The figure in the long river
Chapter 600 The figure in the long river
The long river of time is endless.
Numerous pictures that have happened in the past whizzed past Jiangnan like a revolving lantern.
In this endless torrent of time, Jiangnan's divine sense is like a crumbling boat in the frenzied ocean, fluctuating with the tide.
Fortunately, he was accompanied by a green lantern, and the faint light illuminated the way ahead, opening up a passage to protect the spirit, stick to his sanity, and protect his safety.
At this moment, Jiang Nan finally understood why the many immortal Taoist ancestors showed such horror when he told them to travel through time.
——The horror in the long river of time is hard for those who have not experienced it to understand!
I'm afraid that even the immortal Taoist ancestor at the peak of his heyday would step into it, and he would be washed away by the torrent of time!Even self-protection can't be done, let alone a precise insertion into a certain era.
It can only be said that the mighty power of heaven and earth is enough to make the scalp of any realm feel numb at any time.
Time passes little by little.
Those things that happened before were reinterpreted in Jiangnan's eyes in a completely opposite direction.
Destruction and birth, birth and death, flowering and withering... everything, completely reversed.
I don't know how long it took, Jiangnan, who was staggering against the long river of time, finally saw a majestic scene in the endless sea of burials!
——The vast and boundless fairyland world is divided into four different areas by the intersecting Burial Sea.
Two of them made Jiangnan feel extremely familiar.
It is the main road and the off road!
And what the other two are, needless to say!
"Jiangnan Jiangnan! Found it!"
Above the head, the green lantern flickered, and amidst the faint lights, Dongxian's surprised and anxious voice came, "We have come to the era when the Kunkan Second Dao still exists!"
Jiang Nan took a deep breath: "I know!"
Then, he looked forward, and saw countless incomparably prosperous scenes emerging in his perception.
The complete Four Dao of Immortal Earth appeared in front of his eyes!
"But we can't span too long—the farther and deeper you go in something like traveling against time, the easier it is to get lost."
Dong Xian's voice became a little more dignified, "Jiangnan, if the destruction of the Kunkan Second Path is used as the boundary point, how long ago do you want to go back to this boundary point?"
Jiang Nan pondered for a moment, "A year ago."
Dong Xian seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and asked, "Well... Actually, it can take a little longer."
Although the truth is this, the more time traveled, the more dangerous it is.
But compared with the tens of thousands of years that have passed before, the one year, ten years and 100 years at this time are actually not that important.
After all, if you have too many debts, you don’t have to worry about it, and if you have too many lice, you don’t itch.
"Why don't you think about it again?"
Dong Xian's voice was a bit worried: "One year is too much time to worry—not to mention that now you only have a ray of spiritual projection coming, and you will no longer be as powerful as before."
Her worries were not without reason.
After all, after Jiangnan came to Kunkan, it was just a fragile projection. Although he could use the body far in the future to display some magical powers, his power would definitely not be as good as before.
Not only that, but if you use too much force, it may cause the connection between the projection and the body to collapse, and you will be trapped in this era for this lifetime, and then be destroyed together with the Kunkan Second Dao.
Under such circumstances, it is too urgent to find the fragments of the blue lantern and go there within a year.
"One year is enough."
Jiang Nan shook his head slightly, and looked at the blue light above his head: "Actually, you didn't tell the truth before, did you?"
The green light shook, and let out a bewildered sigh.
"No, it should be said that you didn't tell all the risks—about my risks, you are not at all down; but about yours, Dongxian?"
Jiang Nan sighed, "It wasn't until I stepped into the long river of time that I realized that the greater the time span you cross, the greater the pressure and rejection you will bear—I'm afraid you have exhausted your best now, right?"
silence.
"Hmm...you found out?" Dong Xian's voice sounded a little guilty like a child who was found out for doing bad things.
"I said... no matter what, this blue lantern has stayed in my sea of consciousness for so many years. If I can't perceive this situation, then it can't be justified."
