Outside of Time [Webnovel] - Chapter 1336: Each Has Their Own Intentions

A dense corpse aura swept out crazily from the tunnel. At the same time, two figures rushed out.

Feng’s gaze flashed. His body only paused for a moment but he didn’t retreat.

However, Lan Yao quickly performed a series of hand seals and activated her defense.

At the next instant, a rumbling sound echoed out as Lan Yao retreated. Two figures that looked like corpses or puppets appeared in front of her.

These two figures each had two heads and their eyes emitted a bloodthirsty glint. Their open mouths were filled with fangs and their entire bodies emitted a terrifying pressure.

After attacking Lan Yao, one of the puppets changed its direction and headed straight for Xu Qing.

It immediately started fighting with Xu Qing. Xu Qing’s heart sank. He could sense the boundless strength of this puppet and its terrifyingly tough body. Moreover, it even had resistance against divine abilities.

It was obvious that these puppets were extraordinary.

However, other than fighting, Xu Qing swept his gaze across the opened tunnel. He suddenly sent a thought to the ghost centipedes in the surroundings.

This thought wasn’t divine sense but was emitted by Xu Qing through the purple crystal. It was almost impossible for outsiders to sense it.

!!..

In an instant, the ghost centipedes gathered around Xu Qing. One by one, they fearlessly attacked the puppet. Some even self-destructed.

Lan Yao’s heart churned as well, facing the equally troublesome puppet.

In an instant, Xu Qing and Lan Yao were held back.

As for Feng, these two puppets actually ignored him.

This scene caused Lan Yao’s expression to immediately turn gloomy. As she manifested the eight-colored peacock and attacked, she looked at Feng.

“Feng Lintao, what is the meaning of this? Before we set off, I told my husband my whereabouts and the purpose of this trip!”

Feng’s gaze flickered. He wanted to leave immediately but he clearly had some reservations. In the end, he still explained.

“Fellow Daoist Lan, don’t misunderstand. I now possess the bloodline of the entire Liaoxuan. Moreover, this place was set up by my ancestor, so it naturally won’t cause much harm to me.”

“As for these two corpses, regardless of whether Fellow Daoist Lan believes it or not, 1 indeed didn’t know about them before. However, from the looks of it now, they should be fellow clansmen refined by my ancestor to guard this place.”

“If there were no outsiders today, perhaps they wouldn’t have been activated. However, it’s indeed my oversight, but don’t worry, Fellow Daoist Lan, I’ll go in and retrieve the liaoxuan holy liquid. I’ll naturally distribute it to you according to our agreement.”

With that, Feng’s body swayed and he rushed toward the tunnel that no longer had any obstructions.

The energy fluctuations here were very great, Lan Yao was engaged in fighting, and Feng had been focusing on her, so he failed to notice a shadow emerging from a ghost centipede that had self-destructed. It left no trace on the ground and emitted no aura as it entered the tunnel…

Seeing Feng leave, Lan Yao’s expression became even uglier. At this moment, under her attack, rumbling sounds echoed. However, the puppet in front of her blocked her with all its might, causing her to be unable to shake it off in a short period of time.

A baleful glint flashed in her eyes. She took out a seven-colored pearl. After swallowing it, her cultivation erupted explosively and a faint phantom appeared above her head.

The phantom was blurry and couldn’t be seen clearly, but the cultivation power it emitted was incomparably astonishing. After it appeared, it immediately pounced toward the puppet.

No matter how the puppet dodged, it wasn’t able to avoid the phantom. After an instant of contact, an earth-shattering boom rang out. This extraordinary puppet directly collapsed and shattered into pieces.

As for the phantom, it also dissipated.

Lan Yao’s face was also a little pale but she didn’t hesitate at all. She didn’t even glance at Xu Qing as she rushed toward the tunnel.

Xu Qing looked at all of this and was shocked by the other party’s secret art. His gaze flickered but he quickly calmed down and calmly fought against the puppet corpse in front of him without using any trump cards.

Ten breaths later, a whistling sound suddenly rang out from the tunnel. The next instant, Lan Yao and Feng rushed out.

