Outside of Time - Chapter 1299

Chapter 1277 Peeling Off the Star’s Skin!

Peeling Off the Star’s Skin!

Upon hearing this, Xu Qing, despite his extensive experience and exposure to all sorts of bizarre and incomprehensible things, was still deeply shaken. His eyes

gleamed.

Such a feat…

This was the original mother planet of the Fourth Star Ring, and to peel off its skin—the very act sounded grand and magnificent, possessing an indescribable aura of power.

“I have another question. From what I’ve learned, this place is clearly extremely important to the Fourth Star Ring, so why…”

Xu Qing’s gaze swept around.

Whether it was the past month or so since his arrival, or even now, the resistance and struggle of this original mother planet seemed inconsistent with its purpose, especially now, with no guardians appearing.

The entire original mother planet seemed to consist only of corpses and those primordial monsters.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Linghuang smiled slightly.

“First, this star is unsuitable for long-term stays, as its source energy is constantly being absorbed. Second, this star is mysterious and difficult to explore; conventional methods are insufficient to reach it. It appears to exist here, but in reality, this area is like a memory.”

“In other words, it exists within the memories of the gods. Of course, this is a language organized according to our cultivators’ understanding; the gods perceive it differently, leaning towards the end of the true name.”

“And most importantly, what you see is only the present.”

“According to the Immortal Venerable’s understanding, the original mother star of this fourth star ring… has actually perished dozens of times, destroyed by various accidents and for various reasons.”

“But no matter how it is destroyed, it will not shake the foundation of the gods, because it… will reappear, intact, and even its resurrection will return to the moment before its destruction.”

“To some extent, it can be said that… as long as there are gods in the fourth star ring, this star will not truly disappear.”

“This is also why there is no protection here.”

“It’s really unnecessary.”

Xu Qing pondered, turning to look at the Aurora Young Master who was walking towards the canyon, another question arising in his heart.

“Then… what is the meaning of this skinning?”

Ling Huang’s eyes were somewhat complicated as she looked at the Aurora Young Master not far away and spoke softly.

“Your brother is going to do something that should have been done by his father, something unprecedented that only he and his father could accomplish.”

As Ling Huang’s words echoed, the Aurora Young Master had already entered the canyon.

The moment he stepped in, he formed a strange hand seal. This seal was complex and violated the bending force of the finger joints, requiring several fingers to be twisted in different directions.

As the seal was formed, an ancient aura rose up,

causing the sky to ripple and the earth to echo with muffled sounds.

“That is a sacrificial seal inherited from the Immortal Venerable!”

Xu Qing looked at these and instinctively wanted to memorize the seal method. Ling Huang Fairy beside him saw Xu Qing’s thoughts and explained.

Upon hearing this, Xu Qing immediately accelerated his memorization.

At the same time, with the Aurora Lord’s sacrificial seal, in the next instant, the glaciers on both sides of the canyon, amidst the muffled thud of the earth, seemed to be struck by a tremendous force, their foundations shaken. With

a deafening roar, the glaciers on both sides collapsed directly! This

exposed numerous bronze gates.

This collapse, turning into fragments, spread rapidly, sweeping across the canyon to both sides, the glaciers on both sides groaning like dying beasts in their wake.

Countless massive fragments of black ice were torn apart and overturned by an invisible force, revealing the original darkness beneath.

The eerie green moonlight streamed down smoothly,

making the darkness beneath the glaciers hazy.

Within this haze, countless primordial monsters could be seen, living here since their formation, devouring the flesh and bones of gods for sustenance. Now, amidst this cataclysmic change, they all roared mournfully towards the source of all this…

These roars shook the surrounding area, transforming into terrifying sound waves, like the wrath of a primordial mother planet.

They were to utterly crush all outsiders.

Then, they all rushed towards the Aurora Young Master.

From the sky, the scene was incredibly spectacular.

Countless source fiends, in the hazy darkness, surged like a black tide, overwhelming and utterly frenzied.

Among them were those whose entire bodies were covered in blue ice, displaying terrifying power that made Xu Qing’s heart churn.

But with the Aurora Young Master, he merely raised his hand.

Instantly, a familiar law erupted from the Aurora Young Master, sweeping across the charging source fiends.

Upon contact, the source fiends instantly seemed to be lifted from their height!

They became… planes of only length and width!

Like figures in a painting.

This scene deeply shook Xu Qing, and a bright light appeared in his eyes.

This was exactly the state of the Aurora Young Master when he first encountered him in the Aurora Immortal Palace. It

was also the direction he had explored for his next step after the formation of the spacetime law.

“Xu Qing, this is your path. I can borrow it now, but after you attain enlightenment, among all the immortals in the world, only you can use this path!”

As the Aurora Young Master’s voice echoed, he stepped forward, continuing his descent.

Wherever he passed, waves of primal demons lost their height, becoming flat, like paper money from the underworld, constantly falling.

Thus, the primal demons no longer posed an obstacle, and the hazy atmosphere could no longer stop him, only allowing the Aurora Young Master to sink step by step into the earth!

