out of time

Chapter 654

When Xu Qing's thoughts were active here, on another lake in this emptiness, the captain stood there in a black robe with his hands behind his back, looking up at the emptiness above.

There was a sigh in his expression, as if he was savoring and reminiscing, a sense of vicissitudes emerged spontaneously with his expression.

After a long time, a sigh full of complex emotions came out of his mouth, reverberating in all directions, setting off layers of lingering sounds, giving people a feeling of overflowing emotion.

"I am so familiar with the world here, the vegetation here, and everything here..."

the captain murmured.

However, before the lingering sound of his words was over, a cold voice came out indifferently from the mirror of the lake under his feet.

"Are you blind? There is no heaven, earth, or vegetation here. From the moment it was created by the master, this place is nothingness, from beginning to end."

The captain blinked, his expression was as usual, he didn't feel any embarrassment after being exposed, on the contrary, he was proud of himself, secretly thinking that you know a fart with your little wit, this is a spell.

Now that the spell was finished, he raised his head and spoke loudly.

"I have already thought about the great wish of the trial!"

The water surface under his feet fluctuated, and the old man in white robe stared at him, and opened his mouth coldly.

"State your ambition."

"My great wish is to save all living beings in the Jiyue Territory from the sea of ​​suffering, and lead them to resist the Red Moon. In the end, I will kill the Red Mother and devour her like the Juggernaut did back then. The world will know it and open up the world!"

The captain looked proud, and his voice echoed.

Inside the mirror of the lake, the expression of the white-robed old man did not change at all, as if he was indifferent to this great wish, but bursts of cold air radiated from his feet, spread across the entire lake, and seeped out from under the lake where the captain was, turning into an icy sound .

"How do you do it?"

"It's simple. I will become the master of the Moon Palace first. This is a crucial step in my series of plans."

"Besides, I have a second ambition. I want to change the name of this moon sacrifice domain to... Tianniu domain!"

The captain's eyes were persistent and his voice was passionate.

The old man in white robe didn't speak, and the cold air was thicker, slowly enveloping the captain from all directions.

Seeing this, the captain was overjoyed, he seemed to think that saying this was not exaggerated enough, not violent enough, and the cold air around him was spreading too slowly, so he spoke again.

"I haven't finished talking yet, and I have a third great wish. I will eventually destroy the remnant face of the sky, and become the new ancient emperor of this Wanggu Continent, unifying Wanggu!"

"At that time, I will punch the Holy Land and step on the brilliant sky. All races will worship me, and all the heavens will sink for me."

Speaking of this, the captain was extremely excited, raised his head and laughed.

And amidst his laughter, the surrounding cold air instantly surged, heading straight for him, submerging him in the blink of an eye, and finally... turning into an ice sculpture.

The captain in this ice sculpture still maintains a laughing posture, looking very rampant.

At this moment, it slowly sank, disappeared on the lake, and fell into the depths of this nothingness...

Apparently, his great wish was judged to be false by the Qi Ling of Niyue Temple, so he was punished by the seal.

On the other side, Xu Qing was in high spirits.

After thinking about it, he felt that there was nothing wrong with his thoughts on drug prohibition, except that he was not sure whether Qi Ling would notice his actions.

After all, this can be regarded as using the assessment to achieve one's private wish.

Therefore, in order to prevent accidents, Xu Qing felt that it should be on the safe side, first refine a drop curse pill, and use it as a cover.

In this case, even if he was discovered, he would have something to say.

Thinking of this, Xu Qing immediately waved his hands, and a large number of herbs flew towards him and kept separating in his hands.

Some extract liquid, some divide veins, some catalyze, and some graft together, each is different, and they are in harmony with each other.

As for the basic elixir, it was the curse-reducing elixir refined by Xu Qing outside.

These elixirs themselves can reduce the curse by about [-]%. Xu Qing made a lot of them in his free time a while ago.

