Outside Of Time

784 Treading Through the Thorns, Advancing Towards the Throne! (1)
The Ancient Spirit Emperor’s divine sense echoed through the entire Ancient Spirit World like thunder.

Not only could the listener hear it with their ears but they could also sense it with their minds. Even their souls would instinctively tremble under this divine sense.

That was the intimidation and suppression from life level.

The god’s finger suddenly stiffened.

Fear erupted like a tide, transforming into grief, indignation, and despair that filled Its mind.

Xu Qing’s broken body also trembled under the lockdown of the divine sense.

Even though his body was extraordinary, it was still rapidly destroyed. His injuries were constantly expanding and the remaining divine power in him couldn’t hold them back for too long.

However, Xu Qing didn’t have the time to pay attention to his injuries. He tried his best to calm himself down.

He was aware that, at this moment, he couldn’t make any direct moves that would anger the other party.

But before Xu Qing could speak, the Ancient Spirit Emperor showed impatience. His divine sense rumbled, causing the sky to darken further. The underworld river churned again, revealing countless bones that were horrifying to behold.

A majestic suction force erupted at this instant. It was like a huge vortex that enveloped Xu Qing, revealing greed and desire.

Xu Qing’s body trembled and the flesh on his body was instantly sucked away. The aura of life also rapidly scattered and he was gradually rotting.

The god’s finger in his body wailed mournfully. Under this suction force, Its soul was dissipating, transforming into wisps of black fog that were extracted from Xu Qing’s entire body and gathered in the air, forming the shadow of an illusory finger.

The process was excruciatingly painful for the god’s finger. It felt that Its life was really miserable.

It was clearly a god as well…
However, Its main body had been devoured by the Crimson Goddess, and now It was getting devoured as well. It didn’t know what was going on. Its divine authority was misfortune, and yet misfortune had befallen upon Itself.

It struggled to break free, but it was futile. The more It resisted, the tighter the grip on It became as though It was a prey caught in a predator’s jaws.

More soul fog spread out from Xu Qing’s body.

From afar, these soul fog rose and distorted the surroundings, blurring the void around Xu Qing.

There was also the god’s aura that emitted from the god’s finger that had changed from illusory to corporeal.

Xu Qing fell silent. The Ancient Spirit Emperor wasn’t only absorbing the god’s finger, but also his life and divine essence.

As the other party continued to extract Its essence, the god’s finger was falling from Its god status to the level of a cultivator.

Xu Qing wasn’t surprised by the malicious intent of the Ancient Spirit Emperor.

The relationship between him and the Ancient Spirit Emperor wasn’t harmonious to begin with. It was impossible for the other party’s attitude toward him to instantly change because of a piece of food.

This was also the reason why Xu Qing wasn’t willing to use the Spirit Abyss Talisman unless it was absolutely necessary.

Those who drove tigers and devoured wolves were like walking on the edge of a cliff. If they were not careful, they would die at the bottom of the abyss.

However, his previous sincerity gave him a chance to talk at this moment.

Xu Qing calmly spoke.

“Your Majesty, are you satisfied with the interest from before?”

The Ancient Spirit Emperor ignored him. It was as though all His attention was on the snack above Xu Qing that was becoming clearer.

As for Xu Qing’s life that was also being extracted, the Ancient Spirit Emperor didn’t care. It was like the sesame seeds that would make the snack more fragrant.

Seeing this, the god’s finger fell into complete despair. Just as Its figure became clearer and was about to be completely extracted from Xu Qing’s body, Xu Qing’s voice rang out again without any fluctuations.

“Your Majesty, what you are absorbing right now is not the second installment of interest. This is the tool that I will be borrowing from you temporarily, and if you take it back, there might not be any interest in the future.”

Xu Qing’s words seemed to fall on deaf ears, and the Ancient Spirit Emperor didn’t respond at all. However, as his words spread, the Ancient Spirit Emperor’s massive eyes suddenly turned towards him with a hint of surprise.

Countless evil souls arrived from all directions and circled around while emitting an intense desire to devour.

All of this transformed into dense malice that spread through the world, forming an intense pressure that descended on Xu Qing.

Xu Qing calmly stared at the huge eye, ignoring the fact that his body had collapsed again. As blood flowed, his originally 300-foot-long body was now only the size of an ordinary person and had countless injuries.

“Your Majesty, there’s a lot of food outside but I’m probably the only one who’s willing to send them to you.”

“If you devour the tool you are lending to me and me as well, then the interest will be gone.”

Xu Qing’s eyes were clear, and he didn’t lie. He simply presented the ownership of the god’s finger in a different way, allowing for smoother communication with the Ancient Spirit Emperor.

He believed that an existence like the Ancient Spirit Emperor could sense his sincerity.

If it weren’t for the intervention of the god’s finger at the critical moment, Xu Qing wouldn’t have been able to approach the fragmented-face of the Deputy Governor and teleport him to this place.

The suction force from the underworld river suddenly paused.

Only the sound of swallowing saliva repeatedly echoed, seemingly suppressing the intense hunger and greed emanating from within, sending shivers down one’s spine.

Every living being who heard this sound would instinctively feel an overwhelming fear, as if they were about to be devoured and consumed as food.

The god’s finger had materialized by about 80% now. Despite the despair, the realization that Xu Qing was trying to protect It stirred a mix of excitement, nervousness, and indescribable emotions within It.
