Outside Of Time

Chapter 1521: The Emperor’s Tomb, Open! (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The bell from the East Demon Feather Dao Altar rang this morning. Its sound was vast and mighty, sweeping through the entire East Demon Feather like a storm.

In the East Demon Feather, whether it was the various families, rogue cultivators, or the Ruler Mountains, all the cultivators heard the bell chime, and looked at the East Demon Feather Dao Altar.

They knew that… the day of the opening of the Great Emperor Nether Flame’s seclusion place had arrived.

Great Emperor Nether Flame was a glorious and terrifying name in the Demon Feather Holy Land.

He was not orthodox.

In his early years, he mysteriously disappeared. When he returned several years later, he was already a Great Emperor.

At his peak, although he presided over the East Demon Feather, his terrifying power had already unified both East and West Demon Feather.

Even the other black-level holy lands had to lower their heads to him.

This Great Emperor Nether Flame had already reached the peak of the Great Emperor realm and was only half a step away from the Summer Immortal.

Even the current Demon Feather Great Emperor had to bow before him; despite inheriting the name of Demon Feather, he could only be a puppet.

That period of time was when the Demon Feather Holy Land was at its peak. It could be said to be the number one black-level holy land.

Logically speaking, it was impossible for a Great Emperor of such status to die so easily. In fact, it wasn’t difficult for him to extend his lifespan.

However, the bizarre thing was that the peak period of this Great Emperor Nether Flame was extremely short. After he failed to break through to the Summer Immortal Realm, it was only a few thousand years before he seemed to have completed his entire life.

No one knew the reason.

Most of them guessed that it might have something to do with the way he obtained the cultivation base of the Great Emperor.

Hence, there was this seclusion place by Great Emperor Nether Flame a thousand years ago.

A thousand years had passed since then, and it was unknown if he was dead or alive.

Because of the Great Emperor’s closed-door cultivation, the situation of the Demon Feather Holy Land gradually changed.

Only then did the current Demon Feather Great Emperor, who had always been a puppet, have a chance to rise.

Today, for the cultivators of the Demon Feather Holy Land, perhaps everything would have an ending.

Hence, there were countless people paying attention.

Even the war against the human race was no longer important.

The Demon Feather Army had retreated and were prioritizing defense. At the same time, the Demon Feather Holy Land also activated the holy land’s array formation to prevent any accidents.

The focus of everything was on the East Demon Feather Dao Altar.

This was because that was the place where Great Emperor Nether Flame was in seclusion.

As the bell rang, one figure after another teleported away. One could see all colors of lights approaching from the west.

At the same time, the bell chime also reached the Immortal Arts Hall.

It penetrated even the secret chamber that was isolated from the outside world, landing in Xu Qing and Erniu’s minds.

Xu Qing opened his eyes and ended his attempt at the Five Dogs Sheltering Immortal.

Erniu heaved a sigh of relief.

“You’re finally awake. If you still didn’t wake up, I was thinking of carrying you out.”

During these few days, Xu Qing’s attempt at the Five Dogs Sheltering Immortal caused him to produce antibodies that had a deeper memory of this immortal art. During this time, there were a few times when there were dangers. Fortunately, Xu Qing had Erniu protecting him, so he successfully passed them.

‘It’s a pity I don’t have enough time.’

Xu Qing felt some regret. If it was another half a month, he was confident that he could completely simulate that immortal art. Right now, he could only simulate half of it.

However, he also knew that compared to the immortal art, the place of Great Emperor Nether Flame’s seclusion was the main target of his and the captain’s trip.

‘I hope I can obtain an opportunity to break through there!’

Xu Qing took a deep breath and stood up, looking at Erniu.

“Eldest Senior Brother, let’s go?”

A look of anticipation appeared in Erniu’s eyes. He licked his lips, rubbed his hands, and chuckled.

“Before we leave, I’ll give you a treasure.”

As he spoke, Erniu raised his hand and took out an egg filled with cracks from his storage bag, handing it to Xu Qing.

As soon as the egg appeared, a mysterious intent circulated in it, causing the surrounding void to distort. One could see that it was extraordinary.

Xu Qing’s gaze froze. He recognized it at a glance.

“Why is it with you?”

This was none other than the golden rat’s egg. Back then, after the two of them obtained the eggs, they felt that Wu Jianwu was very good at incubating, so they handed the eggs to him.

On their trip to the outer seas with Jade Flowing Dust, they encountered the terrifying old man who claimed that he was from the fifth star ring, and saw an extremely powerful golden rat with him.

At that time, he and Erniu realized the value of the golden rat.

“Previously, after we returned to the human race’s imperial city, you kept an eye on Feng Lintao every day. As for me, I went to look for Wu Jianwu.”

Erniu was proud.

“This golden rat is such a treasure. I was worried that once they are hatched by Wu Jianwu, the first thing they will see is that kid and they’ll become his pets.” “So I took them back from him and incubated them myself.”

“After all my hard work during this time, they are about to break out of their shells.”

Erniu had a smug expression.

“I don’t know how long we will be in the Nether Flame’s seclusion place. Take that one of yours. I estimate that it will break out of its shell in a few days.”

“Although I don’t know the specific abilities of this golden rat, it is bound to be good.”

When Xu Qing heard this, he carefully kept the egg in his hand.

After that, the two of them looked at each other and saw the persistence and anticipation in each other’s expressions.

“Little Qing, I have an additional goal in this trip to the Nether Flame’s seclusion place. It’s related to my previous life…”

“But I’m not so sure yet. Once I am, you’ll have to help me.”

Erniu spoke solemnly.

Xu Qing nodded without asking for details.

Erniu grinned and patted Xu Qing’s shoulder. They stepped forward at the same time and disappeared from the secret chamber.

When they reappeared, Erniu was outside the Immortal Arts Hall.

Xu Qing was in the air some distance away from the Immortal Arts Hall. After looking in the direction of the Immortal Arts Hall, Xu Qing headed straight for the East Demon Feather Dao Altar..
