Outside of Time

The sea breeze blew and lifted Xu Qing's hair.

He walked forward, letting the wind blow his hair and trousers, like a knife about to be unsheathed. With a cold look in his eyes, he glanced at the woman who changed direction and left.

Xu Qing hesitated for a moment. He didn't want to kill someone on the first day he came here, so he looked back and continued walking towards the inn.

But the tree wants to be quiet, but the wind doesn't stop.

At this moment, the sea breeze comes ashore, and the blow is stronger.

Among the seven or eight big men chasing the woman in front, there was a man with a scar on his face, who seemed to be the leader. After seeing this, he sneered.

"Regardless of whether it's true or not, get this kid too. I think he's someone who has contributed something to the fluctuations of the sixth and seventh levels of body refining!"

As he spoke, the seven or eight people immediately divided into two groups, four of them chased the woman, and the remaining four went straight to Xu Qing.

Xu Qing frowned and glanced at the four people who came. These four people were not ordinary. They were all monks. Most of them were at the sixth level of Qi Condensation, and they all seemed to be major cultivators.

But he really didn't want to kill someone right away when he came to this city, so he backed away and spoke in a low voice.

"I do not know her."

"Little brat, I don't care if you recognize him or not, you're in trouble!" The big man who rushed towards him sneered, waved his hand and punched him directly. The other three people also took action, and one of them was still holding a hand while grinning. knife.

In the moonlight, the blade shone with cold light, and there was poison on it.

Xu Qing lowered his eyes.

Some people in this world always like to linger in front of the gate of hell. He didn't want to take action, but since the other party had murderous intentions, Xu Qing swayed in silence and stopped retreating.

Instead, like lightning, the whole person appeared in front of the person who was punching him, and his left hand was raised and landed on the person's forehead.

The speed is astonishingly fast.

There was a bang and no screams were heard. The big man's head exploded directly under Xu Qing's astonishing power, which was comparable to the Great Perfection of Body Refining. Xu Qing's expression was calm while his flesh and blood were blurred. He stepped out and reached the man holding the knife. In front of him, he bumped into his shoulder in his astonishment.

Half of the knife-wielding man suddenly collapsed.

Xu Qing then punched the remaining two people in the air, their eyes widened and their expressions changed drastically.

The two men were about to retreat, but a wave appeared in the air in front of them, covering them in an instant. In an instant, the two men's bodies shook violently, blood spurted out, their chests were sunken, completely shattered, and they died.

All it took was two breaths, and all four people died.

This scene made the four big men who were detachment not far away also stopped in their steps. They stared at the expressionless Xu Qing with their mouths open, and their scalps seemed to be about to explode.

"Misunderstanding... misunderstanding... we..." The leader's arrogance completely disappeared. His body was trembling and he was about to speak, but when he saw the coldness in Xu Qing's eyes, his heart roared and he backed away crazily.

And the moment he stepped back, Xu Qing moved.

In the next moment, except for the leader, the other three people's bodies trembled, blood spurted out one after another, blood holes were exposed on their temples, and they fell to the ground dead.

Xu Qing's figure emerged from beside them, withdrew his blood-stained fingers, and walked towards the fleeing leader.

Xu Qing's habit is to kill if he doesn't, and to eliminate hidden dangers once he takes action.

At this moment, Xu Qing, approaching the opponent, raised his right hand with an indifferent expression and was about to drop it.

"Fellow Daoist, I am a member of the Night King, don't be impulsive..." The leader was horrified and spoke quickly with a desperate expression.

Xu Qing paused with his right hand and looked at the pale, trembling big man in front of him.

"Disciple of Seven Blood Eyes?"

"It's not the Seven Blood Pupils, but..." The big man was stunned and answered subconsciously, but before he could finish his words, Xu Qing's right hand fell and slapped the big man on the forehead.

There was a bang and blood splattered everywhere.

Xu Qing bent down, wiped his hands on the body, looked up into the dark distance, and pondered for a moment. He was not familiar with the landforms here, so he did not look for the escaped woman.

But he remembered the other person's appearance.

Then he lowered his head and was about to dispose of the body, but suddenly his mind moved. Xu Qing turned around and looked at the inn in the distance, his body forming an attack force.

At the door of the inn, an old man appeared at some point. This old man was wearing a robe like a shopkeeper. He was a bit hunched, his face was covered with age spots, his complexion was sallow, and he looked sickly.

After noticing Xu Qing's gaze, he grinned, showing his yellowed teeth.

"Boy, are those corpses for sale? How about eight corpses and ten spirit coins each."

Xu Qing was stunned. This was the first time he heard that someone wanted to buy a corpse, so he gave the old man a wary look, said nothing, and lowered his head to deal with it.

After being rejected, the old man shook his head helplessly.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, this newly dead body is the freshest."

After a while, Xu Qing finished processing and looked at the inn, feeling a little hesitant about whether to stay there.

Seemingly sensing Xu Qing's hesitation, the old man outside the inn smiled and spoke.

