Outside of Time - Chapter 1365

Chapter 1341 Zi Xuan Awakens

Time passed, and twenty years went by.

In these twenty years, the entire Wanggu Continent underwent earth-shattering changes!

Under Xu Qing’s reputation, the Empress expanded her territory, triumphantly restoring the human race’s lands to the level of the Eastern Sheng Emperor’s era.

This was only the area directly controlled; if indirectly controlled, the human race had become the number one race in Wanggu within these twenty years,

occupying most of the continent !

The remaining areas were centered around gods and ancient races. While these forces feared and didn’t want to provoke the human race, they were also unwilling to easily submit.

When the three sides were locked in a stalemate, Ling’er emerged from the Sacrifice Moon Domain, accompanied by the Crown Prince and others. Using her Ancient Spirit Bloodline status, she offered a way for the ancient races in those areas to bow down.

They, for various reasons, were unwilling to submit to the human race, but the Ancient Spirit Bloodline was a different story.

In the understanding of these ancient tribes, although the Wanggu tribe claimed to be one of ten thousand races, in reality… the so-called ten thousand races were simply humans plus other races.

The Ancient Spirit tribe, which unified Wanggu before the Xuanyou Ancient Emperor, belonged to the other races.

Therefore, bowing to the Ancient Spirit bloodline was in their favor. Thus

, the only obstacle to the unification of Wanggu was the gods.

And matters concerning the gods were best resolved by the gods themselves. So the Empress went to Nanhuang Continent and met with Xu Qing outside the magic boat where he was in seclusion, explaining her intentions.

The sea shimmered, and as the magic boat rocked, Xu Qing, who was sitting cross-legged inside, did not open his eyes.

Nor did he emerge from seclusion.

But he raised his hand and waved it outwards. A stream of light flew out of the magic boat and gathered in the harbor, before the Empress, transforming into a clay statue.

This clay statue was a fox.

As the wind blew, the clay statue emitted a dazzling light, the clay turned into flesh and blood, and its color became increasingly vibrant, eventually becoming a body of flesh and blood.

A sweet, coquettish laugh rang out, and the alluring mud fox reappeared in the mortal realm.

“Sister, it’s been so long! Thank you for finding me, otherwise I would have completely forgotten about you.”

The mud fox’s eyes were seductive as she covered her mouth and chuckled.

The Empress frowned, but said nothing more. She bowed to the magic boat where Xu Qing was before turning and leaving.

The mud fox’s laughter echoed as she turned to look towards the distant Yan Yue.

Her eyes revealed a deep anticipation.

“Sun, Moon, Stars… it’s time to change the order.”

With that, the mud fox took a step forward.

Returning to the past.

The first stop, naturally, was the Yan Yue Xuan Tian Clan.

The moment she descended, the sacred mountain of the Yan Yue Xuan Tian Clan suddenly trembled, and mud rain fell from the sky.

As the rain fell, fear arose in the hearts of all the members of the Yan Yue Xuan Tian Clan, while simultaneously, an overwhelming divine power descended upon the sacred mountain within the mud rain, transforming into divine sounds that echoed.

“Flaming Moon, Flaming Sun, come and see me!”

The divine mountain roared, and the figures of the Sun God and Moon God appeared within, their expressions surging with emotion as they charged towards the heavens.

But they could not reach the end.

The Moon God took seven steps, then fell silent in mid-air, before lowering his head.

The Sun God, his entire body radiant, transformed into a great sun, attempting to forcefully charge forward, but he only managed to take a few more steps than the Moon God… His

transformed sun then became a muddy sun.

He himself remained silent, giving a meaningful glance to the mud fox standing above the sky, before lowering his head.

The mud fox’s laughter echoed in all directions.

The sun, moon, and stars became stars, moon, and sun.

Then, his divine form descended upon the various gods, forcefully presenting them with two paths:

either be annihilated and have their source extracted, or choose to become subordinate gods.

In this way, he achieved unification among the gods.

Even though some powerful gods, deeply hidden and in slumber, surpassed the mud fox in strength, Seventh Master remained steadfast.

During the twenty years Xu Qing was in seclusion, Seventh Master resided in Huangtian and ventured out twice.

The first time, he annihilated an ancient being from the myriad races who survived using a special method.

The second time, he suppressed three half-step True Gods.

