Outside Of Time

Chapter 1530: There Are Supreme Treasure Here

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Empress pondered and retracted Her gaze from the skeleton.

She then looked at the other seven stone gates in the surroundings.

After sweeping through them one by one, when Her gaze landed on the third stone gate, Her eyes narrowed slightly. After that, She closed Her eyes and sat cross-legged, waiting silently.

And beyond the third closed stone gate, which She was gazing upon, the black-robed figure, wrapped in iron chains, who had been moving mysteriously ever since arriving at Great Emperor Nether Flame’s seclusion site… was standing there.

His eyes stared fixedly at the stone gate in front of it, as though his gaze could penetrate it as well, observing the chamber behind the gate and the black crystal in the immortal skeleton’s hands.

He didn’t act rashly but his expression was gloomy. He chose to sit cross-legged and wait as well.

At the same time, in the Rain World, the other parties also used their own understanding and different methods to approach the location of the burial chamber.

They searched for the stone gates that led there.

In terms of searching, they had the advantage. On one hand, they each had information and had some understanding of the Great Emperor Nether Flame’s seclusion site.

On the other hand, because of their cultivation, it was easier for them to sense the location of the gates.

It could be said that everyone who came to the Great Emperor Nether Flame’s seclusion site, other than Xu Qing and Erniu, were all scheming experts.

Only Xu Qing and Erniu were like headless flies. In this Rain World, they had no idea about the gates or the underground chamber.

Moreover, their fates were filled with misfortune. After watching the old Ruler leave, the two of them summoned corpses dozens of times before they finally finished feeding the family of the head.

During this time, they didn’t even have the time to check the old Ruler’s storage bag.

Such repeated consumption made Xu Qing and Erniu physically and mentally exhausted.

However, there were also benefits. They had gone from being rough and unfamiliar with the gray fog at the start to becoming much more proficient in it.

This was especially so for Erniu. As the person who controlled the summoning, under this passive training, he was already close to mastering the gray fog.

As for freedom… although they still didn’t have it, as this family ate their fill, they dragged Xu Qing and Erniu along. After moving in the sky for some time, they returned to their lair.

Their lair was located in a majestic tomb!

This tomb was like a mountain.

On their way here, Xu Qing and Erniu had never seen such a vast mountain. It was so tall that it seemed to touch the sky and go beyond. Its range was like a huge city and it stood there like the summit of this world.

It had many underground palaces and numerous restrictions. However, upon the return of this family, all these restrictions became mere decorations.

After returning to their lair, the family dispersed. The two large heads went to the main palace and closed their eyes to sleep.

The small heads also returned to their respective palaces and fell asleep.

This time, they ate too much and were now digesting the food.

In just an instant, thunderous breathing rose and fell in the tomb.

Xu Qing and Erniu regained their lost freedom.

“Only such a large tomb can accommodate this family…”

“From the looks of it, this family should have been corpses in the past. However, for some reason, they gained intelligence later on and revived to a certain extent.”

Erniu glanced at Xu Qing. The two of them looked at each other. After waiting for a while and confirming that this family was sleeping soundly, they carefully retreated, wanting to find a way to leave.

However, very soon, the two of them sighed.

Their freedom was only to a certain extent.

They could walk around normally in this tomb, but were unable to leave it.

Restrictions were one of the issues, but they could be neutralized. The main issue was that they would feel their hearts palpitating when they moved too far.

The thunderous snoring would stop, as though that large head would awaken at the next instant.

“Damn it, they’re not letting us escape at all.”

“It must be that they’ve never been this full before, so now they’re addicted!”

Erniu was furious. He checked the items he had obtained from the Ruler. It seemed that only by calculating his harvest could he feel a little more calm.

Xu Qing, on the other hand, had a contemplative look in his eyes. He didn’t look at the items but looked around. After his gaze swept past the locations of the underground palaces, he suddenly spoke.

“Eldest Senior Brother, according to your theory on the desolate star previously…”

“You judged that Nether Flame must have had a fortuitous encounter there, so the more barren the place, the more opportunities there are.”

“Then… what about here?”

A dark glint appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes.

“I observed the number of underground palaces here and it perfectly matches this family. Moreover, when they returned, the restrictions were intact and didn’t stop them at all.”

“Then, there’s a high chance that this place is really this family’s tomb.”

“If these judgments are correct, how did they revive? Could it be that there are some opportunities here that caused them to undergo different changes from the other corpses?!”

As Xu Qing spoke, he looked at Erniu.

Erniu fell into deep thought. When he heard the last part, his eyes lit up.

“Not bad, Little Qing. Your analysis is exactly the same as mine!”

“I wanted to say that we have to search this place properly.”

Erniu rubbed his hands and surveyed his surroundings.

Xu Qing naturally wouldn’t argue with Erniu about whose thoughts it was. Seeing that his Eldest Senior Brother agreed, they didn’t hesitate and spread out, searching for anything suspicious.

