Outside of Time

Inside the Tucheng drug store, everything was quiet.

Xiao Miao shook a few times and found that no one was paying attention to her, so she curiously reached out from the branch and peeked into the back room.

After waiting for a moment, it noticed that there was still no sound. It carefully pulled out its roots from the soil, as if it had finally waited for the opportunity and was planning to escape.

The fused fish bone of the King Kong Sect ancestor appeared in front of Xiao Miao, with the bone tip pointing at its body.

But just as it pulled up all its roots and jumped out of the flowerpot, preparing to leave quietly, a wave of

The young seedling trembled, slowly crawled back into the flower pot, pulled out its roots as much as possible and put them back again, then continued shaking in a flattering manner.

The fishbone circled around it and returned to the beam in a flash.

"If I let this little thing escape, the evil star will definitely be angry with me when he comes back." The ancestor of the King Kong Sect sneered in his heart, and then looked towards the back room. Due to the ambiguity of his existence, he could not detect the specifics, but based on his subtle connection with Xu Qing, he vaguely felt that Xu Qing's aura was no longer in the back room.

This is indeed the case.

There was no one in the back room. What entered the crack in the mirror was not the consciousness, but the true bodies of Xu Qing and Ling'er. This was also the magic of the Niyue Palace.

But at this moment, the journey to this magical place did not bring good feelings to Xu Qing.

He felt that he had entered a narrow place full of squeezing feeling, and the surrounding light shone and turned into a wall of light, enveloping him.

The arc of the light wall formed a circle. It was extremely hard and at the same time bound Xu Qing's body tightly, making him unable to move, as if he was stuck there.

The more he struggled, the stronger the restraint became, as if he could not move forward but could only retreat.

Xu Qing frowned. He didn't expect that after entering the crack, he would actually appear in such a ghost place...

"Is this the third test?

Xu Qing was thoughtful. From his research on the "Mirror" some time ago, he felt that there were three assessment items in total. He figured out the specifics of the first two items, but had no knowledge of the third item. So after pondering, Xu Qing tried to let go of his spiritual consciousness, not taking it easy on Cheng. Squeezes from all directions restricted not only his physical body, but also his perception.

Especially the surrounding light walls are powerful and cannot be penetrated by spiritual consciousness. Fortunately, the front is relatively smooth, so in his little attempts, his spiritual consciousness finally moved forward, and he continued to work hard... , he gradually realized where he was.

"A pipeline?"

As for the end, it was beyond the scope of his spiritual consciousness and could not be explored, but the vast fluctuations that could be heard vaguely allowed him to guess that it should be the Niyue Palace where he was going.

It's a bit interesting. It seems that this is indeed the third test. If you can't follow this pipeline path, you will not be qualified to enter the Moon-Reverse Palace.

Xu Qing's eyes showed a bright light. He wanted to join Nimu Palace at first because Duanmu Zang said that the people in Niqie Palace have studied curses for generations and have a deep understanding of curses, so Xu Qing planned to go and get some Regarding the information about the curse, after all, one person's research is not as good as a group of people's countless years of pondering and analysis...

This will play a big role in "Xu Qing's mastery of the curse" and can save a lot of time. Now, in addition to needing information about the curse, he was also curious about the Moon-Reverse Palace itself.

"No wonder Senior Brother wants to join."

Xu Qing's eyes were firm, his cultivation exploded, and his physical body surged. With the help of this divine body, he suppressed the surroundings.

As the roaring sound reverberated, Xu Qing's body trembled. The surrounding light walls were too hard. Even if he tried his best, he still couldn't expand much. His body only expanded to a height of half a foot, which was the limit.

The feeling of being squeezed so hard that his body and soul could not help but feel angry in Xu Qing's heart. He suddenly retracted his body, returning to normal from half a foot tall.

The surrounding walls also retracted rapidly, but there were still some gaps between them.

