Outside Of Time

432 Three Souls and Seven Spirits

Three Spirits Suppression Mountain, like the Eight Sects Alliance, was located in the southern part of Yinghuang Province, on the other side of Grand Affairs Misfortune Passing Mountain.

The mountain range was huge, and was filled with miasma. There were many evil cultivators and endless bizarre entities.

To a certain extent, it was no different from a forbidden zone.

This mountain range also divided the southern part of the Yinghuang Province into two parts.

!!

Comparatively speaking, one side was considered a paradise. At least, there would be occasional laughter. The other side was hell. Being able to cry was a luxury. Numbness was the only main theme.

This was Three Spirits Suppression Mountain.

It was also the most dangerous place in the Yinghuang Province besides the forbidden region.

This region was comparable to half of the Nanhuang Continent. It spanned a total of one hundred and thirty-seven countries belonging to humans and nonhumans.

Regardless of whether it was day or night, not many sounds would appear in the 137 countries. It was not that there were no people, but living was already a torture. All living beings were kept in captivity and were just food.

And food had no right to speak.

Therefore, the people living in the 137 countries lost the ability to speak. The only sound they could make was miserable screams.

As a result, the land here was silent, and even the sky was gloomy and enveloped by dense dark clouds that blocked the sun and moon.

Only the ghostly flames ignited by the oil of the corpses of the myriad races on the small mountains piled up with bones were the source of light in this vicious land.

The corpses on those small mountains didn’t have any flesh. They were all bones. Some seemed to have been placed there for a long time, while others had been thrown there not long ago.

At a glance, these mountains of bones could be seen everywhere.

Every hundreds of miles, there would be a densely packed forest.

Countless mortals had died here over the countless years.

It was also because of these endless deaths that the aura of death filled the area, making it extremely oppressive.

The color of the ground was dark purple due to being soaked in blood time and time again. The grains of sand had long been glued together, making it look like a patch of felt.

There was also an unpleasant stench that filled the world. Ordinary people would definitely vomit even bile when they smelled it.

The trees were all red and absorbed the blood in the soil as nutrients. Some of them had naked corpses hanging on them.

These dried corpses swayed like dried meat and were being weathered.

If one looked closely, they would see that the dried corpses were covered in something that volatilized them.

This attracted some ferocious birds and the bizarre entities that filled the surroundings. They would become supplementary ingredients to be cooked with the dried corpses.

Besides the trees, there were also blood lakes. i????????????ea????.＆nbsp;????????????

Bubbles silently appeared in the lake. Occasionally, when the disciples of Three Spirits Suppression Mountain passed by the lakes, they would stop and take a sip, their expressions filled with satisfaction.

Xu Qing’s magic warship silently flew through the sky. The scenes below caused him to fall silent.

The captain was also silent. Even Yanyan, who was extremely vicious, was a little dazed after seeing this.

Xu Qing had seen the force that called themselves Little Three Spirits in the Grand Affairs Misfortune Passing Mountain. However, compared to this place, they couldn’t even be called little.

There was simply no comparison.

“It looks like 137 countries, but there are less than 100 of them now. This is also the reason why Three Spirits Suppression Mountain has been going out frequently recently to capture small countries.”

“The number 137 seems to have a special meaning for the Three Spirits. Therefore, whenever they don’t have enough, they have to replenish it.”

The captain looked at the ground and spoke softly.

“But at the level of the Three Spirits, why would they want to devour the flesh and blood of various races? This should be meaningless to them.” Yanyan was very puzzled.

“The Three Spirits are the three souls of the Nanyue Ghost Emperor.”

Xu Qing told the captain and Yanyan about what his master had said back then. At the same time, he also felt that the Ghost Emperor Mountain in his sea of consciousness had changed.

It was as if the Ghost Emperor Mountain had become even more lifelike in this area.

This caused Xu Qing to feel very strange in his heart. At the same time, he had even more guesses.

The captain nodded thoughtfully.

“Then, it’s not strange. There are three souls and seven spirits in his body. This must have some rules that we don’t know about.”

After Xu Qing sensed the Ghost Emperor Mountain in his sea of consciousness, he glanced at a blood lake below and looked at the disciple of Three Spirits Suppression Mountain who was collecting water beside the blood lake.

“According to Master, after the Ghost Emperor died here, the Yinghuang Province became different. Then, can it be understood that every person born in this land contains a trace of the Ghost Emperor’s bloodline?”

“If that’s the answer, it also explains why the Three Spirits keep eating… In fact, this is how they strengthen themselves.”

“That’s right!” The captain’s eyes lit up.

“That’s most likely the case. However, this matter is too far away from us and we don’t have to search for the truth.”

As he spoke, the magic warship silently flew over the blood lake. Such a huge magic warship passed overhead, but the disciple who was fetching water did not notice it at all.

This was because after entering the range of Three Spirits Suppression Mountain, the captain used a concealment item to cover Xu Qing’s magic warship.