At this moment, under his re-refining, although the added part made the elixir appear false and real, but on the mirror surface of the lake, the ingredients in these elixir mixed with illusory herbs were actually perfectly fused together.

The most important thing is that every herb in it is just right, making Xu Qing feel extremely comfortable when refining it.

Shout out whatever you need.

As long as you shout, it will appear immediately.

If the year is not enough, increase the number of years, and if the effect of the medicine is not satisfactory, replace it with other better herbs.

All his theoretical knowledge over the years has exploded in this short period of time, and all the herbs he has never seen in his life are here casually.

After such continuous confirmation, Xu Qing's vegetation skills have also improved by leaps and bounds.

Seen from a distance, Xu Qing, who was sitting cross-legged, was surrounded by countless medicinal herbs as he waved his hands, their shapes constantly changing.

Under the catalysis of these herbs, the ability of the pill to reduce the curse has gradually increased, and it is almost [-]%.

All this lifted Xu Qing's spirit.

He knew that the direction of his previous research was correct.

To reduce the curse through vegetation, the main principle here is actually to fight poison with poison.

On the one hand, it is the power of Xu Qingziyue contained in the elixir itself, which is the foundation and foundation, like the source.

On the other hand, the transformed plants and trees themselves grew and formed under the attack of the remnants of the gods, so they possessed special medicinal effects.

Most of these medicinal effects contain a certain degree of heterogeneity.

Combined with the way of grass and trees taught by Master Bai, it can be used to fight poison with poison, so as to suppress the curse of the red mother.

It's easy to say, but in fact it requires a lot of experimentation and deployment. If it is placed outside, it is extremely difficult to complete it with Xu Qing alone.

And the most difficult thing is the material. There are not so many natural treasures that he can try to find the correct formula one by one.

But here, everything is not a problem.

A strong light appeared in Xu Qing's eyes.

"Vegetation is indeed the key to unlocking the path of the gods."

Xu Qing murmured, he knew very well that this was actually Zhuzhao's cognition.

And just like that, time passed.

Seven days passed.

The seven days here are just an hour to the outside world.

It is difficult for others here to know the details, but Xu Qing has a sundial in his body, and through the pointer of the sundial, he can clearly identify the change of time.

"One hour in the outside world, seven days here, that is to say, one day in the outside world, nearly three months here?"

Xu Qing was a little surprised, this ability is too amazing, he instinctively felt that it should not be infinitely passing like the white-robed old man said, there is a high probability that there will be an end.

"It's unlikely to last forever here... I'm running out of time."

Thinking of this, Xu Qing quietly changed the alchemy formula. It seems that he has been refining alchemy, but every seven or eight herbs that are transformed will be mixed with a poisonous herb.

When the quantity reached a certain level, Xu Qing began to refine poison pills.

"Falling moon shattered star leaves, nine underworld spirit centipede roots, undead corpse hum blood..."

Xu Qing remained silent, suppressed the excitement in his heart, slowly molded the poisonous weed in his memory, and began to refine the poisonous pill.

These poisonous pills are all the pills that he has been studying the way of poison for so many years, but he has not been able to try because he has no materials. Now with the refining, Xu Qing feels very comfortable, and feels that this place is a holy place for Danxiu.

His plant and tree attainments have also been improved through refining again and again.

Not only those rare poisonous weeds were transformed by him, but also many rare treasures, which can be said to be everything that one expects to find.

He even tried to create a poisonous beast, but unfortunately the latter could not be formed here.

This made Xu Qing a little regretful.

But it was okay, at least there were enough plants and trees, so as time passed, Xu Qing refined more and more poison pills.

Bi Ling Du Su San, Jue Yin Rouge Pill, Three Shou Yu Pills, Qian Ye Revenant Call, Duan Xin Li Shen Liquid, Huo Fen Lei Teng San, Quinine Jue Ming Poison.

Half Moon, Qixixiao, Yang Huoyan, Jiuyou Bridge.

Xu Qing looked at the large and small colorful pills in front of him, and endless waves arose in his heart. He was very eager for these pills to be taken out here.

