Outside Of Time Chapter 1293 Moon Worshiping Statues

Chapter 1293 Moon Worshiping Statues

As the two of them rushed over, the spiderweb grew larger in their eyes. The withered trees on it also became clearer.
"Take it slow, Junior Brother. These human-faced trees were the guards of the ancestor emperor back then. They were transformed by the invasion of divine aura and are now all asleep. Each one possesses formidable combat power."
"What's especially astonishing is that once they wake up, they will emit sounds that can destroy the soul. Moreover, there will be great horrors descending from their voices."
The captain hurriedly spoke and came to Xu Qing's side, moving through the spiderwebs with him.
Xu Qing nodded. Previously, he could sense the strangeness of these human-faced trees when he looked at them from afar. Now that he was closer, he could see them even more meticulously.
Most of those faces were middle-aged. There were no women among them and they were all men.
Their appearances were similar to humans but their skin color was different. Moreover, behind their ears, there were fine lines that looked like gills.
Other than that, although their eyes were closed, their expressions were distorted. The anomalous substances growing on their bodies were mixed with dense resentment. Coupled with their expressions, they revealed intense unwillingness.
"Those below the gods are all ants. They resisted when they were alive but it's a pity…"
The captain sighed and flew through the gaps between the human-faced trees, not touching any of them.
Xu Qing was the same. After about fifteen minutes, under the concealment of the wordless book, the two of them seemed to have lost all sense of existence and successfully passed through this terrifying human-faced forest.
They flew past layers of spiderwebs like two mosquitoes and gradually arrived at the core of this spiderweb area.
The huge star was reflected in their eyes.
From outside the star, it was completely gray and filled with cracks. It was filled with the aura of death, and huge vortices were slowly moving inside.
That was a storm.
Other than that, there were also 16 huge deep pits on the surface of the star.
Every one of them was a shocking sight.
The instant he saw this deep pit, Xu Qing sensed something and thought of the spider god in the shrine he had seen in the core of the Jiuli.
That god had 16 legs that matched the 16 deep pits.
Hence, an image appeared in Xu Qing's mind: The terrifying and huge spider god rested on this huge gray star. Its 16 legs sank into the ground, forming 16 deep pits.
"According to my judgment back then, this is the resting place of the owner of this Divine Realm. Unfortunately, as the owner of the Divine Realm left and never returned, this Divine Realm gradually showed signs of decline."
The captain stared at the star and spoke in a low voice.
"This place is much less dangerous."
"However, this place is the Divine Realm after all and can be considered the core. Hence, there are still many dangers."
"The more this is the case, the greater the benefits!"
Madness appeared in the captain's eyes. He didn't forget to remind Xu Qing.
"The Heavenly Dao that is suitable for your Emperor Sword secret repository is inside!"
"Junior Brother, let's go!"
As he spoke, the captain flew over first.
Determination appeared in Xu Qing's eyes. Since he had decided, he didn't hesitate anymore and followed the captain into this vast star.
In the star, the ground was originally gray and the sky was black. However, due to the envelopment of the storm, most of it was hazy.
As for the storm that was stirred up all year round, it swept in all directions. The whistling sounds were also deafening.
Coming here was like coming to a dangerous place.
Before this, the greatest storm Xu Qing had seen was in the Green Sand Desert in the Moon Offering Region. Now that he had stepped onto the star and entered the storm here, the contrast between them was especially obvious.
It surpassed the Green Sand Desert!
The sandstorm seemed to be the only thing here. It swept through the sky and even landed on their bodies. Xu Qing and the captain felt that it was difficult for them to move an inch.
This wasn't an ordinary storm.
This was the remnant of a divine technique that contained the aura of a god, with an extremely high level status, and even imperial qi.
One could imagine that this place must have experienced an earth-shattering battle in the past.
Fortunately, Xu Qing himself possessed the god form. Hence, after he displayed the divine source, he could move forward in the sandstorm. Also, it was clearly not the captain's first time here. With his mysterious methods, he could barely move here.
Moreover, it seemed like he knew where to go.
Just like that, the two of them walked forward in the sandstorm.
Time flowed by and very soon, seven days passed. The storm became stronger and stronger. Moreover, as they got closer to their destination, many storms here fused together.
Even Xu Qing and the captain felt that it was strenuous.
What made Xu Qing's heart palpitate even more was that every time a storm arrived, there would be a strange heartbeat hidden. It was as though… something was hiding in the core of the storm.
Xu Qing looked at the captain.
The captain shook his head and didn't speak.
After the fifth great storm, when the core vortex of the sixth storm was about to envelop them, the captain brought Xu Qing to a crack in the ground.
The moment he entered, Xu Qing wasn't too surprised to discover that there was another cave hidden here.
It was unknown how long this cave had been dug out for. It was very ingenious. By hiding inside, one could avoid the storm.
After entering the cave, the captain heaved a long sigh of relief and looked around with emotion.
"There aren't many changes here. Junior Brother, let's rest here for three days. According to my calculations, in three days, it will be a small cycle of the storm outside."
