Outside Of Time

During this soul refinement, Xu Qing was also constantly adapting to the toxicity of the Poison Restriction Pill, allowing him to have more time to study it. He was even thinking of a way to fuse the little black bugs with this poison pill.

This was a new field which he would need to experiment a lot before he could gain something.

Just like that, time slowly passed.

The Seven Blood Eyes’ celebratory feast continued. Every day, outsiders would arrive, causing all the ports to be lively and bustling. However, the mood of the Seven Blood Eyes’ disciples became increasingly heavy.

This was because although the challenges from the seven sects were delayed by Xu Qing’s matter for a few days, they quickly resumed again.

It was as though the Seven Sects Alliance wanted to drag this challenge for the whole of the three months of the celebratory period. As for the Soaring Cloud Sword Sect’s Saintly Star, although he only challenged once and didn’t continue to challenge, he lived on the First Peak.

The canopy formed by the Rainbow Wind Song Lantern outside his residence shook the heavens and the earth. The aura that suppressed the First Peak’s disciples caused all the nonhuman races and allies who had arrived to fall silent.

The attitude of the Seven Sects Alliance was obvious.

This was no longer a simple statement but a deep warning.

They were warning the Seven Blood Eyes not to have any thoughts of independence. It was also rumored that after this celebration banquet, the seven peak lords of the Seven Blood Eyes would be changed by the Seven Sects Alliance.

In an instant, the Seven Blood Eyes, which had clearly won against the Sea Corpse Race and should have been enjoying a peak period, was suppressed. The Seven Blood Eyes’ ancestor didn’t respond.

Xu Qing also felt this oppressive atmosphere in the sect but he felt that this matter wouldn’t end so simply. Thinking of what the captain had said about what he had seen on the Sixth Peak, Xu Qing had a feeling that the sect seemed to be waiting for something.

“No matter what, this is a game between the higher-ups.” Xu Qing shook his head and didn’t bother with it, continuing to immerse himself in his cultivation. The captain had also returned and informed Xu Qing before busying himself with something.

Xu Qing continued to refine the prisoners’ souls during these few days. Although his magic apertures were still not opened, his understanding of the Poison Restriction Pill became more thorough. Not only was his body more used to it, but he also confirmed the idea of refining it.

In addition, he was also trying to fuse the Poison Restriction Pill and the little black bugs. However, this process consumed a lot of the little black bugs. Most of the time, even if a group of them fused into it, they wouldn’t be able to succeed.

All of them died when they got close.

However, Xu Qing wasn’t discouraged. Right now, in the prison, he took out all the bottles that contained the little black bugs.

After Xu Qing’s continuous replenishment, there were eight bottles of little black bugs.

There were countless black bugs in each of them. Previously, he had tried to fuse a bottle of small black bugs into the poison pill and all of them died. At this moment, he took out a second bottle and opened it.

He performed a series of hand seals and pointed. Immediately, a black fog rose from the small bottle. It was extremely dense and surrounded Xu Qing.

If an outsider saw this scene, they would definitely be shocked.

This was because these little black bugs were so threatening that even Golden Core cultivators would be somewhat wary of them.

However, Xu Qing was clearly still not satisfied with their might. He opened the wish box and pointed. Immediately, the black fog in the surroundings headed straight for the wish box.

However, the moment they got close, these black fog fell down one after another. All the little black bugs instantly rotted and died.

Xu Qing frowned and continued to try. Very soon, the third bottle, the fourth bottle, the fifth bottle…

Countless little black bugs died again and again. Even when there was only one bottle left, not a single one survived. All of them died.

Xu Qing sighed inwardly. He didn’t dare to continue with the last bottle. He wanted to use it as a seed to nurture more little black bugs.

Hence, he arranged for the Homicide Department to send Night Doves, who were imprisoned in the other prisons, over as a supplement to his little black bugs’ cultivation.