Taking advantage of the gap between the retraction of the wall, Xu Qing raised his right hand, and his body's cultivation began to circulate. Except for Ziyue, the other Nascent Souls exploded and punched forward.

This punch gathered the power of Poison, Ghost Emperor Mountain, Heavenly Dao, Time Bottle and Golden Crow, as well as the power of his Life Lantern to form a storm, roaring forward.

The sound of clicking spread, and Xu Qing rushed out, stepping forward a few feet from where he was. As the feeling of restraint gripped him again, Xu Qing gritted his teeth and continued to move forward in the same way.

I don't know how long they went, Xu Qing kept blasting the way forward, although it was difficult to move forward, but in the end, he walked a hundred feet.

After arriving here, he was exhausted and felt the distant end. Xu Qing had to sigh and chose to leave, return to the medicine shop, and continue to enter the mirror after resting.

The place opened up before did not disappear with Xu Qing's return. He gritted his teeth at the position of Baizhang, with determination in his eyes, and continued to bombard forward.

In this way, Ling'er didn't need to follow her every day. With her mark, Xu Qing could go alone, so Ling'er reopened the medicine shop.

But sometimes she would still look back at the back room and pay attention to the progress of brother Xu Qing.

This Niyue Palace is so difficult. With Xu Qing’s ability, he has not been able to enter it for so long. "Ling'er felt a similar sigh in her heart, and it also rose up in Xu Qing's heart many times.

Months later, amid the increasingly intense roar. , Xu Qing, who had opened up the road to the Niyue Palace by almost three thousand feet, returned to the medicine shop again. The moment he appeared, he panted and sat down cross-legged, with eyes in his eyes. There is bloodshot eyes.

"It's only opened 30%, and it's still more than 7,000 feet away from the end.

Those who can enter the Nimu Palace must be extremely powerful, or at least they are Lingzang?" Xu Qing felt awe in his heart, and the organization was looking forward to it more and more. He felt that he could successfully pass the second assessment and open the agreement. Anyone who enters the road is an extraordinary person.

"I can too!"

Xu Qing looked decisive. After taking a break, he stepped into the mirror again and continued to blast away.

The repeated actions also allowed Xu Qing to gain experience. Under this continuous squeezing, his body became stronger, and the size it could support after expansion also increased from half a foot to ten feet. In this way, he The speed also accelerated a lot, until after another half month, he successfully blasted this principle to a range of eight thousand feet.

Standing there, he looked back at the way he came, only to feel that it was extremely difficult. Then he raised his head and felt two thousand feet away, and in his heart he became more and more in awe of the people in the Niyue Palace.

There are still two thousand feet, I hope that’s where the Niyue Palace will be!”

In the distance, at the end of the road that Xu Qing forcibly opened, the connecting place is indeed the Niyue Palace.

The Niyue Palace is a separate space, which is astonishingly vast. There is a huge mountain of indescribable size.

There are 100,000 ancient temples built on one of this giant mountains. Although they are far apart from each other, they are still densely packed from a distance. Every temple inside is full of vicissitudes of life, as if time flows together here. It has flowed without beginning or end for who knows how long.

Some of those temples shine with light, and some are completely dark. Those temples with light seem to have statues inside, emitting brilliance. 1 Sometimes there are statues coming out of the temple, flying in the world, and going to other temples.

Their whole bodies are often covered with soft light, and they have a sacred meaning. They have different shapes. From a distance, they look like thousands of gods and demons.

At the bottom of this huge mountain, there are the most temples, half of which are dull and half of which are shining. There is a temple among many shining temples.

It was originally unremarkable, but within a month, it attracted the attention of the statues in other temples around it because it was too noisy.

At this moment, as Xu Qing kept opening the passage, a huge roar spread from this ordinary temple and spread nearby, and the sound continued.

"Here we go again!" In the surrounding temples, three or five statues suddenly stepped out, glaring at the roaring temple.

Damn it, this guy is endless, what is he doing!"

