Outside Of Time Chapter 1681: Forbid!

Chapter 1681: Forbid!

Editor: Atlas Studios

When he left the Immortal Heroes Tomb, Xu Qing followed the guidance of his heart to guide him and gazed toward the imagined location of the Ninth Star Ring.

Amid the vast and boundless sea of stars, Xu Qing couldn’t be certain if what he looked toward was truly the Ninth Star Ring.

Even though his divine avatar resided in w.a.n.ggu, and his heart faintly guided him, the immense distance rendered everything obscure and unclear.

Despite this uncertainty, despite not being able to see anything at all, and even though he wasn’t entirely sure if that was the precise location of the Ninth Star Ring, he understood the reason for this thought.

He missed home.

He missed w.a.n.ggu, the people within it, the places, and everything else…

“There will definitely be a day when w.a.n.ggu, like the Fifth Star Ring, has no anomalous substances and is filled with immortal energy.”

“The surviving G.o.ds might change their path and cultivate immortality!”

A long time later, Xu Qing retracted his gaze.

It wasn’t time to go back yet.

He wasn’t strong enough.

Nor could he yet change or protect anything.

“Soon…”

Xu Qing remained silent for a long time. Finally, he collected all his thoughts and took out the immortal token of the Ink Yang Universe. With a squeeze, his figure instantly blurred. Waves of energy spread outward from him as he was teleported away in an instant.

The teleportation between the universes involved an immense power of spatial energy, bolstered by the support of higher Ordinances, each indispensable.

Only then could the cultivators in the Nine Sh.o.r.es Heaven teleport as usual.

Even with Xu Qing’s current cultivation, even though he had a deep understanding of s.p.a.ce, he could only see a little of it. He couldn’t see the exact essence.

“There are secrets…”

“I think it has something to do with the Nine Sh.o.r.es Immortal Lord.”

Xu Qing mumbled inwardly. He couldn’t understand the level of the Immortal Lord.

Right now, he could only see a blurry corner.

The s.p.a.ce in front of him distorted and the void changed. The starry sky… changed at a slow speed and was gradually replaced.

In the end, when everything recovered, what entered Xu Qing’s eyes was no longer the Heroes’ Tomb but the interior of the immortal palace in the Ink Yang Universe!

The moment he pushed open the immortal palace’s door, the Ink Yang Universe appeared in front of Xu Qing.

He took a step forward and instantly disappeared.

When he appeared again, Xu Qing was outside of the Ink Land.

He saw the alluring fox-woman reclining there in a leisurely pose, enjoying Herself as She clapped rhythmically for the flock of enchanting beauties dancing gracefully before Her.

Noticing Xu Qing’s return, the fox beauty was a little surprised and pouted.

“Hey, you rascal, back so soon?”

“Couldn’t you let me know ahead of time so I could get ready? Is this a surprise inspection?”

“Oh well, big sis won’t hold it against you. So, how did it go this time? Smooth sailing?”

Xu Qing was already immune to the clay fox’s teasing. Hence, he calmly spoke.

“Yes, it went smoothly. You can continue.”

With that, Xu Qing sat down cross-legged and ignored the fox beauty. Instead, he took out the item given by the tomb keeper in Heroes’ Tomb. He placed it in front of him and fused his divine sense into it to study it carefully.

Seeing that Xu Qing wasn’t paying much attention to Her, the fox beauty chuckled but didn’t take it to heart. Xu Qing was used to their relation, and She was also used to it.

She just enjoyed teasing him, relis.h.i.+ng the way Xu Qing responded with firm rejection.

From it, She rediscovered a kind of joy She had once thought was slipping away, a joy that eventually returned—one tied to the essence of humanity.

This happiness made Her feel truly alive.

So, She chose to ignore Her divine nature, fully immersing Herself in the human experience. Glancing at the graceful dancers nearby and then at Xu Qing, who sat cross-legged in meditation, She suddenly laughed.

On one side were beautiful women, and on the other, a handsome man.

“These are the spoils of my conquest!”

The fox beauty was happy.

She understood all too well that She was different from those innate G.o.ds.

Her humanity had not entirely faded, nor did She wish for it to completely vanish. Each time She teased Xu Qing, that lingering humanity seemed to stir and come alive.

“This is quite good.”

The fox beauty took a bite of the immortal fruit beside her and her eyes narrowed into crescent moons. She was satisfied.

Time slowly pa.s.sed.

Very soon, several months pa.s.sed.

During these few months, the fox beauty enjoyed Her life, while Xu Qing was completely immersed in his research on that bell.

The material of this bell was quite peculiar.

Xu Qing tried many methods but he couldn’t leave the slightest mark on the bell.

