Outside Of Time Chapter 1545: No Regret, No Guilt, No Remorse

Chapter 1545: No Regret, No Guilt, No Remorse

Translator: Atlas Studios I Editor: Atlas Studios

The length of life was unpredictable for many people.

Especially in this cruel world, perhaps an accident or a single act of violence could end it.

Even someone as powerful as a G.o.d might die. Even the Sword Holding Great Emperor eventually came to an end.

But… judging whether a life was brilliant, length was never the most important criterion.

Just like how the world was the guest house of all living beings, and time was merely a pa.s.serby from ancient to present.

The most important aspect had always been the breadth of life experiences.

It was about how one chose to walk the path of their own life.

This was the only freedom that could be grasped by all beings.

Just like the Sword Holding Great Emperor, who had protected humanity for countless years. Even though the outcome could not be changed, the breadth of his life had already spread into the memories of every member of the human race.

This was what grandeur truly was.

This was what greatness truly meant.

And today, in the final gleam of the life flame, he finally let go of everything, feeling a sense of rebirth, experiencing a long-lost ease and boundless freedom.

The sparks of life, colliding within his journey, became even more brilliant.

Before him, scenes from years past, full of his youthful vigor, seemed to reappear.

“Xia’er, Xu Qing, this old man won’t tell you what your future lives should be like…”

“However, as someone who has experienced it before, I want to share with you a realization of mine.”

Outside the Demon Feather Holy Land, in the world of the w.a.n.ggu, the Sword Holding Great Emperor walked in front and sighed with emotion at the Empress and Xu Qing behind him.

“No regrets, no guilt, no remorse.”

The Sword Holding Great Emperor spoke softly.

“All the experiences of this life, having been pursued with all my effort, can be considered without regret, regardless of the outcome.”

“If one can remain true to their own heart through everything encountered in life, then no matter how the path unfolds, if one’s own light s.h.i.+nes, this life can be deemed without guilt.

“If these two points can be achieved, then the people one meets and the choices one makes can be considered without remorse.”

“By living these six words, this life becomes clear, and it is not in vain to have lived it.”

The Sword Holding Great Emperor’s voice echoed through the world.

When it landed in the ears of the Empress and Xu Qing, it transformed into waves that didn’t dissipate for a long time.

The Great Emperor had indeed lived by these six words.

He had done his best to protect the human race for tens of thousands of years, so he had no regrets about the future.

In this life, he had remained true to his own heart in all circ.u.mstances, and the light within him had never been tainted. It shone brightly on the path he walked, making him free of guilt towards anyone.

Regarding the choices of life, he had conveyed them to the Empress and Xu Qing through his words and actions.

He had no remorse.

At that moment, laughter echoed through the world.

It also spread to the three holy lands above the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race that were fighting against the three G.o.ds.

There were a total of sixteen black-level holy lands that had descended upon w.a.n.ggu. There were four in each direction.

Among them, in the eastern part of w.a.n.ggu, one of these four black-level holy lands landed above the human race. The other three… were all in the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race’s territory.

At this moment, the three holy lands shook in unison.

The expressions of the three G.o.ds changed. They didn’t hesitate to immediately retreat with their race, giving a path to the three holy lands.

In the three holy lands, the hearts of the Great emperors rumbled. Their expressions were unprecedentedly solemn as they instinctively looked over…

They saw the Empress, Xu Qing, and the tall figure in front of them who was holding a longsword and wearing a wide robe.

In their eyes, the aura of death on this old man’s body was extremely dense. However, the light emitted by his soul couldn’t be drowned by the aura of death. It shone on his body and rose in the entire w.a.n.ggu, illuminating the sky.

“Summer Immortal!!”

The hearts of the Great Emperors of the three holy lands rumbled with shock and their faces turned extremely pale.

They weren’t the only ones shocked. Even the holy lands they were in shook. As lightning exploded in the minds of countless cultivators from the holy lands, the Sword Holding Great Emperor raised the sword in his hand and casually waved it forward.

In his youth, his dream while holding the sword was to traverse the world with joy, slaying demons and eliminating evil.

After becoming a Great Emperor, he, who was in his prime, journeyed across the heavens with his sword, cutting down G.o.ds and eradicating calamities, leaving his mark on the world with just one sword and himself.

In his old age, whenever he reflected on his life, the most vivid memories were still from that period.

At this moment, as he casually swung his sword, it seemed to overlap with his past self, as if the scenes from his memories were blending with the present world.

So, with this swing, he moved with grace, with freedom, and with a sense of liberation.

With this slash, the sword light replaced the heavenly light in the sky. The sword aura became the void of this world and the sword intent transformed into heaven’s will.

With an incomparably domineering aura, it could shatter the heavens, collapse the earth, and annihilate all enemies!

It landed on the holy land closest to him.

This holy land looked like a planet.

At that moment, a monstrous rumbling sound rang out, as though it was swept away by an irresistible storm. Under the gaze of the three G.o.ds, the shock of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race, Xu Qing and the Empress…

A loud explosion rang out in the planet-like holy land at the front, and a huge gully appeared on its surface. After that, this gully continued to sink. In the span of a few breaths, the entire holy land was penetrated by this gully.

It directly split into two from the middle!

The lives inside were destroyed by the sword light and everything inside was destroyed by the sword aura!

The holy land fell!

Countless vitality was swept up by the sword intent from the falling holy land and headed straight for the Sword Holding Great Emperor, surging into his body… It wasn’t to suppress the death aura but to become nutrients that pushed his combat strength.

