Outside of Time

In the bright sky and earth, on the knife-edge mountains, a group of people galloped.

The captain is at the front, followed by Xu Qing, Wu Jianwu, You Jing, Li Yougui and finally Ning Yan.

They were more than ten feet apart from each other, and each was shrouded in thick black mist. They couldn't see the outside world, and they couldn't feel each other.

Xu Qing held a lit blue candle and was in the black mist released by the candle. As he moved forward, he was cautious in his heart.

It's just that the captain didn't remind him to put out the candle. With such a reminder, Xu Qing couldn't help but recall his past experiences.

As a result, the cultivation instinct in his body was running, and Xu Qing automatically ignored the agreement that Hong Yue's authority could not be used at this moment.

Not only did Hong Yue's power emerge throughout his body, but even the drug ban was dispersed by Xu Qing and surrounded his body.

There is even more morning glow flowing.

He was prepared for the unexpected.

Ling'er at the collar moved her body at this moment, carefully sticking her head out and looking at the outside world.

"Brother Xu Qing, this place is somewhat similar to the ancient spirit world. There are many dead souls. However, most of the dead souls in the ancient spirit world are individuals. However, this place seems to have some special laws that allow countless dead souls to merge together."

"I can vaguely hear them whispering, and they seem to be saying something, but I can't hear the specifics, but I feel like they are observing us."

Linger spoke quietly.

Xu Qing nodded and walked faster on the mountain range, but the mist from the candle in his hand obscured his sight, and he could not see the captain in front of him.

Nor can it be perceived.

Even the shadows are suppressed here and have difficulty spreading.

Only Ling'er, with his talent from the Ancient Spirit Clan, seems to be able to explore the outside world.

"Ling'er, I can't feel the outside world. I can barely see the road under my feet. Can you sense the outside world?"

Xu Qing spoke from the bottom of his heart.

"Okay, although it's blurry, I can vaguely sense it. Brother Xu Qing, everything is normal outside. Everyone is moving forward in their own mist, in the right direction. More than ten feet in front of you is Brother Erniu, and behind you is Da Jianjian."

Xu Qing nodded and galloped along the mountains.

In this way, the six of them moved faster and faster. Everyone was focused and extremely alert. Even the Youjing side had advanced cultivation and did not dare to be distracted at all.

In this strange world, apart from the human skin lanterns in mid-air and the roar of the abyss on both sides, there are also gusts of mountain wind.

This wind is astonishing, contains overwhelming murderous intent, and makes people's scalp numb.

It blew through the mountains and fell on the mist of everyone. While the mist twisted and swayed, it also caused endless coldness to rise in everyone's hearts, as if long knives were whizzing past in front of them.

And each sword contains the ultimate evil spirit, shaking the mind, as if it can directly kill the soul regardless of cultivation.

"The wind is blowing. Hold on to the candles in your hands and reunite your body and mind."

In the wind, the captain's deep voice came, falling into every fog group.

"The wind blowing will make the roars in the abyss on both sides of the mountains more clear, and when these sounds gather to a certain extent, they will turn into sounds we are familiar with."

“And this place is hidden in memory, so the moment we enter this place, the moment we see it, this place also becomes part of our memory.

"Similarly, our existence is also remembered in this world."

"And in this way, our own memories and this place have actually been blended together, so the voices everyone hears are different. They are the obsessions in their hearts."

"Remember, it's fake, don't believe it, don't think about it, and don't look back!"

At the end of the sentence, the captain's voice wavered and became weaker and weaker, while the sound of the wind around him gradually increased, and the whistling whimpering became stronger.

Xu Qing raised his head and looked at the fog in front of him, thinking about a question.

The captain mentioned in his words not to believe the voices coming from the wind, so...are these voices of the captain credible?

If it was really the captain's words, why not say it before?

Also, if it is indeed the captain's words, is it really just a reminder that he said these at this time?

Xu Qing pondered and was about to speak, but the next moment he gave up the impulse. Regardless of whether the voice was true or false, the response itself was actually a kind of cause and effect.

And whether it is true or not, it actually doesn’t matter. What matters is that you have a clear direction and just walk on the path under your feet.

With such thoughts, Xu Qing kept moving forward on this long mountain range with calm eyes.

Soon a stick of incense passed by, and when the group of them had walked through most of the distance, the reminder in the captain's previous words appeared.

Different voices and calls appeared in each of their ears.

Xu Qing heard the voices of Lei Dui, Master Bai, Qi Ye, and Zixuan. He even heard the calls of his parents and Prince Ziqing.

Xu Qing's expression was as usual. He didn't think anyone would really choose to look back in such a situation, so he ignored it. While continuing to move forward, he raised his right hand and held Ling'er around his neck to prevent her. Distraction.

You Jing didn't know what she heard, her face was expressionless, and her pace didn't slow down at all.

At this age, Li Yougui has experienced a lot. He was able to play tricks with Xu Qing when they first met. He is naturally a determined person and can tolerate the fluctuations in his heart and ignore them.

As for Wu Jianwu, he heard Yun Xiazi's voice in the wind, which seemed to be right behind him, calling to him.

Wu Jianwu was stunned by this sudden scene, but thinking of the other party's decisive departure, Wu Jianwu sneered and ignored him, but instead walked faster.

Then, he heard a deep voice full of majesty, which seemed to come from ancient times, and perfectly matched everything he knew about the ancient emperor Xuanyou.

