Outside Of Time Chapter 637 - 637 Clues Left Behind by the Palace Master

637 Clues Left Behind by the Palace Master

That night, the Observance and Law Palace Masters left the city and headed to the northern war zone, while the 100,000 Sword Holders of the Sword Holding Palace set off in a majestic manner under the lead of the Palace Master.

These 100,000 people were the elite forces that the entire Fenghai County had accumulated for hundreds of years.

Any one of them was once an outstanding person in the various provinces. After many rounds of assessment, they finally became a Sword Holder.

Every one of them had carried out many missions. Regardless of whether it was killing or resolve, they had experienced many tempering.

It could even be said that they were the core of Fenghai County and were responsible for its future.

However, today, the 100,000 Sword Holders were mobilized.

They headed toward the western warzone with determination, with pledges to fight to the death, and with the oaths they had made in the past.

Xu Qing stood on a mountain peak outside the city and concealed himself. In the dark night, he looked in the direction the army had left in. His hair and the corners of his clothes fluttered in the wind.

He silently stared for a long time before turning around and fusing into the darkness, moving toward the Morning Glow Province.

He was like a lone wolf walking in the dark night.

Morning Glow Province... In the darkness, Xu Qing, who was moving at full speed, felt waves in his mind.

This was because Mount Morning Glow was in the Morning Glow Province.

Back then, the thing he yearned for the most when he came to the county capital was to head to Mount Morning Glow. However, he never expected that he would do it in such a way.

As he moved forward, Xu Qing took out the jade slip given by the Palace Master and began to check it.

Before the Palace Master set off, he told him a lot and expressed his thoughts clearly.

The sudden death of the County Governor was filled with bizarreness and anyone could be the mastermind.

The information contained in the jade slip caused Xu Qing to pause, his breath quickening slightly.

Radiant Life Calamity Pill?

Xu Qing muttered inwardly. Even he who had a deep understanding of the Dao of Medicine had never heard of such a pill.

In the Palace Masters jade slip, there was a detailed introduction to this pill. It was a forbidden pill that was strictly prohibited and destroyed during the era of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether. Its recipe had long been lost and forgotten.

In fact, the ban on this pill back then was supported by all the races. The higher-ups of every race hated this pill deeply.

This Radiant Life Calamity Pill was useless to ordinary cultivators but to the rulers of the various races, it was an irresolvable calamity pill that could kill them.

This was because its principle was related to luck.

After that, during the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nethers era, this pill appeared again and killed many people of the human race who had gathered luck. It also killed many nonhuman rulers. There were even three nonhuman emperors who died from this pill.

Regardless of whether it was the human race or the nonhuman races, as long as they were in the Wanggu Continent, those with high status would naturally gather the luck of their race.

This luck could allow one to possess a certain level of heavenly fate. However, at the same time, if this luck transformed into a calamity, the backlash would be terrifying.

During the investigation in the past half a month, the clues that the Sword Holding Palace Master gathered all led him to this Radiant Life Calamity Pill.

Xu Qings pupils contracted as the information left behind by the Palace Master appeared in his mind.

According to my investigation, there are many possibilities for the County Governors death. However, among these many possibilities, there are only a few... that can affect the Prison Department that Im guarding at the same time.

What the Prison Department was suppressing is the last clone of the god sleeping in the Immortal Forbidden. The suppression method is related to fortune, transforming it into the power of forgetfulness, making the gods clone believe that it is the artifact spirit of the Prison Department.

For subsequent investigators, you can review the file and refer to D132 regarding the Prison Department. D132 is a miniature version and also a representative of the department. You can also consult my edict bearer, Xu Qing. This kid is the last D132 guard and one of the future successors Im nurturing. Hes trustworthy.

The Prison Departments D132 is formed by the spread of suppression. Theres a finger of the gods clone inside and a spirit formed by the fortune of Fenghai County.

The power of the gods clone makes everyone who remembers It to fall into endless misfortune. According to past records, this bad luck will become more terrifying until the person dies.

As for the function of D132s luck spirit, it is to erase the memories of those who see the finger, thereby severing the cause and effect.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, no matter what happens in the county, even if it is the death of the county governor, its impossible for it to implicate the Prison Department. This is because the Prison Department has experienced the appointment and dismissal of many county governors.

After eliminating several possibilities one by one, I finally narrowed the target to the Radiant Life Calamity Pill. As for why I made this connection, the subsequent investigators can refer to classified document 19 for further details.

However, all of this is based on the limited clues I have investigated. Time is pressing, and since the enemy is in the dark while I am in the light, I cannot expose my suspicions. Moreover, the battlefronts are in a precarious situation, and the safety of Fenghai County is more important, so its difficult for me to discreetly conduct further investigations.

Hence, I am sending my edict bearer Xu Qing to secretly investigate and verify a clue.

Thats the Morning Glow.

This is because to activate the Radiant Life Calamity Pill, a certain condition is required, which is the light before the sun sets. This type of light is extremely fleeting.

However, this light will occasionally form on Mount Morning Glow.

With the masterminds cunning and deceptive tactics, there is a strong possibility that this investigation may not yield any significant results, but it must be pursued nonetheless. As for the outcome... if I fall in battle, please consult Xu Qing.