Time slowly passed.

Very soon, seven days passed.

This family was still in a deep sleep. Clearly, they wouldn’t take the initiative to wake up in a short time. As for Xu Qing and Erniu, they had searched almost everywhere they could in these seven days.

Even in the vassal palaces where those small heads were sleeping, the two of them split up to investigate.

However, they couldn’t even see a hint of fortune.

Everything in the underground palace was empty. Even some items had decayed and lost their meaning.

In the end, the two of them appeared outside the tomb of the main palace where the two large heads were sleeping.

This place was the only place that they hadn’t checked.

“Could it be inside?”

Erniu’s breathing hastened slightly.

Xu Qing’s eyes gleamed.

Although there was danger in stepping into the main palace where the two large heads were sleeping in, since things had already come to this point, even if it was dangerous, it wouldn’t be more dangerous than their current situation.

Hence, after they looked at each other, they gritted their teeth and stepped into the main palace.

The moment they entered, thunderous snores rang out deafeningly.

The two large heads were sleeping together.

The palace was similar to the outside. It was empty and there were no miscellaneous items. Only… at the end, there was a stone gate.

This gate exuded ancientness and the imprints carved on it also emitted the aura of time, as though they had existed for a very, very long time.

The moment they saw this gate, Xu Qing and Erniu’s hearts stirred.

They had searched everywhere, and only this stone gate gave them a strange feeling.

Hence, after the two of them looked at each other, they looked at the two large heads again. After that, they carefully moved forward and finally arrived in front of the gate.

The instant they stood there, Xu Qing and Erniu’s pupils contracted.

At such a close distance, the ancient intent from this gate was even more intense. At the same time, there was a dense aura of death that seemed to be slowly seeping through the gate.

“There are supreme treasures inside!!”

Erniu’s breathing was hurried. After sniffing a few times, the light in his eyes crazily surged.

“According to my premonition and my intuition when searching for treasures in the past, Little Qing, the treasures inside must be amazing!!”

Erniu licked his lips and quickly stepped forward. As he touched the stone gate, he felt his heartbeat speeding up. He was even more certain of his judgment and pushed it forcefully.

The gate didn’t budge.

Even Xu Qing helped, but the stone gate only shook a few times and didn’t open.

Erniu was anxious.

A blue glint flashed in his eyes as he gave Xu Qing a look. Xu Qing immediately turned around and looked at the two large heads that were sleeping.

His gaze finally landed on the head that had captured them. He cupped his fists and bowed.

“Senior, thank you for taking care of us on this journey.”

“Senior, you brought the two of us here. If you said that you didn’t have the intention of letting us open this gate, I wouldn’t believe it.”

“Since that’s the case, Senior, please help us.”

On the way, although the large head didn’t say anything and everything seemed to be instinctive, that spurious smile from before still surfaced in Xu Qing’s mind.

Also, their tacit agreement to extort the Ruler…

Hence, Xu Qing didn’t believe that the other party’s intelligence wasn’t high. Based on this judgment, there was a reason why it brought the two of them here and allowed them inside the building and try to push the gate open.

This was also Erniu’s analysis. Hence, when Xu Qing turned and bowed, Erniu also bowed deeply.

The snoring instantly disappeared.

The two heads slowly opened their eyes and stared at Xu Qing and Erniu.

After that, they shifted their gazes away. When their gazes landed on the stone gate, their expressions became solemn and they even seemed to be fearful.

However, in the end… perhaps Xu Qing and Erniu’s judgment was correct, or maybe it was for other reasons, the two large heads looked at each other and blew at the same time.

These two breaths silently landed on the stone gate.

The stone gate instantly rumbled. Xu Qing and Erniu seized the opportunity and erupted with their full strength to push.

Finally, amidst the intense shaking of the stone gate, a gap was pushed open.

The instant the gap appeared, the aura of death spread out, accompanied by the fluctuations of Dao marks of authorities.

Xu Qing and Erniu’s hearts trembled. This was because through this gap, they saw a scene… A storm formed in their minds as they saw the vast underground chamber.

Countless skeletons were piled up, forming an altar.

There were a large number of inheritance marks and Dao marks of authorities within the chamber, and an immortal skeleton was sitting on the altar.

There were also… Great Emperor-level treasures floating in the surroundings.

“Great Emperor Nether Flame’s seclusion site!”

These words instantly appeared in Xu Qing and Erniu’s minds.

At the same time, they also noticed the other stone gates in the chamber.

Some were shut, while others… were opened.

Behind the opened stone gates, there were figures sitting cross-legged.

There were a total of three of them.

They were none other than the cultivators from the West Demon Feather who had entered the Dao altar with them!

The instant Xu Qing and Erniu looked at them, the three parties also raised their heads. Their gazes instantly penetrated the gap in the stone gate where Xu Qing and Erniu were.

Both sides exchanged glances..
