Outside Of Time

363 The Truth Is Revealed

The Forbidden Sea was alarmed and the expressions of the various forces changed.

The first to react was the Seven Sects Alliance, which was closest to the Sea Corpse Race. In an instant, six huge figures appeared above the Seven Sects Alliance.

There were men and women among them, but most of their faces were blurry and they couldn’t be seen clearly. The only thing that was clear was the piercing light emitted by their eyes.

“Seven Blood Eyes…”

!!

“They really created a Taboo.”

“Xue Lianzi, you’re scheming goes deep and can’t be underestimated!”

These six figures were the ancestors of six sects of the Seven Sects Alliance’s Senate.

As their divine senses communicated, they rose into the air at the same time and stepped in the sky, instantly disappearing. Their destination was none other than the Sea Corpse Race.

In an instant, their figures appeared in the air above the Sea Corpse Race. As the huge ancient bronze mirror rotated, their hearts trembled as they sensed the terrifying power of this Taboo magic treasure.

The moment any magic treasure advanced to a Taboo, it would undergo a mystical transformation and give birth to a strange ability. This ability determined how terrifying a Taboo was.

“Judgment… It’s actually a life-and-death judgment!”

“The Taboo of the Seven Blood Eyes isn’t for destroying a sect but to kill a single target. And, from my senses, the lethality of this treasure… is extremely terrifying!”

“Once this mirror locks onto a target and is activated, there’s a 10% chance that the person being reflected will instantly die. Because of its mirror body, it can be used from an ultra-long distance!”

“Although the probability is 10%, there are seven eyes above which means it can be activated seven times in a row. In that case, who will dare to gamble?!”

“Xue Lianzi’s cultivation base is at the first stage of Nihility. If he uses this Taboo to initiate a single target judgment, he can kill second stage Nihility!”

“Second stage… Only the Alliance Leader is at this realm.”

The six ancestors of the Seven Sects Alliance fell silent as they thought about different things. They knew that Taboo magic treasure were equivalent to the greatest deterrence of a sect. It wasn’t something that any sect had the qualifications and ability to possess.

The reason why it was the Seven Sects Alliance was because among the 137 sects in the alliance, only their seven sects had Taboos.

Moreover, it was almost impossible for Taboo magic treasures to be robbed. For instance, the Taboo of the Seven Blood Eyes was placed here but they didn’t dare to snatch it. Once they made a move, the Taboo magic treasure would erupt on its own.

This was also the terrifying thing about Taboo magic treasures. They had treasure spirits!

This Taboo of the Seven Blood Eyes was even more special. It used seven ancestral corpse statues as its power source. Once those seven closed eyes were opened, one could imagine how terrifying its might would be.

Therefore, after observing for a while, the six ancestors of the Seven Sects Alliance looked at each other and performed hand seals, forming an ultra-long-distance teleportation. They instantly disappeared and headed straight for the Seven Blood Eyes.

At the same time, the various forces of the Wanggu Continent’s Yinghuang Province all used various methods to look at the Seven Blood Eyes. They were very clear that the situation of the Seven Sects Alliance was about to change. The situation of the Wanggu Continent would also change because of this.

A storm was coming.

As for the Sea Corpse Race’s territory, everyone in the Sea Corpse Race trembled in despair. As for the Seven Blood Eyes’ disciples guarding this place, their eyes revealed excitement.

At that moment, the person who was the most shocked that his expression changed drastically and his breathing became hurried was… the Soaring Cloud Ancestor in the air above the Seven Blood Eyes.

His forehead was covered in sweat. The shock in his heart couldn’t be concealed and appeared on his face. He stared fixedly in the direction of the Sea Corpse Race.

Although he couldn’t see the scene there, he could clearly sense that he had been locked onto. It was as though Xue Lianzi only needed a thought to send him into a life-and-death calamity.

With this lock, he almost instantly understood the danger he was facing.

“Life and death judgment… seven times, life and death judgment!”

The Soaring Cloud Ancestor’s breathing was hurried and his eyes were bloodshot. He looked at Xue Lianzi with a complicated expression.

“Now, is my Seven Blood Eyes worthy of being an upper sect?” Xue Lianzi asked calmly.

The Soaring Cloud Ancestor opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say. He had now realized all the strategic plans of the Seven Blood Eyes.

The Seven Blood Eyes seemed to be fighting the Sea Corpse Race previously but in reality, destroying the Sea Corpse Race wasn’t their goal at all.

The Seven Blood Eyes had two goals.

One was to open a path to the Wanggu Continent.

A path appeared in the mind of the Soaring Cloud Ancestor. With the Seven Blood Eyes as the first point, the second point was the merfolk race, the third point was the sub islands of the Sea Corpse Race, and the fourth point was the main island of the Sea Corpse Race.

That place was already very close to the Wanggu Continent’s Seven Sects Alliance.

This was a line, a geographical line that connected the Seven Blood Eyes and the Seven Sects Alliance.

Moreover, the Seven Blood Eyes’ actions had been very logical. The reason why they attacked the merfolk race was because of the Seventh Peak’s competition. This lured the Sea Corpse Race over. Xue Lianzi made a breakthrough and rushed in to heavily injure the Sea Corpse Race’s ancestor.

This was actually the key factor in the Sea Corpse Race’s final defeat.

After that, they naturally attacked the Sea Corpse Race and conquered the sub islands step by step, stepping onto the main island.

It didn’t look like there were any flaws and the strength they revealed didn’t exceed the normal.

However, this goal was still discovered by the Seven Sects Alliance.

