Outside Of Time Chapter 1174 Although I'm Not a Quasi Immortal, I'll Be a Variant Immortal

Chapter 1174 Although I’m Not a Quasi Immortal, I’ll Be a Variant Immortal

Bai Xiaozhuo.

Purple Green Kingdom's original Fenghai County Governor.

Back when the Purple Green Kingdom was destroyed, he sacrificed the lives of an entire county to make the fragmented-face open Its eyes. This act allowed him to revive just before Crown Prince Purple Green's reincarnation, allowing him to continue his loyalty.

Later on, in front of the Ancient Spirit Emperor, he was about to be devoured. However, Crown Prince Purple Green arrived and took away Bai Xiaozhuo's time from the Ancient Spirit Emperor.

Xu Qing's gaze lowered slightly.

Since the matter of Crown Prince Purple Green being the State Preceptor had already appeared, it didn't seem impossible for Bai Xiaozhuo to revive and become a school head of the Imperial Academy's Divine Fusion School.

Although this connection was a little far-fetched and Xu Qing wasn't sure if his guess was correct…

The divine fusion technique reminded Xu Qing of the Shengyun father and son.

As for the specific truth, Xu Qing was only a newcomer and didn't have any other information to make a deeper judgment. Hence, Xu Qing calmly turned and left, walking into the crowd of students.

The same uniform, the same mask, and the change in his aura caused him to quickly disappear in the sea of people.

The school head of the Divine Fusion School stopped in his tracks and turned his head slightly to look at the crowd outside. A hint of contemplation appeared in the depths of his eyes.

He sensed a gaze that was different from others just now. However, the special structure of the Imperial Academy isolated everything and he couldn't sense the specific person.

Hence, after some thought, he kept this matter in his heart and walked to the top of the white tower.

As for Xu Qing, after he left the white tower of the Divine Fusion School, he continued to observe in the Imperial Academy. This was his habit.

While observing, he also stepped into different white towers many times to browse the information inside.

The more he observed the system here, the more Xu Qing respected this Imperial Academy.

There was too much knowledge here which would be very hard to obtain or steal in the outside world.

But here, there was no sect system. Any knowledge could be obtained easily. In fact, Xu Qing even saw some secret techniques of some sects in Fenghai County in a white tower called the Myriad Arts School.

There was also a school of thought that studied Taboo magic treasures, focusing on the method of crafting magic treasures in batches through the power of G.o.ds.

Despite the immense difficulty in the process, it must be said that their ideas are quite innovative.

"Magic treasures are formed from peculiar changes after being invaded by anomalous substances. They are a rare event, so there aren't many of them. However, through our school's research, we have discovered that this process can be artificially arranged!"

Xu Qing's interest was piqued. He took a look and fell into deep thought.

Time slowly pa.s.sed as Xu Qing continued to study various information. Soon, it was late at night.

Although there were still people in the Imperial Academy, they were clearly much fewer than during the day. Xu Qing visited dozens of schools of thought today, and was satisfied.

He felt that he had gained a lot today and his knowledge had increased greatly.

"This is a good place!"

Before he left, Xu Qing glanced at the countless white towers in the Imperial Academy and determination appeared in his eyes. He decided he would visit all these white towers in the coming days.

Just like that, half a month pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.

In this half a month, Xu Qing was completely immersed in studying. Every day, other than returning to the residence to cultivate at night, he spent all his time and energy in the Imperial Academy..

Among the thousands of schools of thought, he had already visited more than a thousand.

He was like a sponge that had been thrown into the sea, continuously absorbing all kinds of knowledge.

As he studied, his mindset and perspectives on cultivation arts underwent fundamental changes. In the sparks generated from the collision of human ideologies, he began to develop new ideas about his path of cultivation.

This was information that would be impossible to obtain in Fenghai County.

Even if someone told him, without contemplation, exploration, and the collision of ideas, it would still be difficult for him to integrate them into his mind and spirit.

The most important thing was that he needed to acc.u.mulate enough knowledge to have a comprehensive grasp of all the cultivation arts that the human race had developed after the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether left.

Only then could he be said to be standing on the shoulders of giants, gazing into the distant road, and leaping in thought.

"It seems that the vast majority of schools of thought are pursuing a… path of breakthrough!"

At that moment, Xu Qing was in the white tower of the Myriad Arts School. He held a jade slip that introduced ancient cultivation arts and revealed a contemplative expression. At the same time, a voice rang out from behind him.

"Xuan Leizi, we meet again."

Xu Qing turned his head and looked at a student walking over from behind.

Although this place concealed the aura, the frequent encounters among people within the academy allowed cultivators to remember traces, thereby developing a sense of recognition for new ident.i.ties.

This was the case for the person who walked over.

"Senior Brother Chenyun," Xu Qing greeted politely.

The person who came was the first friend he got to know in the Myriad Arts School. In the past half a month, he had come here many times, and the two of them had gradually started talking, from mere nods at the beginning to full-fledged conversations now. It could be said that this friend was the person with whom Xu Qing conversed the most in the academy.

The two of them had exchanged their respective names. However, they knew that this was just a code name in Imperial Academy.

"Are you looking at the ancient arts?" Chenyun walked up to Xu Qing and glanced at the jade slip in Xu Qing's hand before smiling.

Xu Qing nodded.