"With these poisons...my combat power will improve too much."

Xu Qing sighed in his heart. He knew it was unrealistic, so he lifted one, put it directly in his mouth, and tasted it slowly.

In the next moment, his body shook and he felt the explosion of poison.

And at this moment, in the mirror of the lake under his feet, the figure of the old man in white robe appeared. He looked at Xu Qing, his expression remained unchanged, and he spoke lightly.

"These are all fake, it's useless for you to swallow them."

Xu Qing opened his eyes, looked at the old man in white robe, and spoke hoarsely while letting his body remember the feeling brought by the poison of swallowing.

"I have encountered a bottleneck in refining the curse pill, and I need to break it in other ways, so even if it is false, I have to try it myself, feel the false changes, and find the possibility of breaking the bottleneck."

The old man in white robe took a deep look at Xu Qing, and then glanced at the colorful pills in front of Xu Qing.

Xu Qing took a deep breath, raised his hand to pick up another one, and continued to swallow and feel in the other party's eyes.

In this way, half a month has passed.

Xu Qing transformed almost [-]% of the poisons in his memory, and the poison pill was the same, and some of them were even created by him.

And in this continuous swallowing, the pupils of his eyes gradually became larger, eventually replacing the whites of the eyes, making the eyes as a whole look pitch black.

As for the old man in white robe, he appeared many times in the following days, staring at Xu Qing.

He didn't understand at first, he didn't know what Xu Qing was doing, it was all fake here, and eating so many fake pills was meaningless to him.

Until...he noticed Xu Qing's eyes, at this moment, the old man in white robe realized something.

"The elixirs and plants are false, but the feeling of the body is real. This son... is remembering the feeling after swallowing these elixirs of plants and trees!"

"He is using his memory to invisibly plunder the source power here!"

The white-robed old man's expression was no longer indifferent, but for the first time there were some emotional fluctuations, including shock and anger.

"After one hour, the trial will end. If you fail to complete it by then, you will be punished by sealing!"

A black light flashed in Xu Qing's eyes, and he was now only a small step away from the final completion.

So after nodding slightly, he closed his eyes, swung his hands together, and immediately the poisonous weeds reappeared.

The number is so large that it directly reaches thousands of plants.

After the illusion at this moment, Xu Qing had no time to refine, he opened his mouth suddenly, and swallowed these medicinal herbs suddenly, some of them were directly blasted into mist by him with a fist, covering the whole body.

While the sound of barking reverberated, Xu Qing, who was shrouded in mist, let out a low growl, and the power of drug prohibition erupted in an instant.

This scene moved the white-robed old man. According to his judgment, the tester in front of him had undergone unstable changes, so with a wave of his hand, the cold air radiated from his feet, penetrated into the lake, and appeared on Xu Qing's body. around.

The cold air is getting stronger and stronger, and it contains the power to freeze everything, spreading towards Xu Qing from all directions.

Wherever they passed, there was a crackling sound from the lakes on the ground, all of which were frozen, and the cold air was about to envelop Xu Qing.

At this moment, the poisonous mist outside Xu Qing's body suddenly churned and rolled back.

It was as if Xu Qing in the mist had become a black hole vortex, sucking all the poisonous mist in in the blink of an eye.

And with the disappearance of the poisonous mist, Xu Qing's figure was clearly revealed, and at this moment, his eyes suddenly opened!

The dark eyes are like an abyss, but anyone who looks at them seems to be staring at the abyss, or being stared at by the abyss.

Its eyes are even more profound, as if hiding the eternal night, which is enough to cause huge fluctuations in the minds of those watching.

The most astonishing thing is that this gaze... has a different quality!

This heterogeneity is special, and it can instantly contaminate the body and soul of those who look at it with drugs.

It is the purpose of drug prohibition!

The body of the old man in white robe shook, and the mirror surface of the lake where he was located also turned black at this moment, pouring into it like ink.

"Bold!"

