Outside of Time - Chapter 1179

[Chapter 1157: What separates us is time]

Silently, it gives people a sense of black and white.

It’s hard to describe and hard to put into words.

Only the fearless wind, whether it was blowing from between heaven and earth or becoming an undercurrent in the glacier, surged at the same time.

The long hair of the four people was lifted up.

Drifting in the wind, drifting in the water.

The journey was silent.

The Immortal Lord was silent, and Xu Qing was also silent.

Until a long time later, as the sun in the sky gradually became brighter, illuminating the world and making the ice layer shine brightly…

The father and son on the ice have reached the center of the ice lake.

Here, the Aurora Immortal Lord paused and spoke calmly.

“We’re here. You should be familiar with this place.”

Xu Qing was unfamiliar with this place, but the memories from the young master of Aurora emerged in his mind, bringing familiarity and recognition.

Jiu’an Cave Heaven!

Among the twelve immortal masters today, the one who has one month left in his rotation in this era… The immortal palace of the Nine Shore Immortal Master is located!
But it is obviously different from the immortal palace of the Aurora Immortal Master. In the eyes of the world, the immortal palace of the Nine Shore Immortal Master is just this frozen lake.

It lies quietly among the mountains, like a shining gem inlaid in the snow-covered earth.

The mirror-like lake surface reflects the blue of the sky and the white of the surrounding snow-capped mountains, as well as the human hearts that sink to the bottom of the lake.

Thus, under the frozen lake, with the surge of undercurrents, a variety of colorful colors appear in the skylight. While it is like a dream, it will also sink into the hearts of people and evolve into endless secrets.

Hidden within.

Just like the way of Immortal Lord Jiu’an.

Secret!
Everyone has his or her own secrets, and every history has its own hidden secrets.

Even a mountain or a river has unknown things.

And all the secrets of this fifth star ring are controlled by the source.

That is…

The Immortal Lord of Jiu’an who achieved enlightenment by keeping secrets!

So, when someone walks on this ice, their own secret reflection will be formed under the glacier.

Occasionally, some strange bubbles would float in the lake. They would slowly rise and break when they touched the ice, leaving behind perfect circles.

Can’t get out of the ice.

Such as keeping a secret.

“Kneel down!”

The Aurora Immortal Lord spoke softly.

Xu Qing lowered his head. This body that was possessed by his consciousness seemed to no longer be under his control. As these two words echoed, it knelt silently on the ice.

The moment my knees touched the ice, there seemed to be a sigh, coming from the sky or from the lake under the ice.

Aurora looked normal and spoke softly.

“Brother Jiu’an, I have brought my evil son here.”

“Aurora, there’s no need to be like this with junior matters.”

A vicissitudes of life voice came from under the lake after Aurora spoke.

His voice was hoarse, and carried a hint of indescribable melancholy.

Along with the sound, there appeared ripples of the lake water under the ice. Through the ice, Xu Qing seemed to see a vast figure as big as a god appearing at the bottom of the lake.

The figure was so huge that it was impossible to see its entirety. Only its vague face could be seen, occupying most of the lake.

The eyes on the face, at this moment, glowed silver under the sunlight.

Staring at the figure at the bottom of the lake, the Aurora Immortal Lord shook his head and spoke solemnly.

“This matter, from beginning to end, is all his fault!”

“I just asked him to come here to practice half a year ago, but I didn’t expect that this evil boy’s mind was not on practice at all, but on the Taoist brother’s daughter.”

“But fortunately, the two of them are in love and there is no coercion. Although there were some misunderstandings due to the adjustment of their personalities, as elders, we can’t interfere too much.”

“Also, although my son is clumsy, he is also a responsible person, so I brought him here today to propose marriage to Brother Jiu’an.”

“I hope that these two young people will walk together on the same path from now on. They will be both Taoist companions and Taoist friends. They will walk the immortal path hand in hand. In the eyes of you and me, they will achieve immortal status in the future.”

“This is also a good story.”

The Aurora Immortal Lord’s voice was low and echoed in all directions. He raised his right hand and waved it forward.

Suddenly, four items appeared out of thin air.

“There are four gifts for the bride price.”

“First, the blood of the former Fifth Star Ring God Lords Luoyin and Mengluo, the two fallen gods, contains a trace of their residual thoughts of returning in the future, and contains their secrets.”

“This is what you were longing for, Brother Jiu’an. I found it for you a few days ago.”

The Aurora Immortal Lord spoke calmly.

These words may sound light, but in reality, they are something that a being at the level of an Immortal Lord can always long for but cannot obtain. Even for him, it would cost him a huge price to get it.

So when this thing appeared, the ethereal face under the ice lake also flashed silver light in its eyes.

“The second thing is two blank jade slips containing my soul and blood. Daoist Jiu’an can fill out one of them by himself after one month. The content inside is my fate.

