Outside Of Time

Chapter 1385: Karma Has Been Severed

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The sky was calm.

The human world was peaceful.

The wind that blew a few breaths ago dissipated at this instant.

It was as though it had never appeared. Only the resplendent vortexes formed by the nebula in the sky remained, silently and continuously rotating, replacing the sky.

They would continue for a period of time and become traces of that world-shaking battle.

The holy land left.

The three gods from the Underworld Origin Corpse Race, the Northern Fate Royal Family, and the Empyrean Crimson Land outside the Ancient Sovereign Planet also knew that the matter of the Empress becoming a god couldn’t be stopped.

Hence, They chose to retreat while looking at the figure of the Great Emperor in the sky with fear and complexity.

They had other thoughts too, but whether these thoughts could become reality depended on whether They got such an opportunity.

As for the Sun, Moon, and Star, They had completed Their end of the deal. At this moment, as They stared at the sky and the human Great Emperor, Their expressions revealed a rare hint of nostalgia and turmoil.

What They were nostalgic for might not be the Great Emperor before Them, and what caused their turmoil might not be the present Wanggu.

Perhaps it was the Northern Emperor or the Northern Immortal Realm.

They recalled that person.

The surroundings were silent.

Regardless of whether it was the Empress, the gods, the ministers, the commoners in the imperial city, or the divine senses hidden in the void, at this moment, they all looked at the figure in the air who had slashed out the last strike, stunning everyone.

Silently, under the gazes of everyone, the Great Emperor slowly turned around.

His ancient eyes looked at the human race and the human world.

He let out a soft sigh.

The body formed by fortune gradually dissipated until it became hazy. Only the outline was left, revealing Xu Qing’s body inside.

This body fell to the ground and finally lay on the human war drum.

During the process, a blurry soul came out of Xu Qing’s body and floated in the air.

That was the soul of the Great Emperor.

It was dissipating irreversibly.

He had guarded the human world for tens of thousands of years and fought countless battles in his life, killing many gods. Today… he was tired.

The fatigue from his soul spread at this moment.

His life force had actually been extinct many years ago, leaving only his clone to reach this day.

His fatigue had long appeared in the tens of thousands of years and it had accumulated until now.

He could have had an endless lifespan, he could have had the highest glory, and he wouldn’t have been so tired.

He only needed to choose himself at the node in the past between him and the race.

However, he chose the race.

Sometimes, a choice at a critical moment in life would be a path of no return. No matter what was right or wrong, there was no turning back.

Did he regret it…

The Great Emperor smiled. It had been a very, very long time since he last smiled.

“No regrets.”

The Great Emperor muttered inwardly.

He had walked through the mountains and rivers of the human world for tens of thousands of years, stepping on the world and causing waves in ancient and modern times. In this life, he used his sword to kill gods and guarded his race.

Such a life was naturally much better than hiding beyond heaven and struggling at death’s door.

With this thought in mind, the Great Emperor’s gaze swept through the human world, looking at the imperial capital, the great regions, the mountains and rivers. In the end, he only looked at two people.

One of them was Xu Qing. The person he had chosen to carry the sword would carry his sword and continue walking.

He wouldn’t restrict the other party’s path. How he walked was his freedom. As for the sword… what it slashed and how it slashed was also his freedom.

‘The karma on this kid is too great… His past and future might be even more exhausting than mine.’

The second person was the Empress.

This woman who cried under the devouring power of the Mystic War, and who had given all her talents for the human race, stirred a ripple in his heart at that time.

He thought of his daughter who had been devoured by a god.

Hence, he saved the Empress.

‘Not all human emperors are good… but at least right now before I leave, she is good.’

Looking at the Empress whose body was burning intensely with divine fire, the Great Emperor’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

He wanted to see what kind of power a cultivator who had crossed half a step to the peak of the Ruler Realm and cultivated the god’s path would obtain with the support of the fortune of the entire race.

Was it the peak of the flawlessness stage, or… would she reach the Divine Platform in one step!

As for the ancestral teachings from the holy land that said humans couldn’t become gods, he adhered to it.

Hence, in this life, he didn’t choose to become a god.

However, what should the race do after he left?

After he left, who would continue to protect the human race…

Between the ancestral teachings and the living people of his race, the Great Emperor didn’t want to think about it.

He only wanted to spend his last moments taking another look at this human world he had been protecting.

At the same time, he was fishing.

Hence, at the next instant, when his soul blurred and the Empress’ expression changed drastically, the instant Xu Qing slowly opened his eyes…

Behind the Great Emperor, a figure appeared from the void like a bolt of lightning and slapped fiercely at the Great Emperor’s soul.

“Sword Holder, 1’11 send you off on your last journey!”

The person who appeared was none other than Jade Flowing Dust!

He didn’t leave but remained hidden, searching for an opportunity. Now that He had finally found it, His words turned from watching the final journey into sending off!

However, just as everyone’s expressions changed drastically and Jade Flowing

Dust’s palm was about to land,

the Great Emperor raised his hand and swung it behind him.