It's been a month. If this person wants to come in, he should hurry in and keep bombarding the light of guidance. What on earth is he thinking?

"Neuropathy!"

"There must be something wrong with your brain!"

As the roar became more intense, more statues walked out of the nearby temple, and each of them looked over helplessly.

"I have never seen anything like this. For us, we can walk through the passage in an instant. Why is this person banging back and forth like this?"

Is it to show off one's fighting power?

But there is nothing to show for it. The Niyue Palace has been without an owner for many years, and the weapon spirit has been sleeping. It only provides the most basic abilities, and in order to maintain continuous operation, this... The light of reception is determined according to the examiner's cultivation level. Just so that the assessors can be brought in without any hindrance. "

"This guy can walk here just by taking a step. Why is it that he is roaring while walking, as if it is extremely difficult! The roaring continues during this discussion, and becomes more and more intense.

The nearby statues all frowned, but they had no choice. They were not allowed to enter the temple before it was opened, so they could only choose to return one by one and not listen to the annoying roar.

Fortunately, this time it didn't last too long. After the roar echoed for another two hours, it became quiet and Xu Qing was tired.

He panted heavily, looked at the remaining distance of more than a thousand feet, and chose to return. The moment 1 appeared in the back room of the drug store, Xu Qing's eyes showed firmness. In three or four days at most, it will definitely be blasted!

Thinking that he could finally pass this third test, Xu Qing felt very emotional. He thought it was too difficult.

“After entering, you must be more cautious and vigilant, the people inside are not to be trifled with.

Xu Qing looked solemn. Before he closed his eyes and meditated to recuperate, he glanced outside the medicine shop... There were some people queuing there.

As the drug store's reputation spread in Tucheng, the business has been getting better and better. Especially the middle-aged monk who bought the detoxification pill from him. Because he successfully resolved the crisis, he became more and more interested in Xu Qing's side. Respectfully.

Under their intimidation, many small forces did not dare to provoke the drug store. With their protection, the sale of elixirs was extremely smooth. Basically, Baibai Danshang could be sold every day. Fortunately, Xu Qing had a lot of inventory and would occasionally refine it. As for medicinal herbs, in addition to his own accumulation over the years, he also purchases from external parties.

Although they didn't receive much, the middle-aged monk Chen Fanzhuo would come occasionally. Every time, he was polite and respectful, and brought a lot of medicinal herbs.

Sometimes Xu Qing was not around. After he brought the herbs, he knew it would be inconvenient to disturb him, so he clasped his fists at Ling'er and turned around to leave.

This general sense of propriety makes it difficult for people to feel bad. At this moment, the figure of Chen Fanzhuo appeared again at the door. He did not rely on his identity and cultivation to ignore the people queuing outside, but waited aside until free time. , he just walked into the drug store.

"Uncle Chen." Ling'er looked up, saw the middle-year monk, and greeted him with a smile.

Miss Ling'er, is the master still making alchemy? Chen Fanzhuo said politely, took out a bag full of herbs, put it behind the counter and glanced at the back room.

Just as Ling'er was about to speak, he seemed to be investigating something. The curtain in the back room was lifted and Xu Qing came out,..."Greetings to the master." Chen Fanzhuo looked solemn and clasped his fists in greeting.

Xu Qing nodded, his eyes looking at each other. "Scanning around, Chen Fanzhuo's heart moved. Last time, Chen Fanzhuo contained poison in his body. According to his detoxification pill, the poison should have dissipated now, but now he sees the poison." Not only did some remain, but there was also a new poison. Xu Qing thought thoughtfully, raised his right hand and took out a white pill, handed it to you and held it in your mouth. melt.

Chen Fanzhuo was startled. He sensed something was wrong from Xu Qing's words, so he hesitated and put the elixir into his mouth. Run your cultivation according to Xu Qing's requirements.