Jiang Nan sighed angrily and distressedly, with a firm voice: "So, just stop at the time of the year before the destruction of the Kunkan Second Dao—Dongxian, even if in the end I really succeeded in lighting the blue lantern, gradually Relieve the calamity, but if there is no you at that time, what's the point?"
So, the girl in the green lantern finally stopped being stubborn and said softly, "I...I understand."
As the voice fell, the flickering lights slowly stopped, becoming as still as a sculpture.
And with such changes, the long river of time, which was originally rolling forward like a raging river, also became still.
——Of course, Jiangnan knows that this is just an illusion. It is not the long river of time that stops, but themselves.
Then, between the lights, a ray of light differentiated and turned into a small path, and there was also a strange scene on the side.
——It is a huge world of incomparable stalwarts, the earth is boundless, the dome is like a cover, endless aura, immortal power and Tao exist together, the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, grass and trees are incomparably magnificent!
The only strange thing is that that side of the world is in a completely still state, as if it has been frozen and frozen.
"Jiangnan, let's go." Dongxian's voice came from the blue lantern.
In the long river of time, Jiangnan's spiritual sense seemed to be frozen, motionless.
"Jiangnan?" Dongxian urged.
The latter is a shock, come back to God!
"What's wrong with you?" Dong Xian noticed something was wrong with him and asked worriedly.
——It hasn't really reached that era yet, is there something wrong with Jiangnan's soul?
"No...it's fine."
Jiang Nan shook his head and took a deep breath, but he didn't rush into that world, but raised his head slightly, "Did you see it?"
"What?" The girl in the green lantern was a little puzzled.
Jiang Nan raised his hand, pointing further ahead, in the direction of the starting point of the incomparably distant river of time, "There...someone."
After the words fell, Dongxian in the green lantern felt a chill all over her body!
She looked in the direction of Jiangnan's finger through the faint light, but only saw a piece of chaos and the afterimage of time flowing.
— nothing!
Rather, this is as it should be.
As the traces left by the vicissitudes of the entire world, the long river of time is between illusion and reality, and it is a realm that no creature or existence can escape.
Stepping into it for a short time like Jiang Nan and Dong Xian, traveling through time, is already a shocking act against the sky!How could there be anyone stranded in the long river of time? !
"Hmm... I didn't see..." Dong Xian swallowed and replied.
At that moment, Jiang Nan's face became extremely ugly.
Because he really saw it.
In the long river of years that is still to go, there is really a figure, like a stroll in a garden, shuttling through the changes of time.
And it's not like him who has worked so hard and stepped on the long river of time with extreme caution like walking on thin ice, but really... a stroll in the garden!
——You said that this is not a taboo time domain, but the backyard of that person's house, and there is nothing wrong with it.
"What does he...or she look like?" Sensing Jiangnan's emotions, Dongxian asked softly.
"I don't know, I can't see clearly." Jiang Nan shook his head.
In his view, it was a human figure, obviously there was no cover on the body and face, but between the two of them, it seemed to be distorted by a strange force, making it hard for him to see clearly!
That figure came from the end of the incomparably long river of time, and it seemed that there was still something in both hands.
He walked briskly, occasionally bent down to watch the changes of the years around him and the passage of time, then stood up, bouncing and continuing to walk towards the future.
closer...closer...
As that person moved from the beginning of the long river of time to the end, from the future to the past, and in the process, his figure was getting closer and closer to the time node where Jiangnan and Dongxian were!
The rolling years seemed to have no effect on him at all.
As if he was completely detached from the time, his steps were brisk, and he passed the stiff Jiangnan!
"He... is walking towards us..." Jiang Nan murmured as if he was dreaming.
"To us?" Dongxian was startled.
"No, it's not towards us, it's towards the future of the time point before the destruction of the Kunkan Second Dao we selected..." Jiang Nan said again.
"What else did he do?" In the boundless river of time, Dongxian vigorously propped up her upper and lower eyelids, and widened her eyes, trying to capture the "figure" that Jiangnan mentioned.
But still, she can't see anything!
Even if Jiang Nan didn't say this, she would feel that the other party was lying to her.
"I don't know, it's like walking... wandering?" Jiang Nan replied.
