Outside of Time [Webnovel]

Since ancient times, the offering ceremony of the human race had been divided into two parts.

One was to make offerings to the ancestor, and the other was to make offerings to the heavens.

Among them, ancestral worship, as the name suggested, naturally referred to Mystic Nether.

Although the Human Emperor didn’t make the offerings to Mystic Nether but Human Ancestor, it was understandable. Even though it had surprised everyone, it couldn’t be considered overstepping the bounds in the end.

As the Human Emperor, it was barely within the scope of etiquette for her to offer sacrifices to the Human Ancestor.

However, the heaven in the heaven worship couldn’t be changed by the Human Emperor.

This heaven, before the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether left, represented all the Immemorial Heavenly Dao in Wanggu.

After he left Wanggu, mandates came from beyond the heaven, and the heaven became the holy lands.

It wasn’t just the human race. All the races in the Wanggu Continent that didn’t have gods were under the mandates from beyond heaven.

Their offerings to heaven were to pay respects to holy lands with similar bloodlines.

If they didn’t worship, they would be considered a rebel. Such a race would often perish due to various accidents in the future.

Although holy lands rarely appeared in Wanggu and they were located beyond the heavens and were high and mighty, they could still sway the hearts of the Wanggu’s races through some special means.

Therefore, the heaven worship done by the past human emperors was all done toward the holy lands.

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm The empress seemed to be no exception.

She stood on the altar, her tall and straight figure like a tall mountain, as though she could become a world that protected all living beings.

Fortune surrounded her. She was dressed in the imperial robe and a crown condensed from fortune.

With a confident and composed demeanor, her sharp eyes seemed capable of piercing through the sky, gazing into the holy lands above the sky.

Her well-defined face revealed incomparable dresolve at this moment.

When the ministers saw this scene, they couldn’t calm down. For them, the events of this day felt like they had lived through half a lifetime.

What happened today was too subversive.

Moreover, all of them had a faint feeling that this ceremony was only the beginning.

The next scenes would probably cause an even greater storm.

As for what the storm would be, they couldn’t guess. This was because no one could guess the thoughts of this empress over the years.

Only she knew how much she and Mystic War loved and hated each other. How she ascended to the throne, the hardships and tribulations she endured along the way, perhaps only she herself knew.

But what everyone could see was that she had clearly never lowered her head to fate.

She had used her wisdom and courage to write a legend that belonged to her in the human race over the years.

Although she was a woman and didn’t have the bloodline of the imperial family, all the nobles and ministers inside and outside the Ancient Sovereign Planet were convinced in their hearts.

Hence, at this moment, the outside world of the Ancient Sovereign Planet was completely silent.

Xu Qing also had many thoughts. He recalled everything from before. Clearly, his actions were also within the scope of this empress.

‘Perhaps she already knew my goal on the first day I arrived in the Imperial City.’

Xu Qing mumbled inwardly.

Time slowly passed breath by breath. The instant the 49th breath arrived, the old eunuch beside the Human Emperor suddenly looked up, his eyes gleaming with sharpness, his expression solemn.

“The offering to heaven is the prosperity of the human race.”

“First offering… human race’s battle flag!”

As soon as she said this, the world churned. The fog formed by fortune in the sky bloomed like a flower and rolled in all directions. At the same time, streams of blood light soared into the sky from the Ancient Sovereign Planet.

One after another.

A total of 49 blood lights gathered at one point in the sky. There, it was as though the world had been split open, tearing through the void and fate, luring out a large flag that had been nurtured in time.

The flag spread out, covering the sky and transforming into the sky. It danced like waves and had a peerless aura!

This caused the ground to darken, but lumps of fire of life were forming on the Ancient Sovereign Planet, outside the Ancient Sovereign Planet, and in the Imperial Capital.

From every human!

This was because this flag was the human race’s battle flag!

It represented the will of the human race, the battle intent of the race, and the dignity of all humans.

Even though this flag wasn’t the oldest one, its meaning was still incomparable.

As for the oldest mortal battle flag, it was forged by the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether, consisting of one main banner and 360 subordinate ones, which once accompanied him when he unified Wanggu.

When the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether left Wanggu, he took the battle flag with him.

Hence, at that time, the human race decided to use countless heavenly and earthly treasures to forge a new set of human battle flag.

This battle flag post-Mystic Nether Era had accompanied the Human Emperor Eastern Triumph on the battlefield and absorbed the blood of countless nonhumans.

When the Human Emperor Eastern Triumph was defeated, although the main banner didn’t fall, too many of the subordinate banners were broken, scattered all over the Wanggu.

Even though it was incomplete, it still possessed a certain level of might.

Some of these broken banners dissipated into the world, some were kept by other races, and some were obtained by human cultivators. It was too difficult to gather them all back.

For the human race, rather than expending effort to collect them, it was better to forge them again.

Hence, after the attempt to collect them failed, the human race gave up.

After that, it was reforged and appeared in the hands of the other mortal emperors in every major battle.

For countless years, this flag had become the symbol of the mortal race.

It was filled with the blood of the nonhumans. The moment it was displayed, blood qi rose in this world. At the same time, the will of the mortal nation instantly erupted.