Xu Qing thought for a while before giving up on the idea of capturing the disciple for research.

This time, their priority was to conceal themselves, so it was best not to alert the enemy.

Just like that, time slowly passed. Soon, half a month had passed.

During this half a month, Xu Qing and the other two were getting closer and closer to the center of Three Spirits Suppression Mountain. Along the way, they saw even more miserable scenes and also saw empty countries.

Those small countries had become dead cities with no living beings in it. They were a scene of gray, and only bizarre entities could be seen wandering inside.

Xu Qing also noticed that the Ghost Emperor Mountain in his sea of consciousness had not only become more lifelike, but it also emitted a faint glow. This made him even more cautious.

Three days later, Xu Qing talked with the captain and decided not to use the magic warship anymore.

...

The magic warship was too big. If this continued, even if the captain’s concealment item was powerful, there might still be some flaws.

As for Yanyan, she was very obedient along the way. What she saw on the ground had made her silent.

Even though she was vicious, she wasn’t pure evil. Xu Qing saw compassion and anger in her eyes many times over this trip.

When they were near the edge of the central region of Three Spirits Suppression Mountain, Xu Qing put away his magic warship. The moment the three of them landed, the captain quickly took out dozens of magic artifacts from his storage bag.

“In order to take back my treasured dress, I’ve prepared for a long time. These are all items that I’ve collected to conceal aura. If one isn’t enough, we’ll use five. If five isn’t enough, we’ll use ten!” As the captain spoke, he quickly distributed them to Xu Qing and Yanyan.

The three of them activated over ten concealment artifacts to conceal their auras and figures to an extreme degree. Then, they sped towards Three Spirits Suppression Mountain.

There was no pause on the way. Another half a month passed. In the distant dark world, three extremely majestic black mountains that pierced into the clouds entered the eyes of Xu Qing and the other two.

The three mountains were boundless and majestic, and seemed to be able to shake the Heavens. Anyone who looked at them would be shaken. On one hand, it was because these mountains gave off a shocking pressure, and on the other hand, there were almighty existences on the three black mountains.

As a result, it was as if the mountains had spirits that made people want to worship it.

The moment Xu Qing and the other two saw the three mountains, they stopped in their tracks and their expressions changed.

Those three black mountains were the Three Spirits Suppression Mountain!

...

Above the clouds at the top of the mountains, a huge phantom appeared, forming a phenomenon of heaven and earth. It was like three huge funnels that sucked in the black fog in the sky.

Within the fog were three enormous thrones.

The throne above the third mountain was made of crystal. It was extremely luxurious, dazzling, and exquisite. There was an absolutely gorgeous woman sitting on it.

This woman’s body was tall, but her proportions were perfect. She was filled with seduction, and the charm emitted from her beautiful eyes could make males restless.

After looking at her for a long time, one would be infatuated and unable to extricate themselves.

This woman was none other than the Ghost Emperor Mountain’s Human Soul, Spirit Venerable Nether Fairy.

She sat there with a mirror in her hand, admiring her beauty. Occasionally, she would wave her hand, and countless mortals of all races would be pulled over to surround her.

Amidst the wails, she would grab the mortals like a delicious snack and place them into her mouth. She slowly chewed them, and as she devoured them, her skin seemed to become better.

The second mountain was even more terrifying. The throne there was made from the bones of a giant black beast, and it looked like a gigantic skull. Countless dead souls surrounded it, and a tall cultivator sat on the throne.

Although the cultivator was really tall, he was as skinny as a stick, and looked like an enormous skeleton. He had no hair, and his entire body was emaciated. His back bulged up like a small mountain.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that the bulging mountain was actually a huge sarcoma. Greenish-red blood vessels filled it as if the sarcoma had sucked away all the flesh and blood in his body.

As it squirmed rhythmically, booming sounds that sounded like war drums reverberated through the world.

Furthermore, the sarcoma seemed to be putting a lot of pressure on him, causing the skinny cultivator to pant heavily. Every so often, he would open his mouth, and a vortex would appear in the air. Hundreds of living beings would be sucked into the vortex and be devoured by him.

Because he ate too much at once, his mouth was filled with blood. However, his entire body emitted a ferocious aura. The more he ate, the harder he chewed.

The skinny cultivator on the second mountain was the second of the Three Spirits, the Earth Soul, Spirit Venerable Sun Execution!

Just the phenomenon of these two mountains caused the hearts of Xu Qing and the other two to tremble violently. Needless to say… the first mountain at the side!

The first mountain was surrounded by a black mist. One could only see the throne, but not the figure on it. However, there was something shockingly terrifying about it. The previous two mountains were completely incomparable!

It was as if this mountain was the true terror!

This was because the spirit in the mountain was the strongest soul of the Ghost Emperor Mountain, Heaven Soul!

Spirit Venerable Embryonic Light!