"At first glance, you can tell that you just came here. Most of the places nearby are closed except for mine. You can pay 80 spirit coins or 80 contribution points a night, so you can be a good person."

"Contribution point?" Xu Qing looked at the old man. He had heard the woman who framed him say contribution point before.

"Sure enough, he is new here. You will know later if you contribute some points. It is worth the same as the spirit coins." The old man grinned.

Xu Qing frowned. He felt that everything in this city was weird. Spirit coins were worth the same as contribution points. There were people who wanted to buy the corpses, and the housing prices were so outrageous.

"Don't be too expensive. Nights in the main city are not peaceful. Other inns are not cheap. I only have two rooms left here." The old man said with a smile.

Xu Qing pondered for a while, looked at the sky, and then at the old man. While thinking, he narrowed his eyes and glanced towards the street. There was a blood shadow there at the moment, approaching quickly, and the target was this inn.

As he approached, a monk's figure appeared. Without saying a word, he threw out a leather bag filled with spiritual coins, stepped into the inn and disappeared.

"Now there is only one room left." The old man emptied the leather bag in his hand and said with a smile.

Xu Qing thought for a while, then simply walked over, gave out the spirit coins, and opened the last room on the second floor. Before entering the room, he walked back downstairs to the old man smoking a pipe at the counter and asked. .

"What are you buying those corpses for?"

The old man looked up and grinned.

"I have a little pet at home, and I really like this one. It's a pity that you haven't sold it to me yet. If you do this again in the future, remember to sell it to me. The price is easy to negotiate."

Xu Qing was silent, glanced at the old man, and walked into the room.

He carefully checked here and after making sure it was clear, Xu Qing pushed open the window and looked outside.

In the dark night, the city was pitch black, and the bright moonlight in the sky seemed to cast a mysterious veil over the black city.

The whistling ship's whistle on the distant sea is carried by the waves, and in the light beam of the lighthouse, one can faintly see huge boats, slowly approaching.

Looking at these, Xu Qing remembered the words of the female disciple next to the teleportation formation, and he realized in his heart that this city was like a deep pool, hiding too many dangers. He finally knew where the faint smell of blood came from. , after all, he had just added a ray of blood to this city.

The environment here was very different from the environment he lived in before in terms of architecture and cleanliness, but fundamentally, there seemed to be no difference.

"After all, these are troubled times..." Xu Qing murmured, no longer thinking about this, but thinking about the next entry test.

"Although there is a high probability that I should be able to pass the test, I must also be prepared for what will happen if I fail. There is also the ancestor of the Vajra Sect who is currently my biggest threat. I must improve myself as soon as possible and then kill him."

In this thought, it was getting darker and darker outside. Although there were no roars of strange beasts or strange sounds, as the wind blew in, there were shouts and wanton laughter, full of the dark side of human nature.

Xu Qing took it for granted and ignored it. He lowered his head and took out a cloth bag from his body.

He found this thing in the Vajra Sect and also checked it out on the road. He was extremely surprised.

This cloth bag looks very small, only about the size of a palm, but actually it contains the universe when opened. It can hold so many items that it is as big as a bed.

He had heard of this kind of item in the scavenger camp, called a storage bag.

Storage bags were extremely rare items in the area where Xu Qing lived before. They were extremely valuable and difficult to buy.

Just this storage bag is enough to cause pain to the King Kong Sect, not to mention that there are many pill bottles in it, all of which are Qingchen Pills.

More than thirty pills.

Compared to this, what surprised Xu Qinglu even more was the one hundred and ten pieces of... spiritual stones inside!

Xu Qing has never seen spirit stones, but Captain Lei once taught him some knowledge during a meal, which included spirit stones.

That is something much more precious than spirit coins. One piece is equal to a thousand spirit coins. It is made of high-concentration spiritual energy. It can be used to practice directly at critical moments. Any piece is valuable, and it describes the appearance, so many Only then did Qing recognize it.

These items were his biggest gain in the Vajra Sect. As for other sundries, they were nothing compared with storage bags and spiritual stones.

Even though Xu Qing had checked it many times on the way, after finishing it now, he was still shocked by this windfall. This was the greatest wealth he had ever obtained since he was a child.

"If I fail the test, then this money should allow me to speed up my training in the main city of Seven Blood Eyes..." Xu Qing murmured, closed his eyes and started practicing.

No matter where he is, no matter what the next test will be, for Xu Qing, practice is unstoppable. This is the foundation of his life in the world and the best guarantee for his survival.

After all, in troubled times, seemingly eternal things like sunrise and sunset may change one day.

Everything is possible.

The only thing that remains unchanged is the law of the jungle.

And... in Xu Qing's experience, places with many people are even more dangerous than restricted areas, because the human heart is the most sinister and difficult to judge.

Especially the main city of Seven Blood Eyes, which obviously hides danger and mystery.

For young people, this place is also a restricted area.

Another forbidden area.
