Outside Of Time - Chapter 1646

Chapter 1646: Marriage Contract, Sixteen Characters!
Editor: Atlas Studios

Back then, Nine Shores accepted the other betrothal gifts but he passed this blank jade token that could determine the ownership of the Immortal Palace’s treasures to Xu Qing.

After all, he was going to marry off his daughter. Moreover, with his character, he wouldn’t covet the belongings of his close friend’s family.

Hence, this blank jade token became Xu Qing’s trump card now.

And originally… for Xu Qing, whether or not to use this jade token, which could determine the ownership of the Immortal Palace’s treasures, didn’t really matter.

Previously, when he chose to fight the Fourth True Monarch near the sword furnace, his first goal wasn’t to make those two swords recognize him as their master.

His fundamental goal was to make use of the battle with the Fourth True Monarch to bring enough pressure to the two swords in the sword furnace under the collision of order and change.

Under this pressure, Qianjun and Piyi would have almost no other choice.

There was only one path in front of them. If they didn’t take this opportunity to emerge, they would remain in a passive state.

If Star Ring won, then if they wanted to succeed in the future, they would need Star Ring’s permission. After all, suppressing them was also an act of order.

If the Young Lord won… the first thing he said when he came was that he wanted them to recognize him as their master. This was a huge blow to Qianjun and Piyi.

This way, they had no choice.

They could only risk everything and take this opportunity to catalyze their bodies to appear in advance.

This was to break through the situation.

Only then would they have a chance of survival.

This was what Xu Qing wanted.

This was an open scheme.

According to his plan, as long as these two swords were born in advance, they would form space-time waves. This would be beneficial to his subsequent moves.

However… the two swords were too excited when they left.

Hence, Xu Qing felt that if he made them recognize him as their master, the waves in history would be even greater. It was also good.

Hence, as the divine sense of the two excited swords echoed and their consciousness fluctuated, trying to leave the fourth realm…

Xu Qing took out the blank jade token.

At this moment, he raised his right hand and waved.

The jade token rose into the air.

Brilliant light shone, auspicious rays beamed, and boundless radiance filled the air.

Hovering in the sky for a moment, Xu Qing’s divine sense surged forth at the critical instant, just as Qianjun and Piyi’s consciousnesses were about to depart… he imprinted words within the jade token.

“With the emergence of these immortal swords, I hereby bestow upon them their names: one shall be called Qianjun, and the other Piyi… they shall serve as my personal swords!”

As soon as his divine sense spread, the world rumbled.

It was as though the sound of the Great Dao was echoing, as though the laws of heaven and earth were circulating and a decree was forming!

These imprinted words could be said to be a fatal blow!

Not only did it decide the ownership of these two swords, but it also gave them names…

Moreover, the names were Qianjun and Piyi. This way, it could form an extremely intense karma!

Under this karma, the two immortal swords that were shining in black and white in the sky instantly trembled. Countless immortal words instantly manifested and surrounded their sword bodies.

They were born in the Immortal Palace and were forged by the Immortal Palace. They were also born in the sword furnace. These two swords could be said to be items of the Immortal Palace from the inside out.

As such, under the immortal words on the blank jade token, they instantly formed an extremely dense connection with Xu Qing.

They couldn’t resist, couldn’t evade, couldn’t refuse!

Qianjun and Piyi, who could be considered artifact spirits, didn’t react at all.

They were still enjoying their success when Xu Qing’s attack arrived.

Hence, the moment Xu Qing imprinted the swords, Qian Jun and Piyi were completely stunned as the swords trembled.

At the next instant, a vast might erupted from the Immortal Palace and the immortal swords, directly surging into their consciousnesses…

The two’s divine senses stirred up monstrous waves.

This was because the force descending upon them was meant to seal the artifact spirit and make it recognize a master.

However, in their current state, they themselves had become the artifact spirits.

Hence, this seal that was originally used on artifact spirits naturally… landed on them.

It was also because of the names Xu Qing had given them… that not only could the karma of this token be used in this space-time, but there was also a high chance that it would always exist in the outside world!

As such, the shock in Qianjun and Piyi’s mind surpassed everything. They only felt thunder rumbling in their minds.

This was extreme joy turning into sorrow!

“This… this…”

“About this… I…”

Their actions of wanting to leave the fourth realm were forcefully interrupted.

The implication of karma, the ownership of the master, and the imprinting of the bestowed names…

They formed a pulling force that exceeded their resistance.

Hence, their consciousnesses couldn’t leave!

The two of them felt their hearts churning intensely. As a storm swept through their minds, Xu Qing lifted his left arm.

He waved his hand at the sky.

“Come.”

Immediately, the two black and white immortal swords that soared into the sky vibrated even more intensely, and the sound of sword hums rang out with cheers…

Immediately after, against the frantic efforts of Qianjun and Piyi, the two swords they inhabited suddenly reversed direction, swiftly twisting in mid-air as if they were leaping, and rushed straight towards Xu Qing!

They were extremely obedient.

The two people inside were on the brink of tears. They wanted to go crazy but they couldn’t do it.

This was because they could sense that in the depths of their consciousness, there was actually joy rising uncontrollably along with the swords.

At the same time, as the immortal swords were born in advance and Xu Qing forcefully imprinted them, making them recognize him as their master, the space-time waves instantly increased greatly!

The waves before were like waves on the sea, wave after wave. After they overlapped, they formed… an earth-shattering tsunami!

At that moment, the level of fluctuations in this spacetime was a tsunami!

