

"Don't be gloomy all day, Xiaohe, it's not good of you, just smile."

"And you, sleep in a coffin every day, and come out to drink with me later." The young man's voice was cheerful. While reminiscing with these old friends, the captain was also transmitting messages to Xu Qing.

"You see, the monster I'm talking about is this person, Kong Xianglong, the first person of this generation of the Wan clan in Fenghai County, the 24-year-old Tenth Palace Jindan, who has not lived for thousands of years!"

"The information I purchased contains a lot of information about this person. He has three life lamps on his body."

"It possesses two emperor-level techniques at the same time, one is the Emperor Sword, and the other is the Dragon Patrol Technique."

"In addition, the intelligence also mentioned that he had a fragment of a forbidden magic weapon that had been refined five times."

"There is also this person who killed the Nascent Soul of the Shenglan Clan a year ago with the combat power of the Nine Celestial Palaces!"…

The captain's voice was filled with emotion, and Xu Qing was also moved when he heard this.

"In addition, Kong Xianglong has a heroic personality, is upright, and has a wide range of friends. Most of the human cultivators who are his enemies will eventually become his friends. However, he is extremely cruel to foreigners. It is said that it is quite common for him to be broken into pieces!"

"But these are not the main points I want to tell you." While the captain was transmitting the message, he looked at Kong Xianglong who was talking to someone, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"Little Ah Qing, some people seem to be nice, but in reality they are sanctimonious, but some people are really what they appear to be. After I saw his information before, I didn't believe that this person was really aboveboard."

"So I used my own methods to investigate and research, and finally discovered that this person is rare and appears to be exactly the same as he is!"

"His three life lamps were not given by the elders, but were obtained based on his strength. Although he is a new sword wielder, it is said that he has lived in the sword wielding palace since he was a child and was born as a handyman."

"Later, he was allowed to practice with military merit because he fought with his life and almost died. After that, he killed all the way and suppressed foreigners. He must be the vanguard in every battle. He was on the verge of death many times before he rose up."

"One of the three life lamps, there is also an emperor-level skill, which he exchanged for military merit. Among them, he realized the Imperial Sword twice and successfully understood it!"

"The second life lamp was given to him in front of everyone after his best friend died, so that he could take his place and walk the unfinished road."

"He snatched the third life lamp from the Shenglan clan!"

"Your senior brother also admires such a person." The captain's tone was extremely rare.

When Xu Qing heard this, his heart was filled with excitement, so he looked at Kong Xianglong.

Almost at the same time as he looked, Kong Xianglong also finished greeting his old friend, glanced at Xu Qing, and walked over with a big smile.

"I guess the little brother is Xu Qing who welcomes Huangzhou's glorious glory!"

"I've met Senior Brother Kong." Xu Qing cupped his fists and bowed.

"Xu Qing, I heard about you and Silu Gong. I have long disliked the girls from the Yao family. They know how to make gestures behind their backs and use the rules as swords. It’s about the son of a bitch.”

"You did a great job!"

"Let's go have a drink together later, I'll treat you!" As Kong Xianglong laughed, another person came from a distance, it was Zhang Siyun.

His face was gloomy. After hearing these words, he glanced at Kong Xianglong coldly, with a cold light in his eyes.

But at this moment, Ye Ling's eyes turned evil, Shan Hezi narrowed his eyes, and Wang Chen smiled with murderous intent in his eyes.

They all stared at Zhang Siyun.

Zhang Siyun was stunned, immediately restrained himself, and silently walked to the edge of the crowd.

Kong Xianglong turned his head and glanced, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes. He knew that Zhang Siyun's mother was Yao Yunhui from Silu Palace.

He also understood that the other mother was standing up for her son, but he couldn't stand this kind of thing. He grew up in the Jianjian Palace and worked as a handyman. He was immersed in the mission of the Jianjian Palace to protect the human race.

Therefore, competition between sword holders is okay, but the kind of bottomless internal fighting is what he hates the most, so he is a little disgusted by Zhang Siyun's approach.

But he admired Xu Qing from the bottom of his heart.

But he knew that they had no friendship and that too many words would cause misunderstandings, so he smiled at Xu Qing and turned around to leave. …

During the whole process, he didn't even look at the captain.

With Yi Zhang Hua Guang, he felt that he was most likely not a good person.

After leaving at this moment, his friends immediately gathered together. Qingqiu didn't like to have contact with too many strangers, so he declined Ye Ling's invitation and stood alone.

"Brother Kong, why are you so enthusiastic about that Xu Qing?"

After Qingqiu left, Shanhezi was a little confused and asked Kong Xianglong.

Next to him, Wang Chen and Ye Ling also looked over. In fact, they didn't have any bad feelings towards Xu Qing, but they didn't have any good impressions either.