Without the shackles of the star ring, not only did the Sword Holding Great Emperor recover to the peak of his combat strength, but he also had the ability to erupt to a higher level.

Even though this eruption was short-lived.

However… hearing the Dao in the morning, and dying in the evening was acceptable!

Gasps rang out in all directions, and the three Great Emperors’ faces were extremely pale. They immediately retreated, giving up everything.

Although they were Great Emperors, they were completely unable to resist the might of a Summer Immortal.

The Sword Holding Great Emperor didn’t even glance at the three of them. Instead, he calmly spoke.

“Xia’er, Xu Qing, as my successors, I only gave you my cultivation and the Emperor Sword. I haven’t had the time to teach you divine techniques of the sword.”

“Today, I’ll teach you.”

“My entire life’s Dao is about the sword.”

“In this life, I created sword techniques at different times, totaling five forms.”

“The first form is called… Earth Depository.”

As the Sword Holding Great Emperor spoke, he raised his right hand and pressed down slightly at the remaining two holy lands in front of him.

Immediately, the two holy lands rumbled and the distance between them swayed.

The color of the sky changed and the ground seemed to be stirred, emitting m.u.f.fled rumbling sounds.

This rumbling sound shocked the mind.

The Sword Holding Great Emperor’s voice still echoed amidst the rumbling of the ground.

“Earth Depository is a sword technique I created to slay a ruthless murderer skilled in earth Dao. This technique primarily stimulates the earth’s energy, using sword intent to replace earth intent, transforming earth energy into sword energy.”

“After gathering, condense it into an earth sword!”

In his detailed explanation, Xu Qing and the Empress saw that amidst the continuous tremors of the two holy lands, wisps of smoke began to rise. This smoke was the earth energy spoken of by the Sword Holding Great Emperor.

Increasingly, in an instant, the land of the two holy places cracked open as if all its nutrients had been drawn out, transforming into countless wisps of smoke. These wisps swirled in the high sky, rapidly converging with each other…

It transformed into a shocking sword!

The moment this sword appeared, not only did the holy lands shake, but even the ground of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race below stirred like the sea.

It was as though they were being pulled.

After that… the large sword formed by the earth energy landed!

It was as easy as crus.h.i.+ng dry weeds!

In everyone’s eyes, the two holy lands directly collapsed. The ground turned into ashes and even all living beings in the holy lands couldn’t escape or stop it.

In an instant, their bodies and souls were destroyed.

Even the holy lands themselves were destroyed by this sword and turned into nothingness.

Countless vitality was swept up and gushed into the Sword Holding Great Emperor’s body. His aura soared again.

He raised his hand and pointed. Immediately, the Earth Depository Sword scattered on its own at this moment, transforming into countless sharp sword energy that swept up the aura of the ground and headed straight for the three fleeing Great Emperors.

No matter how the three Great Emperors struggled, it was useless.

The absolute difference in strength made death inevitable.

When the sword energy pa.s.sed, the three Great Emperors were dead!

Their everything became nutrients for the Sword Holding Great Emperor. After they fused into his body, his combat strength erupted explosively.

The wind and clouds surged violently.

Flame Moon was silent. Even the three G.o.ds lowered Their heads.

The figure of the Sword Holding Great Emperor evoked Their memories as well.

When the fragmented-face descended and Mystic Nether left, it was the bloodiest, cruelest, and darkest period in the entire w.a.n.ggu.

With G.o.ds everywhere, enslavement and killing were the norm.

All the races had to either lower their heads or be destroyed.

The Sword Holding Great Emperor was the only remaining Great Emperor in w.a.n.ggu back then. The human race was still the number one race.

Hence, the human race attracted the gazes of many G.o.ds.

Thus, in those years, the scenes of the Sword Holding Great Emperor battling all the G.o.ds who sought to enslave the human race became a focal point for the gaze of countless races.

This lasted until he fell in the battle with the G.o.ds from the central region of w.a.n.ggu.

His main body had fallen and only his avatar existed.

However, these repeated battles ultimately caused the central region’s thoughts of enslaving the human race to dissipate. This caused many G.o.ds to have no choice but to put away Their greed.

It was as though as long as the Great Emperor existed, this thought wouldn’t surface again.

This allowed the human race to survive the initial darkness.

The three G.o.ds controlled the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race long after this event.

At that time, the main body of the Sword Holding Great Emperor had already died. Only his avatar was guarding the human capital, threatening the G.o.ds with the power of a single sword slash.

Hence, there were subsequent events.

Now, looking at the figure of the Sword Holding Great Emperor, the three G.o.ds couldn’t help but have complicated thoughts.

Similar thoughts didn’t just surface in the hearts of the three G.o.ds. The Sword Holding Great Emperor’s attack attracted the attention of the G.o.ds in the entire w.a.n.ggu just like back then.

This was especially so for the central part of the w.a.n.ggu, the only place where no holy lands had descended. At this moment, a gaze was looking toward the east.

At the same time, on the outer sea, Jade Flowing Dust sat on a lone boat and looked at the void in the distance. His expression was filled with emotions.

“Others might not know, but according to my story, this guy chose to stay in w.a.n.ggu most likely because he had a dream of showing off since he was young.”

“Therefore, he’s a f*cking poser!”

“It was like that back then, and now, on the verge of death, it is clear he feels he hadn’t shown off enough in this life, so he is aiming for a grand finale!”

Jade Flowing Dust felt a pang of envy and frustration, then… let out a soft sigh.