After a while, the elixir in his mouth completely dissolved and spread throughout his body, Xu Qing suddenly spoke. "Cultivation power gathered on the index finger of the right hand, took out a drop of blood, and fell on this leaf."

Xu Qing raised his hand and took out a yellow herb. After putting it aside, Chen Fanzhuo immediately pricked his index finger without any hesitation, and a drop of black blood overflowed from the wound.

Waves of unpleasant smell spread. After Chen Fanzhuo smelled it, his expression changed drastically. He originally thought that his poison had been resolved, but looking at it now, it was obvious that it was still there. So he did not dare to be careless and hurriedly smeared this drop of blood on many One of the yellow herbs given by Qing.

The moment this blood touches the medicinal herbs, the medicinal herbs make a sizzling sound

A puff of green smoke rose up and squirmed in the air, and there was a faint roar echoing from the soul.

Looking at this scene, Chen Fanzhuo shrank his eyes and waved his hands in a protective posture, as if he didn't want the strangeness in the green smoke to contaminate the medicine shop.

Although this action is a bit fake, the attitude revealed is very correct.

Xu Qing glanced at him, took out a transparent elixir bottle, shook it and opened it. The breath emanating from it seemed to have a strong attraction to the green smoke.

So in the next moment, this cloud of green smoke went straight to the elixir bottle in Xu Qing's hand. After blending into it in the blink of an eye, Xu Qing pressed the cork of the bottle and held it in his hand for observation.

I saw the green smoke in the elixir bottle, constantly squirming and condensing in this small area, and finally turned into a green centipede. It looks very ferocious, but if you look closely, you can see that this big centipede is composed of countless small centipedes.

"Master, this is..." Chen Fanzhuo was shocked. He shuddered at the thought that there was such a strange thing in a drop of his blood.

This is the soul of Yuhu, a special medicinal material that is not very common, with ordinary toxicity. It is more about tracking and locking, providing a location for the caster, but with other methods, it can be refined into poisonous poison. "

Xu Qing was a little happy. He didn't expect to find this precious thing recorded in Master Bai's pharmacopoeia here, so he spoke with satisfaction.

You are being stared at. Judging from the restlessness of this insect soul, the person staring at you should not be far from here. While Xu Qing was talking, the cyan aphrodisiac in the vial suddenly became violent and hit the bottle. The vial shook violently, but it could not escape Xu Qing's grasp.

"Huh? The person who is targeting you is approaching. ...Xu Qing said calmly.

Chen Fanzhuo's expression changed, he bowed solemnly to Xu Qing, then turned and walked towards the door.

He knew that the master of this medicine shop had no obligation to help him resolve the crisis. It was benevolent to detoxify him and inform him of this.

If you don't know what's good for you and forcefully drag the other person into a personal vendetta, this is not in line with your own principles.

Thinking of this, he quickly walked to the door, pushed open the door of the drug store and was about to step out when Xu Qing's voice echoed behind him.

"he came."

The moment Xu Qing's words came out, the sky in Tucheng became turbulent. Large clouds of fog rolled in Tianmu, and there were faint sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling.

This sound was so penetrating that after hearing it, the residents of the city were shocked and quickly closed the doors of their homes. Even those who were outside immediately found an empty house to crawl into. In the blink of an eye, the entire town was empty.

At this moment, the black mist in the sky gathered towards the city, and finally formed a figure on the street... As it became clearer, the appearance of this figure was also revealed.

He is an old man wearing a loose robe. His white hair is swaying as his Nascent Soul cultivation level fluctuates. His eyes are cold and the corners of his mouth are even more sarcastic.

And the edge of his robe was still a little atomized in the wind. All this makes this old man look extremely strange...

"You dare to steal my things, you are so tired of living."

This old man is the one-eyed monk who provoked Xu Qing. After his previous conflict with Xu Qing, he was always on tenterhooks and full of panic.