Therefore, they interfered in the war of the Sea Corpse Race, causing the Seven Blood Eyes to be unable to continue. Moreover, although the Seven Sects Alliance’s main plan was to destroy the Minor Affairs Sect and destroy the dam that blocked a tributary of the Immortal Enrichment River, they didn’t completely ignore the Seven Blood Eyes.

They planned to strike the mountain to intimidate the tiger. The mountain was the Minor Affairs Sect and the tiger was the Seven Blood Eyes.

This way, they would teach the Seven Blood Eyes their place without having to shed any blood.

However, they didn’t expect that the Seven Blood Eyes had a second goal. Moreover, the Seven Blood Eyes hid this goal even deeper. It was so deep that the Soaring Cloud Ancestor’s scalp felt numb.

He even felt that the Seven Blood Eyes had deliberately let them notice their first goal.

It was to hide their second goal.

This didn’t seem like Xue Lianzi’s style.

The second goal of the Seven Blood Eyes was the ancestral corpse statues of the Sea Corpse Race. They wanted to use it as the power source for their magic treasure and advance it to Taboo.

There were two prerequisites to this. One was that the Seven Blood Eyes had to have the method to use the ancestral corpse statues as a power source.

The second prerequisite was that the Seven Blood Eyes had to find many ancestral corpse statues scattered outside in advance!

...

Clearly, the Seven Blood Eyes had satisfied both of these prerequisites.

In fact, the Seven Blood Eyes even considered that the Seven Sects Alliance would interfere at the critical moment and call a halt to the war. Hence, all the anger and unwillingness in the war negotiations only had one goal. That was… to guarantee that they could get at least two ancestral corpse statues.

Even after the negotiation with the Sea Corpse Race was completed, the Seven Blood Eyes still remained low. Even though the heaven’s chosens of the Seven Sects Alliance had come to challenge to lower their reputation, the Seven Blood Eyes was still silent and waited for the array formations on the Sea Corpse Race.

In name, the goal of the array formations was to retrieve the spoils of war. This was reasonable.

However, in reality, the Seven Blood Eyes’ array formations weren’t built to retrieve the two statues but to send five over.

The moment the five statues were sent over, they had a total of seven ancestral corpse statues. Moreover, since they were all in the Sea Corpse Race’s land, the power of the statues were fully active. Everything was accomplished smoothly.

“So, when the disciples of the Alliance came to challenge you, you guys deliberately showed weakness to numb us? Now, what’s your goal? To become independent in the Wanggu Continent?” The Soaring Cloud Ancestor gritted his teeth and spoke in a low voice.

Xue Lianzi didn’t answer the first question because that wasn’t important anymore. He smiled and calmly answered.

“I’m getting old. I want to enjoy my old age in the Wanggu Continent. I also hope that there will be an additional chair in the Senate of the Seven Sects Alliance.”

The Soaring Cloud Ancestor felt extremely aggrieved. However, compared to the matter of the life lantern being snatched and his grandson being heavily injured, the ambition and determination erupting from the Seven Blood Eyes were more important.

At this moment, the entire Seven Blood Eyes was extremely quiet. The disciples didn’t know the details but they could sense that the atmosphere was different. When they heard the ancestor’s words, their hearts raced and all kinds of guesses rose.

...

Xu Qing lifted his head and stared at the sea. At that instant earlier, he vaguely sensed something but it was blurry.

“I see. These old men are too sinister. I finally know what their trump card is.” The captain let out a long sigh and his eyes revealed vigor. He was clearly muttering to himself but he deliberately raised his voice.

Xu Qing looked over. Third Senior Brother also looked over suspiciously. Second Senior Sister was still transmitting her voice.

“Eldest Senior Brother, do you really know? Is it a Taboo? A Taboo of our Seven Blood Eyes?” The third brother was uncertain.

Xu Qing looked at the unfathomable captain and was also uncertain.

“This matter is worth 1,000 spirit stones. If any of you want to know, I’ll tell you.” The captain sighed with emotion.

“You know bullsh*t!” Old Master Seventh’s voice appeared.

The captain was embarrassed. While he was coughing, Old Master Seventh’s voice entered their ears.

“This is a plan I came up with for the ancestor. The plan has been in progress for a hundred years and has been completed step by step until now.”

“You guys don’t have to guess. At this moment, on the territory of the Sea Corpse Race, there’s a Taboo magic treasure that belongs to our Seven Blood Eyes. It’s also the eighth Taboo magic treasure in the Seven Sects Alliance. It can keep other forces in check and ensure that the Seven Blood Eyes can smoothly enter Wanggu.”

“From now on, the name of the Seven Sects Alliance will also change.” Old Master Seventh turned his head and glanced at his four disciples with a faint smile.

“Do you think the name Eight Sects Alliance sounds better?”

The instant Old Master Seventh spoke, the color of the sky changed and waves of aura that shook the surroundings descended.

Six god-like existences appeared in the sky around Xue Lianzi and the Soaring Cloud Ancestor.

They were the ancestors of the other six sects in the Seven Sects Alliance’s Senate!

Almost at the instant they appeared, an old woman walked out of the Seven Blood Eyes and soared into the sky. She arrived in a single step and stood beside Xue Lianzi, smiling at the Seven Sects Alliance.

“Long time no see.”

“I took a nap earlier and heard that someone wants the Seven Blood Eyes to hand over Xu Qing. My granddaughter likes that kid very much and I am considering a marriage alliance. If he’s killed, my granddaughter will be unhappy and so will I.”

“I don’t have a big family. I only have one granddaughter. If I’m unhappy, I’ll make you guys unhappy too!”