The waves from heaven’s chosen Li, Gongsun Qingmu, the fox beauty, Zhong Chi, and now these two swords…

The tsunami instantly overflowed into the sky and continued to spin and churn on the viscous lake of space-time.

As for Xu Qing, his consciousness had already returned to his host body. At that moment, he was standing on the tsunami!

He could clearly sense that order was being suppressed!

Immediately after, as he waved his hand, two swords whistled over. After they surrounded his body, no matter how Qianjun or Piyi tried to stop the swords, it was useless.

They could only follow Xu Qing’s divine sense and activate the swords they were inhabiting, forming an extremely sharp peerless sword energy that headed straight for the reincarnation and boundary above!

An earth-shattering boom echoed.

The boundary and the cycle of reincarnation collapsed!

The cracking sound of order shattering echoed in the void.

The Fourth True Monarch’s body trembled and two streams of blood instantly flowed out of his eyes.

The sea of stars formed by the countless stars in his eyes collapsed and the square and circle inside also turned to dust.

More importantly, his Ordinance was wavering!

As for those two swords, their auras were still intense. After destroying the boundary and reincarnation, they soared into the sky. As the black and white colors alternated, they headed straight for the Fourth True Monarch.

Killing intent overflowed into the sky.

Under this helplessness and madness, Qianjun and Piyi inside decided to go all out and activated the swords with all their might.

This was because in their hearts, their anger toward Star Ring wasn’t small either.

The Fourth True Monarch’s expression changed dramatically, and he quickly retreated, his mind racing with countless thoughts, each one filled with intense anger directed at Xu Qing.

As these myriad thoughts converged, the Fourth True Monarch took a deep breath, suddenly raised his right hand, and pressed his index finger against his forehead!

As he raised his hand, a brilliant golden chain shimmered with radiant light, directly pulled from his brow.

This golden chain was not long, consisting of only ninety-nine links—just one short of a hundred.

Each link bore numerous markings, and every marking represented order.

At the moment of its appearance, the power of order was incredibly evident on the chain, resonating strongly with the consciousness of Star Ring.

This was because this golden chain didn’t belong to the Fourth True Monarch but Star Ring… the very foundation of his Ordinance!

Once this chain reached a hundred links, he would be able to break through the Ruler Realm and advance to the Quasi Immortal Realm.

This was his goal in this fourth realm.

However, at this moment, he had already thrown caution to the wind. The instant he took out his Ordinance, 13 coffins appeared around him.

These coffins were of different sizes and were made of different materials. However, the aura of order on them was all dense.

The instant they appeared, the color of the world changed.

They were the Ordinance corpses that the Fourth True Monarch had refined after killing all his competitors.

Originally, with Star Ring’s ability, he could only use three of them. However, it was very clear that the power of three corpses couldn’t shake the immortal swords, let alone Xu Qing, who was in the space-time tsunami.

Hence, he used his Ordinance foundation to forcefully control it. He wanted to attempt to reverse everything!

As he performed a series of hand seals, his expression distorted. The golden chain emitted golden light that coiled around the 13 coffins and fused into them.

At the next instant, the 13 coffins trembled in unison.

Although the lids of the coffins didn’t open, the sound of thunder rang out from the 13 coffins at the same time.

Booming sounds and popping sounds spread in all directions.

There were also 13 different voices that rumbled out from the coffin in a deep voice. They gathered together and formed a sentence that surpassed the heavenly sound!

“Judgment of Order, a thousand years of treachery, digging towards the Yellow Springs, execution on the spot!”

These fifteen characters1, each one transformed into a judgment of order, took the shape of an ancient stone tablet and crashed towards Xu Qing who was standing on the space-time tsunami.

Xu Qing lifted his head. His expression was as calm as ever, but his eyes revealed unprecedented sharpness.

“The space-time waves turned into a tsunami. It’s enough to cover the words. In that case… it should end.”

The instant the calm voice rang out from Xu Qing’s mouth, a golden iron plate flew out of Xu Qing’s arms and floated in front of him.

The moment it appeared, the world fell silent. Space-time didn’t move and the waves stopped. Everything was still.

Only auspicious signs fluctuated inside and only auspicious signs rose!

This item was the marriage contract.

It was personally forged by Aurora Immortal Lord and condensed his will, his thoughts, and his blessings.

It contained all the beauty he wanted to give his son.

The words inside were also written by him personally!

It represented his will!

“Two families unite in marriage, a covenant formed in one hall. From this day forth, a beautiful bond is established, promising to be lifelong partners, together until the end of time. Let the vows be made before the eternal sea and withstanding the decay of stone. We seek each other as mates, to foresee a future of prosperity, may you thrive and shine.

With this white-haired promise inscribed on the fine paper, we aim to make clear the pact of red leaves1. Thus, this agreement is established, as proof of our commitment.”

At that moment, Xu Qing lifted his hand and stirred up the power of space-time that had finally gathered into a tsunami, concealing the vast majority of these words, making them blurry. However, there were 16 characters1 that were incomparably clear.

When those 16 characters were grouped together, they formed a sentence.

“Establish the contract, connect the prior fate; you shall last forever, fine leaves rot.

Thus, this serves as proof.”

Xu Qing lifted his hand and pointed at the Fourth True Monarch!

The 16 characters of the marriage contract shone monstrously and a vast might surged along with the space-time tsunami!

In an instant, the predestined fate of Star Ring being able to inhabit the Fourth True Monarch ended!

His consciousness was withering!

It was like a fine leaf was rotting!

Star Ring’s expression changed drastically!