Even his Parallel Ordinance was ineffective against this item.

This item couldn’t appear in other s.p.a.ce-times!

There seemed to be a force surrounding it, stopping it from leaving this s.p.a.ce-time!

“This should be what that senior guarding the tomb said… a trace of the might of a Lord G.o.d!”

“Although the previous owner of this item died at the hands of the Lord G.o.d, this treasure wasn’t destroyed. Moreover, it left safely… It wasn’t taken by that Lord G.o.d.”

“If we exclude the deliberate action of that Lord G.o.d, it’s enough to show that this item is extraordinary!”

“However, there’s no clapper in this bell.”

“But I’ve made some gains in the past few months!”

A strange glint appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes.

During these few months, although no external force could leave a mark on the bell, through the nourishment of his immortal embryo, he still formed a connection with the bell.

Originally, this connection could have been deeper.

This was because this bell no longer had an owner. It could be said that it didn’t reject Xu Qing’s nourishment at all. Instead, it was extremely cooperative. Rather than saying that Xu Qing was nouris.h.i.+ng it, it was more like it was like dry land taking the initiative to search for water.

However, Xu Qing had always been cautious when it came to things he couldn’t see through.

Hence, he controlled the rhythm of this nourishment. Moreover, he had also firmly grasped the initiative of this connection.

If the situation wasn’t good, he would directly cut it off.

“Now, the way to display the might of this treasure should be sound!”

Xu Qing raised his right hand and waved it. Immediately, the iron stick refined in the Dao Refinement Universe flew out, s.h.i.+ning with sharpness in front of Xu Qing.

Xu Qing pondered as he stared at the bell.

After confirming that there were no mistakes in his thoughts, his expression was decisive. He controlled the iron stick and knocked fiercely on the bell.

The moment the iron stick touched the bell, the entire bell trembled violently.

A crisp and long bell chime suddenly rang out.

This sound was ethereal. The moment it appeared, the fine wine the fox beauty picked up instantly disintegrated. The bed under Her and the surrounding beauties that She materialized were the same.

They instantly disappeared.

The fox beauty was so shocked that She suddenly stood up and retreated repeatedly. Her body turned blurry and the Divine Platform was revealed. She revealed a shocked expression.

“What is this!”

It wasn’t just the fox beauty. The starry sky in the surroundings trembled.

This sound continued to echo and the range it covered was endless. It seemed to echo in the minds of all living beings and the lingering sound penetrated everything.

This caused the area covered by the bell in the Ink Yang Universe to instantly fall silent.

In this silence, all illusion spells disappeared, all spells disintegrated, and all divine arts collapsed.

Xu Qing was shaken.

He finally understood the specific function of this bell treasure!

“Forbidding all spells!”

“Judging from the clay fox’s appearance, even G.o.ds can be affected by it!”

Unfortunately, at the next instant, as the sound of the bell disappeared, the surroundings returned to normal.

The beauties beside the fox beauty appeared again, and the missing wine also appeared in Her hand again.

However, the fox beauty was no longer in the mood to taste it.

She looked at Xu Qing solemnly and spoke in a low voice.

“This treasure… can restrain G.o.ds!”

Xu Qing nodded.

“It’s a killing weapon!”

After saying that, Xu Qing focused and continued to study the bell.

The fox beauty looked at it for a long time and sighed.

This Fifth Star Ring once again made Her feel terror.

‘I wonder how much of a commotion this Little Xu will bring to the G.o.ds when he returns to w.a.n.ggu.’

‘Forget it, it has nothing to do with me.’

At the thought of this, the fox beauty continued to enjoy Herself.

Time pa.s.sed again.

Xu Qing’s research stopped a few months later. In the following days, he immersed himself in cultivation to stabilize the immortal embryo and build a solid foundation for his previous advancements.

This caused his state to become increasingly stable.

This lasted until the agreed-upon day of summoning finally arrived.

On this day, a dignified voice echoed from Xu Qing’s Universe Immortal Token and entered his mind.

“This batch’s ascenders, all of you are required to report to the Reception Universe within twenty-four universe hours and await orders.”

“You will be a.s.signed duties and truly integrate into Nine Sh.o.r.es Heaven.”

This voice did not merely echo in Xu Qing’s mind—it resonated in the hearts of every ascender of this batch.

Those people scattered in the various universes, no matter what they were doing, had solemn expressions and antic.i.p.ation in their hearts.

Xu Qing also slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes gleamed.

“It’s finally time.”

Xu Qing stood up. The fox beauty also retracted all Her illusions and walked to Xu Qing’s side, stretching Her back.

“Enough lounging around; it’s time to stir things up a bit. I’m really looking forward to the future.”