The second is the jade slip for external objects. Any item in my Aurora Palace that Daoist Jiu’an values can be written on it. Regardless of whether the item has an owner or not, the cause and effect will be erased instantly, and you will be the final owner!”

Xu Qing was moved.

The first item was beyond his level of understanding.

But within his understanding, the two jade slips, the one with written content, was like an imperial edict.

You should know that one month later, Jiu’an stepped down and Aurora ascended the throne.

In the future Aurora Era, keeping this blank imperial edict will have immense significance.

The same is true for the items in the Fairy Palace, which contain everything inside and have no time limit. They can be used at any time.

This shows the utmost sincerity!
Jiu’an at the bottom of the lake opened his mouth at this moment, as if he wanted to say something.

But the voice of the Aurora Immortal Lord continued to echo.

“The third one is worthless. It’s just my son’s horoscope.”

The Aurora Immortal Lord spoke softly, and when he raised his hand, a piece of red paper flew out and floated aside, with eight words on it.

Xu Qing glanced over and saw that it was indeed the host he was inhabiting and his birth date and horoscope.

However, when all these are added together, what is revealed in his heart is a deep, unspoken fatherly love.

After doing all this, the Aurora Immortal Lord bowed his head and bowed deeply to the ice lake…
Such a betrothal gift, such an identity, and such a bow,
all the words that Jiu’an wanted to say stopped in his heart, and he could no longer continue under the lake.

Then, as sighs echoed, countless lines rose from the icy lake.

They are the hidden secrets of the world, invisible, but now they penetrate the ice and appear on the ice. After gathering together… they become visible from invisible.

He became a middle-aged monk with an immortal look and wearing a blue Taoist robe.

Standing in front of Aurora, looking into their eyes.

After a while, he raised his right hand and took away the hybrid, the jade slip that was like an imperial edict, and the birth date. However, he flicked the blank jade slip that could define any item in the Immortal Palace.

Fly towards Xu Qing.

He was grabbed by Xu Qing.

“In one month, you will marry my daughter. From now on, you will not only be the son of Aurora, but also the son-in-law of Jiu’an!”

Xu Qing bowed his head and bowed respectfully.

The Aurora Fairy Lord laughed, as if the heavy burden on his shoulders was lifted at this moment, and the smile that had not appeared on his face for a long time finally appeared.

He stared at Jiu’an, at his best friend in life.

They grew up together, practiced together, and killed enemies together. Too many times, they faced life and death together. The friendship formed by the blend of iron and blood…

They are willing to risk their lives for each other, and when they were young, they joked that if their children were of the same gender in the future, they would also be brothers.

If they are different, they can become Taoist companions.

Thoughts rose and fell in my heart, and finally turned into a silent fist, and then I turned and left.

Xu Qing also stood up from the ground, bowed, and walked away with Aurora with mixed feelings.

Jiu’an endured it silently, watching the father and son walking further and further away on the icy lake.

He murmured in his heart for a long time.

“I know you are going to do something earth-shattering…”

“Aurora, ah Aurora, to the Immortal Venerable, you are a filial son, and to this child, you are also a loving father!”

“It’s just that you, being in the middle, feel bitter.”

“Perhaps, since the day Lan Xi died, you no longer linger on this world.”

Jiu’an sighed softly, his body blurred and turned into countless hidden threads again, falling on the ice and sinking.

…

After leaving Jiu’an Cave Heaven, the father and son continued walking between heaven and earth.

The breeze blew up the hair of the Aurora Fairy, and also caused ripples in the body that Xu Qing was inhabiting.

But they still didn’t speak to each other.

But Xu Qing didn’t know if it was an illusion, but the coldness on the body of the Aurora Immortal Lord in front of him seemed to be gradually blown away by the wind and gradually faded away.

That feeling of alienation was also quietly erased along with the disappearance of indifference.

And the search for the root… was at the moment when the Immortal Lord Jiu’an nodded.

The burden that was unloaded at that moment might be more than a thousand pounds in weight.

Moreover, the road they were taking was not the direction back to the Fairy Palace.

Instead, it gradually approached a place that Xu Qing was also familiar with in reality.

Until, a vast sea of golden sand came into Xu Qing’s sight.

It seems like a real sea, sparkling and shining in the sun.

Like a dream.

That was the desert that Xu Qing had been to.

It’s just that Xu Qing went to the present world after endless years, while he came to the long time ago.

The space between them is the name of the desert.

Time.

“When you were a child, the thing you asked me the most was about your mother.”

Walking in the desert of time, the figure of the Aurora Immortal Lord seemed to have lost his immortal aura, as if this desert had an incomparable meaning to him.

Therefore, Fan’s return at this moment made his figure seem to have gained some meaning of age.

He spoke softly as he walked.

“I didn’t tell you much in the past.”

“Now, you have grown up, are about to get married, and have your own wife, so… I brought you here.”

“This is where your mother’s life soul treasure dissipated. It is also the only trace she left in this world.”
