Outside Of Time

Turning Advantage Into Weakness

Translator: Atlas Studios | Editor: Atlas Studios

Feng Lintao was very smart. He used the human race and the holy land to fake

his death and escape.

He was also very cautious. After he faked his death, he faked his death again to

cut off all traces.

However, he… was in a tragic state.

He was Xu Qing and Erniu’s bait and the fish Yue Dong wanted to catch.

He possessed both the identity of a bait and a fish. It had to be said that this was quite a fate.

At that moment, with his double identity, he was speeding through the land of

the Gray Sea Region. His target was the Northern Wanggu.

He wanted to take advantage of the fact that Wanggu was at war with the holy lands and advance secretly. He wanted to enter the icy plain in the Northern Wanggu and cultivate the inheritance of the Liaoxuan Great Emperor m the endless cold.

Feng Lintao believed that with his aptitude and his preparations, the possibility of success was very high.

“It’s a pity that I obtained too little of the liaoxuan holy liquid; otherwise, my chances of success would have reached more than seventy percent!”

Feng Lintao drew in a deep breath and sped into the distance at full speed.

Several days later, he bypassed the Grand Imperial Capital Region of the human race from the edge of the Gray Sea Region and prepared to pass through the Flame Moon and leave the Eastern Regions.

Although he encountered some bizarre entities due to the chaos of the war, he

carefully resolved them one by one.

He cared a lot about his current body. In addition, he had confirmed that he was safe now, so he no longer used fatal methods to probe like before.

Xu Qing and Erniu, who were hiding in the sky, finally felt that things had become smoother.

Previously, after Feng Lintao faked his death for the second time, they locked onto his location again and chased after him at full speed. Now that they saw that Feng Lintao was starting to cherish himself, Erniu revealed a satisfied smile.

“Little Feng really makes one worry.”

“isn’t it good to be a good bait? Why does he struggle so much? Shouldn’t he consider how we fishermen feel?!”

“That’s why I say Feng Lintao is much inferior to the two of us. When the two

of us were bait, we were so obedient!”

Erniu glanced at Feng Lintao who was shuttling through the jungle below and

spoke to Xu Qing.

Xu Qing glanced at Erniu and thought of Erniu’s words on the outer sea. In comparison, he felt Feng Lintao was actually still alright. At the very least… he wouldn’t attract those terrifying gods and the behemoth that devoured them in one gulp.

However, considering that Eldest Senior Brother’s interest was currently very strong, Xu Qing didn’t say anything. The two of them followed from afar, waiting for the fish to appear.

Just like that, another five days passed.

There was a major change in Feng Lintao’s matter.

On the Demon Feather Holy Land’s side, the bounty that had been canceled because they had successfully assassinated Feng Lintao was revealed again!

As the wanted poster was released, there were also decrees from the Demon Feather Holy Land!

They announced to the public that the Heavenly King Feather Fiend of the human race, the traitor of the holy land, hadn’t really died but had faked his death to escape!

As soon as this news spread, it immediately caused a commotion in the Eastern

Wanggu.

Feng Lintao’s previous reputation was already illustrious under the push of the human race. His death even incited the anger of the human race.

And now… the holy land actually announced that Feng Lintao had faked his death!

This matter was bizarre.

The unrelated forces couldn’t tell if it was true or false.

However, as the wanted poster was released, the rewards listed were enough to

tempt many cultivators.

The rewards included Ruler’s fortune!

Moreover, regardless of Wanggu races or the holy lands, anyone who killed

Feng Lintao could obtain the rewards.

Hence, the spies from the holy lands who were hiding moved out one after another to search for Feng Lintao.

As for Wanggu’s side, their thoughts were in turmoil, but on the surface, they all revealed indignation. They also spread out their men, as though they wanted to stop the tragedy.

However, only they knew what their true plans were.

The human race also displayed indignation and began to investigate this matter.

Just like that, as the war outside the array formation continued to erupt, various parties in the array formation began to frequently search for Feng

Lintao.

The one who suffered the most was naturally the person involved.

Feng Lintao’s heart skipped a beat. He felt an intense sense of uneasiness and became increasingly cautious on this trip.

Xu Qing and Erniu also had their own thoughts after hearing this news, and looked at each other.

Xu Qing and Erniu also had their own thoughts after hearing this news. In the

end, their gazes met.

Xu Qing slowly asked.

Erniu licked his lips as a blue glint appeared in his eyes.

“Interesting. There must be a deeper meaning for the Demon Feather Holy Land to announce this at this time… I wonder if it’s Lan Yao’s doing or the holy land’s own decision.”

-Are they really going to kill Feng Lintao, or… are they intentionally startling

the enemy??”

Xu Qing looked at Feng Lintao, who was advancing stealthily in the mountain range below. He narrowed his eyes and calmly spoke.

“When I caught snakes as a child, I would hit the grass because snakes hidden in the grass are hard to catch. Only by startling the snake out of the grass can you catch it.”

Erniu fell into deep thought.

“But there’s still one thing 1 don’t understand. The Demon Feather Holy Land could have carried this out in secret. Why create such a huge commotion?”

“Little Qing, let’s analyze this. 1 feel that something is amiss here.”

Erniu frowned.

Xu Qing thought about it and looked at Erniu.