"I've been thinking, it seems like many schools are contemplating breakthroughs and changes."

"Your words. .h.i.t the nail on the head. In fact, that's precisely why the Imperial Academy was established against all odds by the Emperor." Chenyun had long noticed that the young man before him, Xuan Leizi, was a newcomer to the academy.

Although such people didn't appear every day, there were dozens of them every month. As for their ident.i.ties, there was no need to investigate.

"The cultivation path of the human race has actually been broken. It can even be said that the cultivation path of all races has been broken the moment the G.o.d's fragmented-face arrived."

Chenyun's voice carried a hint of emotion.

"What's broken is the method to reach the Ruler realm."

"Because the Heavenly Dao were affected, anomalous substances appeared in the world. To mortals, it's like poison. To low-level cultivators, it's a fate worse than death. To high-

level cultivators, it's a path cut off."

"Unless you possess an ancient bloodline; if so, you can forcefully continue forward and break through the Soul Acc.u.mulation realm to reach the Ruler realm."

"However, that's also the limit."

"It's impossible to break through to the Great Emperor Realm."

"Therefore, the various sects gathered the wisdom of generations and wanted to combine it with the current state to create a path that could lead to the Ruler realm. Those with ambitions are even trying to make a theoretical path to the Great Emperor realm."

"The Divine Fusion School is the representative of it. Many people have seen hope in its doctrine. This is also the reason why although this school has only been established for a short period of time, it is now the number one school in Imperial Academy."

"But I don't agree with them."

Chenyun shook his head.

"What was the ancient path in the past?" Xu Qing asked. He hadn't seen any similar books in the Myriad Arts Tower.

"Summer Immortal."

Chenyun glanced at Xu Qing. After some thought, he continued.

"The ancient path isn't advocated in the Myriad Arts School, so if you want to understand it, you can make a trip to the Variant Immortal School. That school… was the number one school when Imperial Academy was first established. However, later on, because its ideals were unrealistic, it slowly became desolate."

Xu Qing nodded when he heard this. He cupped his hands and bade farewell, preparing to find the Variant Immortal School.

After he left, in the white tower of the Myriad Arts School, a student who was familiar with Chenyun stepped forward curiously. He gazed at Xu Qing's departing back and spoke in a low voice.

"Senior Brother Chenyun, what's the background of this Xuan Leizi? I think you've talked to him more than usual."

A soft laugh rang out from under Chenyun's mask as he patted the shoulder of the student beside him.

"There should be a big shot among the students who came during this period of time. Regardless of whether it's him or not, it's always right to befriend people."

The student beside Chenyun fell into deep thought.

At that moment, as Xu Qing searched for the Variant Immortal School, he was also pondering about Chenyun's words. As for why the other party told himself so many things, in reality, after Chenyun took the initiative to greet him for the third time, he had made a judgment in his heart.

After all, everyone in the Imperial Capital knew that he had obtained the qualifications to enter the Imperial Academy. Anyone who was thoughtful could guess that he would come to Imperial Academy during this period of time.

"He seems like a thoughtful and prudent person, and his status should be quite significant."

Xu Qing turned his head and glanced at the white structure of the Myriad Arts School before walking into the crowd. Two hours later, he saw a white tower to the east of the Imperial Academy.

From the outside, this tower was no different from the other white towers. However, the emptiness in the surroundings seemed very bleak compared to the liveliness in other places. Even the tower gazed dilapidated.

Xu Qing's gaze swept over in surprise. This could be considered the most down-and-out school he had seen in this half a month. When he entered the white tower, he only saw three students sitting there lazily.

They didn't even glance at him.

In the Variant Immortal School's white tower, although there were many jade slips, they were very scattered. There were even some that were piled up in a corner.

Even the school head was present.

One had to know that unless one encountered the school heads by chance, they rarely saw them. They all lived at the top of the white structure but here…

The school head in the scholarly robe was squatting in front of a pile of jade slips and flipping through them. It was unknown what he was looking for.

Xu Qing silently wandered in and surveyed his surroundings. He couldn't help but ask.

"May I ask if there's any records about the ancient path's Summer Immortal?"

"What's the use of looking at that thing? Leave quickly. We're not used to having another person suddenly."

An impatient voice rang out from the middle of the three lazy students.

Xu Qing frowned. When his gaze swept over, a jade slip was thrown over by the school head who was searching for something.

"There's no introduction about the Summer Immortal here, only some speculations from later generations. If you want to take a look, go ahead, but leave quickly. This old man is also not used to having a new person around."

Xu Qing caught it and didn't say anything as he focused on checking.

This jade slip indeed didn't introduce the Summer Immortal. The guesses of the later generations about the Summer Immortal were also very general. Only one thing was relatively clear.

"The thought of the Summer Immortal can transform into an immortal body."

"This is a theory. The route to immortality has been cut off and the orthodox method can't be continued. After the ruler, there will be no more Quasi-Immortals. However, unorthodox ways might not be impossible."

"I have a plan: refining the soul into threads, weaving a divine body in the sea of consciousness, controlling it with the soul, and relying on the thoughts as the foundation. When the divine body takes shape, it may possess the power of reference from the same source."

"The existence of the mind and spirit can also serve as nourishment and lead to a return to immortality!"

"If this succeeds, although I won't be a Quasi Immortal, I will be a Variant Immortal!"