Xu Qing stood on the plains in the dark and silently kept the jade slip. He then looked in the direction of the western battlefront. After a long time, he sped toward the Morning Glow Province.

Just like that, several days passed.

While everyone was thinking that he was still following the Palace Master and had already headed to the battlefield, Xu Qing activated the concealment jade slip that Fairy Zi Xuan had given him and silently arrived at the province line between the county capital and the Morning Glow Province.

This province line wasnt small. Occasionally, a special wind would blow here.

Wherever this gust of wind swept, numerous intermingled spatial cracks emerged in the air, hindering aerial movement and making flight nearly impossible. They could only move on the ground. Strangely enough, this powerful wind seemed to exclusively target the sky, leaving the ground unaffected by its disruptive force.

Legend had it that this wind was a unique climate formed after the sun fell in the Morning Glow Province. It was known by the locals as the solar wind.

When the solar wind blew, unless ones cultivation was astonishingly powerful, it would be difficult to resist.

They could only fly after the wind ended.

Morning Glow Province could only be entered through this area.

Xu Qing sped all the way. When the wind blew, he landed on the ground, and flew again when it ended.. On the way, he also saw the huge impact of the war on Fenghai County.

The small human countries everywhere were in a state of panic.

The villages and towns in the wilderness became increasingly desolate.

Xu Qing saw fear of war and confusion about the future on every human he saw on the way.

The nonhuman races were also the same, but Xu Qing, who had put on an ordinary long robe, could still see greed and ambition in them.

He could imagine that once Fenghai County lost the war and the Holy Wave Races army rushed over, these nonhuman races in Fenghai County would probably immediately turn against the human race and take advantage of the chaos to plunder everything.

The Palace Masters decrees are correct. If the experts from the nonhuman races werent recruited, the danger would have been even greater.

A cold glint appeared in Xu Qings eyes. As he continued on his way, he also saw territories of the human sects. All of them had activated their sect-sealing array formations. The vast majority of their cultivators had already been recruited to the battlefield.

Other than that, Taboo magic treasures from large sects were also floating in the sky. They were all under the control of the Taboo magic treasure in the county capital, and were being used in unison.

Over the past few days, the sky kept changing colors, and storms surged randomly.

Xu Qing knew that this was formed by the activation of Taboo magic treasures.

At that moment, at noon, the sky rumbled again. Xu Qing lifted his head and saw streams of resplendent light flowing rapidly from the large net, emitting an astonishing pressure. They were divided into two parts which headed to the west and north.

Over there, the power formed by these Taboo magic treasures from the human forces would form a huge lethality.

The sky rumbled every once in a while, continuously reminding Xu Qing that the war was going on tragically.

Xu Qing retracted his gaze and continued forward.

Another two days passed.

He was only a nights journey away from the Morning Glow Province. When the solar wind appeared again, Xu Qing, who was speeding on the ground, saw a village.

There was something wrong with this village.

Everything inside was extremely illogical. It was completely different from the villages he knew.

For example, the trees in the village didnt grow on the ground but in the air.

There was also a group of birds floating in the sky. Although their wings were flapping, they couldnt move forward, as though they were restricted there.

Under the solar wind, they were gradually becoming broken.

On the ground, things were even more bizarre. The houses in the village were actually built upside down, and there were even many areas that intermittently appeared and disappeared, as if experiencing glitches.

At the entrance of the village, there was a bald mutt with a human face. It bared its teeth and let out a low growl at Xu Qing.

When Xu Qings gaze swept over, dusk dissipated and night fell.

In that instant, everything here changed again. As the sky turned dark, everything returned to normal and it became a very ordinary small mountain village.

As for the dog at the entrance of the village, it became a tall and silly guy. He bared his yellowish teeth at Xu Qing and kept waving.

Xu Qing was expressionless. He didnt have time to waste here. He moved around the village and was about to leave.

However, at that moment, the village behind him suddenly shook. All the buildings grew slender legs and stood up from the ground, chasing after Xu Qing.

Xu Qing stopped in his tracks. When he turned around, all the buildings in the village squatted down. The silly guy at the entrance of the village was still baring his yellow teeth and waving at Xu Qing.

The entire village gave off a sense of malice.

Xu Qing took a look and walked over.

The shadow hidden behind him in the night emitted excited emotions that continued to spread. There was also the sound of gulping, echoing in the quiet night.

Hungry... hungry...

Upon hearing the shadows gulping sounds, Xu Qing could sense the shadows fluctuating emotions. He couldnt help but recall that when he was in the Ancient Spirit Emperor Great World, the shadow had endured the disgust and eaten many evil souls.

It then had to vomit all of them out.

That display of loyalty made Xu Qing feel that it should be rewarded. Hence, he quickened his pace.

In an instant, he arrived before the village and stood in front of the silly guy who was giving him a bizarre smile.

Seeing that Xu Qing had walked over, the silly guy was about to speak when the shadow behind Xu Qing couldnt hold it in anymore and pounced over.

As the black shadow enveloped him, the silly guy disappeared.

As the sound of chewing rang out from the shadow and echoed through the entire village, all the buildings in the village trembled.

Many eyes grew out of these houses and trees. When they looked at Xu Qing, their pupils rapidly contracted.

Go and eat. Xu Qing stood on the spot expressionlessly and calmly spoke.