Under his intervention, at least openly, the fatal conflicts between the alien races, gods, and humans ceased, and under the control of Ling’er and the Mud Fox, an alliance was formed with the humans,

acknowledging their status .

This led to the unification of humanity… Finally.

Afterwards, the Empress represented humanity, Ling’er represented the myriad races, and the Mud Fox represented the gods.

Together, they formed an agreement called the Pure Ancient Alliance,

jointly sweeping through all hidden places on the Wanggu Continent, searching for clues and hidden forces extending in from beyond Wanggu through various means.

Thus, time flowed again.

Another twenty years passed.

Xu Qing had been in seclusion for forty years.

In the latter twenty years, the human race’s position had become completely stable, and the Li Xia Human Emperor had become the Li Xia Ancient Emperor.

The development of the human race was similarly solidified.

If it weren’t for the lingering remnants of the heavens, constantly causing unease among the people of Wanggu, it would already be described as a golden age.

Ning Yan has grown remarkably over these years, and under the Empress’s meticulous guidance, he now truly possesses the qualities of a crown prince.

Besides Ning Yan, several others have also forged their own paths during this time.

For example, Wu Jianwu has created his own lineage, focusing on beast incubation. Although his own cultivation is limited, the beasts that accompanied him in the past are now extraordinary.

Then there’s Kong Xianglong, a descendant of the former Palace Master of the Sword-Holding Palace in Fenghai County, who has fully inherited Kong Liangxiu’s will to wield the sword for humanity, becoming the acting Palace Master of the Human Sword-Holding Palace. He

only needs sufficient cultivation to officially assume the position.

Each person is walking their own path, setting sail on their own journey. The overall

situation in Wanggu is similar. Under the joint protection of humans, gods, and otherworldly beings, most of the external clues hidden within Wanggu have been uncovered and recorded.

It seems that there are no more hidden places in the entire Wanggu.

Except… one place!

There, neither alien races, gods, nor humans have ever set foot.

Even Seventh Master only gazed from the outside before ultimately choosing to leave.

Thus, that place has become the only special place on the Ancient Continent!

Its name is the Devouring Heaven Domain!

The location of the returned Purple-Azure Upper Kingdom!

No one entered, and none of the beings within the Devouring Heaven Domain ventured out.

It seemed everyone was waiting.

Until, two years later… at the port of the Seven Blood Eyes of Southern Phoenix Continent, the magic ship that had been moored there for forty-two years vanished silently,

leaving only the rippling sea .

In the Radiant Heaven World, at the moment the magic ship disappeared, a figure appeared beside Er Niu’s sleeping body.

Seventh Master, sitting cross-legged before his master’s tomb, was completely unaware.

The figure didn’t disturb him, merely gazing at Er Niu.

Then it disappeared.

The next instant, outside the human capital, before the statue of the Sword-Holding Emperor, this figure appeared.

No one saw it, and no one sensed it.

Xu Qing stood before the Sword-Holding Emperor, looking up at the statue.

At this moment, he wore a black robe and had purple hair, looking almost identical to forty-two years ago, except that the spirit in his eyes seemed even more profound.

He gazed at the statue for a long, long time, then bowed deeply.

Then he turned his head, looking towards Fenghai County.

“She’s waking up…”

Xu Qing murmured, a gentle smile appearing on her face, as she took a step towards Fenghai County.

Meanwhile, below Fenghai County, in the vast underground palace, within a phoenix-shaped hall,

the light of an oil lamp slowly began to burn.

It was the glow of a purple-black lamp.

In its glow, a woman could be seen sitting cross-legged in the tranquil hall.

She wore a purple silk dress, the hem of which cascaded around her like light clouds, swaying gently in the faint breeze, carrying a subtle fragrance. Her

face was elegant, her skin as white as snow.

Her slightly upturned eyebrows seemed to hold endless emotions, yet also exuded a cool, ethereal charm.

She sat quietly cross-legged on a futon, her hands resting naturally on her knees, her fingers long and slender, as white as scallions.

From afar, she resembled a breathtakingly beautiful painting.

It was as if time itself had stood still for her, to freeze this exquisite scene forever.

Until… the next instant.

Her eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes, gazing at the palace gate.

Stars seemed to shimmer in her eyes, lively and profound, illuminating the world.

And at that moment, the palace gate was gently pushed open from the outside.