"At that time, the storm will be much weaker."
"As for your previous question, I don't have an answer. In one of my lives, I was swept into the core vortex of the storm. Although I didn't die, I misplaced my memories after coming out. Even now, I can't recall them."
The captain's words caused Xu Qing's heart to skip a beat. The more he understood the captain, the more he could sense the terror of the existence in the core of the storm through his words.
Hence, he fell silent for a moment. His gaze swept across the surroundings before looking out of the cave and asking.
"Eldest Senior Brother, how many times have you been here?"
"This is the third time!" The captain appeared nonchalant, seemingly not caring about the previous explanation. At that moment, he stretched lazily and chuckled, sitting down against a rocky wall.
He leaned there and lifted three fingers at Xu Qing.
With a meaningful glance, Xu Qing looked at the captain. He understood well that whatever kept the captain persisting after two failures must be of significant importance. It reminded him of the captain's mention of a 'super big event.'
"What's the purpose of this trip?"
Xu Qing spoke in a low voice.
The captain blinked and looked around. In the end, he shook his head.
"Junior Brother, I really can't say. Wait a little longer… I can only tell you one thing now. Compared to this, the gains from Crimson Goddess are nothing."
"The reason why I've been thinking about this place is because half of my previous preparations were for this place."
"Originally, I thought that I would need another three to five lifetimes before I could make any progress. However, Junior Brother, your appearance changed the plan."
The captain slapped his thigh with an excited expression.
Xu Qing fell silent and fell into deep thought.
He was very distinct that the captain wasn't a person to deliberately mystify things. Unless there was really some reason why he couldn't say it, with the captain's personality that liked to show off and like to see him shocked, he would probably have said everything to admire his shock.
'To make the captain so hesitant, it must be related to the three gods…'
ƈοm Xu Qing fell silent. Coupled with the fact that the three gods had used the name of the Grand Hunt many times to explore this place and the sealing of the spider god, a bold guess rose in Xu Qing's mind.
'Fourth god?'
Xu Qing's eyes narrowed and he didn't speak anymore. He closed his eyes and regulated his cultivation, maintaining his peak state.
The entire cave slowly fell silent at this moment. Only the howling of the storm outside was left. It was like a god was roaring angrily to vent Their anger, sweeping across the ground and affecting the sky.
There were also some whimpering sounds that seemed to be crying, struggling, sometimes heart-rending, and sometimes bizarre.
These sounds continued to ring out, reminding Xu Qing of how terrifying this place was.
Three days passed very quickly.
The captain's understanding of this place was very accurate this time. The wind outside had indeed died down.
After the third day passed, there was a moment when the storm almost completely disappeared and couldn't be heard at all.
"It's time!"
The captain's eyes lit up and he instantly rushed out. Xu Qing followed behind. The moment he left the cave and arrived outside, the black sky became distinct for the first time. It was the same for the gray land.
The storm that had permeated this place earlier was gone.
"There's only two hours!"
The captain let out a profound shout and unleashed his speed to the extreme, transforming into a rainbow.
Xu Qing followed behind and his speed erupted.
The two of them tore through the air and charged forward with all their might while the storm dissipated.
However, two hours passed very soon, and the wind slowly appeared again.
But when the howling sound gradually grew stronger, a outlandish mountain and a group of statues appeared in front of the two of them.
That mountain was vast and towered into the clouds.
In the center was a circular hole. The wind and sand moved past the surroundings and the hole, forming an extremely sharp whimpering sound.
It fused into the wind and spread in all directions, shaking one's soul.
At the same time, the feeling of ancientness and vicissitudes also permeated Xu Qing's heart through his gaze.
At the foot of the mountain, there were ancient statues surrounding it.
They had three heads and six arms and looked at the sky. Each of them held a large blade and emitted a terrifying pressure.
What attracted Xu Qing's attention even more was that there was a half-moon mark on the forehead of each gigantic statue.
In fact, the posture of the statue at the edge vaguely looked like it was kneeling toward the sky.
When Xu Qing's gaze landed on the statues, the captain's voice rang out from behind him through the sandstorm.
"This is the manifestation of the 36 princes of the Ancestral Emperor."
"When they were alive, they worshiped the moon, not Moon Flame or Red Moon, but the oldest moon. It's intangible, the yin within the yin and yang."
"Some races like to call it the Ancestral Moon."
"Also, this mountain is our destination, the ancestral emperor's tomb!"
As he spoke, the captain headed straight for the mountain. However, after taking a few steps, he sensed that Xu Qing wasn't following. Hence, he turned his head and looked at Xu Qing.
Xu Qing didn't move. At that moment, he was standing beside a statue that worshiped the moon. He stared at the statue and an intense glint appeared in his eyes.
The mosasaur in his body was emitting fluctuations, as though it was reminding Xu Qing. The one with the greatest fluctuations was his third divine repository.
The third divine repository was related to the moon. At this moment, an intense longing rose!
Xu Qing instantly realized that this statue was very suitable to be the Heavenly Dao of the third divine repository.