Especially the statement that the emperor personally appointed it made them a little unconvinced.

"I tell you, it's okay to be hostile to others, but don't be hostile to this Xu Qing." Kong Xianglong said with a smile.

"The person appointed by the emperor is just a false name, not important. What is important is that Xu Qingwen has a great heart. This kind of person is the most trustworthy comrade-in-arms."

"Brother Kong, you are more than 8,700 feet tall, so you are worthy of trust!" Ye Ling spoke softly from the side, his admiration even more obvious.

"Because of this, I understand better the inner quality represented by Wan Zhang Huaguang. You believe me, I don't miss people. What's more, with the emperor's endorsement, you can become friends with such people for a lifetime."

"But in the future I will find an opportunity to remind Xu Qing to be careful about his eldest brother who is one foot tall. I took a quick glance at him just now and felt that he doesn't look like a good person."

While the four Kong Xianglongs were communicating here, the captain was also persuading Xu Qing.

"Little Ah Qing, I take back what I said before. I think that although Kong Xianglong is a good character, you should not get too close."

Xu Qing was surprised and looked at the captain.

The captain coughed.

"You have to remember that I am your senior brother!"

He just felt that Kong Xianglong was very enthusiastic about Xu Qing. This enthusiasm and the other person's character could easily make people regard him as a senior brother, which made the captain a little wary.

Xu Qing smiled when he heard this, took out an apple from his storage bag, and handed it to the captain.

"Elder brother, eat an apple."

The captain was immediately happy. He took the apple and took a bite. He thought the apple was so sweet, so he waved his hand.

"That's all, the spiritual stone you owe me is just a sum... uh, 30% off!"

The smile on Xu Qing's face dropped silently, and she looked up in the direction of Kong Xianglong.

The captain sighed.

"Thirty percent off!"

Xu Qing was about to speak, but the next moment he looked solemn, and the captain immediately stood up straight. All the sword holders around him looked up and looked at the sword holding palace in front of him.

This huge palace building where the Sword Holding Palace is located seems to be only one, but in fact it contains a large palace complex. At this moment, these new sword holders are only on the periphery.

In front of them was the outer hall of the Sword Holding Palace.

This palace has a gilded roof with blue tiles and red pillars, which is powerful and majestic. The upturned eaves are like flying upwards, and the shape is extraordinary.

It also has another name, called the Oath Palace.

As the place became quiet, the sound of footsteps came from the palace in front. Soon five figures walked out of the palace and fell into the eyes of everyone under the sunlight.

Of these five people, one is in front and four are in the back.

The former is middle-aged, with a tall and straight posture, wearing official uniform, and shows no anger and self-importance. …

The body is full of overlapping shadows, as if all the ways are contained in one body, and it gives people the impression that it is about to contain billions.

The four people behind him were all old men, and each of them looked like countless overlapping shadows, which seemed to spread out to cover the sky and form countless gods.

Although they are still far away from Huayi, the majesty they exude when they stand there is still earth-shattering.

"I am Ling Chengzi, the deputy palace master of Fenghai County's Sword Palace."

"The four behind me are the four deacons of Fenghai County's Sword Holding Palace. Today, the five of me will read the rituals for you and others, admonish An Ze, select positions and positions, and witness the oaths."

"Now, read out the ritual." The deputy palace master said calmly, and a deacon holding a sword came out from behind him, and his voice spread in all directions.

"The first rule for sword wielders..."

This time there were not too many complicated rituals, everything was very simple. As the ceremony was read out, the deacon’s voice fell into the hearts of every sword holder.

Xu Qing looked solemn, and so did the others. Kong Xianglong and others all looked solemn and listened attentively.

After a long time, the reading of the ritual ended.

"There are three rules, seven rules and sixty-nine rules for those who hold swords. You must remember them."

"As sword holders, you come from various states. You have your own rules of survival in each state, and you all have your own character and way of life."

"When we first came here, we looked at each other arrogantly. This is allowed, but it is only the initial stage for you to join the sword holders. From now on, you must keep one sentence in mind."

"Those who hold swords are comrades who can turn their backs to each other!"

"This is completely different from your sect."

"The interests of the clan come first, but the responsibilities of the Sword-bearing Palace come first, the human race comes first, and the love of comrades is also paramount."

"This is the first concept you must change after becoming a sword bearer!"

"After that, you will have seven days of secret training. During these seven days, you will master various secret techniques that only sword holders can possess. During this period, you will also be taught the inheritance of human history and the customs of all races."

"If you succeed in the assessment after seven days, you can be hired."

"But if one of you does not need to be assessed, the position can be determined now."

"Xu Qing, take nine steps out of the queue!"

Xu Qing took a deep breath, and stepped out with a calm expression under the gazes of the sword holders around him.
