Chapter 246: Entering the Long River of Time
The royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty has a strict process for learning the way of time. First, learn the theory, then try to see the past, and then see the future. If you can see the past and the future proficiently, then teach the formula and learn how to enter the long river of time.
To enter the Long River of Time, one must be accompanied by an elder. For a novice cultivator, entering the Long River of Time alone is very dangerous. If something goes wrong, no trace of body will be left.
The mantra is the key to the long river of time. No one in history has been able to enter the long river of time directly without mastering the mantra.
Ji Kongkong was the first one.
Even Ji Zhi, who had double pupils, couldn't do this! Not to mention that Ji Huayu didn't expect this, even Jiang Li, the person involved, was shocked.
He only felt that the flow of time slowed down, and finally stopped completely. In the end, only Jiang Li and Ji Kongkong could move.
A crack appeared in front of them. Ji Kongkong, who had turned into a white fish, crawled in, and Jiang Li followed.
The long river flows from ancient times to the present and into the future. The river is filled with chaotic fog, the waves echo, hitting the shore with a rumbling sound, and the sky is gray, as if it has been like this since ancient times and will not change in the future.
"Is this... the long river of time?" Jiang Li was surprised. He had only heard Ji Zhi talk about this kind of scene in a boastful tone, but had never actually been there.
Ji Zhi said that when he reaches the tribulation period, he will be able to bring Jiang Li to the long river of time. Jiang Li always joked that it is better to rely on your daughter than on you.
Now we are really counting on it, but it’s too early.
Ji Kongkong hasn't even reached the foundation-building stage, but he can bring himself to the river of time. This is simply outrageous.
Jiang Li was standing on the river bank. Seeing Ji Kongkong about to jump into the river, he was so scared that he quickly grabbed her.
"Don't worry about your life. This is a long river of time. With your body, there will be nothing left after you go in!" Jiang Li sternly warned Ji Kongkong that if anything happened to Ji Kongkong, Ji Zhi would fight him to the death.
"Oh." Ji Kongkong was held obediently in Jiang Li's palm.
Both of them are novices. They are entering the River of Time for the first time. They have no experience and cannot act recklessly.
"Who is it? Disturbing our intimacy!" An impolite voice came from the river.
The strange thing is that even though there is the sound of rushing river all around, I can still hear this sound clearly.
Jiang Li saw two white fish in the river. One was scared away by his arrival. The other white fish, which he did not recognize but felt familiar, jumped out of the river and glared at the person coming from the shore.
"Let me see who is interrupting my good time. We are about to kiss, you know... Shit, it's Jiang Renhuang!"
When the angry Bai Yu saw Jiang Li, he was so scared that he almost lost his soul.
"You were able to find me in the river of time?! And you even deliberately scared my girlfriend away and broke us up! What a vicious heart!"
“???” Jiang Li was full of question marks.
"Are you Gu Jin Jian?" Jiang Li thought of the box left by Emperor Shun, and realized that the white fish in front of him with a bad tone was Emperor Shun, also known as Gu Jin Jian.
I just don't know how it turned from a fishbone sword into a fish.
Emperor Shun left the box and told him not to look for him, just because he disturbed his good deeds? Jiang Li felt inexplicably guilty for breaking up a couple.
While Jiang Li was thinking, he reached out to grab Gu Jin Jian. He didn't mean to take him back. After all, if he caught him, who would go back to the past to be Emperor Shun?
He wanted to ask Gu Jinjian something.
However, Gu Jinjian thought that Jiang Li was going to catch him, so he hurriedly swam downstream, which was the direction of the future. His girlfriend was scared by Jiang Li and swam towards the future.
However, just after he swam for a distance, he looked up and saw another Jiang Li standing on the shore.
There are two Jiang Li in the long river of time!
"How come you are also in the future!" Gu Jinjian turned around and swam back, swimming upstream, which represented the past.
Jiang Li was downstream, so it didn't dare go there anymore and would never see its girlfriend again.
"If Jiang Li hadn't appeared, nothing would have happened now!" Gu Jinjian said angrily.
Jiang Li was stunned for a moment when he heard Gu Jinjian's angry shout.
There will be me in the future? Does that mean I will also be in the long river of time in the future? Jiang Li looked towards the future, but the world of the long river of time was filled with chaos and fog, and he couldn't see the past and the future clearly.
"How to dispel the fog?" Jiang Li asked.
"Only creatures who are proficient in the ways of time can dispel the fog and see the past and the future."
"Uncle Jiang is not good at the way of time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to dispel the fog."
"The ancestors once said that there is no fog in the long river of time. These chaotic fogs are obstacles to the perception of outsiders. Creatures like them who were born in the long river of time cannot see the fog."
Ji Kongkong explained that she was not only better than Jiang Li in the art of time, but she also knew more about this subject than Jiang Li.
"I see."

"How far can you see?"
"See the past nine hours and the future three minutes."
The long river of time is very special. There is no concept of meters, miles, or kilometers. The length of time is used as the unit of distance.
Every drop of water in the river represents what happened in a certain area at a certain moment.
Jiang Li squatted down and observed the water droplets curiously. He saw the "present" scene: Ji Zhi was arguing with several ministers, Bai Hongtu was playing cards with Yi Qi Hua San Qing, Mu Tongling was in love with Gu tribe leader Ayisu, Zhang Konghu was sleeping soundly...
"Only about Kyushu?"
"Because this is the long river of time in Jiuzhou." Ji Kongkong pointed at a hazy wall behind Jiang Li with his fish tail, "If you pass through this wall, you can reach the long river of time in other worlds."
"But I don't know how to get through. Father never taught me."
Jiang Li walked over, tried to push it, and felt that he could push it through.
As soon as he pushed, Ji Kongkong stopped him: "Uncle Jiang, don't do this. Father said that we know very little about the long river of time and cannot act rashly. If we are not careful here, it will cause disorder in time and space, and disorder in yin and yang!"
Jiang Li quickly gave up the idea of going to another long river of time.
Jiang Li took Ji Kongkong to the time nine hours ago, squatted down, and saw the scene "nine hours ago": Ji Zhi visited the Tianyuan Dynasty, Bai Hongtu turned beans into soldiers and played Cuju, Mu Tongling pulled out the magic monks from the big and small Wu Kingdoms, and Zhang Konghu was snoring...
“I always feel like there’s something that hasn’t changed.”
"Can you see the distance from eighteen hours ago from here?"
Ji Kongkong shook his head: "Even if I move, I can only see the distance from 'nine hours ago' to now, and from now to 'three minutes in the future'. If I change my position, I can see a more distant past. Wouldn't Father be able to see things that happened a thousand or ten thousand years ago?"
Jiang Li was about to nod in agreement, but a question came to his mind: "That's not right. You know the way of time and can see what happened nine hours ago. I don't know anything, so how can I see what happened nine hours ago?"
Ji Kongkong was also stunned and muttered softly, "That's right, Father said that how far you can see is how far you can walk. If you walk beyond your ability, you won't be able to take a single step forward. Uncle Jiang, you are not proficient in the way of time, so you should only stay where you are and cannot go to the past or the future."
Ji Kongkong said, jumping to an earlier time in the past, but was blocked by an invisible force and bounced back into Jiang Li's palm: "Just like this."
Jiang Li left Ji Kongkong where he was and walked forward. He found that there was indeed an invisible force blocking his way. However, this force was too weak, almost the same as air resistance. If Ji Kongkong hadn't reminded him, he would not have been able to detect it at all.
He walked into the past and saw what happened ten hours and eleven hours ago.