The old man in white robe let out a low growl, the lake was churning, the mirror was shining, and the cold air was about to erupt.

At this moment, Xu Qing withdrew his gaze, ignored the cold air coming from all around, and looked down at his raised right hand.

There, there is a pill.

Under his gaze, as his drug control power blasted in, the inner quality of the elixir changed rapidly, and the efficacy of the curse-reducing medicine inside it also rose rapidly.

Xu Qing's drug prohibition contained not only the curse of the gods, but also all the poisons he had swallowed before. At this moment, all of them gathered in his eyes and merged into the curse-falling pill.

These poisons are illusory, blended with the elixir, affecting, balancing and exerting internally.

And the efficacy of this Curse Reduction Pill also exploded at this moment, from close to [-]% to a direct reduction of [-]%, and it is still going on.

In the end, a piece of purple cloud spread out from it. When the surrounding area was hazy, Xu Qing raised his head, and at the moment when the surrounding cold air came to seal, he said the last sentence.

"This pill, finally completed, it can reduce the curse...[-]%!"

At the same time as the words came out, cold air covered Xu Qing's whole body. Under some irresistible law, his body directly turned into an ice sculpture, motionless.

Only the elixir fell from his hand and floated on the ice of the lake. While shining purple, it also gave people a sense of illusion.

After a while, the elixir melted into the ice layer and appeared in the hands of the white-robed old man.

The old man in white robe looked at the pill in front of him, his expression changed again, first he was shocked, then puzzled, then bewildered, and finally hesitant.

In his lifetime of Qi Ling, he has never seen such a pill.

After a long time, he suddenly breathed on the pill.

In this breath, the pill turned from illusion to reality.

Then he raised his hand, and suddenly an ice sculpture appeared, melting in front of him, revealing a middle-aged man inside.

The burly man burst out with a return to emptiness. After waking up, he was stunned for a moment. During the struggle, he did not choose to escape, but respectfully clasped his fists at the white-robed old man.

"I've seen adults."

"Eat it." The old man in white robe had no expression on his face, and after speaking indifferently, he waved out the pill in his hand and landed it in front of the big man.

The big man hesitated, but he still chose to obey. He took the elixir and looked at it, his expression moved slightly, and he took it in one bite, closing his eyes to appreciate it.

A moment later, his body suddenly shook violently, trembling violently, opened his eyes suddenly, and spurted out a big mouthful of red blood with a wow.

And in that piece of blood, there is a strong curse and rotten atmosphere, gathered together in mid-air, vaguely transformed into the shadow of the red moon, and there is still the power of curse in it, which is about to explode.

But the old man in white robe snorted coldly, and suddenly the nothingness roared, descending and suppressing.

In an instant, the piece of blood turned into ice and fell on the lake, sealing all the fluctuations in it.

After doing this, the old man in white robe looked at the big man, his eyes showed strange light, and at the same time, his expression changed again, showing shock.

And the big man was just as shocked, he felt his body, and lost his voice in shock.

"My curse...has been cut in half forever!!"

"My lord, what kind of Dan is this!"

The white-robed old man didn't answer the big man's question. He flicked his sleeves, and suddenly the cold came again. The big man's body instantly turned into an ice sculpture again and sank into the lake.

After finishing all this, the old man in white robe stood there, in a daze for a moment, before his body sank into the lake.

When it appeared, it suddenly arrived at the place where Xu Qing's ice sculpture was.

Staring at the ice sculpture in front of him, the white-robed old man was silent again. After a while, he raised his hand and touched Xu Qing's forehead.

Under this point, the ice sculpture melted rapidly, turned into mist, and scattered in all directions. Xu Qing's body inside was shaken, and his consciousness was awakened.

"I have seen seniors."

Xu Qing didn't have too many surprises. No matter how the other party understood his behavior during this period, it didn't matter. The important thing was that he told the other party with his actions that all his previous actions were actually the link of refining the curse pill.

