Outside Of Time

Heavenly lightning exploded!

A rumbling sound echoed through the world. The layers of clouds in the sky were thick and heavy, as though there were living beings from outer space constantly bombarding each other.

Sometimes, there was a muffled thunder and sometimes, there was a series of loud bangs, causing all the residents in the main city to wake up from their sleep.

Bolts of lightning tore through the sky and shockingly tore through the night. The sun that was covered by the clouds seemed to have a chance to catch its breath at this moment. It tried its best to bring the light along with the rain and surge towards the human world.

In the morning, the rain was even heavier.

The wind outside was also much more violent than at night. It was like the roar of a giant that spread in all directions, as though it was fighting against the lightning in the sky. It echoed in the sky and didn't dissipate for a long time.

On the street in the rain, the figure moving under the black paper umbrella gradually blurred.

One could only see the rain pouring down outside the umbrella. As for the part that hit the umbrella paper, it let out crackling sounds. At the same time, it seemed like the mission wasn't completed and it wasn't willing to be blocked. Hence, it flowed along the edge of the umbrella and turned into rain.

They scrambled to land and gathered together with their companions on the ground.

The ripples formed by their reunion completely washed away the blood on the ground last night but it couldn't wash away the sins of humanity in this cruel world.

"Everyone's heart is locked with sin. It's just that the chaotic era made this lock very easy to open." This was what Captain Lei said with emotion during a meal.

Xu Qing felt that it made sense.

The rain became more and more ferocious and the heavenly lightning rumbled more and more. Xu Qing's emotions slowly calmed down under the roar of the heavenly lightning and wind.

Unknowingly, he returned to Port 79. On the violently churning sea, he habitually checked and put down his magic boat.

After stepping in, as the protective barrier rose and the magic boat swayed greatly, Xu Qing sat cross-legged in the black tent.

The activation of the protective barrier prevented the rain from falling. As for the swaying ship, Xu Qing, who had already adapted to all of this, didn't feel any discomfort.

On the contrary, under the shaking, the rumbling outside and the rain that filled the sky, his heart became increasingly calm. He lowered his head and began to refine pills.

During this period of time, Xu Qing had gone to the medicine shop many times to buy medicinal herbs. The number of white pills he refined also increased. Not only that but the number of black pills and poison powder also rose.

As for the small compartments in his black-canopied cabin, there were also more of them. In the dense crowd, one could see a large number of medical herbs and evil herbs.

"I have to find a time to go out and search for a place to refine poison." Xu Qing swept his gaze across those small squares. He then raised his right hand and grabbed. A bunch of medicinal herbs flew over and he continued refining amidst the wind and rain in the outside world.

Just like that, time slowly flowed by. During the entire day, the rain became heavier and heavier, as though it was about to turn into a storm that would set off astonishing waves.

Countless waves crashed onto the shore of the port, causing a large number of boats to shake violently. Fortunately, the boats in the port were all magic boats. After the protective barrier was activated, they could resist the waves. However, from afar, they were like fallen leaves on the surface of the sea, constantly swaying.

It was also because the wind and rain were so heavy that there were no foreign boats entering the port, let alone those who went out. Hence, most of the departments stopped operations and the disciples also stayed in their respective residences.

The entire Seven Blood Eyes Port District stopped operating in this increasingly shocking storm.

Only the killing… was still ongoing.

When the next night arrived, when the wind and rain in the outside world became even stronger and the heavenly lightning completely fused into the wind, Xu Qing suddenly opened his eyes from the cabin of the magic boat that was shaking violently.

A sense of danger surfaced in his mind.

This crisis didn't come from the weather outside but from the shore outside the boat.

Although the wind and rain were violent and blew away many of the poisonous powder that Xu Qing had set up in the surroundings, there was always the aura of some poisonous powder that could last longer in the wind and rain. This was the first warning Xu Qing had prepared for himself.

Once someone got close and was tainted by the aura of his poison powder, if they stepped onto his magic boat, they would fuse with the other poisonous gasses that Xu Qing had set up in the magic boat and turn them into fatal poison.

Other than that, the increase in his mental strength during the entry test and the continuous improvement in the Sea Transformation Art during this period of time had caused his perception to far surpass his peers and be even sharper.

Hence, under this double vigilance, Xu Qing knew that outside… someone was approaching. Furthermore, this person was outside the magic boat.

The cold glint in Xu Qing's eyes was restrained. He didn't wait in the magic boat but directly walked out of the cabin. He stood on the deck and looked at the outside world from within the protective barrier.

Outside, the wind and rain were heavy and lightning flashed. On the shore of his berth, a figure in a raincoat stood with a wine flask in his hand.

He looked at Xu Qing and Xu Qing looked back at him.

After a long time, the figure in the raincoat lifted his bamboo hat slightly, revealing a middle-aged face. He then smiled at Xu Qing.

"Junior Brother Xu, you don't have to be so vigilant. It's me. I went out to buy wine and passed by here. I wanted to ask if you want to drink together? In this damn weather, wouldn't it be better to drink together?"