"Nine clouds in the sky recall the past, and ten abyss of mist covers the past and present!"

Wu Jianwu was shocked, and instinctively wanted to go back and read it, but the next moment he felt something was wrong, and secretly thought that the poem was wrong. It made no sense and was indifferent. It seemed to have a soul-stirring domineering power, but in fact it was just moaning without any reason.

So he snorted again and stepped forward.

Finally, there was Ning Yan. He heard a lot until he heard the last sentence.

"Your Majesty..."

Ning Yan paused. After remembering the captain's words, he took a few breaths of silence and continued to move forward.

On the mountain range, the mist where everyone's figures were moved rapidly, without any accidents.

After Xu Qing learned all this through Ling'er, he became more vigilant. The weirdness of this world made him instinctively feel that it would not be so simple.

So I kept calm in my eyes, and while walking, I judged how far away I was from the end based on the passage of time and my own speed.

The candle in his hand obviously burned faster here, and now there is only one wax root left.

"Coming."

Xu Qing murmured in his heart and continued walking, but at this moment, Ling'er's frightening voice suddenly came from his mind.

"Brother Xu Qing... I saw the black mist of our group. Instead of six... there were seven."

"In an instant, the mist where the others were located seemed to have become misaligned without their knowledge... I can't tell who is who now."

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed, and he lowered his head to look at Ling'er. He noticed the panic in Ling'er's eyes, and Xu Qing was sure that this was indeed Ling'er's voice.

And the other party's words did not exceed his expectations.

The weirdness of this world has been revealed one after another at this moment, whether it is the previous voice or the extra one that Ling'er said now.

"Don't look, just move on."

The moment Xu Qing responded from the bottom of his heart, the captain's voice came again at this moment, falling on everyone's ears.

"The end is coming soon, and this level is finally over, but we cannot relax, because the candles burn much faster here than in other areas, which shows that we have attracted attention here."

"So we have to run at full speed and rush forward, trying to reach the place where the mountains and the sky are connected before the candle burns out."

"Now, everyone gallop!"

The captain's voice echoed, and on the mountain range, seven groups of mist figures invisible to each other had different thoughts.

Ning Yan was stunned, and Wu Jianwu was also surprised. They naturally noticed that the candles in their hands were about to burn out, but they clearly remembered that the captain made a lot of candles at that time. Logically speaking, if one candle is not enough, each person should have two candles. right.

Li Yougui hesitated. He couldn't tell whether the voice was real or fake, and he couldn't see anyone else. He didn't know whether he should believe it or not.

As for You Jing, she snorted coldly and remained slow.

And the captain walking at the front was actually indifferent!

Only Wu Jianwu behind Xu Qing, who didn't know what to think, suddenly accelerated his speed, galloped up, and headed straight to the end in front.

Now he is still two hundred feet away from the end.

In this rapid speed, he quickly passed through the fog where Xu Qing and the captain were, and continued to approach the end.

The wind was extremely strong in front of him at this moment, and the candle in his hand burned suddenly faster.

Finally, when he was still ten feet away from the end, the candle in Wu Jianwu's hand burned out completely. The moment it was extinguished, the fog around it dissipated in an instant, revealing his figure with fear in his eyes.

Seeing that there were still ten feet left, Wu Jianwu became anxious, especially when he noticed the six groups of black mist that were still moving slowly forward on the mountain range. Knowing that he was the only one to break out, Wu Jianwu showed surprise on his face.

He seemed to know that he had been fooled, but now he had no choice but to grit his teeth and rush toward the end ten feet away.

But at this moment, the color of this world changed.

Blue lightning roared in the sky, and countless human skin lanterns all turned their heads to look at Wu Jianwu. They rushed towards him at such a fast speed that they teleported close.

Under the abyss on both sides of the mountain range, there was a deafening sound of gasping, and majestic figures were beating against the rocks, seeming to be climbing rapidly upwards.

The terrifying fluctuations spread, and the entire mountain range was shaking violently. The heaven and earth were distorted, and all directions were blurred, as if there were gods in the abyss.

At the same time, among Xu Qing and the others on the mountain range, a mist suddenly rushed out at a speed exceeding all others and with greed.

Go straight to Wu Jianwu.

The speed was so fast that the fog covering its body dissipated, revealing... a human skin lantern inside!

And the face of this lantern is actually somewhat similar to the captain.

It approached in the blink of an eye, with a crazy look on its face. When Wu Jianwu was less than a foot away from the end and was about to reach it, he rushed directly in front of him.

Open your mouth wide and look ferocious, ready to swallow it.

But at this moment, Wu Jianwu suddenly gave up and raised his right hand, shining blue light, and grabbed the human skin lantern.

The lantern was stunned and tried to dodge but was too late. After being grabbed by Wu Jianwu, his body fell backwards and landed on the altar at the end.

At this moment, countless human skin lanterns in the outside world all stopped, seemed to have lost their perception, became as quiet as before, and scattered around.

The low roar under the abyss also stopped, and the beating of rocks continued to be weak.

Apparently, when the exposed pedestrians passed through the mountains and reached the altar, they lost their purpose.

At this moment, Wu Jianwu, who was standing at the altar and holding a lantern, was beaming and laughing proudly.

"Finally caught this thing out."

During the laughter, Wu Jianwu's face and body shape changed, and a large amount of liquid flowed from his body, revealing the appearance of the captain!

He was actually the captain dressed up.