In order to avoid Xu Qing, he had to hide until he felt that the limelight had passed, and then he cautiously went out. However, he did not expect that the cave he once had was stolen.

He carefully explored the traces and judged that the thief's cultivation level should be golden elixir, and his anger burned.

And he had a habit of poisoning, so he followed the trace and found it.

At this moment, with the help of Du Yin's induction, the first time he looked at Chen Fanzhuo, he immediately confirmed that it was the other party who had done it. His eyes could not help but reveal a cold look, and he was about to leave.

But the location where Chen Fanzhuo is at this moment is the entrance of Xu Qing's medicine shop.

As the old man's peripheral vision swept over Chen Fanzhuo, he also instinctively glanced at the scene in the drug store behind Fang Fang, so he saw an ugly girl and an expressionless young man inside.

The moment he saw the young man, the old man's eyes suddenly shrank, his steps suddenly stopped, his body gradually began to tremble uncontrollably, and his mind was in a state of chaos.

"It's him!"

"He's actually here!!"

The old man's breathing was rapid, and his mind was like a million thunderbolts exploding at this moment, roaring continuously. Not to mention that his whole body was shattered, but he was not much better. In fact, his fear of Xu Qing has reached its extreme level. The terrifying combat power that Xu Qing unleashed that day makes him tremble every time he thinks about it these days.

Especially in his judgment, the other party was an old monster, and his cultivation level must be more than that. In addition, Xu Qing's keenness was also the reason why the old man was frightened.

Adding more poison was ineffective, and all of this caused him to experience endless life-and-death crises at this moment.

The most important thing is that what he has arrived now is his true body!

Just as frightened as him was Chen Fanzhuo, who had indeed stolen a cave some time ago at a considerable cost.

The cave looked like it had been abandoned for a long time, and there were many valuable items in it. After holding those items, he was frightened, but after observing for a while, he found that no one came to investigate. So I felt relaxed, and then I realized I was poisoned, so I went to the drug store. He already felt bad when he heard Xu Qing told him that he was being tracked and targeted.

Now I can see it with my own eyes! Seeing the rightful master, the fluctuation of Fang Na Yuan Ying made him fall into great panic.

Even his body lost the ability to escape, and he could only stand there under the huge pressure, trembling, his body shook, and he reluctantly spoke.

"Senior, please calm down, I will admit my mistake...all the items are still there...

But his words had no effect, and the frightened old man was still too scared to move.

The old man no longer cared about the small matter of the cave being stolen... What he was thinking about now was how he could survive.

Seen from a distance, this scene was full of weirdness. Chen Fanzhuo looked at the old man in horror, and the old man looked ahead in fear. Both of them did not dare to lift their feet.

The scene fell into silence for a moment.

But when the old man didn't speak, Chen Fanzhuo's fear became even more intense. When Xu Qing didn't speak, the old man's fear was like the ocean. In this life-and-death crisis, the old man's brain turned extremely fast and analyzed rapidly.

This is a drug store, and that ugly girl is the source of the fragrance. Judging from her clothes, she is clearly the waiter. This is a drug store opened by an old monster!"

That the little golden elixir thief was so frightened meant that he was not one of the old monster's people, and most likely, he didn't know the old monster's cultivation level.

"The old monster must not want to be exposed, so why is he hiding here?..."Because he has some mysterious plans!"

And my appearance and performance may have indirectly exposed the old monster's cultivation level, thereby affecting his mysterious arrangement. In this case, he will definitely be angry with me. "

"If I turned around and ran away, it would be the same ending!"

"Beat again and again without paying, escape but unable to escape..."

The old man's heart was extremely entangled, and when he was in a dilemma, his eyes turned red.

As Chen Fanzhuo's mind became more and more trembling, the old man gritted his teeth, raised his feet and took a step forward. The expression on his face instantly changed from the solemn one to one of ecstasy, and he shouted excitedly.

"My dear friend, are you here too?"

Chen Fanzhuo was stunned.