This person was a disciple of the Homicide Department and was in the same team as Xu Qing. One day, he even invited Xu Qing to drink.

Xu Qing didn't speak and coldly looked at the middle-aged cultivator in front of him.

Seeing Xu Qing like this, the middle-aged cultivator smiled helplessly.

"Forget it. The environment of this damn sect makes it difficult for people to trust each other but I don't have any ill intentions. Junior Brother Xu, I just want to make friends with you. Many people in the team have drunk my wine. Since you don't like it, I'll take my leave."

The middle-aged cultivator shook his head and turned to leave.

However, at that moment, Xu Qing suddenly spoke:

"Alright, get on the boat."

The middle-aged cultivator stopped in his tracks and looked at Xu Qing in surprise before looking at his boat. A dark glint flashed in the depths of his eyes before he shook his head again.

"Forget it, I won't force others."

As he spoke, his footsteps quickened. However, he had just taken five to six steps when a sharp whistling sound suddenly sounded. A dagger broke through the wind and rain at an astonishing speed and headed straight for him.

In an instant, the middle-aged cultivator moved his body to dodge. His expression changed and he was about to turn back when Xu Qing's figure rushed out of the magic boat. With the black iron stick in his hand, he rushed over in the wind and rain.

"Junior Brother Xu, what are you doing?"

The middle-aged cultivator's eyes narrowed and he hurriedly retreated. He formed a hand seal with one hand and the rainwater in the surroundings instantly stopped. They then whistled toward Xu Qing. However, before they could get close, Xu Qing waved his hand and the rainwater that was approaching him instantly trembled. Xu Qing actually controlled it and changed its direction, shooting it at the middle-aged cultivator.

This scene caused the middle-aged cultivator's heart to tremble as he felt an intense sense of danger. He hurriedly bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood, forming a blood mist that spread out to resist the incoming rain arrows. His body suddenly retreated, wanting to escape.

However, it was still too late. He had misjudged Xu Qing's cultivation. In an instant, Xu Qing's figure was like a hot knife through butter as he directly approached. The iron stick in his hand shone brightly as lightning flashed past, emitting a cold light that headed straight for his forehead.

The chill was bone-chilling.

The middle-aged cultivator's eyes turned red as he let out a loud roar. His cultivation erupted completely and several layers of protective light barriers instantly appeared around his body. A sinister-looking bloody mouth also rapidly appeared on his chest, tearing through his clothes as it let out a sharp roar and charged towards Xu Qing.

With a boom, several layers of light barriers collapsed. However, the black iron stick was still slightly paused by the impact of the sound waves from the ferocious mouth on the other party's chest.

Taking advantage of this time, the middle-aged cultivator waved his right hand and the wine pot in his hand headed straight for Xu Qing. His body then erupted with all his might as he unleashed his speed to escape.contemporary romance

As soon as the wine pot appeared, it automatically shattered in midair. What was contained in it wasn't wine but dense venom. As it exploded and spread in all directions, it carried intense corrosion, as though the magic boat's protective barrier could instantly melt.

A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. Previously, he had sensed that something was amiss but he wasn't sure. However, on this stormy night, the other party's arrival was already strange. Hence, under his vigilance, Xu Qing decided to make the first move.

At that moment, killing intent flashed in his eyes. He raised his head and looked at the fleeing middle-aged cultivator. He didn't chase after him but raised his right hand and grabbed fiercely at him.

The Sea Transformation Art in his body erupted.

Immediately, the rainwater in the surroundings trembled and gathered crazily towards the middle-aged cultivator. It vaguely transformed into a large hand formed by the rainwater. No matter how the middle-aged cultivator struggled and was shocked, it was useless. He grabbed fiercely.

There was a boom.

The middle-aged man's body was frozen by the large hand for a long time. His face was pale and fear appeared in his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, Xu Qing's figure had already whistled over. He instantly arrived and the dagger in his right hand slashed across the middle-aged cultivator's neck.

The force was so great that his head flew up.

As blood splattered everywhere, the large mouth on the middle-aged cultivator's chest suddenly bulged out and bit fiercely at Xu Qing's right hand.

Xu Qing suddenly circulated the Mountains and Seas Art in his body. The kui shadow materialized on his arm and he roared silently at the huge mouth, resisting it directly. There was also a huge hand that formed from the surrounding rain that suddenly crushed down forcefully.

With a loud bang, the headless corpse of the middle-aged cultivator collapsed, turning into flesh and blood. The large mouth on his chest also shattered into pieces. Only Xu Qing stood on the spot, his chest heaving slightly.

This battle seemed fast but in reality, this middle-aged man's cultivation wasn't ordinary. His combat strength was very astonishing and was comparable to Xu Qing's strength before he entered the sect.

Even Qing Yunzi, who was killed by Xu Qing yesterday, was far from being a match for this person. After all, the Seven Blood Eyes' Sea Transformation Art cultivator's combat strength far surpassed that of the other small sects.

At that moment, Xu Qing quickly scanned his surroundings, searching for any accomplices. In the wind and rain, the entire harbor was pitch-black. Only the violence of the wind and the light from the lightning could be seen.
