"The river of time..."

Chen Qian pondered these four unfamiliar yet vaguely familiar words, and shook his head blankly for a moment.

Time is not a new concept.

Since ancient times, people have perceived and proposed the concept of time.

There are countless famous poems and verses that encourage people to cherish time.

Since the revival of martial arts, time and space have often been mentioned together.

The only thing Shen Qian remembered was that, of all the theories, martial arts could only conquer space.

Time is not only one of the seven supreme laws of martial arts, but it is also known as the most elusive law.

Experts and scholars often raise questions, saying that "time" is just a pseudo-concept, that "time" does not exist in the world, and therefore there is no medium that can be controlled by martial artists.

This statement was once recognized by many powerful figures, and even Chen Qian himself was quite convinced of it.

When Jiangling King uttered those four words, Shen Qian keenly sensed something, but he didn't rush to ask. Even though he felt he was on the verge of annihilation, he simply waited quietly for Jiangling King to speak.

"Of all things in the world, time is the most magical."

The Prince of Jiangling sighed softly, "It can change everything, it can give birth to everything, and it can also destroy everything."

As he spoke, the Prince of Jiangling suddenly waved his hand, as if a gentle breeze had brushed past Shen Qian's body. Accompanied by a brief dizziness, Shen Qian was startled.

His injuries hadn't been healed, but something was different; they seemed less severe than before.

"Your physical condition has returned to what it was ten minutes ago."

The Prince of Jiangling gave his answer.

Shen Qian looked on with a skeptical expression.

Clearly, the Prince of Jiangling was telling him that time had just changed, but in Shen Qian's opinion, if the Prince of Jiangling had only used some kind of treatment method, the final effect would probably be the same.

"What I left here is just a consciousness; I don't have many tricks up my sleeve."

The Prince of Jiangling raised his hand, and countless fine powders flew out with the wind.

What is that?

"A type of river snail that can barely hold a little bit of time is also a specialty of the 'River of Time,' but it becomes very fragile once it leaves that place."

The Prince of Jiangling explained with a smile.

Shen Qian listened, seemingly understanding but not quite. "Was it this river snail that healed my injuries just now?"

“That’s one way to understand it,” King Jiangling nodded.

"So...time really does exist?" Shen Qian asked subconsciously.

"certainly."

The Prince of Jiangling glanced at Shen Qian in surprise, then chuckled.

"Pay less attention to so-called expert opinions online. Even from the perspective of modern science, the universe was born from the Big Bang, and then entropy increased. If time does not exist, how do you define all changes?"

"Besides..."

King Jiangling then changed the subject, “When you one day reach a higher realm, you will also be able to sense the existence of the ‘River of Time.’ However, even top-level kings and nobles do not know exactly where it is.”

“That should not be a realm that ‘humans’ can touch.”

Finally, the Prince of Jiangling let out a faint sigh, but his voice was so soft that it seemed like an illusion.

"But you know that, don't you?"

Shen Qian recalled the method that the Prince of Jiangling had mentioned before, and a thought suddenly occurred to him.

"Me?" To everyone's surprise, the Prince of Jiangling shook his head. "I don't know either."

"You don't know?" Shen Qian was speechless for a moment. Then why have you been playing riddles with me for so long?

Even if the other party was the Prince of Jiangling, it would be difficult to stop Shen Qian from internally complaining at this critical moment of life and death.

"Although I don't know, someone once told me how to find it."

The Prince of Jiangling gave another mysterious smile.

"..."

Before sinking, he could only chuckle to match the King of Jiangling's dry humor.

The King of Jiangling suddenly stopped smiling and said, "Next, I will tell you how to find the River of Time."

Before sinking, he quickly composed himself and listened attentively.

"Time is above immortality," King Jiangling uttered slowly.

Shen Qian waited for a long time, but nothing came of it. He looked up in surprise, "That's it?"

“That’s all.” The Prince of Jiangling nodded. “These are those man’s exact words.”

Shen Qian frowned, feeling that this was just a pointless statement.

But he figured the King of Jiangling wouldn't make fun of him, so he pondered it carefully. If this was a riddle, then the key to solving it was obviously the word "immortal".

"What is immortality?" Shen Qian asked directly.

“Immortal is immortal.” King Jiangling smiled slightly.

"Um... Senior Prince Jiangling, could you say something I can understand?"

"cannot."

"Why?"

"Because I don't understand either."

"..."

Shen Qian decided to retract his previous thought.

The Prince of Jiangling must be making fun of him!

You're the first leader of the Nine Kings, how could you not understand?

"The seven supreme laws are life, death, light, darkness, soul, space, and time. Time is the only law that has never been controlled by anyone. Is it strange that I don't know it?"

However, the Prince of Jiangling seemed to have guessed what Shen Qian was thinking, and his calm expression carried a sense of self-righteousness.

He was speechless before he fell silent.

That's absolutely right.

"You don't have much time left, let's finish quickly. I've already told you the method, but knowing only how to activate it isn't enough."

The Prince of Jiangling quickly added, "Every word I'm about to say is very important, and you must remember it well."
