Chapter 1246 The Outsider
"What's wrong?" Zhang Heng asked, looking at the big yellow dog.
The big yellow dog sniffed around, his expression grave. "Rusty smell. There are other people inside."
Zhang Heng looked at Ye Qing.
Ye Qing rapidly expanded his mental power, but at that moment, he discovered that his mental power was unable to penetrate it!
"This place can shield me from my mental power!" Ye Qing exclaimed, taking a deep breath.
The temple looked dilapidated, but its gate was tightly shut.
“This rusty smell!” the big yellow dog said. “It’s very likely due to the ‘Rust’ property.”
"What kind of characteristic is this?" Ye Qing asked.
“It’s a rare characteristic, and it’s extremely strange and terrifying!” Long Rui said solemnly from the side, “This characteristic can rust everything, including people. Once a person is tainted by this characteristic and cannot be cured, their entire body will rust rapidly and eventually turn into a pile of rust. This is the strongest level among rare characteristics, and it’s not much different from the single characteristic of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.”
"Then what should we do?" Ye Qing asked.
"Squeak!"
Just then, the door in front of Ye Qing and the others was suddenly opened!
As the gate opened, a voice rang out from inside the temple: "Gentlemen, since you're all here, why not come in and chat for a bit?"
Just then, a voice rang out.
As the sound rang out, Ye Qing clearly saw that at the end of the temple, there was a bonfire, and around the bonfire sat three figures, two women and one man!
Both women exuded the aura of peak Domain Lords. One was dressed in white, and the other in a blue robe, their attire bearing a certain resemblance to ancient costumes from Earth.
The man was dressed in black, holding a folding fan. He looked to be about thirty years old, but his eyes were extremely deep, giving people a feeling of vastness and abyss.
"A super expert!" Ye Qing's heart skipped a beat.
He could immediately sense that this person was definitely above the level of a saint.
He was smiling as he looked at Ye Qing and the others.
The big yellow dog's pupils contracted slightly.
The group also sized up Ye Qing and his companions.
Ye Qing and the others' clothing was completely different from theirs, especially the members of the Qi Observation Clan, whose clothing had a technological feel to it.
Ye Qing, on the other hand, wore normal Earth clothing, as he was used to dressing like that.
Upon seeing Ye Qing and his companions' attire, the three inside exchanged a slight glance. The man asked with interest, "Are you all from Nanli?"
"Nan Li!" Ye Qing's heart skipped a beat; he had never heard of this name before!
"An outsider!" Ye Qing's heart skipped a beat.
Without a doubt, this person is most likely the outsider the peddler was talking about, and not from Ye Qing's universe.
Before Ye Qing and the others could speak, the big yellow dog hurriedly said, "I didn't expect to run into someone in this place. May I ask where you come from?"
The big yellow dog exuded a restrained aura, appearing calm and composed, giving off an air of superiority.
The man seemed unable to ascertain the big yellow dog's background, but given its ability to speak human language and its unfathomable aura, he estimated that the big yellow dog was at least on the same level as him.
He smiled slightly, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "The three of us are from Jiangyao, Xuan Shen Sect!"
"So you're fellow Daoists from the Xuan Shen Sect!" the big yellow dog said, giving Ye Qing and the others a wink before walking into the courtyard.
Ye Qingxin understood; he knew that for the rest of the night, they would have to pretend to be from the same place as these three people.
It was getting dark, and they had nowhere else to go!
The group entered the courtyard.
The three people moved aside, and then Ye Qing and the others sat down around the fire.
The others were a little uneasy, but these were people who had been around in the Chaotic Star Sea, so their acting was naturally quite natural. They acted neither servile nor arrogant, and after sitting down, they didn't say a word!
With experts like the big yellow dog and the man in black exchanging words, Ye Qing and his companions naturally had no right to interrupt.
The big yellow dog lay down on the ground and said, "You've all had a hard day, so hurry up and get some rest. We still have to go to other places to train tomorrow!"
At this point, the big yellow dog grumbled, "The nights here are truly a headache!"
“Yes!” the man in black said, “There are some capable people in that universe. Although they were ultimately defeated, they used this place to stop us from crossing over. However, this place has become an excellent training ground!”
This statement almost confirmed their status as outsiders.
The big yellow dog nodded and said, "That's true. Has anyone learned anything?"
“There are some, but not many. We just entered this place ourselves!” said the man in black.
Then he turned his gaze to Ye Qing and the others and said, "I see that you are all exceptionally talented individuals. This long night is long, and it is fate that we have met. Why don't you spar with each other?"
“That won’t be necessary!” said the big yellow dog. “This place is eerie, filled with a rusty smell.”
"This is a residual characteristic," the man in black said. "It should be someone with the rusting ability who passed away here, which caused this situation. With you and me here, the impact won't be too great."
At this point, his gaze fell on Ye Qing and he said, "This young man seems quite extraordinary. I see you have a restrained aura, so you must be cultivating both Dao and body?"
As he spoke, he smiled and said, "My disciple also follows the path of cultivating both body and Dao, and he happens to be in the early stage of Domain Lord. Why don't you two have a spar?"
The woman looked at Ye Qing, appearing eager to try.
"That's unnecessary!" the big yellow dog said nonchalantly. "A real spar might damage your disciple's confidence!"
"Oh?" The man in black narrowed his eyes and said, "My disciple has never lost to anyone of the same level since he was a child. Fellow Daoist, you are quite confident! How about we make a small bet?"
"What are we betting on?" The big yellow dog's eyes lit up slightly!
The man in black smiled slightly and said, "Fellow Daoist, please speak up, and I will make the match!"
The big yellow dog pondered for a moment and said, "Let's not bet too much when the two little guys are sparring!"
As it spoke, it slightly opened its mouth, and a deep-sea pearl flowed out from its mouth, saying, "I'll choose this one."
The man in black felt his heart skip a beat when he saw the pearl lost in the deep sea.