This world beneath the glacier was once a place where the glacier was the sky above, and the earth existed below!

Now, as the Aurora Young Master descended, he raised his palms and pressed them down.

Instantly, aurora shone on his body, transforming into a sea of light that swept across all directions, completely dispelling the haze and clearly revealing the earth below.

It was… a dark purple, fleshy rock layer!!

Upon closer inspection, one could even see a membrane resembling an epidermis on this rock layer!

It was covered with dense tentacles, boundless and endless, like a grassland, yet also like starbursts!

Each synapse terminal had a golden vertical pupil,

staring intently at the approaching Aurora Young Master!

This primordial mother planet truly had a skin!

Xu Qing’s eyes gleamed with a strange light. As he and Fairy Linghuang descended, the Aurora Young Master raised his hands, each hand forming a hook shape, and thrust them into the rock layer below!

Then he tore it apart violently, followed by a shudder!

Within the earth, a muffled roar of pain echoed, shaking the heavens and the earth.

As the Aurora Lord tore and trembled with his hands, the endless expanse of star skin surged up like a tidal wave, tearing away even the broken ice fragments on it.

It was skinning!

The sound of tearing and the shrill roars rose to the heavens.

A fountain of blood, carrying stardust, gushed forth from where the earth had been peeled away!

Like a torrential rain

of blood, it rushed towards the sky! In the air, it rapidly condensed into a crimson cloud that blotted out the sun, seemingly threatening to replace the sky!

Simultaneously, as the earth was lifted, the billions of golden vertical pupils on the detached star skin opened furiously, radiating countless golden beams of light, shooting towards the Aurora Lord like a rain of arrows.

At the last moment, the Aurora Lord’s brow split open with a blood-red pupil, and a swirling black vortex deep within the pupil erupted instantly, swallowing all the beams of light from all directions.

Then, he grabbed the star skin with both hands in mid-air and hurled it violently in the direction it was pointing!

Suddenly, a tearing sound erupted from the two star-like skins, continuously ripped up from both sides of the Aurora Young Master!

As it peeled away, it roared into the distance.

From afar, it formed an inverted “8” shape!

Its range grew larger and larger, tearing and ripping in unison, eventually rising to a considerable height and becoming a relatively complete skin!

Spreading out across the dome!

The heavens and earth changed color!

The Aurora Young Master’s voice echoed softly.

“Seal the heavens, form a boundary from the placenta.”

Instantly, the terrifying star-like skin writhed violently in the sky, merging with the void to become an amber-colored placenta!

Like a giant biological membrane, it became the new celestial curtain of this primordial mother planet.

Outside, the eerie green moonlight from the starry sky, as if materialized, struck the placenta, creating ripples, yet could no longer penetrate it even slightly.

Looking up from below, one could see that the placenta contained a clear fleshy texture, the veins seemingly forming a star map, and dripping blood droplets forming a flowing galaxy on the dome. The scene

was horrifying, reflecting the distorted image of the fleshy, bloody earth below.

These sights deeply shook Xu Qing’s mind. The world of

this primordial mother planet had truly changed!

All light was blocked, the entire world shrouded in an eternal blood-red twilight. The mother planet itself resembled a gigantic beast being skinned alive.

The ground beneath his gaze was covered in dark red muscle tissue, riddled with horrifying nerve networks, and even shattered blood vessels flowing with golden liquid essence.

Furthermore, a strange pulse emanated from the depths of the mother planet, causing the entire earth to tremble, as if some ancient being was about to awaken.

Xu Qing took a deep breath, his mind churning. The Aurora Young Master, who had peeled back the skin of this planet, now gleamed with cold light. He stepped onto the exposed flesh of the mother planet below, and as he walked forward, strands of star marrow could be seen clinging to the soles of his boots.

Around him, towering waves of blood surged forth from the fleshy earth, seemingly adding to the backdrop!

Meanwhile, the mournful cries of the mother planet, intertwined with the shrill screams of countless primordial larvae crawling out from the flesh, grew ever stronger, forming

a terrifying sonic wave, like the endless lament of all living beings.

The Aurora Prince, walking through the flesh, seemed to be measuring. He

quickly found his target.

“This is it,”

he murmured, raising his right hand to his brow, touching it, and then pulling sharply outwards.

Instantly, a greatsword, gleaming with silver light, suppressing even the crimson hue of the entire world, appeared!

It was… the Immortal Venerable’s Sword!

Without hesitation, the Aurora Prince plunged it into the flesh beneath his feet, then cleaved it open!

The entire star emitted an even more intense shriek.

Thick blood gushed forth even more.

The wound spread rapidly, eventually revealing… a pulsating star core beneath!

That was the star palace used by the primordial mother planet when it gave birth to the first god!

“What is he doing…”

In mid-air, Xu Qing stared at the scene, his mind churning with intense emotions. An audacious and unbelievable guess arose in his mind.

Beside him, Fairy Linghuang glanced at Xu Qing and spoke softly,

“You should have guessed it…”

“Your brother is going to… become a god here!”