That last glance, which made the pill appear almost sublimated, was enough to explain everything.

The old man in white robe stared at Xu Qing with a strange look on his face. After a long time, a deep voice echoed in the nothingness.

"Throughout the ages, a total of 79 people have passed this first test, but in this era, there are not many, only three."

"You are number four now."

"But the people before you, although they all made great wishes and gave the qualifications to complete them, and they did complete them afterwards, but none of them are the masters of the Niyue Palace, they are all inferior contracts."

"Because you have passed this test, you will not be able to become the master of the Moon Palace...you will know the reason as soon as you walk in."

"You only have half a year. If you can't finish it within half a year, you can only sign a second-class contract."

The white-robed old man looked at Xu Qing, raised his finger to the lake, and suddenly the lake churned, and a huge stone gate full of antiquity rose rumbled from the inside.

This stone gate is thousands of feet high, full of vicissitudes, with traces of the passage of time, as if it came from ancient times and appeared here.

It doesn't need to be pushed, because there is a gap in the middle that people can walk in.

Through the gap, Xu Qing vaguely saw that there seemed to be a palace inside.

Xu Qing was a little hesitant. The words of the old man in white robe reminded him of the captain, so he clasped his fists at the old man.

"Senior, did the tester who came with this junior also pass?"

"His ambitions are too big, and he has reaped the consequences."

The old man in white robe opened his mouth lightly, raised his foot and stomped on the ground, and the ripples on the water surface suddenly echoed, revealing dozens of ice sculptures in the depths.

Xu Qing looked down and found that there was another one inside, it was the elder brother.

He maintained a posture of laughing, and the sense of arrogance was extremely obvious.

Xu Qing frowned, which was a little different from what he expected, so he pondered in his heart, thinking of the words of the captain before the trial.

Combining with the knowledge of the elder brother, Xu Qing thinks that this incident is likely to be the captain's intention, and he was frozen on purpose.

"If you can finally pass and become the master of the Moon Palace, you will have the authority to pardon all the sealers here."

"Now, go in."

The old man in white robe gave Xu Qing a meaningful look, and his body slowly sank into the lake without a trace.

Soon, only Xu Qing and this huge stone gate were left here.

Standing in front of the stone gate, Xu Qing took a deep breath, no longer hesitated, and stepped forward, walking into the canyon-like gap in the stone gate.

Farther.

Towards the palace inside, getting closer and closer.

Until a piece of light was reflected in Xu Qing's eyes, filling his world.

At the same time, there was an uproar in Niyue Hall.

A few hours ago, the shining of the highest temple in Niyue Hall had already attracted the attention of many monks, and even two deputy hall masters had arrived.

But now several hours have passed, and as things have spread out, more and more monks have returned to Niyue Hall to witness this scene.

The voice of discussion also came out frequently.

Looking around, the sky is full of god statues, and some of them are followers of Master Danjiu. Although they don't know that it is the master who makes them fanatical, this does not affect them at this time, and continue to promote Danjiu. Nine benevolent names.

The representative among them is Xu Qing's neighbor. The statue of this man is a big man with breasts leaking breasts, leading hundreds of thousands of Danjiu's hardcore followers, scattered among the crowd, praising Danjiu.

And just when the Niyue Hall was so lively, suddenly, the highest hall in the sky vibrated loudly and shone with a thousand zhang of light, which permeated all directions.

It has a more sacred meaning, rising inside.

This scene immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Success?"

"Could it be... that the Palace Lord will appear in Niyue Palace!!"

"too suddenly……"

The sound of uproar erupted in the mouths of everyone in the Niyue Palace, and at the same time, the meaning of anticipation was constantly rising here.

Looking around, the statues all over the sky are staring at the gate of the highest temple, waiting for the opening there.

It's just that time passed, a stick of incense passed by, the light of the highest peak was still shining, but the door was still closed, and no one came out.

This scene made many Elders of Niyue Hall look gloomy.

"Could it be that the legend about Niyue Temple is true..."