“Senior Brother, let me put myself in Feng Lintao’s shoes and think about this matter. If I were Feng Lintao, what would I do in the face of such a situation… “1’11 be worried that there are other problems here. Rather than being chased like this, it’s better to find an opportunity and fake my death again in front of everyone. Even though this has been done several times, it will take time to verify it. What 1 need is time.”

When Erniu heard Xu Qing’s words, his eyes lit up, revealing a look of

understanding.

“That makes sense. In that case, is it possible that the Demon Feather Holy Land wants Feng Lintao to make such a choice? With Feng Lintao’s paranoid personality, he will definitely react to their action of startling the snake!”

“If this is the case, then what’s the holy land’s goal in wanting Feng Lintao to fake his death…”

Before Erniu could finish speaking, he suddenly looked at Xu Qing. The two of them looked at each other and already had an answer in their minds.

“Feng Lintao still has a third clone! Moreover, there’s a high chance that this third clone has already been found by the holy land or Yue Dong or Lan Yao.”

Xu Qing’s voice was low.

“Exactly. So, the holy land or Lan Yao and Yue Dong want Feng Lintao dead.

Once he dies, the third clone will instantly fall under their control!”

“This is taking advantage of Feng Lintao’s paranoia!

“The more suspicious he is, the harder it will be for him to see through this trap!”

-There will be countless doubts in his heart and he won’t be willing to let such a situation that has gone out of control keep appearing. He will definitely think of a way to try to take the initiative, so I’m certain that he will reveal himself and not hide forever.”

“Because he’s worried!”

The two of them suddenly felt enlightened and began the follow-up arrangements in advance.

As for Feng Lintao, his paranoia was already engraved in his bones. In the next few days, his whereabouts became even more concealed and his speed slowed down by a lot.

Clearly, his paranoia had begun to take effect. Any point of doubt would be magnified and thoroughly investigated by him.

The more he investigated, the more suspicious points he found…

Finally, on the sixth day, under the attention of Xu Qing and Erniu, Feng Lintao seemed to have made a decision. He could clearly continue to choose to hide but in the face of the increasing search range from all sides, he chose to expose his whereabouts!

Of course, the method of exposing himself was very ingenious. He looked like

he had been schemed against.

The moment he was exposed, he fled crazily and tried to hide his tracks many times. However, it was clearly too late. His whereabouts were instantly spread out, causing the pursuit to continue to heat up in the territory of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race.

This pursuit went on for eleven days… In the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race’s territory near the boundary of Southern Wanggu, Feng Lintao, who had fled all the way here as though he wanted to step into the southern territories, was finally stopped.

It was as though he was at his wits’ end and was enveloped by despair. Feng Lintao fell into madness and struggled to escape with his life. However, everything was already set in stone.

Even though he counterattacked and killed many of the pursuers, he was still killed by the spies from the holy lands in the end!

Feng Lintao died again!

Almost at the instant he died, in the cave in Liaoxuan County, the red light on the forehead of the third clone of Feng Lintao that was hidden here was almost completely extinguished.

However, at the next instant, it shone brightly.

After that, Feng Lintao’s third body opened its eyes.

However, the instant he opened his eyes, his expression changed drastically. His body swayed back and he was about to escape. However, with a cold snort, the middle-aged cultivator who had been waiting here for a long time clenched his fist.

immediately, the cave rumbled. The arrangements made here that isolated perception and prevented him from dying to escape again were activated one after another. At the same time, a huge force erupted around Feng Lintao, who had just woken up. After it gathered, it directly bound him.

There was also a suction force, causing Feng Lintao’s body to head straight for the middle-aged cultivator.

In an instant, the middle-aged cultivator grabbed his neck with hatred in his eyes.

“Fellow Daoist Feng, you’re finally here.”

Feng Lintao’s face was pale as he stared fixedly at the unfamiliar middle-aged man in front of him. He was certain that he had never seen the other party before but he felt a sense of familiarity from this person.

That was the same hateful gaze as Lan Yao and a tone that was similar to Yue Dong’s!

He wanted to speak but the palm on his neck was like an iron clamp, causing him to be unable to make a sound. Moreover, the cultivation base in his body had been completely sealed. At this moment, only death enveloped his mind.

He instantly understood everything. He knew why the Demon Feather Holy Land had announced that he wasn’t dead and also knew that he had miscalculated!

“Your paranoia is your strength but also your weakness.

The middle-aged cultivator spoke coldly. He carried Feng Lintao and left this place in an instant. When he reappeared, he was already in the outside world, speeding into the distance.

At that moment, the sun was setting. The afterglow scattered on the former territory of the Liaoxuan County.

The middle-aged cultivator’s figure moved further and further away m the afterglow.

However, he didn’t sense that the Feng Lintao in his hand was emitting invisible threads. These threads represented karma, origin, and fate.

They guided the way and drifted very far away, landing in front of Xu Qing and Erniu, who were rushing over.

After being grabbed by Erniu who was using the ruthless dao of tracing the origin, his eyes revealed a strange glint.

“The fish has finally taken the bait!”

Xu Qing’s right eye flickered with the dao mark of authority. He stared at these threads and then looked into the distance, calmly speaking.

“The other party is also very cautious. It’s just a small fish.”

“However, if we follow this fish, we’ll definitely be able to find the owner.” Erniu smiled. After augmenting his perception of the origin threads, he suddenly spoke.

“Little Qing, why do you think Lan Yao and Yue Dong are spending so much effort on Feng Lintao? Does this guy have some treasures that we don’t know about?”

Erniu narrowed his eyes and licked his lips.