The expressions of the two of them had changed. After they flew out, they paused in the air and each performed a series of hand seals, as though they were facing a great enemy.

Immediately after, rumbling sounds rang out from the tunnel as a golden light chased after him.

It was a giant golden rat!

All the hair on its body was standing on end, and its eyes shone with golden light. Its exposed teeth looked abnormally sharp.

There were also countless faces growing out of the flesh between its hair, looking incomparably sinister.

After it appeared, a ferocious glint flashed in its eyes as it roared at Feng and Lan Yao.

All the faces on its body followed suit, creating a soul-stirring sound.

After that, its body swayed and it actually disappeared. When it reappeared, it was in front of Feng. It opened its ghastly mouth, biting fiercely.

Feng’s expression changed drastically and he immediately retreated. At the same time, a shield appeared. It was the shield he had taken out when he fought with Xu Qing.

With a boom, the golden rat collided with the shield.

However, the shield that had blocked Xu Qing’s attack back then directly shattered under the collision, turning into a large number of fragments that flew everywhere.

The golden rat’s body also shook, but its ferocity increased instead of decreasing.

Just as it was about to continue rushing over, Lan Yao’s gaze flashed. She actually wanted to take this opportunity to head to the tunnel.

The golden rat roared and instantly disappeared, changing its direction and appearing in front of Lan Yao. At the same time that it blocked her path, golden light erupted from its entire body.

The eight-colored peacock manifested to block it, but after coming into contact with the golden light, the peacock collapsed.

When Xu Qing saw this scene, he revealed a shocked expression.

He could tell that this golden rat was a divine creature. Moreover, the density of its divinity was so high that it was almost at the stage of igniting the divine fire.

“That’s not right. It’s not that it’s about to be ignited but it was once ignited but for some reason, it was extinguished. Now that it has accumulated, it has reached a state where it can be ignited again.”

Xu Qing had interacted with a lot of gods. Now that he took a closer look, he immediately made a new judgment.

Feng’s expression turned unsightly. He performed a hand seal with one hand and quickly spoke.

“Fellow Daoist Flame Mystic, don’t just stay there. This divine rat entered the location of the liaoxuan holy liquid from other directions. Moreover, it has clearly been in hiding for a long time and was sleeping previously.”

“I encountered it halfway and was chased by it. If we can’t kill or trap this rat, it will be impossible for us to obtain the liaoxuan holy liquid!”

“As for the liaoxuan liquid, although 1 didn’t see it with my own eyes, I smelled it in the tunnel earlier. It’s still there!”

“Therefore, only when we go all out will we have a chance. I also have some trump cards. Also, I can try to control the puppet you’re fighting against!”

As he spoke, Feng didn’t forget to pinch Erniu to intimidate Xu Qing.

In his heart, he was feeling extremely frustrated. What he said was true. Although he entered first, he hadn’t reached the Liaoxual Pool yet when he encountered this golden rat.

The appearance of this beast wasn’t part of his plan, nor was it arranged by his ancestor.

However, now, he had no other choice. He gritted his teeth and spat out a mouthful of blood, activating a secret art. Immediately, the puppet fighting with Xu Qing trembled and retreated. It actually turned its head and headed straight for the golden rat.

When Lan Yao saw this, she wasn’t in the mood to pursue the ill intentions of Feng. At this moment, she resisted and retreated as she rapidly spoke.

“Fellow Daoist Flame Mystic, what he said is true!”

Xu Qing revealed a look of hesitation. He naturally knew that this was true…

After that, he spoke in a low voice.

“I want 30% of the liaoxuan holy liquid!”

When Feng heard this, he gritted his teeth fiercely.

“Alright!”

Lan Yao also knew that now wasn’t the time to be calculative, so she immediately nodded.

Seeing the two of them like this, Xu Qing wanted to say something.

However, considering that this would cause them to feel that he was stalling, he no longer hesitated. With a raise of his hand, the Spirit Devouring Blade appeared. He leaped up and cooperated with Feng, Lan Yao, and the puppet to attack the golden rat.

At the same time, he glanced at the tunnel and secretly sent a thought to Little Shadow.

“Don’t take them all away.. Leave some there!”