But the next moment, his expression suddenly became terrified!It's like seeing something extremely absurd!
"Jiangnan? Jiangnan! What's wrong?" An anxious voice came from the blue lantern!
"I saw."
Jiang Nan's soul seemed to be stiff, his whole body was trembling, and he said in a daze:
"What is he holding in his hand... I can see clearly... He passed us again... He put the thing in his hand at a certain time point many years later..."
Just like a real-time narration, even though she couldn't see the "figure" that Jiangnan mentioned, Dongxian still made up a picture in her mind.
——In the howling and silent long river of time, an unobservable figure holds something in his hand, and walks briskly, walking towards the future along the track of time change.He transcended time, transcended years, transcended the whole world, wandering in the taboo realm where no one can set foot.
But in any other place, this is not a bizarre scene.
Unfortunately, it can't be replaced.
It is in this long river of time that even the "immortal" Jiangnan needs the assistance of Qingdeng to barely set foot on it, there appears an existence that ignores all rules and restrictions.
Enough to break all existing cognitions and axioms!It's no wonder that Jiangnan, who is used to seeing strong winds and waves, is so horrified!
"Jiangnan...Maybe, this is just something that happened in the past..." Dong Xian in the world of Qingdeng held her cheeks and weighed her words carefully: "Let's leave him alone, let's do business first, shall we..."
"Huh..." Jiang Nan took a deep breath, forced to suppress the shock and panic in his heart, and nodded slightly, "I'm going."
"En!" Dong Xian nodded, and finally added: "Be careful and come back safely!"
Jiang Nan waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the previously selected time node.
But when he just turned around, the barely calm expression on his face could no longer be suppressed, it was extremely gloomy.
Because Dongxian couldn't see it, Jiang Nan didn't want her to worry too much, so he didn't tell what he saw and heard.
——Just now, when the figure walked by, Jiang Nan saw it clearly.
I saw what "something" he was holding in his hand.
Speaking of which, those two things are not unfamiliar.
It is even better to say that it is too familiar.
In the left hand of the man was holding an illusory remnant soul; in the right hand of the man was holding a broken oil lamp.
The remnant soul is extremely weak, with its eyes closed, although it is almost translucent and illusory, but you can still see its appearance - about [-] years old, short hair, ordinary facial features, I think it was the kind of person who was thrown into the crowd when he was alive A type that cannot be found anywhere.
Moreover, in the remnant soul, there is no trace of practice, it is just the soul strength of a normal person.
Nothing odd.
So why does Jiangnan feel familiar?
Because... that remnant soul is himself!
In other words, it was him in the last life, who lived on that technologically advanced earth and had never traveled to the Shangyuan world!
And the oil lamp held by that figure's right hand was the broken blue lamp that Jiangnan saw when he woke up in the prison in Xunyang County!
For a long time, Jiangnan had a question.
About your own crossing.
From the memories of the predecessors in the Lotus Starfield, he knew that the difference between the world today and the earth at the time is not in space, but in time.The era of Jiangnan's previous life was countless years ago in this world!
Then, why Jiangnan, who was mediocre in his previous life, can travel through endless time after death and be reborn in this era?
In the past, Jiangnan always thought it was the credit of Qing Deng.
But later, he knew the essence of Qingdeng's existence—it was also a product of the future compared to Jiangnan in the previous life, a creation that distorted reality forged by Qian Tian's lineage.
So even if it wants to choose a master, why leave the fairy soil and the countless creatures in the lower realms alone, and have to work hard to find Jiangnan, which has been turned into loess slag countless years ago?
Now, all the truth can be said, Dabai!
It's not a coincidence, it's not a chance meeting, and it's not some muddled accident!
It is an unimaginable existence, going back the long river of time to the previous era that was extremely long ago, taking out the remnant soul of Jiangnan after his accidental death in the previous life, and putting him into the world together with the broken blue lantern. The time node when everything started-1 years ago, Shangyuan Universe, Daxia Court, Xunyang County, death row!
Then the problem is coming.
——Who the hell is this hairy?