With this swing, endless power surged into the sky from his body. The nebula vortex spinning in the sky suddenly sped up, turning from calm to violent in an instant.

The rumbling sound was deafening.

It was as though everything before was fake and they were all waiting for the fish to appear!

Another world-shaking storm erupted at this instant, forming a destructive force that swept toward Jade Flowing Dust with an overwhelming force.

Jade Flowing Dust’s body trembled and He spat out large mouthfuls of golden blood uncontrollably.

The sword on his chest shot out endless sword qi that swept through Jade Flowing Dust’s body. Wherever it passed, flesh and blood would be annihilated. A heart-rending sound from Jade Flowing Dust spread through the world.

“You actually still have such a trick up your sleeve. You guys… If you don’t attack now, when are you going to do it!!”

Jade Flowing Dust’s expression distorted and His voice caused the sky to collapse. The moment it rang out, He rushed toward the Sword Holding Great Emperor again.

Almost at the instant Jade Flowing Dust spoke, the strong wind in the sky rose again. This wind was cold and wherever it passed, the world would turn white. Snow filled the air and everything was sealed.

Regardless of whether it was the clouds, mountains, rivers, or all things, even the laws and rules were frozen in the wind.

This was because this was the flawless wind, the wind of the gods.

This was a divine authority that came from another flawlessness god of the Northern Fate Royal Family.

In the wind, a god walked over.

This god’s figure couldn’t be seen clearly, and He didn’t seem to have a fixed form. He fused into the wind and transformed into a palm formed by the wind, grabbing at the Great Emperor.

The Great Emperor was pincer attacked by Jade Flowing Dust and god of the cold wind.

These two terrifying gods attacked at the same time.

In all directions, as the void shattered, seven to eight gods also tore through the air. They had been hiding in the surroundings all this time for… this moment.

What They wanted was the intrinsic light emitted by the last Quasi-Immortal in the Wanggu before he died.

This scene was seen by the human race.

The Empress’ body trembled. She wanted to attack but she couldn’t move now. The moment the divine fire was about to form, it was also her most vulnerable moment.

As for the others, they didn’t have the qualifications to participate in this battle.

Xu Qing’s eyes instantly turned bloodshot. After he woke up, he sensed that something different had happened to his body. It was the same for his soul.

The feeling of completeness he had felt when he beat the drum earlier appeared again and it was even more intense.

It was as though regardless of whether it was outside or inside, regardless of whether it was obvious or hidden, all the wounds were meticulously repaired by the Great Emperor.

Now, he was fully complete.

Not only that, but the last trace of the Great Emperor on the Emperor Sword was also erased.

The sword was given to him without any hidden dangers!

Other than that, there was also an inheritance left in his mind.

Sword Holder Form!

The name of this inheritance was these three words.

This was the most precious ultimate art of the Great Emperor. It was his legacy!

It was also the move that slashed at the sky earlier!

Such kindness was so deep that Xu Qing couldn’t repay it. However, he didn’t have the ability to help at all when he saw the emperor facing such a siege.

Xu Qing suddenly stood up. Even though he didn’t have the qualifications, he still had to show his sword.

However, at this moment, a calm voice rang out from the sky.

“Calm down.”

This voice echoed through the human race. Just like how it had protected it for countless years, it could make the human race feel at ease.

At that moment, it spread through the entire world and comforted the Empress and Xu Qing. At the same time, the expression of the Sword Holding Great Emperor in the sky didn’t fluctuate at all, as though it was nothing much to face the joint forces of so many gods.

He raised his right hand and grabbed at the rushing Jade Flowing Dust.

With this grab, Jade Flowing Dust’s entire body trembled violently. The illusory sword on His chest actually emitted a shocking sword hum before rushing out.

This was the first time in tens of thousands of years that this sword was pulled out of Jade Flowing Dust’s chest.

The moment it appeared, it shone with a resplendent sword light and emitted monstrous sword qi before landing in the Great Emperor’s hand.

The Great Emperor grabbed it and slashed at the cold wind divine hand that was approaching from behind!

Sword light rose, shocking the world.

The divine hand was broken without any resistance. Countless drops of divine blood scattered down, the wind that could freeze everything also disintegrated and shattered.

The god from the Northern Fate Royal Family didn’t hesitate to flee.

As for the aftershock, it swept in all directions, causing all the hidden gods who rushed out of the void to spit out divine blood and retreat, not daring to get close at all.

The Great Emperor actually had another strike!

This sword had been left on Jade Flowing Dust’s chest tens of thousands of years ago. Today… he took it out.

It intimidated the surroundings.

When the gods retreated, it was the same for Jade Flowing Dust. He quickly retreated but His eyes revealed an unprecedented clarity. All her previous reactions instantly dissipated.

It became incomparably calm.

“The debt of gratitude for not killing me back then has been repaid!”

He came here to observe the last journey and also to deliver the last strike!

After saying that, with no more obstruction to hinder the recovery of His injuries He turned and took a step forward. His red robe rolled as He stepped into the void, leaving carefreely.

“The karma has been severed. Sword Holder… Farewell..”
