Outside Of Time

Chapter 500 Eyes Of The Twilight Race (2)

Her eyes were filled with light and seemed as though they could absorb sunlight, causing her eyes to become brighter and brighter.

The two tentacles on her forehead were also swaying, weaving runes one after another that fused into her eyes.

However, this process clearly couldn't be interrupted, so the two Sword Holders were protecting her.

What stopped her from absorbing the sunlight was some invisible existence.

They seemed to have fused with the light. One could only see that the light circulating around them was more intense and distorted frequently.

"That's a light monster!" On the flying ship, Purple Mystic Fairy slowly spoke when she saw this scene.

"When light gains intelligence, they turn into light monsters. Most of them appear in places with dense sunlight. In reality, they are light, so they are very difficult to deal with or kill. They will only dissipate when night falls."

When Purple Mystic Fairy's voice rang out, the two Sword Holders on the ground were clearly no match for the light monsters and suffered injuries. It seemed like they had underestimated the difficulty of this mission.

Xu Qing looked at the captain.

The captain also looked at Xu Qing.

"Senior, this person helped us before. Disciple wants to go down and help." Xu Qing bowed to Purple Mystic Fairy.

"Do you need my help?" Purple Mystic Fairy asked gently.

"Eldest Senior Brother and I are enough. If we're not their match, we'll have to trouble Senior," Xu Qing said calmly. After Purple Mystic Fairy nodded, his body swayed and he left the flying ship.

The captain coughed.

"Actually, Senior can make a move now…"

Purple Mystic Fairy glared at the captain. The captain shrunk his head and hurriedly flew out. He followed Xu Qing and headed straight for the ground.

Noticing the two's arrival, the two Sword Holders who were fighting revealed grateful expressions. Among them, the male Sword Holder whom Xu Qing and the captain had seen in the Yinghuang Province quickly spoke.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoists. There are more light monsters than what we usually encountered in the past. Please help us protect this Twilight Race kid."

Xu Qing nodded and arrived at an extremely fast speed. As soon as he landed, he sensed a hint of killing intent surging toward him from the sea of light in front of him. Its speed was astonishing.

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. As the poison pill in the third Heavenly Palace shook, the intent of the Poison Restriction spread throughout his body.

At the next moment, a mournful cry rang out from the sea of light in front of him. After that, one could see a beam of light turning pitch-black and rapidly dissipating.

This scene caused the eyes of the two Sword Holders to light up. The captain's side also progressed smoothly. A blue light flashed on his body and in an instant, endless cold intent spread out.

This coldness was extremely terrifying. Wherever it passed, there would only be darkness and no light. It was as though this coldness could freeze the light.

Light was frozen.

After being frozen, it couldn't flow or move, so the surroundings naturally turned pitch-black.

It had to be said that here, the captain's terrifying ice power surpassed Xu Qing's.

The addition of the two of them reduced the burden on the two Sword Holders. Very soon, the crisis here was slowly resolved. The light monsters in the surroundings also felt that they were difficult to deal with and dispersed one after another.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoists!"

The two Sword Holders' cultivation levels were at the three palaces Golden Core Realm. At that moment, although they were grateful toward Xu Qing and the captain, they couldn't help but be vigilant.

This was instinct.

In this world, if one didn't have this instinct, they would die early.

Among the two of them, the one who had seen Xu Qing and the captain in the Yinghuang Province was filled with shock.

He had seen heaven's chosens and outstanding talents before, but he remembered that these two people in front of him were only in the Foundation Building realm back then. Now, they were actually on par with him. Moreover, from their attacks, it was obvious that they were even stronger.

"We haven't thanked you for giving us the treasure back then. It was just a casual act today." Xu Qing cupped his fists and returned the greeting as he spoke seriously.

"That's right. Moreover, my junior brother and I are also Sword Holders. When we see other Sword Holders, we naturally have to help." The captain laughed and pointed out his and Xu Qing's identities.

Upon hearing this, the two Sword Holders' expressions turned serious and they each took out their command swords.

Xu Qing and the captain also took out theirs. The four command swords shone with resplendent light. When the two Sword Holders saw this scene, they clearly relaxed and their vigilance was greatly reduced.

"I'm Chen Tinghao. This is my beloved, Sun Liying. Thank you very much for this. Looks like we were a little careless when we accepted this mission."

Chen Tinghao sighed with emotion. After that, he took out a jade slip and handed it to Xu Qing.

"I'll give you guys half of the military credits for this mission. Don't refuse. This is how we Sword Holders interact. We're comrades!"

Hearing this, Xu Qing and the captain didn't refuse. After taking the jade slip, the four of them chatted while waiting for the Twilight girl to absorb the sunlight.

Chen Tinghao and Sun Liying learned that Xu Qing and the captain were going to the county to report for duty. At the same time, Xu Qing and the captain also understood the other party's mission this time.

The Twilight Race was one of the rare allies of the human race.

Their talent was to use their eyes to absorb sunlight and then they could sell their eyeballs in an area without the sun.

This time, Chen Tinghao and Sun Liying had accepted a mission to escort this little girl here to absorb the sunlight because the sunlight here was the densest.

Not long later, the girl finished absorbing. She closed her eyes again and put on the black ribbon. She was much exhausted and weakened, and was carried on the back of Sun Liying.

Because they were also returning to the county capital, under Xu Qing and the captain's invitation, the two of them chose to board the flying ship with them.

On the flying ship, Chen Tinghao and Sun Liying greeted Purple Mystic Fairy respectfully.

Purple Mystic Fairy also expressed her welcome. She hoped that Xu Qing could make more friends with the Sword Holders before he entered the county capital.

However, her cultivation level was too high. If she stayed here, the pressure on Chen Tinghao and Sun Liying would be extremely huge. Hence, after she welcomed them, she returned to the cabin. Before she left, she smiled and asked Xu Qing to entertain them as the host.

They communicated happily.

Hence, as the flying ship moved toward the county capital, Chen Tinghao returned the favor and introduced the county capital in detail to Xu Qing and the captain.

"The county capital is the core of Fenghai County. Basically, the large forces in every province have established branches in the county. However, they are at the bottom of the entire county capital system and can be considered sixth tier. The fifth tier above them is the various government offices of the county.

"Above them are the three major forces and a family in Fenghai County. They are the Great Void Demon Transformation Sect, the Primordial Lightning Lineage, the Blood Frost Sect, and Marquis Yao's Dao Residence!"

"Among them, Marquis Yao's Dao Residence is the most special. The ancestor who founded the family was one of the 36 heavenly marquises of our human race in the past. He was bestowed the word 'Dao' by the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether. Only then could they continue to use the name Dao Residence in their name."

Chen Tinghao's voice gradually rang out as the flying ship sped.

They were getting closer and closer to the county capital.
